It had to be said, teaching astronomy and geography to people who didn't have any foundation was a very difficult matter.
Xu Yi spoke for a while on stage, but the reporters and the crowd were all stunned. Their heads were filled with confusion, not seeming like they understood at all.
Of course, Xu Yi didn't expect them to understand right now. The reason why he said all this was just to give these people a basic idea.
After half an hour, Xu Yi stopped.
The crowd was silent for a while before the reporter from the « Banta Times » suddenly stood up.
"Chairman Xu, you … …"
As soon as he opened his mouth, he closed it again and had a hesitant look on his face.
Xu Yi nodded at him with a smile, "Just ask if you don't understand."
That reporter hesitated for a while before shaking his head. It was like he had made a large decision as he asked, "Chairman Xu, you said that we are standing on a planet and the sun above us is an even bigger planet. Moreover, the planet under our feet should be revolving around the sun and the stars in the night sky should be giant balls of fire like the sun. Although I don't understand these things, I feel that your words are quite reasonable.
Only ….. Only, where did you learn these things? "
This question attracted the attention of everyone under the stage.
That's right, although the things Xu Yi said sounded very powerful and opened everyone's eyes, understanding that the world they were in was a mysterious and colourful world, how did Xu Yi know this?
"If I said that I accidentally obtained an ancient inheritance and obtained this knowledge, would you believe me?" Xu Yi asked back with a smile.
That reporter from the « Banta Times » and the other reporters under the stage, as well as the surrounding citizens all looked at Xu Yi in a daze, with a "you're joking with me" expression.
If there was an ancient inheritance, it was impossible for there to be no traces of it in the Sines.
Then again, why didn't Xu Yi mention it before and why did he say it all at once?
Xu Yi didn't expect anyone to believe his explanation at all. Without waiting for anyone to ask, he continued, "As for how I obtained this knowledge, forgive me for not being able to reveal it, but I can guarantee that this knowledge is real and can be verified."
The people under the stage looked at each other and no one raised any objections.
With Xu Yi's current status, there was no need for him to make this kind of joke.
Moreover, his description was very attractive, completely changing people's views of the world.
If this world really was as big as Xu Yi said, there would be a universe above their heads that they couldn't see the end of, how exciting would that be?
"Chairman Xu, you suddenly mentioning these things ….. How is it related to the goal you mentioned?" A reporter suddenly asked.
Everyone was stunned for a moment before they reacted.
That's right, Xu Yi had been talking for a while, but how was this related to the main topic he was talking about?
. "Of course it's related." Xu Yi smiled.
"Think about it, twenty years ago, people's understanding of this world stopped at Sines. They thought that other than Sines, there was only an endless ocean.
But ever since our New Flyer's voyage fleet proved the existence of other continents, people realized that this world is much bigger than we imagined. "
"Next, I will prove to everyone that we are indeed standing on a sphere and there are several continents on this sphere. Each continent has different life forms and civilizations."
"When we have enough understanding of this planet, what I want to do next is to lead everyone to understand the starry sky above our heads.
I want everyone to know that beyond the planet we're standing on, there's a world countless times bigger waiting for us to explore. "
Everyone followed Xu Yi and looked up at the sky, but they could only see the blue sky due to the clear weather. They couldn't even see a single star, let alone the endless universe hidden behind the sky that Xu Yi mentioned.
The reporters realized that they couldn't keep up with Xu Yi's train of thought anymore.
What was he trying to say after talking for so long?
Xu Yi looked up at the sky again for a while before he slowly lowered his head. He looked at the thousands of reporters below the stage, at the confused civilians, and at Heinz who was looking at him in shock. He took a deep breath and opened his hands.
"The world is so big, but we still have to squeeze into a small place like Sines and fight to the death for a little bit of benefit. Do you think ….. it's meaningful?"
The reporters below the stage were stunned for a while before they all revealed bitter smiles.
