Chapter Seventy-Two: Notice of the Meeting of the Moon Grand Prix

When everyone took action, Tang Chao knew that his previous estimate was correct.

What you want, you can make by domestic private aerospace companies.

Even if there is no technology, there is no threshold for manufacturing, as long as you get the technical authorization of the leader, you can produce it immediately.

There are even some things that do not need to find a special aerospace company, they are not unique to rockets, they are all some general devices, and some conventional mechanical processing factories and electronic device companies can do it.

These basic parts do not require their technical license, and can be purchased directly.

And some ordinary companies can't do it, and if they don't have technology, they need their technology authorization.

Starting from the lowest technology in the whole system, the technology is released layer by layer, and then exchanged for parts, funds and later production support.

However, Tang Chao is not a domineering person, if he is not willing to sign this kind of contract, he will go directly to the normal contract, anyway, it is a loss or a profit, it all depends on the company itself that receives the order.

According to Zhang Qin's statistics, 70% of companies that want technology can be used, which is quite good.

It's hard to say what the future holds for these companies, but their bosses and managers are definitely visionary, and if nothing else, they should be doing well in the future.

These low-tech little things can sign contracts very quickly, and those high-tech big guys are not easy to handle, such as fuel tanks, engines, arrow-borne infinite transmission equipment, etc.

In fact, it is easier to say that the fuel tank is still relatively easy to say, and the other party has also signed a technical contract to reduce the weight of the tank, but their production capacity is ...... Limited.

This is also a unified problem of small domestic aerospace companies, which cannot be supplied by themselves, and it will affect their own business even more if they are built for others.

This time, they took over the launch of a small satellite, so the contract with Tang Chao conflicted, and they held several internal meetings for this matter.

Some people said that this technology is just like that, whether they can reduce weight or not, they still take orders to deliver small satellites.

And now the domestic small satellite launch market is so big, Mericon has issued a document, the spacecraft using Merrican technology can not be launched Tianxia's rocket, and the corresponding orders cannot be received after spending money to upgrade the technology, so there is no need to rush to upgrade the technology.

Others said that this technique is very useful, and it may not be obvious now, but when building large rockets in the future, it is very important to reduce the weight of the rocket body.

And you can't always stay in the house, you have to have a dream to open an aerospace company, and you have to think about it when you go on the international stage and compete with companies from other countries.

In the future, the domestic technology will be more advanced, and we will use domestic technology to manufacture satellites for customers, and then launch them for customers, and we don't have to use Merrican's technology.

The technology over there is expensive, there are so many restrictions, and you even have to use technology to control you, if there is cheaper and better use, the ghost will use the technology over there.

The two sides were at a stalemate, and in the end, the big boss personally made the decision, he paid most of the liquidated damages to the customer, postponed the launch time, and then the company's people worked overtime to build the arrow body that Tang Chao needed.

And this has to be hidden from a customer, because they reported that the production specifications were not up to standard, and the rocket launch was delayed for safety and excellence.

If you let the customer know that they actually gave it to someone else, it's over.

Although liquidated damages were given, this "disgusting behavior" was very offensive.

But there is no way, those who do aerospace know how important technology is, and they must get Tang Chao's new technology.

Zhang Qin followed up for several days before the list was discussed.

Then there were the companies that made the engines, and in the end they chose to let the Blue Sword build the "mainsail" engine of the rocket, and let Kyushu build several variable thrust engines used in the probe.

Compared with the more comprehensive development of the Blue Sword, the company Kyushu is a bit full-time in the study of rocket engines, so in addition to the technology of variable thrust engines, Tang Chao also sold them a lot of other types of engine technology.

As for the Blue Sword, Tang Chao also went there in person when he signed the contract, after all, he had heard of the name of the Blue Sword, and it was definitely in the first echelon of the domestic private aerospace field.

It just so happened that the other party was not far away, just on the edge of Taihu Lake in the west, and only more than 100 kilometers away from Jiangkou City.

This is the manufacturing base of the Blue Sword, and after arriving, Tang Chao directly met the other party's CTO who is stationed here, that is, Wu Lin, the chief technology officer.

