Chapter 323 Life lasts only thirty thousand days Chen Lin, Lin Yun and their group returned to Hongshan Base according to the original plan. At this time, Blue Starfish was still in the stage of raging ocean storms. When Lin Yun turned on the monitoring equipment system, he saw only a black screen except for the white mist. "The ocean storm this time was too severe. Looking at the feedback data from the detection device on the system, the wind speed in some areas even exceeded 60 meters per second. This has exceeded the concept of wind level 17." Lin Yun and Chen Lin were sitting in the minibus. Lin Yun looked at the tablet in front of him and spoke to Chen Lin. Apart from the weather maps provided by the satellite, there were only a few data that could be seen. There are not many data detected by ground equipment. A large number of equipment previously set up were swept away and damaged by the strong wind, and black screens were the norm. "How much investment do we have in Blue Starfish?" "I'm not sure about the total investment. I estimate it should be around 10 billion. After all, the construction of offshore platforms alone consumes a lot of various building materials and manpower." Lin Yun said aloud, looking through the tablet for a while, as if she had found some kind of news bulletin, she pushed the tablet in front of Chen Lin. The tablet displayed - "Blue Sea Star suffered an unprecedented natural disaster, and the Blue Sea Base suffered serious losses!"
Chen Lin conveniently clicked on the news announcement. The above is a few seconds of footage taken by the camera device. It is a scene of part of the offshore platform being blown away by the hurricane... Several gifs are past, and below is the satellite. Photographed weather maps and some predictions, storm levels and other miscellaneous things. Chen Lin continued to scroll down a few times and saw the official reply in the announcement - "According to statistics, the direct economic loss of this ocean storm is 32 billion yuan, and the indirect loss is upwards of 400 billion yuan, mainly concentrated in Blue Star. Related buildings and research facilities..." "It's a really heavy loss." Chen Lin stopped when he saw this, frowned and looked at Lin Yundao: "After all, we have invested time and money in Blue Sea Star, because an ocean storm will start all over again, and I'm afraid there will be a lot of resistance then." "Yes." Lin Yun nodded and said in agreement: "Originally, the association had reservations about whether to invest a lot of materials in the development of Blue Starfish. It is estimated that after this ocean storm incident, they will jump to the other side..." "Actually, you don't have to worry about this." Chen Lin said with a smile: "The association is not decided by one or two people. It is a group and an organization. Whether to develop Blue Starfish will never be decided by a small group of people who object to it." "I know, but I'm still worried." Lin Yun said worriedly: "This ocean storm almost destroyed 95% of our buildings in Blue Sea Star, and even the buildings on the seabed were not spared. Billions of dollars of capital investment were wasted in this way. Piao, if the opposition to continued development is louder, it will inevitably cause us to reduce the scale of the subsequent development of Blue Starfish." "In that case, it's up to you people." Chen Lin was silent for a few seconds, then slowly said: "You and Blue Star's development team need to analyze the necessity of development - for example, you make a report and submit it to explain what we have obtained from Blue Star What happened? The wreckage of the spacecraft sent up by the Leviathan creatures will be extremely helpful to our future technological development..." "This is indeed necessary." Lin Yun nodded, "If it doesn't work, I'm afraid I will have to ask my father to help." Chen Lin looked at Lin Yun in surprise. He was somewhat unbelievable that such words would come out of Lin Yun's mouth - after all, this woman always felt independent, and she never relied on her father to do anything. Lin Yun seemed to realize this, raised his head and showed a bright smile towards Chen Lin: "Scientific research always needs some support. Only at this time did I realize that my own strength is weak... In fact, the words of my father, General Lin, may not be as practical as those of you." Chen Lin also smiled slightly when he heard this, and then he heard Lin Yun say: "If the situation is not right then, you must You have to intervene! The research on Blue Sea Star cannot be interrupted. Our research on pioneer technology has broken through many difficulties. If we can completely absorb the technology trees and technological power of the pioneers, it will be almost impossible to improve our technology. It’s timeless!” "Technology, including weapons and equipment, covers a wide range of areas." "I believe the association will ultimately make a reasonable judgment." Chen Lin did not directly agree to Lin Yun's request, nor did he express his rejection clearly. He just responded lightly. He pushed the tablet in front of Lin Yun and said: "The association needs to send more talents here next." good."
"I may have to go find Ding Yi next." Lin Yun asked confusedly why he was looking for Ding Yi. Chen Lin drew a circle in the air with his left hand and said with a smile: "Of course it is to study the portal." "Even if you can't open the portal independently, you can still find a way to open multiple portals." "Aren't you worried that if Professor Ding really figures out how to open the portal, you will lose your job?" Chen Lin's response to Lin Yun's sharp topic was very indifferent. "Do you know where I was six months ago? I was a hardworking office worker in a certain office building!" "They say they are office workers, white-collar workers, but in fact they don't earn enough money to spend." "Salary is just an average for most people. A few thousand yuan is not enough in Shanhai City. When I rent a house, it costs me more than 2000 yuan a month, and my food costs more than a thousand yuan a month. As a man, I have very little Buying clothes is enough to wear them. My monthly expenditures in this category are relatively small, but I still have to give my parents 2000 every month, right? After all, I have a little girl, so I need to give her some pocket money. of……" Chen Lin smiled and said: "After counting all the miscellaneous things, I was also a standard Moonlight Clan at that time." "Now that the association has developed a portal to the Origin Star, it is also a good thing for me." "I haven't lost my ability. The Origin Star is such a good place, and the benefits and benefits are far better than those here on Earth. At the worst, I will be transferred to the other side to work as a small translator. If not, I can be a translator or something like that. Yes, my life is much more nourishing than before." Lin Yun was stunned for several seconds. After she came to her senses, she smiled softly: "You are really thoughtful." "Life lasts for thirty thousand days, and life and death only last for a moment." Chen Lin smiled and said to Lin Yun: "I just want to live my life well and live in a down-to-earth manner. Everything else is the icing on the cake. I am happy if I have more, and I don't regret if I have less. .” "Only people like me are willing to do this." He suddenly changed the topic and said to Lin Yun: "Try trying it with someone else. If you really have the ability like me, I am afraid that you will not choose to report to the association at all, but will try every means to do it alone." Eat this secret." Lin Yun looked at Chen Lin with a smile, but felt that what he said was absolutely true - a man like him would probably be impossible to find even in a million. She just hoped that the association would not betray his trust in the future. (End of this chapter)
