Chapter 932: Whose Forecast Is Accurate?

"How did it become an indefinite postponement again?"

Zhuang Jianye was postponed before he came, but when he arrived at the launch center, it became an indefinite postponement, and you must know that postponement and indefinite postponement are completely different concepts in the aerospace field, where the concept of time is accurate to a few decimal places after a second.

You must know that at this moment, the Chang Si rocket responsible for launching has been fully assembled, part of the fuel has been filled, and it is okay to hit it, once it stops, many parts inside the Chang Si rocket will be damaged due to fuel corrosion, and the cost and time of replacing the parts will be a very tiring process.

So don't say that it's postponed indefinitely, even if it's postponed for a few hours, Zhuang Jianye can't stand it.

"Contact Motorola right away and make sure you find out why. Zhuang Jianye immediately instructed his assistant boy to contact Motorola, and the commander of the launch center and others at the same time also came to inquire about the situation.

Without waiting for Zhuang Jianye to deal with it, the head of the Beijing headquarters also caught up with the phone at this moment, and opened his mouth with one sentence: "What is the situation? Why did you postpone the launch?"

At this time, the Chinese and foreign reporters outside the gate of the launch center building learned that Zhuang Jianye, the head of the Tengfei Group who was responsible for the launch mission, had come, and they were ready to come in to interview, and pushed each other with the staff of the launch center who blocked them, causing chaos at the scene.

As for the distance, many people are watching coldly, deliberately looking at Zhuang Jianye's anxious jokes, and will gloat for a long time and say: "A person who is engaged in aviation still wants to do aerospace, and he doesn't look in the mirror to take a look, cut ~~~ It's a big fun, it's all over the city before it is launched, now it's okay, see how he ends!"

It is no wonder that Zhuang Jianye will be so sarcastic to see the excitement, for this commercial launch, Zhuang Jianye can be said to have invested a lot of money, not only invited major media to report, but also said that a heavyweight media in the capital came to broadcast the launch live, which is not counted, but also invited a number of mainstream media outside the country to report.

Zhuang Jianye's meaning is obvious, that is, he wants to use this successful commercial launch to make a free global advertisement.

The problem is that the launch must be successful in order to be effective, and once it fails, it will not only have no effect, but will be subject to unpredictable backlash, and may even directly interrupt the process of Tengfei Group's entry into the aerospace field.

If others can understand this, Zhuang Jianye can naturally understand it, so he didn't pay attention to the Chinese and foreign reporters outside the door, let alone the envious and jealous little shrimps, but followed the commander of the launch center, Liang Xiaoping and others to an empty conference room.

After waiting for a while, he didn't see the little boy come back, Zhuang Jianye was also a little anxious, so he took out his eldest brother, quickly pressed the number, and asked directly without politeness after connecting: "Merlintz, you tell me the truth, why did Motorola delay the launch?"

"Zhuang, I knew you were going to call me, but my friend, you can cause me hundreds of millions of dollars in losses this time......"

"To put it bluntly, if it's because of me, I'll take it all in. Before Merlinz could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Zhuang Jianye.

Merlinz on the other end of the phone smiled slightly: "I like you to be so decisive, Zhuang, it's a pity that you are not in the United States, otherwise your achievements will be limitless, but such a talented person has been delayed by China, which is backward in overall technology...... Just like this time, there is no problem with your Chang-4 rocket, but the support capacity of the launch site is up for debate, we have just received a forecast from the United States Weather Administration about the weather around the West Field, and there will be charged cumulonimbus clouds over the West Field in the next 50 days, you know, the launch vehicle is most afraid of this kind of weather, so this period is not suitable for launch, as for next year's ......"

Merlintz paused for a moment, seemed to drink something to moisten his throat, and then said slowly: "There are many rainy weather in the first half of the year, and the problem of the angle of the earth's autobiography is also not suitable for launching, so ...... I have no choice but to postpone it indefinitely!"

Merlintz said this as if he was joking, and Zhuang Jianye's teeth itched, but he couldn't say a word of rebuttal, so he could only hold back and chat for a while before hanging up the phone, and then immediately looked at Liang Xiaoping and the commander of the launch center with a calm face: "I just asked, the Americans said that their meteorological bureau predicted that there will be charged cumulonimbus clouds over our western field in the next 50 days, and there is no window for launching, so I want to ask, is it the accuracy of the Americans' weather forecast, or our own accuracy!"

......

At the same time, in a high-end hotel in Shanghai, Mellintz put down the big brother in his hand, smiled like a blooming chrysanthemum, brilliant, picked up a glass of red wine on the table, took a sip slightly, like an aftertaste, like a dream, and said: "My dear Zhuang, it's the first time I've seen you so anxious for so many years, well~~ Yes, I can make you anxious~~~"

As he spoke, Merlinz picked up the phone next to him again, skillfully dialed a number, and said slowly after connecting: "I'll just say it once, you remember ...... clearly"

......

At the reception of the West Field Satellite Launch Center, Michael Otron, a reporter from the Houston Space News in the United States, had just come out of the bathroom when he saw a large group of colleagues walking in dejectedly, and hurriedly greeted a reporter from Sky TV in the United Kingdom, Elena: "Hi~~ What's wrong with you?

"Good luck for you, Otrien, that Zhuang is very arrogant, he didn't even look at us, and followed the staff of the launch center to the office building of the launch center, really, it is the first time I have seen such a rude person to the media. ”

Elena didn't speak, but Quinn, the photographer who followed her, complained all at once.

Otrine couldn't help frowning: "He even refused the national heavyweight media that broadcast for him?"

"Of course, but it seems that those people don't care, after all, it's not a free media, it doesn't matter!" Quinn pouted, not without irony, and at the same time snuggled his chin at the heavyweight media, Otline followed the prestige, only to see that in front of the live broadcast car marked with the word XXTV, several staff members were doing pre-live debugging work, looking at that meticulous appearance, as if they could devote themselves to a great cause in the next moment.

Otrien couldn't help but snort contemptuously: "It's okay to work hard and be useful, but the reality is in vain, and I don't know if those heavyweight media people will cry when they hear the truth." ”

As soon as these words came out, Quinn was nothing, but Elena, who had never spoken, relied on her intuition as a media person for many years, keenly captured the meaning of Otrien's words, immediately stopped, turned her pretty face and asked, "Mr. O'Delane, you just said 'the truth'?

"Of course!" Ottleine did not hide it, and smiled brightly at Elena: "This time, the space launch of the Tengfei Group is doomed to failure, and more than one billion dollars in compensation will be paid for it!"
