Chapter 897: Academician Xu succeeds and fails Academician Xu
Jinling, Qixiashan New Development Zone.
Surrounding the Xinghai Research Institute, a new industrial park has been established here, housing many high-tech companies and related enterprises.
In a newly built office building not long ago, Liu Gaoyi, who had just finished a video conference, rubbed his sore temples, threw his suit jacket into the corner of the sofa, sat down, and looked at
There was a gloomy look on his face.
He had just received news that he had unexpectedly lost the bid for the second phase construction project of the lunar outpost scientific research station led by Xinghai Research Institute.
Since 2021, China has incorporated the development of the aerospace field into the national development strategy and opened up great policy and tax incentives to private enterprises. A large number of private aerospace enterprises have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.
Especially the fact that investment in the aerospace field can be double deducted from taxes is enough to make most capital excited.
Not only major Internet companies have announced their entry into the aerospace field, but there are also aerospace companies that have emerged with the promotion of various capitals.
The same goes for Aerospace Technology Company, which is also a company that has become popular in this wave of trends.
However, unlike those companies that only talk about concepts, Aerospace Technology is an aerospace company that truly has "technology".
At the beginning, Aerospace Technology was engaged in commercial remote sensing satellites.
It is mainly committed to researching and developing core satellite manufacturing technologies, providing satellite remote sensing information service platforms, etc.
But as China began to vigorously support the development of private aerospace companies, investors came to him to provide financing and technology to Aerospace Technology, helping Aerospace Technology develop launch vehicle technology.
A large amount of capital, coupled with the improved launch vehicle preparation technology brought by investors, has made Aerospace Science and Technology one of the top five or even top three private aerospace companies in China.
Liu Gaoyi was also curious about where these launch vehicle technologies, which can be said to be very complete and detailed, came from.
The explanation from the investors was obtained from Galaxy Power Aerospace Technology Company, the only company in China capable of independently launching rockets.
But he knows very well that judging from their current technological development in the aerospace field, Galaxy Power Aerospace Technology is simply not enough to provide such advanced aerospace technology.
You must know that with this technology, they have obtained many projects from the Aerospace Science and Technology Group and the Space Administration.
However, Galaxy Power did not receive as much as them.
So he wouldn't believe it if he said that this aerospace technology was obtained from Galaxy Power.
Of course, he doesn't care where these aerospace technologies come from. What he cares about is the profits these technologies can bring him.
When China strongly supports the development of aerospace enterprises, it uses this aerospace technology to obtain aerospace resources from the Space Administration, Aerospace Science and Technology Group, and even the Xiashu Space Base.
The most correct approach is to then use the operation of capital to package, finance, and finally list the company to draw benefits from the stock market.
And in fact, they did the same.
With the help of projects obtained from the Aerospace Science and Technology Group and the Space Administration, and in the name of participating in lunar development, they have already played a set of combination cards on the market.
And it has already made a name for itself with this combination of cards, and is about to conduct its third round of financing.
The amount of the third round of financing is 3 billion, accounting for 15% of the company's equity.
This means that the valuation of Aerospace Technology has reached 20 billion RMB.
No matter which country it is placed in, this valuation is quite influential in the aerospace field.
Pigs standing on the wind will be carried up to the sky by the waves of the times.
So it doesn't matter where the technology comes from.
The only thing that gives Liu Gaoyi a headache is that they are now starting to break away from the Xinghai Research Institute, or the Xia Shu Space Base.
They caught up with the bidding for the first phase of the lunar outpost scientific research station base.
And it was precisely because they caught up with the construction of the Yuehuatai Outpost Scientific Research Station and were allocated some resources for low-Earth orbit transfer that they were able to develop rapidly.
However, now, the bidding for construction of the second phase has failed.
This is an extremely uncomfortable thing for them, who want to expand their market value, further occupy the market and go public in the name of participating in lunar development.
The inability to participate in the project of the Xia Shu Space Base means that the current projects led by China, such as the lunar outpost scientific research station base and the lunar biosphere project, have nothing to do with them.
Then the development of aerospace technology will face a heavy setback.
Leaning on the sofa, Liu Gaoyi stared at the ceiling and thought about how to get to the Xinghai Research Institute and Xia Shu Space Base.
If it were someone else, he would always have some way to contact the person in charge of the company or other group leaders through various relationships.
But facing the Xinghai Research Institute, this trick really has no effect.
The entire institute is built around that person. Without his opinion, it can be said that it is almost impossible to become a partner in a field like aerospace.
And if you want to get to know that scholar, this is even more difficult to do.
His scope of activities is so narrow that even if he wants to make friends, there is almost no way for him to make friends.
