8days ago Celebrity fiction 15
The completion ceremony of the space elevator began the next day.

More than a dozen cruise ships lined up in the northern part of the Galapagos Islands, and those standing on the deck could clearly see the towering ladder.

The Ecuadorian president stood on the deck and read his speech, shook hands solemnly with Jiang Chen, chairman of Star Ring Trade, and signed his own names on the two agreements.

Starting today, the space elevator located offshore South America will be officially opened to traffic, carrying out synchronous orbital shipping business in the Western Hemisphere.

Under the gaze of the people, the vertical train was hung with the flags of the two countries and the flags of the Star Rings trade, slowly accelerating to the sky, and began its first journey to open to traffic.

To celebrate this great moment, fireworks were set off in major cities in Ecuador at the same time, and people sitting in front of the TV turned on champagne, just like celebrating a festival, celebrating the continent's ushering in a new era.

On behalf of the people of Ecuador, I thank you for everything you have done.At the end of the completion ceremony, the Ecuadorian President firmly held Jiang Chen's right hand and said in a earnest tone, once again offering you high respect, you will always be friends of the people of Ecuador!

Media from all over the world have used their cameras to record this historic scene.

Starting today, freighters from the Mediterranean will not have to cross the Atlantic Ocean through the freighter, cross the Panama Canal, and then cross the Pacific Ocean to the far-reaching Panu Islands.

The Port of Machena, which is above the synchronous orbit, will serve as an affiliated port of Star Ring City, undertake synchronous orbit transportation services from the Western Hemisphere.

……

Three days have passed since the completion ceremony, and more than a dozen cruise ships parked on the sea dispersed one after another.

A private yacht approaches the island of Machena, not far from the space elevator, which is located on the island with a sentry tower and a small port, and you can see soldiers on duty from a distance.

The nationality of those soldiers is naturally not Ecuador, but a new country from the other side of the Pacific Ocean.

Under the agreement between Star Ring Trade and Ecuador, the Island of Machena will be leased to Star Ring Trade for a price of S$1 million for a lease period of fifty years.

If no accident occurs in fifty years, the contract will be automatically renewed for ten years.

This small island located in the northern part of the Galapagos Islands is close to the equatorial line. The island covers an area of ​​130 square kilometers, basically no development, no one lives on the island, and only one lonely extinct volcano.

The surrounding waters are deeper, it is an excellent natural port and a natural scenic spot.

As early as the New America War, the island delivered the New Country from Ecuador, serving as the strategic fulcrum of the New Country in South America, providing supplies to submarines and marines active in the waters near North America.

With the end of the New and American War, the Star Ring Trade gradually withdrew its troops from the island. Now only 50 people are left, mainly responsible for patroling this sea area, maintaining the safety of space elevator projects, and combating pirates.

Very beautiful island.Standing on the yacht, Rocky said with his eyes narrowed, as a military base, it was a waste of resources.

The military base is only temporary, and it will be more beautiful in two years.Jiang Chen smiled faintly, paused for a moment and continued, "We will build a floating island around this small island, expand its area by about ten times, and then move into the population, and build it into Penglai City, South America, a free and open port."

The aluminum alloy and titanium materials required to build floating islands can be obtained through space elevators, especially foam aluminum alloys that require rare earths, which produce considerable production on the moon.

Is that true? Then I have to take this sentence to heart.Rocky also said with a smile.

In fact, even without Jiang Chen's words, he was ready early.

All idle land on nearby Galapagos Islands, such as Isabella Island, San Salvador Island, etc., was bought by the Boston Consortium half a year ago.

Rocky's idea is simple, if Machena Island will flourish with the Star Ring Trade, then Isabella just needs to follow in the footsteps of Machena Island.

In fact, for now, this investment is no longer a loss.

As soon as the space elevator was completed, the value of the land he acquired increased by more than dozens of times.

Considering that eating should not be too ugly, he reduced his holdings of some of the land certificates to Boston Bank's partners. Now the entire Galapagos archipelago has been monopolized by real estate developers from Wall Street and Financial Avenue in Coro.

As for Ecuadorian investors, at most they are jealous but dare not complain.

Not to mention them, even the government behind them is just a small fish and shrimp in the face of such huge international capital.

With a stomp of his feet, the economic index of such a small country will be jumped at the second level, and all presidents and ministers of the economy will be blamed for stepping down.

If I go bankrupt, at least leave a way out for my grandchildren.Feeling the oncoming sea breeze, Rocky said with his eyes narrowed.

Don't be so pessimistic.Jiang Chen smiled faintly and said in a relaxed tone, our plan is perfect, with the new Fed as your backing, quantum computers provide big data support, and the future Renmin Bank will also provide you with the greatest help. What else do you have to worry about?

To put it nicely, so many shields are on the back, but aren’t we charging in the front?

Rocky smiled bitterly in his heart, but said nothing.

Just yesterday, under the guidance of future human biomedical medical staff, he injected DNA telomeres with a drug.

Although no obvious changes have occurred yet, he feels that his physical condition has improved a lot.

This is specifically reflected in blood sugar and blood pressure.

His personal doctor even said in surprise that his physical condition had returned to the level of at least forty years old.

Pessimism before victory is my habit. It is more practical than whether to open a bottle of champagne when celebrating victory or consider what to do after failure.Rocky shrugged and stretched out his right hand, wishing me a good journey.

Bon Voyage.Holding his right hand and shaking it, Jiang Chen smiled, "The future President of the World Bank, I'm waiting for your good news."

Two days later, a silver sky G100 disappeared into the sky.

With a secret drafted contract, Rocky returns to Manhattan Island in New York.

Since the reconstruction of Manhattan Island, the Boston Consortium has moved here from Boston Financial Avenue, and the former Morgan Building has been replaced with a new sign as the headquarters of Boston First Bank.

Without doing much stop, Rocky, who returned to Wall Street, immediately sent an invitation letter to the big capitalists on Wall Street, inviting them to discuss major events.

Companies like Chase Bank that have close contacts with Future Bank have been invited without exception.

The meeting lasted for a whole week and no one knew what the specific discussion was.

What the outside world saw was just an announcement led by the First Boston Bank and collectively endorsed by Wall Street tycoons after the meeting ended.

In order to promote global economic and trade exchanges and hedge against a series of potential risks to the world economy, Boston First Bank and 20 banks and investment banks, including Chase Bank, announced the establishment of World United Savings.

As soon as the announcement came out, the world was shocked...
