Chapter 323 Even Worse

Xu Chuang was confused for a moment: “So soon? No…why didn’t I receive any notification?”

“Have you received it now?”

“I am a shareholder after all. Can I participate in your major decision-making?”

Xu Chuang was somewhat reluctant. He had finally managed to break away from the identity of a speculative profiteer and was preparing to devote himself to the science and technology innovation industry, but a bucket of cold water was poured on him.

Wei Xiao ignored him and said, “You are a shareholder, not the boss. Besides, I am following your wishes and launching the project as soon as possible. Can you not have both?”

“The point is that I’ve learned a lot about commercial aerospace these days.”

“You are learning without knowing anything. Do you know how deep the water is in the commercial aerospace industry? Make as much money as you can. Everything else will be in vain.” Wei Xiao explained lazily.

It’s fine if others have questions.

If Xu Chuang has doubts, let him have them.

“I have submitted it for approval. It won’t be a big problem. Now you have to decide what to send up.”

Now the ideas of the project are very clear.

The technology is complete and approval can be implemented at any time.

Thousand-Armed Guanyin is close to ninety-nine percent complete.

The remaining one percent is for Miaoyin Network, the shipper, to confirm its products.

According to previous publicity, SF Express is responsible for delivery and the package will be shipped by Miaoyin.

In this way, the two companies can maximize the publicity effect.

At this point, Xu Chuang could only take out the marketing plan he had previously planned.

“Regarding the specific cargo, Director Jiang Kun has already drawn up a plan for us.”

“Jiang Kun? Whose blood is he taking again?” Wei Xiao was very impressed by this man. He was indeed good at attracting traffic.

“His general idea is to organize several live broadcasts on the days leading up to the launch, and then find a node, like an anniversary, to draw a lucky customer on the platform, and then send his package into space with a rocket, and broadcast the whole process live.”

“Randomly draw a lucky audience member and reward him with a big rocket?”

“Is such that.”

“OR”

Wei Xiao’s mouth opened particularly wide.

Don’t tell me yet.

Jiang Kun really knows how to attract attention.

In fact, it doesn’t matter what package Miaoyin sends. What matters is that it is sent out and seen by people.

The live broadcast effect will definitely be maximized by selecting lucky viewers.

This also meets the minimum requirement for Miaoyin to invest in the company.

Thinking about it, Wei Xiao nodded and said, “Okay, go and look for it. Are there any anniversaries in late March or early April?”

“There is no anniversary, it’s not 618 or Double 13,” Xu Chuang calculated for a long time. “Is it okay to say that our platform was established 88 years and days ago?”

“Look again…”

……

……

at the same time.

System Engineering Department of the Science and Technology Commission.

A systematic meeting focusing on aerospace is underway, chaired by Xie Dongkui, who is also the director of the first department.

The Systems Engineering Department I has another more popular name – Aviation Bureau.

This unit is responsible for almost all domestic aerospace work.

However, the main participants in the meeting today are not the backbone of the lunar exploration and manned space program, but the backbone of several second-tier departments of development planning and economic coordination.

“I will not convey the spirit today. Today we are mainly discussing specific methods.”

“How to effectively and efficiently lay out space orbits.”

“Have you ever played checkers?”

“The chessboard is so small. Whoever occupies it first wins.”

“Don’t think that there are only three countries capable of space exploration now, but some of our opponents are very powerful and can explore dozens or hundreds of stars at a time.”

“At this rate, if we don’t speed up, we will be forced into a dead end sooner or later.”

Xie Dongkui’s livid face showed that the atmosphere of today’s meeting was not relaxed.

In fact, similar work has been planned since he took office.

But the results are minimal.

At this time, a person in charge of the Development Planning Department raised his hand and said, “I feel that the inertia of our current policies has not yet changed.”

Xie Dongkui said expressionlessly: “Tell me more about it.”

“In the past, when we were engaged in aerospace, we focused on quality, which led to the fact that some projects were constantly improving from demonstration to approval, and the time span was very long.”

“Then the working standards of the entire sector are based on these.”

“It may be difficult for us to switch to a quantitative model in a short period of time.”

Xie Dongkui’s mouth drooped: “There are difficulties, but this is not an excuse.”

“Yes, it’s impossible to rely on the System Engineering Department to handle all the tracks.”

“The place is so big, it’s a fantasy to expect one family to occupy it all.”

“So use your brains. If you can’t take care of it yourself, then work together.”

“How many times have I told you to support commercial aerospace and private enterprises? What results have you really achieved?”

“………”

In the long silence, Xie Dongkui’s voice became more and more deafening.

“There are now countless companies in China that can independently design and manufacture satellites.”

“The products and services of this group of companies represented by Juguang Satellite are completely in line with the standards.”

“They have a lot of launch needs.” “And our space transportation capabilities are very weak.”

