Goring finally got to the most crucial part of the whole plan: a grand and bizarre possibility. Using Jiangcheng's brain-like project in conjunction with the detector, they could achieve observation activities without human intervention, handing everything over to the RBN-4 experimental subject, and letting it enter the dimension of death to become a pseudo-human.
Of course, this only exists in theory. Before it is tested, no one can definitively say that it will succeed. But for current human technology, in such a critical moment, this is the only possible method.
How could they not grasp at this lifeline?
Human civilization has always been progressive, resilient, and unwilling to submit. We are unwilling to be caged beasts, and Göring's concept of "breaking the deadlock" reflects this spirit.
A siege-like situation is bound to change eventually.
Goering looked at Jiangcheng, and his gaze represented the gaze of countless researchers and even the entire human civilization—a gaze filled with earnest expectation.
After a moment of silence, the atmosphere became even more tense. No one spoke, and their gazes lingered between Goring and Jiangcheng.
On the big screen, the video of the H-012 incident, the first satellite loss of contact, began to play. This was a secret that the United States had never revealed before, but today they intended to make it public.
The wavy curves, the interference with the signal, and the increasingly blurry image all indicate that the entire field of vision contains unimaginable eeriness and horror. To this day, American researchers still cannot determine what exactly happened on the equator, or how "they" changed the magnetic field of that dimension.
As Jiang Cheng pondered, he also came to understand the difficulty and seriousness of the situation. All fear stemmed from the unknown, which was also the reason why the United States was so apprehensive.
The subsequent loss of contact with the probe was also presented by Göring, and the brightly lit conference room was filled with discussion. Amidst whispers, they shared their perspectives and assessments of the nature of the crisis.
A dozen minutes later, Göring waved his hand, signaling everyone to stop the discussion, and the room fell silent once again.
The core of the meeting would be introduced in a few seconds. He took a few deep breaths, ignoring the numerous researchers and focusing his gaze solely on Jiang Cheng from the China region. Jiang Cheng sensed that this gaze meant that what was about to be discussed was probably related to the Brain-like Project.
All was silent, except for Göring's magnetic voice.
"The culmination of any researcher's hard work and achievements results in experimental outcomes that are close to perfection. Dean Jiang truly deserves to be called a pinnacle of world scientific research. After reading that paper on brain-like experiments, my admiration is beyond words; I am utterly astonished. This is epoch-making research, and coincidentally, it forms a kind of contradiction with the crisis we are currently facing. How do we break through this encirclement? On behalf of the American Astronomical Institute, I request that Professor Jiang serve as the leader of the detection project. The elites of the institute will be at your command to jointly study the brain-like project combined with the detector and resolve this crisis!"
Goring bowed deeply to Jiangcheng.
Jiang Cheng's gaze was calm, his face expressionless, as he looked at him as he bowed and then raised his head again, his face filled with earnestness.
The loss of contact with more than twenty satellites is not the responsibility of a single country. Behind the Huaxia Special Zone, someone suddenly stood up. In front of everyone, that person represented the observation team of the "Flying Kangaroo" spacecraft of the Goose Astronomical Institute.
The man's face was covered in wrinkles; he was a true old man, with the years leaving deep lines on his body.
"On behalf of the Goose Astronomical Academy, I request that Professor Jiang serve as the leader of the joint exploration program between major powers. We will contribute our most outstanding talents. This is the result that many of our leaders discussed for a long time after arriving at the main academy. Professor Jiang is the only one who can be competent to break through the encirclement."
As the meeting reached its first major climax, Mrs. Ender, a middle-aged woman in her thirties from the Shadow Kingdom, hailed as "the most rational diplomat," also stood up. She was there to represent the country behind her and express its earnest expectations, which was also the leader's intention.
"As Professor Pine said, we are in agreement. If Professor Jiang has any needs, we will provide funding and technical support unconditionally. We request that Professor Jiang serve as the leader of the joint exploration project!"
······
Many researchers were shocked by the spectacle and the sudden invitation. Among the various national zones, Kojiro of the Tokuzen family in Sakura Country had something gleaming in his eyes.
He stared intently at the back of the young man sitting at the head of the China Zone. Even though he was unwilling, things were different now. He also had to resolve the crisis, and since he needed someone's help, he naturally had to show his attitude. His originally gloomy expression instantly turned sunny, as if he had long admired Jiang Cheng.
Completely putting those assassination attempts out of his mind, as if they had never happened, Tokuzen Kōjirō stood up with a gentle and refined smile to express his attitude.
"Professor Jiang is undoubtedly one of the most outstanding researchers of this era. On behalf of Japan, I request Dean Jiang to take over the position of Group Leader Göring, select talented individuals, and work together to solve the problem of the lost satellite connection!"
Subsequently, the leading countries expressed their stance, and the smaller countries followed suit. The scene in the conference room was one of people constantly standing up and repeating the same words.
It turns out that Göring's speech, in addition to introducing the situation of the satellite losing contact, also represented a code, a code that the American Astronomical Institute had arranged long ago.
They needed to be sincere, earnest, and display an attitude drastically different from the past. The long night seemed endless, but this was not what they sought. Humanity ultimately sought the dawn, and Jiangcheng was the first spark before the sunrise.
This fire must be lit!
Faced with such a grand scene, enough to shock the entire world, Jiang Cheng gently tapped the table in front of him twice, lowered his eyes, and pondered for a few seconds.
Since he had decided to come, he had naturally made thorough preparations. Although this situation was unexpected, he could still control it. To be precise, regardless of their attitude, some things had to be said, and said without any hesitation.
To take over the project, he definitely wants the position of group leader, who is above thousands of people. What a joke! Without absolute power, how can we talk about conducting research together? Since the beginning of his research career, he has never been a deputy group leader.
Of course, we need to ask about the funding and talent; we're helping you, so it's only right that we do our best. Don't put on this selfless act; it's not China that's being attacked by satellites.
As long as the conference organizers can afford to provide what he wants, then everything is fine.
Goring was not far from Jiangcheng. His Adam's apple bobbed, he gestured with his hand to invite him, and then voluntarily retreated to a corner of the booth.
Amidst the intense attention of the crowd, Jiang Cheng stood up, slowly walked to the front of the stage, and turned to face the audience.
