Dahan Technology Empire
Chapter 66, Great Significance
I failed 8 times in a row, and I was ready to fail for the 9th time, but I didn't expect the 9th time to be so perfect. The launch, steering, and recovery were completed in one go, and the launched rocket was successfully recovered to the scheduled time. location.
Retrievable rockets are of great significance for human exploration too fast. At present, only Spacex technology company in the United States has mastered this technology on the entire earth.
We all know that fuel only accounts for a small part of the cost of a rocket. The rocket's navigation control system, fuel storage tank, engine, and the materials of the rocket itself are the absolute bulk. If a rocket can be recycled Repeated use can greatly reduce the launch cost.
Elon Musk, CEO of Spacex, once said that making rockets that can be reused is the future of human spaceflight. Take the Falcon 9 rocket used for the first successful launch of the recovery rocket as an example. The cost of the rocket was $50 million at the time, of which the fuel cost was only $200,000.
Converted to the cost of 2022, it almost means that a rocket with a cost of about 100 million US dollars, of which the cost of fuel is only about 500,000 US dollars.
Qingquan Technology's Fat Man series of rockets, even if the multi-stage design and integrated design are reduced, but because of the use of new materials, anti-gravity engines, quantum communication devices, etc., its cost is more than 200 million yuan. It's just that Qingquan Technology does not calculate those super-era technologies.
Like the anti-gravity engine, quantum communication device, and new materials, these three pieces can be sold for a big price. This estimate is very difficult. We can only simply calculate its manufacturing cost.
Qingquan Technology is now rich and powerful, but it has failed 8 times in a row, and each time it is a loss of hundreds of millions, and how many times this experiment will be carried out, no one has a bottom line, scientific research is like this, the investment is bottomless, but the results are always difficult. see its traces.
This is the reason why private enterprises, central enterprises and state-owned enterprises are not willing to invest heavily in scientific research, because the ratio of input to output is really unpredictable. value and return.
And from the perspective of business operation, such investment is also very unwise. It is better to take that large sum of money to invest in real estate and finance, and you can make huge profits in the short term. Why do you work so hard in scientific research? ?
We can wait until other people come up with the technology, we can push it backwards according to the product, and add some new things.
This is also the current situation in the whole country or most countries. They are reluctant to invest in scientific research. Everyone is waiting for others to develop new technologies, and then rush up to push other people's technologies.
The reverse push technology is much simpler, just like writing and publishing a book is very difficult, but when you read a book, it is much easier, and you can constantly pick out a lot of faults in other people's books.
Of course, for the country, many strategic technologies will not appear in the world at all, and you simply cannot launch the corresponding technologies in reverse. At this time, you need to do research step by step and honestly, and constantly invest huge amounts funds, resources, manpower, etc. to develop.
For example, a big killer such as nuclear weapons, no one will sell you no matter how much you spend In foreign exchange, the Saudis offered tens of billions of dollars to buy nuclear weapons, and the country did not waver in the slightest.
In the end, the Saudis spent billions of dollars to buy dozens of conventional strategic missiles. This has already made the Saudis happy. Although the warheads of these missiles are conventional weapons, these missiles can hit very far. Medium-range missiles, pointing to that and hitting that within a thousand kilometers,
The frightened Israelis dare not do anything to Saudi Arabia.
(This story is what really happened. Those missiles are still the artifact of Saudi Arabia.)
Of course, such an investment can only be afforded at the level of a country, and only a country would be willing to invest such a huge amount of money. When it comes to national security and other aspects, the consistent principle of the world's major powers is to ignore the cost.
High investment also means high returns once the results are produced. In the 1970s, the US dollar in that era was really valuable, unlike now, a missile can be sold for 100 million US dollars, and its manufacturing cost was at that time. It is only a few million RMB. Even so, the local tyrants in Saudi Arabia seem to have found a great bargain. This kind of national artifact cannot be bought with money. I only bought dozens of them here, and I'm gone! Good luck!
Now the people of Qingquan Technology have not only made a rocket, but also a recyclable rocket, which is of great significance.
