Chapter 298 Tickets worth 500 million

After the preliminary survey of Lin Qishan, everyone turned to the group business office next to them and began to discuss Lin Qishan's training costs, including training cycles, launch costs, space station work, etc.

Logging into the space station is a very important task. Every detail needs to be agreed upon, written in black and white to clarify rights and obligations, and avoid future disputes.

After all, rockets cannot guarantee 100% safety, and explosions or other accidents will also occur during launch. In general, astronauts are destined to be the realm of brave people!

Lin Qishan's determination is also very strong. He remembers that when he was a child, the teacher asked his classmates about their dreams of growing up. Scientists and astronauts appeared the most frequently.

Although the dream of being a new generation of children may be to become an internet celebrity, star or boss... Lin Qishan was born in that era when the child's dream was still simple!

Although most people cannot realize their dreams, this year of year of going to heaven and space will be diluted by reality and become childish!

But he has never been so close as today that he can't give up!

So Kajia told his obligations: "Once you receive training as an astronaut, please forget that you are a tourist. There are no tourists here, only astronauts. You will abide by the rules and regulations of the Russian Space Agency and participate in the work as a 'scientific research astronaut'!"

"Your task is: be responsible for using scientific research equipment on cabins to complete experimental plans and scientific research, and conduct statistical records of data phenomena; be responsible for the maintenance and repair of scientific research equipment, improve observation and measurement skills; be responsible for assisting astronauts and responding to medical first aid!"

If you have the opportunity to be an astronaut, who would want to be a simply tourist?

I have to stay up for six or seven days, and I keep floating and not doing anything, and I will definitely cause problems.

In particular, Kajia told him an easter egg: "If you perform well and if you need to perform extra-cabin activities under the permission of the space station mission program, if the commander and the engineer do not leave the cabin, then you will be responsible for the task, and of course you can choose to refuse!"

"I don't think anyone will refuse this!"

Lin Qishan said it with great certainty.

Kajia also smiled and nodded: "Yes! But we can't guarantee that there will be certainly. The specific details depend on the requirements of the task project. You can treat it as a gift that may come!"

Lin Qishan longed for: "Then I must expect it to come!"

If you can carry out space activities? That is really the pinnacle of life!

I couldn't help but think in my mind, sitting next to the space station, looking at the quiet blue planet leisurely, thinking quietly without interruption, how wonderful it would be!

However, these beautiful prospects require prerequisites. Kajia told him about his mission as a scientific astronaut: "The Space Administration will require you to master astronomy, space and atmospheric physics, meteorology, flight action mechanics, navigation and communication systems, rocket technology, control spacecraft and use its systems correctly, and other tasks for assessment!"

After all, theoretical study is still a big deal!

Lin Qishan, who had been abandoned for a long time in college, was inevitably a little nervous when he heard about astronomy, physics, meteorology... his ambitions were inevitable.

The key is what language is this? Moreover, everyone here speaks Russian, very few speak English, and some are also the jobs of tour guides and reception staff.

Regarding this question, Kajia also answered: "You must also master the basic Russian communication. In this regard, you can bring your own designated personnel or hire our staff. It is recommended that the latter be more convenient to connect with professional content in the aviation field."

Having said that, can Lin Qishan still let this enthusiastic little girl leave?

"I think you are very good. I will give you extra compensation as my Russian teacher and translator."

"Thank you for your generosity! I will serve you professionally!"

Kajia did not translate the extra rewards, because in terms of consciousness, this is an extension of the tip culture and the benefit she gained alone.

To be honest, before coming to Russia, Lin Qishan had long heard that there was corruption here. The poorer the easier it was to breed food and get rid of it! But it was just right for him to play, because money could solve the problem, which was the easiest for him!

Just like the director yesterday, after giving him a few bottles of good wine, this guy smiles every time he meets, and there is no rumor of the indifference of the Russians!

Kajia, who treats extra money employers more enthusiastically and carefully, continues to explain important matters one by one.

Lin Qishan needs to bear the rights and obligations, the work he needs to accept, the disclaimer clauses, the local laws and regulations that need to be followed, etc. I have been talking for a long time.

Finally, the fee was roughly calculated and agreed that Lin Qishan would need to pay a full-time fee of US$70 million, which would be a ticket priced at nearly 500 million!

However, the accompanying assistant discussed with the Russian company that before they officially obtained the quota for landing the spacecraft, they would pay a training fee of US$7 million until they were determined to allow Lin Qishan to get a seat in space. The remaining balance would not be paid.

Because I learned from the communication just now that he is not the only astronaut to land in space!

But the number of Rockets and tickets are limited.

Preparatory measures are to avoid emergencies. For example, when the rocket is about to be launched, but astronauts are absent due to various problems, they need to be on the bench and cannot waste any valuable seats!

The substitutes are also divided into No. 1,2,3, which can ensure that all astronauts are suddenly absent, and there are still people who can replace them. In fact, since Lin Qishan joined, he has also been considered a substitute!

There are many patrons like Lin Qishan, and the United States is typical. Their astronauts also pay high tickets to ride rockets, but they don’t need to train in Russia or queue up.

Those who need to queue are those small countries, who don’t have much space power but want to do experiments and tests, such as small island countries, and small countries in Europe.

They also sent astronauts for training, with varying lengths of cycles. Whoever passes the assessment first may be arranged to the nearby spacecraft. If there is no one on the wheel, they have to wait!

So if you want to go to heaven, you also need comprehensive strength and luck to line up to compete!

Most of these astronauts who came to train were elite figures selected by various countries, such as experts in the aerospace field, ace pilots of the Air Force, etc. None of them was bad!

But Lin Qishan signed without hesitation and officially participated in the competition for the aerospace team. He didn't think he would be much worse, and the plug-in gave him strong confidence!

Competing with a group of the most elite aerospace personnel on the planet? This has actually stimulated his competing spirit. The Chinese man with strong spirit is the one who is not afraid of the Heavenly King!

...

It took the team two days to deal with related matters.

Then Lin Qishan left only an assistant and translator, plus the hired Russian local translator. The rest of the staff returned home first, continued his work team's daily life, and traveled between the two countries regularly to assist him.

Lin Qishan stayed at the Ritz Hotel. Although Aerospace City also provides accommodation, the conditions are naturally not as comfortable as luxury hotels. After all, as a billionaire, what he should enjoy is not left behind!

In addition to enjoying the prosperity, his training content has also begun. Theories and practices are synchronized. Practical practices are divided into three parts: routine training, specific plan training, and specific task occupant training.

The training currently carried out is mainly about physical fitness. Whether it is the high G value of the centrifuge, the rotating chair for the vestibular exercise, or the physical fitness assessment, Lin Qishan is outstanding.

What he has a shortcoming is cultural courses, and his language makes him easy to learn. Maybe the teacher is a beautiful girl and can speak fluent Chinese. Teaching him step by step to listen, speak, read and write often makes people focus more easily.

This is also the highlight of Lin Qishan's boring learning. Language learning is also very fast because of the bonus of systematic skills, but cultural courses are really a severely affected area.

I have been wasted for more than ten years in my previous life and have not studied hard in this life. I am too lazy to go to college. Now I have to pick up these piles of books again... It’s really not easy to be an astronaut!
