Shanghai One Summit(Private,Invited only)

[Saint Loofa]

The Supreme Autarch pushed back his glasses, the light from the holomap refracting in a blur over it. He leaned back in the padded red chair with his arms folded, and coughed.

"We can, of course, talk about the fact that we're on a space station the size of a city. That would take extreme amounts of technological advancement. Amounts that not everyone has. What are everyone's thoughts on a research cooperation pact? That would help everyone."

He gazed wide eyed for a bit right into the holomap, clearly mesmerized.

OOC: You most likely won't be getting any more responses from me tonight. Sleep is valuable.

"Although we differ on certain ideologies, it would be a waste to keep this valuable knowledge in only one nation. I second the motion, and add that it should last as long as we want." The Emperor proceeds to make a memo to himself to increase the national research fund.

[Skymoot]

It was 16 hours and to the second since the final shuttle bound for Skymoot had been sent. The repercussions of it's landing, both metaphorically and physically, would still leave an impact on Skymootians for years to come. They we're used to guests coming unannounced and displaying their nations colors with pride. But no one was used to having a massive shuttle land, with mother-country, "glory-greatest-empire!" music blaring in the middle of Hoogeloon City (the nations capital). The damage to the bike pavement, traffic jams, and noise complaints to officers in the city made headlines all over Tonawith. Others in Vhilm and Maymn Islands thought an alien invasion was upon Skymoot, and trashed their local communities preparing for "independence day 2". It was a media shitstorm, to say the least, which never sits well with Darrin Fredrick Arkwright Jr.

It took hours of damage control to calm the people, as the shuttle had to land closer to the Vassal Manor, which then revealed the 2nd big issue: the shuttle was too small. Normally, Darrin would always bring his partner Nathanian Drakeconias Flupa along with him on diplomatic missions, as the duo have never parted ways since their childhoods. But the shuttle was too small for both Darrin and Flupa to fit with the crew. The solution was a 4 hour Tetris game of reorganizing seats, making space, and compromising with extra crew. In the end, enough space was made in the shuttle (and five crew members given VIP tourist packages in Skymoot to compensate them for staying behind), and the duo could finally take off for Shanghai One.

As the shuttle lazily entered the station, soldiers were immediately scolding the shuttle. Scoffs of 'shit' crew, bad timing, and faulty parts murmured between the soldiers. But the sight of Flupa put a spell on them all. Silence, as a young man in his 20's (wearing his Skymootian ceremonial sword, classic trilby, and casual outfit) rode out on a massive beast in the hangar. And they were not happy. Grateful to be in space yes, but unhappy at everything it took to get there.

Darrin jumped down from Flupa, and the duo headed for the main area. Ceremonial guards of the Seryyoik Empire came to the duo as escort. Only one sentence fled Darrin's mouth. "Take me to your leader."

OOC: I'm sorry for the late start into this. I'm not really on NS often enough to get these things done haha. At best, I'm on once every hour. I'm sorry again for the tardiness of me, and thank you all for being patient with me. That being said, let's get this summit started!

OOC: No worries, you missed Qinishi's handing out cupcakes to everyone though.

The Royal Guards would be humans, so they chuckle a bit for what the kid said, though they would precede to take him to their leader by taking a private monorail to the Building where the Summit was being held with the Grand Emperor and the other political leaders of Earth.When they arrived the protesters would be gone by now and at home for their meaninglessness for their cause with no goal for any change in the Imperial Government to make work on to improve the Kingdom for good meaning.Darrin would find himself in glorious white conference room(See picture in page 1) with six other leaders, including himself becoming to discuss the possibilities of scientific cooperation as the Kingdom would be the most advanced nation in the planet for reasons that explain themselves.The Emperor would be speaking with the Willanian monarch and the Loofan Autarch before greeting him."Why, of course, it seems only fair for my Kingdom to share its resources with its underlings." Joked the Emperor."As each nation could save millions of centuries in costs to get to this level of utopia with working with Chinese scientists and military researchers to construct your own Star fleets without relying on me to make them for you, if you wish to go full Imperium of Mankind on the galaxy, for one example that would be heavy on the manufacturing companies to supply a foreign with war goods to invade some unfortunate civilusation with Imperius exterminius falling their heads.That would your countries' responsiblity in following the information and blueprints on how to build the weaponry made for the stars, that my government has allowed access to for the edge of excitement.Is that understandable?" Said the Emperor made contact with everyone in the eyes.

