Chapter 347 The anger is not small

"Like Tesla, we are just starting out here, and everything starts from scratch," Musk took Feng Yiping, Martin, Mark, and Straw, and all the directors of Tesla, standing on a platform on the side, looking at the busy workshop below, and speaking in a high tone.

At this time, he was crossing his waist and swept over the engineers dressed differently from the general manufacturing industry below. Just as a child is finally expected to get his favorite toy, the enthusiasm is mixed with joy and excitement.

"I also believe that just like Tesla can change the pattern of the automotive industry in the future, after our rockets produce results, it will definitely change the pattern of the world's aerospace industry," he said.

These guys have one thing in common, they will seize all opportunities and confidently and enthusiastically promote and promote their own opinions to anyone.

However, I have to say that this style is indeed very infectious.

However, his speech was not effective at this moment. Everyone was curious about the place in front of them who was about to produce the rockets.

"It doesn't seem easy either," Martin whispered.

"It's really not difficult," Straw said. "This is also a high-end system project. However, one of the advantages of this project is that the design and manufacturing of rockets can only be guaranteed to work normally for a few minutes, but our cars, in terms of design and manufacturing, must ensure that they can work normally for at least tens of thousands of hours."

"Yes, one is consumables and the other is durables. And you heard from Musk that he has recruited so many experts from airlines. From technology to design, he doesn't care about any patents. He hopes to use the existing ones? Can we do it? He only cares about using the lowest cost and trying to reliably complete the space launch."

Martin thought more, "So overall, I still think it's more difficult for us. Although we drive on the ground, our cars, at least all of the core technologies, will be our patents in the future."

"Yes, I heard that Nasa has also opened up some of the technology of the Apollo program so that they can develop suitable rocket engines according to mission requirements and overall design. Nasa has also allowed them to use test benches, and the Air Force has also provided them with testing grounds,"

Mark said with resentment, "But we don't have such good conditions. Those large car companies are preparing to watch our jokes while guarding us."

"In the aerospace field, spaex is a pain-ridden little brother, and in the automotive field, we, Tesla, are now a troublemaker with a lot of tone,"

"You're right,"

The others were worried about Mark's statement. In the past period, they had felt too much pressure from traditional automobile manufacturing companies, especially Martin, who was poaching people everywhere.

He went to a car company, but it was not as popular as Musk's airlines.

"We try every means to reduce costs," Musk explained to Feng Yiping some of his Rockets' attempts. "We buy used equipment on eBay," he said.

"I also try to free them from the Rocket Experts' thinking and find inspiration from everything, for example, we once thought, can we use the milk can on the milk truck to hold fuel? It's mass-produced stuff, very cheap, and not many malfunctioning,"

He threw the stack of documents onto the table, "I am very disappointed with the company's cost control capabilities."

Although he was very angry, he still made a point of fact. He didn't say that my Rockets company had only invested 100 million US dollars.

"I admit that the company has room for improvement in some aspects, especially after visiting the spaex today, I learned a lot of good ways to save costs. I have arranged some things at noon. I can be sure that when we return to Silicon Valley, some new measures will be planned,"

"So I'm very confident that our cost control will be in line with the spaex next,"

Martin's words were really sincere.

But obviously Musk was not satisfied with his statement and his face did not improve, "Have you finished speaking?"

"No," Martin has a good temper this time, "Please wait for Musk,"

"I will ensure that every point we invest is spent in the place where we should use it, but as a CEO, I must ensure that the company has sufficient finances and cannot wait until we are almost out of money to raise the capital issue," he said.

"Feng," Musk said, "I think it is necessary for us to intervene in Tesla's daily management. This research and development is not a matter of overnight. The daily expenses will increase. In a few years, it will not be a small amount. I don't want to develop a so-called perfect model that is unaffordable for the public in the future."

"Martin also welcomes everyone to participate in the company's construction and management. I definitely agree with your proposal. I will try my best to take time. As for you, you see, can you take a fixed time to go to Silicon Valley every month now?"

Musk thought for a while, "No problem,"

"Then I also want to confirm a consensus. It is impossible to develop the ideal electric vehicle in our minds for only the billion dollars we invested. Therefore, capital increase is inevitable. Everyone has no objection to this,"

"Feng, you know, I don't have any opinions on capital increase," Musk said. "I just hope we can improve the cost control level. As for capital increase, it will be done as stipulated in the charter."

Regarding capital increase, the articles of association determine that everyone increases capital contribution according to the original investment ratio, which is beneficial to Feng Yiping, a major shareholder who is not short of money.

"Then we will make sure that before the one-year expiration of next July next year, we will pay the registered capital of 10,000 yuan. Then at the end of July, we will hold a board meeting to determine the specific details of the capital increase,"

"Agree," Martin raised his hand first.

"agree,"

"agree,"
