Rebirth 99 to become a car giant

The graphene issue has been very hotly debated in the industry for some time.

Nanshan Chemical has also officially started research on the application of graphene with its brothers in the group and other Chinese companies, striving to enter large-scale mass production of the product this year.

The chemical reaction will be greater that way.

At the same time, Daystar Technology's operations for the first moon landing trip have officially begun.

At 8:00 a.m. on March 31, 2016, the Venus 9 MAX recyclable rocket carrying the lunar rover officially lifted off from the Qiongzhou Satellite Launch Site.

Although there are no astronauts inside this time, there are only lunar rovers, robot dogs and other related equipment.

But this is China's first formal march to the moon in thousands of years, and it has naturally attracted the attention of countless people at home and abroad.

Since humans first landed on the moon in 1969, only the United States and polar bears have successfully reached the moon so far.

And since the 1980s, the global journey to the moon has come to a standstill.

After twenty or thirty years, China has once again launched a craze for moon landings, and the situation is naturally very different.

"Mr. Cao, this scene is so worth looking forward to. Tonight our news broadcast will allocate three minutes to introduce Daystar Technology's moon landing journey."

China Channel naturally takes such an important news scene very seriously.

In fact, not only China Television arranged a special interview team to come to the Qiongzhou launch site, but also people from domestic mainstream news media came.

Since the journey to the moon cannot be completed in one or two days, it will last a long time.

As long as there are no surprises, this topic will become a hot topic in the Chinese news industry for a long time to come.

"Thank you Huaxia TV for your continued concern and support for us. If you need any promotional materials, you can contact Daystar Technology at any time."

Cao Yang and Xia Hong are old acquaintances.

As Xia Qingqing's aunt, Xia Hong also takes care of Nanshan Group companies as much as possible within the scope of the rules.

Of course, even if there is no such relationship, Huaxia TV will definitely take good care of the Nanshan Group's enterprises in China.

"I heard that you are already making simultaneous preparations for manned moon landing, and the subsequent starship spacecraft will also officially launch moon landing tests."

"At your current pace, maybe the number of moon landings in the next three years will exceed the previous combined number of moon landings by the United States and polar bears."

Before Xia Hong came to the Qiongzhou launch site, she went to learn about Venus Technology's moon landing plan.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand it. After a thorough investigation, I found that the situation is really exciting.

Many people may not have imagined that China's technological strength could reach this level.

In the past, everyone always thought that the United States was the most technologically advanced country in the world, but now you will find that China has caught up with the United States in many fields.

Even in many fields, China has become the number one in the world.

Nanshan enterprises, represented by Venus Technology, are among the best.

Whether it is the Venus 9 recyclable rocket, the Venus 9 MAX and the starship spacecraft project, they are the first in the world.

Needless to say, the Starlink satellite system will be fully completed this year.

Even if the Space Exploration Technology Company desperately tries to catch up from behind, it cannot catch up.

In the field of high technology, as long as you are one step ahead, you may always be ahead.

For others to catch up, the effort required is huge.

For example, if Venus Technology builds a base on the moon, it will be very difficult for other countries to surpass it.

People have already transported hundreds of tons of personnel and materials to the moon, but you are still working hard on how to land on the moon.

How can this gap be so easily bridged?

"The United States and polar bears made landfall in the 1960s and 1970s. We are already in 2016. If we cannot surpass them, it would be unreasonable."

"Not to mention the next three years, at most next year, our number of moon landings will exceed those of their two combined."

"For this kind of thing, the most difficult thing is the beginning. Once the beginning is done well, the subsequent transmission frequency can be very fast."

"Just like our current Starlink satellite system, rockets are launched every week. If necessary, we can even launch rockets every day. The technology is very mature."

Cao Yang answered Xia Hong's question with confidence.

But this made Qian Junfeng next to him very envious.

Several new rockets from the aerospace science and technology side have been in development for several years and have not yet been officially put into use.

As for the super-heavy rocket, the drawings are still being perfected.

Now Venus Technology has completed all the starships and spacecrafts and begun intensive testing work.

Just last week when the moon landing rocket officially took off, the second flight test of the Starship spacecraft was successfully completed, and more test projects will be launched next time.

Even recycled starships will be used for the second launch test at the same time.

This kind of progress is definitely not comparable to aerospace technology, and it is also not comparable to Polar Bear United Rocket and Space Company or the United States.

Because of this situation, relevant departments are already questioning some arrangements of aerospace technology.

Is it still necessary to allocate relevant funds?

For example, Venusstar Technology already has a better rocket to use, so is it necessary for Aerospace Technology to continue to research its own heavy rocket?

Is this considered a duplicate investment?

The relevant issues made Qian Junfeng very worried.

However, compared with Qian Junfeng's headache, NASA in the United States is even more worried.

Since NASA is the first institution in the world to achieve the moon landing, now that Venusstar Technology in China has started a new journey to the moon, various media will naturally compare many things between the two sides.

On the one hand, it is a comparison of the rockets used by everyone to land on the moon and other arrangements.

On the other hand, it is a comparison of the development differences between the two sides in the past ten years.

No matter which comparison is made, it is not very friendly to NASA.

"Musco, how is your Starship spacecraft project being studied now?"

Early this morning, Grenfell received a lot of interview invitations from the media, all of which talked about NASA's moon exploration.

After all, the United States has always advertised itself as a leader in global science and technology.

Now it is indeed a bit unworthy of its name, and naturally not every media will indulge NASA.

