Blue and White Society - Chapter 459

[Chapter 449 Black Ball]

The Republic of California is an area not long after independence in 2066. The country is completely controlled by capital, and it is nicknamed the Blue Freedom El Dorado, and even the ‘California Giant Enterprise’.

It is not so much a country as it is a super business alliance.

They use anything, from RMB to US dollars to their own new notes, any legal banknotes can be used here.

The depression and reconstruction after the war allowed capital to completely erode this area.

Every department in the country is controlled by one or more companies, and the military is completely managed by arms dealers and security companies, which undertake all military orders including national defense and weapons research and development.

The Ministry of Energy is undoubtedly controlled by the group that produces electricity, and land resources are planned by the real estate company.

In fact, the division of state departments is more detailed. It is completely contracted by each subsidiary company, and finally forms a huge group as a whole, which is also a national entity.

Except for state taxes, nothing is state-owned, and personal property is protected to the extreme.

And this kind of enterprise that has fully contracted the state’s official affairs is called a state business. There are a total of 142 companies, each responsible for 50 large and small state departments.

The country’s orders are their orders, and the country’s projects are their projects.

Of course, they can also distribute the state orders to other non-state-owned enterprises.

These chaebols exchanged their shares for a large number of votes from the people of the whole country. Almost all the people enjoy the dividends of one or more national businessmen. But in turn, if the people suffer too much economic loss, they will also lose a lot of votes at the same time. , and then the power is replaced by other enterprises.

This is a stately country that exchanges money for votes.

Even the National Bank is a private bank. In theory, the bank can print any pattern on the banknotes… as long as it passes the shareholders meeting.

One of the most famous examples of the power of capital is…

After the technology was made public, all the old energy companies were transformed. At that time, there were several energy companies using controllable nuclear fusion to produce electricity, competing for the energy market, and they jointly controlled the national energy.

Until the ‘Mobil’ company made a shocking transaction, bought the ’20 yuan’ banknote pattern from the National Bank for 30 years with 1.45 billion RMB.

The National Bank accepted the deal and

issued the new California twenty denomination bill bearing the ‘Mobil’ logo, making for the best advertising deal ever.

The ‘Mobil’ company has thus become an energy giant, and it took thirty years to stand out and suppress other energy companies.

When the Mobil Company made huge profits from banknote advertising, other denominations also bought “banknote naming” one after another.

They are one yuan, five yuan, ten yuan, and fifty yuan.

As for the one hundred yuan, it has not been sold yet. It is said that the price has been raised to the sky, or it will hang there forever and will not be really sold.

Today, with the addition of Mobil, the five ‘Golden Dollar Corporations’ are the five most entrenched business and political powerhouses in California.

One of the companies, ‘Tino’, dominates the aerospace industry in Canada. It has many factories on the moon, and as many as 20 spaceships travel between the earth and the moon every month.

On August 3, 2098, the transport ship ‘Heineken Beer’ was returning home, only a few hundred kilometers away from the outer atmosphere.

Speaking of this name, it is also because Tennuo Company sold the naming rights of the transport spaceship to ‘Heineken Beer’.

The surface of the spaceship was painted with an extremely eye-catching large trademark… and in other inconspicuous places, there were also many sponsor advertisements, which made the entire spaceship look particularly strange.

“Ah… there is a signal, what? The ‘Slippery Toys’ stock price has fallen so much?” A curly-haired astronaut finally picked up the signal on a radio as the spacecraft approached the earth.

Another elderly man shook his head and laughed, “I told you not to buy risky stocks. On the moon, you only have the work channel. You see, you won’t know until it’s been down for three days.” The

curly-haired astronaut sighed, thinking about his own trouble How much money is lost on investment.

The elder smiled, turned on the extravehicular camera, looked at the blue planet on the screen, and said, “Look, how beautiful the earth is. If you have money, go out and travel. The traffic is so convenient now.” The

curly-haired astronaut also stared blankly. Looking at the earth, every time I come back, I can feel a sense of peace in my heart when I see the earth.

Compared with the desolate and depressing moon that makes people crazy, the earth is so beautiful.

“Boom!” There was a sudden tremor in the cabin.

The radio receiver in the curly-haired astronaut’s hand came out suddenly and hit the bulkhead above his head, bursting out several parts immediately.

Those parts were thrown around the weightless pod, catapulting here and there.

The two hurriedly put on their helmets, and before they had time to clean up the mess, the entire spacecraft began to flip, because the earth on the camera was rotating abnormally.

“What’s the matter? What did we hit?”

“According to the pressure, the port side was hit, but the collision was minor and did not tear the outer deck.”

“Why didn’t the radar give any warning?”

“Don’t worry about it, stabilize the spacecraft immediately. “The

two quickly checked the damage to the hull, but fortunately there was no serious problem. Propelled by the flank chemical rockets, they quickly curbed the rotation and re-adjusted the return trajectory.

“Open the left observation mirror and see what it is!” the curly-haired astronaut said while packing up the broken parts.

“I have walked this channel for ten years without any problem! Which spaceship threw garbage and stayed on the channel?” the elder said angrily.

Such a slight bump, he didn’t think it was a meteorite, it was probably rubbed by some rubbish.

But when I turned on the camera, there was a black thing in the left rear, which seemed huge, and I couldn’t see what it was. After bumping into them, it quickly zoomed out.

“Play the video!”

