Just when there was a big fuss abroad about this issue, the Ministry of Science and Technology of Xia Country quietly released a draft.
Draft on the Packaged Sale of Controlled Nuclear Fusion Technology
The statement is very simple, even just a few lines.
[Controlled nuclear fusion reactor technology: 10 billion US dollars]
[Controlled nuclear fusion magnetohydrodynamic generator technology: 10 billion US dollars]
[Room-temperature superconducting technology: 10 billion US dollars]
[Routine maintenance and installation work: US$5 billion]
[The price of the complete set of controlled nuclear fusion technology package: 28 billion US dollars]
[Note: Xiaguo only accepts mineral resources of equal value, and does not accept any form of cash or other forms of assets. ]
The above is the entire content of this draft.
It's more of a quote sheet than a draft.
…
Magic City.
Zhao Zijie stared at the news on his phone in amazement.
What the hell?
Packaged for sale...controlled nuclear fusion technology?
Can these words be said together?
Is this a spoof news?
He quickly glanced at the news release party.
Ministry of Science and Technology of Xia State.
Zhao Zijie couldn't help but fall into silence.
I always feel like I have a lot to complain about, but I don't know where to start.
With a flick of his finger, he shared the news with the penguin group.
"?!"
"What the hell?"
"Did I see that wrong? Controlled nuclear fusion for sale in a package?!"
"Zhao, there is a 20% discount for package purchases, very Ginkgo-like!"
Looking at the reactions of his group members, Zhao Zijie lightly typed out a line of text.
"I don't know why, but I am increasingly convinced that Xiaguo has mastered the second-generation nuclear fusion technology..."
Zhao Zijie's words immediately attracted a chorus of approval.
"That makes sense!"
"It's just a traditional rabbit skill. Damn it, don't be stupid!"
"Make way, make way! Our company specializes in refurbishing nuclear warheads, polishing submarines, recycling second-hand aircraft carriers, repairing leaks in aircraft carriers and submarines, overhauling nuclear reactors, maintaining and refurbishing space shuttles, and scrubbing dust off satellite surfaces at high altitude!"
"…"
Amidst the chatter of bragging and gossip, one reply caught Zhao Zijie's attention.
"Am I the only one who noticed the last note? Xia Country only accepts mineral resource exchanges of equal value!"
Zhao Zijie's eyes moved slightly, and he quickly opened the news interface to check it carefully.
This item is indeed noted in the notes!
That's strange!
Logically speaking, Xia Kingdom is not short of mineral resources.
It is even a major exporter of minerals.
Why now...are we suddenly using nuclear fusion technology to acquire mineral resources?
Zhao Zijie subconsciously turned on the computer beside him and searched the browser for the volume of Xia Country's mineral exports in the past year.
You won't know unless you search, and you'll be shocked when you do!
In just half a year, Xia's mineral exports have dropped to a freezing point!
Zhao Zijie licked his dry lips, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes.
He quickly found the import and export data of Xia Country's ore for the past two years.
Looking at the comparative data on the computer screen, Zhao Zijie took a deep breath!
In just half a year, Xiaguo's export volume of mineral resources has dropped by 90% year-on-year!
Correspondingly, Xiaguo's import volume of mineral resources increased by 50% year-on-year!
"Is this...something big going to happen..."
Zhao Zijie swallowed and muttered to himself.
…
With the release of this draft, the entire international situation suddenly became a mess.
The White House, United States.
"Damn it... What is Xia Guo trying to do?!"
Albert looked at the document in front of him, his eyes twitching violently.
Professor Collins, who was standing nearby, said softly with a look of trepidation: "Mr. President, I think we should purchase this technology from Xia Country."
"…"
"Professor Collins, what did you say?" Albert suddenly raised his head and looked at Professor Collins in front of him with disbelief.
"When did the United States start buying technology from Xia Country?!"
Professor Collins' eyes were full of bitterness.
"Mr. President, I know this is hard to accept."
"But there is no way around it."
"If other countries buy controlled nuclear fusion technology from Xiaguo, we will be in a passive position."
Albert's face gradually turned red. He stretched out his hand and slammed it hard on the solid wood desk in front of him: "Damn Xia Guo!"
"Fxxk!!"
"What about our controlled nuclear fusion technology?"
"Professor Collins, answer me, how far have we progressed in nuclear fusion technology?!"
Professor Collins was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Currently, a quarter of the construction plan has been completed."
"Bang!"
Albert stretched out his hand, slapped himself on the forehead, and muttered to himself: "Oh my God..."
"Then all our previous investments have been wasted?!"
Facing Albert's questioning, Collins nodded solemnly.
"I'm afraid so."
"Mr. President, according to intelligence, Xia's fusion reactor uses a stellarator structure, which is completely different from the experimental reactor we are building, so..."
Albert sighed deeply and waved his right hand weakly, interrupting Collins' words.
Just now, he had a premonition.
It seems...the United States is going to decline in his hands.
…
Unlike the United States, Western European countries were in a state of madness at this time.
Controlled nuclear fusion technology!
That's controlled nuclear fusion technology!
Jiliguo made the first decision and called Xiaguo.
"Hello, I need to buy a complete set of controlled nuclear fusion technology!"
"28 billion in mineral resources...Give me some time, and Geely will be able to collect them!"
The staff member who answered the phone had a smile on his face.
"Do you need any other services? For example, outsourced construction work?"
"I believe that Xiaguo's construction speed will satisfy you."
The Prime Minister of Jili showed some interest in his eyes: "This charging issue..."
"We just need to add another $500 million in mineral resources."
The Prime Minister of Jili showed some bitterness in his eyes: "Forget it..."
He is still worried about the 28 billion worth of mineral resources!
Another 500 million?
Isn't this going to kill him?
As if aware of the difficulties faced by the Prime Minister of Geely, the staff member smiled and said, "In fact, it doesn't necessarily have to be mineral resources."
"Photolithography technology, or other high-end technologies, can all be used for exchange."
The Prime Minister of Jili took a breath and said with difficulty: "I need to discuss it..."
"Please hurry up. After all, Gaul has also sent a message."
The staff member reminded "kindly".
"Okay, okay, I'll give you a reply as soon as possible..."
The Prime Minister of Geely wiped the sweat from his forehead and quickly hung up the phone.
Looking at the "quotation sheet" in front of him, an idea flashed through the mind of the Prime Minister of Geely.
Perhaps... the Xia Kingdom, which has been suppressed by them for decades, is about to rise completely!
