As the outer s.p.a.ce development market gradually heated up, the industrial capacity of Celestial City also increased to an astounding level. Especially in the heavy industry sector as asteroid mining provided the heavy industry sector with raw materials. Wireless power transmission almost reduced the cost of electricity to the minimum. Other than the high cost of the s.p.a.ce station itself, there would be no other place on Earth more suitable for the development of the heavy industry sector.

In less than a year, Celestial’s production capacity already caught onto the New Malaysia Special District and the Ange Island Industrial Park. It was expected to surpa.s.s the combined production capacity of the two industrial parks in the next six months.

Just half a month ago, Future Mining successfully achieved smelting and production of multiple types of steel in the s.p.a.ce environment, such as Grade A, B, and C. At the same time, Future Heavy Industries also completed the integration of the technology provided by Jiang Chen and made breakthroughs in the two technical difficulties of “molybdenum neural connection device” and “power armor core chip”, taking it from theory to production.

It was now possible to build a production line of T3 Power Armor in Celestial City.

Backed by the resources of the modern world, the production and a.s.sembly technology of the apocalypse, the factors that restricted the production of power armors would no longer exist. When power armors stepped down from the a.s.sembly line, Jiang Chen could already see terrified and shocked faces.

After Jiang Chen returned to the modern world, he planned to start a large-scale expansion plan. The proposed expansion would turn the Power Armor Brigade into two Power Armor Divisions and two Mechanized Infantry Divisions! The focus of research and development of power armor would also be s.h.i.+fted from land to outer s.p.a.ce, to Gauss Rifles which were more suitable for low-gravity environments, and to replace the existing aerodynamic engine with an ion propulsion engine.

Days pa.s.sed one by one, and soon, it was June 13.

With the Outer s.p.a.ce Security Summit held by Celestial Trade approaching its start date, the top ten foreign ministers of the UA, Hua, Russia, Britain, France, Frankberg, Nippon, Arabia all arrived in Coro City. The president of Xin and the foreign minister held a grand welcoming ceremony at the airport.

Celestial Trade and the Xin government invested a lot of effort to make this meeting between the ten countries happen. The drones and the police were dispatched together, and the patrol frequency doubled to strengthen the security of Coro City, which was already extremely safe. Celestial Trade even mobilized a special combat brigade from the New Moon Island military base and temporarily deployed it in downtown Coro to ensure the safety of representatives.

The venue of the conference was set in the new parliament building in Coro, and the hotel where the representatives were staying was the Hilton next to the parliament building. The wealthy Celestial Trade directly booked out the entire building for a week. Foreign ministers and senior officials lived on the top floors, and soldiers with kinetic skeletons filled the rest of the hotel.

Everything was meant to show one thing:

The importance Celestial Trade placed on this summit.

Whether it was the emphasis on the topic to be discussed or the countries partic.i.p.ating in the summit.

A week before the summit, there was gossip and rumors about the topic of the summit. Some people claimed on social networking sites that the Outer s.p.a.ce Security Summit was likely related to the recent X2 bacteria in Finland. There were even people with more wild imaginations who linked the X2 bacteria with aliens, Area 51, the moon landing conspiracy theory, and Celestial Trade’s Mars Colonization Project together to describe X2 bacteria as Martians’ plan to fight back.

Driven by public opinion, this summit naturally attracted media attention.

However, the major media were resentful to discover that the content of the summit discussion wouldn’t be made public. Whether the content would be made available was also a topic surrounding the summit.

Everyone wanted to get first-hand information about the summit. Everyone wanted to be in the storm eye of the controversy and win the envy of their global peers. However, the voices from governments was rarely consistent, and the media couldn’t obtain any information.

What kind of issue made Celestial Trade so cautious?
