Sure enough, everyone's interest was very high when they let go. One by one, they seemed to have countless words to express.
And the first questioner directly asked a question that is the most core and most concerned by everyone. Their team's future research and development direction and goals.
Hearing this question, Wu Hao smiled, and then said to the crowd: "At this stage, our research and development goal must be a low-cost, safe and reliable large launch vehicle. Only by doing this can we continue to carry out other the study.
The first thing we have to solve is a part from scratch. No matter what, we must first get the rocket out.
Of course, you can't deal with it at will. The so-called non-sounding has become a blockbuster. Since it is going to be done, then do a good job and come up with a product that others will look at.
As for the launch vehicle, I actually don't know as much as you all here. So I just say my understanding in this regard is for your reference only.
First we have to figure out what are the most critical elements of the rocket, the carrying weight, safety and reliability, and price! Everything else is centered on these three.
For all of you, these three points are issues that you will face in the future, even in your life.
Our goal is to create an excellent launch vehicle with the largest load, the highest safety and reliability, and the cheapest price, laying a solid foundation for our exploration of the universe.
How to overcome these three issues, I don't know, so it depends on you to explore. "
Having said that, Wu Hao paused, took a look at everyone present, and then said, "I don't have specific research directions and plans. This requires you to make plans tailored to local conditions.
Let me talk about the general research direction here. Our current priority is to establish a comprehensive research and development team for launch vehicles.
The primary goal of this launch vehicle R & D team was to develop our first launch vehicle. My requirements are not high, as long as the satellite can be safely put into orbit.
The main purpose of this phase is to train the team and prepare us for the tasks of the next phase. Some people may think that this stage is already very difficult, and it is not enough to send satellites to the sky. "
At a glance at everyone, Wu Hao shook his head and said, "Not enough, not enough. If that's the case, then how can we compete with the market. Let's not talk about the far-reaching official-led transport rocket echelon, let's say now, there are two Private enterprises have used their own rockets to launch satellites into space (Note 1).
Even if we catch up with each other, that is the third. The world is very realistic. People will always remember who the first is, but they may not remember the third. So what we need to do is not to catch up with each other, but to surpass each other. "
Taking a breath, he continued: "After having a complete and mature research team, we will officially start our R & D plan.
On the one hand, we need to use large 3D printers to try to print large components on rockets and gradually increase the share of such components.
Regarding 3D printing technology, it is relatively mature at present, but the application of such components to the carrier rocket is being tried by major aerospace research institutions in the world.
With 3D printing technology, the corresponding manufacturing rocket has shorter manufacturing cycle, lower cost, lighter weight and higher material strength.
This means that this type of 3D printed launch vehicle not only has a higher weight-to-weight ratio, but also has a very low cost price, which will be very competitive in the market. "
After hearing Wu Hao's plan, the crowd could not help but start discussing it in a low voice. However, he did not give these people time to discuss, but continued: "On the other hand, that is to develop a retractable rocket. The purpose is still the same, that is, to save launch costs as much as possible.
Why did we always want to acquire Zerogram Aerospace before? We just appreciated their R & D progress on retractable rockets.
Although the acquisition failed, we will not give up in this technology area. In the future, we will not only invest more funds, but also recruit more talented people to come in.
There is always only one goal, and that is to create a better launch vehicle. "
Papapap ... Everyone applauded when he saw him finish.
And Zhou Xiangming, who has been listening to him carefully and taking notes, sorted out his notes at this time, and said to Wu Hao, "General Manager Wu, in fact, we have already used it in the current research and development of experimental rockets. It's time to build in 3D printing.
It is just that although the 3D printing technology has matured, there is still a certain gap in some finishing fields. With the current 3D printing technology on the market, the accuracy required for parts on transport rockets is still reached. "
"There is no one on the market, so we can do our own research and development. The scientific research technology is not just a little bit of exploration. If you want to be good, you must first sharpen it. There is no one who can take advantage of it. If you can do it, you can live well."
Wu Hao laughed at Zhou Xiangming and everyone: "In the field of 3D printing technology, our country has always been at the forefront of the world. In this regard, we have advantages and classic cases that we can learn from.
Therefore, I hope that everyone can take up the courage and determination of the predecessors to pioneer and work hard to create our first in this field.
Are you confident? "
"Yes!" Although there was something in the bottom of my heart, but the emotions came, everyone shouted with a loud voice.
"Okay, let's work together." Wu Hao smiled with satisfaction.
"General Manager Wu, our current scientific research conditions are very simple, can you change us a better place. There are also scientific research equipment, many of which we don't have yet, can't we ..."
Before this technician said it, EbookFREE.me ~ was interrupted by Wu Hao, smiling and pressing his hand: "I turned around here today, it's really a bit rude. So, when I went back, I started to arrange. Let people help you find a better place.
At present, our new headquarters has not yet been completed, so everyone will be wronged. As for scientific research equipment, you can see what is missing, and then compile a list and report it. I stepped up approval, and then let people get started.
Of course, the first batch of 50 million funds will arrive soon, and you can discuss and use them by yourself.
There is a place for you, that is not to be wasted. In this regard, the company has a special monitoring and auditing working group staring at them and caught them. Even if I love you any more, I will cry with tears. "
"Thank you Mr. Wu!"
Although Wu Hao reminded these people in the end, they still did not affect the joy of everyone. Especially after hearing that 50 million funds will arrive soon, this is the same as a person who has been poor for a long time and suddenly hits 5 million.
