Rebirth 09: Synthetic Male God

Chapter 774 Waves and Gold

Director Sun looked at the suitcase Zhou Rui had placed at his feet, and suddenly said with emotion:

"Mr. Zhou, you know I've been thinking about it during this period. The space agency has gained so much recently, which one is the biggest?"

Zhou Rui put down his mobile phone and said with a smile: "It should be rocket recovery. With this technology, China Aerospace should have unparalleled advantages in the field of 'commercial development' in the future."

Director Sun shook his head: "No, it comes from the 'attention' from society."

Zhou Rui was a little surprised: "Do you still care about this?"

Director Sun leaned back, looked at the ceiling of the temporary office, and told Zhou Rui a story.

"It wasn't too long ago, probably around 00. At that time, the country's economy was developing rapidly and its finances were becoming more and more abundant. At that time, our space agency encountered a crisis because no one from bottom to top understood the aerospace industry. significance"

As a very special field, aerospace is even further away from the people than aviation.

Although technologies such as rockets, satellites, and missiles protect and serve countless people, they are often not understood.

Director Sun vaguely remembered that at that time, a very senior scholar and expert pointed at the nose of the space agency and said:

"Don't use the S I paid to build rockets, even if it's only one dollar!"

This kind of idea was very popular at that time, with countless fans, and even affected the judgment of the organization.

Of course, there will be the same model in the future: don’t take the S I handed over, build aircraft carriers, build cross-sea bridges, build high-speed rails, etc.

It was an era when "Reading Z" was read all over the world.

Foreigners engaging in aerospace are the light of the future of human civilization.

When the Chinese engage in aerospace, they are wasting people and wasting money. They are just looking for great achievements and are flashy.

Director Sun was so angry that he couldn't sleep for three days and three nights.

Obviously the country has become stronger and its industrial base has improved. The aerospace technology that used to be developed at all costs is now increasingly disliked.

It is difficult, expensive and meaningless to reject something. It is better to build a Hope Primary School and help the people.

Director Sun said in a deep voice: "Of course I know that there are many children in mountainous areas who have not gone to school. The space agency itself also provides educational support, but can it be calculated like this?"

After that, his old leader, who was the director at the time, did not argue or compete with those scholars and experts.

Instead, we decided to actively carry out science and education propaganda.

At that time, the old astronaut who came out of the Gobi Desert said: The people's eyes are sharp. The misunderstanding is because they cannot see or touch. We should not be angry. This is because we have not done our job well and have not allowed more people to People see the charm and importance of "aerospace".

"Since then, the bureau has paid more and more attention to science popularization and publicity, but there has always been a thorn in my heart, and that thorn is: In my heart, I have not completely refuted Ying's words: 'Don't use the taxes I paid, go to "Build rockets." Until May of this year, I heard what you said when you announced the establishment of Taiyi Works in Beijing."

Zhou Rui said softly: "Which sentence?"

"You gave the examples of Langjuxu, Zheng He's voyages to the West, two bombs and one satellite, and then told those reporters that in the new era, the space field is Langjuxu Mountain, the West, the atomic bomb, and every ordinary person. This is a career that future generations of Chinese people will benefit from.”

"Aerospace is not the only cause, but it is an important cause. There is no doubt about this. If we have the ability, our ancestors and future generations will blame us!"

Director Sun smiled happily: "I was next to you that day, and the thorn in my heart that had been in my heart for more than ten years was finally pulled out."

The space craze will eventually ebb.

But eventually there will be gold left, shining on the beach.

Let future generations pick it up and put it into the pockets of civilization and self-confidence.

To move forward bolder. ——————

Before leaving the office, Zhou Rui and Director Sun agreed on many things.

A policy has been set for the future of "Taiwan Tiangong" and even the short-term work of the space agency.

The first is about rocket recovery technology.

According to the agreement, this technology is jointly owned by Tai Tiangong and the National Space Administration. With this weapon, the advantages in the commercial development field will be very obvious.

But "Tai Yi Gong", or Zhou Rui himself, is not very interested in helping others launch satellites.

The big brother, the National Space Administration, is worried that its little brother will starve to death due to lack of income.

Although Mr. Zhou is rich, just losing money is not good-looking. Which other private enterprise will dare to enter this industry in the future?
So the two parties agreed that part of the cost included in the commercial quotation would be the technical cost of "rocket recycling". This part of the money would be paid by the company purchasing the launch service, and then Tai Tiangong and the Space Administration would split it in half.

For example, the original quotation was 1.6 million yuan, but with the rocket recovery technology, it can only quote million yuan. This is not a reserve price, as long as it ensures a market advantage, and it is not a tearful sale.

The price may be packaged, but 2000 million of it will be listed as "rocket recovery" technology expenses, which is equivalent to amortizing the research and development costs. (actually not that many)

This sheep's wool is a combination of Taiyi's work and the space agency's work.

Going back and forth, it was actually an internal project adjustment, but Taiyang Tiangong also had its first profitable business. This can be regarded as the goodwill released by the space agency and its support for the private aerospace industry.

Big Brother needs to be like Big Brother.

Those who just want to buy technology and don't want to pay for it are not called big brothers, they are called old bastards.

In addition, a rocket assembly factory originally planned to be built in "Taicang" next to Shanghai, which has been 70% completed, will be sold to Taiyang Group in a package, including land and above-ground buildings, as well as various items negotiated with the local government. Preferential policies.

In the future, Taiyi will have its own factory to order rocket parts, aerospace parts, etc., and can set up a base with peace of mind, which can be used for both modification and research and development.

As for infrastructure such as launch services, ground command, tracking and monitoring, before Zhou Rui can handle it himself, he can refer to the "two-pie reform" approach and cooperate with the space agency.

The price is absolutely fair.

Finally, members of the rocket engineering team at the Xichang base will be assigned to Taiyi workers in batches to form an initial team. Eventually, in the future, they will gradually become Taiyi workers on a voluntary basis.

Among all the cooperation projects, only the last one made Director Sun a little embarrassed. As one of the four major launch bases, the Xichang Base's engineering team was not so well-matched.

If Zhou Rui empties the entire base, will this base still be open?
Especially for an important position like Shan Chunyuan, it cannot be cultivated in a short time.

But Zhou Rui's words moved him.

"Don't worry, Director Sun. If they can dispatch workers to Taipei, won't they be able to dispatch them back to support the space agency in the future? We are brother units. Isn't it normal for personnel to move around? Just treat it as mutual training."

Director Sun hesitated and said: "That's not the same, especially Shan Chunyuan's position is too important."

Zhou Rui: "If you think about it this way, if the space agency needs it in the future, let alone Shan Chunyuan, I can be transferred back to provide support. We are all our own people, helping each other, no matter who we are."

"Can you also dispatch?"

"That's not true. If the country needs it, I will definitely come."

"Then the relationship is good, I will let Xiao Dan go with you tonight!"

Shan Chunyuan sneezed several times in the cafeteria while eating some meat.
