Chapter 934 Port Leasing
In the lounge next to the Crescent Island training ground, the soldier who had just completed live-fire training was taking a shower and taking out his clothes from his storage box and putting them on.
At this time, everyone noticed that a poster was posted on their storage box.
On the poster is a spaceship, a soldier wearing heavy armor with a rifle in hand, and the background is Mars... Zhang Feng is not sure whether it is Mars. Anyway, looking at the surface of the bare planet, it is definitely not the Earth.
"Aerospace Defense Force? What is this?" Tear off the propaganda, Zhang Feng rubbed his wet short hair with a towel on his shoulder, sat on the bench next to him and carefully looked at the small words on the propaganda poster.
"Maybe, is this a movie that has just been released?" The Mexican machine gunner in his team walked to the side and leaned over. "How did those who posted advertisements come in? This is a military restricted area."
"Think about it with your brain, Jack," a big hand slapped on the shoulder of the old Mexican man, and the rifleman Liu Duntao grinned, "Since this is a military restricted area, of course ours are the ones who post the advertisement."
"I posted the advertisement, of course, it was printed by the command center." A man in military uniform walked into the lounge and took away the hat left on the locker. "You'd better pay attention to it, it's a good thing."
After saying that, the officer from the logistics department turned around and left.
Several soldiers were stunned for a moment and looked at each other.
"I heard that the Star Ring Trade was working on the interstellar colonization program, and I thought they were just talking and playing... Shet, it seems they were serious? We, do we have the chance to go from Marines to Galaxy Marines?"
"Going to fight in outer space? It's so cool!"
"It's great. It's better to fight with aliens who don't know whether they exist or not."
"Sheit, so you are planning to be a deserter? I can't listen to this."
“…”
Ignoring the bragging and spanking of each other by his teammates, Zhang Feng carefully read the words on this promotional advertisement.
To be honest, he was not very interested. After all, he is now the captain of the Marine Corps, leading a team of six people. No one knows what nature this newly established aerospace defense force is and whether it will be valued in the future.
After returning to the dormitory, his roommate happened to come back from the mission and saw the poster he placed on the table.
"I heard that it was a new force ordered by the command headquarters to establish, with high salary and good treatment after retiring. I have signed up for this... orbital airborne troops. Where are you?"
"Me?" Zhang Feng was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, "I'm going to consider it again."
The salary of 12,000 S$12,000 at the end of January is just an ordinary front-line soldier. Those with military rank and command experience are given priority. With his rank and resume, it should be no problem to be transferred from the Marine Corps to be a captain.
The monthly salary of 20,000 Singapore dollars is almost twice his current salary.
However, it is said that the selection conditions will be very strict. It is said that in addition to physical examinations, gene sequencing is also required. In contrast, the physical fitness requirements of the applicants are relatively low.
According to the poster, even if you are a useless sissy, our hell training will make you a real man.
Should I register?
Zhang Feng shook his head, took out a form from his drawer, and pulled out a fountain pen from the pen holder.
Anyway, I'll try it first, but I may not be able to choose anyway.
Thinking of this, he wrote down his name on the form and simply filled in his resume. He leaned against the chair and stretched his body. He put the form aside and prepared to go to the Military Affairs Office to register when he went to the cafeteria to have dinner later.
...
These days, Jiang Chen has been having a very leisurely life.
The Chinese country has not yet developed any results, so Ye Qinghua has never come to see him again. Russia doesn’t know what the idea is, Natasha doesn’t mention the space elevator, and the Kremlin has not sent anyone.
Europe is very stable. Apart from the ESA published several papers on space elevators that may be affected by climatic conditions and potential safety hazards, they did not have any other actions. They were trapped in the quagmire of economic crisis, and they did not have the spare money to develop space resources.
NASA in the United States called and simply consulted about the business status of the space elevator and the fees for track use. Jiang Chen asked them to throw a brief information to them, and then sent their people away. When they received the information, they did not call them again.
As for the large, medium and small private enterprises that contact Starring Trade, there are countless. The business phone number of Starring Outer Space Orbit Development Co., Ltd., which is responsible for managing space elevator business, is almost full 24 hours a day. If these companies are arranged in a row, you can almost line up from Koro Island to Silicon Valley!
Among them is spaceX, the US NASA's royal space exploration technology company. The space elevator has completed the first batch of material transportation from the ground to synchronous orbit, and the US private space company is in an instant. The first to be hit is SpaceX, and the market prospects of the Falcon Rockets' billions were instantly estimated to be empty. After several consecutive days of decline, its market value has fallen from US$12 billion to below US$10 billion. Even Google, the wealthy major shareholder, is still very distressed.
Because the call was Elon Musk, the chairman of SpaceX, the operator of Star Ring Company transferred the phone to Jiang Chen.
After the phone was connected, the American legend who had founded PayPal spoke politely.
"Hello, Mr. Jiang. We exchanged business cards at the Silicon Valley High School Conference. I wonder if you still remember me?"
"Of course, Mr. Musk." Jiang Chen quipped with a smile, "even if I haven't exchanged business cards, I still remember you. After all, I grew up drinking your chicken soup."
Musk, a homeless man who is rich enough to rival a country, and Jack Ma, who is not good at his appearance and has a net worth of 10 billion yuan, and the leader of the Qiao Gang who has moved from the trough to the peak. Young men and women are talking about the chicken soup cooked in the space. They are nothing more than ingredient in these seasoning bags. Although Jiang Chen scoffed at the chicken soup in the soul, he was often bombarded by these things when he was in school.
Moreover, he now seems to have become a member of the "chicken soup family".
"An unemployed young man who started from scratch" vaguely remembers that he seemed to be labeled in some inspirational talks?
Although Musk knew Chinese, he did not understand what Jiang Chen said. However, he just hesitated for a moment and ignored this small problem. After all, he called not to chat, but to have a serious plan to talk.
"I wonder if you have any intention to rent space elevator tracks?"
"Starring Trade is willing to provide a synchronous orbit from the departure of the goods to the synchronous orbit. Dragon Service has no intention of leasing and contracting the entire orbit." Jiang Chen said with a smile, and without hesitation he rejected Musk's proposal.
Musk not only was not depressed when he said Jiang Chen, but a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.
"Oh? It seems that you are also quite optimistic about the prospects for the development of outer space resources?"
"Of course, after all, the future is there." Jiang Chen said with a happy look.
"We have a win-win proposal here. I wonder if you are interested?" Musk smiled.
"If it is a project other than the rental track," Jiang Chen emphasized again.
"Although it's related to rental, it's not rental tracks," Musk shook his head, cleared his throat, and said seriously. "SpacsX hopes to rent the port of the space elevator terminal, and the price we offer will not disappoint you."
