"Actually, I've been following the space program for a long time......"

Musk has a rather fanatical look on his face.

In Zhou Fangyuan's impression, Musk will establish a space exploration technology company, which is known as SpaceX, next year at the latest.

It has developed partially reusable Falcon 1 and Falcon 9 launch vehicles in the future, and has also developed a Dragon series of spacecraft to launch into orbit via Falcon 9. In the more distant future, the company has even proposed a Martian migration plan, with plans to launch a manned spacecraft in 2024 and arrive on Mars in 2025.

Whether it will succeed or not, no one knows, but Musk's ambition is really big enough.

As for the project in his dream, how to say it, it is a super money-burning project, basically even if Zhou Fangyuan invests money now, I am afraid there will not be many shares left in the future. In the future, this company will also get all kinds of investment from all sides, no one will be stupid enough to rely on this project to pursue profits, what everyone is pursuing is the concept, and it is the qualification to really get a piece of the pie after the success of this project in the future.

Of course, Zhou Fangyuan also hopes to join this project, but how to say it, Zhou Fangyuan doesn't have much money now. He only has more than 20 million US dollars left in his hand, and although there is still money in the country, when converted into US dollars, it is at the level of tens of millions. Musk's project is really an investment in 100 million US dollars, and Zhou Fangyuan's small money is really not enough to see.

Of course, at this stage, the company has just been established, if he is really willing to invest, according to the investment amount of the two sides, he can indeed occupy a large number of shares. But what's the use of that? If he has more shares, Musk will withdraw and go it alone, but he will take less...... It's not completely meaningless, as mentioned above, what everyone is fighting for now is a qualification, and if you can stand in this position, you will enjoy endless benefits in the future.

Listening to Musk's eloquent talk, Zhou Fangyuan kept nodding.

After Musk finally finished speaking, Zhou Fangyuan lowered his head slightly, and after pretending to think about it, he raised five fingers.

"Fifty million, but I want at least forty shares. ”

"Forty is a bit too much, how about thirty?"

"Thirty is too little, I don't want a controlling stake, and forty words can't shake your position in the company at all. ”

"That's not insurance, and I'm going to look for more investment in this company, so at most thirty, not more. ”

"You're insincere, thirty-five, this is my bottom line, fifty million thirty-five, I don't interfere with your operation of the company at all, and if necessary, I can also provide some other help. ”

"Okay, deal!"

After Musk thought about it for a long time, he finally made a deal.

He is optimistic about Zhou Fangyuan, Zhou Fangyuan's layout on the Internet is very perfect, and Musk can feel the huge potential from it. Therefore, this person is a huge mountain of gold, and everyone can establish a good cooperative relationship, which is also beneficial and harmless for him.

Zhou Fangyuan is also happy, space exploration is such a thing, it makes me feel when I think about it.

It's a pity that he doesn't know if he will be able to go to the moon in his lifetime, he doesn't dare to think about the official channels, and the private channels may be able to consider it. And if the future is really as Musk predicts, then the future of this company is limitless.

Zhou Fangyuan's prophetic ability can last for a maximum of 17 years, and the future after 17 years is completely unfamiliar to him. In order to have endless money to spend in the future, even until the day when the prophetic power is completely gone, then he must make money now, and at the same time pave the way for himself to prepare some industries that will not be easily eliminated in the next few decades.

This is the case with glass factories, and the same is true for food companies, which are all considered industries, and food, clothing, housing, and transportation are in second place, and they are the least likely to collapse. If the glass factory can continue to develop rapidly in the past few years, as long as it can hold a few of the world's top and most important patents in its hands, and have enough money to continue research and development, the future will also be very stable.

On the contrary, it is an Internet company and a media company, this is really hard to say, the ghost knows when a suddenly jumped out of which corner, a bullish company and a bullish game, maybe it can make the distant game drink a pot. The same is true for other Internet companies, so although Internet companies are now powerful and the most profitable under Zhou Fangyuan, they are the most unstable ones, and they may end up one day in the future.

