Capítulo 777: Chapter 257: Space-Based Interception Concept Built on Infinite Defense

Get the whole world involved… well, that’s obviously a joke.

It’s actually like retail investors playing the stock market. Most countries capable of handling finance are developed countries.

Therefore, for most countries, financial markets are not that important.

At least not as important as Wall Street is to the West.

But the person who said this clearly meant the threat seriously. Spending money doesn’t matter, but absolute security must be guaranteed!

No capital is willing to let a massive fortune be held by someone else. At least not at this time!

“Yes, tell the one living in the White House to stop sleeping. He needs to urgently summon the Huaxia representative to express our stance. We’ve already conceded too much; this time, we absolutely cannot allow any compromise!”

Clearly, this viewpoint was recognized by everyone.

Because today, unusually, the conference room did not erupt into arguments due to someone expressing extreme opinions.

…

Huaxia, Yanbei University, International Mathematics Research Center.

After sending off the team of jumping characters, Qiao Yu did not relax but began finalizing the list of the project team.

All the data from this test has been sealed, and he doesn’t need to write the report. Engineers from the Computing Research Institute and Chenlong Super Cloud will naturally compile the summary report.

It’s not that Qiao Yu is being lazy; it’s mainly because it was already decided that the project team selection list would be announced in the afternoon. It wouldn’t do to delay this important task because of a live broadcast.

Currently, the quantum simulation calculation capacity isn’t strong enough. With enough personnel, this technology can continue to flourish.

Quantum computing technology that can’t impact the entire blockchain network is incomplete.

Actually, most of the candidate selections have been determined.

For instance, Zheng Zefeng is responsible for mathematics, Zhang Xiaoli for supporting the quantum physics theory, and engineer Luo Qixun for supporting quantum algorithms.

There were still two spots left, and Qiao Yu was still undecided.

He wasn’t unsure about whom to choose, but about the team composition, torn between focusing more on theory or on application.

Exploring theoretical aspects is easier, but if leaning towards application, it becomes much harder.

The recently concluded global live test is proof. He stayed up until five in the morning yesterday to get everything ready.

If they are to truly focus on applications in the future, various tests will need to be conducted. Just thinking about it is exhausting. But the advantage is that applications are definitely more lucrative than simply focusing on theory.

Qiao Yu doesn’t want to be overly burdened at a young age. After finally achieving results, he should take some time to rest.

Especially when focusing on theory, he just needs to direct others to work. Deliver some results every now and then, and he can have a relaxed three to five years.

After these three to five years, he’ll be in his twenties and can start striving again.

He is already very successful. Why not enjoy life while young, instead of waiting until old age when he can’t enjoy eating or playing?

In a few months, it will be winter break, and he is currently in a relationship. Although high school was busy, during winter break, Xia Keke can always find some time.

Not to mention, Xia Keke is taking the college entrance exam next year. Attending university in Beijing is a certainty.

Apart from Xia Keke’s capabilities, with his current influence, Xia Keke could definitely choose between Yanbei and Huaqing.

Although Qiao Yu did not experience complete college life, he thinks he can enjoy it with Keke, and it would be free from research and academic pressures.

Thinking about how they could enjoy all of Beijing together, Qiao Yu was really looking forward to it.

But if he’s busy with research, managing a ton of tasks every day, it won’t be as easygoing.

With this thought, Qiao Yu casually circled another name on the list.

It’s settled; including him, there are four professors focusing on mathematical theory and one algorithm engineer forming the research team.

The list is set to be announced at two in the afternoon. Just then, Zheng Xiweng entered his office with a gloomy face.

“Hey? Uncle Zheng, did someone offend you? Why the expression?” Noticing immediately that something was off with Zheng Xiweng, Qiao Yu quickly asked.

Reading people was one of Qiao Yu’s strongest abilities since childhood.

Moreover, Zheng Xiweng had always kept his emotions well-controlled around Qiao Yu, never showing any extreme mood swings.

“No one offended me; who would offend me?”

Zheng Xiweng took a deep breath, calmed down his emotions, and continued, “But there is indeed a bit of trouble. On the other end, there’s a threat. If any technology threatens the financial security system of the United States, it may lead to unrestricted conflict!”

Qiao Yu tilted his head slightly, staring at Zheng Xiweng, and asked in surprise, “Unrestricted conflict? Uh… do they really plan to use that bad thing?”

Zheng Xiweng replied, “If this isn’t just tough talk without substance, then we cannot rule out that possibility. Maybe this time they’re really pushed to the edge.”

Well, a real big firework.

“Haha, doesn’t that just show we’ve touched the tiger’s tail!” Qiao Yu said happily.

Although Qiao Yu clearly didn’t realize the gravity of the situation, Zheng Xiweng still nodded in agreement.

It was known from the start that this was indeed a sore spot for the other side.

“So can’t we intercept it completely?” Qiao Yu curiously asked.

“Intercept what?” Zheng Xiweng, not keeping up with Qiao Yu’s line of thought, instinctively asked.
