Chapter 698: Could it be that we think too much?

United States.
California.
SPACE-X headquarters building, the site of a press conference.
Musk, who is wearing Silicon Valley fans, is facing the audience at the press conference and the footage in the hands of journalists from major media, using his unique and provocative voice to explain the future blueprint of Space-X.
At this moment, a futuristic bright silver bullet-shaped spaceship was being printed on the screen behind him, dragging a narrow arc of light soaring against the backdrop of the blue planet and boundless space.
On the side of this spacecraft, in addition to the Space-X logo, the words BFR are also printed.
的 The theme of this press conference is around these three words.
"... The main thrust rocket of the first section will be powered by 31 Raptor methane rocket engines, and the second section will integrate 2 sea level engines and 4 vacuum engines. The fuel tank can store a total of 240 tons of methane, and the maximum thrust can Reaching the kiloton class ... Of course, these are not the key points I want to say, the focus is on our series of plans around the BFR spacecraft. "
After that, Musk paused for a moment, looked around the audience and the camera, and continued.
"We will launch two manned spacecraft in 2024 to start our plan!"
There was a burst of astounding discussion under the ring, and the reporters carrying spears and short cannons were frantically pressing the shutter in their hands.
Aerospace!
Even nothing new for Americans.
But exploring the starry sky and colonizing outer space is still so fascinating.
If not, Star Wars would not be a national movie in the United States.
Watching the atmosphere in the field has reached its peak, Musk's mouth pulled a smile and raised his volume.
"... Once the development of the BFR is completed, it will replace all the launch vehicles we have developed and become a spacecraft capable of performing almost all space flight missions. Whether from the surface to the moon, or from outer space to Mars, we Can be achieved with its power. "
"It will redefine our understanding of space."
"It will also redefine our future!"
Later, Musk continued to talk about the advantages of the BFR spacecraft over traditional space rockets, and Space-X's blueprint for Mars Village.
Amidst applause, the press conference came to an end.
The reporters at the scene swarmed up and surrounded Musk from the stage.
I finally managed to finish all the interviews, and Musk's raised mouth gradually lowered.
打 After sending away all the reporters, he quickly walked back to his office, and fart. Sitting on an office chair, he couldn't wait to pull out his mobile phone and glanced.
But looking at the rising line in the screen, Musk finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the tight string in his heart gradually dropped.
The feedback from the stock market told him that the press conference went quite smoothly.
FRThe concept map of the BFR spacecraft has injected a dose of cardiac stimulant into the tepid space market and also injected a shot of cardiac stimulant to investors who believe in him.
Of course, it's too early to relax.
Nothing in the capital world can be said well, especially for high-tech companies like them.
Whether those investors with pockets full of banknotes can continue to support his dream is not entirely dependent on the kind of checks he can write, but the most fundamental thing is whether he can cash out what he once wrote. check.
I am very lucky. Thanks to controlled fusion and lithium-sulfur batteries, the overall performance of the new energy vehicle industry is good. Tesla's stock price is rising enthusiastically. Investors ’confidence in him has also recovered a lot compared to a few years ago. But after all, aerospace is a brand new field. Even he is not 100% sure, and can always be so smooth.
At this moment, a knock on the door rang, and a female secretary in professional attire quickly walked in.
"President, someone is looking for you outside."
Musk frowned as he was about to take a break.
"Who?"
Secretary Heong hesitated and said, "They claim to be CIA ..."
"The CIA man?" Musk hesitated slightly, playing with his pen and forefinger holding the pen cover, "I don't remember I had an appointment--"
Only halfway through the utterance, the office door was rudely pushed open, and the two men in black coats came in one after the other.
I cast a dissatisfied look at the two, and Musk said, staring at the two who had come in without knocking.
"I don't seem to agree with you, or do you have the investigative authority of the court?"
"Sorry, Mr. Musk, but the situation is urgent, and I hope you can forgive me," ignoring the dissatisfaction on Musk's face, the black detective showed his credentials and continued, "You can call me for the first meeting. Aiden. "
I stared at the black agent for a moment, and Musk suddenly frowned and leaned back on the chair.
"Musk ... Anyway, if you know me, I won't introduce myself. Do you want some coffee?"
探 The agent behind Aiden said, "No need, we'll hurry."
那 "That line," looking at the woman secretary standing near the desk, Musk casually said, "Alyssa, help me make a latte."
"Okay, Mr. President." The secretary nodded and turned to the door.
Aiden: "..."
Agent Detective: "..."
After about five minutes, the coffee is finally served.
的 Aiden, who didn't intend to waste time, asked directly.
"We learned that about two months ago, Xingkong Technology ordered a batch of parts worth US $ 20 million from you, right?"
Musk thought about it for a while, and indeed nodded.
"Yes ... I remember that batch of parts was not on the banned item, is there any problem?"
Aiden continued aggressively: "The problem is not with those parts, but with what parts are used."
He wasn't intimidated by his tone, Musk said impatiently: "What the customer is doing is not something we care about, and I suggest you consult the customs for the rest."
I frowned at Musk's attitude, but Aiden said nothing, and continued to take a vague photo from his arms and drop it on the table.
Seeing the space shuttle in this picture, Musk, who was not so good at this group of CIA agents, immediately sat up from his chair with interest, and moved forward a few points.
"this is?"
"Your customer, or future competitor. Its name is" Xiangrui ", and it sounds strange." Aiden shrugged and continued, "It is said that they use the latest electric propulsion system and we are investigating this matter."
"Wait, electricity?" Musk opened his mouth and glanced at the man standing in front of the desk with the same gaze as a fool. "Electric propulsion? Are you sure it is electric propulsion?"
"I'm sure," Aiden nodded. "Our sources of information are reliable, although not detailed ~ EbookFREE.me ~, shaking his head with a smile, Musk returned to the office chair.
A bit of an interesting look left in Hagihara's eyes, now it has become obvious ridicule.
"Sergeant Aiden, or an agent or a gentleman, although I don't quite understand the process of CIA case handling, but as a taxpayer, I sincerely recommend that you change to a more professional person to perform these tasks ... Electric propulsion? Use electric propulsion to send the space shuttle to the sky? "Musk shook his head with a smile." Even I can't brag about this. "
Aideng solemnly said, "Can't electric propulsion do?"
"Not possible," Musk asserted without hesitation. "Even if it is our most advanced electric propulsion technology, the thrust is on the order of N. And if we want the spacecraft to run from the ground to outer space orbit, at least It has to be on the order of KN! "
Aiden looked at the agent next to him.
The detective's lips moved.
"The people at NASA said the same thing ... could it be that we think too much?"
Aiden, who was lost in thought, looked dignified and didn't speak.
He would rather believe that he thinks more.
But the thought of Lu Zhou couldn't relax his nervousness ...
