Chapter 535 Rocket Launch
On May 22 this year, SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket carrying the Dragon spacecraft was successfully launched. It docked with the International Space Station on the 26th and returned to Earth on June 5.
The success of Musk's SpaceX was also reported by Central China and caused widespread discussion on the domestic Internet. The Shenzhou-9 launch mission was soon announced. Three aerospace companies will fly into space to conduct experiments on Tiangong-1.
Qu Li was lucky enough to get an opportunity to watch the launch live, including a visit to the launch base. Qu Li came to his Galaxy Power in the suburbs to learn about the "highlights."
"How can you go?" Some people are dissatisfied. As an astronaut, he rarely has the opportunity to go. How frustrating it is.
"The relevant departments took the initiative to invite me." Qu Li didn't hit him, really.
"It seems that the country is stimulated by SpaceX. Musk is really awesome."
Qu Li didn't want to hear his own people praising Musk. No matter how awesome this guy was, he was still a "liar" who spoke unscrupulously. He was speculating on virtual currencies and had too many black spots...
"You can do it too, or you can fly to Tiangong-1 on our rocket tomorrow."
"We don't have any rockets."
"Then why don't you build it? It's just a waste of envy for others."
"..."
The Galaxy Power team currently has less than 50 members. Raising such a group of people will put no pressure on Fanxing Fund. For example, the return rate of domestic monetary funds is more than 3%, and the daily income of 10,000 yuan is more than 1 yuan. Qu
If Li invests 1 billion, he will earn 100,000 in interest per day and 3 million per month in interest. Even if this group of people have relatively high wages at this time, the average salary does not exceed 20,000, which is only 1 million per month.
Liu Baiqi, CEO of Galaxy Power, is not a technical expert, but he is familiar with the entire process, knows a lot of people, can stick to principles, and is able to choose shortcomings rather than excessive ones in terms of personnel composition. He also pays attention to aura. Every recruitment has clear needs, and then multiple people participate.
During the interview, don’t accept anyone who doesn’t feel right.
Qu Li didn't choose Beijin Economic Development Zone intentionally. It was too remote here. He wanted to stay in Haidian, but some people were obstructing him and didn't want Galaxy Power to live next door and poach people at any time. Qu Li had no choice but to move and move Huaguan and
Qiancheng Auto moved here together.
The Economic Development Zone has a large area, and office buildings and factories are easy to handle. The logistics are a bit poor, so I can figure it out on my own. Fortunately, there are real estate companies like Sunac to help bid for land, and supporting long-term rental housing can be built. In fact, employees can also be built.
Dormitory, but the company has to bear management responsibilities, and he definitely doesn't want to bother with it, so only factory employees with lower incomes will have arrangements.
Long-term rental housing is provided to young people, but house prices in first-tier cities in China have risen too fast. Since this has been predicted for a long time, Qu Li must find a way to let real estate companies such as Yinghe Dayan Real Estate and Sunac cooperate to buy land and provide
Some of the employees of his companies will remain.
Of course, these things need to be shown to the people of Galaxy Power. The income of domestic astronauts is not high, and there are definitely not many people in their thirties and under forties who can buy a house in Beijin.
"Our preliminary calculation is that we can probably sell it to our own people at 70% of the market price, and provide a low-interest or no-interest corporate loan of 100,000 to 200,000, mainly allocated to the middle-level cadres of Honor, Qiancheng, Huaguan, and Galaxy.
, Those with a monthly income of more than 50,000 will not participate in the distribution..." The monthly income of 50,000 refers to after-tax, plus five insurances and one housing fund, which is 100,000 per month before tax.
Qu Li, Liu Baiqi and others explained his plan, but they would not publicize it on a large scale and would only talk to key talents. Moreover, because it is a commercial real estate, the house may be far away from the company.
"I will implement this plan from now on, but if Galaxy Power wants to qualify, it must achieve results. After the first launch is successful..."
Qu Li went to Galaxy Power to give them a motivation, and then went back to make preparations. The rocket launch time was coming soon.
The domestic aerospace industry is definitely better than SpaceX. The lunar exploration project and the space station are beyond the capabilities of SpaceX. But in terms of rocket launches alone, SpaceX should have the advantage in ten years. This can be seen from the load tonnage and the number of rocket launches.
out.
Domestic leaders have seen the success of SpaceX and it is impossible to say that they have not been touched. But what can they do? It is not that rich people are unwilling to invest money. It is because domestic aerospace is different from that of the United States.
If there are no suppliers, that is to say, if the country does not take the initiative to open up this industry and encourage private capital to enter, no one can do it.
Galaxy Power employees are basically from the aerospace department, and a few are from Honor and Jumei. But now they are only doing some prototype design and have not reached the production stage at all, let alone the launch site. What should we do in the future? Qu Li is now
Haven't thought about it yet.
There is no way out. If it doesn't work at home, then choose abroad, or build a factory in Xiangjiang for production and launch in the South China Sea, so the choice of rockets becomes clearer.
Of course, things will not come to this point. The country will open up the industry soon, but sea launches will inevitably become an option for them, because there are upper limits on the launch capabilities of several major domestic rocket launch sites. How can private enterprises compete with them?
"We must know what is happening and why. SpaceX is using forklifts to transport rocket engines. We can't build a dust-free workshop and operate it carefully, right?" Qu Li gave full play to the layman's ability to guide the expert and made some outrageous demands.
Anyway, he has not seen the domestic rocket production and manufacturing process and blindly believes that SpaceX is unique.
This time I went to the satellite launch base in person and did not see the production process, but someone accompanied me and introduced the power of domestic rockets and various parameters all the way. Qu Li, who had studied before, forgot all the books he read and only remembered the comparison.
tonnage.
"I heard that some of us have quit and are willing to start from scratch with you. Now that you see our strength, what do you think? Do you still have confidence..."
"..." Qu Li was speechless. Someone actually wanted to attack him.
"It's okay. Even if I fail and I go bankrupt, they will still earn more than if I stayed in the company."
"..."
This time it was the turn of the small leader of the aerospace department to be depressed, and the rich man could not afford to stay in the house.
"Our aerospace department is really short of money. If you are willing to sponsor, it is not impossible to fly to space for tourism." The young leader said.
Qu Li is not a novice with no social experience. Even if he doesn’t know the level of the person who is hosting him, if he wants to realize space tourism in the country, even the super rich must consider social influence. The aerospace department can decide where.
.
Then, Qu Li met the three astronauts who flew this time and gave them a Honor suit: a mobile phone, tablet and laptop, plus a drone and a balance car.
Even Qu Li didn't know that many young people in this base were actually his "fans". A bunch of people asked him to take a photo, which satisfied some of his vanity. Then before the rocket went up, Qu Li came looking for this person.
The person in charge of the base discussed sponsorship matters.
The relevant departments have created opportunities for him, so he can't give up without fighting for them!
