Chapter 437 The Dilemma of Civil Aerospace Industry
Musk's passionate speech completely ignited the popularity of all aerospace concept stocks.
At the same time, on the day he held the press conference, the stocks of Spae-x, Blue Origin, Roket b, bigelo, and even oneeb companies rose in an instant.
Smart people have realized their desire to double their assets by taking advantage of this east wind, while most people who know later can only become leeks in the stock market and be harvested (the stock market is risky, so you need to be cautious when entering the industry┭┮┮﹏┭┮).
The key is that it would be fine if Musk's own spae-x market value rose. After all, they have announced that they will study new spacecraft and are preparing to start the era of the universal universe. However, the following companies have no relationship with Musk, and they have also taken advantage of the east wind of the new spacecraft to harvest a group of market value.
The madness of capital is really evident.
What's even more crazy is that the first four aerospace companies are all private enterprises that build rockets and space capsules, while oneeb is just a satellite network, planning to create an information company covering the world by launching more than 600 small satellites to low orbits!
Investors are crazy and simply disagree. Anyone who is involved in the word space can get their favor.
For such people, they are basically killed by being cut off. Of course, they deserve to be cut off by others...
However, for our Liu Feng and Liu Da Capitalist, he will never take it out like Musk and show off everywhere, nor will he run into the stock market unscrupulously to harvest a bunch of leeks.
Whether it is him or his aerospace company under Fenghua Group, they are all doing their technical work with peace of mind!
Want to make money?
It's not too easy!
After all, for a big shot at an explosives award, as long as you say a word, someone will always come over and give him money.
What's more, Professor Liu, who has become the richest man in China before he knew it, still lacks the little bit of money in the stock market?
Therefore, Liu Feng did not know that under the encouragement of those interested, his papers not only successfully attracted the attention of the White House, but also staged a madness of civilian aerospace in the country across the Pacific.
At this moment, he was leisurely and contentedly hiding in the Power Research Institute to develop his own antimatter engine with his sister!
However, he was so at ease that the private aerospace capital in China wanted to find him out, and he had the intention of peeling and cramping.
Because, for domestic private capital, the so-called pulse energy engine is not an opportunity to open up the entire civil space, but rather it is like a death-driven talisman!
Jingcheng, Zero-2 Space Technology Co., Ltd.
In the conference room, there was smoke, and people heard coughing from time to time.
A group of young people who are determined to create a Chinese spae-x company frowned, watching Musk's speech on the podium and the papers written by Liu Feng.
To be honest, it is really not easy for them to get to this point in Zero II Space.
From the company's EO to the most ordinary researchers, a group of young people with an average age of less than 0 years old gathered from all directions - some came from Shuimu, Beijing Aerospace, Harbin Institute of Technology, and Western Technology, and some came from famous foreign universities such as Sheffield, Pittsburgh, and Moscobowman;
It can develop a newly established and famous small technology company step by step from scratch to the nuber one of the titular Huaguo private rocket company, and even more famous as Xinghai Aerospace Company established by Fan!
It is conceivable how many difficulties have been experienced in this.
And unlike Xinghai Aerospace, which is rich and powerful with Fenghua Group, and Xinghai Aerospace has the banner of Professor Liu Feng and Liu, at the beginning, they did not have much capital, nor did they want to join their company. The reason why they were able to get together was not only because they stepped into the storm of national policies, but also because of the passion in their hearts was supported by their passion.
Why can't China have no famous spae-x?
Musk can study Rockets, why can't they?
As their leader Shu Chang said, they are willing to become pioneers or martyrs of China's private aerospace industry!
Therefore, just as China had just relaxed the threshold for private capital to participate in the aerospace industry, a group of young men with dreams took out their savings and gathered together, successfully took the first step, and it took only one year to rise rapidly and successfully raise two rounds of financing.
In the first round, Zero II Space received an angel round of financing of more than 10 million yuan led by Chunxiao Capital, Lenovo Star, and Harbin Institute of Technology Robot Group. Subsequently, it completed a round of financing of more than 100 million yuan. The institutional shareholders introduced include Harbin Institute of Technology Robot Group, Zhengxuan Investment, Chunxiao Capital, Lu Shi Investment and Lenovo Star.
The two rounds of financing not only gained financial support, but also gained the manpower and material resources of these institutions. For a time, Zero-2 Space took off in a straight line as if it was really a rocket.
From the establishment of the project to the smooth development of rocket research and development, it took only a year to build their Os-X series rocket flight test platform!
This flight test platform dedicated to serving customers with global small satellites and related business needs and can provide customers with efficient and reliable rapid launch services. As soon as it succeeds, it has attracted the attention of all parties.
With their low cost advantages, they have even obtained satellite launch missions for many commercial companies in the next few years. After the third round of financing negotiations is successful, they can make great efforts and build the first private commercial aerospace intelligent manufacturing base in China, becoming the world's most famous private aerospace company except spae-x!
A bright future is waving to them, but now, the so-called pulse energy engine has given them a blow.
Once this aerospace engine, which is known as low-cost, high-thrust, and available on multiple platforms, is successfully developed, all traditional rockets will instantly become outdated products and garbage!
The key is that according to Musk, they were able to make this thing out within 10 years and also used the paper of the famous Professor Liu Feng and Liu as evidence!
No one would doubt the strength of Musk and Professor Liu. Even if he doubted, he would not doubt the aerospace dynamics that the Chinese and the country have successively disclosed. Therefore, from the feedback from all aspects, it is certain that this pulse energy engine has been proven to be true!
For Zero-2 Space, which just started, this is a bolt from the blue.
After all, what this means means that almost all their previous investments have been wasted!
Moreover, what's more serious is that the investors who are negotiating the third round of financing are already hesitating!
