I asked you to save a bankrupt factory and you became the richest man in the world.

Chapter 580 465-466: Musk thought of some layouts! (4000 words)
Many people in the media circle often complain that Hillhouse Capital only knows how to do fancy things. What this company can come up with in one year would take other companies ten years to come up with.

One statement is that Hillhouse is very good at grasping hot topics of public opinion and has the ability to quickly amplify them.

The second is that Hillhouse’s own product strength is very strong. It is not only good at capturing public opinion hotspots, but also good at digging out hotspots.

Such a company that is good at both R&D and marketing is actually very scary.

During this period, Hillhouse Capital, which has its own traffic, hopes to establish a new company, Hillhouse Aerospace, which has become the focus of news and public opinion.

However, over the past few months, Hillhouse has kept what it has done for this company confidential.

However, the vast ocean of stars is a place where all human beings have dreams, so naturally, we are looking forward to what this company is going to do.

Soon, Hillhouse Group announced some specific information about its new company, Hillhouse Aerospace.

First of all, the person in charge of Hillhouse Aerospace BU will be Liu Changjun, former chief engineer of the liquid rocket engine series of the Sixth Academy of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation and deputy chief engineer of the Long March 6 carrier rocket!
He was the core person in charge of the successful development of Hillhouse Aerospace from 0 to 1, and reported directly to Gao Huaijun.

Second, Hillhouse Aerospace will focus on liquid-fuel rockets in the initial stage and will launch its first rocket, Qinglong-1, into space one year later.

This rocket will use liquid oxygen and methane as propellants, which will fill the technological gap in China's liquid oxygen and methane rockets.

The rocket is expected to have a two-stage configuration, with a body diameter of 3.35 meters, a full rocket height of 49.5 meters, a take-off weight of 219 tons, and a take-off thrust of 268 tons.

火箭一级采用4台80吨级液氧甲烷发动机并联，二级采用1台80吨级液氧甲烷发动机和1台10吨级游动液氧甲烷发动机组合而成。

This rocket will directly compete with the 9 version of the Falcon 1.0, both of which are two-stage orbital rockets.

该规划火箭的起飞重量219吨对333吨，近地轨道LEO载荷4-6吨对10吨。

The only difference is that the propellant used by Falcon 9 is kerosene/liquid oxygen, while Qinglong is designed to use methane/liquid oxygen as propellant.

The third is that the complete rocket that is comparable to the Falcon 9 is expected to complete the development of the Qinglong 2024 within four years, that is, in , and be launched experimentally.

Then, the self-developed liquid-fuel rocket was successfully launched into space, which was the first step in the subsequent development of a reusable and reusable launch vehicle.

In other words, Hillhouse Aerospace will be able to develop a product that is comparable to the Long March 5 within about five years after its establishment.

To outsiders, this is simply incredible!

Hillhouse is so aggressive that it seems like it wants to bring the national team in as well!

A rocket is not a car or a mobile phone. If it falls down, it will be a big problem.

Especially if there is someone above you, someone will probably go to jail.

Many die-hard fans don’t want Mr. Gao to become a stubborn Mr. Gao!
As soon as this news was announced, it immediately occupied the front page headlines of major news websites in China.

Everyone was shocked by Gao Huaijun's ambition.

The sea of ​​stars is the dream of mankind.

Now suddenly a private enterprise wants to enter the high-end interstellar exploration camp. How can people not be yearning for it!

[Many people say that Gao Huaijun is too brave, but I really admire Gao Huaijun's courage. Human beings must break through themselves. Back then, they said that landing on the moon was impossible and that SpaceX's recycling rocket could not be built. Now it has taken five years to develop a product that matches the Falcon 9. You can also say that it is impossible, because the meaning of human existence is to do the impossible.]

[Don't tell me it's impossible. Nothing is impossible - from Pearl Harbor.]

[It took only 66 years from the Wright brothers' invention of the airplane to the Apollo program. Hillhouse has developed the Falcon in five years, and it is based on the success of its predecessors. I am happy to see it succeed.]

