Scholar’s Advanced Technological System
Chapter 1042: No one can tell you the future.
If it is said that in addition to those "sights" who are anxious about the fate of humankind, who else is violently thrilled by the research results of Jinling Institute of Higher Education ...
I am afraid it is the executives and shareholders of the two companies Space-X and Johnson & Johnson.
Since the middle of last year, NASA has given them a considerable amount of money to study the freezing and dormant technology. However, just after they discovered that the extract of X-0172 bacteria is clinically safe to protect animal body cells from "dangerous" "Temperature zone" characteristics, Jinling Institute of Advanced Research has already made a full set of frozen dormant technology ...
Headquarters in Silicon Valley, California, looking at the newspaper in his hand, Musk's expression twitched stiffly.
"A new breakthrough in frozen dormant technology, a new pattern for terminal illness treatment in the future! 》
Originally, he thought that as long as he could choose those projects that he or she has more advantage or the other party is not interested in, try to avoid direct competition with Xingkong Technology, and use the research and development strength accumulated by Space-x for more than ten years. Not so miserable.
However, he didn't even figure out how, there was someone with cancer around that guy, and it was still incurable late ...
What the heck, why didn't he get cancer? !!
However, no matter how Musk cursed in his heart, it was no help.
Now that the freezing and dormant technology has been mastered by Xingkong Technology, it is no surprise that this time they can only follow the fart of that nasty Professor Lu. Pick the others and eat the rest ...
At this time, there was a knock at the door.
After Musk called in, he saw his secretary come in from the door.
"Mr. David Lawrence wants to make an appointment to meet you."
Hearing this sentence, Musk took a moment to stagger, put down the newspaper in his hand, and his expression became a little weird.
"See me? The eldest son of the Lawrence family?"
The secretary nodded and said: "To be precise, the eldest son who inherited the first order! You know, we have been seeking funding for the aerospace project, but those consortia are not optimistic about what we are doing. This time it is very rare ... He looks forward to meeting you as the CEO of Space-X. "
"Of course I know his identity. This doesn't require you to remind me. Meet as the CEO of Space-X ..." After chewing the second half of the sentence repeatedly, Musk's face gradually grew a thoughtful expression.
He obviously didn't particularly believe that David Lawrence would be interested in his Space-x, after all, he had sought him more than once for this.
But as his secretary said, Space-x needs money, and it needs a lot of money. In this age, only money can support great dreams, and this meeting may become such an opportunity ...
Even if the other party did not show great sincerity.
However, he still needs to try it.
After thinking for a moment, Musk said.
"Tell him I'll meet him ... what's the appointment time?"
Secretary: "This afternoon."
Hearing this, Musk's brow twitched fiercely, but he took a deep breath with restraint.
"... Buy me a ticket to Boston, this afternoon."
The secretary nodded.
"Good sir."
There are several flights a day from Los Angeles to Boston. After traveling around for an afternoon, Musk finally arrived at the Boston Consortium's centrally located industry, which is the place to meet, before 6pm.
Stepped into the conference room and looked at the man sitting quietly waiting behind the conference table. Musk cleared his throat and was about to move out of the self-introduction and opening remarks that had been prepared long before. Let's talk first.
"Welcome to Boston, Mr. Musk. Glad you accepted my invitation. Come sit down."
Although knowing this polite rhetoric does not have much sincerity, and even enthusiasm is not very talkable, it still makes Musk's psychology a little better.
Sitting in front of him is the most promising member of the Lawrence family of the Boston consortium. Aside from his higher education in Princeton, he is the richest and most powerful person in Boston and even the United States. one.
In contrast, although he is the president and chairman of Space-X and Tesla, if he really wants to talk about the words wealth and influence, his totality may not be as good as that of the man opposite him. A hair.
This is not an exaggerated metaphor.
Even more conservative.