They had to admit that the world that Xu Yi described was very beautiful and his questions were very powerful, but for the people of Sines, especially the people who controlled most of the resources on Sines, Xu Yi's words were meaningless.
Yes, this world didn't only have Sines, it wasn't even just the planet under their feet. But what did this matter to them?
What they could control right now were the resources on Sines.
With the technology of humans on Sines, other than the New Flyer, there were no other countries or organizations that could go to the legendary new continent. So how could they obtain the resources on that continent?
Xu Yi on stage revealed a smile, as his eyes were filled with understanding.
"In order for the people of Sines to see the true appearance of the planet under our feet, I want to announce something here.
After the planned trip around the world, our New Flyer will be opening up the Magic Ship technology to all countries, organizations, and individuals.
Our New Flyer invites everyone to head to the new continent on this planet, inviting everyone to explore the planet under our feet. "
The noise under the stage fell silent and the entire city square was filled with a deathly silence.
However, this deathly silence only lasted for a few seconds before it exploded with a deafening noise.
The surrounding citizens didn't have much of a reaction, but the reporters of the major newspapers all revealed looks of incomparable shock.
If it was said that among the various technologies of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the one that the other countries and organizations cared about the most was the military magic machine technology, then the one that came in second was the Magic Ship technology.
When the New Flyer announced that they had discovered the new continent, all of Sines had been stirred up.
Everyone wanted to explore the new continent, but other than the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, no one else had a ship that could sail the seas. So everyone could only watch as the Frestech Chamber of Commerce explored the new continent.
Now that Xu Yi had announced that the New Flyer would be opening up the Magic Ship technology, didn't that mean that other countries and organizations other than the New Flyer, or even individuals would have a chance to form a fleet and go to the other continent?
Since the press conference had been held, it could be said that there was finally a big piece of news. After the reporters recovered from their initial shock, they all raised their hands or stood up to ask questions.
Xu Yi had a smile on his face as he answered the reporters' questions about the Magic Ship technology, while silently complaining in his heart.
He had spent most of his time preparing and expressing his feelings, but in the end, these fellows didn't know what was good for them. They weren't interested in the new world he described, they were only interested in the technology that was about to be released.
But this couldn't be blamed on them. After all, the people under the stage weren't like Xu Yi who had transmigrated, grasping all the knowledge from earth.
Their knowledge of this world before the New Flyer had appeared was limited to the small Sines.
The New Flyer being able to discover the existence of the new continent was already a great shock to them.
Now that they had to accept the new world that Xu Yi had instilled in them, it was clearly too hard for them.
Xu Yi wasn't disappointed by this.
The reporters under the stage were just microphones that he had specially found, they were responsible for spreading the ideas that he was talking about today.
As long as the people of the continent knew what Xu Yi was talking about and slowly accepted it, Xu Yi would have achieved half of his goal today.
He believed that after hearing the things that Xu Yi was talking about, there would be people with foresight in the Sines who would understand Xu Yi's intentions and work hard according to Xu Yi's plans.
When the reporters finished asking the various questions about the Magic Ship technology transfer, the stage gradually fell silent. Xu Yi looked over and said with a smile, "Everyone, I think that since I've already told everyone this much, everyone should understand what our goal is, right?"
The reporters looked at each other with a trace of uncertainty in their eyes.
Perhaps they could guess what Xu Yi wanted to say, but there wasn't a single person who dared to believe it.
"Our goal is actually very simple, it's the sea of stars above us!" Xu Yi pointed at the sky and said in a powerful voice.
"The current us can only stay on this planet, but there will be a day when we will break through the sky above us and enter the boundless universe!"
The reporters looked at Xu Yi in a daze, not knowing how to react.
Everyone said that the New Flyer's chairman Xu was a madman, but no matter how crazy a person was, he wouldn't say something like this, right?
Break through the sky above us?
Enter the boundless universe?
They didn't even know how far the sky was, so Xu Yi didn't know how far he was from his goal … …
