For the next period of time, Han Yi was very busy.

First, I went to Morocco, took a helicopter to the open sea, absorbed the energy and then transferred to Sagarata.

Gold contained in the Alcott Mountains, northeast of Norris, at up to 95 grams per tonne after standard exploration by the Collector Robot, exceeding the 65g/t reported by the official exploration team.

Not to mention, the harvesting robot also found that the underground rock strata of the vein are widely distributed, and in short, this is a big bonanza.

Now the original plan is about to change, and the 36% stake can no longer satisfy Han Yi's appetite.

After several negotiations, the Ministry of Overseas Investment of Tianyi provided a development fund of 20 million US dollars to the government of Sagarata free of charge, and donated another 10 million US dollars to the Ministry of Civil Affairs to obtain a controlling stake;

Subsequently, Tianyi signed a tripartite contract with the government and Tusanger, and Tianyi became the major shareholder of Haiyao Mining Co., Ltd. with 52% of the shares;

Tusanger became the second largest shareholder with a 43% stake;

Sagarata is in power - party 5%.

After the contract was signed, Han Yi flew to Seattle in the United States, and the Spaceflight rocket launch had entered the countdown state.

Tianyi carried a total of 7 nanosatellites into the sky this time, and spent a total of 4.8 million US dollars, including all expenses.

Of course, not counting the energy expended for this.

The owner of this company, "Fred Pullman", heard that Han Yi came to receive him personally.

Fred Pullman is a big fat man in his 50s, with cool white hair, a German-American, who followed his father across the ocean to the United States at a very young age.

Brother Lao Ku is very enthusiastic, so enthusiastic that it is a little unbearable, and he greatly admires Tianyi's technology in and out of his words.

Han Yi always felt that the other party had bad intentions, but he didn't ask for it, so he naturally laughed.

......

At 1:30 p.m. on October 26, the Satellite Launch Center in the southern suburbs of Seattle.

Today the weather is fine and cloudless.

In the general control room of the 200-square-meter launch center, various advanced instruments flashed with alternating red and green colors, and Spaceflight employees in overalls were busy nervously;

Fred Pullman, the old cool brother, chatted enthusiastically with the client, the head of a Canadian commercial company, and his trademark white hair looked so unique in the crowded hall.

As for Tianyi Technology, which is hitchhiking, naturally no one pays attention to them.

At 1:40, the countdown to the launch vehicle "Rose Chocolate" is about to begin;

The chatter in the control room was much quieter, and in the huge display, the people and machinery near the satellite station began to retreat.

At 1:45, standing in front of the monitor and watching, a very attractive middle-aged man smiled at Fred Pullman: "I feel a little nervous. ”

The old cool guy laughed and said, "Hey, it's not a big deal. It will fly into the sky like a hot air balloon, and it can't be stopped. ”

Han Yi, who was standing on the side, looked at the tall launch tower at the launch site, hugging the milky white huge carrier rocket, and said curiously: "The acceleration should be very slow when it first takes off, won't such a big rocket fall down?"

Old Cool Brother: "......"

Surreil, who was beside him, said, "Yes! There are many rockets that have fallen in history." ”

Old Cool Brother: "......"

Han Yi: "......"

Seeing that the Canadian man was about to go berserk, Han Yi hurriedly changed the topic, "What does it rely on to control the balance?"

"The rocket has 4 nozzles, and when the gyroscope of the rocket senses that the direction of the rocket deviates from the requirements, the computer calculates and uses the nozzles to adjust the direction of the rocket. ”

After a pause, Suriel followed again: "But this laser gyroscope is very bad, once the two light paths are locked to the dead frequency during takeoff, this gyroscope will no longer work, and then the rocket will ......"

"Okay, okay~" Seeing that the old cool brother's face was fighting with the African, Han Yi hurriedly interrupted Suriel, "I know." ”

"Ten minutes to prepare~"

"Five minutes to prepare~"

"One minute to prepare~"

All kinds of tracking and measuring equipment in the field area are turned on, and high-speed cameras, tape recorders and other recording equipment are started.

Everyone in the general control room stopped talking, and most of the Spaceflight employees sitting on the stools put down their work and looked at the big screen.

"Countdown starts: 10, 9, 8, 7, 6...... 1”

"Ignition!"

"Poof—"

Despite the distance of several kilometers, Han Yi could clearly feel a slight tremor.

On the big screen, a scorching flame erupts from the jet vent of the high-thrust rocket, which is sprayed on the flame shield on the launch frame.

"Radar is working ...... fine"

"Rose Chocolate is working properly......"

"Rate 1.2/s......

2.5/s......

3.0/s......

