Chapter 160: The Goal Is the Stars and the Sea (End of Volume 7)
It has to be said that popularizing knowledge of astronomy and geography to the masses without foundation is a very difficult task.
Xu Yi talked eloquently on the stage for a long time, but the reporters and the ordinary people watching all looked dull and confused, and they didn't seem to understand it.
Of course, Xu Yi didn't expect them to understand now. The reason why he said so many things was just to give these people a basic concept.
After half an hour, Xu Yi stopped his explanation.
The audience was silent for a while, and the reporter of "Bangta Daily" suddenly stood up.
"President Xu, you..."
As soon as he opened his mouth, he closed his mouth again, looking hesitant.
Xu Yi smiled and nodded at him: "If you don't understand anything, just ask."
The reporter hesitated for a while, then shook his head lightly, as if he had made up his mind, and asked, "President Xu, you said that we are standing on a planet, and the sun above us is also a star." A bigger planet, and the planet under our feet should be revolving around the sun, and the stars in the night sky at night are also huge fireballs like the sun. Although I can’t understand these things, I think you said It's quite reasonable. It's just... but where did you know these things?"
This question instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the audience.
Yes, although what Xu Yi said just now sounded very powerful, it opened everyone's eyes and realized that the world he was in was such a magical and colorful world, but Xu Yi was How do you know?
"Would you believe me if I said that I obtained an ancient inheritance and knowledge by accident?" Xu Yi asked with a smile.
The reporter from "Bonta Daily" and other reporters in the audience, as well as ordinary civilians around, all looked at Xu Yi blankly, with expressions of "you're kidding me".
If there is any ancient inheritance, it is impossible that there is not even a trace of it on the Sains Continent before.
Besides, why did Xu Yi never mention it before, but why did he say it in one breath this time?
Xu Yi didn't expect other people to believe his explanation at all, and he didn't wait for anyone to ask. He continued directly: "I'm sorry that I can't disclose how I obtained this knowledge, but I can assure you that this knowledge is true. It can stand the test."
Everyone in the audience looked at each other, and no one raised any objections.
With Xu Yi's current status, there was no need for him to make such a joke.
And his description is indeed very attractive, so that people's view of the whole world has completely changed.
If this world is really as vast as Xu Yi said, there is even a universe above their heads that cannot see the edge at all. How exciting this must be.
"President Xu, what does your sudden mention of these things have to do with the goal you just mentioned?" A reporter suddenly asked.
After everyone was stunned for a moment, they immediately reacted.
That's right, Xu Yidong was talking nonsense for a long time, but what does this have to do with the topic he said?
"Of course it does." Xu Yi smiled. "Think about it, everyone. Twenty years ago, people's understanding of this world was only on the Sainz continent, and they believed that the world was just an endless sea apart from the Sainz continent. But since our new After the ocean-going fleet of the Flying Chamber of Commerce proved that the rumored other continents did exist, people discovered that this world is much bigger than we imagined."
"In the next step, I will prove to everyone that there is indeed a sphere under our feet, and there are several continents on this sphere, and different lives and civilizations exist on each continent."
"When we have enough understanding of the planet under our feet, what I want to do next is to lead everyone to understand the starry sky above. I want everyone to know that beyond the planet under our feet , and there is an infinitely wider world waiting for us to explore.”
Everyone followed Xu Yi and raised their eyes to the sky. But he could only see the blue sky due to the clear weather, let alone the endless universe hidden behind the sky that Xu Yi mentioned, he couldn't even see a single star.
The reporters of the major newspapers found that they could no longer keep up with Xu Yi's train of thought.
He talked for a long time. What exactly do you want to say?
Xu Yi looked up at the sky again for a while, then slowly lowered his head, looked at the thousands of journalists from major newspapers in the audience, at the confused ordinary civilians beside him, at the Heinze, who was looking at him in surprise, took a deep breath. Spread your hands.
"The world is so big, but we still have to squeeze into this small place on the Sains Continent, working so hard for such a small profit, do you think... it makes sense?"
