As requested by Chu Anguo, Secretary Chen placed the USB drive containing the technological data of the spaceship that Emerald Star was gifting to the Ugly Kingdom onto the USB drive, along with a note explaining the situation.

He stood there waiting for Gu Xixi's reply, but after waiting for a long time, he still hadn't received a reply. Then the office called to urge him to leave, so Secretary Chen had no choice but to leave first and let the supermarket staff on duty keep an eye on things.

He went straight to Chu Anguo's office, and after confirming which office the meeting was in, he hurriedly rushed over with his laptop. The meeting had just started when he walked in and sat down, just in time.

Chu Anguo turned to look at him, and Secretary Chen immediately stepped forward to explain a few things. Only then did Chu Anguo turn back. "Let's begin the meeting. Everyone, please talk about your respective areas of responsibility. Gu Xixi is not here, so I will temporarily take over her duties. After the meeting, I will compile your statements into a report and send it to her."

The main problem is that Gu Xixi is always going out on fieldwork, and she is becoming more and more busy. She doesn't have time to listen to reports on the progress and results of many projects.

But for her, this was a pointless meeting that was a waste of time. However, due to procedural issues, he helped host the meeting when Gu Xixi was not around.

In addition, Gu Xixi was originally going to report to him and then forward the message after listening to it, but now it can be considered as a one-step process.

"Leader Chu, I'm in charge of the Center for Preventing and Controlling the Cultural Cold War Against Ugly Countries... Currently, online public opinion is normal, but we haven't let our guard down..."

"The border situation has eased. According to the arrangements made above, a super-intelligent aerospace engineer was selected to create a super-intelligent bodyguard robot, which has been very successful. Although it is not as powerful as the 20 lifelike robots that Gu Xixi sent back, it has achieved 80% of its combat effectiveness, greatly assisting the border guards and protecting our soldiers..."

"The space city is being built in eight parts. We conduct daily handover and communication to ensure progress is on track, and so far we have not encountered any technical difficulties. However, with a large number of people involved in the project, living conditions are quite tough. But the dormitories are being upgraded and improved, and we expect they will be able to return to the living standards of single apartments in about half a month."

……

After listening to everyone, only the people on the space elevator remained silent, their expressions slightly embarrassed.

Chu Anguo waved his hand, "Just say what you're asking. You can't say it at home. Your space elevator construction is based on your own blueprints and you've been involved in many of the designs. It's probably more difficult than other projects... Go ahead and say it."

Such a massive, century-long project couldn't possibly be without any problems; it would be strange if everything went too smoothly.

Moreover, as far as he knew, the initial concept for the sky elevator only had two modes: one was to rise from the ground, and the other was to descend vertically.

"Rising from the ground" means first building an elevator base station on the ground that can connect to the space city, and then continuing to build upwards to connect to the space city.

Vertical descent involves descending from the space city via a "suspended ladder".

Based on the actual situation, the final solution should be a suspended ladder. This technology had already been studied before the jade exchange, and now it should be even more effective.

"Yes, our space elevator uses a suspended elevator design. The biggest challenge from the beginning has been how to fix this suspended elevator in space."

The person on the other end finally spoke. Fearing that Chu Anguo might not understand and might not be able to convey the message clearly, he added vivid gestures.

"When a satellite revolves around the Earth, it is subject to two forces. One is the Earth's gravity, which points towards the Earth's center; the other is the centrifugal force generated by the satellite's inertia, which is opposite to the Earth's gravity."

"If these two forces are equal in magnitude, a satellite can orbit the Earth indefinitely without any external force, neither falling off nor flying off. This kind of motion is called a 'stable orbit,' which is the foundation for maintaining the stability of a space elevator, but the space city has not yet been built..."

He was somewhat worried and troubled, feeling that everything he was doing now was futile, relying only on models and theoretical data to complete 80% of the project. He was afraid of wasting his time.

"As for the manufacturing materials, we initially considered carbon nanotubes, and we did manage to manufacture them, but the results weren't as good as the theory suggested. We're still working on improving them. If Comrade Gu Xixi discovers any other materials in the other world, please ask her to bring them back for us."

"Furthermore, since the space elevator needs to operate in the harsh space environment, the cabin must have sufficient protective measures, such as radiation protection and protection against micro-meteorites. We plan to conduct space tests on the elevator cabin first..."

Chu Anguo categorized the contents of the meeting, reporting what needed to be reported and relaying what needed to be relayed. Secretary Chen, holding a new document to be handed to Gu Xixi, got up again.

When the supermarket called, he listened and then quietly reported to Chu Anguo, "Just received a reply. Comrade Xixi has already taken the USB drive to set the timer content and sent it over there."

"Okay, go ahead." Chu Anguo waved his hand to his ear, and Secretary Chen left immediately.

Meanwhile, at the U.S. National Space Command Center, Mr. Pete sat firmly in the center, awaiting feedback from Emerald Star.

After waiting for most of the day, at 4:35:8 PM, they finally received a signal from Emerald Star again. Mr. Pete immediately looked up and smiled.

The other staff immediately began work, and soon the first message was translated: [The data is too massive to be transmitted all at once without loss. After testing, all data on the spaceships and warships will be sent within one month. Please check your inbox; the process must not be interrupted.]

Mr. Pete smiled with satisfaction. “Good job. The spaceship not only has controlled nuclear fusion technology, but also many other technologies that we don’t have or urgently need to develop. It’s a high-tech package. If the information is truly useful, we must dedicate 80% of our manpower and resources to realizing it.”

"Guys, it's time to show your skills. We'll be receiving the first data packet soon. Please translate it and evaluate it immediately."

"Great! At our speed, we can definitely finish building the spaceships and warships before China. Then, let us go and 'protect' them."

"Perhaps we can stand on their shoulders; we must have had the space city first."

“Yes, Mr. Pete, we are honored.”

……

Two hours later, the translated data was delivered to the professors' desks, and they began to examine it carefully, their expressions gradually becoming serious.

One of the professors suddenly slammed his fist on the table and burst into laughter.
