Pengcheng, Cattle Star Headquarters.

In the secret conference room of the senior executives, less than ten people attended the meeting, but they were all responsible for the space program, including Academician Ma, the chief designer of [Earth Cannon], Zhou Lin, president of Meow Star Group, and Li Maoye, the big shot of Meow Star.

In the first few minutes, everyone was not on the topic, but was discussing the post-war commendation conference prepared by the military some time ago, including content related to the Meow Star Laboratory.

"They want to send me a medal?"

Li Maoye was a little indifferent to this. He was not a badge, so he smiled at Zhou Lin and said, "I won't attend the conference. Let Assistant Xie help me receive the award!"

In fact, the conflict on the border has long ended, but the relevant departments have been carrying out the final work, and it has been delayed until now that the relevant personnel are rewarded for their merits.

As the most important developer of the "ghost killer", Li Maoye of course also has his honors and merits. The personnel related to the Meow Star Laboratory have also received rewards, and each of them even got a sum of money for it.

In addition to the money that R&D personnel have to get, the laboratory has also received hundreds of millions of R&D funds, which is considered an additional fund for project R&D. This amount of money is basically a drop in the bucket for real R&D institutions, and I am afraid that even R&D materials can't be afforded.

The basic situation is like this. In addition to additional funding for the drone air carrier, there was still a lot of R&D funds left above, and there were more than one billion yuan on the books in total. In the end, it has to be discussed.

"The drone air carrier is almost out, so I will use this money as a project bonus to everyone! Cheng Fei and Shen Fei's relevant personnel are included, and the bonus will be determined based on the contribution!" Li Maoye generously decided the use of the remaining funds, and then everyone stopped talking about this topic and continued to talk about the Meow Star Space Plan.

Just as we were discussing how to arrange the work plan, someone outside suddenly interrupted the meeting and said that Musk came to the headquarters of Cat Star alone to meet President Zhou Lin, and also handed in a note.

Zhou Lin looked surprised after reading the note and immediately passed it to Li Maoye beside him, asking him to make up his mind how to deal with Musk's request.

Li Maoye opened the note and looked at it, then smiled and said, "Our meeting may have to be paused. Let's talk to Musk first."

Seeing Academician Ma and others' puzzled expressions, he simply passed the note to others to see. Anyway, this matter will definitely spread next.

Everyone was happy after seeing it, "Is Musk going to sell himself? He is willing to sell the entire 'Star Link' to us?"

Li Maoye thinks this situation is normal. Although Musk is arrogant, he has always paid attention to real problems, especially technical issues. Once he finds that things cannot be done, he immediately acts to break his arm and survive.

"Although we didn't specify the price, we admitted defeat before our Cat Star Space Plan was announced. I'm afraid he couldn't even shout too high a price!"

"And he was worried that we would ignore ourselves, and he also specifically stated that spacex is also in the scope of transactions!"

"The question is, do we need spacex, or do we need starlink?"

The "star link" in Musk's hands is of course very valuable. Even though it is not as good as the space satellite communication system planned by the Meow Star Group in terms of technology, it has already left others behind in terms of market operations and user experience. Even if Meow Star catches up, it will take several years to catch up.

Now Musk is very proud to package it for sale. Although he has not expressed his final intention yet, this approach is undoubtedly to completely withdraw from the space satellite communications market and give way to the Cattle Star Group to take advantage of the situation to enter.

Everyone analyzed it a little and felt that there would be no conclusion if they guessed like this. Only face-to-face conversations can make clear Musk's real purpose.

So Li Maoye asked the others to leave first, leaving only Zhou Lin and Academician Ma. The three of them chatted with Musk together to see what he sold in his gourd!

Then I saw Musk walking in with great energy. He didn't look like a person on the verge of failure, nor did he look like he wanted to sell the treasure in his hand to others.

If it were someone else, they would either worry about not being able to sell the "Starlink" or be indignant because they were about to lose years of hard work.

"Academician Li, I didn't expect you to be there too!" Musk looked a little surprised. He thought that the person he was going to face was mainly the cat star president Zhou Lin.

Li Maoye was not in the mood to talk nonsense to Musk and said directly: "I'll give you three minutes, why do I have to buy Starlink!"

Musk is wearing the latest translation headphones. Even though both parties use their own native languages, they have no barriers to communication. Facing only a few minutes to explain clearly, he did not ask for more time. The first thing he said was:

"The reason is very simple, just because I love Meow Star Black Technology!"

"I want Starlink to be a helper for the space program of Meow Star Group, not a resistance from the competitors!"

In Musk's opinion, it doesn't matter who "starlink" is in his hands. As long as it can help him achieve his landing on Mars, it is a great goal he has set since he was a child.

Then he talked about his interest in science when he was young, and his hard work for decades to realize his vision of landing on Mars. He had been leading others forward in the dark, but he didn't expect to see a glimmer of hope in the Cattle Star Group.

"In order to speed up the development of the Meow Star Group's space program, I am willing to present the Starlink with both hands!"

After listening to Musk's affectionate speech, Zhou Lin and Academician Ma looked at each other, and each saw a look of surprise from each other. They didn't know if they could believe these words.

Only Li Maoye could clearly feel that Musk was speaking his heart with sincerity.

At least at this moment, Musk is using real emotions to impress the audience. As for whether he has excellent acting skills and deceives himself, no one can be sure of it.

"Starlink" is the most valuable thing in the hands of Spacex, besides the Falcon Rockets. If Musk is willing to give up the Meow Star Group, it will indeed speed up the advancement of the Meow Star Space Plan.

No matter how powerful the [Earth Cannon] and the "Star Engine" are, it will take at least half a year for Meow Star Group to build the same satellite communication network system.

After all, this starts from scratch. It takes a lot of time to build satellites and "Starry Engines", and then launch and debug, etc., which requires a lot of time and personnel to do it.

Starlink itself is already in formal operation. Even though its technical level is much lower than that of Meow Star's plan, it is enough to prove its commercial value and stable performance.

With Musk's "Starlink" in hand, it can indeed save Meow Star Group a lot of time and effort, and even the satellite technology level can be solved through gradual replacement.

According to the original plan, Musk had to launch thousands of satellites every year to replace the old satellites. If it were to replace the satellites with "Starry Sky Engine", of course, there would be no need to be so troublesome.

"So what are your conditions?" Li Maoye asked.

Musk stretched out a finger and said with a serious expression: "I want a ticket!"
