Chapter 793: I Think I Can
"To be honest, I want to go to Mars too......"
I don't know why, Dong Chen felt extremely miserable, so he said this.
Of course, he felt miserable, but Musk didn't.
"Chairman, don't think about it this time, it's not too late for you to go to Mars after the technology is mature, you don't need to fight for the title of "the first person to set foot on Mars". ”
Listening to Musk say this familiar persuasion, Dong Chen could only be speechless and crying, "Sun Hao said the same thing before, and many people have said similar things......
But halfway through speaking, Dong Chen remembered, "Hey, no, didn't you say such things when you were the domineering president?" Said he was going to go to Mars in a few years or something. ”
"That's right, but I won't go until the technology is mature, if it weren't for some problems, our Mars unmanned landing experiment would have started a long time ago, but it hasn't been carried out yet, and even the company has sold it to you."
Musk said as a matter of course, "But now it's okay, I'm no longer the chairman or president of the company, I can go to the end of the world, and I can be a warrior who pioneers Mars." ”
"So chairman, you just let me go."
“…………”
Dong Chen instantly felt that he had received a 10,000-point critical attack.
He even began to wonder if Musk had made this idea a long time ago, otherwise how could he have agreed so happily to be someone else's subordinate and sell the company as a technician.
But he also understands that he wants to follow the scientific research team to land on Mars, don't think about it, who made him the chairman of the Arc Group.
As for Musk, he glanced up and down at Musk and said, "You are the boss of the aerospace company, and you also have your own aerospace dream, you must have experienced some aerospace-related training, maybe you are familiar with it, even if you don't need to train, pass." ”
"Many people know that the selection criteria for astronauts in our arc aerospace are already very low, especially the physical fitness, but the selection of majors is still quite strict, can you?"
"Absolutely."
Hearing Dong Chen's question, Musk immediately quit.
"I am not an ordinary president or chairman, I am also the company's chief technical officer, and I have participated in many technical problems like you."
"Although I'm not as good as you, don't underestimate me, I've learned quite a lot of things on my own, and my major is not bad at all."
Seeing Musk like a cat with his tail stepped on, Dong Chen also remembered some information about this guy, as one of the contemporary "legends", he also has his own legendary experience.
The bachelor, who holds a double bachelor's degree in physics and economics from Penn, was admitted to the prestigious graduate school of Saffin University at the age of 24, but decided to take a leave of absence after only one day.
He researched electric cars, launched vehicles, and EEG signal interactions, and possessed the grandiose industrial heroism of a madman. Loves to talk about things that make humanity interstellar, also wants to retire on Mars, always has a lot of crazy dreams, and will stop at nothing to achieve them.
His expertise spans rocket science, engineering, physics, artificial intelligence, solar motive energy, and more, and he is mostly self-taught.
So from these materials, it seems that his professionalism is absolutely no problem, and it will be of great use to Mars, and he will definitely not move bricks.
And because of his special experience, such as being the president of a large company, he is very familiar with the overall arrangement of personnel and materials, the risk assessment of tasks, etc., this is a very suitable candidate for team leader.
Thinking of this, the thoughts in Dong Chen's mind became clear.
"Do you really want to go to Mars now?" Dong Chen asked Musk one last time.
"Although we are sure of the safety of the spacecraft, the safety of the shuttle transport aircraft, and the safety of the land equipment, we cannot guarantee the safety of this mission."
"Because we haven't even figured out the earth under our feet, then the distant Mars is even less understood."
"Although you are not the president or chairman of the group now, you should also understand that only by living can you have an infinite future."
"I'm sure, Mr. Chairman," Musk looked at him with a firm gaze and a firm tone, "this is my dream, and I'm also very calm, and I'm confident that I can accomplish such a task." ”
"That's good."
Since it was decided, Dong Chen turned around and left.
"Come with me, it's time for us to move to the astronaut training center."
"Astronaut training center?" Musk hurriedly followed, "What are you going to do?" ”..
"Go do some tests," Dong Chen turned his head to Musk, who came up, and said, "If you pass the test, then by the way, meet the team members who are about to carry out the mission with you." ”
"Testing? Players? ”
Musk didn't understand what it was at first, because he didn't expect Dong Chen to agree after only thinking about it for a few seconds, which was simply too resolute.
However, after following Dong Chen two steps, he understood, and asked excitedly, "So, do you agree?" ”
"It's useless if I agree, you still have to pass the test," Dong Chen said as he walked, and then looked at him with a smile, "What?" Happy that he didn't even call the chairman anymore? ”
"Haha, dear Dong, you are too much of a friend," Musk said happily, "In your Huaguo words, what you say doesn't count, important things have to be kept in your heart." ”
"In my heart, you are definitely my supreme chairman, but that is at work, and you haven't started working yet, I think we are still friends."
"Of course, if I can really go to Mars this time, you will be my lifelong dream mentor."
Okay, in order to go to Mars, this is really going to nothing.
After a while, Dong Chen's name has changed several times, and he really uses whatever title he uses when he does something.
However, Dong Chen doesn't plan to care about it, let's do the test first, otherwise maybe Musk can use any other strategy.
When Dong Chen and Musk went to the astronaut training center, Zhu Heshu, who had been promoted to the director of the arc astronaut training center, was surprised, he didn't expect Dong Chen to come here, and he also took Musk, the technology madman who yearned for the starry sky.
"Mr. Chairman, welcome to you." Zhu Heshu came out to greet him.
Dong Chen shook hands with Zhu Heshu and introduced to Musk, "Musk, this is Ms. Zhu Heshu, the director of our arc astronaut training center, and also the chief astronaut of our arc spaceflight. ”
Then he introduced Zhu Heshu, "This is Mr. Musk, I don't think I need to introduce it again, right?" ”
"Yes, chairman," Zhu Heshu shook hands with Musk with a smile, "Mr. Musk is a world-famous business tycoon, a technology maniac, and a person with a different attachment to the starry sky, of course I know him." ”
"Thank you for the compliment, Ms. Zhu," Musk also shook hands with Zhu.
"In fact, the chairman doesn't introduce me, I know you, the chief pilot of the first aerospace aircraft of Arc Space, a beautiful lady who has made history, the flower of the starry sky of Arc Group."
"I am quite clear about your deeds, I didn't expect Ms. Zhu Heshu to be the director of the astronaut training center at such a young age."
