Chapter 1317 Strength Is the Greatest Guarantee of Peace

The news these days has pushed Lu Zhou to the forefront.

The founder of the Alien Colony Fund, the most expensive Valentine's Day gift in history... No matter which title is picked out alone, it is full of gimmicks.

However, perhaps because he has become accustomed to being famous for a long time, Lu Zhou himself does not have much feeling for the comments surrounding him and the 10 billion fund.

Unlike those "counterfeit products" that are just hyping up the hype and taking the opportunity to collect money, he really intends to take this matter as a long-term business.

Although 10 billion is not a very large number, even if you can't buy a building in Shangjing City, let alone compare with this kind of world-class project, this money is not stored in the bank, but part of it is used. The other part is used to invest in potential high-growth aerospace companies, and to reward groups or individuals who have made outstanding research progress in the aerospace field.

Just as Professor Paul Krugman commented on him, although the name of the beneficiary of this fund is currently filled in with only one person, the beneficiary is far from one person, but the entire community of shared future for mankind.

While promoting the advancement of aerospace technology and moving towards the ultimate goal of interstellar colonization, as long as the annualized income of 2 points higher than inflation can be maintained, the money will become a huge sum of money in a hundred years. The start-up funds for colonization are invested in the wave of the new great age of exploration, leading people who have dreams of a new world to the unoccupied galaxy, and spreading the fire of human civilization to the world 12 light-years away.

And this is the future he described or promised to her on Valentine's Day.

On that star that no one cares about, leave their legend...

"It always feels like you have something on your mind."

Looking at Lu Zhou, who was looking at her with concern, Chen Yushan nodded thoughtfully.

"A little bit."

"Can you tell me?"

"It's not a secret... I'm just, a little worried about Xiaotong," Chen Yushan, who rested her chin on her hands and rested her arms on her knees, sighed softly, "It's good that she didn't participate in any business affairs before... …But now, she is no longer a complete outsider. Is it really okay to continue studying at Princeton?"

This worry is not unreasonable, some bad things happened many years ago.

Facing the senior sister's concerns, Lu Zhou thought for a while and gave an answer.

"At this point, I can't say that Princeton is a special case. It can become an ivory tower outside of a completely independent world... But Xiaotong's safety, there is actually no need to worry about it."

Obviously not satisfied with this answer.

Chen Yushan gave Lu Zhou a dissatisfied look, and said a few words.

"That's your younger sister, as a big brother, can't you worry about her more?"

As an only child, she has always hoped to have a younger sister or younger brother, but since her father is on official business, it is obviously impossible to give birth. And when the second child is released, there is no chance of rebirth.

Although she didn't think that Xiaotong would really become her younger sister one day in the future, she was still very, very happy with this result.

It was precisely because of this that she was particularly worried about whether Xiaotong would encounter any danger.

However, looking at the lack of nervousness on Lu Zhou's face, she always felt that she seemed stupid when she was alone worrying, so she was even more dissatisfied.

After reading the expression on Chen Yushan's face, Lu Zhou smiled and said.

"It's not that I, the eldest brother, don't worry, but that there is really nothing to worry about."

"Why? Is someone secretly—"

"It's nothing like that, and there's no need for it," Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "I said don't worry, it's just because it's different now than it was a few years ago."

The nuclear fusion power plant in Los Angeles has been completed, and the lifeblood of the entire western power system is not to be said to be completely controlled by East Asia Power, but at least Huaguo still has a lot of influence in the energy system of western North America.

Unless there is a diplomatic crisis that completely tears the face, the United States will not take the risk to take the initiative to provoke. Without completely turning into a military conflict, once Huaguo withdraws the technicians and cores of the nuclear power plant, the cost of electricity for the entire Los Angeles will rise by an order of magnitude.

This is not as simple as going from extravagance to frugality.

Once many backward energy industries are eliminated, even if they are prepared for the crisis, it is almost impossible to fully recover to the previous level.

And if it turned into a military conflict, the core and technical personnel were forcibly detained...

The Pentagon and the White House will have to weigh whether they have the courage to face the sword of Damocles hanging over their heads.

"A strong national power is the greatest guarantee for the personal safety of our overseas compatriots, so I am not worried about any danger to Xiaotong at all."

"She can do whatever research and academic activities she likes, and she'll be very, very safe wherever she is... Just kidding, especially in North America, Yankees are even more worried about misunderstandings than we are. "

Chen Yushan: "You have a big heart."

"It's not that I have a big heart, but I believe that strength is the greatest guarantee of peace," Lu Zhou smiled and said softly, "I am confident that I will maintain my current advantage and keep all those who covet us calm. Will suffice."

At this moment, the phone rang suddenly.

Lu Zhou glanced at the phone screen and thought it was Director Li calling, but he didn't expect that the caller ID showed Senior Brother Luo's name, so he pressed the connect button and moved the phone to his ear.

"Hello?"

"it's me!"

"I know it's you, what's the matter?"

Luo Wenxuan: "...Did you forget something important?"

Lu Zhou: "...?"

Seeing that Lu Zhou did not speak, Luo Wenxuan knew that he had guessed correctly, so he sighed and reminded.

"The 100-year physics academic conference... Didn't you say it will be postponed until after the Lantern Festival? Now the Lantern Festival has passed..."

Upon hearing this sentence, Lu Zhou slapped his head instantly and remembered.

"Oh, I've been too busy recently, I've finished it..." Lu Zhou smiled embarrassedly, coughed dryly, and sat up from the sofa, "Don't worry, I'll come to Shanghai tomorrow .”

"I guess you haven't even sent out invitation letters to major research institutions."

"It's okay, I can write now."

"...Let me write it," Luo Wenxuan said with a headache, "Just sign it."

"Alright, let's do that."

Let me tell you earlier, there is such a convenient way, do I still need to delay it until now?

After communicating the work arrangement, Lu Zhou hung up the phone, and then looked at the senior sister sitting opposite with some embarrassment.

"There is something at work, I have to deal with it now."

"Need to go out?"

"That's not necessary, it's fine in the study."

Chen Yushan smiled and said, "Then hurry up, do you want something to drink?"

Lu Zhou: "Coffee is good... Actually, I can do it myself."

"Let me do it. It's better for you to go and get busy with your affairs...By the way, give me a chance to take care of you."

Feeling a little heat on his cheeks, before the feeling became obvious, Lu Zhou hurriedly threw an "oh" and turned around, walking quickly towards the second floor.

Watching Lu Zhou disappear at the corner of the stairs, Chen Yushan stood up from the sofa with a hey, and walked to the kitchen with her slippers on.

However, just as she was about to step into the kitchen, the sound of humming came out from the kitchen, and then she saw a small and exquisite drone "holding" a cup of coffee from the top of her head He ran over and flew upstairs after chasing Lu Zhou's ass.

I don't know if it was her illusion, when the drone came out of the kitchen, she seemed to see a line on the LED screen...

Kaomoji?

【(*`*)】

Watching the drone disappear at the corner of the stairs in a daze, Chen Yushan, who put her hands on the door frame, was stunned for a long time before muttering something in a low voice with her eyes shining.

"Is it so smart..."

"Amazing!"
