Chapter 279 Satellite Commercial Launch

Rebirth in the 1980s

Asia's number one!

A chuckle appeared at the corner of Sun Conxuan's lips, and she knew that Chen Huaiqing would definitely agree to this matter.

A new Asia Satellite Co., Ltd. was established in Xiangjiang, which is 100% controlled by Ta Investment.

When AsiaSat was still an empty shelf, it sent people to the United States to formally negotiate with insurance companies.

The entire negotiation process went smoothly, but the insurance company suddenly hesitated when AsiaSat wanted to transport the satellite to China for launch.

Launching a missile for China would put yourself in danger again.

In the past, satellites were launched using space shuttles and recovered using space shuttles.

But does China have a space shuttle?

Can only be launched using rockets.

Rocket launches are truly 100% success and 100% failure.

Talking about this matter is rather troublesome.

Regarding this, Chen Huaiqing was not in a hurry and asked people to talk to the insurance company first. Chen Huaiqing was even thinking that he would not let others contract the contract and just ask for the satellite.

But this doesn’t seem to work. If it fails, the loss of US$1.2 billion will have to be borne by AsiaSat itself.

US$1.2 billion does not seem like much, but Chen Huaiqing can afford it.

But things can’t be done like this!

Why bear all the risks when you can obviously pass them on?

Chen Huaiqing had forgotten when exactly China began to undertake satellite launch missions.

But one thing is certain: China has not yet launched this business.

reason?

Everyone doesn’t trust China’s rocket launch technology!

Even if China’s rocket launch costs are lower, people still won’t consider it.

People who can afford or buy satellites will not say that they will look to China for launch because the cost of Chinese rocket launches is lower.

Low launch costs are useless!

Everyone buys satellites just to use them.

If it fails, the satellite will be gone.

Wouldn't that delay things a lot?

Therefore, everyone would rather spend a high price to find a launcher with a high success rate.

It’s okay to spend more money, I’m just afraid of delaying things.

There are no insurance companies now, so people don’t worry about how big their losses will be if they fail.

While AsiaSat was negotiating with insurance companies, it also sent people to contact China Great Wall Industrial Company.

This is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the aerospace company, which specializes in undertaking satellite launch missions.

But the business is not open yet.

Facing Asia Satellite Company's initiative to come to its door, Great Wall Industrial Company was somewhat suspicious.

After all, such a company, which I had never heard of before, said that it was negotiating with an American insurance company to purchase a satellite, and that it wanted to hand over the satellite to Great Wall Industries for launch.

We also hope to complete the launch next year and obtain some basic information about the satellite.

Data such as weight and diameter are naturally public.

As for the internal technology of the satellite, even if AsiaSat purchased the satellite, there is no way to know it.

The entire launch process will definitely be supervised.

Apart from transporting it, it is simply impossible to take apart the satellite.

AsiaSat hopes that Great Wall Industries will come up with a launch plan and launch quotation as soon as possible.

The goal is to transport the satellite directly from Los Angeles after Asia Satellite Company and the insurance company have negotiated, and the launch preparation period will begin immediately.

Facing the urgent situation of Asia Satellite Company, Great Wall Industrial Company was somewhat uncomfortable.

I even felt that I had met a liar.

But I called Ta Investment to check and found out that this company does exist under Ta Investment.

And they did send people to the capital to discuss satellite launch with Great Wall Industrial Company.

Everything is up to the opponent.

It turns out that it is a wholly-owned subsidiary invested by him, so everything seems to be in order.

The equity structure of Ta Investment is not announced to the outside world because Ta Investment is not a listed company.

But everyone knows that his investment is controlled by Chen Huaiqing.

The only question now is whether AsiaSat can buy the satellite.

There won't be any problems when it comes to launching satellites.

China’s Long March 3 rocket can meet launch needs.

As long as the satellite is delivered, it can be launched.

In addition, the Aerospace Industry Company has some thoughts.

Everyone knows that Chen Huaiqing is rich.

Chen Huaiqing's cooperation with the Third and Fourth Machine Departments was something that the other Machine Departments envied.

I won’t talk about the large aircraft project.

The entire project R&D team, including the R&D team specifically for large aircraft projects, was directly packaged to Mota Aircraft R&D Co., Ltd.

Yes, Mota Aircraft R&D Co., Ltd. is established in Chang'an, and it only deals with aircraft research and development. As for aircraft manufacturing, it cooperates with Chang'an Aircraft Manufacturing Factory.

Chang'an Aircraft Manufacturing Factory specializes in the development and production of transport aircraft, and is quite strong in this field.

After Mota Aircraft R&D Co., Ltd. settled in Chang'an, it began to carry out large-scale construction in Chang'an.

The first is to solve the life problems of R&D personnel.

Although Mota Aircraft R&D Co., Ltd. bears the name Mota, it is not actually affiliated with Mota Group, but is a joint venture between Ta Investment, the Aircraft Department and Chang'an.

Of course, in terms of management model, it is basically the same as Motta Group.

Facts have proved that the management model of Motta Group is quite vital and dynamic, so why not use it?

Mota Aircraft R&D Co., Ltd. has built a large high-end living area in Chang'an.

In the eyes of modern people, the dormitory area of ​​Mota Aircraft Research and Development Co., Ltd. is a bit too high-end.

It is said to be a dormitory, but it is no different from commercial housing.

Of course, there is a difference, that is, it is better built than the commercial housing now.

At this time, there are already commercial housing in China, but the development of domestic commercial housing communities is not very mature yet, and there are many problems in many designs.

Real estate developers in Xiangjiang have entered the mainland to build commercial housing, but they are mainly concentrated in Shenchuan and some large eastern cities.

For example, there is no such thing as Chang'an in the west.

Mota Aircraft R&D Co., Ltd. is located next to the Chang'an Aircraft Manufacturing Factory, which studies aircraft. Now in the Mota Aircraft R&D project team, many people were transferred from the Chang'an Aircraft Manufacturing Factory.

So basically everyone at Chang'an Aircraft Factory knows about the Mota Aircraft Company.

What else can I say besides envy!

In this regard, some leaders of Chang'an Aircraft Factory have great opinions on this.

Isn’t this disturbing the morale of the army?

But it’s hard to say anything. Do you think that when you see other people’s lives going well, you don’t let them live it?

There is no reason for this.

As for cooperation with the Fourth Machinery Department, that is also progressing steadily.

In the early stage, the entire domestic lithography machine research institute was integrated and brought to the capital.

The lithography machine R&D center has also been officially established.

People have now discovered that Chen Huaiqing particularly likes all kinds of buildings, and he also likes large and special buildings.
Chapter completed!