“The missions at several launch bases are almost piled up until next year.”

“This shows the backwardness of our industrial planning.”

“There are roads and passengers at home, but there are no cars.”

“Everyone here, including myself, must reflect on this.”

Xie Dongkui did not blame any one person.

He acknowledged that the gaps were systemic and comprehensive.

Domestic satellite service demand and output are normal.

The only problem is that the transportation capacity is not enough, which means that companies in need can only rely on Long March rockets.

The demand and the amount of emission are totally disproportionate.

Even if the Long March series could be carried to Mars, it would not be able to meet the current satellite demand, let alone occupy territory.

“The best time to plant a tree is ten years ago. The second best time is now.”

“I ask you to negotiate and come up with an industrial plan for me.”

“The focus should be on supporting companies that have the ability to conduct rocket and aircraft research and development.”

“This industry generally requires high investment, so you have to be willing to take risks.”

“The Ministry of Economic Affairs must coordinate with various financial institutions to prepare financing channels for enterprises.”

“When the time comes, we will produce a form and provide unconditional support to any enterprise that meets the requirements. If they need technology, we will provide technology; if they need money, we will provide money.”

The pens of the participants quickly took notes on the paper, and the pen tips made a resonant rustling sound.

Xie Dongkui emphasized again: “Of course, we must hold on to this line.”

“You can’t say that you are a business and you can get support.”

“I know a little bit about the commercial space industry, but most of them are fake.”

“Some companies don’t have much technology, but they still want to climb up the ladder, take advantage of the popularity in the secondary market, and speculate on their stock prices.”

“A very few companies just set up a makeshift team, produced a PowerPoint presentation, and then used the guise of commercial aerospace to defraud money and subsidies everywhere.”

“Even worse, some are so eager for quick success and instant benefits that they don’t care about their reputation in order to raise funds. They use the solid rocket technology from ten years ago to casually launch satellites into space to attract attention. You see the satellites go up into space, but in fact they are of no use at all.”

“We must put an end to all of the above.”

Xie Dongkui knew very well that if clear standards were not set for supporting industries, it would be easy to go astray in implementation.

This is partly why today’s commercial space market is sluggish.

The profit-seeking nature of private enterprises cannot be changed.

No matter what they do, they will first focus on money, so their help to the industry is limited.

With the experience of previous failure, he decided to stick to the bottom line this time and hand over the support policies to the companies that really need them.

What he said about ‘some enterprises’, ‘very few enterprises’ and ‘even worse’ are all completely applicable.

The people below also knew which companies these three personalities were referring to, so very few people raised their hands to speak.

However, some people still went against the current and raised their hands.

“Director Xie, I would like to report that Shunfeng is currently working on a project in this area.”

Hearing this, Xie Dongkui’s eyes finally cleared up a little: “I have an impression of this. How are they doing?”

“There should be some progress. They recently submitted a report hoping to get some support.”

Xie Dongkui didn’t even think twice: “Sure! We should support companies like Shunfeng and Chendun.”

“Chen Chen and I communicate frequently, and I have some ideas about several of their projects.”

“The Thousand-armed Avalokitesvara and Tathagata Palm in the early stage are both very good, and the techniques are unique.”

“The most important thing is that neither Shunfeng nor Chendun are short-sighted companies that seek quick success and instant benefits.”

“It’s not a film that sells dog meat under the guise of sheep meat.”

“Chen Chen and Wei Xiao are both scientific and technological entrepreneurs with strategic vision. We must support them!”

Xie Dongkui’s speech was somewhat personal.

But there is no way.

Who said there are only two college students in the family?

Don’t tell me that people are taking the initiative now.

Even if Chen Dun did not take the initiative to engage in space science, Xie Dongkui wanted to persuade him to join in privately.

Xie Dongkui felt relieved when he thought about it: “Shunfeng must have thought it through carefully. What kind of support do they want?”

“It’s mainly about the launch process. They hope the approval can be faster.”

“Sure, when do they want to launch?” Xie Dongkui nodded subconsciously.

“Late March, early April.”

Xie Dongkui still nodded: “Next year? Chen Chen is quick enough, okay, give them the green light…”

Before Xie Dongkui finished speaking, someone in the audience hesitated and said, “This year…”

“This year? In the spring?”

Xie Dongkui’s tone was full of disbelief.

In his memory, it had not been long since the first phase of the Thousand-Armed Guanyin exploded.

At that time, Chen Chen said that the technical reserves were not in place, so he decided to start from scratch and master the recycling technology.

How long does it take?

Are they going to clamor for launch?

What skills can be accumulated in this short period of time?
It turns out that Chen Chen, who had been praising Chen Dun and Shun Feng for a long time, didn’t give himself any face at all.

They are eager for quick success and instant benefits, they are selling dog meat under the guise of sheep, and even worse…

Doesn’t this account for everything?
