SpaceX, the leading enterprise of the world's private aerospace companies, has even surpassed many national teams in the world in aerospace technology.
The reason why SpaceX can have such technical strength is inseparable from the support of NASA.
The star glory, which is valued by Fang Zhe and has not yet been born, also has a similar background.
In previous lives, Peng Xiaobo, the founder of star glory, was born in the first Aerospace Academy. Many of its technical backbones are also talents from the domestic aerospace system. It can be said that star glory is a private enterprise on the surface, and behind it can also be regarded as the "going to the sea" of the national team.
In previous lifetimes, StarCraft glory was founded in October 2016. It took less than three years to put the rocket into orbit. This step alone exceeded all domestic and 99% of the world's private aerospace enterprises.
...
In Yanjing Huizhong headquarters, President's office, Fang zhe put the list of intended investment projects on the table. The reason why Fang zhe suddenly wanted to build rockets was because of a name in the list, blue arrow aerospace.
The domestic aerospace policy is loose. As the leader of the domestic venture capital circle, Zhongying capital and Huizhong investment department will not miss this gale. Therefore, since the end of last year, investment managers on both sides have begun to pay attention to start-ups in this field.
However, this field is too high-end and far from being affordable for ordinary entrepreneurs. Therefore, after investigation for so long, the only private aerospace enterprise valued by Zhongying capital and Huizhong investment department is blue arrow aerospace.
Unfortunately, even if the blue arrow spaceflight, Fang Zhe is not satisfied, so he has the idea to promote the birth of interstellar glory.
"Alpha, let Xinming and Siyi come over!" Fang Zhe, standing in front of the French window overlooking the whole Huizhong Park, suddenly said.
"OK, president Fang!" a mechanical reply came from a palm sized black speaker on Fang Zhe's desk.
Since visiting Bill Gates' mansion in the United States, Fang zhe has been thinking of integrating more and more smart homes and smart devices into his life.
The alpha sound on the table is one of the billions of avatars of Huizhong's artificial intelligence brain alpha. At this time, most of the alpha ontology is deeply studied in the data center specially established by Huizhong, a small part acts as intelligent customer service and game robots for Huizhong's various businesses, and a smaller part, There is a guessing robot in the exhibition hall of Huacheng Huizhong future research institute and the intelligent speaker on Fang Zhe's desk in front of him.
More than ten minutes later, Fu Xinming, head of Zhongying capital, and Huang Siyi, head of Huizhong investment department, appeared in front of Fang Zhe.
Looking at the appearance of the other party at the same time, both of them were surprised. Although they had excellent personal relations and had a lot of contacts, president Fang generally summoned them separately to report their work. It is rare for them to summon them at the same time.
"Sit down as you please. I want to talk to you about something!" Fang zhe didn't beat around the bush about the two old subordinates who were already familiar with each other.
Fu Xinming and Huang Siyi looked at each other and sat on two long reception sofas, one left and one right, respectively, leaving the short sofa in the middle to president Fang.
"I see in the list you two reported, there is blue arrow aerospace, a private aerospace enterprise. Tell me what you think." Fang zhe walked from the window to the sofa and sat down.
"Blue Arrow Aerospace?"
Fu Xinming and Huang Siyi looked at each other. They were quite impressed by this enterprise. After all, this is the most potential private aerospace enterprise in China at this stage. How can they not be impressed by such a high-end start-up company building rockets.
"The founder of this company is Zhang Changwu. He graduated from the Department of finance of Huaqing University and once worked for HSBC and Santander Bank of Spain.
Zhang Changwu founded blue arrow aerospace, thanks to his acquaintance with Wang jianmeng, chairman of blue arrow aerospace.
Wang jianmeng is a senior engineer of the former China satellite launch measurement and control system department. He has a certain background of government scientific research relations in the aerospace field.
In addition to Wang jianmeng, Wu Shufan, CTO of blue arrow aerospace, also comes from aerospace system and has worked for the European Space Agency for 15 years.
On the whole, among the domestic private aerospace enterprises, blue arrow aerospace is the one with the most development potential.
”
Fu Xinming briefly introduced the materials of xialanjian aerospace, and Huang Siyi sitting opposite him added:
"The main positioning of blue arrow aerospace is medium and large liquid powered rockets. Compared with traditional solid rockets, liquid rockets are characterized by reusable rockets. Of course, this is only an ideal goal. At present, even SpaceX, which has been testing and recycling rockets in this way, has not been completely successful.
Recycling rockets is the most important way to reduce rocket launch costs, and it is also the advantage of commercial aerospace compared with traditional aerospace. "
Fang zhe agrees with the idea of commercial aerospace as a liquid rocket, but Fang zhe really disagrees with a start-up commercial aerospace company running for medium and large rockets.
"Is it a little rash to locate medium and large liquid powered rockets?" Fang zhe questioned.
Fu Xinming and Huang Siyi smiled bitterly at the same time. Fu Xinming said:
"The two of us have also discussed this matter in private. We feel that making small liquid rockets has more commercial potential. We also feel that for a start-up private aerospace enterprise, it can save time and cost by quickly testing iterative technology through small liquid rockets.
However, at present, domestic private aerospace has just started,
In addition to blue arrow aerospace, it has some technical strength, and others are more unreliable than this. "
"We are also dwarf generals, but we have no choice! If we don't vote, we will lose too much if we miss this tuyere!" Huang Siyi added.
Fang zhe nodded. He agreed with their investment ideas. The tuyere had appeared. Even if he was not completely satisfied, he had to occupy the pit first.
"Have you two ever thought that we will promote the establishment of a private aerospace company as a small liquid rocket?"
"Ourselves?" Fu Xinming and Huang Siyi opened their mouths in surprise.
Building rockets is too far away from Huizhong's main business. If the outside world knows this news, I'm afraid it will be startled at the first time!
"President Fang, aren't you?" Huang Siyi just wanted to ask. Fang zhe interrupted:
"I just say that we should promote it, not that we should do it ourselves. Just like Wei Lai, who makes new energy vehicles, we need to find even a group of people with ideals, aspirations, technology and execution to promote it, and we provide them with financial and resource support.
In short, we are not short of money. What we lack is a group of people with dreams of building rockets! "