"I heard that you want to talk to me about Space-X's space program, and I'm here," opened the topic with a simple opening statement, and Musk sent a compliment without leaving a trace. It ’s rare to have a visionary and courageous person like you on a scarce land. "
I don't know if the meaning of the compliment in this sentence was heard, David Lawrence just smiled slightly and then continued.
"Yes, I am really interested in your space program. I believe that our future must be in the distant new world ... but before discussing the question about the new world, I would like to ask you an interesting question. This question I I saw it in a questionnaire in the Boston Daily. "
"What's the problem?" Sitting upright in his seat, Musk looked at him with a smile and said, "It's interesting to you, it must be an interesting question."
He didn't make any expression to this unmarked compliment. David Lawrence smiled and said suddenly: "If you can go to the future, would you like to go?"
The moment he heard this question, Musk hesitated for a moment, apparently did not expect that he would ask such a question not directly related to space.
At the same time, it seems that he feels that his problems are not sufficient. After thinking about it, David added later, "Of course, the premise is to retain the shares of Space-X and the position of chairman, without considering Space. -X in case of failure in the next century. "
Finally reacted, Musk calmed down, thought for about ten seconds, and then said.
"What's the benefit of sending past antiques to the future to point and draw? Will 18th-century economic theory solve the 21st-century debt crisis? Or let him teach us how to develop the moon? On the contrary, nothing will happen. He only Will change what we managed to change over again. "
"Not to mention the inheritance of property, I only see endless trouble, but not a little bit of benefit."
"Of course, this is in the interests of the entire board of Space-X."
"……makes sense."
After listening quietly to Musk, David nodded thoughtfully, but did not give any opinion of his own.
Logically speaking, even if he does not talk about the probability of being unable to wake up, he is not very willing to go to the future.
Not surprisingly, he should be able to become the speaker of the Lawrence family, that is, the next patriarch. And if you go to the future, there is no doubt that it is equivalent to self-exile. No one can guarantee his power in the future, and at the same time, he has to face the hostility of the current patriarch at the moment of awakening.
The way to keep a family alive forever is no doubt still education.
but……
Personally, walking upright on the timeline does have a lot of temptation.
This not only means that he will be able to obtain a longer life in the future, but also that he will be able to complete those ambitions that could not be completed because of life and time constraints.
Of course, it is not easy to do this. There are huge resistances both within and outside the family. But as long as you plan ahead and weigh the risks ...
Forefinger rubbed the armrest of the seat, and David on the office chair blinked slightly.
Suddenly, he looked at Musk and said.
"How long will it take for you to solve the freezing hibernation technology?"
In the face of this sudden problem, Musk hesitated subconsciously, but still answered truthfully: "I don't know ... maybe five years ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ maybe longer ... the frozen hibernation technology is just our cooperation with Johnson & Johnson One of the projects is not the focus of our development. Our current business focus is still on high-thrust spacecraft and life support devices-"
David interrupted him and said without hesitation: "Then it is now, and I will set up a billion to set up a fund to help you accomplish this."
For a moment, Musk held his breath.
Billion!
Although this is not much compared to Tesla's tens of billions of market value, the market value is ultimately a false thing, and it is hard to see. How can it be compared with cash flow?
"I only have one requirement. It doesn't matter how much it costs. The important thing is to ensure the security of the technology. Can it be done?"
Musk hesitated and said: "Theoretically it is possible ... In fact, we now have some technologies that can ensure the safe operation of freezing hibernation, but several key parts need time to breakthrough.
David smiled and said, "That's fine, anyway ... I'm not in a hurry."
Musk: "... may I take the liberty of asking?"
David: "Ask me."
Musk hesitated and asked, "Are you ... going to the future?"
"I don't think so."
With a slight smile, David turned the office chair and looked at the floor-to-ceiling window behind him, leaving only Musk with a back.
Staring at his reflection on the floor-to-ceiling window and the bright Boston night scene behind the mirror, he suddenly whispered in a voice that only he could hear.
"But who said the next thing?"