No one wants to invest in something that has become garbage before it has been developed.
"Everyone, what should we do? Should we continue to grit our teeth and do our Os-X rocket, or start from scratch and develop the so-called pulse energy rocket?"
In the silence of the whole audience, eo Shuchang finally took the lead in breaking the silence.
"I think we should continue to run the Os-X Rocket," a technical partner gritted his teeth and said firmly, "This is something we have worked hard to develop, all of which are our hard work. Many people even lost everything for it. How can we give up just by saying that we give up! What's more, the so-called pulse energy engine is just a concept now. Who knows whether it can be successfully researched!"
"Yes, I agree with Mr. Zhang's opinion!" Another partner stood up and clenched his fists and said, "According to Musk's point of view, this new engine will take about 10 years to mature; in 10 years, the variables here are too big. With this time, our Os-X rocket may have been launched several times and have been successfully commercialized. I firmly support continuing to build our Os-X rocket!"
"But our official and even the national government have determined the route of this new engine!" Someone came forward and expressed his clear opposition. "It is conceivable that in the future, only pulse energy engines are the development trend of aerospace. The more we invest in the Os-X rocket now, the greater the loss at that time! I think we should also develop in this aspect, rather than continue to study the Os-X rocket!"
"What's more, if we insist on doing our own thing, investors will definitely not continue to raise additional financing..."
"Will they continue to raise funds for us now?"
The partner just now said with a wry smile,
"No one can support this new engine except with the support of the country or with the support of the rich like Musk. The investment of billions of dollars is probably only a splash. If it can be truly developed, it will not be hundreds or even hundreds of billions of yuan, so don't even think about it!"
"What's more, we still know nothing about the technology of this pulse energy engine..."
After hearing the partner's analysis, everyone present was silent.
It’s okay to say about technology. After all, they are still young. As long as they are willing to study, they can always be independent. However, the problem of funds... No one present is Principal Wang, so how can you afford such capital?
As for investors, it would be a big deal to invest hundreds of millions or tens of billions of dollars in Rockets. With hundreds of billions of dollars in capital, it would be bad to invest something. I have to do this and I don’t know when I will see a return?
Therefore, either the state capital invests in it, or it has to have the strength to be able to play like Musk, and their zero-2 space is obviously not among them...
"So, let's take one step at a time and find a way to continue our Os-X rocket. Maybe in ten years, we will have the opportunity to grow to the level of spae-x. It will not be too late to invest in the development of pulse energy engines at that time..." The partner surnamed Zhang shook his head helplessly and suggested.
Not too late?
Isn't it really too late?
Everyone muttered in their hearts, but even the most optimistic people didn't have much hope for it.
Now it seems that it is not a question for the financingists not to want to continue. After all, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the continued development of the Os-X Rockets in Zero II Space is just a drinking poison to quench thirst. Even if there is still some profit in a short period of time, it will definitely not be able to support the research and development of new rockets in the future. When this thing is really successfully studied by others, it will be their "death period".
Is it really impossible for us to do anything?
The young passionate blood seemed to experience the end of the movie "the day after tomorrow".
It can be seen that some people present have become disappointed with the future of Zero II Space, and many people even said nothing throughout the process.
Seeing this scene, Shu Chang was secretly anxious as the helm of Zero-2 Space.
I have to say that this is the biggest crisis that Zero-2 Space has encountered since its establishment. If they accidentally, their Rockets Company really died before they could succeed.
But at this moment, what else can he do?
"Boss, the people from Jiangzhou Liangjiang Aviation Industry Investment Group are here. Judging from their tone, they should be willing to give up their financing plans for us..."
Just as everyone was secretly anxious, the office door suddenly pushed open, and the staff brought a message that almost made everyone despair.
Jiangzhou Liangjiang Aviation Industry Investment Group is the third round of financing party that Zero-2 Space is negotiating. If this matter is not done, they will receive about 100 million yuan in funds to settle in Jiangzhou Liangjiang New District to build their own aerospace intelligent manufacturing base!
And now...
The grayness on his face flashed away, Shu Chang looked up and asked, "Where is the person coming?"
"It's in our reception room." The staff responded.
"Take him to my office and I'm going to meet him for a while!"
Standing up vigorously and resolutely, this eo is ready to make his final struggle.
Zero-2 Space, you can't just fall into his hands!
"Brothers, have you just given up?"
Facing the partner who had lost confidence in the conference room, he paused, and he encouraged,
"Do you still remember our original intention of establishing Zero-2 Space? I am willing to become a pioneer or martyr in China's private aerospace industry!"
A firm and powerful gaze swept across the faces of everyone present. At this moment, you can see why Shu Chang was able to become the head of Zero-2 Space.
"We have succeeded in becoming a pioneer. As for the martyrs, our people are still here and the company is still here. How can we say that we are finished before the last moment?"
"Xiao Zhang, when the 02 space was almost impossible to rent an office, and many people were planning to give up, do you remember how you solved it? You said that there was no office, so we could rent a farmhouse in the countryside, or at worst we could go to the bridge to work under the bridge hole..."
"Xiao Wang, before the first round of financing, when we couldn't even afford a box lunch, do you still remember how we spent it..."
"Xiao Li..."
The skills that eo must know - inspiring!
With a passionate voice, Shu Chang looked back at the glorious years of the people present when they started their business together. In a sentence, it is to wash away all the dew and put it in a plain posture, and thousands of miles and mountains are just waiting!
With his encouragement, in an instant, the strength of the friends recovered a lot, and they were so energetic that they were not as desperate as before.
However, it ignited the comfort of the entire venue, but it did not ignite the melancholy in my heart.
The future of Zero-2 space,
Where?
Chapter completed!
