Chapter 220, Huashan
In the outer space of the earth, huge space buildings stand quietly in the void, and the space planes coming and going are like hardworking bees working hard between space farms, space solar power plants, and space stations.
Among the many huge space buildings, Fuyun Group's "Sky City" is very dazzling, because even now, when there are more and more huge buildings in space, "Sky City" is still the largest man-made space building in space in terms of volume and mass.
After the vigorous construction of Fuyun Group in recent years, the "Sky City" has been completed at this time. It has a huge space port, which provides a harbor for countless space planes and spacecraft in space; the living area with complete living facilities and comfortable living is here, and there are always thousands of people here to enjoy every second of life in space.
The last completed area is the space factory area. The space factory area is the core area of the "Sky City". It is a very large sky factory that can produce various series of spacecraft for mining asteroids. The "Dumbo" spacecraft, which is the hottest selling now and is also sought after by many capitalists in China, is the flagship product of this space factory.
At this time, in the space factory, Li Fuzheng, wearing a space suit, accompanied Wang Aiguo, the current head of China's space field, to inspect the entire space factory, because Fuyun Group was about to receive a very sacred mission to build China's first space battleship "Huashan".
After the demonstration of many well-known Chinese scientists, the "Huashan" space battleship quickly entered the implementation stage. Of course, an important reason is to have its own space force as soon as possible to prepare for the invasion of the Loen civilization that may appear at any time.
The planned "Huashan" space battleship is more than 10,000 meters, or 10 kilometers, and has a mass of more than 1 billion tons. It is definitely a well-deserved giant.
After a long period of demonstration and consideration, the Chinese official found that it seemed that only Fuyun Group had the ability to build such a huge space battleship.
On the one hand, it was because only Fuyun Group had experience in manufacturing large spaceships. The Dumbo spaceship used to mine asteroids and the upgraded version of the Dumbo spaceship, the Dumbo spaceship, which can be used to mine 50 million tons of asteroids, were both manufactured by Fuyun Group.
Although the Chinese government has also tried to build large spaceships, all of them have failed, because only Fuyun Group has mastered the technology of super-large plasma engines. In addition, Fuyun Group is the most advanced in the world in the design of large spaceships.
Another reason is that the Chinese government has discovered that although the Chinese government has mastered a lot of space buildings, all space constructions are not as comprehensive as Fuyun Group's "Sky City", and cannot be used to build a huge space battleship like "Huashan".
So in the end, there was no choice but to hand over the task of building the "Huashan" space battleship to Fuyun Group. As for other frigates, the Chinese government will find ways to build them. It can't be impossible to build them all the time, and there must be breakthroughs.
Regarding such a major historical task as building the "Huashan", Li Fu naturally shook his head repeatedly. Just kidding, Li Fu didn't want to do such a thing. It was his duty to build it well. If he didn't build it well, if he failed in a war in the future, then the responsibility might be pushed onto Li Fu's head.
Moreover, the "Huashan" space battleship is so huge that it will take a very long time. Li Fu estimated that even with China's current space power, and taking into account the future development speed, it would take at least 10 years to build this "Huashan" space battleship.
Apart from other things, the "Huashan" space battleship alone consumes up to 1 billion tons of steel, and the number of asteroids that need to be mined is unknown. Judging from the current market conditions for mining asteroids, it will take several years to obtain such a huge resource.
Moreover, from the perspective of Fuyun Group itself, building such a huge space battleship will squeeze out most of the manpower of Fuyun Group, seriously disrupting the company's established plans, and even Li Fu himself will have to spend most of his energy on building the "Huashan" for a long time in the future.
This is definitely something Li Fu does not want to see, because Li Fu also has his own plans, and there are still many high-techs that need Li Fu to take the lead in researching to further promote China's development in the space field.
Therefore, when Tang Yunshan found Li Fu and hoped that Fuyun Group could undertake the construction of "Huashan", Li Fu jumped up immediately like a cat whose tail was stepped on, shaking his head like a rattle.
