I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World
Chapter 502: Acquisition of aerospace company
The flourishing development of private space has a background, that is, the failure of the early space shuttle and the end of the space race caused by the end of the Cold War. This storm caused a large number of important projects started in the United States in the 1980s, and the investment of the space giants was squandered. The enthusiasm was greatly affected.
After the disarmament in the 1990s and the great integration of the aerospace industry, the monopoly of the giants such as Pratt & Whitney, Boeing and Loma was not comparable to the 1960s and more sensitive to risks. Therefore, the commercial launch was half-hearted and only favored the defense business. It is expensive to say that the rd-180 engine was originally invested by the Americans, because the manufacturers were not willing to spend money to build a new factory, and the result was entirely dependent on Russian production.
This is why Russia can harden its neck when facing sanctions. The threat of ending the cooperation, the drama of the International Space Station "breaking grain" has been staged more than once, and it has been tried and tested. Until the rise of private space companies in recent years, this threat of innocence has gradually become less effective.
Facts have proved that the industry dominated by the bureaucracy has no future, and this is reflected in the aerospace industry.
Take the famous private space company spaex as an example.
Its launch price has been so low that it is almost absurd, only a fraction of the market price, no country or business in the world can compete with it. These emerging companies have inherited a lot of research results from the space giants of the old era, but the debt has not been inherited at all.
Speaking of spae-owner Aaron Musk, is also a legendary figure, but his popularity in China is far less than Jobs. However, if you mention a few earth-shattering things he has done, many people should still hear about it. For example, he co-founded the paypal online payment mechanism, which is the most successful online payment method to date. After being acquired by ebay, he earned the first gold in his life.
Another example is the hottest car in the last year, no doubt, Tesla's boss is also him!
Not only that, he invited three well-known entrepreneurs to co-found spae-x. It also made a far-reaching strategic goal of "taking space tourism as a starting point, opening up the era of privatization of space resources, and finally achieving Mars settlement."
And it turns out that in the aerospace field they are indeed at the forefront of the world.
The Falcon rocket was born. Its push ratio (fuel to push weight ratio) reached a terrible 1:150! Replacing Russia's best score of 1:120, it became the most advanced rocket in the world. What is even more enviable and hateful is that such a rocket can not only be launched at a low cost, but can be reused! The first stage rocket can hover at a height of 200 meters and then fall vertically without damage.
At last. Its engine is still printed in 3d.
That is to say, so many advantages in one, its market competitiveness is unparalleled. At the same time, its relationship with NASA and the US Air Force can be described by iron brothers. The order that floated like a snow made Aaron Musk earn a lot of money.
However, it is precisely because of its competitive horror that many small private space companies in the United States are in a state of semi-death.
The most profitable defense orders were almost monopolized by spae-x, and the commercial satellite's launch profits were compressed to the extreme for various reasons. It is precisely because of this, Jiang Chen was able to buy two space companies for restructuring with a floor price of 5 billion US dollars to enrich the talent team of the Aerospace Science and Technology Center, which is wholly-owned by Star Ring Trading.
Kervin Burrow, former director and technical director of Mississippi Aerospace Technologies, USA, holds a Ph.D. from the University of Aberdeen Aerospace and was involved in the early development of the Falcon rocket. After resigning, he returned to his hometown to establish Mississippi Aerospace Technology Corporation. But it turns out that not all technicians can become merchants like Gates and Jobs. After the failure of investment, his company owed $500 million in debt and is on the verge of bankruptcy.
Fortunately, Jiang Chen extended his "helping hand" in time, and he was able to keep his life's efforts not to sell.
Of course, capital is ruthless. The first thing that Jiang Chen became the chairman of the board was to sell the majority of his company's assets at a low price, and at the same time gave his company employees twice the original salary and a work visa to the new country.
"Do you know what you did? The equipment is worth at least $200 million! And you sold it to my old club at a 50% discount. Oh, God... If I am Mr. Musk, I might be I woke up when I was dreaming.” I just left the airport in Coro Island. Kervin stunned Jiang Chen and complained with a mouthful of spit.
"Mr. Musk does not laugh, I am blunt, spae-x can not look at your equipment. It is very clever. I can't look at it." Jiang Chen said with a relaxed tone, and opened for him. The door.
"What do you mean?" Kervin, who was straightforward, frowned immediately.
"Literature, believe me, wait until the destination, you will be consistent with my point of view." Jiang Chen sat in the position of the co-pilot.
Sitting in the back seat of the car, Kervin swept the expressionless girl who drove. Then I looked at Jiang Chen and asked nervously.
"Does she have a driver's license?"
It was said that Aisha’s mouth was pumping. Jiang Chen is a glimpse, laughing.
"Reassure, my worth should be more afraid of death than you are."
"Well, I believe in you... but I have to remind you that even if you have more money, some things can't be bought by banknotes. I have 6,671 pages of technical drawings on hand, but I can be very responsible. I tell you that it is absolutely impossible to find a factory that turns my drawings into real objects in this broken place."
"Yes? Then throw away your drawings." Jiang Chen said indifferently.
Kervin groaned and frowned slightly.
"Sorry, what did you say?"
"Nothing, I am still saying that I can understand that you are full of anxiety-like feelings about the new workplace, but I hope that you remain calm, because we will immediately see some shocking things... well, the front is At the pier, we have to change transportation."
Indifferently stunned, Kerwin disapproved of "ahaha" and then stopped talking.
Although Jiang Chen’s attitude towards his company and his technology made him very dissatisfied, he did not make sense and his salary could not pass. If there is a choice, he will certainly not sell his life's efforts. But it is a pity that the absolute shareholding of the Mississippi Aerospace Technology Company is not his founder, but a profit-seeking capitalist. In the face of Jiang Chen’s price, the company’s other shareholders offered their shares with almost no hesitation.
Parked in the garage next to the dock, Aisha slightly faced her face and said to Jiang Chen in a language that Kervin could not understand: "He seems to be very dissatisfied with you."
"That is of course, after all, I sold his six years of hard work and made his research worthless." Pushing the door open, Jiang Chen smiled and said to Aisha.
After a pause, Jiang Chen turned to look at the impatient Kerwin and said in English, "Okay, Mr. Kervin, we can board the ship."
Spreading his arms around his hands, Kervin simply walked over to the boat.
"Is it okay to hire him as a technical director?" Aisha looked at Jiang Chen in confusion. "You are ready to teach him something important."
For the secret of Jiang Chen, Aisha knows more or less, so she will have such concerns.
"The technical director is naturally a strong person, and I am very optimistic about his learning ability. I have always been very tolerant of talents. As for his rudeness, it is more about the restraint and rigor of technology, and has nothing to do with loyalty. As long as I can come up with techniques that will make him shocked, help him achieve his dreams, and give him enough material rewards, he has no reason to blame his loyalty."
When he said this, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but think of Jiang Lin. Intuition tells him that they are the same kind of people.
The sly expression on Aisha’s face is obviously not like understanding what Jiang Chen said. But based on the trust of no reason, she still nodded.
"Since you believe him."
"Of course, if he has rebelled by then, then please." Jiang Chen smiled.
Aisha didn't talk, just nodded simply.
The traitor will be handled by the ghost agent.
No one can escape their sniper... (to be continued.)
