On the other side.

While Hu Lai was busy solving the implementation of "controllable nuclear fusion technology", three astronauts landed on the moon and the historic establishment of a "space base" on the moon is still fermenting around the world.

First of all, after this battle of Yan's aerospace, the global reputation has completely increased and reached its peak.

Although there is no so-called aerospace strength rankings, everyone clearly realizes that at this time, Phoenix Group has completely surpassed North American NASA to become the world's top and most active space agency - at least in lunar exploration , Phoenix Group has become a global leader!

As the father of Phoenix Group's largest funder, the name of Saudi Arabia also resounded throughout the world with Phoenix Group, and the influence of the entire Saudi country in the international market also increased significantly.

Prince Schalbi was very excited. It was obvious that the purpose of gaining reputation through the "Manned Moon Landing" project had already been achieved.

No, to be precise, it is not "having achieved", but "over-implementation"!

Since Saudi astronaut Rahman and two astronauts from Yan Kingdom set foot on the moon together, the entire Arab world has been completely in full swing.

Throughout the thousands of years of Arab history, they have never achieved such a high achievement in key historical events in human development. Their civilization and technology have always been crushed by the West and the East!

And now!

Rahman and the astronauts of the Yan Kingdom set foot on the moon together. This is not only a brilliant stroke in human history, but also undoubtedly an extremely glorious event in the entire Arab history!

Without the special publicity of Saudi officials, Arab astronauts' historic landing on the moon swept across the entire Arab world like a tornado. The king of dogs and prince Sharby and others were in the limelight, and their prestige reached its peak in the Arab world!

Of course, while being excited, Prince Schalbi also knew very well who this all came from.

"Father, I heard that the latest C939 large passenger plane developed by Phoenix Group has begun to accept orders and bookings..."

Before he could finish speaking, the old king interrupted Prince Sharby.

"Buy, buy it now, give instructions immediately, and ask the aviation department to buy 300 aircraft first!"

"Okay, Father!"

...

Just when the big dog family was in a relaxed mood and spent a lot of money generously, other countries also began to get ready.

After Yan Country successfully achieved manned moon landing, all North American media lost their voices. Except for a very small number of media briefly reported this incident, the entire North American society could hardly see the "manned moon landing" of Yan Country this time. and the details of "Space Base".

And most importantly, this time, even the official North American NASA did not respond, and even did not have a verbal check to appease allies.

The slightest NASA is obvious.

Europe, France.

"Director Ante, I think the situation is very clear now."

"Before under pressure from North America, we had to stop all the aerospace cooperation with Phoenix Group, but now NASA has obviously not kept up with Phoenix Group's progress, and the 'Artemis' plan they proposed is also completely out of date!"

“They’ve made the promises they’ve made to us that “the Moon explores together” now look like a joke, so… we have to restart our collaboration with Phoenix.”

The person who spoke was Ammons, deputy director of the French Space Agency.

Previously, because North America and Yan Kingdom were fighting each other on the "moon development", in order not to offend both sides, France neither supported North America's "Moon Act" nor the "moon joint development plan" of Yan Kingdom.

But now Yan Country has cooked raw rice and wait and see again, it is obviously not the best choice.

"You are right, Ammons, we really need to start cooperation with Phoenix Group as soon as possible."

Director Ante nodded, then slowly lit a cigarette and said:

"If I remember correctly, one of the cooperation plans we signed with Phoenix Group before was that they helped us send our astronauts to the moon; now it seems that whether from a political perspective or from a practical scientific research,

Everything must be put on the agenda and be realized quickly.”

"Now whether we want to do so or not, we must realize that we have entered the era of 'moon development', and the moon will inevitably be an important strategic resource point for humanity to compete for..."

Ammons agrees.

But after a moment, he frowned slightly and said:

"Director, because we took the initiative to stop working with them before, and later we also tried to restart the cooperation, but their asking price was too high..."

"Now they successfully landed on the moon with their big astronauts, and now they are in full swing. We may have to pay a higher price to reach cooperation with them at this time, and even some countries have to pay.

Interests at the level…”

"Will this... be worth the loss?"

Hearing this, Director Ante rubbed his temples and couldn't help but curse.

