Chapter 304 Musk's decision
California, small town Hawthorne.
In this small town with only a few thousand people, there is a very famous space exploration technology company, commonly known as the headquarters of SpaceX.
"According to the design, the Falcon Rocket will send people to the designated location and return to Earth again after more than ten days!"
Musk, who was full of energy, spoke loudly of the launch plan. More than a dozen engineers surrounded him like stars arching the moon, and many media reporters were taking photos and recording.
Musk, who is nearly 60 years old this year, looks only about forty years old, and looks energetic like a young and middle-aged man. Those who are interested can find through photos and videos over the years that Musk's appearance has changed drastically in recent years.
There is a rumor that Musk has obtained some kind of black technology product of Meow Star, which can resist the aging and changes of body, and can even reach the level of immortality. It is a technology of the bald boss' "gene immortality".
"Many rich people have purchased this kind of medicine, but its price is very high, and I'm afraid it's not something that ordinary people can afford!" The whistleblower described it in a tangible and colorful way.
"The price is very high? How high is it?"
Some people don’t believe this matter very much and think it is an unreliable rumor!
"When I first came out, I needed hundreds of millions of dollars to buy a potion. I don't know whether the price has been reduced now!"
"Wow! Even $100 million is too exaggerated!"
"That's right, according to what you said, rabbits can earn hundreds of billions of dollars by selling us a thousand potions every year? This is much larger than the deficit in the sweater war!"
The whistleblower sneered and said, "Thousands of potions? I think so beautifully! It would be nice to have ten potions flow out every year, and I want thousands of potions!"
No matter what, Musk has a way to get this mysterious potion anyway. According to the whistleblower, Musk has used more than one, because his reverse growth is too obvious!
I'm afraid it was because of the connections of the rabbit, otherwise even the top ten richest men in Forbes would not be able to get so many potions to use.
So not only did reporters ask about this matter, but some people asked him to verify the authenticity of the matter on Twitter.
"Class! There is no such magical medicine in the world. I have never heard of it anyway!" Musk of course denied this matter and explained: "I have undergone carbon nano-machine treatment, and the cells in my body are detoxified regularly, and then I have this strong body!"
Then he praised Li Maoye's R&D capabilities and believed that carbon nanomachines would be the greatest invention of this century, and that even a hundred Nobel Prizes would not deserve it!
As for whether the truth is like this, only Musk himself knows it, but he looks younger and he has changed several girlfriends during this period.
Musk, who is so energetic, is of course more concerned about his Mars immigration plan. He plans to strike while the iron is hot and continue to work hard to speed up the research and development of the Mars immigration project after the Starlink project is successful, and strive to realize his dream as soon as possible.
The reporters took photos while recording, and planned to post a headline when they went back. Now Musk is the darling of capital, and many people want to know what he is doing, what he said, etc.
However, just as Musk talked about the key issues, his assistant suddenly came over and whispered, which quickly changed his face. He hurriedly ended the topic in the next few minutes, and then took the opportunity to leave the conference room.
The reporters want to keep up. They have a keen sense of smell and feel that they have encountered big news, which may be worth several headlines!
"You can't go over!" The assistant quickly stopped the person and explained: "This is the president's personal matter and has nothing to do with this interview!"
A reporter expressed doubts, so he called an insider to try to understand what happened outside, which actually made Musk run away without even pretending to be a pussy.
The result was unexpected. According to the news from all parties, except for the Asian conflict that just ended, it seems that no major event in the world has happened, and it seems very calm.
"Strange, if there is no major incident, is it really a fire in Musk's backyard?"
Everyone knows that Musk once had multiple girlfriends, but they did it very cleanly and would not do anything to take several boats at the same time. This should not happen. I have never heard of Musk encountering this problem.
"Probably not! I don't think it's very similar. If it were really in that aspect, Musk wouldn't be so anxious!"
The reporters kept whispering, discussing what happened. After waiting for almost an hour and a half, they didn't see Musk come back. In the end, the assistant came to inform them that today's interview was over.
"I always feel that things are strange, a bit like a slight start!" The reporter was still speculating on the way back, and he couldn't ask any questions even if he sent someone to investigate. It was not until a week later that he learned that this matter was related to the Meow Star Group.
The reporters' feelings are correct. This has nothing to do with Musk's private affairs, but rather serious corporate affairs. Because there are news reports from secret channels, Meow Star Group is preparing to build a space satellite communication network!
"What?" When Musk learned about this, he ran over tens of thousands of grass and mud horses in his heart, and he was almost disobeying his composure on the spot and scolded him.
However, he still learned from his past experience, quickly controlled his expression, and then used the excuse to leave the place surrounded by reporters and came to a secret office where he could learn more detailed information.