[Hillhouse Technology has changed the way people use mobile phones. Hillhouse vehicles can bring electric vehicles and artificial intelligence driving to new heights. I can imagine that Hillhouse Aerospace will definitely be the number one private space company in the future, and it will be the number one for a long time in the future. I have confidence in Chinese companies and Chinese engineers! ]

[This is what a human being should be like! What Gao Huaijun did satisfied all my imaginations of the strongest male human being! ]

[I bought Hillhouse Automotive's stock two days ago. I bought it even though I knew it was at a high price! For no other reason than to make a small contribution to the advancement of human technology. Even if it can never be fulfilled, even if Hillhouse Automotive is delisted and goes bankrupt, I will pay for Gao Huaijun's dream! I will take over for the country. ]

[Gao Huaijun is launching a spacecraft, Ma Yun is distributing golden sentences and chicken soup, Mahua Teng is exploring skin, and Li Yanhong is distributing medical advertisements. Every company has a bright future.]

[Haha! The person above is really making me laugh to death. Do you want to inherit my Huabei? ]

[I am studying flight control at Harbin Institute of Technology. Most of my majors will go to the two major central enterprises in the capital, but I want to study hard and become a member of Gaoling Aerospace. After all, every man has a dream of the stars and the sea! ]

[Come on, big shot above. I hope I can save up enough money to buy a ticket to the moon in my lifetime. Life is only a few decades long, who doesn't yearn for the boundless sky? ]

[A little-known fact: For the sake of confidentiality, each chip of Gaoling Mate 20 is printed with "Made by Humans on Earth". Many people were surprised at the time and thought that Gao Huaijun was just showing off. Now I know why. He has more in mind than just a company! ]

[I admire him so much. To build a rocket, how much money and technical research is required in the early stage, but he is determined to do it. He is indeed a man who has reached the limit of human imagination.]

[There is a group of people who have gone crazy for their dreams. Without any irony, I pay tribute to them! ]

[Buffett once said, I will never short my own country in my life. In China, such a person should be Gao Huaijun! ]

【According to Hillhouse Group's sales in 2019, Gao Huaijun's family's wealth ranks first in China and has become one of the top ten richest people in the world. It is expected that they will become the world's richest man in the near future. A real technology company should be like Hillhouse, not an Internet financial company that lends money or raises pigs in a community, nor a company that robs piglets in Miao and Wadi. The hymn of mankind is the hymn of courage. The ultimate goal of mankind will always be the stars and the sea, and explore the universe. Those who say that Gao Huaijun is a dreamer lack imagination themselves. If humans stay on Earth, it is like a baby that dies in the womb. As long as people make progress in science and technology, they are not only dreamers and capitalists, but also doers. 】

[The person above is an intelligent person! ]

This topic has been highly discussed.

Generally speaking, in this fragmented era of information explosion, a hot news that can stay for 24 hours, even for a year, can be considered a relatively influential big news.

However, the news about Hillhouse Aerospace was directly on the front page of major media and stayed there for three days!
This not only means the recognition of Hillhouse as a top-tier traffic force, but more importantly, the Chinese people hope that in the crown of the aerospace technology industry, the Chinese people can leave traces that are sufficient to influence the times for this generation.

Before Gao Huaijun, no wealthy person in China had ever publicly announced his ambitions and bold statements regarding space travel.

But now, as soon as he opened his mouth, he was willing to take out at least hundreds of billions of yuan to support the implementation and development of this project.

Hundreds of billions!

Even if this money was taken to the United States, it would be enough to support a private aerospace company that is not much inferior to SpaceX.

In China, the R&D efficiency can be said to be several times that of the United States!

Whether it is the salaries of R&D personnel, the expenses of test benches, or the expenses of manufacturing plants, these are much lower than those of companies in the United States.

The fact that such an enterprise, a Chinese private enterprise known for its high efficiency, was entering this field really shocked ordinary people.

Hillhouse Capital has joined this group and is working on big rockets with Musk's SpaceX.

Many people feel that 2020 will be a very meaningful year, and may even become a major event that will go down in history.

Therefore, not only in China, but also some people abroad are shocked that Chinese people have started to play with rockets, and judging from the posture, they are going to play as well as SpaceX. This also gave Hillhouse a very good opportunity for overseas publicity.

