Chapter 698: The so-called sincerity
on the lawn.
A few foreign friends in plain clothes with blond hair and blue eyes and extraordinary bearing gathered together, with binoculars around their necks, and were whispering something.
“…… A very good rocket, West,"
Bob exhaled softly, with a worried look on his face: "They're chasing too fast, with this vehicle in hand, those deadly things, they will launch into the sky one after another." ”
A sufficiently powerful carrier rocket is an important cornerstone of the modern aerospace industry, and it can be said that it has a direct bearing on the strength of a country's space science and technology strength.
Another tall, thin, mean-looking gray-haired man said disdainfully, "So what? We already had rockets of this class in the sixties of the last century, and they only have them now, and there is nothing to boast about. ”
Several companions looked at him with a somewhat complicated look, and the Saturn V rocket in the United States was of course well known, but it was just ...... It was a work at the height of the Cold War, regardless of the cost, and a rocket was worth as much as an aircraft carrier, and it was impossible to use it as a conventional delivery vehicle.
The Long March 9 rocket is obviously much more reasonable in cost because of the large number of new materials and new technologies, and the reliability is higher, the payload is larger, and part of the rocket body can be recycled and reused. Mass production, launch, and the cost will be further reduced, so the two are not the same thing at all.
The slightly chubby West groaned: "Maybe after we go back, we should consider a bigger and more advanced rocket program, this field has always been the strength of the United States in the past few decades, we can't just lose to the damn Huaxia." ”
Bob raised his eyebrows slightly: "You mean the kind of big guy that resembles the 'Sea Dragon'?" Is it just that the stingy legislators on Capitol Hill are willing to allocate funds for this plan? ”
The Sea Dragon rocket, which is not unfamiliar to the world, is much more than the Saturn V, and in the Cold War era of the last century, there were many magnificent projects that stayed on paper. One of them is the Sea Dragon Super Rocket, which was proposed in 1963 and has a total launch mass of up to 18,000 tons, which is equivalent to a heavy cruiser.
The unprecedented Jumbo rocket is 150 meters tall and can carry 450 tons of payload into low-Earth orbit or 165 tons into lunar orbit, nearly four times the capacity of the Saturn V rocket. Due to its size, the launch pad on land simply could not carry it, so it needed to be towed to the sea for launch.
In other words, this rocket can launch the entire Alfa ISS into orbit with a single launch, because the total mass of the rocket is more than 400 tons.
After the advent of this rocket program, after strict technical demonstration and financial calculations, it also attracted high-level attention, but in the end it was not implemented, mainly because it was not used at that time, and the funds required were too high, even the wealthy United States could not afford it.
"Space in the 21st century should be ours,"
The gray-haired man said proudly: "No matter how difficult things are, someone has to do them, let's write a report after we go back, with our identity, there is still some influence in speaking." ”
Several foreign friends looked at each other for a moment and nodded with a heavy heart.
"Speaking of which, the fact that this large rocket with excellent performance was able to come out ahead of schedule was due to the fact that the Kun and Dium Group, not the many new materials they provided, how could it be possible to make it come out ahead of schedule?" West said again.
"That's right, many of those good things can't even be made in our domestic laboratories, I really don't know how that Qin Feng came up with it. What's worse is that they refuse to have any kind of technical exchange with us, and they don't even agree to sell some finished products, which is really damned! ”
Bob was a little indignant when he thought about it. When have they ever been rejected like this before?
Although there is a large gap between the level of science and technology and foreign countries, there is still a lot of practical small technology, special formulas and the like, and the result is that those foreign friends in the name of international exchanges and cooperation are taken away almost free of charge, but for their own technical achievements, this group of guys is closed mouths, not a word has been revealed.
At that time, the Chinese people were generally relatively simple, and they always felt that people came all the way and were embarrassed not to tell others something, so they suffered a lot of losses and paid more than N tuition, and then gradually matured.
Therefore, the technical blockade of Kun and Dium Group against foreign friends especially makes these arrogant guys feel uncomfortable, annoyed, but helpless, Qin Feng doesn't care about any coercion and temptation from them.
At this moment, Qin Feng on the cruise ship also received a lot of requests to make appointments to visit, needless to say, the other party is a big man with a head and a face. Most of them were representatives of European and American pharmaceutical giants and world-renowned consortia, and they all asked to meet with Qin Feng separately to discuss some cooperation issues.
Although Qin Feng did not refuse this, because there were too many representatives who asked for talks, he only agreed to more than a dozen representatives of enterprises or consortia who were strong enough, and each of them set a time limit.
During the talks, these representatives with extraordinary backgrounds unsurprisingly put forward various requests for cooperation, from the franchise agency of new materials, new energy, and drugs to research and development, technology transfer and market development, and even the equity purchase and sale of Kun and R2 Group. And a series of lucrative conditions were offered for this, at least it seems.
It's just that in Heng Jingtian's opinion, the sincerity of these guys is really ...... Even in this kind of completely demanding situation, they are reluctant to give too many benefits, on the contrary, they believe that Kun and Rium Group should give them more preferential treatment and convenience, after all, they are large conglomerates from Europe and the United States.
Qin Feng rejected most of the requests, especially in terms of equity and technology, and the rest of the cooperation terms, he said that he needed time to think about them, and did not reply immediately.
To be honest, Qin Feng did not have any expectations at all for these ill-intentioned European and American companies and consortiums, and the two sides naturally had an antagonistic relationship. Maybe in the near future, these guys will be swept into the dustbin of history one by one.
Moreover, the current Kun and Dium Group is no longer a simple national enterprise, the state also has shares in it, coupled with his own special status, cooperation with any foreign company is not a trivial matter, and it can only be considered after obtaining the approval of the high-level. Of course, according to his heart, he didn't want to have anything to do with these foreign friends.
Ten days later, two new drugs were launched in the biological gene laboratory of the Kun and Dium Group, targeting two stubborn diseases of asthma and myocardial infarction, and they were still sold under the real-name system, with low prices and remarkable efficacy.
When the news came out, it immediately caused a strong reaction in the outside world.
