Chapter 276 It’s time to eat
After hearing the news, the white-haired old man felt a little relieved.
After thinking for a while, he said:
"Check which satellite took this picture. Also, create some public opinion saying that this picture was faked by them. We absolutely cannot admit that their technology is more advanced than ours."
Public opinion warfare is a common form of attack used by the United States. Whether it is to smear the image of other countries or to justify war, these are their effective tricks.
Things have developed to this point, and this is the only way for them to save face.
…
After seeing the photo of Hua Xia’s latest response, Xu You analyzed the picture carefully again.
"With a resolution of 0.1m, the latest algorithm should have been used according to the image processing level. However, this is not our highest level yet."
Xu You could see that even with such a high-definition picture, we still had some reservations.
Unless it is absolutely necessary, there is no need for us to demonstrate our full technological level.
At this time, netizens are still actively discussing this matter on major social platforms in China.
But after a while.
A new theory has emerged.
"In fact, the picture we sent was not really taken by satellite, but was synthesized by software. It is impossible to take such a clear picture under such weather conditions."
In the article, he argues his point in a way that seems reasonable and well-founded.
At first glance, it does make some sense.
Some IP addresses come from accounts around the world that are forwarding this message.
Under this momentum, many ordinary netizens were also bewitched by these views and joined the army of forwarding.
"Yes, I also think our pictures are a bit too clear. They can even penetrate obstacles. Isn't this a bit too fake?"
"No way, are the images taken by our satellites really just composites? Wouldn't that make people abroad look down on us?"
"It should be just the post-processing part that makes the picture clearer. I also feel that we are still not as good as the United States in terms of technology."
Under such public opinion, many netizens were unable to distinguish right from wrong and began to doubt China's satellite images.
As a researcher of satellite target detection and image processing technology, Xu You knows the truth of the matter .
However, Xu You knew that he could not speak casually on the Internet.
This is not within Xu You's scope of responsibility, and if Xu You speaks rashly, it will cause many other impacts.
Xu You firmly believes that we will handle this matter well.
After that, the Chinese government did not participate in the so-called "rumor-busting" campaign.
But for some reason, satellite experts from multiple countries soon began analyzing the satellite images of both sides.
They all agreed that the satellite images from both the United States and China were completely real.
Even if they did not make a subjective evaluation of the incident, it still showed their attitude well.
With the affirmation of experts from various countries.
The rumor that China's satellite images were fake has been refuted.
The US officials have not made any further comments on this matter.
It is difficult to find out the real source of public opinion created among the people.
But if it is an official from the United States, it will publicly make remarks that distort the truth.
Then their credibility in the world will be greatly reduced.
After all, professionals from all over the world can tell the authenticity based on these pictures.
"How is it? Have you found which satellite took this image?"
"It has not been confirmed yet, but there are two new pieces of information. The first piece of information is that the latest photo was taken recently. The second piece of information is that China just launched a new satellite not long ago."
"So, you think it's probably this new satellite that has such good photography effects?"
"It is possible, but there is a contradiction. This satellite is just a backup satellite. Their previous generation of satellites of the same model did not have such good image detection technology."
“Could it be that they didn’t reveal the real satellite information? Is this actually a more advanced satellite?”
"According to reliable information we have received, this is indeed a spare satellite. According to our analysis of the satellite, this satellite should not be of such a level. So we are also speculating that this may be an image taken by other satellites ."
The white-haired old man thought about it and still felt that the newly launched satellite was more worthy of suspicion.
At this moment, he wished he could just shoot down the satellite so that China would not be able to take such clear pictures over the United States.
Of course, this kind of thing is just something you can think about, no one would do it easily.
Many countries have the ability to shoot down
But the cost of shooting down a satellite is high, possibly even higher than the cost of launching the satellite.
Also, if you dare to hit my satellite, I dare to hit your satellite too.
Such a lose-lose outcome is undoubtedly something that neither side wants to see.
Not to mention, the space debris generated after the satellite is destroyed will cause serious space pollution, which will affect the subsequent satellite launches of various countries.
No one would do such a stupid thing on impulse.
…
At noon that day, Xu You came to Ji Dashaoyuan Restaurant.
Previously, some teachers and students of Ji University, including Xu You, were unable to attend Zhao Weijia's wedding due to some matters.
Zhao Weijia decided to hold another thank-you banquet at Ji University and invite everyone to the banquet.
With Xu You's current status, it would definitely not be convenient for him to just go out for a meal.
This time Zhao Weijia is holding a thank-you banquet on campus, and Xu You will definitely go to show his support.
"Teacher Xu, you're here!"
Seeing Xu You coming, Zhao Weijia was in a good mood. He quickly walked over and started chatting with Xu You.
From being brothers in the same school to being teachers at Ji University, the two can be considered half colleagues.
"Brother, today is such a good day!"
"Yes, I asked someone to take a look and they said today is a good day to do it, so we decided to do it today. Oh, and there's another good thing. Come over and I'll tell you."
Xu You didn't know what Zhao Weijia was referring to, so he moved closer to Zhao Weijia.
"The stocks I bought have gone up. Do you want to know what stocks they are?"
Xu You waved his hands quickly.
"The stock market is risky, so you need to be cautious when entering the market. I won't trade anymore. Senior brother, which table should I go to?"
"Just sit with Teacher Wang. You are both professors now."
"Okay, go and do your thing."
Compared to the wedding scene, the thank-you banquet did not have such a complicated process. Zhao Weijia said a few words and everyone started to eat.
