Faced with Councilor Li's affirmation, Lu Yongchang's face showed a faint smile.
Looking at Lü Yongchang's rather indifferent expression, Councilor Li's eyes revealed a hint of surprise.
In his memory, almost no one could maintain such a calm demeanor when he praised them.
After a moment of contemplation, Councilor Li slowly asked, "Yongchang, what are your thoughts on the future direction of technological development in Xia Kingdom?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Hong Qiming, who was standing to the side, showed a hint of excitement in his eyes.
It's here!
Judging from Representative Li's previous attitude, he was certain that as long as Lu Yongchang answered the question in a conventional manner, the important task of leading the new generation would inevitably fall on his shoulders!
Lü Yongchang's eyes flickered slightly.
Like Hung Kai-ming, he also realized the meaning behind Councilor Lee's words.
Before entering the office, Hong Qiming's words of advice flashed through his mind.
Although he understood the hidden meaning in Hong Qiming's words, he couldn't give a conventional answer to the question.
The scene of the sun's helium flash kept flashing through his mind, how could he dare to slow down!
Lu Yongchang took a deep breath and slowly said, "Congressman Li, I believe that Xia Kingdom should set its sights on the universe!"
Hong Qiming was slightly taken aback, and then a hint of urgency flashed in his eyes.
That kid!
I clearly told him not to say anything carelessly!
Lu Yongchang continued, seemingly oblivious to the fact that "we have now successfully ignited the spark of nuclear fusion."
"It can be said that Xia Kingdom is only half a step away from completely mastering controlled nuclear fusion."
“As a researcher and scholar, I have an obligation to remind you that controlled nuclear fusion technology is extremely important and concerns the fate of the nation!”
"Xia Kingdom has now reached a turning point in history. The door to a new world is right in front of us. Whether we push it open or retreat depends entirely on our next move."
Representative Li frowned slightly, looking thoughtfully at Lu Yongchang, who was speaking eloquently in front of him.
"Yongchang! You..."
Hong Qiming, standing to the side, was getting impatient. He lowered his voice and called out to Lü Yongchang, trying to interrupt him.
Representative Li abruptly raised his left hand, making a gesture to interrupt Hung Kai-ming's actions.
He gave Hong Qiming a meaningful look and slowly said, "Let him finish speaking!"
Then, Representative Li turned to look at Lü Yongchang again and said meaningfully, "You mean, Xia Country needs to develop controlled nuclear fusion as soon as possible?"
Lü Yongchang nodded slightly: "Not only that, Xia Kingdom needs to set its sights beyond Earth."
"Outside Earth?"
“That’s right.” Lu Yongchang’s eyes were firm. Ignoring the doubts in the eyes of Councilor Li and Hong Qiming, he continued, “The Moon, Mars, or... beyond the solar system.”
"Ahem! Yongchang!" Hong Qiming coughed to remind him, "We've gone a bit off-topic!"
Representative Li slowly shook his head, a hint of a smile in his eyes: "It's alright."
"Young people should always have some dreams, that's good."
Hearing Councilor Li's assessment, Hung Chi-ming breathed a slight sigh of relief.
He secretly glared at Lü Yongchang.
That brat!
They really dare to say anything in front of Representative Lee!
When we get back, I'm going to give him a good talking to!
As for Lü Yongchang, a hint of regret was evident in his eyes.
Indeed, it's too early to say all this now.
Only when the sun begins to show signs of aging a year later can he formally bring his plan to the forefront.
Now, what he needs to do is accumulate all the necessary technologies for the "Starry Sea" project a year from now.
After a moment of silence, Representative Li spoke again: "Yongchang, rest assured, the controlled nuclear fusion project will be the focus of Xia Country's development in the next few years."
"What you need to do now is to perfect the controlled nuclear fusion technology in the laboratory as much as possible. When the time is right, Xia Guo will naturally build a controlled nuclear fusion demonstration reactor."
Lü Yongchang nodded silently.
"Alright, you can go out now. Minister Hong and I still have some things to discuss."
...
The office door had just closed when Hong Qiming said urgently, "Councilor Li, that kid Lü Yongchang... he's just too young, he..."
"Alright, alright," Councilor Lee said with a smile. "I know what you mean."
"Of course I know that Lü Yongchang is a promising talent."
"I'm keeping you here for another reason."
As he spoke, Councilor Li handed a document to Hung Kai-ming.
Hung Chi-ming breathed a slight sigh of relief and reached out to take the documents handed to him by Councilor Lee.
"this……"
The moment Hong Qiming saw the document, his brows furrowed tightly.
"This is the investigation result of the Second Bureau of Security of Xia State."
Representative Lee said it casually.
Hong Qiming's pupils suddenly contracted, and his hands gripping the documents trembled slightly.
It turned out to be intelligence from the Second Security Bureau of the Xia Kingdom!
This is an intelligence agency comparable to the US Central Intelligence Agency, the UK's MI5, and the Soviet KGB!
Councilor Li's eyes were deep as he said in a low voice, "According to the investigation, although Lü Yongchang had excellent grades in the past, he... did not seem to have shown any outstanding qualities."
Hong Qiming swallowed hard: "You mean... there's something wrong with Lü Yongchang?"
Representative Lee slowly shook his head.
"There's no problem."
“I’ve also looked at his parents’ information; they’re very clean.”
"Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to get into this office."