In the eyes of many foreigners, Hillhouse Capital is a mobile phone company or a car company.

However, without the halo of a local Chinese company, many foreigners are actually a little skeptical about the Hillhouse brand.

Can Chinese people make good products?

Can the Chinese achieve their best results in top-level technology?

Can the Chinese people withstand the aggressive attack from Western developed countries?

Each question actually represents a kind of doubt.

It wasn't until the suicide of the United States that things suddenly got better.

Oh!
This company was actually able to be self-destructed by Xida!
I guess there is something there!

At this time, except for some products affected by self-destruction, other products sold overseas by Hillhouse were actually growing at a relatively large rate.

Foreigners admire the strong!
Your strength will make them confirm your awesomeness!
Just then, Hillhouse Aerospace appeared.

Moreover, it expanded against the trend despite the background of self-commitment!

This little-known Chinese brand transformed into a somewhat famous Chinese brand, and finally became a great entity comparable to SpaceX.

This contrast, this yearning for the sky, directly refreshed the cognition of foreign audiences!

How dare you play like this after being forced to commit suicide?

Why does this company rely on this?
This is a big question in many people's minds.

But now, they were deeply shocked.

Either die peacefully or live brilliantly!
This kind of exploration of one's own limits makes everyone feel surprised, but after the surprise, they will feel deep admiration.

This is the Human Expander!
"It's interesting that Hillhouse is setting up a space company. I'm eager for this kind of competition." Musk smiled when he saw the information about Hillhouse Aerospace.

SpaceX's rockets exploded one after another, starting with the very first ones.

In fact, it was also ridiculed by a lot of people.

Rubbish.

waste.

Useless.

One label after another is put on SpaceX!

Almost no one is optimistic about the future of SpaceX.

But after the successful launch of Falcon 1.0 version , everyone's impression of Musk underwent a fundamental reversal.

Sigma man is the biggest label that many people give to Musk.

However, he actually had a regret in his heart.

That means there are basically no private-level competitors!

What is Blue Origin? How can it compare with SpaceX?
But now, Hillhouse has appeared!

"What a lifelong enemy!" His mother appeared next to him.

"Mom, please don't come into my room without knocking." Musk pursed his lips and said to his mother with a smile.

"You are a talkative boy, but your big rocket is also very popular recently." Musk's mother said to him with a hearty smile.

"It's not my big rocket that is popular, it's my competitor who suddenly made my big rocket popular again, and I don't like that." Musk pursed his lips again, shrugged and said.

He is a lonely and proud person.

He's also a bit crazy.

The main reason why he created Tesla was to provide sufficient funding for SpaceX.

Precisely because SpaceX is so important to him, he felt a deep sense of crisis about the establishment of Hillhouse Aerospace.

"What's wrong? Are you scared?" Musk's mother said.

"Afraid? This word is not allowed in my dictionary!"

"Driverless cars, strong artificial intelligence, commercial spaceflight. Gao Huaijun is really my lifelong enemy!" Musk suddenly sighed and said.

As a powerful opponent of Gao Huaijun, he suddenly understood what Gao Huaijun's plan was.

That is to use these seemingly unrelated but actually closely connected industries to violently ignite the third scientific and technological revolution!

Commercial aerospace, as the most cutting-edge science of industrialized products, has extended into outer space.

Research and development and product application in outer space-related fields can catalyze the further transformation of Hillhouse's internal scientific research capabilities.

Although the direction of this transformation is unknown, Musk is sure that Gao Huaijun is willing to give it a try!
At the same time, he also felt a deep sense of crisis in his heart.

This Chinese man's obsession with technological research and development is even crazier than his!
He is really too courageous!

At the critical juncture of self-destruction, he actually dared to play with commercial space, a big expensive toy.

Without a deep insight into the future and extraordinary self-confidence, one would not dare to take this step.

Hundreds of billions of dollars, if it were in the United States, that would be hundreds of billions of dollars of funds spent, just like fireworks, leaving brilliantly.

but now?

He is exploring the limits of Hillhouse!
Musk suddenly stopped smiling and stared at the scenery outside the window.
