Chapter 916: Chapter 866: Man-Machine Unity!_1 Chapter 916: Chapter 866: Man-Machine Unity!_1 The whole room full of staff and online viewers in the live broadcast room could not keep up with Lincoln’s wild thoughts.
However, Lincoln’s question actually had a basis.
Just after leaving the media interview and arriving at the preparation room, before he had time to change into his spacesuit, the staff had served each astronaut a small cup of fruit juice.
According to them, this was a form of “send-off drink”.
But they were about to pilot a spacecraft into space, definitely not to drink and drive, so they used fruit juice instead of alcohol as a good luck charm.
This immediately stirred Lincoln’s memory of a rumor from Jianghu—
It was said that Russian astronauts and the designers of the Union Spaceship would drop a little engine fuel, that is, rocket kerosene, into their drinks, symbolizing “man-machine unity”.
But the taste of this stuff was too strong, even a tiny drop could ruin the taste of the whole glass of alcohol, making it very difficult to drink.
Even so, this practice became a tradition for many years and a large number of Russian astronauts have tried it.
Lincoln wasn’t sure if this rumor was true, but thinking of this story, and then looking at the fruit juice in front of him, he instantly became suspicious.
Faced with the commander’s question, he found it quite hard to answer and could only say: “Add some fuel to the drink, to symbolize the unity of man and machine?
“We don’t engage in such superstitions.” The commander shook his head and drank the small cup of juice in his hand.
After drinking it, he looked at the empty cup in his hand, then looked at Lincoln, suddenly a thought came into his mind: it seemed …worth a try?
This was Lincoln after all!

— Not only was Lincoln worshipped by young people overseas, his popularity also soared in Daxia.
There were more people who believed in Lincoln’s magic in scientific research than those who believed that Shuihua was the goddess of luck.
Especially in the field of scientific research, there were no shortage of workers who had to deal with luck and probability.
Many of them started to pray to Lincoln before experiments!
Although it was a jest…
Another astronaut looked at the fruit juice in his hand, then at the commander, and tentatively said: “Should we…
give it a try?”
“Absolutely not!
What are you guys thinking about?!!” The team doctor who has been with them immediately interrupted in a loud voice.
“The rocket is about to be launched, and you still want to drink kerosene at this time?
Do you realize how important your health is?!!”
After that, he glared at Lincoln: you are only here once, don’t cause any trouble for the medical treatment and insurance department in the long run!
Lincoln guiltily turned his head to avoid his gaze, drank this sip of fruit juice, and with the help of the staff, began to change into his spacesuit.
Although the teammates were interrupted by the team doctor, Lincoln’s idea had already spread through the live broadcast room, and immediately someone sent a comment in the live broadcast room:
“Man-machine unity?
Awesome!
Going to drink motorcycle gasoline now!”
“Damn!
In future Ghost Fire Youth Gatherings, wouldn’t we have to toast with gasoline?”
“The sports car is arriving tomorrow, will live broadcast the “man-machine unity” then!”
“No wonder I always lose the unlimited racing competition.
Turns out it’s because I did not drink the same gasoline as my beloved car!
I get it now!”
…
In the preparation room, the director, who was once almost tripped over by a sewing machine, was terrified of the comments in the live broadcast room.
He couldn’t help but ask the youngest assistant cameraman in the team: “Are these comments all jokes?
There won’t really be someone trying to drink gasoline, right?”
The assistant cameraman blinked and hesitated to say: “Should be…
not?”
His uncertainty made the director’s eyelids twitch.
When he was chosen by the station to be in charge of Lincoln’s live broadcast, he initially refused.
But who asked him to be the only one in the station who had worked with Lincoln?
In the end, he had no choice but to comply.
It had just begun, and he already sensed trouble!
If someone really drank gasoline and had an accident, wouldn’t that be considered a live broadcast accident?
The director was anguished.
The only good news was: this was mainly Lincoln’s problem.
He should not be scolded, right?
It’s not like he unveiled any of Lincoln’s secrets.
Thinking about this, he somewhat breathed a sigh of relief, and looked towards Lincoln in the crowd again.
At this moment, the three astronauts had changed into their spacesuits with the help of the staff, and were about to leave the preparation room.
All the staff in the room gathered around them to leave.
The director quickly called the cameraman to keep up.
This time, he had to pay attention not only to the scene on the camera but also to hold up his mobile phone to keep up with the audience’s comments in the live broadcast room, and was quite busy for a while.