He would sense another person in the room."Mister Darrin Arkwright, isn't it? Good to see you've survived the trip so please join us as we are, also expecting the Yeffinese President to arrive shorty if he doesn't that would be the shuttle exploded when attempting to leave Earth's gravitational pull to get here." Said by a humanoid shadow version of the Emperor looking at the young man with glowing red eyes as the physical form of the Emperor would be still looking at the other leaders.

[Skyhooked]

Stan Dixon responds: "Yep, however mega projects are really demanding, and require gigantic industrial complex to supply them. I would like to ask one thing. I doubt, that your empire would achieve even quarter of it's glory, if you didn't have an effective and extremely cheap energetic source. As far as I can guess, getting most resources is no longer a major problem as soon as you achieve certain technological level. History has many examples of that. For example, ancient people starved frequently, but now it's not that hard to sustain an acceptable agriculture and starvation became far much less problem. But the more advanced and gigantic is the industrial complex, the more energy it will require. Even with optimization, lack of the decent energy source just ties the country up."

"Ah! Fantastic to see you, Cousin Darrin. And your friend, Flupa. Please sit down."

Stan Dixon responds: "Yep, however mega projects are really demanding, and require gigantic industrial complex to supply them. I would like to ask one thing.

But the more advanced and gigantic is the industrial complex, the more energy it will require. Even with optimization, lack of the decent energy source just ties the country up."

The Emperor also replies. "I agree with you, Mr. Dixon. Infrastructure is the lifeblood of a modern civilization, and energy is one of the most important aspects of it. This is what the research collaboration is for. With it, the technologies of everyone, including the power of the Seryyiok Empire, will be made available to us. Plus, the research from these labs will help our own domestic research, proving an effective addition. Darrin? What do you think?"

"Darrin! Flupa! How are you? We haven't spoken for a while, we've both been quite busy it seems. Hopefully we can use this summit as a chance to catch up! That, and our shared love of dragons. Still haven't managed to get myself a pet one like you yet though."

OOC: No worries, you missed Qinishi's handing out cupcakes to everyone though.

"Honestly, you've actually done well to miss that. I didn't want to say anything, but they were slightly burnt. I don't cook much..."

[The Seryyiok Empire]

The Emperor would nod in agreement with the others."Energy is the key to processs as you know...the Empire hasn't need to worry we are in the dust like the rest of the world, we surely will be paid in corpses, I mean friendship and profit in the agreements...." The Emperor's other personality would be crawling to take control in a insensitive and violent manner with his eyes being yellow and red, symbolizing his light and the dark battling for control of the body."Nothing is cheap, Dixon, the source was expensive to built you saw the two Dyson spheres, eh? Cost an arm and leg to build those monstrosities to keep the demands of worlds under happy, sometimes i had to go orwellian to silence their insolence, when they where still being built though now everyone is happy.Oh, Arkwright one." Looking at the Willanian monarch."Funds? We'll be doing all this internationally and paid for by the Kingdom with assigned nations doing their part also." He said with a smile, not very sure that made sense though with his mind on a spine at the moment.

"Qinishi, stop breaking the 4th wall with conversing with the man behind the screen, please." Said the Emperor with annoyance in his voice.

Stan lights up another cigar. "While your offer seems interestin', I would like to state, that I meant a source of energy, your empire used before you created those Dyson spheres or other space megastructure, something to start with. Like... you know, maybe you found some way to get anti-matter in large quantities, or perhaps create some highly productive isotope. I only assume, that your source was either renewable, or used extremely abundant resource. Otherwise it would be far much harder for your empire to last till you built those spheres, since delepting sources would force to capture more places, and even a single failure or some slow down would cause severe energy crisis. And what about the means of transferin' energy from sphere to planets?"