The reporters in the audience were stunned for a while, and all laughed wryly.
I have to admit that the world Xu Yi described is beautiful, and his questioning is also very powerful, but for the people on the Sainz Continent, especially those human rulers who control most of the resources on the Sainz Continent To us, what Xu Yi said is meaningless.
That's right, this world doesn't only have the Sainz continent, or even the planet under their feet, but what does it matter to them?
What they can currently control is the resources on Sainz Continent.
With the technology of humans on the Sainz Continent, except for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, no other country or organization can go to that fabled New Continent, so how to obtain the resources on that Continent?
Xu Yi on the stage smiled, his expression was full of understanding.
"In order for people on the continent of Sainz to recognize the true face of the planet under our feet, I am here to announce one thing. After completing the scheduled voyage around the world, our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will open to all countries and all organizations Fully open the technology related to magic ships with individuals. Our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce invites everyone to go to the new continent on this planet, and invites everyone to explore the planet under our feet.”
The noise in the audience instantly fell silent, and the entire city square became dead silent in an instant.
However, this dead silence lasted only a few seconds, and then a deafening noise broke out.
The civilians who were watching did not react much, but the reporters of the major newspapers all showed extremely shocked expressions.
If it is said that among the various technologies owned by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the technology related to military magic machinery that other countries and organizations are most concerned about and eager to obtain must be the technology related to magic ships.
When the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce announced that it had discovered a new continent, the entire Sains Continent was shocked.
Everyone hopes to be able to board the New World to find out. However, except for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, no one owns a ship that can be used for ocean voyages, so everyone can only look at the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to explore and develop.
Now that Xu Yi actually announced that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will disclose the technology related to magic ships, doesn't that mean that other countries, organizations, and even individuals outside of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce can also have the opportunity to organize ocean-going fleets and land on another continent?
This press conference has been held until now, and it can be said that a truly big news finally broke out. After the initial shock, all the reporters immediately raised their hands, or simply stood up and asked questions directly.
Xu Yi smiled and dealt with various questions raised by these reporters about the technology related to the open magic ship, while silently complaining in his heart.
Fortunately, I had done the foreshadowing for a long time, and expressed my feelings for a long time. In the end, these guys are still completely ignorant. They are not interested in the new world they describe, but they are so enthusiastic about the technology that will be released soon.
But it can't be their fault, after all, the people in the audience didn't come from time travel like Xu Yi, and they have a whole set of knowledge brought by the earth.
Their understanding of this world was only limited to the small Sainz continent before the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce appeared.
The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce was able to discover that the New World did exist, which was already a great shock to them.
It is obviously too difficult for them to immediately accept the new world view that Xu Yi instilled in them.
Xu Yi was not too disappointed.
The reporters in the audience are just the megaphones he specially found, responsible for transmitting the ideas he said today.
As long as people all over the continent know what Xu Yi said and slowly accept it, then half of Xu Yi's goal today will be achieved.
I believe that after knowing what Xu Yi said, there will eventually be some far-sighted people in Sainz Continent who will understand Xu Yi's intentions and work hard according to Xu Yi's expectations.
After the reporters asked about the same amount of questions about the technology transfer of magic ships, and the audience gradually returned to silence, Xu Yi took a glance, smiled and said, "Everyone, I think that since I have talked to you so much, Everyone must have understood a little bit, what is our goal?"
The reporters looked at each other with a hint of uncertainty in their expressions.
They might be able to guess what Xu Yi wanted to say, but none of them really believed it.
"Our goal is actually very simple, and that is the sea of stars above our heads!" Xu Yi pointed to the sky with one finger, speaking loudly. "Right now, we can only be confined to the planet under our feet, but one day, we will break through the sky above our heads and enter the boundless universe!"
The reporters stared blankly at Xu Yi, not knowing how to react.
It is said that President Xu of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is a lunatic, but no matter how crazy a guy is, he will not say such a completely unrealistic goal like him, right?
Break through the sky above? Into the boundless universe?
I don't know how far the sky is from me, so Xu Yi is even less far from the goal he said...
