Chapter 1,329 Arms Sales Ambition
Jetting blue flames, the Seagull, carrying the hope of human civilization, sailed into the endless cold night. In addition to the three hundred scientific researchers, also sent together were the space elevator components designed by Future Heavy Industries for the Mars colony.
Watching the starship go away, Jiang Chen turned around and left the port of Star Ring City.
In order to determine the candidates to be inoculated with the Flower of Memory, he had already spent a lot of time in the Star Ring City, and now it was time to return to the surface.
When Jiang Chen returned to the villa on Coro Island, it happened to be late at night.
Seeing that the light in Xia Shiyu's study was still on, he gently opened the door and walked in.
Having just finished processing a document, Xia Shiyu hit Haqie, leaned back on the chair and relaxed and stretched.
At this moment, a pair of hands gently placed on her shoulders, almost causing her to slide off the chair.
Turning her head and facing the face full of evil smile, Xia Shiyu had a true expression on her face and glared at him angrily.
"I didn't even say a word when I came in."
"I'm not afraid of disturbing you."
"Excuse me already, okay?"
Closing her eyes, Xia Shiyu gradually relaxed her whole body, with a sweet smile on her lips, quietly enjoying the kneading of those big hands on her shoulders.
"Why are you still up so late?"
"It's not because of you."
"I?"
Jiang Chen glanced at the pile of documents on the table in confusion, and saw the pile of signed documents in the upper left corner, with words such as "2017 New World International Defense Expo" and "Planning Plan" written on the cover.
Seeing this, a hint of surprise suddenly appeared on Jiang Chen's face.
Speaking of which, he personally gave instructions on this matter.
"We have invited 47 countries to participate in the exhibition. Currently, 39 countries have confirmed their attendance, and 789 companies have confirmed that they will appear at the exhibition." Her closed eyelashes trembled slightly because of comfort. Xia Shiyu said in a lazy tone, He reported the progress of the work to Jiang Chen, "The location and time of the event have been finalized. It will be held in the heart of the ocean on Coro Island in September."
This is the first time that New Zealand has held an international defense exhibition.
Those invited are either Earth Defense Alliance member states or countries that have the intention to join the alliance. The purpose of this defense exhibition is not only to strengthen military cooperation among member countries, but also to find overseas buyers for Future Military Industry, a growing arms giant.
This is the first time that the Future Military Industry has relented on the matter of overseas arms sales.
In addition to generating profits, selling arms is itself a way to expand influence.
It is almost foreseeable that EMP weapons and exoskeletons will become the protagonists of this defense exhibition and become the darlings of purchasers from various countries.
Of course, all the weapons sold to foreign countries are export models specially designed by the Future Military Industry. In terms of technical content and performance, they cannot be compared with the equipment used by Star Ring Trade for their own use. They are probably comparable to those used by Madagascar mercenaries. Guys are on a level.
"Don't be too late." Jiang Chen said softly.
Humming comfortably, Xia Shiyu said in a joking tone.
"I suddenly discovered that you are also very good at taking care of others."
"Did you just find out?" Jiang Chen said with a slight smile.
"What, what are you doing?" Feeling the hands that were beginning to be dishonest, Xia Shiyu bit her lower lip, blushed and glanced at the door in a hurry, whispering softly, "Don't make trouble."
"If you are worried about what Lilith will hear, you can rest assured," Jiang Chen gently blew into her ear and watched the red cloud climb to the tip of her ear. Jiang Chen said with a bad smile, "I saw her when I went upstairs. Lying on the couch playing games.”
"You, you haven't taken a shower yet..."
"I want you to wash it for me."
…
A night of silence.
The next day, Jiang Chen slept until almost noon before getting up.
After washing up and eating the lunch prepared by Ayesha, Jiang Chen came to the living room.
Seeing Jiang Chen walking towards her, Lilith, who was lying on the sofa, moved her calves and moved her seat for him.
Sitting next to Lilith, Jiang Chen leaned on the sofa comfortably and turned on the holographic TV to watch for a while.
It just so happened that what was playing on the TV was international news.
The Colombian government forces and the FARC started fighting in the central region. Without the support of the NATO coalition forces, the government forces were retreating steadily under the guerrilla offensive and had retreated to less than 20 kilometers from the capital Bogota.
NATO is currently trying to start a dialogue with the Moro Kingdom on the issue of prisoners of war, but it has been rejected. Italy and Greece are considering withdrawing from the NATO coalition and launching peace negotiations with the Farc as independent countries in order to redeem their captured soldiers.
After all, the two countries here only sent a symbolic battalion there, purely to join in the fun and respond to the call of the elder brother. The situation is not right now, and this war obviously cannot continue. Compared with NATO's common interests, domestic political interests are of course more important.
"Are things developing as you imagined?" Lilith, who was lying on the sofa with her legs curled up, suddenly asked in a cold voice.
"Not at all," Jiang Chen smiled, "But at least the general direction hasn't gone astray."
"Really?" Lilith said thoughtfully.
At this time, Ayesha walked into the living room, glanced at Lilith lying on the sofa, and walked to another small sofa to sit down.
"Bernice called me just now. The U.S. Department of Defense issued a document to all U.S. soldiers, requiring that it be strictly implemented in platoon-level combat units. All electronic equipment, especially communication equipment, must be strictly kept in a specific location during non-use periods. In the Faraday backpack..." As she said that, Ayesha clicked on the holographic screen of the watch and gently pushed it in front of Jiang Chen, "Here is the original manuscript."
"She can even do this." Jiang Chen was a little surprised. He stretched out his fingers with interest and fiddled with the scroll bar on the holographic screen.
It seems that the United States is indeed frightened by the emp blow from Star Circle Trade, otherwise it would not resort to such a method.
The advantage of doing this is obvious. There is no need to worry about having your eyes and ears suddenly disabled by the emp of the Star Ring Trade. The disadvantages are of course also obvious. This will ultimately cause great inconvenience to real-time communication, such as the need to agree on communication time and so on.
In addition, the report also mentioned that the U.S. Department of Defense ordered a batch of old communications equipment from domestic communications companies to deal with emergencies. At the same time, it will spend 10 billion US dollars to develop a more advanced, more convenient, and cheaper optical transmission system, intending to fundamentally solve the threat of electromagnetic pulse weapons in the interstellar trade.
But Jiang Chen was quite skeptical about whether the United States could really do it.
There is indeed nothing wrong with their direction. There are only two ways to deal with EMP weapons in the end of the world. One is to use optical transmission components to replace electric transmission components as much as possible, and the other is to make key electronic components as small as possible.
However, again, it is impossible to completely resist EMP attacks unless the electromagnetic field is completely shielded...
