Chapter 1328 The Returnee's Notes 402
"...In such circumstances, the government needs to rapidly and forcefully increase the birth rate, but traditional methods such as subsidies and publicity have limited effectiveness, so it may turn to the black market for surrogacy..."
The government would secretly allocate funds to medical groups to establish underground surrogacy factories to mass-produce "national babies".
Some "high-quality" individuals are forced to donate sperm and eggs, which are then genetically screened and conceived by surrogate mothers to ensure a "high-quality population."
Everyone else was stunned; they had only skimmed through the information before.
At this point, Xie Ning took a sip of tea and comforted her, "Of course, these are just ideas and plans."
However, it is a plan that actually exists in the documents.
What are humans? They are merely tools for production within the system.
Xie Ning looked at the small country in the information and sighed silently. The country had a large population and a large number of impoverished women, and surrogacy was not regulated there.
In some cases, the government even coerces them into becoming surrogates by offering high rewards or debt, because the benefits are so tempting.
As for their so-called human will and dignity, what do they matter? Nobody cares.
This is absolutely appalling and a serious violation of humanitarian principles.
Amidst the heated discussions around her, Xie Ning looked at the blank-faced women in the documents and couldn't help but think of a book she had read, "The Handmaid's Tale."
At that time, or perhaps even earlier, someone had already seen this sorrow.
During the meeting, someone asked about the issues that had been exposed. However, after asking the question, they realized they had made a slip of the tongue.
After all, we had already negotiated with the officials there before, so it would be difficult to make a big fuss.
Some of the real perpetrators can still get away with it, which is an unavoidable choice.
Even though there are researchers of various nationalities there, most of whom are from the United States, Dr. Yi and Yuexin, who are at the core, are Chinese.
Even without mentioning this point, the United States would not allow this blame to truly fall on its own head.
A real fight would only result in mutual destruction.
During halftime, Yang Hong quietly replaced the tea on Xie Ning's table with traditional Chinese medicine, and even glared at Xie Ning secretly. She hadn't returned to China with him before and didn't know about Xie Ning's injury; the shards had pierced his intestines!
She then looked around the conference room, which was larger than the one in the villa area. As Xie Ning's assistant, this was the first time she had come to a place like this.
Just now, while listening to Xie Ning talk about surrogacy, she remembered the conversation she had with Xie Ning in the ward before entering the conference room.
Sometimes it's not that legal means are bad, but that legal means are too slow. Naturally, some people will want to take shortcuts.
The second half of the meeting mainly focused on Xie Ning's current research findings.
Actually, they had heard that the United States was researching such weapons, namely space-based kinetic energy weapons, so they started their own research, even if it was just a concept.
A few years ago, I painstakingly made a similar one, but after testing it, I found that its power was completely different from what I had imagined.
At most, it will just create a big crater in the ground.
However, this research still has value. Isn't their research a slap in the face to the old man?
Because the space-based weapons developed based on the US's ideas are limited by physical laws and technological bottlenecks, their actual power is far less than that of nuclear weapons, and they fall far short of expectations.
They then turned to space-based laser weapons, which can achieve light-speed strikes and have a wide coverage area. However, they have high energy requirements, are complex to maintain, and are more technically complex than the previous one, making them difficult to put into practical use in the short term.
Xie Ning is currently researching directed energy weapons that integrate multiple technologies, including kinetic energy, guidance optimization, and new energy forms.
It incorporates the advantages of the previous two and has made breakthroughs in power, but it still fails to reach the level of a nuclear bomb.
Professor Wang also participated in the second half of the meeting. His research and Xie Ning's research were separated afterward, with Xie Ning leading his own team.
He, on the other hand, focused on research projects related to electromagnetic railguns.
Although the two would occasionally get together to discuss things, to be honest, he really didn't know what Xie Ning's research results were.
Xie Ning had the machine brought in, and then used 3D imaging to reconstruct the actual impact test.
She also added that she used the least powerful missile.
After all, they didn't want to escalate the situation, and powerful missiles weren't suitable for breaking through enemy lines.
Of course, she didn't describe this in detail.
In addition to low-orbit kinetic energy weapons, drones and quadruped robots for detection and attack were also deployed, and the actual test results were quite good.
This is all thanks to Professor Zhong's tireless efforts day and night to overcome the technical difficulties.
Seeing that others were looking over, Professor Zhong straightened her back and wanted to say that Xie Ning was actually the main force in this research. Moreover, she had a feeling that along the way, although she was the mentor, Xie Ning was more like the guide.
When Xie Ning saw that people were still mentioning her hacking skills, she had no choice but to quietly change the subject and talk about another research project. Where there is a spear, there is a shield.
She dares to bring out space-based weapons now because she has prepared a shield, and her research on the advanced version has also yielded results.
What is this shield?
"Satellite kinetic energy interceptor." To make it easy for those present to understand, Xie Ning directly revealed his inspiration: Old American science fiction movies.
People at the meeting couldn't help but laugh, and the laughter eased the atmosphere considerably.
This meeting lasted from morning till night, and by the time it ended, night had fallen, thin clouds floated in the sky, and only one or two stars were visible.