[Saint Loofa]

The eyes of Loofa widened and he leaned forward in his chair ready to join.

"Anti-matter, you say? Do we have access to that? If so, all of us would benefit greatly. If we don't already have that, we should work on that. Lots of cheap energy, that's good for everyone. Although the very same substance would also open up very effective new kinds of weapons, but I suppose we're not here to talk about horrid things such as war."

"But I mean, I guess that's never off the table in today's day and age."

OOC: Just wondering, are we the only ones in the room, or are there people like guards, whether or not we brought them ourselves or if they're Chinese?

The body of the Emperor turned rigid. Turning his eyes, he focused on Loofa.

"No. It's absolutely too dangerous. Not only is it highly explosive and can cause horrendous damage from a little accident, but it can be used for destruction and pain. Which I suspect is what our dear Autarch plans to do. Instead, we should focus on a different energy source that was quite popular and thought to be plausible: fusion energy. It's efficient, it's cheap, and it's renewable. It has the power of the sun in a little device. I suppose you have those, Emperor?"

"Anti-matter? We only use that for manufacturing weapons to terminate our lesser enemies, effectively, Autarch.Which I won't mind to give you access to such power as all mankind seeks power and never must be denied it, so I will not a bother with counter arguments against benefiting the Autarch's willingness to have the touch of god in his possession, that's final.As for it being used for civilian such as electricity, heavens no, it was created by the High Gods that Dixon has encountered before, terrible beings they are, depending on which God you meet face to face, which I say we have meet the Angel of Massacre, the manipulator, Victor Vonstein, yes? As the population of the omniverse was being butchered off to nearly extinction with violence and Wars breaking loose, maybe some of us just felt the effects of his madness.Anyways back to the matter at hand.Dark matter and renewable energies are primarily source of energy for powering the Imperium, by the taste of its explosiveness and corrupting elements used in the mystical arts of magic and science alike, though it is now just eternal fuel for warships.So does that answer your question as I'm not a highly man of knowledge." Said the Emperor, looking at others.

OOC: No worries, you missed Qinishi's handing out cupcakes to everyone though.

Said by a humanoid shadow version of the Emperor looking at the young man with glowing red eyes as the physical form of the Emperor would be still looking at the other leaders.

"It's good to finally be here as well. Though I must speak with you and discuss future international delegations that you send. The last one was. . . excitable." Darrin chuckled. He gestures to Flupa to enter the room, as the duo find a spot in the large gathering hall to rest and to see everyone else. Many other delegates we're here, and he had to reply to them all in quick succession. He was not a quick moving man after all, having grown up in the laid back nature of Skymoot, so the hectic nature of these greets always drained him somewhat.

First there was. . . wait? Cousin Will? "Haha Will!" Darrin beamed at the emperor. "It's good to see you again cousin! I'm sorry for keeping you up!" The duo took their seats next to Will. Cousins from distant relatives, allies in conflicts, and members of the LoEA (League of Environmental Alliances). It was the most logical and beneficial friend to sit by.

Then there was the cherished man from Gaozu, who Darrin had met in passing before, but never had the time to sit down and speak with him properly until now. "Hey! We're doing ok, thanks. We had some trouble getting here, but it worked out in the end. Yeah we've been somewhat busy. The people of Skymoot demand their democracy as much as I fight for it, but it's taking forever to get the foundations drafted up. And don't worry, cheer up buddy! I'm sure you will get a partner one day like me and Flupa. Don't forget though, Dragons are powerful beings. Never patronize them with the titles of pet or beast, as it's unfitting. Good to see you again friend." With that, Darrin smiled with his eyes closed, and turned to the general audience.