In fact, when we first talked with Phoenix Group about the "manned moon landing" cooperation, the requirements of Phoenix Group and Yanguo were not high.

But after North America interfered twice, Phoenix Group also became angry, and the conditions they offered were higher and higher each time, and outrageously higher each time.

Director Ante knew in his heart that this could not be blamed for Phoenix Group, after all, he took the initiative to cancel the cooperation...

After a moment, he sighed softly. It was obvious that France had missed the best opportunity. Now that he wanted to reach a cooperation with Phoenix Group, he could only put down his figure and act more docile and pay a greater price!

"Ammons, nothing is worth the loss. I will report this to the senior management immediately. We need to achieve manned moon landing as soon as possible."

"Let's do this, you will be responsible for this matter yourself first, and contact Phoenix Group immediately to fully demonstrate our sincerity in cooperation."

"Remember, your attitude must be gentle, and you must let them feel our sincerity..."

Ammons immediately responded, not surprised at the attitude that Director Ante showed.

Just kidding, if France, one of the five permanent members, waits for other countries, such as Adde, Spain, Portugal, etc., have not landed on the moon, what kind of joke is this?

...

At this moment, not only France, but also most powerful countries in the world are rushing to contact Phoenix Group to hope to take advantage of Phoenix Group's ride-sharing.

However, these countries are still lucky, at least they can talk to Phoenix Group.

As one of the Five Constant Persons, the British Empire, a hard-core ally of North America, was a little embarrassed.

Royal Aerospace Administration.

"Director, this is the latest news. Do you have a look at it yourself?"

Looking at the stack of information handed over by the assistant, Director Johnson seemed a little upset and did not take it.

He waved his hand.

"Allen, just read it."

"Okay, Director."

The assistant immediately opened the information and said:

"This is the latest information forwarded by the Intelligence Department - according to internal personnel reports, Ade, France and Spain have fully started cooperation negotiations with Phoenix Group."

"If nothing unexpected happens, they are very likely to negotiate a cooperation with Phoenix Group on the 'manned moon landing' project, that is, Ade and France are most likely to follow and land on the moon in a short period of time.

”

Director Johnson's already upset face became even more serious.

As one of the important members of the Five Constant Persons, as the "Sun Never Setting Empire" with the most colonial experience in the world, as the most important country in Europe, if other countries land on the moon in advance, it will undoubtedly have an extremely bad impact on the British Empire.

After a while, he slowly said:

"How is the situation on NASA? What did they say? Have you replied?"

The assistant's face suddenly became helpless, and he shook his head and said:

“NASA has no response.”

"And, according to the news sent back by our personnel inside NASA, NASA was not only shocked that Phoenix Group could achieve 'manned moon landing' and build 'space base' in such a short time, but NASA would not have been able to do so in a short time.

It is possible to achieve 'manned moon landing' and catch up with the progress of Phoenix Group."

"Now... we must admit that the Phoenix Group, the Yan Kingdom, has gained absolute technological dominance on the moon; whoever they want to land on the moon can land on the moon."

Johnson let out a heavy breath, obviously not only is NASA's life difficult, but the British Empire is not very easy.

But before he could speak, Alan, the assistant next to him, continued:

"There is also a piece of information, but it is not about aerospace, but about our 'space observation ship'."

"Aerospace Observatory?"

Johnson was stunned and then guessed something.

He asked hurriedly:

"Is this news coming from North America? They want our 'space observation ship'?"

Now it was the assistant's turn to be a little surprised and nodded and said:

"Yes, Director."

"North America has just proposed that they hope that our 'space observation ship' can go to the Blue Ocean to form their Pacific Seventh Fleet to provide them with some data reconnaissance services."

"Our Ministry of Defense has agreed to their request, and this message is to inform you that our 'space observation ship' has been temporarily requisitioned."

Johnson's face suddenly changed drastically.

In the past six months, North American officials have continued to increase their troops in the Asia-Pacific region. Both the military bases where the Neon Kingdom are located and the Pacific Fleet stationed in Luzon have expanded a lot compared to one year ago.

Logically speaking, such actions will undoubtedly increase tensions in the Asia-Pacific region and cause uneasiness.
