Chapter 1085: The Significance of Yang Qing's Connection
The live broadcast room of Xiantaicun began a frenzied traffic-driving model because of Yang Qing's appearance.
Every minute, tens of thousands of people flow in.
Yang Qing's rallying power has not only not faded despite his long absence.
On the contrary, he is like an aged wine, growing more fragrant with time.
Especially when Yang Qing's appearance first emerged, the whole live broadcast room suddenly filled with an atmosphere that left many concerned people feeling uneasy.
Many people secretly felt relieved.
"Fortunately he's old, just like ordinary people, and must also go through birth, aging, sickness, and death."
"Otherwise, with his influence and his hostility toward us, we would never have a chance to rise."
"Over these years, too many people have fallen into his hands."
"A single headline sends thousands of people into it each year."
"It's only because our kind are numerous enough; otherwise, even more people couldn't withstand his havoc."
"Serves them right; even behind Thirteen Hall there's his handiwork—those who escaped met such miserable ends, all inseparable from him."
"Tens of trillions..."
"Being cut to pieces a thousand times is not excessive."
"You fail to see this; if he weren't old, would the cabinet tolerate his current immense influence?"
"These years, why has he peacefully retired? Isn't it to avoid suspicion?"
"The Yang family controls too many resources; if anyone else held them, the state would restrict them. Only the Yang family behaves decently—once family rules and teachings are issued, combined with rapid rights updates and the collective shareholding model—otherwise no other family would allow such great control."
"That's why everyone hopes to see Old Man Yang's current state."
"No one wishes for such an old monster to live forever."
"What can we do?"
"Do nothing; the Yang family's grandiose space colonization aligns with most people's wishes—their investment in the high-cost, low-return aerospace industry is better than competing with us for livelihood."
…………
Everyone knows aerospace is a thankless endeavor; it's an industry driven by a single nation's strength—otherwise, there wouldn't be only three countries with complete aerospace technology today.
The fundamental reason is still that it's thankless.
Ma Yilong has the support of half a Western country, yet he still struggles to make ends meet, and research funds are perpetually tight.
This shows how difficult it is for a nation to develop a space company.
The Yang family's massive investment in the aerospace field is welcomed by many.
Even though Tianzhou's space tourism project has provided them with huge funds.
But space hotels also need money; even though Daxia's aerospace industry develops quickly, the cost of a large space hotel reaches hundreds of billions.
And to meet the annual flow of several thousand passengers, Tianzhou has already built more than twenty.
The payback period for space tourism investment can be as long as seven years.
That is to say, Tianzhou is still losing money.
Although the cabinet is wary of the Yang family, it has no intention of acting against them; the fundamental reason is that the Yang family has always been exploring forward, without leveraging its status to compete with the people for profit.
This is also a kind of tacit understanding.
Of course, another reason is that the Yang family's overseas power is too strong.
Now the global number of Daxia people is rapidly approaching 2.5 billion, and Daxia people account for nearly thirty percent of the world's population.
Compared with overseas population growth, Daxia's domestic population growth has almost stalled, even showing a declining trend.
In the future, the main force to increase Daxia people's global population share will be overseas Daxia people.
That is the Yang family.
The Yang family's influence will naturally grow.
To a certain extent, the Yang family has the right to equal dialogue.
Especially, the combat power unleashed by Hidden Dragon determines that the Yang family is not merely a family.
It is a state disguised as a family.
Moreover, it is a pioneer daring to explore the future for Daxia people.
How many people and companies have fallen on the road of pioneering.
Let the second brother reap the benefits.
To a certain extent, countless people are waiting for the Yang family to fail on the path of space exploration, so they can step on Tianzhou to rise and seize the greatest victory.
What Yang Qing is doing now is to give hope to peers worldwide, making them feel that the era of interstellar navigation has truly arrived.
It's time for them to enter the field.
And the bait is the imminent arrival of the fusion era and helium-3.
Nuclear fusion will change the world's energy structure.
And helium-3 is the oil of the internal combustion engine era.
Just as oil has been important these past years, helium-3 will be equally important in the future.
What's more, nuclear fusion is the main power source for interstellar navigation.
Chemical-energy rockets are merely a transitional power source; ultimately, whether rockets or spacecraft, they will shift to nuclear-fusion energy.
In the future, whoever controls the moon could become the overlord of interstellar space.
Even if peers clearly know this is a trap, they cannot help but start acting.
Currently, the world has only two aerospace standards: one is Daxia's, the other is Yingjiang's.
And the most mature, complete industrial chain belongs to Daxia alone.
Ultimately, it's still a matter of picking a side.
Come to Daxia, you can use all the convenient conditions that come from operating a space vessel.
You can even purchase a space vessel's space hotel and personally develop space tourism.
Go to Yingjiang, and you can only watch yourself constantly fall behind, then be swallowed whole by Ma Yilong, becoming nourishment for the growth of the space fork.
Yang Qing has many thoughts that he puts forward.
His few words will also bring great changes to this world.
Yan Furong and Xue Gang never imagined they would be in a video with Yang Qing.
There will be so many twists and turns.
They didn't even have time to notice that the fan count for the Xiantaicun account was rapidly increasing.
They saw nothing but Yang Qing.
"Yang Lao, what you said makes our blood boil."
"We are very interested in lunar immigration."
"Even if it's a one-way ticket like Ma Yilong's announced Mars plan, we have no fear."
"We very much hope to become part of it."
"Of course, we also know it's difficult, but we hope to achieve this wish in our lifetime."
"So we hope the space vessel develops quickly, so we can catch this train."
Yang Qing had the robot bring over the internal video of the space vessel launch center.
The image shows two giants flying toward the moon.
So far, everything looks smooth.
Lanxing has already become a beautiful planet.
More than twenty space hotels have also become increasingly smaller.
At this moment, Yang Qing's words came through.
"Lunar immigration is a huge project."
"Don't think the space vessel looks very impressive now."
"But in the face of such a huge project as space immigration, it's still not enough."
"In the future, it's also impossible to achieve great space navigation relying solely on one space vessel."
"This requires countless peers to join in and jointly promote."