"I apologize again for my initial absence. Who knew it would be a hassle to get a Nathanian Drakconias into space?" Darrin chuckled, as he continued. "So, what do I owe the pleasure to for being here with you all? He paused for a moment before turning to the host of the meeting. "Oh before I forget. There were some extra guards on your shuttle that had to stay behind so we could both make it here. I gave them a VIP pass around Skymoot's tourist locations as compensation for the complications. I respectfully ask that you do not terminate their employment over this. They did not stay behind by choice, just for me and Flupa to make it here as quickly as we could."

"Why would I do such a thing? If I took people's jobs away I would not be in the position of power for a true nobleman that cares for all his citizens to live the fullest of their lives with incomes that makes a proletariat a rich and happy man, as the servants I was gifted is now being paid hourly by his hard and sufficient work to have good life.Also his family and friends are being transported out of Saint Loofa as we speak, causing promises can be broken so they must be reinforced with extreme measures." The Emperor would look at the Autarch."Don't worry, my tyrant friend a handsome transfer of money has been wired to your bank account." He said with a smile.

"Anti-matter? We only use that for manufacturing weapons to terminate our lesser enemies, effectively, Autarch.Which I won't mind to denied you access to such power as all mankind seeks power and never must be denied it, so I will not a bother with counter arguments against benefiting the Autarch's willingness to have the touch of god in his possession, that's final.As for it being used for civilian such as electricity, heavens no, it was created by the High Gods that Dixon has encountered before, terrible beings they are, depending on which God you meet face to face, which I say we have meet the Angel of Massacre, the manipulator, Victor Vonstein, yes? As the population of the omniverse was being butchered off to nearly extinction with violence and Wars breaking loose, maybe some of us just felt the effects of his madness.Anyways back to the matter at hand.Dark matter and renewable energies are primarily source of energy for powering the Imperium, by the taste of its explosiveness and corrupting elements used in the mystical arts of magic and science alike, though it is now just eternal fuel for warships.So does that answer your question as I'm not a highly man of knowledge." Said the Emperor, looking at others.

"We have nukes, but what's all this about anti-matter? I'm sure it would be useful if we were at war, but I'm worried it could create an even uglier arms race than that during the Cold War with our neighbours and other United Nations members where we come from. But is it possible to utilise this safely as a renewable energy form? People in the surrounding countries see nuclear power as dangerous, let alone what would be an experimental technology for us. Is this something we could maybe make some sort of agreement with, with regards to us learning how to use this technology but also letting the scientific communities of our neighbours in on it as well? You see, if we started by some miracle being able to use this technology to run our infrastructure, economy, services etc, we'd have to share it with out neighbours such as Japan, Korea, Europe, the United States and others. If you'd be comfortable with this, we could see what we could possibly give you in exchange for knowledge on this new technology?"

Qinshi shifted in his wooden shoes, feeling slightly primitive and apprehensive as to the Emperor's response.

Stan just sits there and smokes a cigar: "But energy in not the only issue to solve. Mega structures also require tramendous amounts of different resources. What do we need, is the stable and cheap to use FTL technology, since most resources needed for such projects are scattered across different star systems and they will have to be regularely delivered to different places."

Qinshi shifted in his wooden shoes, feeling slightly primitive and apprehensive as to the Emperor's response.

"Antimatter is to explosive in measure to be used for powering cities and towns as by statements from Imperial scientists to be used in military activities where the release of energy is only used to terminate enemy civilisations on a large scale, extinction for the word.So making it for noncombatant things is highly unlikely, Qinishi and would you prefer to wear something more formal such as a silk robe or business suit by you feeling primitive among us?" Said the Emperor with taking notice of Qinishi's reaction to how other are dressed and speak around him.

Stan just sits there and smokes a cigar: "But energy in not the only issue to solve. Mega structures also require tramendous amounts of different resources. What do we need, is the stable and cheap to use FTL technology, since most resources needed for such projects are scattered across different star systems and they will have to be regularely delivered to different places."