"According to reliable information, Meow Star Group has long had a space plan..." The person in charge quickly briefly explained the general content and handed over the relevant information, allowing Musk to read the documents himself.
Musk became more and more frightened the more he looked at it. Only then did he realize that the person who helped him launch satellites was to prepare sufficient funds for the Meow Star Space Plan and to perform performance tests of the [Earth Cannon].
Originally, he thought that Cattle Star Group would not have similar plans in the short term, and even if there was a Starlink plan that would not be possible, it would have a great advantage for the latecomers if they seized the initiative.
But now it seems that these advantages are gone because Meow Star Group has a black technology "Star Engine"!
Moreover, according to the general Meow Star Space Plan, they perfectly avoided the advantages of the Starlink Plan and used the space station plus satellites to crush it, pointing straight to the lunar base!
"It's really impeccable!"
Musk threw away the intelligence files in his hand and began to ponder how to deal with this crisis. Once his Starlink system is not handled properly, he will be defeated. Then users will only choose the satellite communication service of the Meow Star Group, causing the Starlink to roll into the valley as soon as it reached the top.
While thinking, he also recalled the suffering and light experienced by the Starlink Project. Before the [Earth Cannon] of the Meow Star Group came out, the Starlink Project was already in the quagmire of failure!
SpaceX cannot achieve a stable launch success rate, keeping the launch cost below US$3,000, so how to reduce the launch cost is the key to success or failure!
Originally, Musk originally planned to complete the plan by 2024, but he continued to postpone the timeline as time went on until he obtained the launch contract of the [Earth Cannon], and in just a few months, a total of tens of thousands of satellites were launched.
This process was extremely smooth, and there was no failure in launch, which really surprised many people who looked down on the "Starlink Project": "Iron Man Musk has come back to life!"
The design concept of the Starlink project was finally achieved. It connected each other through tens of thousands of satellites, and then built a ground base station based on the distribution in the ground, successfully building a cheek space student system covering the world!
So when the Starlink program was officially launched, global media spent a lot of time reporting, among which the headline of the New York Times was: "The Starlink program was successful!"
He made a straightforward announcement to the world that Musk's fanaticism has come true again. He has bragged about many great things over the past decade, but he has realized them step by step.
Many people didn't believe it when the Starlink project was released, but it had been successful. Perhaps in more than ten years, Iron Man Musk could really send humans to Mars!
Because Musk once said that he would send 1 million people to Mars by 2050 to realize the planet immigration plan. If the Starlink project goes smoothly, the profits it generates will be an important capital for SpaceX to log on to Mars!
When this day came, SpaceX's stock price rose by more than ten percentage points, and there is no sign of a decline so far, just because Musk claimed to rely on the [Earth Cannon] of the Meow Star Group to launch satellites, saving about one-third of the launch cost for the entire project!
The cost of this third is as high as billions of dollars. If you treat it as the funds earned by SpaceX, its stock price will increase by a few more percentage points!
As for the purchase of Starlink communication service packages, it was even more snatched by users in various fields as soon as it was launched. Among them, companies and individuals who use aircraft the most are companies and individuals. Nearly half of the more than 20,000 civil aviation passenger planes in the world use Starlink for communication, and then 200,000 private jets were purchased in Bald Eagle.
Secondly, large cruise ships and various commercial small and medium-sized cruise ships. In addition, many private yachts in rich people are a must-have service. After all, you cannot use 5G network when you arrive at the high seas.
What remains are islands, scientific research teams, mountain tourists, remote areas, etc. They also need to use Starlink communication services!
It can be said that Musk helped them solve the pain points of demand and allow more scenarios to use the functions of Internet wifi. Even though humans have been in the era of information explosion for decades, in many cases, they will still make humans escape from the torrent of information and become small fish on the information desert.
That's why Musk is confident that he can earn $30 billion a year through the Starlink program, and then use the profits to push up the company's stock price, so as to raise enough funds for the Mars immigration program!
If the [Earth Cannon] had not appeared, Musk might not have a chance of success, but he would definitely be able to run ahead of everyone.
But Xiao He succeeded and failed. After helping SpaceX launch the Starlink satellite into the sky, it also announced to the public that it would build its own space satellite network and join the global satellite communications market!
This suddenly forced Musk into the corner. Everyone knows that every time Cat Star Group enters an industry, it will completely change the original ecology of the field, and in the end no one can resist the power of Cat Star Black Technology.
There is a joke online saying: "Comeo Xing Technology, who dares not follow!"
Faced with the aggressive cat star, Musk decided to fly to Pengcheng and find it directly to the door...
Chapter completed!
