Chapter 1587 Satellite
It is not easy to rule a huge country.
There are many great empires in history, and there are many dynasties with vast territory in the flower planters. However, these dynasties have faced a big problem from the beginning of their establishment how to conduct efficient and timely information communication.
If communications cannot keep up, don't expect effective rule on the territory.
Zhou Qingfeng's Aurora Legion is also facing this problem at present. When he was in Havana, Cuba, he had a small territory and a small population. He could still use a large number of radio stations to command various administrative agencies and troops. However, it would be too troublesome to rely on radio stations in Mexico, and he had to go to a higher-level one.
What do you want? Go to the satellite! Go to the ground receiving station! Go to the digital communication system!
Zhou Qingfeng plundered a large number of scientific researchers from the US "Kennedy" Space Center and Florida's aviation and aerospace industry. This group of people has always been the backbone of the Legion's scientific and technological strength, with a population of tens of thousands.
However, the space launch site in Cape Calaveral has long been blown into pits by nuclear bombs. It will be at least ten years later to restore the high-end aerospace industry. Now everyone is hungry, let’s talk about the meaningful job of farming and mining.
For example, Your Excellency David Lawrence in North America never thought of launching satellites in recent years. One has no money, two has no technology, three has no talent, what to launch? Shoot a ball!
And it is precisely because of this that when the Aurora Legion, which had just occupied Mexico City, announced that it would build a communication satellite, His Excellency Lawrence stayed in his office for a long time.
The New York Iron and Steel Brotherhood also gathered in the office of its boss, frowned and looked at the thin pages of the situation description and cooperation suggestions.
"This bastard really has the ability to launch a satellite?" His Excellency Lawrence sat behind his desk, hoping to hear some reliable analysis from the subordinates in front of him. But these people could say a few other words, and they would be speechless when they met those related to the Aurora Legion.
Herbert had just returned from the territory of the Aurora Legion. In the past few days, he wrote a thick message. He racked his brains to analyze the rise of the Aurora Legion from various perspectives such as politics, economy, culture, society, and military, and put forward several key points to curb it.
The result is now that the report is still being revised but can be almost thrown into the trash can. Because the Aurora Legion released its own satellite launch plan, and also glared at the Brotherhood of Steel. I want to conduct satellite communications. Do you want to play together?
Of course I want to!
Zhou Qingfeng has just faced a huge country, and he has not yet understood and felt how difficult it is to rule such a country. His Excellency Lawrence and his men have been facing a series of troubles for two years, and all kinds of pain surround them, and communication inconvenience is the top priority.
In the past, a mobile phone could contact the whole world. Now, most people could only obtain a small amount of information within a range of 100 meters around them, so don’t count on anything else. This huge gap has caused the efficiency of social development to subside orders of magnitude.
If there is satellite communication, the situation will be greatly improved!
"Herbert, tell me." Boss Lawrence saw that there was no one in front of him, and could only name the Herbert who had just been to Merida City and met Zhou Qingfeng himself.
According to Herbert's original intention, he wanted to impose trade sanctions on the Aurora Legion. He was born in the Mormon Church and entered Lawrence through the exchange of talents and officials during the cooperation between the Brotherhood and the Mormon Church in the New York. He had long wanted to give a sense of presence on the Aurora Legion, but he had been unhappy.
This time when he returned from the territory of the Aurora Legion, Herbert deepened his vigilance and hostility towards Zhou Qingfeng and the Aurora Legion. Various plans to curb opponents emerged in his heart.
But now when Lawrence asked, Herbert thought about it for a long time and said, "I think the Aurora Legion may really be able to do it."
David Lawrence waited for the other party to continue...
"The Aurora Legion was able to launch long-range ballistic missiles before, and they also controlled a very complete group of aerospace professionals. As long as they have satellites and rockets, they can still launch them. As for where the satellites and rockets come from...?"
Herbert paused again and continued: "We should consider the connection between Victor Hugo and his country on the other side of the earth. Because from the analysis of the situation I have seen at present, he undoubtedly has a fairly smooth channel of transportation with his country."
Everyone's life was sad after the catastrophe, no one thought too far, and his eyes were only in front of him. Zhou Qingfeng's current strength showed that people could not help but make many guesses about him. The result that could be guessed was nothing more than another more powerful force supporting him.
"I suggest that we join the Aurora Legion's satellite launch plan. After all, good communication is too important to our development." Herbert also vomited blood when he said this, because there is no way to impose sanctions on the Aurora Legion.
For example, the Aurora Legion especially likes the "Kirov" airship. This transport tool that can carry 300 tons of weight in the sky and is relatively cheap and cost-effective is really useful. It can carry out point-to-point direct transportation in the land and field without picking up the site and is extremely efficient.
Many of the key components of the "Kirov" airship are produced by the New York Brotherhood, and Herbert is trying to export this product.
There are many similar products, and the heavy industry in North America is well preserved, otherwise there would not be a super military force that dominated the world before the catastrophe. In the past, the Aurora Legion was extremely eager for this type of product, but could only trade and exchange some agricultural products with light industrial products.
But the Aurora Legion is now going to build satellites, which has caused some reversals.
With Herbert taking the lead, other senior executives of the New York Brotherhood began to speak. They just changed Herbert's arguments to make a fancy and repeated. At the end, Lawrence himself sighed, "This Victor, every time he wants to mess with him, why are there so many trump cards in his hand?"
Everyone was speechless...
"Herbert, you can go to Mexico City again and bring a group of satellite personnel to have a good talk with the Aurora Legion. We are interested in joining his satellite launch plan and we can make some necessary concessions for this."
David Lawrence was also decisive and became very proactive after confirming that he had no other way. However, Herbert shook up after hearing this and squeezed out a sentence for a long time: "His Excellency Lawrence, the Aurora Legion is afraid that I don't want me to go."
"Why?" David Lawrence was puzzled.
"Their cooperation inquiries clearly require us to send 'close and close friends to discuss', and I'm afraid I don't meet the requirements, and it's useless to go there." Herbert rolled his eyes as he said this, cursing Victor Hugo ten thousand times.
Boss Lawrence grabbed a few pieces of paper that he had just put down, and indeed saw the relevant words on the last page. 'Close Friends'? Isn't this what he meant...
