"The largest nuclear submarine in history was launched, why was it so silent before?"

"Beyond typhoon level, the real 'Sea God'!"

"Is the balance at sea tilted?"

"24 huge waves - 3? Unprecedented super firepower!"

After the news of the launch of the 096-class nuclear submarine was released, just as Chen Nian expected, the wave of public opinion was even more turbulent than a tsunami.

But foreign countries are silent.

the reason is simple.

——

They don't know what to report.

To brag about how strong this submarine is?

What's the point?

If it was said that such back-stabbing could help them defraud more funds from the government before, then the situation is completely different now.

Huaxia has really come to that step.

What's more, it is very likely to become the benefactor of all mankind.

Under the premise that the economic environment is deteriorating, all capital is counting on the super strong expectation of nuclear fusion to overdraw more trust.

They have no other choice.

The tax has been received in 2023, if you don’t continue to receive it in 2050, what else can you do?

You can't declare official bankruptcy and abdicate to give up the throne, can you?

——

Of course, abdicating the throne to the virtuous is just an illusion. As long as the attributes of the capital remain unchanged, the one in power will just change from one family to another.

Therefore, countries have basically reached a consensus.

Since it is impossible to maintain objectivity, it is better not to read, ask, or speak.

Blindfolded, all good illusions can still exist.

However, such "blindfolding" can only be aimed at the most ordinary people.

At the top, policymakers remain extremely vigilant.

in the office.

Bob sat with many of his staff, analyzing the latest reports from front-line intelligence agencies.

"...Judging from the intelligence data we have obtained so far, the size of this submarine has reached at least 200 meters, and the displacement is more than 50,000 tons, which has exceeded the highest record of typhoon class."

"On this point, the other party's report is not mixed with any water."

"In addition, the new reactor mentioned in the report probably refers to the thorium-based lava reactor. Huaxia has done research on this technology for a long time, and it should have achieved corresponding results."

"We cannot determine the specific power of these two turbines, but a conservative estimate should be more than 500 megawatts."

"This also means that the maximum submerged speed of this submarine must be higher than 25 knots."

"At the same time, this submarine uses an integrated electric propulsion system, which has excellent mute performance. The specific decibel number is temporarily unavailable, but what is certain is that it must be far lower than 094's 120 decibels."

"On the whole, this submarine has taken the lead in all aspects - there is no doubt about this, and it will become the basis of our next discussion."

"Now, I want to ask a question, please think about it before answering."

"How the hell did they do it?"

After finishing speaking, Bob looked around, quietly waiting for everyone's answer.

In fact, he didn't expect anyone to be able to say the answer directly --- it was obviously impossible.

What he needs to establish is an atmosphere of discussion, a state where everyone is thinking hard and trying to find clues.

And these highly professional members of the think tank did not disappoint him. Just a few seconds after his voice fell, someone said:

"We need to disassemble their technology first and figure out the source of their technology."

"There are too many cutting-edge technologies in the design of this submarine. The floating raft shock absorption, the double-layer pressure-resistant hull, the ship's comprehensive electricity, the new reactor, and even the hull coating seem to be different from what we used to know."

"Among them, the integrated power system and reactor technology have traces to follow. The former has been applied on the Renhai-class destroyer and has become an important support for the shipboard electromagnetic gun."

"The latter is the result of years of experimentation."

"But the question is, what about other technologies?"

"Those technologies just popped out of nowhere, with absolutely no events for us to react to."

"Of course, there was no intelligence system that caught any clues before the emergence of these technologies."

Speaking of this, the think tank members paused for a moment.

He frowned slightly, as if thinking of something new.

"...it's weird -- including their all-nitrogen anion salt, metal hydrogen technology."

"These two technologies are the most typical. As a relatively open scientific research direction, we can say that we know their progress well."

"According to previous calculations, it will take at least 10 years for them to make a breakthrough."

"But the truth is, it took them less than a year."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present fell into silence.

Yes, this problem is not discovered for the first time today.

In fact, everyone who pays attention to China's technological progress has noticed this strange phenomenon.

A long time ago, someone once put forward a view that there is a separate department in Huaxia that specializes in research and development in key areas, but this view gradually lost attention after the emergence of the Civil Affairs Office.

Or it should be said that the focus of most people has been deliberately guided and shifted.

Even though they had already obtained part of the information and even got the name "Xinghuo", under tremendous pressure, Congress only regarded Xinghuo as a technical support department run by the Civil Affairs Bureau.

but now.

The situation appears to be more complicated.

So, this legendary department really exists, and not only exists, but also continues to play an incredible role?

This "Spark", what kind of situation is it formed, and how does it operate?

Bob frowned tightly, and his fingers could not help tapping the table lightly.

After thinking for a long time, he opened his mouth and said:

"We have to pay attention."

"In the past, we were so confident in our capabilities that we slashed the intelligence budget."

"I admit that this wrong decision has something to do with me."

"But it's okay, it's not too late."

"We have to figure out where those technologies really come from."

"Only by doing this, can we truly block the opponent's further technological explosion and slow down the speed at which they widen the gap with us"

"How to do?"

someone in the crowd asked.

Bob shook his head and replied:

"We don't have any kind of opportunistic approach - we need to tease out these lists of people from all these projects, and then put all the relationships together and find out where they overlap."

"If the point of coincidence points to someone who doesn't exist, an institution that doesn't exist, or doesn't point at all, and is replaced by an obvious breakpoint"

"It could also mean that we are really fighting a mysterious enemy."

