Chinese name!

Bian-xuedao！

Some media reporters and scholars at the scene were the first to react, comparing this "mysterious David" with the legendary young entrepreneur who was recently listed in Forbes' "2008 Global 30 Under 30 Rich List" and was regarded by the media as an oriental business wizard.

Watching the guests from the audience exchange information about Bian Xuedao one after another, Musk stood calmly on the podium with a calm face.

Regarding the source of funds, Musk is open and has no pressure.

First, Bian Xuedao is neither involved in management nor touching SpaceX's cutting-edge technology, and is a very pure investor.

Second, Bian Xuedao's achievements and financial resources are undoubted, the inflow channels of funds are also regular, and the funds used by SpaceX are very clean.

Third, before SpaceX, Bian Xuedao also invested in Bigelow's "Space Hotel" project, which is enough to prove that Bian Xuedao is passionate about space projects, and not invested in SpaceX for some other purpose. If such a person has an intention on SpaceX's technology, well, you guys go talk to old Bigelow first, and then come to me.

Based on the above three points, whether it is NASA or American public opinion, if you want to make a fuss about Bian Xuedao's nationality identity, Musk will not pay attention to it, of course, before Bian Xuedao joins the American nationality, Musk will not give Bian Xuedao more shares.

And if someone chases SpaceX for accepting Bian Xuedao's investment, and when they can't bear it, Musk will definitely fight back.

Are you kidding?

My company is going bankrupt, and no one in the whole of America is willing to give me a penny.

When I was in the most difficult time, I was taught to send me money in the snow, saved the project, and brought the company back to life, at this time you jumped out and told me that I should not accept investment from a Chinese, is this justifiable? If you don't save me, and you don't allow me to accept help from others, I should sit back and die, go bankrupt and live on the streets?

The "Falcon 1" has only been successfully launched once, and there is still a long way to go, who can guarantee that SpaceX will not encounter another major setback? Who can guarantee that SpaceX will not once again encounter the dilemma that no one in the entire United States is willing to invest money? How can it do without such a "hardcore investor" as Bian Xuedao?

If SpaceX crosses the river and demolishes bridges, won't it block all funding channels outside the United States? At that time, those of you who can only make a fuss about nationality will be responsible for finding funds for SpaceX?

Furthermore......

Excluding utilitarian ideas, the friendship between the two does not allow Musk to cross the river and tear down the bridge.

What is sympathy?

Sympathy is to learn to say to Musk: "I think your thoughts are normal." I am in IT, and the data center of any Internet company will not be deployed on only one server, but will adopt a distributed network deployment with multiple points of disaster recovery, so as to avoid the risk of single point of failure (Sing1e-Point-of-Fai1ure), so as to make the entire network service more reliable. On the other hand, human beings have only one earth to live on, and it is very unreasonable to hang on with such a fate, from the perspective of Internet management thinking. ”

Sympathy is to learn the Tao and say to Musk: "Every great thing seems impossible at the beginning, if you have to go through hell, then move on!"

Sympathy is to learn the way and say to Musk: "I hope that in my lifetime I can drive your electric car on Mars." ”

What is Friendship?

The friendship is that before the fourth launch of the "Falcon 1" on September 30, when Musk himself was uncertain about the launch results, Bian Xuedao firmly said to Musk - "Stick to your direction, no matter how many times you fail, I will do my best to support you." ”

Musk looks mild-mannered, but in fact, his IQ and EQ are much higher than ordinary people, and he also has insight beyond ordinary people.

When Bian Xuedao said "do my best to support you", the tone, speed of speech, words, eyes, and expressions all fell in Musk's eyes, and all the characteristics showed that Bian Xuedao was telling the truth at that time.

What Bian Xuedao said was indeed true.

Musk and SpaceX aside, Hu Xi's sudden death touched Bian Xuedao, whose life is so fragile that he feels he should try to do more ambitious, ambitious, meaningful, and great things in his lifetime.

What is greatness?

Creating a smartphone that sells all over the world is called great?

That can only be called a success.

Developed a social software that is popular all over the world called great?

That can only be called a success.

Owning a super shopping website, owning a top luxury brand, owning a super football club, owning a company with the world's top market capitalization, and making your name known to the world, high-ranking and powerful, rich in the world, these are called great?

These can still only be called successes.

What makes a great cause?

In Bian Xuedao's eyes, only by promoting peace and progress can it be called great.

Peace is easy to understand, and progress refers specifically to scientific and technological progress, or like Musk, who took the lead in casting his vision into the vast space, perfectly integrating business, personal career and the continuation of human civilization, and aspiring to be an interstellar pioneer.

It's progress, and it's great.

A space maniac who really works step by step, even if he only has a little technological innovation and breakthrough in the field of aerospace, he and his company have also contributed to the long-term well-being of mankind.

That's why ......

Bian Xuedao sincerely wants to support Musk's space career.

And Musk also felt the sincerity of Bian Xuedao.

From Musk's point of view, is Bian Xuedao just a "hardcore investor"?

No, it's the same kind of coincidence, like-minded friends!

A very rich, capable and sympathetic friend like Bian Xuedao has not met a few Musk in the United States, how can he not maintain it?

Without people like Bian Xuedao, not only will the road to space be more tortuous, but the fun after reaching the other side of success will be much less and more lonely.

