The End of Technology

Dubonle can't remember the last time someone asked him if he had a brain. After all, few people can clearly remember what happened thirty or forty years ago.

But he didn't bother to worry about it at the moment.

In fact, he was really frightened by Ning Zi's idea at this moment, and an idea came to his mind at this moment...

Does the young man in front of me really want to be a god? !

Fortunately, as a mature boss, Dupontler quickly turned his thoughts to analyzing the pros and cons.

If Ning Zi's words came from his true thoughts, then the huge benefits contained in them would be astronomical for an ordinary person like him.

Think about it, if the transformation of the Martian environment is successful, it means that humans will have a habitable planet that can accommodate at least two billion people. Not to mention that this is a complete planet, and it is a planet that has existed for tens of billions of years, so it must be rich in mineral deposits.

Even if Dupont doesn't care about these things, then a blank enclave planet will become a large market with a population of two billion after human colonization is completed. Not to mention that humans need to immigrate, build cities, reclaim farmland, build roads, various huge infrastructure projects, industrial and agricultural systems, and financial markets...

Ning Zi doesn't care about the profit of a planet, but he really does. Not only did he care, but he also roughly calculated the huge rate of return in an instant, and then suddenly understood the reason why Nissen Mountbatten was so determined.

If what Ning Zi said is true...

Well, he was leaning towards what Ning Zi said was true.

Because as the young man said just now, he really doesn't care about worldly material comforts. These are all supported by intelligence.

A complete trillionaire, the most expensive set of clothes is less than a thousand dollars. His daily whereabouts are almost between school, laboratory and home. Not only does he already have a wife, but he also has only one. . Even the pet he keeps is a Chinese garden cat.

The most puzzling thing is that for such a family with a huge amount of private property, the biggest monthly expense is cat food and canned cats, which costs about more than 2,000 yuan...

The only luxury in life is probably having an unofficial appointment with a top chef from China, who is said to be a top chef from China, to book the Ningyuan Canteen.

Such a hobby seemed so simple to Dupont that it was outrageous.

Although he didn't want to admit it, Dupont Le felt that no matter what such a person said, he could believe it, at least until he broke his promise.

If that's the case, there's a lot that can be traded.

The benefits of a livable planet are enough to drive countless people crazy.

As for whether it can really be realized, this is a gambling investment.

For those who stand at the top of the pyramid, they have experienced this kind of gambling in life a lot. All that needs to be weighed is whether the cost of serving it is affordable.

Not to mention that this time the situation was special, and the benefits were even prepared before being served.

That's a lifespan of several decades...

It may be slow to say, but this weighing of pros and cons took only a few seconds at most in Dupont's mind, and he had the answer.

This time, it's really worth the gamble.

If the bet is right, the family will continue to last for centuries, and he can even witness the Dupont Le family becoming glorious again. If the bet is lost... at least he can enjoy the life of a billionaire for decades more.

As for the rest...

At this point, who will care about anything else?

History has proven countless times that everyone in this world takes turns to be the boss. After long periods of separation, they must unite, and when they flourish, they will decline. These are just historical laws. Not to mention that this time he is standing for the advancement of human civilization as a whole...

more importantly

Yes, after making up his mind, the old gentleman had habitually started to find reasons for his decision in his mind. The ancestral craftsmanship of occupying the moral high ground cannot be lost at any time.

So when he spoke again, Mr. Dupont was obviously much calmer, even though he had just been scolded for being brainless.

"I understand, Academician Ning, I already have a preliminary idea. I have to say that my friends and I are also very interested in the plan to transform the planet. I think this long-term plan is almost ready-made. If possible , you can draw up a list of resources needed for the plan to transform the planet, and I will use, including but not limited to, the negligible influence and financial resources to help you obtain sufficient required resources at the lowest cost to support the expansion of this magnificent civilization. Plan, what do you think?”

Ning Zi glanced at the old man next to him and smiled: "Ha, Mr. Dupont, I'm sorry for what I said just now. Not only do you have a brain, you also have a quick mind. In other words, you can retrieve it very quickly. From my perspective To me, this idea is very good and eye-opening. If you can do it, the connection between us will indeed be very close in the future.

Of course, I am a person who believes that if you give something, you will get something. If the future cooperation is successful and this project is successful, I can help you and your friends tailor three sets of planet transformation plans. And you don’t have to worry about not being able to find a suitable star. I can help you list the specific indicators that can be used to transform the planet, and I can also guide your designated scholars step by step on how to choose a suitable star.

Well, this commitment of mine can be written into any publicized cooperation agreement. To ensure that I will not go back on my promise to you today under any circumstances. Sure enough, some people's success is not a fluke. I wish us a happy cooperation in advance. "

Dupont Le nodded and said, "I believe we will have a happy cooperation."

Ning Zi smiled and nodded: "We have initially reached a verbal agreement. According to your tradition, we should celebrate, but unfortunately there is nothing here. Fortunately, I have prepared another way to celebrate, um... the time is almost up, you see, That should be your hometown."

As he spoke, Ning Zi pointed at the blue planet at his feet.

I have to say that the earth from this perspective is indeed very charming. It is suspended there quietly, with a breathtaking beauty.

Just as Ning Zi said, the Wu Gang had already arrived in the sky near North America at this time. If you study geography well, you can already distinguish the appearance of that continent. The only pity is that because of the curvature of the sphere, only the coastline of the North American continent can be seen.

"Well... I can recognize the location of Washington State. I was born in Washington. That should be Washington." Dupont Le nodded in agreement.

Elite education is no joke. There are many people in the Western world who cannot read maps, and even more people do not know much about geography. But they are definitely not the ones at the top.

At that moment, a gentle reminder came from the room: "Academician Ning, reporter Cao, who made an appointment with you for a simple interview, is here."

