You promised to build cars, so why did you go into the military industry?

After witnessing the entire launch of the United Rocket from the launch observation area, Mr. Lei, who had been anxiously waiting, finally felt relieved.

The rocket successfully launched, and soon our own Migraine 3 will also transmit back the images of Earth it took in orbit. The upcoming school season coincides with the space craze that has swept across the country during the summer vacation.

Lei Jun decided to rethink the process. He felt that the new product launch event originally planned for September 5th was not impressive enough and the program needed to be drastically changed.

At that moment, as expected, a notification came to Li Ran's mind along with the announcement from the launch center director.

[Escape from the Mother Planet (Part 1): Construct and use a primitive and dangerous chemical-energy rocket to deliver at least one ton of scientific payload to the mother planet's low Earth orbit for at least 24 hours.]

[Side Quest 'Escape from the Mother Planet (Part 1)' Completed: Roughness and brutality, explosiveness and savagery—you fought against the constraints of the world in the most primal way.]

[Task Rewards: Ramanujan's Manuscript (one piece), 1 A-grade Talent Spirit Jade, 1 B-grade Talent Spirit Jade, 5 C-grade Talent Spirit Jades.]

The system's notification diverted Li Ran's attention. Immersed in the reward content, Li Ran suddenly felt his body lighten. When his vision returned, he was being dragged up by several people.

"Hey! Hey! Hey! Put me down!"

Li Ran tried to resist, but failed. In the end, he was thrown into the air by the group and then caught by them.

After soaring four or five times, Li Ran, now free, grabbed Gao Jingming, who had been making the most noise. Seeing this, the others joined in and tossed him into the air.

After Gao Jingming came down, none of the remaining people ran away; each of them experienced the feeling of being airborne.

The staff in the launch test hall looked at the United Industries employees celebrating in the corner with some helplessness; it was just the successful launch of a test rocket.

But then they thought back to when they first started working, and the scene of the successful launch of the first rocket bearing their mark.

The excitement and joy seemed to be even greater.

At 12:25 pm, the background image in the midday news gradually changed to a freeze-frame of Li Ran being tossed into the air.

"Our reporter reports that the Joint-1 Y1 carrier rocket, jointly developed by a private aerospace industry enterprise and CNSA, successfully sent a 2-ton irregularly shaped probe into its predetermined orbit at 10:34 a.m. today."

Private aerospace, rockets, Joint One, Lingyun probe...

Countless novel words were introduced to households for the first time through television.

When the alien detector named Lingyun appeared on screen, many viewers showed strange expressions.

After all, a car floating so conspicuously in space creates a strangely comical scene.

Thanks to CNSA's help in maneuvering a satellite to change its orbit, this precious image was captured.

Then, the footage showed the Lingyun probe taking pictures of Earth from space.

There is a line of text watermark in the bottom right corner of the video, which reads:

"Shot from 200km in space by the Zhali 3 smartphone from Zhali Company."

Upon noticing this line of text, Mr. Lei, who was about to have his meal, burst into laughter, feeling that this multi-million yuan investment in GG was well worth it!

In the afternoon, the news channel would repeat news about United Industries and United One every hour on the hour.

The video bearing the watermark of the grain company will also be played.

Lei, who was supposed to take a lunch break, patiently watched the news over and over again.

At 7:23 p.m., just after the news broadcast finished reporting a breaking news item, the scene switched to the launch control hall of the satellite launch center.

As the countdown ended, the entire scene of the Joint-1 Y1 carrier rocket launching and taking off was played.

Unsurprisingly, the Earth video bearing the watermark of the grain company was also edited and played for 5 seconds.

Subsequently, an interview with Director Qi Kaifeng was broadcast.

"This is a creative exploration made by CNSA and my country's first private aerospace company in the aerospace field, marking..."

Those watching the news who noticed this scene couldn't help but sigh with regret.

That night, Mr. Lei's phone was bombarded with calls.

The people at the center of this incident, after being interviewed by reporters in the afternoon, returned home.

As for the rocket debris, a specialized salvage team will be responsible for its collection and transportation, and Director Qi Kaifeng offered a discounted price.

Three days later, in Li Ran's office at the United Industrial Manufacturing Plant.

Eight B-level talents gathered together for an internal meeting.

Ignoring everyone's messy sitting posture, Li Ran took out the manuscript of the mission reward from his pocket.

It was a yellowed parchment.

A line of small text appeared.

Write your question down and ignite it; inspiration will emerge from the flames. You can currently write 0/800 words. It will turn to dust in seven natural days.

Do you know Prometheus? —Srinivasa Ramanujan

"I'm planning to give this tool to Lin Yu to improve the reusable rocket later on. What do you all think?"

No one objected to Li Ran's decision.

After Lin Yu put away the parchment, Li Ran spoke:

"This reward also includes a Grade A Talent Spirit Jade, the only one available so far... Who should it be given to?"

The crowd looked at each other, and then fell silent.

After a while, Gao Jingming spoke:

"Give it to Wang Bing. Maybe with some luck, he'll train another A?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yu, who had originally intended to speak, hesitated before agreeing.

"No matter who it is, there will be a mismatch between technology and actual production capacity." Zhang Chengyuan sighed. "From a long-term planning perspective, giving it to Wang Bing is undoubtedly the most suitable option."

Soon, everyone reached a consensus.

Just as Li Ran was about to transfer the A-level talent spirit jade to Wang Bing, the system prompted him again:

Please select your area of ​​expertise: Theory, Experiment, Computation, Engineering, Application.

Wang Bing pondered for a moment and then said to Li Ran:

"Theoretically speaking, it suits my characteristics better. I've been personally guiding Xu Qinghe for a while now, let's see how it goes."

Soon, a new suffix, "[Theoretical Enhancement]", appeared after Wang Bing's name in the system panel.

Clap your hands to get everyone's attention, and Li Ran says:

"I'd like to hear about the launch of the new Lingyun SU7 as soon as possible. Do you have any suggestions?"

Guo Shuyan pondered for a moment:

"It will take at least a week to prepare."

The plaza will also be illuminated on September 6th.

"OK."

Following the announcement of the press conference on United Industries' official website, in the following days, manufacturers and media from various industries received invitations from United Industries, which has recently been making waves.

When news broke that a company that had just completed the first rocket launch in China's private aerospace sector was going to hold a new product launch, the previously quiet public opinion became lively again.

People who weren't initially paying much attention to this began to speculate that the press conference would announce Xi Yao.

But for Lingyun SU7 owners, the products launched at the press conference are not easy to guess.

After all, the answer is right there, flying brightly overhead.