It is of great significance to the entire country. The increasingly fierce competition in space can greatly reduce costs, and the advantages of this competition will gradually emerge.
Others launch a space satellite, spaceship, etc. at least several hundred million dollars, and it is just a simple calculation of the cost of the rocket. If the investment in labor, spaceship, satellite, etc. is added, each launch is a huge amount. investment.
And globally, the success rate of this launch is not as high as imagined, and it often fails to launch and cause afterimages of people, dead and objects.
Now that you have a recyclable rocket, every time you send something too fast, at least in terms of investment in the rocket, each time it just consumes some fuel, and the cost is greatly reduced. This competitive advantage is very obvious. .
The success of the recoverable rocket is a landmark scientific and technological achievement!
This achievement is extremely important, especially for a country like China!
Nowadays, the development and utilization of space is carried out by international cooperation. The United States and Russia often cooperate to help each other launch and launch things into space, jointly develop and use the International Space Station, and exchange important results with each other.
Moreover, even those countries with underdeveloped technologies, such as Kimchi, Japan, some European countries, etc., can be taken by the United States and Russia to play in space as long as they pay a fee. Several powerful European countries even Simply hold a team and go to space to play.
All powerful countries seem to play very high together, except China, just like the technical blockade, they all seem to have reached a space blockade agreement. In this regard, China is excluded. you play!
The importance of space exploration, space technology, and space scientific research is self-evident. The future of mankind should not be limited to this small planet. The future of mankind should be the sea of stars, where there are countless resources waiting for mankind to develop!
Based on this understanding, even if it is difficult, the country has always insisted on developing space technology independently. From the beginning of the last century to the present, under the unremitting efforts of generations of astronauts in the country, even if it is by ourselves, no one With cooperation, our space technology can also be ranked among the top three in the world.
But as the saying goes, a single tree can’t make a forest. Relying on one’s own strength, although such brilliant achievements have been made, the corresponding investment also makes the country feel heavy. Many times the country has to save money from various aspects to satisfy The needs of the aerospace industry, especially in the special era of the last century.
There is no way, no one is willing to cooperate with you, you can only rely on yourself, although the beginning is difficult, everything is difficult at the beginning, but as long as this difficult period is passed, all the technologies developed in the future will be independent, and all the results will be Eat slowly by yourself, all the techniques are mastered by yourself, and you don't need to be restricted by others.
Qingquan Technology's recyclable rocket is a success for the time being. It is of great significance to a country that has always insisted on being independent and developing its space business on its own!
This means that in the future, the country can greatly reduce its investment in space exploration, and can invest valuable resources in more important places to develop more and deeper technologies.
However, at this time, everyone in Qingquan Technology obviously didn't know the importance of this technology, and they were still cheering and hugging to celebrate the successful return of their fat man.
Liu Qingquan smiled and looked at the cheering crowd, not to mention that they were all young people, even those older researchers would cheer and be happy like children if they encountered such a major achievement.
What's more, the people at Qingquan Technology are all young people in their early twenties who have just left the school. How can they not cheer and celebrate when they encounter such a major achievement.
Maybe everyone likes this way of celebrating, but Liu Qingquan is the only one who strongly opposes it, because Liu Qingquan, who was still smiling just now, was suddenly embraced by his subordinates, his limbs were lifted, and he was carried to the concrete space outside, constantly was thrown up and down.
You must know that these people have all practiced the method of cosmic energy. Although they are all methods specially developed for scientific researchers, the development effect on the body is also very obvious, and each of them is very powerful.
Liu Qingquan's 100 kilograms were thrown to a height of five or six meters by the crowd, and he was thrown to a height of more than ten meters when he was excited and forced, and Liu Qingquan hurriedly called to stop.
Although he has also practiced a comprehensive Yuan Li method, even if he falls from these ten meters, he will still be unscathed, but this year, because of people's fear of heights, Liu Qingquan is still a little uncomfortable. He quickly stopped everyone from continuing to throw hydrangea to celebrate.
Liu Qingquan, who had just fallen, had not had time to regain his senses. Secretary Deng Yujie found himself, handed over the phone and whispered, Defense Minister Fang Aiguo's phone number!