In a high-speed camera, the rocket flies in a parabolic shape after the initial acceleration;

At this time, there is no flame in sight, only a black and white image can be seen on the big screen, the rocket breaking through the air and approaching the atmosphere at a speed of kilometers per second;

After 100 seconds, "Rose Chocolate" enters the atmosphere;

"Booster separation~"

"First stage rocket separation~"

"Fairing Separation ......"

Every time it was reported, the faces of the people in the general control room were a little more relaxed.

There were no accidents, and 8 minutes later, Rose Chocolate entered low earth orbit according to the original target~

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

Hundreds of square meters of general control room resounded with warm applause, and some people were high-fived in celebration.

Although there is still work to be done, the rocket entered the predetermined orbit and the launch was almost certain.

The following is the detachment of Tianyi carrying satellites.

Han Yi was also a little nervous at this time.

No matter how advanced nanosatellites are, it is useless if they cannot be sent to the sky;

Even if you send it to the sky, if you can't transfer the photos back normally, it's still in vain.

"Nanosatellite 2 begins to break away from ......"

"Detachment Success~"

"Nanosatellite No. 3 begins to break away from ......"

"Detachment Success~"

"Nanosatellite No. 4 ......"

At this time, the separation images of the nanosatellites are no longer visible, and the ship can only be determined by remote sensing whether the ship has separated?

Fred Pullman glanced at Han Yi, walked over and put his arm around his shoulders, and said in not very pure Chinese: "Han, don't worry~"

Han Yi felt the power coming from Brother Ku's arm and released his clenched fist, "Thank you~ You guys are really great." ”

"Thank you~" Fred Pullman hugged him to the big screen, "My father's last words were to place his ashes on Mars, and I have been trying to help him fulfill this wish." ”

"I'm sure you'll be able to do it. ”

While the two were chatting, the seven nanosatellites successfully completed their separation mission.

Pullman laughed, "Look, I'm not wrong!"

Han Yi gave him a thumbs up.

And at this moment, Surier's voice sounded in his head, "The satellite picture has been transmitted successfully. ”

......

Now that the nanosatellite is in the sky, there is still a lot of work to be done.

Among them, the ground monitoring station is a very important project, and professionals should be invited to process the data, and then the original data will be edited and assigned, and finally the map data that can be used for navigation can be obtained;

Image screening is also an important task.

Although Tianyi has obtained a commercial satellite license, in consideration of national security, such as confidential buildings, oil mills, etc., it is necessary to carry out texture transplantation operations in these places through agreements with relevant national security departments.

Areas that cannot be directly represented are covered with similar surrounding scenery.

Of course, with industrial robots, it must be much easier than the average commercial satellite map company.

"Mr. Pullman, then I'll go first~" After signing the handover materials in the office at the rocket launch site, Han Yi offered his farewell.

"Don't worry, I have a really good request, I hope you can consider it?" After handing over the backup file to the staff, Brother Ku pulled Han Yi to the office.

The office is not big, only about 20 square meters, typical American decoration.

Pullman personally poured him a glass of water and said with a smile: "I have always admired your technology, especially the great contributions you have made in optics, which has amazed me;

But you also know that our two countries are currently facing each other, and I can't complain about the government, just as you are proud of your country, right?"

Han Yi nodded and said with a smile, "Yes." ”

"Politics aside, you Tianyi has strong technology, and we Spaceflight also have our own uniqueness, so I'm wondering, can we have some commercial cooperation?"

Han Yi held the teacup and asked, "Is Mr. Pullman referring to space exploration?"

"nonono~" Pullman waved his hand repeatedly, "We still have a long way to go in terms of spaceflight, and it's too early to talk about space exploration." ”

Without waiting for Han Yi to ask, Pullman sat down.

The westerly sun shone in through the blinds and fell on the black suits on the backs of the two men, forming black and yellow strips of light.

Pullman also held a teacup, mixing Chinese and English: "In addition to space, I am also very interested in the sea;

You know, the sea is rich in treasures, and both in terms of quality and quantity, the ground is far from being able to match. ”

Han Yi smiled and said, "But you also know that it is very difficult to mine in the sea. ”

Pullman laughed happily, "That's why I'm looking for you to work with me."

I...... Looking at the video of the robot dancing, you guys are doing a great job in the field of AI, which is much worse than Google.

Smart robots can do a lot of things, especially in the area of undersea development, which is incomparable to humans.

How, would you like to?"

"Well...... this" To be honest, Han Yi was really excited.

The mining robot is okay to dig and mine, but how can he do these things like oil and natural gas?

Therefore, cooperation is still necessary, and the construction of sea bases, oil pipelines, and logistics support are all huge projects.

After thinking about it for a while, Han Yi said, "In this case, you let me think about it! Prepare me a detailed plan, and if it is feasible, I will give you an answer on the next week." ”

"OK~" Pullman was very happy.

Pullman then drove Han Yi to Seattle Airport.