Wu Lin learned that Tang Chao was the boss of the navigator, and he really felt Tang Chao's youth and the strength of the navigator.

"Boss Zhang is really young and promising, I was a student at your age, and you are now the boss of an aerospace company."

Wu Lin poured tea for Tang Chao and said: "Your company's national amateur rocket competition is really beautiful, it has completely mobilized the people's enthusiasm for aerospace, and it is beneficial to domestic aerospace companies. ”

"Mr. Wu is too modest, our navigator is at most a newcomer in the industry, your blue sword is the leader of domestic private aerospace, and Mr. Wu has also worked at the Europa Space Agency, I admire you a lot." Tang Chao said with a smile as he turned the teacup in his hand.

"What Boss Zhang said, we are eating in the private aerospace field, how can there be any boss, it is still far from the international advanced level, but the technology of your navigator is quite competitive, we can't build a liquid engine with 140 tons of thrust, and I also heard that Boss Zhang is self-taught?"

"Self-taught is not counted, that is, I love these things, and I have studied for a longer time......"

After praising each other, one old and one young began to talk about technical issues.

Tang Chao definitely didn't have this ability before, but he has been working very hard recently, and he has learned a lot of things under the influence of a large number of five-star scientists and engineers in Kanxing, and he has a bit of dry goods in his mind.

Chatting and chatting, the two chatted about the recent domestic aerospace environment, Wu Lin sighed that the opening of the navigator, these exchanged technologies are very useful to them, and they still save a lot of resources after removing the current efforts.

The main thing is that it saves a lot of time.

Hearing this, Tang Chao smiled mysteriously: "Is the light us?" Has your company recently gotten some good technology from elsewhere? ”

Hearing Tang Chao say this, Wu Lin was stunned for a moment, then looked at the other party's expression, and suddenly thought of something.

"No, don't you...... Wait, is it ...... that 140 tons of liquid hair and 300 tons of solid thrust are the It's not right, the time is not right......"

Wu Lin shook his head and said again: "You also got the aerospace technology from the science and technology and science and industry?" ”

How to say this, the reason why Tang Chao was able to guess this was only because his card was intermittently paid, and when the company was not profitable, what could get money was the contract signed in that transaction.

As a leader in domestic private aerospace, Blue Sword will definitely be indispensable if it begins to lay out a grand strategy for scientific and technological upgrading.

Now that Wu Lin asked this, he could only smile and say, "Almost." ”

After getting Tang Chao's reply, Wu Lin thought of a lot of things.

"Obediently, this is going to be a big deal above, it seems that the new aerospace law is really not promulgated in vain, is this going to take a big step on the diffusion path of the aerospace industry on the other side?"

"I don't know." Tang Chao took a sip of tea and said.

"Don't know, Brother Zhang, it seems that you are very well-informed, and you can come up with 140 tons of liquid hair and 300 tons of solid push, you won't be a pilot before, right?"

Wu Lin picked up the teapot and gave it to Tang Chao, and then said: "Tell my brother, what is here, and we can cooperate with the policy above." ”

In less than an hour, two technical maniacs, one old and one young, have begun to call themselves old brothers.

In fact, Tang Chao doesn't know much about this doorway, after all, on the surface, his collaborator is only revival investment, and he only sells technology, and he won't tell him if there is any big plan above.

However, as a secret collaborator, he will have more thorough information, and if he knows a little bit of information from other places, he can guess everything.

"I don't know much, let's exchange opinions."

Tang Chao took another sip of tea, and then opened his mouth and grinned, "Isn't the manned lunar landing project already launched by the national team now, and both of us have obtained some technical authorizations, I think other companies must also have them. ”

"The blockade on the other side is getting tighter and tighter, and the blockade is not a bad thing for us if we suddenly increase the technical level of private companies, so that private companies are not constrained and can build 100% domestic satellites and rockets that meet the needs of customers."

"If you think about it, the blockade has actually been a two-way street, not allowing us to launch satellites containing Merrican technology and parts, but the actual launch frequency of the other side is not so fast, and many customers need to queue up."

