MTL - Rebirth 2008: I Can Make Money Reading-v2 Chapter 452 Shocked the leader again
Is it the business of private enterprises to engage in rocket launches?
It is not impossible for private enterprises to launch rockets, but it is thankless. The cycle of turning investment into profit is very long, and most of the money invested is wasted.
Leader Sheng Shi and the boss were shocked because they felt that the Xinghai Group was doing such a thankless thing, and it was a bit of a stride, why did they get into aerospace all of a sudden.
In fact, if it is a normal historical trajectory, in May next year, "Made in Huaguo 2025" was released, calling for accelerating the construction of national civil space infrastructure and the development of aerospace.
And in October 2015 next year, several departments of the GUO will jointly release the "Medium and Long-term Development Plan for Civil Space Infrastructure", encouraging private capital to actively participate in the space industry.
Since then, private commercial rocket companies have sprung up like mushrooms after rain, and have been established one after another.
In those few years, four domestic private rocket companies made eight attempts to launch into orbit, and the rockets of two companies successfully entered orbit one after another.
Therefore, in the previous life, my country’s commercial spaceflight started in 2015. In the next few years, the scale of my country’s commercial spaceflight market will grow rapidly, with an annual growth rate of more than 20%.
According to statistics, in 2013, my country's commercial aerospace market reached 300 billion yuan, and by 2022, it is expected to reach 1.5 trillion yuan. Its upstream industries are mainly rocket manufacturing, satellite manufacturing and supply of raw materials, and its downstream industries are mainly satellite operations, applications and services.
The commercial satellite launch market has boomed in recent years, prompting a surge in demand for low-cost launch vehicles.
According to statistics, in the next 10 years, 20,000 to 30,000 satellites will need to be launched around the world, and the demand for rockets is huge.
However, for private aerospace companies, launch vehicle technology is difficult, the development cycle is long, and production capacity is slow to increase. Therefore, GUOs have also introduced relevant support policies.
Only commercialization can accelerate the development of national aerospace. Perhaps the drafting of a civilian spaceflight program has already begun.
The boss was silent for a while, and said: "It is not impossible for the Xinghai Group to enter aerospace, and it is even possible to build a rocket launch base.
Originally, the relevant departments were also discussing this matter, and it was planned to be launched next year, and the relevant departments are currently improving the plan.
Since Mr. Mu mentioned it, I can give you the answer now. It is not a problem that Xinghai Group can enter aerospace as the first batch of private capital.
However, it should be noted that the location of the rocket launch base must avoid densely populated areas. At that time, Xinghai Group will come up with a detailed plan and let the expert group discuss safety issues.
Mr. Mu, you have to be mentally prepared. Aerospace research and development is a thankless task. The market size is large, but the return on investment cycle is very long, and it is possible that you will not even earn a penny.
Although the Xinghai Group has strong funds, aerospace is a big hole. No matter how you fill it, it will not be able to fill it. It is difficult to produce results with all the power of a country. Isn’t the Guo family next door just being dragged down? We have invested so much in the past so many years. Investment, this account is really difficult to calculate.
So, Mr. Mu, if the progress is not going well, stop in moderation and take your time. By the way, do you have an envisioned location now? "
Mu Yang heard the words and understood what the boss said, the Guo family invests up to 100 billion yuan in spaceflight every year.
This is not counting the cost of mobilizing other resources. If Muyang cannot be opened, even if Xinghai Group makes hundreds of billions of dollars in annual profits, if it gets too deep and fails to produce results, a company might be dragged down by this aerospace project.
"Thank you for the care and support of the leaders. Aerospace is not only my dream, but also the dream of all Xinghai Group employees.
I also hope that the Xinghai Group will explore by itself, hoping to find a different way of spaceflight, and contribute to the GUO family. Mu Yang said gratefully, "The aerospace project will not affect other research and development projects. We have already laid the foundation and are ready.
At present, the site is planned to be located in the coastal area, Dagutou, Xiangshan County, Ningbo City, covering an area of about 6 square kilometers, and the direct distance away from the population center is about 15 kilometers.
We chose this place because of the convenience of transportation. Some large-scale equipment may be very difficult to transport by road. We plan to put the production base in No. 2 Industrial Park in Yangfu District. After production, the equipment can go directly to the sea by the Qianjiang River.
The second is that the northwest region is too remote, not only difficult to transport, but also inconvenient to absorb talents. It is too far away from the headquarters, which makes it inconvenient to work. "
Mu Yang chose to be close to the seaside, not only because of the short distance and convenient transportation, but also because of the richness of marine resources in the future. As long as he can get smart robots by himself, it is also very good to dig rare resources in the deep sea.
It's also close to the island country. It's cool to sneak over to dig out the other party's resources without the other party noticing it.
The island only occupies one-third of the land area, and it can be expanded in the later stage, and the big deal is reclamation.
"The waterway is convenient, that place is really good." Zhang Wei praised.
