There's a black hole inside me

The Black Hole Group is about to enter space.

And began preparations in advance.

After Wei Ming announced his decision, all the executives present expressed their support and approval. No one raised any objections and they would fully cooperate.

They also firmly believe that since the Black Hole Group wants to enter the field of space development, it will definitely succeed.

It won’t take long to surpass SpaceX and become the overlord in space.

A Black Hole Group is rich, with hundreds of billions of cash flows, and annual revenue of trillions (mainly brought by Black Hole Machine Tools and Black Hole New Materials Company). It has sufficient funds to ensure that it is not afraid of playing this kind of money-burning game. .

Secondly, Black Hole Group has technological advantages.

Especially the technical advantages in the field of materials.

Materials such as super iron, super titanium, super aluminum alloy, superconducting iron, etc., have unlimited potential when applied to space exploration.

A rocket engine made of super titanium material alone can be reused at least a hundred or more than a thousand times, which is one or two orders of magnitude more than SpaceX's Merlin engine, which can be reused up to ten times.

For example, the density of super aluminum alloy is 5g per cubic centimeter, but its strength and toughness are extremely high. A shell thickness of only 2 mm can support the weight of thousands of tons of rockets. Moreover, super aluminum alloy is highly impermeable and can be used for storage. The extremely easy-to-permeate low-temperature hydrogen fuel greatly reduces the mass of the fuel tank and greatly improves its safety.

And superconducting iron materials can be applied to power equipment on a large scale to improve power utilization efficiency, reduce power loss, improve solar power generation efficiency and battery energy density, etc.

In addition, the plasma Hall engine manufactured by using superconducting accelerating coils can increase the thrust density by more than ten times, even reaching practical standards, thereby greatly reducing the fuel carried by the spacecraft - the specific impulse of the Hall engine is very high, and the ejection The plasma speed can reach 200 kilometers per second, which is a hundred times that of conventional chemical fuels.

Material is king!

The black hole group, which has huge material advantages, has almost no chance of losing as long as it makes good use of the physical properties of these materials.

…

Of course, everything is difficult at the beginning.

Especially building a framework from scratch will be very cumbersome and troublesome, especially in a technology-intensive industry like aerospace.

Recruiting talent takes a long time.

However, Black Hole Group came up with a good way to save trouble - acquiring companies.

Spend money to acquire private aerospace companies with certain technical capabilities.

Imperial Blue Sword Aerospace Company is a company with good technical strength. It has the ability to develop and produce 120-ton thrust rocket engines. It has successfully launched small rockets. It is second to none among hundreds of private aerospace companies in the country and can be said to be the best among them. .

The company’s CEO, Wu Chenwu, is a pure engineer. He has worked for the aerospace group for ten years. He is a first-class rocket engine expert. He resigned and started a business with several partners who were also engineers. He first made a product and then attracted the attention of investors. It has completed as many as 11 rounds of financing, and its current market value exceeds 10 billion. The company has thousands of senior technical talents.

Moreover, this company can calm down and do its work without losing itself in rounds of financing. It has feelings and goals. It will achieve the first commercial launch of a recyclable rocket within this year.

Wei Ming sent several people to the imperial capital to target the company and initiate a takeover request.

…

"Black Hole Group wants to fully acquire us?"

Wu Chenwu immediately shook his head: "We have no plans to sell the company. If it is to raise capital and invest in shares, we can consider one or two. We can also cooperate in terms of technology."

He had heard about the various deeds of the Black Hole Group, and he admired them, but he also disagreed with them, especially the company's exclusive development purpose, which was simply incompatible with the vast universe.

Exploring the universe requires an inclusive and open attitude, and the wisdom and resources of all mankind must be pooled to achieve certain results.

Like the Black Hole Group, if you form a small circle and play by yourself, it is impossible to succeed.

He agreed to the Black Hole Group's financing because he wanted to use the group's industrial manufacturing capabilities to improve his company's rocket technology. He upheld an inclusive and open mentality.

"Mr. Wu, you might as well listen to our terms first."

Xiang Jianbai, the representative of the Black Hole Group sitting opposite, smiled slightly and said: "The R\u0026D funding is more than 10 billion per year. During special periods, you can apply for unlimited funds; 500 units of 1-nanometer high-end machine tools will be supplied as a priority; high-end aerospace chips are being organized and developed by manpower. "In addition, I have brought several new materials developed by our company. You can study them according to the instructions and open your eyes."