"If we can also use 100% domestic technology to manufacture satellites with corresponding requirements, no need to queue, and the price is cheap, what do you say those customers who have been queuing will do?"

The two talked a lot about this issue.

Tang Chao's information is expensive and novel, and Wu Lin, as an old hanger, is in his fifties today, plus he has worked in the Europa Space Agency for more than ten years, and what he has learned is not something that Tang Chao, a "former layman", can imagine.

The combination of ideas and information between the two of them felt that they had benefited a lot.

In the end, after the contract was signed, the two became year-old friends, and the title of the elder brother was decided.

When Tang Chao left, Wu Lin sent him directly to the car, looking at the back of the vehicle leaving, he felt that there was going to be a god in the domestic private aerospace field.

In a few years, the entire international aerospace field will know Tang Chao's name.

"Navigator, navigator, it seems that they set a very high goal at the beginning, we can't lag behind, don't go out of the country when the time comes, then those of us who have been engaged in aerospace all our lives have no place to put our faces."

Tang Chao was also very satisfied with this meeting, he didn't know that he had made a rocket engineer over half a hundred years old ignite again, but knowing it, he would be happier.

He was happy to think that his lunar exploration plan was going so smoothly.

If there are no accidents, he will win the first place in this moon competition.

As a result, Merrican's side was a whole moth.

After going back, Zhang Qin was reporting to him about the wireless transmission equipment on the arrow.

This thing is an extremely advanced project in China.

Wireless transmission has become commonplace in our lives, but for rockets, it is still a novelty.

Extreme high and low temperatures, strong impact force when the rocket body is separated, and extremely complex electromagnetic environment all bring great challenges to the "cable-free" measurement system inside the rocket.

At the same time, the design of the rocket is also trapped by these cables that turn a thousand times.

A rocket has hundreds or thousands of sensors, all connected by cables.

In the design process, the long cable not only increases the weight of the rocket, but also often affects the layout of the internal instruments and equipment of the rocket body, which causes certain difficulties to the rocket design and final assembly.

Because of these problems, the domestic team wanted to remove the cables inside the rocket and engage in "cable-free", which has been working for several years and developing various new technologies.

Although the "cable-free" of rockets has not yet been fully realized, the use of cables has been significantly reduced.

This thing is only used by the rockets of the national team, and the civilian equipment meets the standard of not carrying arrows, and there is not even the equipment to produce these equipment.

Therefore, Tang Chao used the channel of revival investment to buy relevant production equipment, and then directly went ruthlessly and spent hundreds of millions of dollars to buy a manufacturing plant.

Chen Jing is spending money very happily now, and knowing Tang Chao's wishes, she directly led the team to negotiate.

Then Tang Chao used Kanxing's related technology to immediately start producing equipment, and asked Kanxing to continue to upgrade the technology, and strive to upgrade to "100% cable-free" as soon as possible.

In addition to the various practical uses, he also thought of some bells and whistles.

For example, building Transformers.

That's absolutely fun.

One of the stumbling blocks to the deformation technology is the cable, and if the wireless transmission technology in the extreme environment is realized, then there is something to play.

While chatting about the renovation of the manufacturing plant and imagining the beautiful scene of building Transformers in the future, he received a new notice from the management committee of the Moon Grand Prix.

[Your detailed moon landing plan has been approved, congratulations on your official qualification, please go to Merrican on June 20 to participate in the official team meeting of the Moon Grand Prix.] 】

Tang Chao's first reaction when he saw the news was: I have started to build rockets and probes, and you just told me that you have obtained the official qualification for the competition, and your reaction should be too slow.

But in the next second, he came back to his senses, and this thing had to go to Merrican for a meeting!

it!

Now that Merrican has 2 million confirmed cases and more than 100,000 dead, let him go to a meeting at this time......

This is damn.

This committee is planning to use this method to brush off some of the participating teams, right?!

But he thought about it, based on the news he had watched during this time, and according to Merrican's urine, people might really think that this was just a normal meeting notice.

As for the epidemic......

What's that?
