Rebirth 1984: Starting with the development of Hanka

Zhao Ye plans to invest more than 20 billion yuan in the aerospace industry every year, mainly in three aspects: rockets, satellites, and engines.

When Musk entered the rocket industry, he only invested US$1 million. However, he later went through many rounds of financing. Before Zhao Ye was reborn, there had been 29 financings, with a total financing of US$98 billion.

Investing in the aerospace industry seems to cost much less than investing in the chip industry. With the financial resources of Wujiang Group, it can completely support it. Moreover, when the country gets rich in the future, there will definitely be subsidies and support. China's future aerospace industry is quite promising.

Currently, there is only one rocket launch company in China, the Long March Rocket Company, which is a joint venture between Wujiang Group and the state. It will undertake all rocket launch missions in China. In terms of development potential, it far exceeds Musk's SpaceX.

……

At this time, the whole country was in joy!

China's successful launch of "Asia One" is of great significance.

China has once again proved to the world that China is one of the only countries in the world capable of launching geostationary satellites. At this moment, China can completely use the Long March 3 carrier rocket to conduct commercial launches and push China's aerospace technology to the next level. Enter the international business market!

At present, many countries and companies must also want to launch a geostationary satellite of their own.

China's rocket launch costs are naturally much lower than those of the United States, the Soviet Union, and France. Therefore, Long March Rocket Company is fully capable of undertaking rocket launch orders from various countries.

In the past life, because China invested too little in the aerospace field, had limited rocket production capacity, and did not proactively solicit business, China missed many opportunities to make money.

But this life is different.

The Long March Rocket Company has received investment from Wujiang Group and has undergone earth-shaking changes in terms of talent, technology, scale, and management.

It is no longer a pure state-owned enterprise, but a joint venture company with a strong commercial atmosphere. The country does not engage in sales, but Wujiang Group does; the country does not pay attention to controlling rocket costs, but Wujiang Group does.

After the successful launch of "Asia One", the sales staff of the Long March Rocket Company began to take action and took the initiative to contact the aerospace departments of various countries, asking them if they needed China's help in launching satellites, and quoted them the price of China's rocket launch. Around $1.2 million.

However, this is much lower than the US$230 million rocket launch cost.

The cost of Long March 3 is actually less than US$ million. If mass-produced, the cost will be even lower. Therefore, the business of launching rockets is very profitable. Even if it fails the first time, at worst, the second and third launches will result in a loss, but not much.

Only by launching more rockets can scientific researchers collect information and sum up experience to develop more advanced rockets.

Not long after Zhao Ye returned to Shanghai, the aerospace departments of seven or eight countries including Britain, Germany, and Singapore, as well as five or six companies, including Motorola, were very interested in China's rocket launch project and began to send people over to negotiate. cooperate.

When Zhao Ye received the news, he was extremely happy. China is obviously one of the only four countries in the world that can launch geostationary satellites, but it has received very few international orders in its previous life. It is really a pity.

Zhao Ye looked out the window with his head held high and said with expectation: "China's aerospace industry is to seek development in international competition. As long as we open up the situation for the first time, the future road will be wider and wider!"

"I heard that Motorola also sent people to contact Long March Rocket Company. It seems that the 'Iridium Satellite Project' has been proposed within Motorola!"

Speaking of this, Zhao Ye couldn't help but want to laugh.

Motorola's Iridium project is to launch 66 artificial satellites for global mobile phone communications. Then, using satellite handheld phones, you can make and receive phone signals anywhere on the earth through the satellites!

The idea is certainly good, but as the saying goes: "Half a step ahead is a pioneer, and one step ahead is a martyr."

The Iridium project may have been too far ahead, and Motorola became a martyr.

Moreover, the entire Iridium satellite system still has many flaws. For example, Iridium satellite phones cannot receive signals in buildings, the equipment is bulky, costly, and the voice quality is not ideal, etc...

Coupled with some other reasons, the Iridium project eventually failed completely.

The reason why Nokia mobile phones were able to surpass Motorola in the 90s was because Motorola focused its main efforts on the Iridium satellite project.

Motorola must have thought this way at that time: "2G mobile phones are nothing. When Motorola's Iridium satellite plan is successfully launched, the whole world will use our Motorola Iridium satellite mobile phones!!!"

Therefore, Motorola does not pay much attention to 2G mobile phones. Otherwise, with Motorola's technical background, how could Nokia be its opponent.

Zhao Ye is of course happy to see the results and hopes that Motorola will go further and further on this road of no return!

……

"Boss, at this year's Autumn Canton Fair, Tiangong Technology Company wants to display low-end CNC machine tools to the outside world and strive to bring Tiangong Technology Company's low-end CNC machine tools into the international market!" Zhou Huicheng, general manager of Tiangong Technology Company, called at this time.

"It's a good thing. In the international market, most low-end CNC machine tools are monopolized by Japanese CNC machine tools. We just break this situation and add some trouble to the Japanese who are living a pretty good life!" Zhao Ye said with a smile.

"Haha, that's a must!" Zhou Huicheng laughed.

Japan's low-end CNC machine tools are not more advanced than Tiangong Technology's low-end CNC machine tools, but there is a big difference in price.

For a Japanese low-end CNC machine tool that sells for hundreds of thousands of dollars, Tiangong Technology’s price for the same product is less than half.

If a person is not ruthless, he cannot stand firm.

Through price war, Japan's low-end CNC machine tools can be directly destroyed.

Low-end CNC machine tools affect the development of high-end CNC machine tools. As Japanese machine tool companies reduce their income, investment in technology research and development will naturally be reduced.

Due to its cost advantage, Tiangong Technology Company sells low-end CNC machine tools, and its profits are still considerable. It does not even need blood transfusions from the parent company, and it has enough funds to support the research and development of high-end CNC machine tools.

At present, Tiangong Technology's low-end CNC machine tools have just been launched not long ago, but they have gradually become famous in the country. Many factories prefer Tiangong Technology's products.

The production equipment produced by Wujiang Group's subsidiaries is of course trustworthy!

Moreover, the products are of excellent quality, high quality and low price. The key is that they also have perfect after-sales service.

Of course, Japanese companies also provide after-sales services, but domestic companies are often cheated. The Japanese are extremely greedy. Whether they send technicians to repair equipment or replace equipment spare parts, the price will definitely make you vomit blood.

It is not easy for Tiangong Technology to grab orders from the Japanese. If it weren’t for the fact that Tiangong Technology doesn’t advertise much, it might be popular all over China by now. But it’s normal. Who would have seen a company that produces machine tools advertise on TV stations?

However, the products are well-received and Tiangong Technology Company will soon occupy the domestic market.
