After the production module was deployed, the hatch of Mousse-1 was reopened.
Dozens of landing craft carrying engineers and security personnel landed on the lunar surface.
Engineers will be responsible for building various facilities and equipment on the moon.
Security personnel are responsible for assisting engineers in completing their work, while also protecting them and the safety of the facilities and equipment.
While Ye Chen's spacecraft, Mousse-1, completed its base site selection, the other four spacecraft also completed their site selections and began base construction.
At this pace, the base construction will be on track in five days, at which point personnel can be deployed to conduct a comprehensive exploration of the moon.
After communicating with the commanders of the other four spaceships, he decided to officially launch the secret mission to find the wormhole in five days!
Just as Ye Chen was leading his team to carry out large-scale construction and exploration on the moon.
Various countries on Earth have discovered China's large-scale base construction activities on the moon.
The commotion this time was so great that even ordinary astronomy enthusiasts, let alone professional astronomical institutions on Earth, could detect the clues through their telescopes.
However, this time, netizens from various countries have given China's move a lot of praise, which is quite unusual.
"The Earth is no longer enough to satisfy the infrastructure-building frenzy; the Moon will be their next target!"
"Regardless, this represents a substantial step for humanity into interstellar space. Best wishes to China!"
"What about the US? They landed on the moon more than 50 years ago, and they haven't even built a small shed there yet!"
"That's ancient history. The US can't even land on the moon anymore."
"The United States hasn't produced any groundbreaking technologies for a long time. Their country is becoming hollowed out. The future of humanity depends on China!"
"China's space technology is far ahead!"
"According to rumors, Mr. Ye Chen of the Mousse Group, who spearheaded the Tiangong Kaiwu Project, is expected to win this year's Nobel Prize."
"Ha, the Nobel Prize? Do they even care about your worthless award!"
"Exactly, the Nobel Prize committee is just trying to get credit for someone else's prize!"
...
In contrast to the activity on the public internet, the official bodies of several major countries have unusually refrained from their usual fault-finding.
Apart from a few media outlets publishing a few lukewarm reports calling for the peaceful use of outer space, the rest of the officially affiliated institutions and media remained silent.
Between nations, strength reigns supreme. When your strength has only just begun to improve, they may launch a massive attack and try to restrict your development.
However, when your strength is far ahead, leaving other countries far behind, they tend to be very law-abiding and everything is negotiable.
Today, China is capable of sending a massive fleet to land on the moon and build a permanent base.
And what about them? Sending people to the moon is extremely difficult for them. The gap in space technology is just too big. All countries are now only thinking about cooperating with China in space. They dare not even utter a harsh word, let alone protest, for fear of angering China and being excluded from cooperation!
Therefore, they have sent special envoys to China to seek cooperation with China in the field of space.
To put it nicely, it's cooperation; to put it bluntly, it's about getting on China's coattails and letting China share the profits with them.
Of course, the five permanent members of the United Nations Security Council do not send special envoys like other countries do; they have other channels of communication.
In the past, when major events occurred on Earth, these countries would communicate privately behind closed doors and reach an agreement before bringing it to the United Nations for discussion and voting.
This time was no exception. At the suggestion of the United States, the five permanent members of the UN Security Council held a closed-door cooperation meeting. The topic of the meeting was, of course, China's large-scale development operation on the moon.
The meeting was conducted online. Modern holographic projection technology has made breakthroughs, and remote meetings can now present realistic 3D images of participants, making them almost indistinguishable from face-to-face meetings.
In addition, this conference used equipment and technology from Warwick.
At the start of the meeting, Russian President Putin spoke first, saying, "Congratulations to China on the commencement of construction of a permanent base on the moon. More than sixty years have passed since the Red Army launched the first artificial satellite into space. This is another milestone achievement for mankind in its journey into space."
He is now in a very peaceful state of mind. Although Russia is also one of the space powers, it has been struggling in recent years. Even without China, Russia's space exploration is facing stagnation.
Upon hearing this, Biden felt disgusted, as if he had swallowed a fly. The Red Alliance had launched the first artificial satellite before the US, thus cementing humanity's pioneering role in space exploration—a regret that would forever remain in the US heart!
Putin's remarks just now deliberately reopened old wounds for the US, and he made no mention of the US being the first to land on the moon, while deliberately comparing China's construction of a lunar base to the launch of the first artificial satellite.
Isn't this just deliberately trying to disgust him?
As the leader of Blue Star, Biden still needs to save face. He can't always be the one to charge ahead in everything, otherwise what's the point of supporting so many underlings!
He winked at the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, the meaning was clear: it's your turn to step in!
Prime Minister John has cooperated with Biden many times; seeing his eyes, he instantly understood.
He cleared his throat and said, "First of all, on behalf of the United States, I would like to congratulate China on its achievements in the field of space. After many years, China has taken over the baton from the United States and has once again landed on the moon. This is another giant leap for mankind."
After saying that, he glanced at Bai Deng in a flattering manner, and only when he saw that Bai Deng's expression had softened did he feel relieved.
Putin's lips curled into a mocking smile. Ignoring the words of the US Prime Minister, he turned directly to Biden and said, "Mr. Biden, this meeting was proposed by the US. What is your purpose?"
Biden glanced at the top leader and said, "Your country is building permanent bases in several locations on the moon. Judging from the distribution of these bases, are you planning to occupy the entire moon?"
Upon hearing this, the other three heads of state also turned their attention to the top leader.
They also had doubts about China's move.
Faced with Biden's challenge, the top leader remained calm and said in a deep voice, "President Biden is exaggerating. The moon is there, and you can land there and build a base anywhere you like."
Upon hearing this, the presidents of the other four countries turned pale. If they had the capability to build a base on the moon, they would have started already, instead of wasting time here.
Putin smiled wryly and said, "Number One, stop keeping me in suspense. The development of the moon is a major issue for all mankind. Russia acknowledges your country's leading position on the moon and is happy to participate. What conditions does your country have to offer?"
"Gallic Kingdom also acknowledges China's dominant position on the moon." The president of Gallic Kingdom, who had always been relatively unknown, also chimed in.