…

When Cao Zhe led the photographer into the watchtower, they were both shocked.

"If you like this picture, you can install a set of this kind of equipment at home in the future, and then bind it to the Wu Gang and synchronize the picture through satellite transmission. I believe you will get bored of it in a few days." Ning Zi smiled. Said something.

In fact, the charm of technology is like this. It can always shock and move people beyond the first sight. The shock now is just because it is difficult to see such a picture. Of course, it will be like that after getting used to it.

Then, before the two of them could express their opinions, he introduced again: "By the way, let me introduce you, this is Mr. Dupont Le. Mr. Dupont Le, this is NBC reporter Cao Zhe who is responsible for today's live broadcast. I believe you will also become friends."

"Hello, Mr. Dupont!" This was definitely an unexpected surprise for Cao Zhe, and he greeted him quickly.

Dupont Le nodded kindly towards the young reporter.

Now that he has decided to cooperate, DuPontle has relaxed his mind.

He knew that Ning Zi had some careful thoughts in arranging short interviews, or even live broadcasts of interviews. It was just to make the chain more intuitive, which might make him more stressed, but so what? Anyway, the decision has been made.

As Ning Zi said, he is not the old man who is about to retire in his self-effacing tone.

The pressure after being tied up is not unbearable.

His friends certainly knew how to explain it to him. It was obvious that the old man still underestimated Ning Zi's imagination.

…

"Academician Ning, can we start? Is Mr. Dupont with you?"

After the greetings, Cao Zhe said excitedly.

Everything that happened today was amazing to him.

Not only was he invited to participate in the live broadcast of the launch of the Wu Gang today, but he tentatively submitted a request to briefly interview Ning Jie today, and the application was actually approved.

This is definitely a surprise.

You must know that he specifically asked Chen Luo for this matter.

As a student appointed by Ning Zi, this guy didn't dare to agree to him. So Cao Zhe thought about it for a while with the intention of completing the task, but who would have thought that he succeeded.

Although it is late at night in North America at this time, the ratings may not be very high. But no matter what, he may be the only reporter who can talk to Ning Zi face-to-face on this special day. Not only that, but today he seems to be giving one-for-one, and he is on a boss-level mission with a man who sticks to his word.

For his profession, this is a qualification that he can brag about. Maybe he can become a famous reporter with this interview.

"Well, I'm ready. I think Mr. Dubonle wouldn't mind joining me for this little interview, right?"

Dupontler nodded implicitly again.

Although he didn't mind reaching a clear-cut cooperative relationship with Ning Zi, he didn't want to be so obvious in front of the camera.

"OK!"

Cao Zhe gestured goodbye to the cameraman, indicating that everything was ready. After switching the signal, he started his performance: "Dear audience friends, I am honored to be invited to the watchtower of the Wu Gang. Everyone It can be seen that you can look out at the entire space with almost no blind spots. According to reports, this is also a form of holographic display technology.

And on this special day and place today, we are also allowed to interview the designer of mankind’s first spaceship, the winner of many awards such as Fields and Nobel Prizes, Academician Ning Ju and our DuPont Mr. Le. Now we will ask Academician Ning Ju about some issues. "

"Academician Ning, we all really want to know..."

"Well, actually I think today can be a special interview format. I have read the questions you submitted and there are not many new ideas. As a gift or celebration, I hope to celebrate this in a newer and more beautiful way. Special day.”

"Um...then please tell me."

Cao Zhe's mind was a little confused. This rhythm seemed a little wrong. Not what he's good at.

It was obvious that the old man next to Ning Zi was much more sensitive, and his expression had changed from relaxed to serious.

"We can first give you a shot of the earth under our feet. I believe everyone can already recognize that we are above a beautiful continent. This is also the hometown of Mr. Dupont. Although the clouds are thicker in some areas, it still cannot cover up the beauty of this land. good.

This makes me want to have an interaction with Mr. Dubonle across half the world under the witness of NBC to show our friendship. I also believe that this will be a beautiful conversation that will go down in history. So Mr. Dubonle, do you agree? "

Ning Zi turned her head sideways, with a gentle, spring-like smile on her handsome face.

"Sounds like fun, but can I know the rules of this interaction first?"

"It's actually very simple. The Wu Gang happens to have high-precision light guide equipment. This also means that we can emit a harmless light from the Wu Gang to illuminate a certain building for light interaction. We hope that when our light shines, That building can turn off the lights for one minute to respond tacitly. It's up to you to choose which building to illuminate. I believe you are also interested in this very atmospheric interactive method, right?"

Suddenly, Cao Zhe suddenly felt that something was not right.

But this time it was not his journalistic sensitivity that relied on him, but his ability to observe what was happening.

He could clearly see that after Ning Jie finished speaking, Mr. Dupont's expression became more serious, even solemn.

"Um……"

"Good interaction."

“So can you choose one of my properties in Washington?”

"Of course, Mr. Dubonle, according to the rules, any building will do. But I thought you could have a more creative choice. After all, there are many well-known and special buildings in this city to choose from. If it is just your manor, then You just need to provide your address so that we can locate it easily.

This will take some time. By the way, Reporter Cao, during the waiting time, can you contact your colleagues in Washington to go to the address given by Dupont Le to witness this very memorable interaction? "

"Uh... I'm calling." Cao Zhe was subconsciously trying to find the phone when he suddenly reacted: "Wait, no need, they should be watching the show now, I believe my colleagues have already done it Get ready, maybe they have already set off.”

"That's good..."

Ning Zi nodded, then looked at the old man beside him, smiled, and said: "Then Mr. Dupont, you can announce the address... It's a pity. You could have experienced what I feel like. In fact, not only is invincibility not Lonely, yet happy.”
