Upon hearing Lu Yuan's words, some people nearby immediately showed a look of astonishment, and then they began to call out to the others around them.
Lu Yuan took the still-steaming dumplings from the insulated rooms in the dimensional space and placed them in several large pots on the spot, filling them to the brim. Xiao Shan was responsible for helping her family serve the dumplings to each worker.
Everyone accepted the steaming dumplings with grateful expressions; eating dumplings was something from their memories.
They couldn't remember eating dumplings, even though the food was quite good in the dimensional space, eating dumplings was still a rare occurrence.
Moreover, there are many new members here who are both excited and surprised about eating dumplings. As traditional Chinese people, even though the festive atmosphere of the New Year is not as strong as it used to be, the custom of eating dumplings has been passed down for thousands of years and remains unchanged.
Everyone was chatting and laughing while holding steaming dumplings. Lu Yuan looked at the towering carrier rocket in the distance and was also filled with excitement. After everyone had eaten their dumplings, Lu Yuan looked down at the time.
"It's 8:30 a.m., and the satellite will be launched in one and a half hours."
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan quickly checked the remote control in his pocket. Fortunately, the remote control was intact and had not been lost. If it had been lost, Lu Yuan didn't know how much responsibility he would have to bear.
For the next hour and a half, Lu Yuan and his family stood on the observation platform of the satellite launch base, watching the towering rocket in the distance and the busy workers nearby, their faces full of anticipation.
The work proceeded smoothly, and the cleaning was completed. Xiao Pinghai simply ate a few dumplings before returning to his post. He was still somewhat worried about whether the rocket launch would be successful and whether the satellite could accurately synchronize with the Earth.
That's right, they launched a geostationary Earth-to-ground satellite, not an orbital satellite. Because the world is in constant flux right now, and China is bordered by the Americas to the east, they are not worried about sudden storms at sea.
However, if an orbital satellite were actually used, it would likely encounter attacks from those monsters while hovering over the Amazon rainforest.
"You guys go check the database again to see if there's anything missing. Make sure there aren't any mistakes!"
"Yes, Team Leader Xiao, we're on our way now!"
"And you guys, check the satellite's rocket launch engine. See if any screws are loose. Right now, even a single screw is a critical component for us, so make sure these parts aren't damaged!"
Xiao Pinghai then issued several more orders, and then selected several important locations to inspect. He had rehearsed the entire satellite launch process in his mind countless times.
Although he was certain in his heart that the satellite would be launched successfully, it was the apocalypse after all, and too many unstable factors were affecting their plans. So if anything seemed amiss, he would immediately check it and eliminate any potential problems.
Finally, at 9:50, Xiao Pinghai arrived at the satellite launch control room. The large screen in front of him lit up, and everyone sat in their respective positions to check various data to prevent any accidents.
"Please have Mr. Lu and the others come over now!"
The assistant next to him immediately nodded, then went to the observation platform outside and called Lu Yuan and his family in.
Looking at the satellite launch base on the large screen in the distance, Lu Yuan and his family members all had very curious expressions on their faces.
This was their first time entering the central control room for a satellite launch, a place that is arguably the most important location in the entire satellite launch base and is not accessible to ordinary people.
To ensure that nothing goes wrong, Lu Yuan and specially deployed troops to guard the area to prevent any sabotage.
Xiao Pinghai approached Lu Yuan with a face full of excitement and gently shook hands with him: "Mr. Lu Yuan, the time has come. The satellite can be launched. Let's start the countdown now!"
Lu Yuan nodded, then took out his remote control and handed it to the other person, who took out two batteries from his pocket and put them into the remote control.
Two beeps sounded, and the light on the remote control lit up. Only then did Lu Yuan realize that the remote control the other party had given him didn't even have batteries installed, and he hadn't noticed it.
"Good heavens, why didn't you say so before? This thing needs batteries, which made our whole family nervous!"
After hearing this, Xiao Pinghai burst into laughter: "Maybe you guys are too nervous. Of course I wouldn't hand you a remote control with batteries."
After all, this is extremely important. If it were accidentally pressed, it could cause problems with our launch site. That's why I made preparations beforehand and gave you the remote control without batteries!
Lu Yuan no longer knew how to describe his feelings. Ever since he got the remote control, he had been constantly watching it to prevent any accidents from happening.
But the other party said that the remote control didn't have batteries in it, which was really embarrassing.
"Okay, what if I unfortunately lose this remote control?"