"Nanobots in swarms are great for gathering resources for such projects with a million of them used to harvest planets to being the materials to be used in construction, which these microbots are effectively used for fast builds in good quality that is cheap as they muitiply in numbers on their own similar to a cell using asexual reproduction so centillions of credits are saved in the process, does that seem of interest to you for purchase?" Said the Emperor looking at Stan Dixon.

[Skyhooked]

"But before you sell those to us, I need to know exactly one thing. I encountered many lucrative and attractive deals like that... but many of them didn't have one thing. And this thing is - Safety. Dixons clan, where I come from, became a powerful bottlegging sindicate not because they accepted every deal without thinking of the consequences.

While I trust you, I can't help but notice, that nanobots have great destructive potential, and with a programming bug or in wrong hands could harvest... well... houses, factories, saloons and tourists. They replicate by themselves, and thus may get out of control. We don't need heckloads of grey goo in Skyhooked.

Thus there is a question, do they have an emergency killswitch? A thing, which could deactivate them in case they go out of control? And can they be manually controlled, so enviornment impact could be prevented?"

Said the Emperor looking at Stan Dixon.

Nanobots do sound fantastic. Cheap, efficient, and quick. I say we're willing to use them. However, what is their power consumption? Do they need a lot or a little? Can it be stored or do they need to charge frequently?

Said the Emperor with taking notice of Qinishi's reaction to how other are dressed and speak around him.

"Yeah, probably. I have a lovely silk robe with me, I'll change into that!"

"As for your statement on the explosivity of antimatter, is there no way to change that? I mean, do you think you just don't know enough about the technology for it to be allowed to work properly? I mean, nuclear forces were only really discovered to be safe to use for non-destructive purposes in 1951, six years after Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945. I'm not doubting your scientists! It's just, this seems like something really worth pursuing if it'll work."

[Saint Loofa]

"Yeah, can we feed the things with a pile of coal or do we need some fancy high tech stuff to keep them working? Just how do you keep nanobots working?"

[The Seryyiok Empire]

"I can sure you, Mister Dixon, that the nanobots are completely safe to use with a killswitch that is a chip implanted into an organic or inorganic being's mind, which who are assigned to control them at will for the good of the government's affairs, so no need to worry at all." Said the Emperor in a very confident voice.

Nanobots do sound fantastic. Cheap, efficient, and quick. I say we're willing to use them. However, what is their power consumption? Do they need a lot or a little? Can it be stored or do they need to charge frequently?

"The power comsumption can be anything really, no limits at all, that means even Organics...you might want to keep note of, which you can execute a criminal scumbag without having to clean up the corpse.That would be made into energy for the nanobots, wouldn't you love that, Autarchie?" Said the Emperor looking at the Supreme Autarch with a smile.

"Yeah, probably. I have a lovely silk robe with me, I'll change into that!"

It's just, this seems like something really worth pursuing if it'll work."

The Emperor then looked to Qinishi."Not yet.Antimatter will only be developed for military uses for now, but if your scientist would want to experiment with it to be made for the citizenry that is fine with me." said the Emperor calmly.

"

Yeah, can we feed the things with a pile of coal or do we need some fancy high tech stuff to keep them working? Just how do you keep nanobots working?"

The Emperor stared back the Supreme Autarch."Like I said before, they are like a swarm consuming and building anything, meaning their power is unlimitedness." He said.

[Willania Imperium]

A fantastic thing! Our machinery, although energy-efficient, can only utilize a few choice items! But these nanobots are fantastic! I'm certain hat the government will approve completely!
Tell me, what are the costs for these wondrous machines?

The Emperor took out a paper and pad.

[Gaozu]

The Emperor then looked to Qinishi."Not yet.Antimatter will only be developed for military uses for now, but if your scientist would want to experiment with it to be made for the citizenry that is fine with me." said the Emperor calmly.

"Ooh, thanks! Would it be possible to set up some kind of research agreement? We could help each other with this."

Yes! Quite right! After all, we each have a powerful research drive that makes each of us powerful in some way. If we could bind them together, our combined power will be great.
