"How much influence will you have on Shoreline Group's strategy after you leave office? Will you ever come back in the future? What else needs to be started, completed, or handed over? ”

At the scene of the annual meeting, near the end, Ye Hua, who was about to leave, was caught by a reporter from Jinghua News Agency and walked quickly and fluently with three consecutive questions.

Ye Hua nodded affirmatively, and replied as he walked: "Of course, there is no doubt about it, I am still the director of Coastline Group, and my current responsibility for the company is not to formulate the details of the operation plan, but to stick to the original vision, mission, values, and strategy of Coastline." As long as these original intentions are not forgotten, the coastline will not be turbulent. ”

"Actually, when the news of my departure broke, I noticed that someone was 'predicting' that I would probably come back one day. But it turns out that I rarely interfered in the company's operation and management throughout this year, and there is no problem with the company's development momentum, and the company's entire operation mechanism and team mechanism are running very smoothly. In this year, most of the work and business of the coastline are done by He Hao, and we will take a few days out of each month to have a good exchange, and I fully believe that He Hao and his team will do better and better. ”

"At present, I am still responsible for the operation of Life Ray, including the construction of the entire ecosystem of the group company, the construction of corporate culture and cross-regional trade collaboration, etc., and in the next year, Life Light also needs to be handed over to He Hao."

After answering the reporter's question, Ye Hua entered the car that had been parked beside him, and gradually extended into the car.

……

With the successful conclusion of the New Year's Eve event, ushering in January 1, 2023, the coastline company will have a three-day holiday directly, and at most less than three weeks of work will be the Spring Festival holiday.

The coastline company will never work overtime on the day of the holiday, and overtime is counted as a loss series.

Next Tuesday, January 3, Elon Musk flew from North America to Chung Town.

In the face of Ye Hua's invitation, he agreed without saying a word, and pushed off some of the original itinerary and rushed over to meet him.

At around ten o'clock in the morning, Elon Musk, who arrived in Yongzhen, came to the sea on the shore of Shuangyue Bay and met Ye Hua in a luxury business yacht.

The two sides looked at each other and asked for a few warm words, and Ye Hua said bluntly: "Mr. Musk, I want to know how many launch resources your company SpaceX has for the whole of this year?" ”

Elon Musk couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he heard it, this time Ye Hua invited himself to come over in his name, Musk believes that there should be more important business topics to discuss, most of which are related to the pilot of Huidong New District and the field of unmanned autonomous driving.

I didn't expect to talk about SpaceX's launch resources, and after a while, Elon Musk replied frankly: "This year's launch resources should have 14 times that can enter the launch program at any time, of course, if there are enough business orders, SpaceX can fully undertake 20 launch operations this year, but only two days have passed this year, according to the existing launch business, we have undertaken the launch business of ESA's Galileo positioning system, mainly 9 launch businesses, and this year will be launched three times for ESA, Put 6 satellites into orbit. ”

Ye Hua nodded, and then said with a smile: "Man, I am going to hit 86 wireless transmission relay satellites into space this year, this is not a small satellite, the average mass of each satellite is 1.75 tons, SpaceX's current launch resources are at most one arrow and two satellites, how about it, are you interested in taking this list." ”

"My God Mr.Ye you're going to launch 86 satellites this year?" Elon Musk looked at him with a shocked face when he heard this, where did he get so many satellites in a year? Well, it has nothing to do with me, and after a while, my heart jumped up, and I said without hesitation on the spot: "Of course I am interested, it is our honor for SpaceX to provide launch services for your company." ”

Ye Hua didn't care about polite words or anything, Musk is also a shrewd person, and after calculating SpaceX's launch resources this year, I am afraid that he will not be able to win all of the launch business of Coastline Company, and he can only eat half of it, and it is a situation of killing two birds with one stone.

SpaceX's current commercial launch cost is about $45 million, and Elon Musk's company's recyclable rocket launch is at least 70% cheaper than the traditional commercial launch cost, which is the main reason why SpaceX has a strong competitiveness in the launch business.

ESA itself will definitely be able to launch rocket business, but it is too expensive, it costs almost 100 million euros to launch once, where can there be so much money, and the requirements for the launch window are also very high.

Ye Hua disclosed a launch business worth $2.2 billion this time, a proper super fat order, and after thinking for a moment, Elon Musk couldn't help but say: "Mr.Ye, do you have to launch 86 within this year?" ”

Obviously, these words exposed the idea that "Iron Man" wants to eat alone, but SpaceX's launch resources are also limited, and the company's entire launch force can only fire 20 rounds a year.

Such frequent commercial launch missions have never been done before, and SpaceX will not be stupid enough to create so many "second kicks".

"That's right!" Ye Hua nodded affirmatively and added: "Since SpaceX can only eat half of the launch order, the remaining half will be handed over to my country's traditional launch to complete, of course, our country's launch resources still can't eat this half, and we have to let the Russians help." ”

As soon as he heard this, Elon Musk was very distressed, the $2.2 billion business order shrank by half in an instant, and he knew that he should have prepared more "second kicks", and he also heard from Ye Hua's tone that the satellite launch of the coastline would not wait for SpaceX to expand production capacity.

"I have one more request." Ye Hua said suddenly.

"You say."

"Delay ESA's launch operations, transfer the spare resources to my launch operations, and give priority to providing me with life ray launches." Ye Hua said.

"This ......" Elon Musk immediately explained with a difficult face: "Mr.Ye I'm afraid this won't work, SpaceX and ESA have signed an agreement, and we can't break the ......"

"I read your agreement, and it is said that the liquidated damages are as high as 450 million euros (500 million US dollars)." Ye Hua interrupted him, smiled and looked at Elon Musk, and then said calmly: "I will help you SpaceX pay this liquidated damages, and I will increase the cost of each launch to 70 million US dollars, simply put, I will contract your SpaceX launch resources this year, and give you a contract of 1.9 billion US dollars for this purpose, and 500 million US dollars in liquidated damages are also included." ”

Elon Musk froze and roared in his heart: If you have money, you can do whatever you want? Yes?

"Just ......"

Seeing his hesitant look, Ye Hua also secretly scolded in his heart that this product can really be loaded, and while opening a bottle of champagne, he said calmly: "Mr. Musk, this is the friendship price between you and me, what do you think?" For Tesla's sake, too, I'm cooperating. ”

The last sentence made Elon Musk's heart beat slightly, when "Silicon Valley Iron Man" debuted and became famous all over the world, Ye Hua was still in junior high school, in the end, he was a good person, and before the words completely fell, he heard the smell of threats in these words.
