Chapter 83: Eight Plans
The headquarters of the Star Warrior Project will be set up in Shanghai, and it is a strategic plan led by China.
Jiang Yu smiled slightly. The Chinese are still so pragmatic. Compared with the strategic intelligence plan whose effects are unpredictable, any results achieved by the Space Marine program can be used in space in the near future.
The purpose of this plan is to demonstrate and develop combat uniforms and individual weapons for "space warriors" and to find ways to improve the physical fitness of warriors in order to adapt to the combat environment in space.
Human beings are too fragile in space. Without the protection of spacesuits, it is impossible to survive, let alone fight.
Especially if the spacecraft is hit, it doesn't need to be hit. Just a slap-sized hole will put the lives of all the people on board in danger.
The Star Warrior Project is mainly to prevent similar situations from happening on the battlefield, develop a lightweight aerospace combat suit, and improve the survival rate of soldiers.
Another purpose is to develop robotic exoskeletons for use in space to add huge assistance to soldiers in combat.
The inspiration for the fourth plan, the fraud plan, came from the Trisolarans' disclosure of their intelligence and their attack on the human world.
The main purpose of this plan is to study how to transmit false information to the Trisolarans, study how to deceive sophons, and study "ultimate fraud."
The so-called "ultimate fraud" aims to find a way to deceive the Trisolarans even when they are on guard.
To put it bluntly, it is just like how the Trisolaran people exposed their technological level and caused harm to the earth world, and used conspiracy to attack the Trisolaran people.
Jiang Yu has little confidence in this plan, because most of the losses caused to the human world come from his own suicide.
Although the Trisolaran observers believed everything they said, they and their leadership were calm enough that it would be difficult for them to commit suicide.
However, this plan is of great help in studying the way of thinking of Trisolaran people.
The fifth plan is the ternary computer plan. Also due to the insufficient computing power of traditional computers, this plan aims to develop a ternary computer.
At present, the project has formed an expert group and predicts that the computing power of a ternary computer should be one to three times the maximum computing power of a binary computer.
The rapid progress of this plan is also due to the "fallen giant" of the year.
The Soviet Union had developed a ternary computer back then and achieved certain results.
But because all systems and software at that time were designed for binary computers, and the computing power of binary computers at that time was still far from reaching its limit.
So there was no use for the ternary computer, and the project was quickly cancelled.
Now, under the technological blockade of Sophon, the ceiling of computer computing power is in sight, and Russia quickly restarted the plan.
Because there is a lot of theoretical and experimental data to support it, the plan is progressing the fastest.
The sixth plan is called the Scout Plan, which aims to build an astronomical telescope with sufficient magnification to search for the Trisolaran fleet on the way.
The seventh plan is called the Space City Project, which aims to demonstrate and design mankind's first space city.
The eighth plan, called "Operation Solar Country", aims to launch a large number of probes in preparation for colonizing the solar system.
These eight plans go hand in hand with the mainstream defense plans. Except for the wall-facing plan and the fraud plan, the other six plans are auxiliary to the mainstream plan, or are all phased plans.
After everyone briefly read the information, they first started discussing the wall-facing plan.
Most people have great hopes for the wall plan and believe that the plan will achieve unexpected results.
Some people even praised the person who designed the plan as a true strategist and a romantic person.
Jiang Yu also expressed his views: "There is no doubt that this plan maximizes the advantages of mankind.
"Whether it succeeds or not, this will be an epic plan, a plan that transcends today's human way of thinking and creates a new approach."
Then he changed the topic: "But I want to remind you that although the idea of this plan is advanced, the plan is still implemented by a political system full of loopholes."
Jiang Yu's words really brought many people back to reality, didn't they? The plan clearly stated that the number of wall-facers was tentatively set at four to five.
The United States has its own quota, China and Russia have one, the European Union has one, and third world countries have one.
Although it is now called the PDC, it is still the political system of the United Nations. Whoever has the big fist can deceive people and who has the final say.
Chief Ji smiled and said: "Counsellor Jiang's reminder is just right. Today's international situation is not as tense as it was two years ago, but many inherent differences are still there.
"We once strongly opposed the United States having a quota alone, but Western countries are still working together to besiege China and Russia. We can only settle for the second best and share a quota with Russia.
“However, after the summit, we exchanged other conditions for the opportunity to be nominated from Russia, and promised that the person we nominated would also represent Russia’s interests.
"So the quota shared by China and Russia became our own quota. After we have determined the candidate for the wall-facer, we only need to notify the Russian side."
Anyone with basic strategic thinking will understand the prospects of the Wall-facer plan, and it is inevitable that countries will compete for the quota of Wall-facers.
Jiang Yu took the lead in applauding. Only then did everyone realize and began to applaud this diplomatic turmoil.
Then Chief Ji began to assign tasks and asked relevant departments to study the criteria for selecting wall-facers.
After the topic of the Wall-Facing Project was over, Director Ji issued an order to determine the implementation location, scientific research team and other tasks of the Space Marine Project.
Director Ji also asked Jiang Yu to ask Shiliu to serve as a special consultant for the project.
The second plan led by China is the space city plan.
This is as Jiang Yu expected, because the research results on space cities are also the most practical results in the near future.
However, there were huge differences among everyone regarding this plan.
Jiang Yu believes: “The first space city should be built on the moon, where there are foundations and resources, which can save a lot of engineering work.
"And with the establishment of a colonial city, we have an industrial foundation on the moon, as well as the theory and practice of construction on alien planets, which will be of great help to us in colonizing other planets in the solar system.
"I think just building a spaceport at the top of the space elevator will do."
Among the participants was Dr. Hong, an expert in aerospace: "You have to know that our moon landing plan is still under preparation, and the last time the United States landed on the moon was half a century ago.
"If we build a city on the moon, we need to first restore the American lunar landing spacecraft and launch vehicle production lines, or build our own production lines. Moreover, construction work on the moon is extremely difficult.
“It may take ten years to achieve a breakthrough in this series of technologies, and it may take twenty to thirty years to complete.
