The day before, people were still cheering for "Dart X".

The next day, attention began to be paid to Earth's future space program.

The reason for this was that Merrican suddenly made a big move, directly lifted the previous space and space programs, and began to implement a new space program.

And it has also begun to strongly support private spaceflight.

Obviously, the senior management of Merrican is very dissatisfied with the phenomenon of "desperately reaching out for money, but procrastinating work" in the old domestic aerospace system.

While these old companies have large lobbying groups that can influence national policy in related fields, the lobbying groups of new private space companies are also growing.

Coupled with the fact that they are more in line with Merrican's interests at this stage, the balance of victory is naturally tilted in favor of the emerging private space companies.

After all, the period of the space race is not as good as usual, and the old system has eaten the dividends of the last space race, but times have changed, and Merrican is not as brave as it was decades ago, and there is not so much money to squander.

The old system still wants to continue to eat dividends according to the last plan, which obviously does not work, so the relatively "good quality and low price" and full of momentum of the new private space company naturally become the first choice.

It's just that no one would have imagined that the bosses of the six private space companies, who had become upstarts in the space industry because of the New Sky Competition, would talk and joke with their enemies, and even reveal the core content of the Merrican core meeting.

This is not the first time Tang Chao has heard the details of a similar meeting, after all, it is not the first time he has cooperated with these people, since signing a secret cooperation contract, in addition to the secret exchanges between parts and some trivial technologies, the most is the exchange of information and intelligence.

But it was the first time Tang Chao had heard such an important internal intelligence of the meeting.

However, according to several people, before they attended the meeting, the Congress had already held a meeting, and that meeting may have also involved some information about the Navigator Company and Tianxia.

With that information, they couldn't help it.

Tang Chao didn't care about this, after all, he didn't plan to go to Merrican for the time being, Tianxia's aerospace industry was relatively independent, it was not easy for him to go out, and it was not easy for Merriken's hand to come in.

Unlike Europa, Merrican can go up and down at will, and even give an order, except for a little core technology that has control, most of the other technologies and equipment, they can't cooperate with others.

And Tianxia has a supermarket with 1.4 billion people, plus the size is getting bigger and bigger, which is enough for him to develop into the real space age.

When it comes to the space age, with its own large bases on the moon and in space, Navigator will definitely be able to dominate the game.

You don't even need to do big construction, when he goes to the moon, he can move the building modules directly from Kanxing, and build a fully functional lunar outpost for you in a month.

That's what makes a lot of noise.

"So the new moon landing program is really aimed at me?"

Tang Chao looked at the information that came and asked.

"Yes, we are still involved here, so we want to talk about this connection as well." Regarding Tang Chao's question, Ma Yilong explained.

"Because of the new space program, we have become the focus of attention, and we may have to stop the secret parts production cooperation for a while."

"After a while, we will see if the attention of the senior management to us will be reduced, and if it is reduced, we can continue to cooperate in the production of parts."

"I have a feeling that our parts cooperation may end here," said an elderly boss, "and I experienced the last space race, and there was only more and more attention to the contractors involved, not more and more laxity." ”

"Unless it's the supplier who doesn't fit into the rhythm of the space race and falls out of the vendor ranks."

This person is none other than the owner of the mountain company that developed and manufactured the "Dream Chaser" mini space shuttle.

Originally, after the appearance of the "Dart X" of the Navigator Company, it was his company that was hit the hardest.

After all, the other companies in the six major private space companies are building launch vehicles and space stations, and although some also have space tourism projects, none of them are pillar projects.

Only he and True Galaxy's pillar project is to engage in private space tourism.

To be precise, True Galaxy is engaged in suborbital tourism, and the consumer price of a flight is about 250,000 US dollars, and even if it drops, it can be pressed to 100,000 US dollars.

Its user base does not coincide with the user base of "Dart X", and there is still a certain market.

His "Dream Chaser" is miserable, it is really towards the goal of orbital tourism, but his core competitiveness is rubbish compared to the navigator.

Originally, the "Dream Chaser" lost the fight with the "Manned Dragon", but the Space Administration gave him some freight contracts, hung him, and did not let him go bankrupt.

But after his efforts, he got the manned qualification and could enter the commercial manned market, who knows how he met such a monster.

But who knows, there are still peaks and loops here, and commercial manning is not to think about it, but he got an order from the military.

The Space Force is going to convert his Dream Chaser into a space fighter!

This, this, this, how did I, a private space company, become an arms dealer?

Everyone at Merrican knows that arms dealers make money!

Originally, he was going to become an enemy with Tang Chao, and even he had to report this chat room anonymously, after all, his career was over, his life was over, and he didn't mind pulling everyone into the water.

As a result, he got a huge bonus instead.

The source of all this is because the navigator's "Dart X" also has a label, that is, it belongs to Tianxia.

So if you want to talk about the previous collaboration, that's really fragrant!

Others think the same way.

If it weren't for the Navigator who came up with the orbital shuttle, they wouldn't have taken off in such a short period of time.

The boss of the mountain company thought about it, and still told Tang Chao the news that Merrican was about to develop the militarized use of the mini space shuttle.

His purpose is to let Tang Chao disclose this kind of information to the Tianxia official, so that Tianxia can also develop equivalent functions, or even more powerful functions.

Only then will Merrican's side feel the pressure and rely more on their private space companies.

Only in this way can they get on the big ship of the country and develop their power by leaps and bounds.

Hearing the boss of the Mountain Company say this, the bosses of the other companies were not surprised, because they also said it immediately after.

It's all routine.

This is how the military and the arms groups often cooperate in this way.

First exaggerated the threat of Tianxia, then set up an enemy, and finally deceived Congress of appropriations.

No one prefers to wage war more than these two groups, because it is only during the war that one group can quickly gain power, and the other group can quickly gain money.

It's just that it hasn't been very successful lately.

Of course, they didn't know that the commander of a certain space force was no longer satisfied with making up nonsense, and wanted to really cultivate a real enemy by leaking top-secret technology.

Then go on your own and get rid of this enemy little by little, little by little, little by little.

Or even deliberately incomplete purging, so as to gain more power.

Tang Chao was not surprised that the six big bosses were vying to tell what they knew about the Space Force, and that they were in a posture of letting Tianxia defeat Merrican, because this was indeed the operation of Merrican Capital Group.

Speaking of which, it's not that they like Tianxia much, it's just that there are interests here, and they are huge interests.

"Thank you very much for the information, this information is very important and useful for my company."

Tang Chao didn't break it, and said with a smile: "It's a pleasure to cooperate with you, and I hope our friendship can last forever." ”

"The cooperation is pleasant, and the friendship lasts forever."

Several people also said a word, and immediately went offline.

The last words are also wrong, only when the cooperation is happy, the friendship can last forever.

If it weren't for Tang Chao's existence that could make them a lot of money, it would be impossible for the two sides to talk more at all.

Tang Chao also exited the chat room, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window of the living room, looked at the sun rising on the eastern coastline, and smiled easily.

Throughout, they didn't talk about the orbital shuttle, or about buying the technology.

Perhaps, in their opinion, it is not an epoch-making technological breakthrough at all, after all, 20 years ago, there was an "X-33" that was almost tested on the side of Merrican.

After 20 years, they are more confident that they can hold their "ally" in the right position.

In general, the more successful people are, the more they feel that they can control others.

"It's a pity, you don't know what my 'ally' is~"
