"What is this?" asked Mr. Zhao.
"This thing is called a satellite phone. Unlike a regular phone, it uses our country's own Beidou navigation and communication satellite. It is designed to deal with situations like this where we can't communicate with the outside world!"
When the three heard this, they immediately showed an expression of disbelief on their faces. Old Master Zhao asked in a serious tone, "Where did this thing come from? Is it safe?"
"Before I left, I asked the Beidou project team at 937 for a set of encryption codes for the communication channels. Then I modified a mobile walkie-talkie and made a makeshift one. This is the only one in our country. Calls are fully encrypted and absolutely secure!"
"Alright! You're really capable, you think ahead of the game. Teach me how to use this thing! I need to call home right now!"
Next, Xu Jianguo told Mr. Zhao how to use the satellite phone.
After Mr. Zhao learned it, he took the satellite phone to his room. In order to prevent someone from eavesdropping outside the window, he went to the bathroom in the room, sat on the toilet, and started making a call to China.
In fact, there was one thing Xu Jianguo did not tell Mr. Zhao. In order to ensure that the satellite phone could be used indoors even when there was no satellite signal, he specially added a set of space satellite communication channels to it.
To put it simply, the space satellite is used as a repeater. The dial-up request from the ground will first be sent to the space satellite, and then the space satellite will seamlessly transfer the signal to the Beidou satellite, thereby establishing contact with the country.
Otherwise, if he relied solely on the Beidou navigation and communication satellite, Mr. Zhao would not be able to make any calls from inside the house.
After waiting for about half an hour, Mr. Zhao came out of the house with a smile on his face and returned the satellite phone to Xu Jianguo.
When the three of them saw the expression on his face, they knew that the national center would take action soon.
"Xiao He, go gather everyone together and let's have a simple meeting!"
"Okay, Captain!"
After Secretary No. 1 agreed, he walked quickly outside. In less than twenty minutes, he gathered all the people in the delegation to the old man's room.
Fortunately, the living room is big enough and the floor is covered with thick carpet. If there are not enough chairs, we can just sit on the floor. This is a normal thing for the Longxia people.
After everyone arrived, Mr. Zhao sent his guard out and asked him to guard the door.
Afterwards, he told everyone in detail about the difficulties the delegation was currently facing and what measures the Magnesium country might implement in the future.
However, what was unexpected was that after hearing this incident, no one showed any panic on their faces, as if they had already been accustomed to it.
"Good! You are all great. You didn't bring shame to our country!" Old Master Zhao was very satisfied with everyone's performance and began to praise them.
"Captain, what should we do next?"
"Yes, we Longxia people are not cowards. Since the Magnesium devils want to play dirty tricks, we can't let them succeed no matter what. Even if we lose, we have to tear a piece of flesh from them!"
"That's right, Captain, just tell us what you say, and we'll listen to you!"
Xu Jianguo leaned against the wall, looking at the scene in front of him, feeling an indescribable feeling in his heart.
I feel relieved, touched, passionate, and a little sad.
Mr. Zhao felt the same way as Xu Jianguo at this moment, but after being moved, he did not tell everyone about the center's subsequent plans. It's not that he didn't trust these people, but the fewer people who knew about this matter, the better.
Afterwards, Mr. Zhao first encouraged everyone and promised that the country would not give up on any of them. Before the delegation set off, the central government had already made advance predictions and response plans, so he just hoped that everyone would not panic or be afraid, and everything would remain the same, just waiting for the Magnesium people to continue to make moves.
After Mr. Zhao finished speaking, everyone's faces showed excitement. The people sitting in the front row even took the lead in applauding. Then, the guards standing outside the door heard thunderous applause coming from the room.
…
Soon, the day for the exchange meeting to end arrived.
In the remaining two days, James Kent did not show up again, and the remaining exchange activities originally planned were also unilaterally cancelled by the Magnesium side.
What was even more outrageous was that the Magnesians actually evacuated all the chefs and waiters in the entire manor, and even the food stored in the kitchen and warehouse was not spared.
This led to a food crisis for the entire Longxia delegation.
But this did not pose a problem for Xu Jianguo. He was worried about how to deal with the hundreds of tons of food, vegetables and meat in the space warehouse. This was finally his chance.
In the next two days, Xu Jianguo would go out every day when it was dark, and after walking around outside, he would return to the kitchen of the manor with large and small bags of food, vegetables and meat.
No one knew how he did it, but even if they had doubts, no one asked. A tacit understanding was formed among everyone.
Then the comrades in the delegation, both men and women, took part in the battle and thoroughly implemented the fine tradition of working hard to earn enough food and clothing.
Moreover, since the food was cooked by themselves, and the ingredients brought back by Xu Jianguo were fresh enough, everyone in the delegation felt that it tasted much better than what the chef from Magnesium cooked. Every time they ate at it, they felt like they were eating from a big pot in the past. Their faces were filled with happy smiles, and they were not worried about their current situation at all.
Nine o'clock in the morning on the sixth day.
The Longxia delegation, who had just finished breakfast, were chatting in the restaurant.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the corridor outside the restaurant, causing everyone to turn their heads and look. They saw a group of more than ten people walking in from outside, led by James Kent, who had been missing for several days.
Originally, James Kent wanted to take advantage of this time to come over and see the predicament of the Longxia delegation, but when they walked into the restaurant, the group of Magnesium people who originally had sarcastic smiles on their faces immediately widened their eyes and stood there in a daze.
