Chapter 503 I Knew You Wouldn’t Admit It
After the meeting, Hu Shucheng and Fan Liangzhong found Xu You together and returned to the office with Xu You.
"Old Xu, I never thought you could finish so much work in one night. I think your inference, even if it's not 100% correct, is probably right."
"Yes, I just thought about it carefully, and this is basically the reason. They started the moon landing plan several months in advance, and it is inevitable that the equipment testing will not be thorough. In addition, if they encounter any extreme conditions, it is not impossible for the fuel chamber to leak."
At this time, Xu You suddenly had a new idea.
"Chief Engineer Fan, Lao Hu, can the Institute of Aerospace help me contact someone at Sam's Space Agency?"
When they heard Xu You's question, Fan Liangzhong and Hu Shucheng were a little surprised.
"Why, Lao Xu, do you want to talk to them?"
"If there's a chance, we can have a chat. After all, Sam's achievements in the aerospace field are unique in the world, and he has the most cutting-edge technology. If we can have a chat with them, it will definitely be good for us."
Even though many unpleasant things had happened in the past, and even endangered Xu You's life, Xu You had no intention of completely closing the door to communication with Sam.
There are no absolute enemies or absolute friends between countries, and interests always come first.
"Professor Xu, do you want to tell them your theory about the accident?"
"Yes, I want to see how they will react. In fact, doing this will not be of any substantial help to them. If they have already determined the cause of the accident, they will only sigh at our strong analytical ability. If they have not yet determined the cause of the accident, they will not immediately determine the cause because of what I say."
"That's true. If we do this, we can not only show our strength, but also possibly win a favor. As for whether they will appreciate it or not, that is not something we can control."
"That's right. We don't have to count on them. This is just a piece of cake . We just need to continue at our own pace. With this blow, their progress in the moon landing plan may be overtaken by us."
Afterwards, Xu You found the leaders of the Academy of Aerospace and explained his request.
After learning about Xu You’s idea, the Academy of Aerospace said it would contact SAM Space Agency to see if they were willing to communicate.
"What? Xu You wants to communicate with us? What does he want to do?"
After receiving this news, Director Williams frowned, obviously not wanting to accept the invitation.
Yesterday's rocket launch had just failed, and Xu You suddenly wanted to contact them at this time, which was obviously related to this incident.
Williams knew that Xu You was secretly involved in Rabbit's research in the aerospace field.
Before, Sam had imposed various bans on Xu You many times.
Maybe Xu You just wanted to take this opportunity to mock Sam Space Agency.
At this moment, someone suddenly said:
"Chief Williams, just let me talk to him."
Williams looked up and saw that it was Johnson who was speaking.
Johnson is the commander of SAM Space Agency and is also responsible for commanding the rocket launch.
Putting other factors aside, Johnson has always admired Xu You's talent.
"Why, Johnson, do you want to humiliate yourself?"
"Director Williams, I don't think Xu You meant to mock us. If he can really provide some valuable information, then our communication will be meaningful."
Williams sighed and said helplessly:
"Okay, then you will be responsible for communicating with Xu You. But remember, don't reveal any real information about our accident. As for the rest, it's up to you."
"Understood, Chief Williams."
…
Xu You, who was working in his office, suddenly heard a knock on the door.
"Come in."
"Professor Xu, Sam Space Agency has agreed to communicate with you. The time is set for half an hour later. Is your side available?"
"No problem, I'll be there in a minute."
After learning that SAM Space Agency accepted his exchange invitation, Xu You felt relatively calm.
After all, whether they agree or not, it will not affect Xu You's work.
Xu You first calmly completed the unfinished work in his hands, and only went to the room mentioned by the staff ten minutes before the start time.
"Professor Xu, do you need an interpreter?"
Xu You shook his head and said, "No, my English is still fine."
It is naturally unrealistic to expect them to speak Chinese. Although Xu You hardly speaks English in normal times, he has already mastered the language completely during his university years.
There will be no obstacles in communicating with foreigners.
When the time came, the two sides connected their communication signals and began the exchange.
"Hello, I'm Xu You."
"Hello, I'm the commander of Sam's space agency, Johnson."
Xu You was quite satisfied when he heard that it was Johnson on the other end of the phone.
Compared with the director of Sam Space Agency, the commander may have a more detailed understanding of the technical part.
After a few simple pleasantries, Xu You got into the main topic of the conversation.
"We are all very sorry about the failure of the rocket launch yesterday. Commander Johnson, have you found out the cause of the accident?"
Johnson was prepared for this question and answered quickly:
"This incident was caused by an extremely rare external force majeure, not a problem with the rocket itself. We will postpone the launch and reschedule it. Professor Xu You, please don't worry."
"As expected, you still refuse to tell the truth." Xu Youxin said.
Xu You knew very well that he would not get anything out of them if he asked them directly.
"Commander Johnson, I will send a file to your email address later , please check it. In addition, I would like to remind Commander Johnson that the moon landing is a major project and we must not rush it. Before the official launch, we still need to do detailed tests."
"Thank you Professor Xu You for the reminder. We look forward to our astronauts meeting on the moon."
After finishing his brief conversation with Xu You, Johnson quickly opened his email.
Johnson knew that this excuse of his might not be able to be hidden from Xu You.
As for what Xu You will send to his mailbox, Johnson is not sure.
It wasn't until Johnson opened the attachment in his email that his expression changed drastically.