However, Tang Yunshan personally went to Li Fu, obviously he was well prepared. In addition to promising that the Chinese government would cooperate with Fuyun Group, give people, things, policies, and whatever they wanted, he also determined that Fuyun Group would be the core and fully cooperate with Fuyun Group to build "Huashan".
Of course, Tang Yunshan also knew that for Li Fu, power, money, etc. were of no use, so he did not promise Li Fu any special power or benefits, etc., but more to appeal to his emotions and reason.
The difficulties faced by China and the fact that the people on Earth may face invasion by the Loen civilization or other alien civilizations at any time are laid out. If the Chinese government builds it itself, the "Huashan" is likely to take longer, perhaps twenty or thirty years.
More importantly, Tang Yunshan is worried that if he retires, it is still unknown whether the next leader will continue to fully support the construction of the "Huashan", because there are many dissatisfactions in China with the policies promoted by Tang Yunshan, such as the compulsory birth policy, which is a topic that has been repeatedly complained about.
If the "Huashan" is abandoned halfway because of the huge cost and time, it will be very unfavorable for China and the entire earthlings. Once the Loen civilization invades the solar system, the earth will have no power to fight back.
So in the end, Li Fu took on this task. With Fuyun Group as the core, the entire China will focus on building a huge fleet of space battleships in the next few years.
For this reason, not only Fuyun Group needs to build the "Huashan" space battleship, but also several major heavy industry groups of China have received the task, each of which has to build one or two escort battleships. As for other Chinese official military enterprises, they have received the task of building more than 100,000 space fighters and space combat spacecraft.
Even the Chinese military has a heavy task, because it is not only necessary to explore the war mode in space, but more importantly, it is necessary to train more than one million space warriors who can adapt to space wars.
These space warriors are basically able to skillfully operate space fighters and space combat spacecrafts. They will be the warriors who defend the confidence and defend China in the future. They are not like the big soldiers on the earth in the past, who charge with a gun. Every space warrior, apart from other things, requires at least a bachelor's degree or above in cultural quality, and each one must meet the standard of a level 5 astronaut.
It can be said that building a "Huashan" space battleship is not a difficult task. The real difficulty is to build a large army that can be used for space wars around the "Huashan" space battleship, which requires the whole Chinese nation to complete.
Time waits for no one. Since knowing the time and space currents between star systems, the top leaders of China are worried that they will be invaded by alien civilizations at any time, so they must have their own powerful cosmic power; on the other hand, the top leaders of China are actually ambitious and want to start the great voyage of the interstellar universe era.
On the one hand, the policy of compulsory birth is enforced, and they want to greatly increase their population, while vigorously promoting education and improving the quality of the population; on the other hand, they are anxious to build powerful space battleships and build a huge space army.
All this is not just to resist the alien civilization that may invade, but more importantly, it is also to lay the foundation for the future, and it is also ambitious to invade other star systems, occupy more star systems and life planets, and start the great voyage of the interstellar era.
Li Fu was very clear about this and saw it very clearly. At Tang Yunshan's level, what he wanted to do was to leave a name in history. He wanted to write his name permanently into the history textbooks of China, and even more wanted to write his name into the textbooks of human history.
So despite the strong opposition from all over the country, he still pushed forward with all his strength. On the one hand, he wanted to push China to the interstellar civilization, and on the other hand, he hoped that the great voyages in the interstellar era could be opened by the Chinese.
Increasing the population, improving the quality of the population, vigorously developing space military power, building space battleships, and creating a space army, Tang Yunshan pushed China step by step towards the powerful country in his heart. He used to be the person in charge of China's space field. He knew that there were infinite possibilities in the universe, the power of science and technology, and that this was the path that China must take in the future.
Of course, Tang Yunshan's approach also conforms to the trend of historical development and the fundamental interests of the Chinese people. Although countless young people scold Tang Yunshan, the older people who really see through him choose to support him. With Tang Yunshan in power, China's development in the field of space has leapt forward at an unprecedented speed in recent years. All this shows that China's trend towards cosmic civilization is unstoppable.
