Su Cheng's eyes rolled and guessed: "It is possible that they obtained the 'metal hydrogen' sample from the meteorite?"

"This..." Dianyi hesitated for a moment, "This possibility is not ruled out, but I asked Dianyi before, and he said that it is impossible to form 'metal hydrogen' on the moon, because since its birth, the internal air pressure has not met the standard. Once it reaches the standard, it has long been out of orbit and cannot still revolve around the earth."

"The only possible existence of 'metal hydrogen' in the entire solar system is Jupiter."

"Is that true?" Su Cheng nodded in a vague way.

At this time, Wells said: "If we want to land on the moon and obtain 'metal hydrogen', it is actually a difficult problem. We only obtained a little 'metal hydrogen' sample from the moon by chance."

"But if we want to obtain more metal hydrogen, even if we in the United States have the technology and experience of landing the moon, it is far from enough, because the 'metal hydrogen' must have excellent technology to travel to and from the earth and the moon inside the moon in order to continuously transport materials and equipment to the moon and truly mine and obtain 'metal hydrogen'."

"And our United States is now mature in the technology of traveling to and from the earth and the moon." Wells smiled and said, "The only trouble is that when you land on space from the surface, it is more difficult than from the earth to the moon, so..."

"The theme of this summit is to solve how to easily send surface materials and equipment into space."

Having said this, Wells didn't continue talking, and then Prime Minister Yoshida stood up.

He said: "In fact, it is very simple to solve the problem mentioned by Your Excellency Wells. Just build a space elevator at the equator of the earth, and then you can easily transport materials into space. You can also rely on the space elevator to build a huge space station."

The space elevator is also called the space ladder. Su Cheng has heard of this a little. He has seen it in the news before, and Dian Er also mentioned it at the beginning.

Similar to ordinary elevators, but the difference is that the function of a space elevator is not to allow passengers to travel between floors, but to send them into a space station about 60,000 kilometers away from the earth.

Once completed, transportation can be carried out day and night, send tourists and goods into space, and greatly reduce transportation costs.

Nowadays, rocket launches or space shuttles carry about $20,000 per kilogram of payload, while space ladders carry only $10 per kilogram of items. There is no doubt that space elevators can easily promote the leapfrog development of space technology.

"At the beginning of this century, we RB started to develop space elevator technology, and now we are basically mature."

"We have the confidence and ability to build a real space elevator by the next 2050 years. However, if you join us, I think the days when the space elevator is completed will be shortened to less than ten years."

"Imagine that in ten years, we will have the technology to land in space at a constant speed, and we will have infinite opportunities to land on the moon and obtain 'metal hydrogen'. At that time, it will not only solve the energy problem, but also solve the first step of human exploration of space."

RB is indeed not a rare thing to study space elevators. There were also news reports at the beginning, and most of the people here know it.

However, many people still expressed doubts about building a space elevator within ten years.

After all, in theory, the space elevator is a 60,000-kilometer cable elevator composed of carbon nanotubes. Not to mention anything else, how to perfectly connect these 60,000-kilometer carbon nanotubes is a big problem.

Regarding such doubts raised by some people, Wells interrupted: "Everyone, in terms of space elevators, not only RBs are doing it. We in the United States and France also have a lot of investment and mature technology. There is no problem with this. Once the cooperation is reached, you can visit the research base and see if it is true or false."

Wells said this, and immediately some entrepreneurs began to echo.

"Since Your Excellency Wells said so, I think there must be no problem."

"Yes, I personally believe in the character of Your Excellency Wells."

"After saying so much, I wonder how much does the space elevator plan cost?"

Half of the above discussion is nonsense. In this economic era, money is the highlight.

"After our preliminary estimates, it will take … $240 billion to build a space elevator with a diameter of five meters," Yoshida said.

After he said this, someone immediately retorted: "Prime Minister Yoshida, it seems that your price is wrong. If you divide it by ten, I think it is feasible."

Yoshida was not angry at the questioning, but instead squinted his eyes and smiled: "Indeed, more than ten years ago, the estimate of the cost of space elevator construction was actually only about 10 billion US dollars, but that was just an estimate when the technology was immature."

Well, this sentence directly hit the person who wanted to catch the price problem and keep it down.

Yoshida glanced at the entrepreneurs present and said, "There are 39 outstanding entrepreneurs from all over the world here. Our nine countries will be in... Hum?"

Originally, Yoshida was going to tell the allocation plan for collecting funds one after another, but suddenly, he found something wrong. For some reason, his stomach began to feel a little cramped and began to roar.

"Damn it, how could I be at this time..." Yoshida cursed in his heart. He found that he really wanted to go to the bathroom now, and there was nothing in the world that was more important than this.

"Yoshida, what's wrong with you? Your face doesn't look very good." Wells saw Yoshida stop and said to him with some surprise.

"I……"

Wow…

Yoshida was about to speak, but as soon as he opened his mouth, a long and dull sound came from inside him.

This is not a poison, but a rumbling sound in his stomach.

But outsiders didn't know that he was releasing poison. At this moment, everyone looked at him with different expressions.

Wells, who was sitting next to him, frowned when he heard the voice, and glared at him fiercely, with a disgust on his face.

He also cursed in his heart, "What is this disgusting guy doing?"

"Sorry, everyone, I feel a little uncomfortable in my stomach. Let's leave for a while, you guys... continue."

As he said that, Yoshida covered his butt, clamped his legs tightly, and quickly left the parliamentary hall.

After he left, a brief silence came to the parliamentary hall, but then another sound of face twitching came from the corridor outside through the wall.

For a time, even though the entrepreneurs and politicians present had good cultivation, some laughed and some cursed.

"This Yoshida is simply a shame to the political world."

"He is so funny. He is actually farting on such occasions, and he is simply incompetent."

"RB people are like this. The two RB people I met before were even more than him."

"Anyway, I almost burst into laughter and crying. You didn't see Wells' expression, that's so exciting."

"Yes, Yoshida's butt was facing him at that time."

“…”

"Silent!" Many people in the parliamentary hall couldn't help laughing. While talking in a low voice, Wells stood up and took out his full momentum and shouted.

Those who were present who spoke would not give him face and all became quiet.

Su Cheng blinked, touched his cheeks, and the corners of his lips twitched violently for a few times before he returned to normal.