It can be seen from the playback that a few minutes ago, nothing could be seen in the vast space, only the sun shining from behind.

When their spaceship was returning home, a black sphere with a diameter of about ten meters suddenly appeared, descended out of thin air, and hit the big “Heineken Beer” logo on their port side.

Because the spaceship moved at high speed and suddenly brushed against it, it immediately spun out of control.

But this is just a small problem, the problem is what is that black ball!

The pure black sphere has no trace of impurities, and the electromagnetic waves can’t tell what it is at all, and the thermal detection is completely blocked by pitch black.

“My God, it really appeared out of nowhere, Huaxia’s new spaceship?” the curly-haired astronaut said in horror.

“You stare at it! I’ll contact the ground immediately!” The

elder has been running the earth-moon transportation for ten years, but he has never experienced such a thing. Seeing that he is about to return, there is no exposed propeller, no light source, no The pure black spherical unit that gave any signal instantly appeared next to the spaceship, which was simply horrifying.

Especially when the black ball appeared a little bit off, they didn’t miss it, but hit it.

At this speed, as long as it is not paper, the spacecraft will be damaged, and may even be torn.

“Tino! Tenno! I’m Heineken Beer! We encountered a return accident, and an unknown object appeared on the channel!”

He said, while sending the video back to the surface.

At the same time, the curly-haired astronaut suddenly shouted: “It moved! It moved! There is a high-energy reaction!”

I saw bursts of bright light suddenly appearing on the side and back of the black sphere. Electromagnetic detection showed that it was a high-energy plasma energy impact, but This impact, without any trajectory, came out of nowhere, and appeared directly on the surface of the black ball.

The black ball is thus propelled, accelerating towards them.

However, the speed is not very fast, it is probably slower than them, and it is always attached to the rear of the transport ship.

And the path is very strange, sometimes the track deviates away from them, and sometimes it accelerates back, and it hangs around the transport ship anyway.

After the picture here was transmitted to the surface, the navigation station of Tiannuo Company was stunned. The high-level executives first condemned Huaxia, and then began to study the black ball that was generally heading towards the earth.

“It’s so strange, I didn’t see the reaction process at all, and the energy was blown out of thin air. What kind of thruster is this?”

“No reactant was detected, and the energy was directly generated. The device? Could it be that we can’t see the device?”

“It’s impossible to be completely undetectable, Huaxia’s technology is so much ahead?”

“No, no, it’s totally wrong! Huaxia doesn’t admit that it owns this flying object and asks us to make it public The picture of the Heineken beer.”

Not only was California shocked, but all countries with aerospace development capabilities have received the returned pictures one after another.

No one admitted it was their flying machine, and the thing didn’t look like a normal flying machine.

No engine, extremely low mass, not even detectable heat.

“Is this an alien spaceship?”

“Its propulsion method is too weird. It looks like a traditional chemical rocket propulsion on the surface, but the form is completely different.”

“Have you found out that the energy on its surface is directly blown up? , which means that there is a device that we cannot observe to create high-energy bombardment.”

Tiannuo’s senior management asked: “What does this mean?” The

scientist’s facial features were almost crowded together, and he said with difficulty: “I don’t know… No heat can be detected, I can only think of it as dark matter…”

The top management of Tiannuo broke out in cold sweat, and said in a deep voice: “Have you tried to establish a connection?”

If it was just a black ball, they could think it was some kind of natural substance, but this black ball was chasing around the spaceship. , can only be considered to be man-made.

“We tried it. I don’t know if the black ball has received our electromagnetic waves. Anyway, we don’t have any feedback.” The scientist said.

The senior executive’s scalp was numb, but he didn’t know what to do.

Not only him, the weapons of all countries in the world have locked on the thing that has entered the outer atmosphere, but no one dared to “shoot”.

Huaxia is in a low-earth satellite orbit, and all cruise planes in the outer atmosphere have been evacuated, and only one has approached the black ball.

To this, the black ball did not respond, and squeezed the air into the inner atmosphere.

Under close observation, it can be seen clearly that it is a pure black sphere without any variegated color.

After several high-energy explosions on the surface, after adjusting the orbit, it completely entered a state of free fall at this time, crashing into California without slowing down like a meteorite.

“It’s coming towards us…it’s intentional.” “It

did

n’t slow down. Could it be a weapon? A missile?

”

When the landing point would be the waters outside Los Angeles, they finally chose to let it hit.

“Hoo hoo…”

Outside Angel Beach in Los Angeles, a black sphere fell rapidly from a distance, slanting towards the sea.

It can be seen that there is only one small yacht in the sea area about to hit, and a woman seems to be fishing at sea.

At this time, UU reading www.sonicmtl.

com has been unable to remind that woman, and it is too late to remind.

“May God bless her…” The high-level officer who observed this scene murmured, he was more concerned about what the black ball was.

“Boom!” The black ball crashed into the sea.

Huge waves rose in an instant and spread in all directions, and the small yacht was overturned and submerged in an instant.

“Send a boat to salvage immediately! Be careful! Don’t stop calling.”

“No…wait a minute, what’s that?”

Seeing the impact site, a white mist covered a radius of one kilometer, and the clouds rolled over, forming an even bigger scene. A large sphere, a hemispherical cloud cover appears above the sea surface.

Before the spreading waves had time to reach the shore, they were covered by clouds and mist, blocking them all.

Outside the cloud and mist cover, the sea was calm, as if the inside and outside were isolated.