Musk stood on the podium and thought wildly, in stark contrast to the guests who were almost in a mess.

A few minutes later, the female reporter in the audience stood up and asked, "Mr. Musk, can you tell us when you met Mr. Bian Xuedao?"

Musk replied: "A few months ago at a drinking party. ”

The female reporter continued to ask: "Can you summarize the first impression that Mr. Bian Xuedao left on you?"

Musk showed a look of memory on his face, and said slowly: "Mr. Bian Xuedao's first impression to me is humorous, confident, talkative, enterprising and insightful beyond ordinary people, as well as very unique insights, oh...... By the way, there is also the instrument Xuanang. ”

After the female reporter sat down, a middle-aged male reporter stood up and asked: "Mr. Musk, does the renaming of SpaceX's 'Dragon' spacecraft to 'Long' spacecraft have anything to do with Mr. Bian Xuedao?"

Musk denied it without thinking about it, saying: "The name change of the spaceship is an internal decision of the company, and it has nothing to do with Mr. Bian Xuedao." ”

The male reporter continued to ask: "Then how do you explain that the icon of the 'Dragon' spaceship has changed from a black dragon to a red oriental dragon? This change has nothing to do with Mr. Bian Xuedao?"

Musk nodded and said: "Yes, this is also an internal decision of the company, and it has nothing to do with Mr. Bian Xuedao." ”

The male reporter was not reconciled and had to ask questions.

Musk was the first to speak: "Your question inspired me, if SpaceX has another funding crisis in the future, I will consider auctioning the spacecraft name and icon, which is a very good idea." But don't contact me about Viagra and Condoms, because the combination of these two types of companies and rockets can easily cause very special associations. ”

"Coax!"

The audience laughed at the same time.

……

……

The press conference is over.

Contrary to everyone's expectations, David-Bian stole the limelight from Musk and made the front page of N media.

In the report, "Mysterious David" becomes "Fantastic Bian".

The powerful reporters found a photo of Bian Xuedao shaking hands with Bigelow.

I found a photo of Bian Xuedao sitting in the observation seat of the rocket launch information command center.

Photos of the world's second-most expensive mansion (Hedong Garden) that Bian Xuedao bought for $656 million were found.

I found the photos of Zhiwei Weibo, Zhiwei Security Guard, Zhiwei Input Method and Zhiwei Video, and then marked it in large font in the center of the photo - "His company's software has 1 billion users!"

All right......

After reading the report, the American people realized how amazing the "magical Bian" was.

Compared with the Americans, after the news of the SpaceX press conference reached China, it was a completely different scene.

To be honest, the news of the successful launch of a rocket by a private company in the United States has made many Chinese people feel uncomfortable.

Outcome......

Immediately after that, news came that Chinese billionaire Bian Xuedao funded SpaceX to complete its fourth launch, and Bian Xuedao himself held as much as 5% of SpaceX.

And that's not all.

What the Chinese people like the most is the US media report on the name change and the replacement of the icon of the spacecraft of SpaceX.

The original name of the spaceship was "Dragon", but after Bian Xuedao invested, it was renamed the "Long" spaceship.

The original icon of the spaceship was a black dragon with two huge wings, but after learning to invest in it, the icon changed to a red oriental dragon.

Interestingly, in response to a question from an American reporter, the CEO of SpaceX said that these two changes have nothing to do with Bian Xuedao.

Holy, isn't that foolish?

Find any Chinese and let him read this report, he dares to bet three generations of his ancestors that the "Long" spaceship and the red oriental dragon icon are definitely Bian Xuedao's idea, and it is a change that Bian Xuedao has exchanged for investment.

Otherwise, even if someone in SpaceX likes the pattern of the Oriental Dragon, how can the "Long" spacecraft explain it?

Long - the dragon - the dragon of the East - this is basically a line.

Soon, the domestic Internet was boiling.

Everyone not only lamented that the road was broad, but also that the road was wild, and that the road was bold and thoughtful.

There are those who rejoice!

With those who have honor!

There are those who raise their eyebrows!

quietly invested in SpaceX's rocket project, Tesla's electric car project and the "space hotel" project, just by looking at the names of these projects, you can see that Bian Xuedao is a real person with a high heart.

Visibility to the next level!

In just 10 hours, Bian Xuedao's "number of friends" on Zhiwei's Weibo has risen from 12 million to 13 million, with an average increase of 100,000 "friends" per hour.

The more "friends" there are, the more troubles there are.

There is a charming and enchanting beautiful man who shouted on Weibo to give Bian Xuedao a monkey, and in less than half an hour, the beautiful man was sprayed by crazy female netizens to the point that he couldn't take care of himself, and directly logged out of Weibo.

In addition to the hustle and bustle of the Internet, the impact of Bian Xuedao's stake in a cutting-edge technology company in the United States is much more far-reaching.

……

……

Hangzhou, Yangyuan.

When the news came from the SpaceX press conference, Zhu Tianyang told the housekeeper that no one was allowed to come to the study to disturb him without his call.

After the old housekeeper went out, Zhu Tianyang took out a black diary from the safe and looked at it carefully.

That night, the light in the study on the third floor of the "Yangyuan" was turned on overnight.
