Chapter 92: I'm Disappointed in Them
"It's so unexpected, I didn't expect a few large companies to lose to a small company that suddenly appeared."
"That's right, who would have thought that a small company would be able to beat a big company and win this competition."
"I feel that they should have been premeditated, they should have started to study these technologies very early, and they kept them very secret, and the outside world didn't know, otherwise it would be impossible for several major companies to lose."
"Yes, yes, I think so too......"
The guy in the President's office watched the people from NASA and the Grand Prix singing and harmonizing, and he knew very well why they were doing it.
It's nothing more than trying to get yourself out and prove that it's not your own doing.
Indeed, they all thought that the first place this time would come from several major private aerospace companies, which was also their original idea.
Not only shows his openness and generosity, but also eats the meat in his mouth, which is a good thing to kill multiple birds with one stone.
But this kind of accident happened.
And the reason for the accident, according to their theory, is the responsibility of those large companies, and it has nothing to do with them.
First, as a private space company, you must have the ability to gather business intelligence, right? I don't even know the strength of the opponent, how to rush?
Second, the key is that the strength of your companies is not good, if you are very good and build the moon landing equipment in a month, how can there be any business with this game team?
We are just a platform, so we have a competition, and we are not responsible for intelligence.
We think you're the best company in the world, and you're not, who is to blame?
"Alright, I know what you're trying to do, but that's not the point right now, Mr. President's current order is how to prevent the other side from getting our moon landing contract."
"And we can't directly disqualify them, so you need to think about it from the side."
A spokesman for the office said.
Hearing this, both sides stopped beeping, and began to think about how to justifiably "kill" each other.
Soon, the representative of the Moon Grand Prix Committee discussed with the people behind him, and said: "Otherwise, we will say that they have received help from the Tianxia government, and the result of this competition will not count, and the prize money and qualification will be cancelled directly." β
"Renting the launch site and renting the satellite network are of course allowed, this is a ready-made infrastructure, but their design and manufacturing speed this time is extraordinary, we can say that they have received technical support from the Tianxia Space Agency, so they can be disqualified......
Before he could finish speaking, someone on the NASA side couldn't help it.
A balding engineer turned on the microphone in front of him and pointed at the camera, as if pointing at the nose of the official spokesperson for the competition, "Your conjectures are not true. β
"The Cannes team is using their own unique technology, and they don't mean that they say 'Canstar Technology', they really built their rockets and probes based on the equipment in the Cannes game, and then completed this competition."
"We all know that no national space agency or private space company would do such a thing before."
"We can say that the technicians of Canstar Navigator have dreams, of course, you can also think that they are stupid and think that they have something wrong with their brains, but you can't say that their technology comes from a third-party agency."
This statement made the speaker of the contest very faceless, and said forcefully: "I am maintaining the international prestige of Merriken." β
"Shet, you're only going to make Merrican less and less international!" The bald engineer said directly.
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, a colleague from the space agency hurriedly persuaded him: "Think about the funds, we need the funds." β
ββ¦β¦β
In the face of this situation, the office spokesman also knew that this plan was not very reliable.
Although they are shameless, the mask can be put on one by one, this accusation is too blatant, the next one.
Of course, if there is really no good way, he will consider this plan.
In fact, there are not many technical personnel on the side of the competition committee, they are mainly in charge of the competition process, publicity and prize distribution, and the professional and technical personnel are borrowed from NASA.
If the idea doesn't work, then the space agency will have to start with the technical aspect.
On the NASA side, the director personally gave the order for these engineers to come up with ideas.
He is also smart and does not let these engineers and scientists think in the direction of conspiracy, but from the technical side.
For the sake of funding, and without thinking about conspiracy, these scientists endured.
After discussing it for a while, they really came up with some solutions, but they didn't want to say it, so they just told the director of the space agency and asked him to say it.
"Please tell Mr. President, our space agency has paid attention, as Tianxia's small team, it's not that we don't want to use them, it's just that their technology is really not good."
"Our lunar landing program is very demanding, whether it is to transport cargo or manned landing on the moon, we need super rockets that can transport dozens of tons of equipment to the moon at one time, and their rocket capacity is too small to meet the requirements of our mission."
This is their method, a way to hurt a thousand enemies and hundreds of casualties themselves.
That is, directly blocking the other party and its own small space company.
After all, except for the rockets being developed by a few large space companies that can meet this requirement, those small companies do not have this capability.
But fortunately, although these small companies can't get official missions to the moon, some contracts in the purely commercial field can still be obtained, and their competitiveness is good and they can survive.
So this method is still mainly aimed at Star Navigator.
The meeting was a success, and the king was very satisfied, and when they were preparing for the press conference, the plan had been known to the world by the media.
Three official: "WTF?!" β
Understand Wang even tweeted directly: [You bad media! γ
On the other hand, these news are colliding with the Star Navigator company's celebration press conference.
After the research of the research institute, it was compared with the lunar soil obtained before Tianxia, and it was confirmed that the lunar soil collected by Kanyue No. 1 was the lunar soil.
After weighing, it totaled 428.9 grams, which was more than the 100-gram weight stipulated for the competition.
It also marked that the team of the Canxing moon landing department strictly followed the rules of the competition, successfully completed the task, and won the first place in the Moon Grand Prix.
This live broadcast has not stopped, and after a long time, there is a time difference around the world, and some viewers can't stay up and sleep, but others just wake up.
Anyway, the number of viewers in the live broadcast room has not been interrupted, and at least five million people have watched.
The celebration press conference was also live-streamed, and there were many reporters who came this time, almost all the media around the world, and it was at this time that they got a message from Merrican.
They're excited, it's like sharks smell blood, they're going to make big news!
Soon, they noticed a man hurrying up to the stage and whispering something in the ears of the captain and the female manager, and then the two of them frowned.
It makes them even more excited.
There was even a reporter from Merriken who asked loudly without waiting for a question: "Mr. Tang, Ms. Chen, Merriken Space Agency said that your technology is not good and you can't get a moon landing contract, do you have anything to say?" β
Tang Chao and Chen Jing were stunned when they heard this, and then Chen Jing, out of professional habits, planned to say some clichΓ©s first, and then make a decision after a detailed understanding of the situation, but was stopped by Tang Chao.
Tang Chao raised his left hand to Chen Jing to stop her from speaking, while he leaned forward slightly, his mouth close to the microphone, and said with a calm expression: "I want to say that I am very disappointed in the Merrican Space Agency. β
