Advanced Players in Arc

"Haha, Mr. Musk, I heard it. You are complimenting me. It makes me feel embarrassed." Dong Chen picked up the wine glass and said with a smile.

"If you want to make me drink, just say so. If you didn't have a Western face and your fluent Chinese accent, I would have thought you were back at the wine table in China."

Seeing Dong Chen pick up the wine glass, Musk also picked up the wine glass, clinked it with Dong Chen and said with a smile, "Haha, Mr. Dong Chen really has the oriental tradition. He is too humble. What I said is not an exaggeration at all."

"Now everyone knows the importance of the Chinese market. Mr. Dong Chen, the richest man in the world, is also a native speaker of Chinese, and the employees of his group also speak Chinese. If you want to cooperate with your company or the Chinese market, you need to speak Chinese. You can get a lot of favorability bonuses.”

"So learning Chinese is very popular in the world now, and your company's smart Rubik's Cube helmet is really easy to use and convenient for learning, allowing us "foreigners" to learn quickly."

I have to say that having a preconceived impression, especially a good impression, is very beneficial to the relationship between two people.

Dong Chen had a good impression of Musk. He felt that he was one of the few people on earth who was persistent in the starry sky and kept moving forward. Although they had lost touch with each other after the last meeting, they also said that they wanted to cooperate. Things didn't progress, but it didn't stop Dong Chen from feeling that he was almost the same type of person as himself.

Stink phase... Only people with similar interests can become friends and have a common language.

Musk also mentioned in the chat that the reason for not being able to cooperate was not that he didn't want to, but because he really didn't have time.

As a well-known private aerospace group in the United States, they were not only invited to participate in the United States' reverse engineering of the space flight technology of the original island Atlantis civilization, they were also responsible for the transportation of many new International Space Station assembly modules. These things have made They are operating at full capacity, and there is no time to carry out any regular business activities.

In addition to these businesses subcontracted by the government, they are only doing some commercial orders that they have received before.

After completing private commercial orders, they will no longer accept any regular commercial orders, and must devote 100% of their manufacturing resources to government subcontracting business.

However, I can no longer take on tasks, but the relationship with previous customers still needs to be maintained, so Musk will participate in the event invitations sent by some customers to maintain the relationship and ensure that after they complete the government subcontracting business, these customers will still will choose them.

Otherwise, if they complete the government subcontracting business, there will be no new business, and normal business channels will not receive business, then they will be in trouble.

And because he has sufficient business relationships, at least he doesn't have to worry about the aerospace company's business. This gives him more time to maintain customer relationships, and also gives him more time to think about his own business. future and planning your own Mars dream.

"...Sigh, despite the fact that we have undertaken many government launch missions now, I still worry about the future of the aerospace company every day." Musk took a sip of wine and sighed.

"What's going on? The earth's aerospace industry is developing rapidly now. It's a good time for aerospace companies to show their talents. Your Musk Aerospace's financial statements must be very beautiful. Why are you worried about the future?" Dong Chen asked curiously road.

"The financial statements are very beautiful, and every workshop is busy, but we are just repeatedly producing launch vehicles, and then launching space station cabins and modules as quickly as possible. We have not innovated technology for a long time, my Mars The colonization plan may also be delayed." Musk said gloomily.

"In terms of technological innovation..." Dong Chen asked doubtfully, "Aren't you cooperating with the US government?"

"Now the whole world knows that you are jointly researching the interstellar navigation technology of Atlantis civilization, and the technology will soon surpass the aerospace technology of our Arc Light Group. I don't believe that you have no technological innovation."

Hearing Dong Chen ask this, Musk's face became even more ugly. "Technology has improved, but to say it surpasses your aerospace technology is really optimistic. I personally feel that the gap from before has not changed."

"The interstellar navigation technology of the Atlantean civilization is indeed very advanced, but it is not very useful in the current earth's space era. After all, the gap can be understood literally."

"Their "interstellar navigation technology" focuses on ultra-long-distance flights between star systems. Breaking through the planet's atmosphere and flying within the local star system are no longer the main focus, but the difficulty of our "aerospace technology" is precisely that The technology of breaking through the atmosphere is no longer studied by others.”

"And many of their core technologies are different from the technology tree we selected. How can the technologies on both sides be connected?"

"The most important and basic aircraft energy and engine technology have not been solved, and research is useless. Otherwise, how could they still use rockets."

Then he looked at Dong Chen and continued, "And they are too proud. Before you appeared, they did not pay attention to the aerospace technology of other countries on the earth."

"While everyone was circling around the earth, they had already set their sights on deep space. They even sold me these technologies that they considered backward and asked me to deliver goods for them and maintain their dilapidated space station. .”

"And after your rapid development and emergence..."

Through Musk's tipsy words, Dong Chen also learned some of the current situation in the United States.

These things are not considered confidential, but under normal circumstances they really cannot be spread, because these things are very scattered and will not be recorded. That is to say, the staff will only chat in private and then let Musk know.

Due to their arrogance, they feel that even if they don’t pay much attention to rocket technology, they will not be surpassed in a few years. Even if they sell old technology to private aerospace groups, it will still be world-class, so they can study them with peace of mind. deep space exploration technology.

This has resulted in their rocket technology being outdated, their space shuttles having been retired, and no new launch vehicle to take over. Moreover, their deep space voyage technology is immature and cannot support the mask. The International Space Station has also been broken into pieces, leaving them with a There is no technology that can compete with the aerospace technology of the Arc Light Group. We can only watch the Arc Light Group slowly occupy the earth's orbit and occupy the moon.

Only when they got here did they panic, and began to work on these technologies urgently again.

At this time, the sudden appearance of the initial island gave them hope, so they quickly embraced the technology of the Atlantis civilization, thinking that with the technology of the Atlantis civilization, everything would be possible.

But they don’t look at what era the earth is in now. Their technology is not very good in the first place. It is too early to study these things. There is no core power system and energy system. What they study is useless, and they will not be used after they are researched.

And due to the differences in culture and technology, without the accumulation of time in years, the progress of reverse engineering will not make any big progress at all.

If it were replaced by the Arc Light Group, it might still be about the same, because the Arc Light Group has almost reached this stage, and breaking through the planet's atmosphere is no longer a problem.

With the technology they are showing now, even if it is a bit difficult to wander around in this star system, it is not impossible, so they are about to face technical obstacles in leaving the star system.

Even though there is still a generation gap with the Atlantis civilization, it is definitely much smaller than the generation gap here in the United States. After all, it is still difficult for the United States to create an earth.

It's a pity that Arc Light Group doesn't look down on these technologies, or Dong Chen doesn't look down on these technologies, because he is better.
