Chapter 529:Anxious Musk

The American "Observer 5" passed the Pezzos Heights in advance and missed this rare scene, the creature unexpectedly came to the surface of Mars, but soon the afterglow of the dusk to kill, only the hard body skeleton was exposed, in front of the cosmic rays, even on Mars for 2 billion years of tenacious life is so fragile.

Wind and sand are invading, and the biological skeleton of more than 4 meters long begins to be gradually submerged by dust, and when the "Observer 5" comes to the Pezzos Heights again, this intact biological skeleton will never be found again.

The planet, where visitors from Earth will land in the coming months, has confirmed the coordinates of the Mars landing site, in a low-lying area near Pezzos Heights.

...

Earth.

Since the completion of the trial of the "Angle 1" space transport aircraft of China Matrix, the first time in the global aerospace field caused an uproar, the "Tianzhou" there are many astronauts from various countries, Li Xingfeng in the inventory of goods when someone summed up the weight of the goods, in order to estimate the "Gang Ying 1" approximate carrying capacity.

The results of the results made these people stunned, even more than 40 tons of carrying capacity!

The load peak of the US "Columbia" space shuttle is only about 30 tons, which is smaller than the U.S. space shuttle, and can carry far more than the tonnage of the space shuttle.

The news quickly reached the aerospace agencies of major countries, and everyone's awareness of the CMSX-made transport aircraft has risen to a new height.

The amount of carrying capacity is a key factor in measuring a country's strength in the aerospace field, the American launch vehicle can transport even 70 tons of cargo at a time, but the cost is terrible, the rocket consumption is really real money, cheaper delivery capacity means that the cost of space exploration will be greatly reduced, the meaning of which is self-evident.

And inspiration to let SpaceX become the solar system's most popular air transport company, technology man Elon Musk also learned the news, this news undoubtedly makes "Silicon Valley Iron Man" food taste, can not sleep at night.

If CSSX competes with SpaceX in the field of space transportation, the other side is such an excellent transport aircraft and no rocket booster can send materials into space without the help of any rocket booster, its cheap freight, efficient launch capability makes the "Rain Eagle 1" have the greatest competitiveness in this field.

Spacex, which is still using rocket boosters, is instantly weak in a grade, although it can recover the rocket, but it is no longer a grade, it is no longer a grade, it is no longer difficult for Musk to sleep.

However, the only thing that makes him feel a little comfort is that Ren Hong once gave him a promise, Ren Hong once said that SpaceX and Matrix Technology should be allies, not opponents.But today, Musk does not dare to expect too much of this ethereal promise.

After the successful completion of the trial of "Angle 1" by cmsx, the South African space agency began to contact Liu Yuliang, the helm of the Chinese matrix cmsx, and the content of the negotiation is unknown.

But Elon Musk is very nervous about this incident, because before this, South Africa had already announced that it had commissioned SpaceX to help its country send a meteorological satellite into space to meet South Africa's needs, and SpaceX's cheap space transportation was the best choice, of course, before the "Angle 1" was not born.

If South Africa cancels its cooperation with SpaceX and invests in the arms of the Chinese matrix cmsx, it will undoubtedly be a heavy blow for SpaceX, and the impact will be more than just a failure of cooperation.

Just as Elon Musk was fidgeting, a phone call from across the Pacific Ocean called his room.

“Reave?Why call me when you have time?Is there anything?”Musk said doubtfully.

There was a long laugh in the communicator: "Don't call, I think you have to lose sleep for a while, even Iron Man can't carry it, ha!" 」

“Uh...” Musk was stunned, and suddenly there was an embarrassment on his face, although the other party could not see it, but he knew that the embarrassment was definitely spread along the wireless signal to the other side of the Pacific Ocean.Elon Musk naturally heard the meaning of the words in Ren Hong's words, and it was even more embarrassing to hear, and he did not know what to say for a moment, and his face flushed.

“My promise is still valid!”In the communicator, Ren Hong said flatly, but there is no doubt, and a voice will come later: "Honestly tell you, Musk!cmsx's capacity is impossible to empty out to third-party services, we ourselves are busy, and even in order to win time may also need SpaceX's help to increase a little capacity, haha, of course, if you and NASA are not afraid of us to go to Mars first."

The combination of CMXx plus NASA CNSA, as well as another combination SpaceX plus NASA, both of which are secretly struggling for Mars, strictly speaking, Ren Hong and Musk should be due to competition, but this does not prevent the two sides from personal relations.

Competition is a fact, and strategic cooperation is a fact.

Elon Musk said helplessly to the communicator: "You know, as SpaceX CEO, I don't mind that the company can get an additional order, or even very happy with that huge amount of revenue, but NASA will not agree."To tell you the truth, it's not surprising, as far as I know, Washington is going to issue an injunction against SpaceX."

On the other side of the Pacific Ocean, inside the Matrix Technology Headquarters, Ren Hong led a chimpanzee hand to the "incarnation research room", and smiled at the communicator: "Also, my demand you can't supply, and your spacex inventory of rockets will be sent to three or four hundred tons of materials."

Musk shrugged his shoulders, the communicator again came to the other side's voice: "I guess you can't sleep, it is estimated that it is the people in South Africa, I also give you an internal news, no accident they will leave tomorrow to return home, the head of cmsx has refused them, how?"Can you sleep tonight?”

Elon Musk froze for a long time, and immediately laughed after the reaction: "You really have a heart, this news works better than any sleeping pills, it's a pity that SpaceX has lost such a super customer as you."

“A little greedy...” came a laugh in the message.Matrix technology is not a general super customer, "Tiangong Ring Star Port" 7,700 tons of volume all show the matrix technology ten rich in the main body, in the aerospace field, investment funds than all the world's total is higher, it is estimated that soon, Bigelow Aerospace announced with China matrix cmsx reached a strategic cooperation agreement, "Fireworks" space station will also surface, two more than a thousand tons of artificial objects, respectively, in the field of Mars and Earth.

The two shuddered for a while before the end of the communication, Elon Musk happily left the phone aside, and the depression in his heart was swept away.He naturally knows better than anyone that money does not earn the truth of the bastard, Ren Hong personally came to give himself a dose of strong agent, that is because SpaceX is one of the United States, matrix technology to win more than half of the United States as a strategic ally, in order to contain the U.S. government may give him pressure, the intricate interest bond is enough to make Washington shoot.Ren Hong chose the former between allies and vested interests, which is the value of SpaceX to matrix technology, or all the companies with which they have reached strategic cooperation agreements, the greatest value.

Ren Hong gave up his vested interests and chose the overall situation in strategy, which is also a happy situation for both sides, after all, businessmen, especially American businessmen, are the interests in the first place.

However, this feeling of being held in the lifeblood, Elon Musk is also very upset, but also helpless, thinking that a breakthrough in technology must be in order to solve this embarrassing situation, after all, the helm of matrix technology today is friendly to SpaceX, who knows what will happen tomorrow?

Although it is a little depressed, but the mood is also very good, at least the current difficulties do not exist.

Otherwise, if South Africa cancels the cooperation with SpaceX and turns to the arms of CMSX, Musk can expect that once the news is out, the next day when the stock market opens, the company's stock will inevitably fall.
