Chapter 162 Li Qiu, Honorary Mayor For Life!
The trip to the Dragon Kingdom was obviously a shock to the leaders of many continental European countries.
It is one thing to know that the Dragon Country is developing rapidly and science and technology are developed.
Experiencing the shock of this technology is another feeling.
For centuries, they have prided themselves as the center of civilization and the center of the world.
But this time they really came to the Dragon Country and saw this future city, and they knew what civilization was.
When it comes to development and technology, the Dragon Kingdom has thrown off too much of their technology.
Five or six years ago, the Dragon Kingdom only began to surpass them in military power.
Now, Longguo's research and development and technology in military equipment have begun to feed back to civilian use, and various technologies have been upgraded or adapted to help civilian and economic development.
After arriving at the center of the synagogue in Yanjing City, the leaders of the Western world countries were still shocked.
"What I saw and heard along the way is completely different from when I came to the Dragon Country when I was young!"
"It's hard to imagine the speed of development of the Dragon Country!"
The leader of the French Empire said with emotion.
The next day, the establishment ceremony of the Guanghan Interstellar Special Zone was officially held in the Yanjing City Hall and broadcast live worldwide.
As the first special zone city set up on other planets in all mankind, almost all the leaders of the entire Blue Star attended this event, and the queue was full.
And Li Qiu, as the well-deserved founder of the Interstellar Special Zone of Guanghan City, was naturally invited to participate in this meeting.
Sitting in the first row, Li Qiu watched the display of the Dragon Kingdom Interstellar Project and the Guanghan City Interstellar Special Zone on the large screen in the center of the synagogue.
First of all, under the long-distance shooting of the starship, what catches everyone's eyes is the huge lunar 640-ball spaceport standing in the lunar geostationary orbit.
At this time, in addition to the interstellar engineering construction spacecraft flying with robotic arms for construction on this spaceport, there are also many interstellar transfer spacecraft constantly transporting goods back and forth.
Then, the starship in charge of filming began to land on the moon with everyone's sight.
The spacecraft was suspended in the air, and everyone saw the huge lunar complex of the Interstellar Special Zone in Guanghan City.
This is the first colonization base of human beings beyond the blue star, and it will also become a frontier station for human beings to step into the starry sky.
A complex of buildings of such a small town size on the Blue Star is nothing in the eyes of the leaders of these countries on the scene.
After all, even for some very small countries, the size of this small town on the moon is a drop in the bucket for their territory.
But the appearance of such a life town on the desolate moon is enough to shock many people.
Especially through the spacecraft lens, they can also see that several large space-type mining machines are mining the moon around the base.
One country alone occupies the mineral resources of a planet with an area of 38 million, which makes many heads of country envious when they think about it.
In front of the entire Guanghan City Interstellar Special Zone base, the most surprising and shocking thing is a huge and incomparable statue.
This huge statue was transported to the moon from the Blue Star using natural large stones carved by the master, and then Shi Li looked at the galaxy in front of the base.
He represents the ideal that humanity has taken its first step towards the stars, while also conquering the entire universe. (BBAJ) Even if you look closely at this huge statue stone carving, in addition to the typical eastern face, he is actually seven or eight points similar to Li Qiu.
When all this was displayed on the big screen in the synagogue, the scene immediately erupted into roaring applause.
"Great engineering!"
These five words appeared in the hearts of almost everyone at the scene.
It's hard to imagine that in less than two years, the Dragon Kingdom has built such a remarkable project in space and on the moon.
"Guests from afar are welcome."
"There is an old saying in our dragon country, that if you have friends from afar, you will not do it."
"I am very glad that everyone can come to participate in the establishment ceremony of our Dragon Country's Interstellar Special Zone this time, and invite all guests to taste the melons and fruits grown by our Dragon Country in Moon Base City
The leader made a gesture of invitation to the fruits placed on each table.
"Fruit?"
At this time, the leaders of many countries suddenly shook their heads and looked at the melons and fruits on the table in shock.
In the face of such a grand and important celebration meeting, the melon and fruit decorations placed on the table have long been ignored by these people.
Even after entering the synagogue, no one had ever eaten the fruit on the table.
But at this moment, no matter how noble their status is, even the head or king of a country, they can't help but pick up a tomato or melon.
