The Falcon 2 launch vehicle is cheap and has excellent performance, which makes it very competitive, and SpaceX's satellites are among the best in the world. Therefore, SpaceX has entered into partnerships with several countries this time.

Some tycoons also choose SpaceX's rockets and satellites for business needs.

Within two days, SpaceX had received orders for 16 rockets and 10 satellites, and the delivery dates were scheduled for half a year later.

Robert Bigelow was at SpaceX's headquarters for a while looking at the inflatable capsule division, and Lawrence Paul was also presenting. At present, the total number of people in the inflatable capsule department is about 500, and since the manufacture of graphene is still in the research stage, it is necessary to use other fiber materials with good strength to conduct experiments first.

Robert Bigelow, accompanied by Henry and Lawrence Paul, then went on a field trip to the inflatable capsule department. As soon as everyone entered the laboratory, they saw a large space capsule that looked like a hot air balloon.

Robert Bigelow's eyes lit up as he scrutinized the capsule.

The capsule is bulging, and it seems that if you squeeze it, the capsule will retract. However, the researchers next to them told them that the general pressure would not deform the capsule, and that it would require at least 10 adults to do so. Moreover, the fiber material is very tough, and if the pressure is too high, the capsule will bounce back. In addition, the defense of the capsule is no less than that of ordinary metal, and even if you cut it with a knife, it is difficult to cut a hole.

"Mr. Robert Bigelow, you can try it for yourself!" said Henry, smiling at Robert Bigelow.

"Okay, then I'll give it a try!" Robert Bigelow nodded.

At this time, an employee handed over a sharp fruit knife with a length of about 10 cm.

Robert Bigelow took the knife and walked slowly to the capsule. He brandished his knife, gesturing, and brewing so that he could use all his strength to cut through the capsule.

Henry watched his movements with a calm smile on his face.

Not to mention that he is just a thin middle-aged and elderly person, even if he is a young athlete with strong body and great strength, it is impossible for him to cut through the space capsule.

Has anyone seen someone else cut an iron plate with a knife? No, right...... The inflatable capsule department is staffed by special electronic instruments to make cuts.

Laugh at!!!

Robert Bigelow's hand was forced, and the fruit knife slashed the capsule, only to see that it left only a faint white scratch on it. Robert Bigelow was so surprised that he couldn't help but touch the scratches with his hand, and it felt still very tough and thick.

Henry walked over to the office chair and sat down, let the secretary make three cups of coffee, then turned to look at Robert Bigelow, and smiled softly, "Mr. Bigelow, do you want to try again!"

"Oh, no, my wrist hurts now," said Robert Bigelow excitedly, "It's no worse than metal to make a capsule out of this material!"

Henry shook his head, "It's nothing. "It won't be long before we're able to use more powerful fiber materials that are more resistant than the best aerospace metals out there!" However, our capsule can be stacked, small in size, small in weight, and naturally our launch cost is small. A rocket can carry at least three inflatable capsules when it is launched, while traditional metal capsules can only carry one into space, that is, they have to launch at least three times to match the number of inflatable capsules we have. Two more rocket launches would cost one or two hundred million dollars more. Undoubtedly, the competitive advantage of our inflatable capsule is huge!" Henry is going to use a lot of graphene as a raw material, and then add some other materials to make high-strength fibers. Naturally, the capsule built in this way will not be cheap.

Hearing Henry's words, Robert Bigelow was taken aback, "Mr. Williams, you mean ...... You've developed stronger fibers?"

"Not yet, but soon. Henry smiled, "Hehe, otherwise, how dare I boast about Haikou and say that I can build an inflatable space station in two years!"

Robert Bigelow's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked, "What ......about that?" This laboratory for the study of fibrous materials also belongs to the inflatable capsule department?"

"No!" Henry shook his head, "it's owned by WilliamsX Labs, but don't worry, the two can work closely together, and the inflatable capsule department can get the best price!"

When Robert Bigelow heard this, a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes, but after thinking about it, he could give the company a lot of help by cooperating with Henry, not only the cost of materials was cheap, but also the cost of launching into space! Where can I find such a good partner?

Robert Bigelow immediately said to Henry, "Mr. Williams, I've thought about it, I've decided to invest in the inflatable capsule division!"

"Okay, very welcome!" Henry smiled, "So, the inflatable capsule department will change its name, let's do business, and our goals will be more ambitious, today we will make space capsules, tomorrow we will be able to build hotels, and the day after tomorrow we can build cities......! Robert Bigelow, do you have any good suggestions? I mean, give our new company a louder name!"

When Robert Bigelow heard this, he pondered for a moment, "Mr. Williams, what do you think of the 'Space House'?"

"Space House?" Henry muttered, thinking for a moment, then nodded, "Well, it's not bad, it's kind of interesting! Well, that's the name of the new company - Space House!!"

"Oh, by the way, the inflatable capsule division used to belong to SpaceX, so what do you think about the House of Space still hanging under SpaceX? Robert Bigelow?" asked Henry.

"Of course, no problem!" said Robert Bigelow, nodding heartily.

At this time, Henry stretched out his right hand and shook hands with Robert Bigelow, "Robert Bigelow, welcome to become a member of SpaceX's strategic partners!"

"It is my pleasure, Mr. Williams!" said Robert Bigelow, shaking hands.

Robert Bigelow really felt honored, what a behemoth SpaceX is, he can be a partner in it, and hold a stake in the "space house", he will definitely be prosperous in the future! When he thinks of what Henry just said, "Today we will build a space capsule, tomorrow we will be able to build a hotel, and the day after tomorrow we can build a city!"

Henry Williams was a man who had been working miracles, and Robert Bigelow was convinced that under Henry Williams' leadership, the "House of Space" would develop into a giant company in the field of space!!

It didn't take long for the two to sign an agreement, and then a press conference was held to announce the matter.

At this moment, the outside world was stunned by the space tourism plan described by Henry at the SpaceX interstellar event. It's just that, just as the rich people thought at the time, everyone also thought that the inflatable space station was too unreliable, and almost no one was optimistic about this plan.

didn't think about it, but there was a stupid hat who approved the plan, and also invested and established a company together.

In the newspaper, Robert Bigelow was ridiculed one after another, and netizens also left messages.

"Who is Robert Bigelow?

"Idiots among the rich!"

"With this IQ, how did he become a billionaire?"

"You all scold Robert Bigelow, why don't you scold Henry Williams?"

"Henry Williams has money, he just throws some money to play, does he care about it? But can Robert Bigelow? It is said that he invested $200 million in the early stage, and he will continue to inject capital in the future, and with Robert Bigelow's worth of more than two billion dollars, this is almost a big gamble! However, this is destined to be a losing gamble!"

“……”

Robert Bigelow casually threw the newspaper on the desk in front of him, shook his head, and a contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Who is stupid? You will find out later!" After the contract was signed yesterday, Henry took him to Super Materials, where he saw what graphene is and what super materials are!! although the redox method has not yet succeeded in making graphene, but good progress has been made, and a lot of graphene has been made through mechanical exfoliation. Under the detailed explanation of the researchers, Robert Bigelow's mouth could not be closed in shock......