In fact, he was still worried that Muyang would leave City H. Aerospace is a big investment. If Muyang chooses the northwest region or the west region, it has nothing to do with City H.
The boss has his own judgment, but since Mu Yang has already selected the place, if there are no major problems, it is not impossible, so he said: "It is indeed good, report the plan, let the relevant departments investigate, development still needs to pay attention to protection environment, if there are no major problems, we can only choose another location.”
"This is what it should be. If it doesn't work there, I have two other site selection plans." Mu Yang nodded in understanding, "In addition to building a launch base, I also plan to build an airstrip."
In Mu Yang's plan, launching rockets is just to lay the foundation for spaceflight, and this technology is not that simple, otherwise other countries would have already mastered it.
Technologies such as propulsion technology, cryogenic technology, rocket recycling, separation and start-up of rockets at all levels, rocket speed adjustment, orbit alignment, high-temperature-resistant materials, rocket body design, power system, flight control system, safety control system, and communication measurement system are very complicated. .
In fact, what he wants to do most at the moment is aerospace aircraft. The runway is not only prepared for aerospace aircraft, there may be other aerospace vehicle tests.
Perhaps, in the future, Mu Yang intends to develop a vertical take-off and landing space shuttle, but the runway can still be used as a backup.
Mu Yang also wanted to do it in one step, go directly to the space plane, and do some rocket launches.
However, things are not that simple. Even if it can be opened, it is not possible to buy the real thing directly.
Aviation and spaceflight are two different technical fields. Spaceflight has already flown out of the earth's atmosphere, entered the orbit of the planet, and even left the orbit of the planet.
The minimum speeds required for an aircraft to circle the earth, leave the earth, and fly out of the solar system are called the first, second, and third cosmic speeds, which are 7.9 km/s, 11.2 km/s, and 16.7 km/s, respectively.
The aerospace plane must meet the first cosmic speed.
If a rocket wants to fly out of the atmosphere and enter orbit, it must at least reach the first cosmic speed.
Like a fighter jet, maybe two or three times the speed of sound is very fast, but it still cannot accelerate into the earth orbit, it needs about 12-25 times the speed of sound.
Moreover, if you use fuel as power under the condition of hypoxia, you need to bring your own liquid oxygen.
In the final analysis, conventional energy power can no longer meet the requirements. It is better to use controllable nuclear fusion power, which is not produced by the current Muyang Energy.
Mu Yang wants to directly buy the technology of the aerospace plane, but the aerospace plane is already a special item, which needs basic aviation technologies such as supersonic aircraft and rocket launch, and cannot be purchased directly.
This is also good, to avoid faults in aerospace technology.
After all, aerospace planes are not at the same technical level as aviation planes and aviation fighter jets, and the requirements are too high. Not to mention other things, only the three technologies of energy, aircraft high-temperature-resistant materials, and aircraft high-strength structural materials are stuck.
Even by 2022, no country has developed a real aerospace plane, not even a quasi-space plane.
If it is really done, it will be too much of a threat to other countries.
Therefore, if the Xinghai Group wants to develop an aerospace plane, it can only do it secretly, and cannot allow the
Developed countries know.
Before obtaining aerospace aircraft technology, technical issues such as energy, high-temperature resistant materials and coating materials, ultra-high-strength materials, and supersonic aircraft engines can be solved first.
The boss was a little curious: "Building an airstrip, do you plan to study airplanes too?"
"Let's prepare for the aerospace plane." Mu Yang knew that there were some things that could not be concealed by the big boss, and that he might need to mobilize national resources to develop faster.
"..."
The boss was shocked again, and so were the other Sheng Shi leaders.
It seems that Mu Yang is no longer on the same level as them. Everyone still wants to study high technology. He is not only high-tech and top-notch technology, he is already thinking about black technology and alien technology.
If you hear Mu Yang's whimsical ideas again, don't be surprised anymore, you have to get used to his unrestrained thoughts that day. UU Reading www. uukanshu.com
The boss reconfirmed: "Mr. Mu, did I hear correctly, aerospace planes, aren't supersonic planes and civil aviation planes?"
"It's an aerospace plane, which is a different level than a supersonic plane. It can enter the earth's orbit." Mu Yang nodded, "Of course, this road is very difficult, and it may not be able to be developed in ten years."
"Well, you just need to be mentally prepared. This is much more difficult than your lithography machine." The boss didn't have any hope for this. Even Mu Yang himself didn't have much confidence, so he probably just wanted to try it.
"It doesn't have to be successful, maybe in the process of research and development, it is possible to come up with some advanced technologies, such as high-temperature resistant materials, ultra-high-strength materials, etc." Mu Yang smiled, even if it can be opened, with the current He really didn't have much confidence in the situation, so he could only take one step at a time.
But at least he can open it, the system has pointed out the correct path for him. It would be strange if you could find your way by yourself.
After talking about this, it was time for lunch, and Mu Yang planned to talk about the second request in the afternoon.
