Even if I told him at that time, he really couldn't do anything except get distracted.
"I guess we'll only be able to see it in documentaries now."
Lin Li chuckled.
"It's alright, you're here for this most important moment, aren't you?"
"Yes, the most important scene."
During the time the two were chatting idly.
A middle-aged man wearing glasses strode in from the entrance of the exhibition hall.
"President Lin! Director Guo, hello, hello."
Lin Li quickly stepped forward.
"You must be Director Wang? Hello, hello."
Guo Fan quickly followed suit and shook hands with him.
The man who appeared before Lin Li was named Wang Xin, the director of the Wenchang Launch Center.
Although his position was not high, he was one of the key figures at the launch site.
He was also the one who spearheaded this collaboration with Xinghuo.
He also attaches great importance to this collaboration with Xinghuo.
"President Lin has filled the gap in our launch site by not having a private satellite launch this time."
The so-called "as long as you have enough modifiers" applies.
It will definitely fill the gap.
Lin Li laughed heartily after hearing this.
"Director Wang went too far. I'm just doing my bit for the aerospace industry."
Hear this.
Another staff member standing next to Director Wang also chimed in with a smile.
"Coco's help is not just a small contribution; Xinghuo is giving us their full support."
In addition to the satellite launch, Lin Li also donated 500 million yuan to the Wenchang Satellite Launch Center to help improve its logistical facilities, including the exhibition hall.
This amount of money isn't a lot, but it's not a small amount either.
More importantly, logistics is closely related to the people at the launch center.
It was naturally welcomed.
The two chatted for a while, and Wang Xin clearly knew the purpose of President Lin's visit.
No nonsense either.
"President Lin, the rocket has completed final assembly. Would you like to go take a look?"
Lin Li came to this launch site specifically for this purpose, so naturally he wanted to see it.
He nodded quickly.
"of course."
"Let's go see the real rocket!"
Soon, guided by the staff, everyone arrived at the rocket launch tower. Wang Xin had his own business to attend to, so he took his leave first.
Lin Li and the others didn't pay any attention.
We're all people who get things done, there's no need to worry about so much nonsense.
As the distance decreased, the rocket's massive size gradually came into their view.
Compared to the models in the science museum, the rocket in front of us is undoubtedly breathtaking.
Every inch of its metal exudes an aura of power and technology, and every weld mark tells a story of humanity's desire to explore the universe.
Even though Lin Li had imagined how shocking this scene would be before he came, seeing the rocket in person still gave him a jolt.
Guo Fan was already taking out his phone and snapping photos to record his current feelings.
"No wonder there are hundreds of thousands of people coming to watch each launch; it's truly spectacular."
Lin Li shielded his eyes from the sunlight with his hand and carefully examined the rocket.
"So we'll be able to see satellite images from space tonight?"
Su Shanshan's expression was almost identical to Lin Li's.
The staff member next to him nodded quickly upon hearing this.
"Yes, everything is ready, so you can rest assured."
Lin Li nodded.
"With pillars of the nation like you, what is there to worry about?"
The staff member next to him quickly waved his hand and said seriously.
"President Lin is too kind. I'm just doing what I can for the country's development."
Then, he added with a smile.
"Could we take a photo together later, Mr. Lin?"
President Lin glanced at him, somewhat surprised.
He really didn't expect that this aerospace worker in work clothes could also be a fan of Spark.
"Of course! Want to play Spark games too? What do you usually play?"
Once Lin Li started talking, the staff seemed to have opened a floodgate of conversation.
They stopped pretending and started chatting right away.
"I play more Battlefront Girls, which has quite a lot of sci-fi elements, but the rockets don't have enough screen time."
The two then chatted for a few more minutes.
Lin Licai learned that this guy got into Starfire because of the space elevator animation in version 1.1 of Girls Frontline.
This is quite surprising.
Chapter 176 Rocket Launch and Inspiration
"That's around the same time I got into this hobby."
Guo Fan then joined the conversation.
"Oh? You play too?"
Does playing games online count as playing games?
"Go to hell."
Amidst a burst of laughter.
The film crews of "Spark" and "The Wandering Earth" arrived at two different viewing locations.
Several machines of various sizes were all aimed at the launch tower.
This recording assignment was very important to them.
After all, this footage can only be recorded once, so whether it's good or bad depends on today.
So Lin Li was quite nervous.
The satellite on this rocket was originally a surprise prepared by Spark for global players during the New Year's celebration.
Later, when I was talking to Guo Fan about the global release, he found out about it.
He insisted on getting on the bus.
So this rocket has the Spark logo on the left and the Wandering Earth logo on the right.
Therefore, the filming crew had to be in a specific position to capture their logo.
Fortunately, there's no need to worry about these things when the satellite is in the sky.
Because the satellite's functions are actually very simple: a screen and a camera.
If it goes well.
This will be one of the core elements of the New Year's Carnival, and also part of the post-credits scene in The Wandering Earth.
of course.
Even setting aside this meaning, simply observing this launch...
It's something to look forward to.
All eyes were fixed on the rocket that was about to take off.
The loudspeakers inside the venue began a countdown.
The atmosphere at the launch site became tense yet exciting.
"Ten, nine, eight..."
As the countdown progressed, a huge launch site seemed to appear before Lin Li's eyes.
"Three, two, one, ignition!"
At the commander's order, dazzling flames erupted from the bottom of the rocket, and a tremendous roar instantly resounded through the sky.
The rocket slowly lifted off the ground, its force seemingly tearing through the air and leaving all constraints behind.
Shocking, absolutely shocking.
The rocket wasn't going very fast at first, and with the heat wave hitting us, even with noise-canceling headphones on, we could still clearly hear the roar of the rocket engine.
An unparalleled sense of power that makes one tremble all over.
This is the pinnacle of human technology.
It allows people to clearly feel the power of civilization.
Watching a rocket slowly ascend into the sky, one can't help but ponder where it will take humanity.
~~~
On the way back, Lin Li still couldn't hide his excitement.
"Every rocket launch is a step that humanity takes into the depths of the universe. Our dreams, like these rockets, will one day reach those distant stars."
"Science fiction is actually an eternal topic for mankind, and we can really try to make some moves in this area."
After listening to Lin Li's words, Su Shanshan smiled and said.
"What, another inspiration?"
Lin Li nodded.
"I do have some ideas, but I need to think about the specifics further."
Lin Li opened his phone and casually created a document in the car.
for him.
Ideas are something you should save whenever you have them, whether they will eventually become part of a game is another matter.
"Let me tell you a story."
Su Shanshan perked up and sat up straight.
"Okay, I love listening to your stories."
Seeing Su Shanshan suddenly become serious, Lin Li added with a smile.
"It just popped into my head."
As Lin Li spoke, he organized his thoughts.
"The story goes that one day, a group of aliens suddenly descended upon Earth. They didn't steal or rob, they had no malicious intent; they were simply there to sell their product—a type of civilian mecha..."