In the United States, there are also different factions, and everyone has different demands.

Some people are definitely dissatisfied with the situation of NASA.

Griffin, who is a bit overwhelmed, now puts NASA's hope of landing on the moon again on the Starship project of Space Exploration Technology.

It just so happens that the Starship project of Venus Technology has also been close to mass production, completely ahead of Space Exploration Technology.

This is another embarrassment.

"It is already a very fast thing to complete the drawing design work this year, and the specific content has been communicated with you before."

Musk was also a little speechless.

Such a large project, can it be accelerated immediately by a phone call?

How difficult is it to develop a product like the Starship spacecraft? How difficult is it?

If it is really that simple, NASA can do it by itself, why is it always chasing him?

"If we follow this pace, won't we be able to mass produce it the year after next?"

"Let alone the year after next, it would be a very ideal scenario if our starship can be officially put into manned flight before 2020."

"Of course, we also admit that Venusstar Technology in China has indeed achieved global leadership in this regard and has become the world's number one."

"But I believe this lead is temporary. In a few years, we will definitely catch up, or even surpass."

When Musk said this, his tone was still quite confident.

After all, in the field of recyclable rockets, Space Exploration Technologies Corporation's start was not later than Venusstar Technology.

It's just that Venusstar Technology's development speed was a little faster in the middle.

He is still confident that he will catch up with Venusstar Technology in the Starship spacecraft project in the future.

According to his speculation, after Venusstar Technology completes the Starship spacecraft project, it should not fully develop a new generation of spacecraft in the short term.

Because the Starship spacecraft can basically meet the aerospace needs of the next ten years.

Continuing to develop more technologically advanced products, whether it is technical bottlenecks or investment risks, is very huge.

As a private enterprise, Venusstar Technology does not need to jump into the pit without any special pressure.

And according to some plans released by Venusstar Technology, their future focus is on developing the moon and building a large-scale base there.

This gives SpaceX more time to realize the Starship spacecraft project.

"Then we will formulate a specific promotion plan and officially announce this plan to the outside world."

"Otherwise, if there is no response at all, there will be all kinds of reports on the Internet, which will be very unfavorable to us."

Griffin listened to Musk's explanation and had no better way.

Now he can only give some PPT to the public.

Otherwise, what can he do?

...

And on the second day of Venusstar Technology's moon landing journey officially began.

On the European Space Agency side, Werner also personally led a team to communicate with Cao Yang and Zhao Siyu about future cooperation.

"Cao, our European Space Agency's lunar surface negative ion analyzer, France's radon gas detector, and Rome's laser corner reflector are all pretty good."

"For the next lunar launch of Venus Technology, we can provide these devices for you for free. You just need to share the information detected by these devices with us."

Werner gave some of his conditions sincerely at the beginning.

The European Space Agency wants to participate in Venus Technology's lunar exploration journey, but it is not like the Emirates that can provide huge financial support.

In this case, it can only pick up from its own technology list to see what else the other party can appreciate.

Through this kind of technical cooperation, it can gain a certain voice.

In this regard, Cao Yang thought about it for a while and agreed.

After all, equipment procurement is a very normal thing.

It’s just that because of the pursuit and interception by the United States, Daystar Technology now localizes everything.

But it does not mean that domestic products are 100% better than imported products.

Now the European Space Agency has taken the initiative to provide these valuable equipment for free. When the time comes, Venus Technology will take a look at it. There will definitely be further technological breakthroughs in these fields.

What you need to pay is to share part of the lunar exploration data with the other party, which is not particularly relevant.

With this data, the other party may be more interested in lunar exploration in the future.

And the other party does not have the strength in this area. The greater the interest, the more necessary it is to proactively find Venus Technology to discuss cooperation.

At that time, all the initiative was in the hands of Venus Technology.

If you are asked to pay, pay, otherwise don't play.

"Daystar Technology's moon landing project welcomes any interested investors from around the world. Naturally, we are very interested in these equipment from the European Space Agency."

"Let Mr. Zhao arrange for specialized technical personnel to connect with technical experts from the European Space Agency to see how to install these equipment on our detectors."

Werner breathed a sigh of relief when he heard what Cao Yang said.

At this time, he no longer had any pride.

If Daystar Technology doesn't take them to play, they have no choice at all.

NASA no longer has the capability to land on the moon, let alone the European Space Agency.

As an organization jointly established by several European countries, although the European Space Agency can take advantage of some group advantages, it is also destined to have many inherent disadvantages.

Not every country’s voters support using their tax dollars to develop some ethereal technology.

Especially if the European Space Agency spends a lot of money to catch up with technology when it lags behind the rest of the world, the significance is even more worthy of discussion.

"No problem. We have brought the relevant technical information and parameters of the equipment. We can have a good exchange in the next few days."

Werner was very anxious, because he knew that Daystar Technology was moving very fast, and if he wanted to carry their equipment on the next lunar landing, he had to act as soon as possible.

Otherwise, it would be embarrassing if someone else's rocket had already taken off.

We can't wait until others have already built a base on the moon before their equipment starts to be mounted on other people's rockets, right?

By that time the daylilies were already cold.

With such a good start, other cooperation between the European Space Agency and Daystar Technology will naturally go smoothly.

However, all the negotiating initiative is definitely firmly in the hands of Daystar Technology.

The advantage lies with me. If you are willing to cooperate, you must follow my rules.

Even the various instruments on the spacecraft have Chinese interfaces.

If you're not used to it, don't use it.
