Chapter 284 : 234 Moon Landing Dream
Chapter 284 : 234 Moon Landing Dream
"Ladies and gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen, the footage you are currently watching comes from Qiankun City Satellite Launch Center, where our Huaguo TV Channel One and News Channel are bringing you a live broadcast of the launch site for the Charming No. 1 rocket, and the launch is just 2 hours away."
"As you can see, the audience on-site is brimming with enthusiasm, the crowd of onlookers is vast, and it's so packed over here we can barely move."
"However, this is understandable, since this is our first attempt at a manned space moon landing mission."
"After several decades, humanity has once again embarked on a journey of exploration to our only companion in the cold cosmos. At the same time, this marks the first realization of our Huaguo's thousand-year dream of landing on the moon, and everyone's feelings must be extremely excited."
"Now, let's randomly interview some of the audience members here on-site and see what they think about this moon landing mission."
"Hello there, young student?"
"Hi, sister!"
The one that appeared on the live television footage was an incredibly cute little girl with divine looks. As soon as she entered the frame, even the camera seemed to become cuter.
[Wow, what a cute girl!]
[She could be in the top ten classic shots]
[Is she a celebrity, hey]
[I was wondering where my daughter had gone off to; turns out she ran into Huaguo TV's frame]
"I'm just so excited right now, super excited!"
The girl waved to the camera with ease: "Mom! I'm on TV! Did you see me?"
[So cute, wahh, my wahh]
[Mom saw, mom saw, love you daughter MUA]
"Nuo Nuo, what's there for you to be excited about, don't you often appear on TV?"
A boy's voice emerged from the frame.
At this moment, the boy's face flashed by, but it immediately sparked intense discussion among netizens.
[My goodness, who's this handsome kid? You guys really know how to pick interviewees]
[Can I adopt both the son and daughter?]
[They are grown up now, what do you still want to adopt]
[That's exactly why, because they've grown up, so there's no need to worry, haha]
After being scolded by the boy, the girl stuck out her tongue, made a cute little expression, scratched her head, and said with a laugh:
"Eh heh, I forgot about that... Sister Qiao En, Sister Qiao En, why don't you say a few words!"
"Me, um... should I speak?"
The television camera revealed a girl who looked very plain, with braided pigtails and glasses. At this time, the reporter also passed the microphone to her:
"May I ask, what do you think about the imminent launch and ascent of the Charming No. 1?"
"Uh, I'm, I'm just really excited."
"I hope that Charming No. 1 can successfully complete the moon landing mission... and at the same time, I also hope that next year, I can be admitted to my dream university!"
The young girl clenched her fists, seemingly making some form of resolution; it seemed she also had fiery aspirations.
"It seems our student here is so invested in Charming No. 1 that she's willing to spare time from her busy exam preparation to watch the rocket launch. The affection our nationals have for Charming No. 1 is clear for all to see. We also wish our student all the best for next year's exams, and hope she tops the charts with excellent results!"
He had become more reticent.
...
Was it because he was left out last night, busy whispering with Nuo Nuo, and it hurt him a bit too much?
"Youyou, Dad wants to discuss something with you, well, it's not really a discussion."
"What is it..."
"After this outing, comparing myself to Uncle Xia's abilities, your dad has deeply realized his own uselessness."
Fang Guanghui said earnestly, "Even though I've always relied on Youyou, there will come a day when you will leave my side. I need to learn to be independent and grow on my own. I wasn't so bad before you came along, otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to win over your mom, right?"
"Ah, Dad, you don't need to prove anything..."
"Don't try to persuade me, Youyou, I've made up my mind, and my heart won't be swayed by anyone else."
Fang Guanghui pursed his lips, his gaze steadfast, "Everyone has to grow up eventually. I'm already over 30 years old; I can't always be a child who never grows up. I have to let you all see, let Uncle Xia see, that I, Fang Guanghui, can also become a remarkable adult."
...
These words... why do they sound so familiar?
It's so strange.
Fang You fell silent for a long moment, then lifted his head to ask, "So, have you thought about what you want to do in the future?"
"Are you planning to deepen your path as a civil servant, to make progress, work hard, and strive for a promotion? If you're aiming for a department head position, your current job is too leisurely; you might need a lateral transfer to another grass-roots or administrative position to strive."
"But you might be a bit too old for that... Or are you actually planning to start a business? If so, have you researched and prepared any industries to enter? If it's none of this, I guess you might want to become an independent Paru Trainer?"
"But to win, you can't be fixated on beliefs, and turning a hobby into work can also be very painful. I think..."
Seeing Fang You continuing non-stop, Fang Guanghui seemed a bit anxious.
"Ah? That fast... don't be in such a hurry to push me, I just have the determination; I haven't decided what to do yet!"
"..."
This is my dad.
Fang You sighed helplessly.
Two hours later, as the sky grew dark.
Over the launch pad, the broadcast carried a clear and firm countdown command: "5, 4, 3, 2, 1, ignition!"
In an instant, roaring flames erupted from the base of the rocket, and with a deafening roar, a powerful thrust freed the rocket from its bonds, breaking the chains of Earth's gravity. Flames filled the night sky, illuminating the darkness like a gigantic dragon soaring upward, leaving behind a dazzling trail.
Thousands of spectators at the viewing platform, at a safe distance, either through telescopes or by looking directly at the heavens, witnessed this historic moment. The children cheered excitedly, while the adults watched this awe-inspiring scene, with many moved to tears of excitement.
As the rocket climbed higher, it became a smaller and smaller point of light in the sky until it merged with the sea of stars.
"Youyou, I'm telling you!"
Xia Nuo stretched out her hand along the trajectory of the rocket's ascent, smiling at Fang You as she said:
"We should also ride a rocket like this to the moon together in the future, okay?"
"Okay."
Fang You nodded, "No problem."