Moreover, if you want to find him through the network, I am afraid that he will be clearly investigated the next second as soon as he starts taking action.
The last time they took part in the construction of the first phase of the Yuehuatai Outpost Scientific Research Station, it was simply because there were no other private aerospace companies in the country that could compete with them.
They have more mature low-Earth orbit material transfer technology.
It is really Academician Xu who succeeds and fails Academician Xu.
It was he who promoted the vigorous development of China's aerospace field and brought a new outlet.
It was also him who closed the door to aerospace technology, causing him to instantly fall into a fog.
Just when I was worrying about how to participate in the development of the moon, the office door was pushed open and a man in casual clothes walked in.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Seeing this person, Liu Gaoyi frowned and said, "Why are you here?"
The middle-aged man who walked in smiled and said, "I heard that the company's participation in the second phase of the lunar scientific research base construction project has failed again?"
Liu Gaoyi said expressionlessly: "Does this have anything to do with you? You don't participate in the company's decision-making."
The man smiled nonchalantly and said, "But all the shareholders are quite dissatisfied with this matter. Whether they can participate in the development of the moon will determine the future of the company."
"and...."
After a pause, he looked at Liu Gaoyi from top to bottom, and then said: "Don't forget the gambling agreement. If the company cannot be listed within three years, you will have to pay 20% of your equity.
"
As a shareholder of Aerospace Technology, he is the most important figure in the rise of Aerospace Technology as he has brought new launch vehicle technology.
Although he is not the one calling the shots behind the scenes, it does not prevent him from easily controlling the opponent.
Smiling, he continued: "But...I can help you one more time."
Across the sofa, Liu Gaoyi fell silent after hearing this.
Although he currently still holds about 60% of the shares, the planned shareholding in the second round of financing will be 15%.
If the gambling agreement fails, he will directly lose control of the company.
After a moment of silence, Liu Gaoyi looked at the other party and said hoarsely: "How are you going to help me?"
If we cannot board the moon development ship, there is no hope of achieving the company's goal of going public within three years.
Especially now that more than a year has passed, and there are less than two years left, it is difficult to imagine what he will do to bring aerospace technology to a level where it can be successfully launched.
Should we continue to look for our old friends from the Aerospace Science and Technology Group?
It's impossible. The Aerospace Science and Technology Group itself is now a mud Buddha crossing the river and cannot be saved.
After the Xinghai Research Institute controlled by that person entered the aerospace field, it took away a large amount of aerospace resources and needs. The development of the moon was almost all carried out at the Xiashu Space Base.
Although the established aerospace technology groups can also participate, they can also get some share of the pie.
Although the cake is larger, the influence of aerospace technology has been much weaker than before when it almost controlled the entire aerospace discourse.
As far as the current situation is concerned, aerospace technology simply does not have the ability to pull aerospace technology up.
As for finding that person, that's even more impossible.
He couldn't even see the other person's face.
Although he knew that the man named 'Wang Gong' in front of him also had bad intentions, he didn't have much choice.
If you don't want to lose it all.
Wang Gong smiled and said: "I can provide the company with some more launch vehicle technology, which can increase the payload by 20%. I believe this is enough to make the company one of the top three aerospace companies."
"And technological breakthroughs, whether it is public opinion or momentum, or more aerospace resources can be obtained from aerospace science and technology, space agencies, or even Xinghai Research Institute."
"I believe you understand the power of snowballing better than I do."
Like a fallen demon, Wang Gong used words to seduce Liu Gaoyi bit by bit.
In the office, the atmosphere of silence lasted for a long time.
After swallowing, Liu Gaoyi said in a hoarse voice: "What do I need to pay?"
There is no such thing as a free lunch, and he knows this very well.
Capital has no feelings, so even brothers have to settle accounts clearly. The other party is not his father and mother, so it is impossible for him to provide him with such huge help for free.
Especially the launch vehicle technology is the top scientific research achievement in the aerospace field.
But he really had no other choice.
In other words, he was already in the trap from the moment he accepted this person's investment.
The rest will either die and the net will be broken, no, they will just die, or the road will end in darkness.
Seeing that Liu Gaoyi had already made a decision, Wang Gong smiled and said casually: "It's not much, I just need a little bit of equity and the provision of some information."
After a slight pause, he continued: "You still have 63.5% of the equity, and I want 5%."
"In addition, I need to know what the Xinghai Research Institute and the Aerospace Group are doing."
"For you, I believe this is not a difficult task, and it will not interfere with your decision-making power for the entire company. Aerospace technology is still in your hands, and it will become the largest private aerospace enterprise in China after it is listed in the future."
