Chapter 553 We Must Take Action
"Of course I remember. I have been paying attention to this matter, including the recent academic conference held in Jijing, which is closely related to the interest rate hike of the Sam Federal Reserve."
Xu You knew that Lou Song was a smart man and could understand the connection between them.
"Xu You, I know the fundamental reason why Sam Fed raised interest rates."
"Um?"
Xu You was stunned when he heard this, and quickly asked Lou Song:
"Tell me about it!"
Immediately afterwards, Lou Song told Xu You all the information he had learned.
After listening to Lou Song's story, Xu You couldn't help but feel a chill on his back.
"Sam Space Agency...actually wants to restart the Apollo project?"
Xu You did not ask any questions about how Lou Song knew the information, because it was a tacit understanding between them that did not need to be explained.
Even so, this news still surprised Xu You very much.
"Yes, that's why Sam Federal Reserve suddenly raised interest rates so sharply. They want to use the world's money to help them build the Apollo spacecraft again."
Xu You quickly went over the whole thing from the beginning in his mind.
After careful consideration, Xu You determined that there was nothing wrong with this conclusion.
"They are so eager because we are ready to build our own scientific research base on the moon. Under the premise that the space launch system needs to be redesigned, replicating the Apollo project is undoubtedly a faster option."
According to Sam's way of doing things, what they want to do now is to achieve manned lunar landing again in the shortest possible time.
Relying on his own strategy, Xu You caused some impact on Sam's space agency's moon landing plan, but he was unable to completely stop Sam's moon landing plan.
Once Sam achieves manned lunar landing again, it will be necessary to take some action on our lunar research base plan.
"Damn it, why didn't I think of this at the beginning..."
At this time, Xu You felt a little guilty for not discovering this earlier.
Otherwise, Xu You could have taken more actions to curb the impact of this incident.
Fortunately, Xu You had a friend named Lou Song who reminded him of this matter in time.
"Lou Song, thank you for your timely reminder."
"Why should we be polite to each other? Besides, this is not just a matter between the two of us. It concerns the whole world. We absolutely cannot let them use the world's money to support their moon landing project."
If Sam was just developing the Space Launch System, that would be fine.
By raising interest rates, they will reap the wealth of the world, restart the expensive moon landing project of last century, and threaten our lunar scientific research base.
In the face of such behavior, we must take some countermeasures.
"Lou Song, what do you think about this matter?"
Xu You knew that Lou Song was not that interested in other things besides .
However, since Lou Song is the first person to know the news, he must have his own opinion on this matter.
"The first is to continue to curb the global status of the US dollar and increase the influence of the Chinese currency worldwide. On this point, we can't be too gentle, we must be tougher."
"Second, we must develop rapidly in science and technology and economy. We cannot say what the future will look like, but the strength of science and technology and economy will be helpful in curbing Sam and improving our own strength."
"The third is to research some powerful space weapons. It's not so easy to stop Sam from landing on the moon. In order to be able to deal with everything that may happen in the future, we must be prepared for the worst."
Lou Song doesn't like to analyze this kind of problem, but when he does, he is very thoughtful.
Smart people like Lou Song can do anything well as long as they want to do it.
"Well, besides telling jokes and cooking." Xu You thought.
"Okay, this is just my personal opinion. The final response method is up to you to decide." Lou Song said.
"Anyway, thank you for the information."
"By the way, don't say that I was the one who leaked this matter."
After all, Lou Song’s information did not come from formal channels. If you tell others that this was information provided by Lou Song, it would inevitably bring some unnecessary trouble to Lou Song.
"Don't worry, I won't mention you."
…
Shortly after Lou Song left, Xu You quickly reported the news to his superiors.
Xu You did not make a clear statement about the source of the news, but only said that based on his own inference, this conclusion is very likely.
Internally, this matter is also taken very seriously, because it is indeed something that can affect the world situation.
After analysis, everyone agreed that this possibility is indeed very high.
It was very unusual , and it happened just after we announced our plan to build a lunar research base.
There may be a close connection between the two things.
After discussion, a series of countermeasures were determined internally.
Among them, there are two main things that Xu You needs to be responsible for.
The first thing is to accelerate the research on controlled nuclear fusion projects.
If we successfully develop commercial controlled nuclear fusion, we will naturally become the world's energy center.
It is only natural to break the dominant position of Mi Yuan.
The second thing is to develop powerful space weapons.
We can't yet say why Sam is so eager to return to the moon.
However, in order to prevent Sam from threatening our lunar research base, it would not be wrong to make necessary preparations.
At this time, conventional Earth weapons are no longer effective.
We must have more powerful weapons like aerospace fighters.
The purpose of manufacturing these weapons is not to target any country or individual, but entirely for self-protection and peace.
As long as Sam doesn't take any excessive actions, these weapons will not be used.
"It's time to pay attention to the Dongri controlled nuclear fusion project."
These days, Xu You has focused his main energy on the moon landing project and has not paid too much attention to other projects.
In terms of space weapons, Xu You does not have much inspiration at present, but the Dongri controlled nuclear fusion project has completed construction and is in the experimental stage.
In previous experiments, the Q value of the Dongri controlled nuclear fusion project has set a new world record and achieved an energy-sustaining discharge process.
As long as the Q value is improved a little bit, commercial controlled nuclear fusion can be achieved .
