After Gu Cheng came back to his senses, he said, "Mr. Xiwan, let me take the liberty of asking, does your country really have such great determination?" I have to remind you that I am talking about the US dollar, not the rupee. ”

Sivan: "I understand your English. ”

All right......

Gu Cheng felt that he was too conscientious in doing business, and he was still helping the Indians to consider that the financial expenditure for space exploration was not enough, and when he received the news, he deliberately looked at it and saw that India had approved a budget of 150 billion rupees for the manned space program.

The numbers are bluffing, but they are not worth much, and at the current dollar exchange rate, 150 billion rupees is about $2 billion.

The Indian authorities allocated a space budget of 2 billion US dollars to ISRO, which is equivalent to the same budget size announced by China in 2018, but the outside world has not believed it, thinking that most of China's space funding has been concealed, because the ratio of output to input is a bit abnormal in the eyes of outsiders, and the budget of North American NASA in the same period reached a terrifying 20 billion US dollars, and this year I am even more afraid, the congressional master directly allocated 90 billion US dollars to Jim Bridensteen.

But for India, whose total GDP has just broken 3 trillion US dollars, 2 billion US dollars in aerospace spending is also a big burden, if Gu Cheng's ship, if the expenditure soars to 15 billion US dollars, it will be second only to the US imperialists' spending in the aerospace field, and the proportion of India's total GDP has reached 0.56%, which perfectly surpasses the US imperialism, and it is also the proportion of 90 billion US dollars, ranking first in the world.

It is not an exaggeration to say that this is a heavy burden for the size of the Indian economy.

The cost of this space dream is really a bit high!

The meeting between the two sides lasted for more than 50 minutes, and as the group of Indians left, Zhou Huang, who was present, glanced at the closed door, and finally couldn't hold back his complaints: "Boss, are Indians stupid by the door, how can they send people like Xiwan to talk about business?" ”

Gu Cheng didn't care, sat on the side and slid the touch screen desktop, and said: "Ridicule is ridicule, if you really think that Indians are stupid, then you are stupid, Sivan is the person in charge of ISRO, let a person who is mainly engaged in technology come over and play the role of a businessman to talk to me about business, hehe......"

Hearing this, Zhou Huang couldn't help but be stunned for a while, "Uh, boss, what do you mean they are playing crookedly?" ”

Gu Cheng thought for a while and said: "I don't know, I don't have to know, this business is not indispensable to me, but one thing is certain, the Indians don't have much hope for regaining the connection with the 'Chandrayaan-3' at all, and at the same time, they do show their ambitions in space exploration, otherwise they wouldn't have come all the way to get close to me. ”

As soon as he said this, Xiao Zhou couldn't help but suddenly realize, he didn't think as much as Gu Cheng, touched his chin and said in surprise: "It's a little interesting, Ah San will actually play the opposite routine, and the tuition fees paid over the years are not without a little effect......

Obviously, what kind of negotiator is a skilled person like Siwan, but this is called unexpected, but it will make the opponent careless and throw some weights in advance, at least to find out in advance what the other party will have.

In fact, no specific issues were reached at this meeting, Gu Cheng absolutely believed that after Xi Wan went back, he would definitely explain what he said to their insiders, and then analyze it to pave the way for the next formal negotiations, if there are still negotiations next.

Gu Cheng is still very patient to play with the Indians, as long as they show their ambitions and desires for space exploration, everything is easy to say, talk slowly, talk about it without getting along, and make money by talking.

Zhou Huang glanced at the touchscreen desktop that Gu Cheng was sliding, and immediately asked, "Boss, what if the Indians really decide to go to Mars to toss?" ”

Hearing this, Gu Cheng said without thinking: "As long as the money is in place, I don't care where he goes, let alone Mars, even if the third brother wants to go to Thanos' hometown, I can send him over." ”

Thanos' hometown?

Zhou Huang hesitated for a moment before reacting, the boss should be referring to Titan, Titan is also called "Titan", isn't Thanos' hometown called Titan.

At this moment, Gu Cheng is staring at the data on the touchscreen desktop and calculating in his heart, the data presented on the desktop is the launch window of Mars, whether India wants to go to Mars, Gu Cheng doesn't know, but Tianqing Technology as Party B, if Party A has consultation, it has to ensure that it can give a plan as soon as possible, business.

Every 26 months, there is an excellent opportunity to reach Mars along the Hohmann transfer orbit, which is the best launch window for Mars.

There is no launch window for the whole of this year, but there will be for next year, 2022.

December 08, 2022 is the time node of Mars opposition, and the period from July 19 to October 14, 2022 is the launch window.

Gu Cheng turned off the smart touchscreen desktop and couldn't help but joke: "Elon Musk would be angry if he knew that the Indians wanted to intercept his Hu and go to Mars in advance." ”

This "Iron Man of Silicon Valley" not only wants to carry out a nuclear explosion on Mars, but his biggest dream is to be the first human to land on Mars in his lifetime.

The matter of the Indians has come to an end for the time being, and Gu Cheng still attaches great importance to this potential international cooperation, but he does not attach too much importance to it, and the success of this business will not directly affect the plans he has made.

On October 15th, the Celestial Blade spacecraft returned to Earth and set sail again with a second batch of supplies and 50 new members after nearly ten days of repairs.

This time, it was still taken off from the air base on Chongming Island, and it was during the day.

The number of observers was also quite large, but this time the CCTV news channel did not open a special live broadcast room for the whole report, but only carried out a brief news push report on the same day.

The more it goes on, it will gradually become commonplace, and even if the people of the commercial capital see it, there will be no too much psychological fluctuation.

However, such frequent launches show the ambition of Tianqing Technology on the moon, and the space powers of Europe and the United States are forced to accelerate the pace of their own space exploration, especially the Americans.

This time, it is Mona who pilots the Sky Blade spaceship, and so far only she can do it, and there are only two super pilots at present, and the other is Qiu Yue, who is currently in charge of the Sky Blade One and is conducting various aerospace flight training.

For the purchase of Sky Blade fighters, the military has ordered a total of seven, and the huge cost is that the military with deep pockets can only purchase one per year, including the strengthening of super pilots.

It is too expensive, and the military's expenditure is to be shared equally in all aspects, and building an air-space battle sequence is also a big burden for the military.

On October 22, the Tianjian spacecraft landed smoothly in the Mendeleev impact crater for the second time, and the materials carried over this time were mainly optical screen receiving devices, more than 800 tons, and the receiving area after unfolding was equivalent to more than 75 times that of the orbital optical screen devices relying on Tianzhou.

It can be simply spread out directly on the surface of the moon, and the surface of the moon without atmosphere will not reduce the efficiency of photon collection, and there is no need to worry about dust explosion and overturning.

This batch of materials is transported, the energy consumption of the base can not only be permanently self-sufficient, but also the light replenishment of the Tianjian spaceship, and there is no need to replace the light core in the name of the Tianzhou supply, the light screen device on the Tianzhou side will provide light energy support for the Tianjian fighter in the future, of course, this is the property of Tianqing Technology Group, and the state will repurchase it in the form of subsidies.