"And this enemy may be stronger than imagined."

the other side.

Bloomberg's recent life can be said to be extremely comfortable.

Since the last time he used Liu Hai to obtain information about metal hydrogen materials, his status within the organization has skyrocketed.

It can even be said that he avoided a war that might destroy mankind and saved the whole world in disguise.

Even his peers can't help but marvel at his agility, wisdom, and boldness.

And his superior praised him even more, in addition to the promised generous treatment, he also gave him additional privileges and conveniences far beyond his previous rank.

Bloomberg is very satisfied with this, and he is more dedicated to his work.

However, he may not realize that what he has achieved now is just the last glory before the end.

In the office, Bloomberg closed the encrypted computer. Just now, he bought a luxurious real estate in Mississippi with the rewards given by his superiors. He planned to retire directly after finishing his last mission and really start to enjoy life.

The assistant on the side was sorting out the briefing he had just received, while explaining the contents of the briefing to him.

".This time the task is quite difficult. The corner tower and the May will join forces. So far, more than 100 people have been confirmed to participate in the operation."

"It can be said that this is the largest joint operation we have organized overseas in the past 20 years."

"MI5 and the Federal Intelligence Agency will also cooperate with the operation and share the whole process."

"Our goal is to find direct evidence of the existence of that mysterious institution within one month, and determine its basic organizational framework and mode of operation within two months."

"It would be nice to have access to key personnel - but I'm afraid it's not that simple."

"In addition, the principles of this operation are relatively flexible. The green light list has been issued, and you can check it later."

"good."

Bloomberg responded briefly.

At this time, he was still immersed in the fantasy of retiring, and he didn't pay much attention to the assistant's words, including the task itself.

Huge? Many people involved?

If it was before, he might be very excited about it. After all, such projects must be an excellent opportunity to make contributions.

But now, his mind has changed.

He doesn't need more grades, as long as he survives the last time honestly, what greets him is an extremely beautiful life.

——

Of course, out of his professionalism and respect for his superiors, he still has to participate in the project.

Even if it is paddling, it must be done in a decent manner.

So, he took the document from the assistant, and first turned to the page of the green light list.

The so-called green light list refers to the list of various equipment and strategies that can be used during the mission. The function of the list is to avoid redundant command during the mission, and of course to ensure that the overall boundary of the mission is controllable.

This is easy to understand, it is impossible for you to go on a rampage in the city center just to snatch a hello kitty, and it is also impossible for you to stick to your head with nuclear weapons and abide by that set of so-called humanitarian principles and be unwilling to use torture.

Although Bloomberg rarely participates in the kind of high-intensity confrontation in the war zone, he is no stranger to this set.

But when he browsed through all the contents of the list, he couldn't help feeling a little dazed.

".Is this a business war between law-abiding multinational companies? No, even a business war is dirtier than this."

Hearing his slightly ironic ridicule, the assistant on the side nodded helplessly and replied:

"Yes, the list is contradictory this time."

"On the one hand, the level of equipment, personnel, and strategies it can mobilize is very high, almost the ceiling of all operations."

"But on the other hand, it's surprisingly clean, restricting almost every strategy that could cause trouble."

"Maybe it's a level of caution. The superiors want answers, but they don't want that answer to lead to more difficult problems."

"clear."

Bloomberg nodded slightly and continued:

"It's not difficult to understand the fact-in short, you can't use all the strategies that may kill people, right?"

"That's right."

The assistant nodded and replied in agreement.

"I'm not the kind of person who is keen on using violence"

Bloomberg said a little proudly.

Afterwards, he continued to read the briefing, the contents of which were familiar to him, but when he finished reading the whole report, he suddenly frowned.

A mysterious organization, sudden technological advancement.

The world has come into contact with, when was China's earliest leapfrog technological progress?

J-22?

For this fighter, Bloomberg can be said to be very impressed.

After all, at that time he was still working on Senas's project, and his life was relaxed and leisurely.

But not long after, J-22 was born out of nowhere, followed by a comprehensive attack on the Senas system, and he himself really tasted the taste of defeat.

How was that plane built?

This is a question that Bloomberg has never understood.

Is the technical strength of Factory 601 that strong?

impossible

They must have received some kind of technical assistance, and the problem now is to find out the source of technical assistance.

Unlike the thinking of its superiors, Bloomberg does not intend to adopt the so-called "big data analysis method".

In his view, data is fake and can be carefully designed.

People, only people are absolutely uncontrollable things.

No matter how strict the rules are and how clever the strategy is, people will always make mistakes.

As long as you find that little mistake, you can find a breakthrough.

Then, according to your own ideas, start with the issue of "people".

Bloomberg leaned back on the chair, and the memories of those seven years ago kept flashing in his mind.

He tried to expand the keyword "603 Institute" as much as possible to find its connection with other elements.

This kind of thinking is closer to intuition, and relying on this intuition, Bloomberg only took a few minutes to screen out an unusual point.

Xigong University.

Yes, the development speed of this university in recent years, especially the development speed of the spacecraft major, seems a bit too fast.

It is very likely that it has some connection with the 601 Institute and the J-22 project.

In other words, it also has a connection with that mysterious department.

Bloomberg immediately became excited.

This is a breakthrough.

Compared with those highly confidential research institutions, a university obviously has more loopholes
