About This Novel
No one understands why old Mike has been guarding the nuclear waste site for twenty years, until a major earthquake exposed his secret - there were a huge number of nuclear bombs buried there, and it had been twenty years since the global convention to eliminate nuclear weapons! To cover up this secret, the U. S. Government quickly decided to rent private spacecraft and send them to the Lagrange point in outer space for destruction. Abandoned by the country, Old Mike sold his secrets to terrorists. They sent spies and successfully hijacked the spacecraft. They threatened to dump nuclear bombs on the earth and demanded a high ransom from the US government. The US government, however, had no intention of bringing the spacecraft back from the beginning! The security of the earth has become a bargaining chip for the three parties, and mankind is trembling under the nuclear threat! The confrontation on the spaceship was thrilling, and the Lagrange point was perilous. At the last moment, the captain of the spaceship, Chinese Lu Gang, made a decisive decision that surprised everyone...

I came here because of its reputation, and I must say a few words after reading it. It is obviously a future science fiction novel, but it has the flavor of Shanghai gangsters in the 1930s. Even the word "reporter" appears. Some settings are very unreasonable. For example, Chinese people use Western metaphors to curse people, and some character plots are too idealistic, although they are in line with the routines of online novels. But this is not what a good science fiction novel should look like. Maybe I have read too many excellent books and the requirements are too harsh.
