I ask you to build tractors, but you build rockets?

"What we will bring is a brand new cheap high-speed communication solution. It does not conflict with the existing satellite communications. More importantly, it will assist 5G..."

At the B-level base, Long Jiacheng nervously played a PPT to a group of Xinyuan senior executives, describing the prospects of his project.

Clearly, this is a founder trying to gain the favor of Xinyuan.

Long Jiacheng, CEO of Lingxi Space Communication Technology Company, a small company with a strong background.

In addition to the aerospace companies organized voluntarily by the private sector, there are also many talents from the space agency in the private aerospace camp.

Let some thoughtful chief engineers lead some people to go out and work alone, the space agency will provide technical support, and the private sector will absorb capital, so as to achieve the goal of multi-faceted rapid development, and the risk is not high.

The "Lingxi IoT Satellite Network" brought by Long Jiacheng was originally an idea of ​​the Fifth Academy, and now he is trying to implement it.

Compared with the Jingwei satellite network, "Lingxi" is cheaper and more abundant. Its satellites are foldable and flat, which is easy to produce and can provide large communication power and wider coverage. Its selling point is that it supports 5G technology and can Providing satellite direct connection services for consumer-grade mobile terminals is very similar to the idea of ​​​​"Starlink".

The difference is that it can cooperate with the 5G construction plan that is already being prepared to create an intelligent IoT system on the ground through the interconnection of space and ground, and realize concepts such as autonomous driving and smart cities.

It's only 2017 now. People have just experienced the information explosion in the 4G era through games and short videos, and have high expectations for 5G. The "Lingxi" project has received a lot of praise after its launch, and a lot of capital is willing to support it, so Only then did Long Jiacheng pluck up the courage to come to the base to "fool" Xinyuan Company.

However, judging from the expression on the face of the big boss, President Lin, below, he seems to have little interest.

Long Jiacheng was disappointed but also took it for granted. Although Xinyuan Aerospace Power has not been listed on the market, it is already considered to be the number one technology company surpassing Huawei. Once listed, the valuation will exceed 1.5 trillion, and there will be no problem, and the funds will be extremely abundant. , it is still a bit difficult to draw a cake for them.

But what Lin Ju was actually thinking about was the neglect of the original world-line 5G market. Although it was a sensation when it first came out, it was not popular. Many individual users rejected expensive 5G traffic packages, which often cost several hundred yuan. Far beyond the market acceptance capacity.

In addition, the terrestrial Internet of Things construction and the national autonomous driving plan that were originally proposed based on the low-latency characteristics of 5G were not rolled out because the coverage of 5G base stations was too small and the construction costs were high, so he was worried about the prospects of 5G technology.

"The number of Lingxi satellites may be close to 10,000 at most. What kind of launch method do you plan to use?"

"Here, we only specialize in satellites and plan to contract launch missions to other companies. Of course, we will give priority to companies that provide support for Lingxi."

Long Jiacheng's unspoken intention was to say that as long as Xinyuan was willing, he would definitely send the launch order, but Lin Ju shook his head.

"Xinyuan will not participate in the Lingxi cargo launch bidding, but we can provide limited support for this project, but more details are needed on 5G."

Lin Ju finally decided to support it. In addition to betting on 5G, he also wanted to compete with Starlink.

With the increase in the production of SpecaX Falcon 9 rockets and the complete maturity of recovery technology, dozens to hundreds of "Starlink" satellites will be added every few days, and the number has long exceeded the Longitude and Latitude satellite network.

With the support of the Hexagon, "Starlink" almost ignores other satellites in the same orbit, and the risk of satellite collisions in space is increasing.

The Qianjun Bang No. 1, which is still being secretly tested in space, can easily evaporate the Starlink, but it will not be long before its existence is exposed.

The orbit of "Lingxi" almost coincides with that of "Starlink". They are both in low-Earth orbit. Should we compete with them for orbital resources?

…

"Just look at this, read it out and then sign it."

Liu Si sat upright, faced the camera and said obediently:

"I voluntarily participated in the drug clinical trial of the *** Biological Laboratory, accepted the possible risks in the experiment, and... Director, I don't think it is necessary?"

"Well, there are still necessary procedures."

"Lao Niu", whose real name is Liu Si, was sentenced to death with a one-year suspended sentence after being drained of useful information by the Security Bureau.

Then he faced a choice: either die in a year, or voluntarily participate in clinical trials of new drugs, and can get a two-year suspended sentence. If he behaves well, he can be changed to life or to a fixed term of more than thirty years but not more than forty years.

Liu Si, who was quite tough when he was arrested, chose the latter option without hesitation. Even though he might spend the rest of his life in prison, he still didn't want to die.

But when he was sent to the base, he was still very worried and began to regret it. After all, as a senior IAA agent, he had heard many horrific secrets about biological experiments, but it was too late to regret it.

Xie Miao first conducted a comprehensive physical examination of his body. Although he was older, he was in good condition and had no other hidden diseases, so he met the vaccination requirements for 304 injections.

Directly conducting human vaccination trials can greatly shorten the injection testing process from about two years to less than one year. He does not need to inoculate himself.

In fact, Xie Miao was even a little pity. After all, he knew that the medicines produced by the system would definitely not have any serious hidden dangers. It didn't hurt to try it himself. Who doesn't want to become a superman?

Looking at Liu Si's resentful eyes, Xie Miao said with a "You're getting a big deal" look on his face:

"Don't worry, it's not a psychedelic drug. It's our latest research and development of a human enhancement drug. It has a very long-lasting effect. I wanted to give it to myself before.

No, look at old Sun, he's so strong. "

Liu Si followed the direction of his finger and saw an exaggerated gorilla eating a banana. He suddenly became excited and began to stutter when he spoke.

"You...you guys want to turn people into orangutans?! It's against human ethics and against our ancestors...God, I knew it..."

"..."

Xie Miao expressionlessly took away the agreement signed by Liu Si and said to his assistant:

"Start preparations now and inject 304 the day after tomorrow."

The assistant nodded and asked two people to lift up the pale Liu Si and walk to a room inside. Lao Sun, who was eating a banana, showed a look of fear when he saw the room open.

"What are you going to do, what are you going to do!"

Liu Si tried to struggle, but to no avail.

Assistant: "Before injecting, you need to clear your body and adjust the electrolyte balance, otherwise you will have severe diarrhea symptoms. We are here for your own good."

The person holding him added: "I just need to wash you, and then eat liquid food for a day and give you some fluids. It's very simple and quick."

"Wash? Empty..." Liu Si suddenly understood and clamped his legs tightly.

"I don't want it! I can go on a diet, and it's just as good if I don't eat! I can survive it. I have received professional training and can go without food for several days..."

Assistant: "The diet will take a week. Don't worry, we will be very gentle."

"Help, help! You..."