Now investing in Musk's company, what he is doing is also to leave a way back for himself.

Fifty million, I feel distressed now, I don't necessarily feel distressed in the future, failure, it's nothing more than a pain, if I succeed, it will be a mountain of gold that I can't enjoy in the future, and a fool won't invest in it. And not only SpaceX, but even Musk's car company, if he has the opportunity, he will also get a piece of the pie.

Of course not now, let Musk do his own work, anyway, no accident, he will definitely establish this new energy vehicle company in the future, as long as the two sides cooperate happily, Musk will inevitably take the initiative to come to him to invest, which is not a problem.

The two talked for a long time in the conference room, and by the time they left the room, they had reached a resolution.

The specific work will be completed in the next few days, of course, this is only the preliminary work. There is still a lot of work in the later stage, this is An Lin's business, Zhou Fangyuan asked her to take charge of this branch, of course, she didn't let her come to enjoy the fun, she still had to work, if she didn't do a good job, Zhou Fangyuan might remove her.

After five days in the United States, Zhou Fangyuan finally returned home.

After returning to China, he did not go directly to Beitong, but temporarily lived in the capital.

The third brother has settled Andy and them, and is currently renting an office building in the capital temporarily, the company is listed as Yuanfang Communications, the third brother is currently the general manager of this company, and Zhou Fangyuan is the president. Andy takes a stake in technology and enjoys a 15% dry share. However, the price is that after the successful development of the mobile phone system in the future, the patent is hung in the company's name and has nothing to do with Andy. One day he chooses to leave, and the mobile phone system no longer belongs to him.

Andy agreed to such a contract condition, and after all, he himself did not have much confidence in the mobile phone system. In other words, although he thinks the future of the mobile phone described by Zhou Fangyuan is very interesting and cool, but he is not sure whether all this can be realized, Zhou Fangyuan can attract him to Huaxia, on the one hand, Zhou Fangyuan's ability to make him admire, on the other hand, Zhou Fangyuan's promise to establish the best research institute in the world moved him, which made him leave everything he had in the United States and willingly follow Zhou Fangyuan to Huaxia.

As for the mobile phone system, this is a incidental job, once the mobile phone system is completed, they will start to develop the smartphone, and once the smartphone is also developed, Andy is afraid that he will put this stall aside and continue to work on his own new invention.

But it doesn't matter, as long as the system can be developed and most of the market is locked, Zhou Fangyuan can basically sit back and relax.

The third brother has been busy with this matter recently, and when Zhou Fangyuan came to the capital, he had just settled Andy and them. Zhou Fangyuan made a phone call to the third brother's mobile phone, and after learning about it, he asked the third brother to come out for a drink. At the same time, he called Sun Jing and asked her if she was busy now.

As a result, Sun Jing said that she was not busy, so what else was there to say, let's come out together.

In a very ordinary hotel box, Zhou Fangyuan first waited for Sun Jing, and the two hugged each other and kissed for a while. It wasn't until the waiter came and knocked on the door that they separated.

After the third brother walked into the box, he glanced at the two of them with a smile and didn't say anything. But his meaning is already obvious, and only a fool cannot understand it.

Eat, drink, and start talking about things when you're full.

"Andy, how do they feel, the habits of life?"

"Can you get used to it? Fat boy, you don't know, I directly spent money to rent a courtyard house for them, which is equivalent to a small villa, and the price, tsk, I won't say anything. The cooks who hired them for Western food, the housekeepers and nannies, in short, I thought of everything I could think of, and I tried my best to think of what I couldn't think of.

The third brother pursed his lips and said with some disapproval.

"Actually, third brother, if you want to talk about me, you don't have to be so used to them. They want to eat Western food? Yes, they can get it themselves. If you can't learn, you can't eat Chinese food. Compared with Chinese food, Western food can only be regarded as a beginner's meal, which is far worse than ours. You have to cultivate the habit of eating Chinese food, maybe when they get used to Chinese food, they won't like to eat Western food. ”

Zhou Fangyuan said with a smile.