Xiang Jianbai asked his assistant to hand a heavy tool kit to Assistant Wu Chenwu, and asked him to accept it with a confused look on his face.

"I would like to add that the Black Hole Group has achieved mass production of several new materials in the bag. You can get as much as you want."

Leave a few business cards.

Xiang Jianbai took the people away, leaving Wu Chenwu and others confused.

…

The next morning.

Xiang Jianbai received an unsolicited call from Wu Chenwu.

"Mr. Xiang, we have decided to agree to your group's acquisition request and accept a wholly-owned acquisition!"

"Have you considered it so quickly? Do all your company's shareholders agree?"

"They will agree, because my company's capital chain will be broken this month. We want to conduct the 12th round of financing and obtain another 5 billion in funds from the market, but those shareholders do not agree with our financing unless we wait for 'Lan Jian' No. 3' recyclable rocket. If the commercial launch is successful next month, we will give you money and promote the listing of Lanjian Aerospace Company... The time they left us is very hasty. The launch success rate of the rocket is less than 50%, and we are the same now. Being pushed to the shelves puts a lot of pressure on my shoulders!”

Wu Chenwu said on the phone: "These investment institutions actually don't care about scientific laws at all. Their purpose is just to make money by going public. It's easy to deal with them. They can delay the rocket launch mission, announce that the capital chain is broken, and the Black Hole Group can launch an acquisition at the right time. It won't cost much." If they don’t have enough money, they will choose to leave the market without losing money.”

Xiang Jianbai was very surprised: "Oh, Mr. Wu, it stands to reason that you don't need to help Black Hole Group save money. Besides, don't you have any shares in Blue Sword Company? Your own interests have also been harmed."

"My shares have long since been diluted without a trace, and I signed a betting agreement with them. The Rockets failed, the company did not go public, and I can only get a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan. I made a lot of money just for love. My wife has been divorced several times over a long period of time, and no one in the family supports her!”

Wu Chenwu expressed his bitterness: "I don't want to gamble anymore. Being acquired by the Black Hole Group may be a better way out. My engineers and technicians also support me."

Of course, after testing the characteristics of the new materials and learning about the benefits of Black Hole Group, the proportion of employees who supported the acquisition reached 100%. One employee even said that if the acquisition failed, he would switch to Black Hole Group. It was a mutiny on the spot.

Wu Chenwu did not reprimand him severely, because he had exactly the same idea in his heart.

With all these incredible materials, the president of this company can only get a monthly salary of 3,000 yuan, which is not appropriate!

What's more, with the support of unlimited funds, high-end machine tools, chip technology, etc., it is entirely possible to realize your dream.

As well as an annual salary of tens of millions, a house and a car...

Wouldn’t it be nice to join the Black Hole Group?

"Okay, as long as you negotiate with the shareholders, the acquisition application will be launched immediately."

…

A few days later.

Black Hole Group successfully acquired 100% of the shares of Lanjian Aerospace Company at a price of 9.9 billion.

This process was full of twists and turns. Many investment institutions holding shares in Blue Sword Company were not willing to sell. Although the price was not a loss, they did not make any profit at all.

But Blue Sword Company first revealed that the capital chain was broken, which attracted the attention of the entire industry.

Immediately afterwards, the launch mission of the "Blue Sword 3" rocket was postponed indefinitely because the technology was not mature enough and had many major technical flaws.

Then there was an outbreak of employees collectively demanding wages, and more than 50% of employees applied for resignation. This was a final blow to these investment institutions, and they had no choice but to stop their losses in time.

But November 7th.

Lanjian Aerospace Company announced its overall relocation to Hangzhou High-tech Zone, and the first batch of 500 employees set off and merged into Black Hole Universe Development Company.

In the news photo of farewell at the high-speed rail station.

Two days ago, Wu Chenwu was surrounded and beaten, but today, all the departing employees were smiling, holding hands, and even hugging him enthusiastically. It was a joyful, harmonious and friendly parting scene.

Some investment institutions immediately saw something was wrong.

"Wu Chenwu, you bastard!"

These investment institutions are gnashing their teeth in hatred.