However, when leaving the preparation room, he keenly saw several special comments in the live broadcast room:
“The one next to Lincoln, is she his new female bodyguard?
I never saw her before?”
“She doesn’t look the part, more like an assistant.
Is she assigned by the launch center?”
“Why is she the only one wearing a mask at the whole venue?”
“By the way, don’t you guys think, she looks a bit familiar from the side?”
“You find her familiar too?
I’ve thought so!
Just can’t remember where I’ve seen her before.”
“??” The director quickly lifted his head to look at the two people next to Lincoln.
One was Yue Pengju, who was well-known not only to him but also to the netizens, after all, Yue Pengju was always with Lincoln and was almost inseparable.
But the other woman wearing a mask was hard to identify.
She wasn’t with Lincoln the last time he saw him.
Besides, the girl did exude some inexplicable sense of familiarity, even though she was heavily clothed, with a mask and glasses on, and her hair covering half her face, it still painted a familiar picture.
The director can’t help it but move a couple of steps closer.
Then, relying on a clearer perspective and the extensive experience of a media person, he successfully recognized who this person was.
Then he stood dumbfounded on the spot ——
“Can anyone tell me!
Why would Daxia’s Little Princess, the pearl of the palm of hundreds of millions of netizens, be here?!”
It felt like ten thousand grass mud horses galloping across the director’s heart, his mind is collapsing inwardly.
But he is well-trained and is already in action while collapsing.
He quickly ran to the assistant camera to tell him to change the shooting angle, to avoid the “woman next to Lincoln” from appearing in the lens as much as possible, even if there would be no other way, absolutely no frontal shots!
Then he reminded the main camera: “Only shoot from the back.”
Then he opened his eyes wide, keeping an eye on the screen and the surroundings, ready to switch screens as soon as the lens is about to capture her!
Whatever the situation is between Lincoln and the princess, he doesn’t want to know any of it right now!
Even less so for the nation’s netizens and audience to guess!
This is the program he is responsible for!
As he was busy, he couldn’t help but lament inwardly: “Mr.
Lincoln, why must you give me such a hard time?”
“Next time there’s a task related to Lincoln, I’d rather die than accept it!”
Subsequently, Princess Camille Victoria rarely appeared in the lens, and only occasionally was her back caught in the shots.
On the way to the launch site by car, the director simply opted for an outside view of the car.
This naturally resulted in strong disapproval among the audiences.
It was only when the car team arrived at the launch field, and the camera looked up at the spectacular launch tower of the Tianzhou 43 from a super close distance, that the audiences put their complaints on hold amid the awe.
After the astronauts got off the car and bid their final farewell to the leaders and staff of the launch field under the spectacular launch tower, they took the elevator to the ninth floor of the launch tower.
What led the director to heave a sigh of relief was that Yue Pengju and Princess Camille Victoria stayed under the launch tower and didn’t go into the elevator.
ƝονǤο.сᴑ
They could take another elevator to follow up and shoot.
In the ninth floor, they filmed Lincoln and the other two astronauts walking through the entrance passageway, then filmed from outside the standby area as the astronauts took off their black boots “contaminated” by Earth.
After that, the lens was fixed still on the three astronauts who were staring blankly.
The director was very curious to walk into the standby area and ask them.
At this moment before leaving Earth, what were they thinking about?
But he knew that he couldn’t disturb them at this time, he just had to give up.
——Plus he couldn’t get into the standby area anyway…
After waiting a while, Lincoln and the other two astronauts waved goodbye to the camera and the staff one after the other before they entered the re-entry capsule.
By then, their task was completely accomplished.
As for the camera inside the cabin, they could only go to the official live room to watch the official live stream.
The director checked again and confirmed no one was discussing “the woman next to Lincoln” anymore, he finally let out a long sigh of relief, and moved away from the launch tower with the team members, waiting for the firing moment as everyone else.
Meanwhile in the Cloud Dream office group chat, everyone was amazed and puzzled as they saw their boss sitting on the right side of the re-entry capsule, checking his equipment status skillfully.
“So…is our boss really going to space?”
“Afraid so!”
“But…we have work starting tomorrow, right?
So when the boss is in space, how will we arrange our work???”
Who would have thought: even though tons of work is waiting after kicking off, the boss just upped and left for space on the day before the kick-off, without a word???
