Chapter 1623 Noah's Ark

Star Hotel.

Inside the presidential suite.

A man in a suit and leather shoes with a straight nose stood at the desk in the study, looked at Academician Yang Chongping who was sitting on the chair, slightly raised his wine glass to him, and said with a smile.

"Please allow me to toast you, because your design is so perfect that I don't know how to thank you."

"You don't have to thank me," Academician Yang Chongping continued in a calm tone, looking blankly at the man standing in front of the desk. Biggest thanks."

"Please don't worry about this! We have already contacted the shipyard and those suppliers who can build the parts in your design. I believe it will not take long before you can hear good news from me," while speaking, Mr. Gladstone smiled, and continued in a flattering tone, "I believe that when this epic-class colonial ship is completed, your name will definitely be recorded in history, in the name of the greatest aerospace engineer of this century! "

"Only one starship? There are too many people worthy of being recorded in the annals of history," Academician Yang Chongping narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked out the window in the direction of the earth, and continued, "The greatest man of this century The miracle is there, compared to the staircase connecting the sky and the earth, that starship is not worth mentioning at all."

"That's not necessarily the case. Regarding this point, please don't belittle yourself," Gladstone said with a smile, "We can imagine, when the second sun rises from the top of our civilization, when our colonial The capsule landed on a planet far away from the earth and the solar system. As the designer of this starship, who else can surpass you in history? Undoubtedly, you will become the bearer of the fire of civilization, and your Greatness will not be inferior to anyone, even Academician Lu."

I have to say that sometimes even if you know it's flattery, it's still hard to make people hate it.

Hearing what Gladstone said, Yang Chongping's brows eased a little, and he even felt a little happier.

However, as an unsmiling leader of the school, he did not show this happiness on his face, but said in a calm tone.

"hope so."

"Before going to bed, I have to sort out the minutes of the meeting, so I won't talk."

"As you wish," Gladstone nodded slightly, and said kindly, "The body is the capital of scientific research, remember to rest early and don't stay up too late..."

"And, I wish you a happy life."

The holographic beam projected on the desk gradually shrunk, and the figure standing in the holographic beam also disappeared.

The fake holographic projection system made it impossible for people to notice that what stood there before was just a holographic image.

After dismissing the manager of the Nanmen II Colonial Exploration Foundation, Academician Yang Chongping stretched out his index finger and tapped on the desk, retrieved the meeting minutes of the day, and reviewed them again.

Then at this moment, his brows could not help but slightly wrinkled.

Originally, he wanted to see Academician Lu's proposal.

However, to his surprise...

No?

For some unknown reason, Academician Lu, known as the greatest scholar today, just watched with great interest from the beginning to the end of the meeting, without saying a word...

...

"Lu Zhou seems to be on Mars."

Putting the wine glass in his hand on the table beside him, Gladstone who turned off the holographic communication system turned his gaze to Lawrence who was standing aside.

"People are in the Starry Sky Hotel, as if they are attending a seminar on Europa's development plan."

Gladstone expected to see a look of fear on Lawrence's face. After all, even if they are allies now, this guy is really annoying.

However, to his surprise, Lawrence just nodded without any change in the expression on his face. As if the two were just talking about an ordinary topic, he spoke in an ordinary tone.

"I've heard of it."

"That's it?"

"What do you want to ask."

"I mean... the guy who made you fall so hard is standing right under your nose, aren't you going to do something?"

"If he doesn't interfere with my plan, why should I take the initiative to provoke him and make my plan complicated?" Lawrence glanced at Mr. Gladstone and said in a light tone, "Didn't you realize that you really reason of failure."

Who else could it be?

Isn't it because of you?

Gladstone's brows twitched, and a trace of displeasure flashed across his face, but he finally suppressed the dissatisfaction, took a deep breath and said.

"I always feel that this matter is a bit strange, do you think he may have noticed something."

After pondering for a while, Lawrence spoke.

"This possibility does exist. You can keep an eye on his movements, but it's best not to provoke him. Remember, our task is to complete this Noah's Ark bound for the new world. Don't make any trouble unless it is absolutely necessary."

"Of course, I will pay attention," Gladstone nodded, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly said, "Actually, there is one thing that I don't quite understand."

Lawrence: "Don't understand what?"

Gladstone: "The warp drive is only listed on the Qinling now, how are you going to install that thing on our... colony ship?"

"What do you mean? It's not difficult," Lawrence smiled lightly, and continued, "Mars is the stomach of human civilization, where all ores are smelted into alloys, and then cast into machines that devour energy. Whether it is Panya The East Asia Heavy Industry Co., or the North American Alliance’s Space-X or Boeing, their production lines are all here. We are now standing on the stomach of human civilization, do you still need to worry about not being able to get a warp drive?"

"You mean...to snatch the blueprints from East Asia Heavy Industries?" Gladstone stared at him as if looking at a monster, and said with a strange expression, "The failure on Ceres hasn't taught you a lesson yet. Is it? It is impossible to succeed in direct confrontation."

"Confrontation? I never thought about it," Lawrence continued in a slow tone. "Although I am an AI, it doesn't mean that I won't learn from failures. This time, I plan to use civilized people's way to solve this problem.”

Gladstone shrugged.

"Pan-Asia cooperation will not tolerate this level of secrets being leaked into the hands of an unknown force. Once they find out that the blueprints have been leaked, we have no chance to install the warp drive on Noah's Ark. War will start immediately!"

"There may be a war, but we are definitely not the ones who are drawn into the vortex. You will understand why I said that. This is also an exchange of benefits." Lawrence smiled lightly and continued, "Now, what you need to do There is only one thing, and that is to get as many people as possible involved in the 'Noah's Ark' project."

Staring at the holographic image in front of him, Gladstone looked a little uneasy. After hesitating for a moment, he finally couldn't help but said, "I hope your crazy plan won't lead us all into the ditch."

"Crazy or not, I don't know, but do you have any other options?"

Looking at Gladstone who couldn't say a word, Lawrence smiled faintly, put his hands behind his back, and just disappeared from the silent space.
