It is said that after the successful first launch of the Yinglong heavy launch vehicle.

The entire Chinese aerospace field, and even the country's scientific and technological circles, are boiling.

From surprise to skepticism, to shock, and finally surprise.

No one could have imagined that a fledgling private aerospace enterprise would be able to hand over an answer sheet comparable to that of the national team.

And in response to this matter, major domestic mainstream media have reported and published.

Among them, the front page of RM Daily published that the history of commercial space flight can be traced back to the initial stage of human spaceflight. In the 21st century, companies such as SpaceX and Blue Origin in the United States have begun to emerge and appear in important space activities. A large number of private aerospace companies have also been born in China, showing a good trend of thousands of sails competing and promising prospects.

These new aerospace companies in the private sector have added a lot of vitality to China's aerospace industry, and it is foreseeable that these private aerospace companies will inevitably develop into an important force in China's aerospace activities.

At 13:00 on January 15, 2023, Yanjing time, the Yinglong heavy-lift launch vehicle of Muyu Aerospace Technology Co., Ltd. was successfully launched at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center.

It is understood that the launch of the Yinglong heavy-duty rocket carried XXX in cooperation with the Aerospace Science and Industry Space Engineering Development Co., Ltd.

……

The CCTV news broadcast on the evening of the next day also reported the news of the successful launch of the Yinglong heavy-duty carrier rocket at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center, and said that with the successful launch mission, Muyu Aerospace has created two records in the history of China's private commercial aerospace - the largest payload, and the first successful completion of rocket recovery......

……

The major mainstream scientific and technological journals in China also spoke highly of the Chongmingniao No. 1 new liquid rocket engine and Yinglong heavy-duty launch vehicle of Muyu Aerospace Technology Co., Ltd.

Most professional institutions in the industry believe that the complete success of this launch mission shows that Muyu Aerospace has mastered the core software and hardware core technologies such as launch vehicle overall and system integration, attitude and orbit control power, electrical integration, navigation guidance and control, test launch, final assembly and final testing and core stand-alone, and has the R&D and launch service capabilities of the whole process and all elements of the launch vehicle system engineering, realizing the basic closed loop of the business model, and can officially start commercial operation.

……

In addition, in the following week, Hua Kejing also accepted exclusive interviews with many media, including CCTV.

In addition to further introducing Muyu Aerospace's next rocket test launch plan, Huake also emphasized the company's future development plan.

One of them is to carry out in-depth cooperation with the Huaxia Aerospace National Team, and jointly develop a new type of rocket engine production line, which can fully rely on the advantages of national resources while also giving full play to the due vitality of private aerospace.

To the surprise of the world, Muyu Aerospace also announced a blockbuster news: the new rocket engine production line undertakes orders for Chongmingniao series rocket engines all over the world, with a price of 20 million Huaxia yuan per unit.

As a result, the whole world was shocked and questioned countless times.

First, before the launch of the Yinglong rocket, Huaxia's performance in the field of rocket engines has not been outstanding;

Second, up to now, the Chongmingniao series of rockets has only been successfully test-launched once, and the safety and reliability need to be further observed and demonstrated;

Third, as a rocket engine with such a powerful comprehensive strength, why is the cost so low?

Take a look at the price of those rocket engines that can be compared to the new liquid rocket engine of the Shigemeitori 1.

RS-25 engines - about 300 million Chinese dollars per unit;

F-1 engines - about 200 million Huaxia dollars per unit;

RD-180 engines - about 150 million Huaxia dollars per unit;

Even the Raptor engine of the private aerospace leader Space X is far less cost-effective than the Chongmingniao 1.

Therefore, if the new liquid rocket of Chongmingniao 1 does not show flammability and explosion in the next launch test, the quotation of 20 million Huaxia yuan/unit can definitely wash the entire aerospace field.

In particular, those second- and third-tier national teams with relatively backward aerospace strength will inevitably have a strong interest in this.

Of course, in this way, there are more doubts and worries, after all, the core of any rocket is the rocket engine.

Rocket engine technology is not only the core of carrier rocket technology, but also the core of the entire space technology, and its development level directly determines the overall aerospace level of a space power.

Muyu Aerospace sells related engines on such a large scale, isn't it worried about losing the core competitiveness that has been rarely established?

For this question, Hua Kejing answered from two aspects.

He began by citing the case of Lockheed Martin, the world's largest defense contractor.

The company controls 40% of the world's defense market.

1/3 of the Pentagon's annual procurement budget is used to pay for its orders, and it covers almost all the production and launch operations of military satellites in the United States, and at the same time supplies all submarine-launched ballistic missiles to the US Navy, high-altitude area air defense systems in theaters, communications satellite systems, F-16, F-22 and F-35 fighters, U-2 reconnaissance aircraft, shore-based anti-submarine aircraft P-3 series, C-130 series military transport aircraft, etc.

In the same way, after Muyu Aerospace and the Huaxia Aerospace National Team work together, they can and should also become the world's largest aerospace business contractor.

On the other hand, Hua Kejing deeply believes that if human beings want to fully enter the space age, the first thing to do is to severely suppress the launch cost of rockets or other spacecraft.

Because only if the launch cost is low enough, such as the construction of space bases, the development of space mineral resources, larger-scale interstellar exploration, or interstellar tourism projects for the general public, can be realized.

Finally, Hua Kejing also said that the movement of Dapeng is not the lightness of a feather. The speed of Qiji is not the power of one foot.

In the context of the country's efforts to build a space power, Muyu Aerospace will compete with the world's top commercial aerospace companies on the international stage through highly reliable, low-cost, and fast-response launch vehicles, and grow together!

As for the lack of core competitive advantages, it is even less worrying.

Because since its establishment, Muyu Aerospace is destined to be an aerospace science and technology enterprise that has the courage to take risks, iterate quickly, and dare to subvert itself.

I believe that it will not be long before more excellent engines will be successfully developed and manufactured!