"How is that possible?"

The third brother pouted, "Don't you joke with me, I don't believe in this kind of thing, anyway, I have satisfied them with what they need, and if they are not satisfied, I can't help it, but I shouldn't be dissatisfied, how many people can enjoy this kind of treatment? ”

"Haha, you're the boss, you envy a ghost. Third brother, let me tell you, these people are really important, these people's affairs, can't let anyone know, externally, we are a company that makes mobile phone chips, and we must not let others know what we are doing. ”

Zhou Fangyuan instructed.

"Ahh ”

Thorn said with a frown.

"If you protect it well, you must protect it, and if you don't protect it well, you have to keep it in mind, whether we can eat fat meat for more than ten years in the future depends on this gratification. And the importance of these people is not only to make money, as long as they do well, we will have the right to speak in the future. What is the right to speak without me to say, maybe more than half of the world's mobile phone companies will have to look at our face to act, when the time comes, making money is secondary, the impact of change of direction These mobile phone companies are the most important, always, third brother, you must give me a good look at these people, you must not let them run away secretly, nor let them be released with others indiscriminately. If it doesn't work, let's rent a house in the suburbs, and the office building here can be turned into an office, and the development department will be hidden as much as possible. ”

Zhou Fangyuan also thought of this before, but he deliberately didn't say it, just to see if the third brother could think of it, but it turned out that the third brother didn't expect it, this is a little bit of something that needs to be improved, so he said it now, which is equivalent to a third brother sounding a small alarm bell.

"Well, I'll observe for a few days, and if it doesn't work, I'll let them transfer, really, why didn't you say it earlier, I said it earlier, and I made it seem like I didn't understand anything. ”

The third brother said a little unhappily.

After coming out of the hotel, the third brother took a taxi to the accommodation, he drank alcohol and couldn't drive, so he didn't drive when he came, just to drink with Zhou Fangyuan.

Zhou Fangyuan got into Sun Jing's car and went home with her.

Needless to say, the battle between the two was over, and after the battle, the two hugged each other and slept together.

Zhou Fangyuan gently stroked Sun Jing's hair, "Sister Sun, how is the TV series?"

"The post-production has been completed, the submittal has been approved, and luckily, the submittal has passed without any cuts. ”

Sun Jing said with a smile.

"Oh, what about the hairstyle? Are you sure about the first round?"

"This is not yet, now we are talking about it, Shonan Satellite TV and Beijing Satellite TV are interested in introducing this TV series, and CCTV also sent people, but the price given by CCTV is a bit low, and I can't make up my mind about which one to promise now. ”

Sun Jing said with some distress.

Zhou Fangyuan grinned, "Sister Sun, in fact, this kind of thing doesn't need to be considered, although our company wants to make money, making money is not the most important thing now, it is mainly a matter of reputation and influence." In the final analysis, CCTV is still the real big brother, and if we can be on CCTV, our TV series will be better promoted. It doesn't matter if you make less money, isn't there still the right to show the second and third rounds, we can find a way in the second and third rounds, and it doesn't matter if we lose money, but it's only a few million, I can still afford to lose, as long as I can earn enough reputation and fame, it doesn't matter if the money is made. ”

Zhou Fangyuan said generously.

"I know, I know, I know that you are a big boss, I can't look down on this money, I am different from you, I am the general manager of the company, I want me to be responsible for the company's operation, but you can rest assured, you have said so, I know what to do, tomorrow I will talk to someone from CCTV, and strive to let them increase the price, they can't say how much is how much, and doing business always has to bargain!"

Sun Jing said with a smile.

"Okay, you are responsible for this matter to the end, I don't care, I can't take care of it, I just wait for your good news. ”

Zhou Fangyuan nodded and said.

"That's right, just wait for my good news, sleep, you're tired all day, I'm tired too. ”

"Well, good night. ”

"Good night!"