This is a fruit grown on the moon!
It is somewhat difficult for them to imagine that in addition to cultivating food for space breeding on the moon, the Dragon Country has now succeeded in even melons and fruits?
Li Qiu just smiled in the surprise of the many guests, and then picked a small tomato and put it in his mouth.
Space bred cherry tomatoes are sweet and delicious, and thanks to the use of nutrient solution hydroponics and the most advanced cultivation and growth environment technology control, even the best quality products on the market are definitely not less than Bluestar.
The reason why Li Qiu insists on going to the moon first and then to Mars to establish a base is because the moon is close enough to establish an experimental scientific research base.
For example, in the future, a series of space seeds will be prioritized for cultivation on the moon.
After success, it will be promoted in major planetary bases.
Just like now, before the base of Mars and colonization, various vegetable and fruit seeds that meet the needs of ordinary people have been cultivated.
And in the future, Li Qiu also plans to build several large interstellar planting and breeding centers on the lunar surface.
Of course, this money will not come out of the project funds, but will be built in cooperation with enterprises.
As for companies that can participate in projects of this level, it is naturally very restrictive.
First of all, in terms of the shareholding ratio of enterprises and the nationality of legal persons, all enterprises except Longguo can be eliminated.
This kind of food and core technology, Li Qiu is still very strict.
Seeing the excitement and admiration of many guests from afar in the face of this fruit and vegetables, the leader was obviously very satisfied.
"In order to facilitate the management of interstellar trade and passenger transportation, and to establish a good and prosperous economic order, we decided to establish the Lunar Interstellar Special Zone after many considerations.
"Please rest assured that the Dragon Kingdom still follows the memorandum of understanding on the fair development of the moon signed in Wharton City in the early years, so it will not claim sovereignty over the territory of the moon.
"However, according to the laws of the Dragon Country, all bases on the moon, including civilian facilities, commercial production units, scientific research stations, but not limited to these buildings, and their airspace and a radius of one hundred kilometers, will be all bound and protected by the laws of the Dragon Country.
"I hope you are clear about this..."
The leader spoke from above, while the heads of other countries below nodded silently.
The Dragon Nation did not monopolize the moon in violation of the long-signed memorandum of understanding on the development of the Wharton City Moon, which is clearly in the interests of all countries.
After all, for some space powers, eyeballs are also a planet they are most likely to land on and develop.
If the Dragon Kingdom takes the lead in taking possession of the moon for themselves, then what will they play in the future?
As for the Dragon Country saying that they include but are not limited to civil facilities, commercial production units, scientific research stations and other base units are protected by the laws of the Dragon Country, which is equivalent to dividing these places into the territory of the Dragon Country, they do not have too many objections.
After all, the Moon has an area of 38 million, which is larger than any country in the Blue Star.
Is it to let the Dragon Country focus on construction, can it be completely occupied?
So after thinking about this, they were relieved.
And for the Dragon Country this move to send his own applause.
After Li Qiu saw the performance of other country leaders, he just smiled silently.
The new lunar development plan he proposed was indeed agreed to by other countries without violating the memorandum of understanding signed by the Dragon Country.
As long as everyone agrees, then in the future, the Dragon Country can rest assured and boldly engage in development and construction on the moon.
Of course, the moon has a little effort because of the mutual agreement signed before, such as Mars, which is the territory where whoever arrives first is free to decide.
And after reading out a series of measures for the moon, the leader suddenly paused, and then looked at everyone.
"Next, I announce that the Star Special Zone of Longguo Vast City has been officially established."
"At this historic moment, after the decision and deliberation of the organization, Li Qiu Tongzhi will serve as the first mayor of Guanghan City and will serve as the honorary mayor for life!"
The leader's voice said passionately and forcefully.
And after he finished speaking, the scene immediately erupted into warm applause.
Including in the global synchronous live broadcast, many people also applauded excitedly.
This is indeed a day of absolute historical significance for the development of the Dragon Kingdom and mankind.
On this day, mankind's first base city in space was born!
And Li Qiu, as the first mayor and honorary mayor for life, also directly brushed up the prestige value.
This is definitely a great honor that can be imprinted in the long river of human history!
