184: Chapter 184 The Nine Heavens Mystic Maiden, Reaching for the Moon! Act Two, about to begin!!
They had previously thought that the Spring Festival Gala's special program would feature some new tricks; otherwise, it wouldn't be possible to make such a big fuss, holding a real-name lottery across the entire country.
But before today, no one could have imagined that the Lunar New Year Koi was actually the qualification to land on the moon!
Especially those who found it troublesome and didn't sign up for the Koi activity—now they are regretting it so much they could die!
Meanwhile, other calmer viewers looked at the five people on the screen, filled with confusion.
The two female astronauts were fine, and the other armored soldiers from the Orbital Assault Company were also understandable.
But taking an old Academician and two ordinary Chinese citizens to the moon together? What is this all about?
Just then, during the live broadcast of the Spring Festival Gala, Reporter Sa Ning continued to host with a smile.
"After introducing the five special passengers, I think everyone must have some confusion in their hearts!"
"That is, where does our China get the confidence to dare to take Academician Sun and two ordinary young people to the moon during our first lunar landing project!"
"This answer,"
"Is not far away, but right before your eyes!"
Reporter Sa Ning pointed to the Exoskeleton Armor on his body, his face showing excitement.
"Some observant audience friends may have already noticed that the 'Kunlun' Exoskeleton Armor we are wearing this time is a bit different from before!"
"Doesn't it look more upright and stylish?"
"Yes!"
"This is the second-generation individual full-coverage Exoskeleton Armor newly developed by our China Supreme Military Region!"
"The performance of this second-generation armor completely crushes the previous generation!"
"Especially the newly integrated aerospace system, which has achieved major breakthroughs and improvements in life support, pressure resistance, and overload resistance!"
"According to the data from the simulated human spaceflight tests that have already passed perfectly!"
"This second-generation armor is completely sufficient to allow ordinary people who have not undergone any training!"
"To also become astronauts and go into space!"
The audience gathered in front of their TVs or in the live broadcast rooms had already developed some immunity to shock after the unbelievable events just now.
But after hearing Reporter Sa Ning's words, everyone could not help but be deeply shocked.
"Second generation, second generation, second generation! Why is it the second generation again!!!"
"Publicize one generation, equip one generation, keep one generation secret, and develop one generation!"
"Longbao, confess yourself! Don't make me kneel and beg you!"
"Are you already developing the fifth-generation Kunlun Armor!!!"
"Need to ask?! This is obvious!!"
"If the second generation can be taken out and publicized, what does that mean? It means it's already outdated!"
"Coach!"
"I want the fifth-generation Xuan-Nu Fighter Jet, I want the fifth-generation Kunlun Armor!!"
Chinese netizens were noisy in the comments and bullet screens. The Spring Festival Gala had just opened, and two trump cards had already popped out. The official Chinese authorities had really kept too much from everyone!
There is no reason for a family to have a fortune and still make their own children live a hard life!
It's a pity that all the members of the second phase of the Classic of Mountains and Seas Project were watching the Spring Festival Gala on TV and couldn't see these comments and bullet screens, otherwise they would surely be laughing and crying.
These Chinese netizens really have too much imagination!
After Reporter Sa Ning's explanation of the second-generation armor, the audience finally understood where the official Chinese confidence came from, and they all felt relieved.
Along with this came a strong anticipation for the upcoming live broadcast of the lunar landing!
Just at this moment, the Spring Festival Gala broadcast screen suddenly switched, and Host Li Yong appeared on camera.
"Audience friends, there are 10 minutes left!"
"20:00 sharp!"
"We will board ten 'Xuan-Nu' second-generation Aerospace Fighter jets and broadcast the entire process of China's first lunar landing project!"
"Next, we will board the planes one by one!"
As the words fell, the director pulled the camera back. The Nantianmen Launch Center was brightly lit, and ten sci-fi fighter jets were shining on the tarmac.
In addition to the Chinese ace pilots in the main and co-pilot seats, two commanders, two Spring Festival Gala hosts, twenty armored soldiers from the Orbital Assault Company tasked with setting up the lunar branch venue, and five special passengers boarded from the belly hatch one after another.
Soon, the time was approaching 20:00, and a countdown began to sound in the Spring Festival Gala broadcast.
"10!"
"9!"
"8!"
"..."
All the audience held their breath, watching the live screen nervously.
"3!"
"2!"
"1!"
The countdown reached zero!
"Boom!!! ——————"
The engines roared, and the power engines of the ten Xuan-Nu Fighter Jets instantly spewed azure flames composed of high-energy plasma, simultaneously rising from the ground and hovering at an altitude of 30 meters.
Ten seconds later, the vector engines turned, the nose of the fighter jets turned, and they rapidly climbed upwards at an 80-degree angle. They soon disappeared into the night sky!
At this time, the Spring Festival Gala broadcast screen switched back to the CCTV Spring Festival Gala main venue in Beijing. Unlike before, there was a small interface in the bottom right corner of the screen, which was displaying the overall progress of the lunar landing project through a 3D virtual diagram!
At the Spring Festival Gala main venue, Host Kang Guang forcibly tore his gaze away from the big screen on the right side of the main venue, swallowed his saliva, and continued to host.
"Next, please enjoy the second program of our Spring Festival Gala,"
"The song 'China Taste' performed by Phoenix Miracle!"
Soon, Phoenix Miracle took the stage in grand attire, ready to start singing the song according to the previous rehearsal. Suddenly, they were shocked to find that all the audience members present were tilting their heads, staring intently at the big screen on the right side of the Spring Festival Gala scene!
From time to time, they whispered to each other and discussed excitedly, treating the two of them as air.
On the big screen, the progress of the lunar landing was being displayed!
Seeing this scene, the two from Phoenix Miracle were dumbfounded. This... should they still sing or not?
At this moment, Director Ha Wen's anxious voice came through the headset.
"Start singing, start immediately, definitely don't stop!"
Consequently, the eight programs of the first act, "New Spring Arrives," began in a super strange atmosphere. On stage, you perform your part; off stage, they watch their part, mainly highlighting a mutual non-interference.
Actually, the song and dance programs were okay, but the main issue was the sketch comedy programs; it was simply impossible to perform!
In the sketch "Jump If You Want to Jump" performed by Pan Changhe and Gaze, Pan Changhe said a line he thought was super brilliant, but the audience didn't react. He said another line he thought was super provocative, but still no reaction. He was so awkward that he almost used his toes to gouge through the Spring Festival Gala stage.
Pan Changhe was so angry! This is simply performing a sketch for the air! Perform a hammer!
Fortunately, Director Ha Wen kept comforting the actors' emotions through the headset, which allowed this strange Spring Festival Gala to continue.
At this time, Director Ha Wen was also somewhat wanting to cry but had no tears. She, the Spring Festival Gala director, suddenly became a psychological counselor for the actors—what kind of situation is this?
If we must talk about psychological counseling, she, the Spring Festival Gala director who had meticulously prepared the programs for so long, was the one who most needed comfort!
Director Ha Wen took a deep breath and comforted herself in her heart. Usually, when people finish dinner and do other things, they like to turn on the TV to listen to the sound, making the home seem more lively. Don't these programs now serve this purpose...
Soon, the eight awkward programs ended, and the time arrived at 21:00. Next will be the second act, New Joy Arrives: Golden Crow Announces Good News, Earth Flows with Gold! ... (Please use Love to Power!)
