Today's satellite launches have long entered the assembly line launch mode. Except for manned spaceflight, all satellite launches basically follow an assembly line step. The company or unit responsible for the launch is only responsible for everything about the launch vehicle itself, and formulates
After making a good launch plan and formulating the launch target orbit, assemble the rocket, fill it with fuel, and then load the satellite to be launched into the top satellite fairing. The launch is basically ready, and it is far less cumbersome than before.
.
Zhang Wenhao prefers to adopt the launch mode of one rocket and multiple satellites. However, with current launch vehicles, although one rocket and multiple satellites is theoretically feasible, it has very strict requirements on the volume and weight of the satellite and the launch orbit of the satellite. Dongchen’s positioning
It is not applicable to satellites. Therefore, based on the current technology, even if the United States launches on behalf of Dongchen, it can only send one satellite to the orbit one by one.
The news that Dongchen's positioning satellite will be launched for the first time at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Base was not deliberately concealed, so the whole world also knew the news that Dongchen was going to build its own positioning system. However, no one knew about Dongchen's launch this time.
What kind of positioning system is it? After the satellite is launched, if Dongchen does not open the terminal, no one will be able to figure out the specific performance of this system.
Zhang Wenhao’s plan is to disclose the specific parameters of the Dongchen positioning system to the public after all satellites have been launched and the entire system has been successfully operated. After all, launches involve multiple countries taking turns to find suitable launch windows around the world. According to the current trend, Zhang Wenhao
A positioning system covering the entire territory of China can be built within a week. If the parameters of the satellite are exposed too early at this time, I am afraid that Western countries will be unwilling to continue launching for Dongchen. However, if they have all launched
, and then knowing how incredible Dongchen’s positioning system was, even if they regretted it, it would not have any real effect.
Zhang Wenhao went to Jiuquan in person and watched Dongchen's positioning satellite being installed into the satellite fairing. Dongchen also left a dedicated person to take care of the whole process. After the fairing was closed, no one could open the fairing before launch.
Officer Liu also arrived in Jiuquan to witness Dongchen's launch. In addition, Zhang Wenhao was surprised that his future mother-in-law Nie Minhui actually came with Su Ruoran, and many of Dongchen's senior leaders,
Including Long Xiaoyue and Zhang Wenhao's cousin Zhang Ranran also came to Jiuquan together.
For Dongchen's senior management, they don't know what is unique about the satellite launched by Dongchen this time. However, to them, this is the first satellite launched by Dongchen. This can be said to be
It is of great historical significance. After all, most companies are unlikely to have the opportunity and qualifications to launch a satellite that belongs entirely to them. However, Dongchen actually wants to launch more than 30 satellites at a time. Others
Speaking of private enterprises, not even any country in the world can achieve such a launch density. It can be said that Dongchen has gathered the power of the world to build Dongchen's own stereotaxic system for Dongchen.
Everyone present was full of excitement and excitement. Even Su Ruoran was full of joy. Launching the satellite was undoubtedly another great achievement for Zhang Wenhao. For her, being able to see her boyfriend do such a thing
It was a feat that was unprecedented and unprecedented, so she was naturally extremely excited.
While congratulating Zhang Wenhao, Nie Minhui shook her head and expressed confusion, saying: "I really don't understand why you suddenly want to develop a satellite positioning system. The current functions of GPS are already sufficient, and it is still very popular around the world. Even
Beidou is much weaker than GPS in the commercial operation market. If you spend so much money to build this system, I feel it is a waste of resources."
Zhang Wenhao said with a smile: "Everyone always feels that the current technological development has been very powerful, and there seems to be no room for progress. Everything in front of us seems to be perfect. However, society is always making progress, and it seems perfect.
Technology will reveal its real shortcomings at a certain point, and people are always dissatisfied, which is why technology is always moving forward."
Nie Minhui nodded and smiled, saying: "That's a good point. Aunt Nie, I very much hope that you can lead a comprehensive innovation again. Perhaps in the future, satellite positioning will no longer be an area, but a point. I
Standing here, you are standing opposite me, and satellite positioning can clearly position the two of us as two different points, instead of being in the same area."
Zhang Wenhao said to herself that as her future mother-in-law, she was indeed very discerning in seeing things. She had almost hit the mark on the biggest feature of Dongchen's stereotaxic system: its astonishingly high accuracy.
Moreover, it is even much higher than what Nie Minhui said. When used indoors, the positioning accuracy may be slightly reduced. However, if used outdoors, the positioning accuracy is less than one millimeter. Even if the mobile phone is thrown away,
The positioning system can draw an accurate parabola. This is the biggest advantage of stereo navigation. This will definitely shock the whole world.
The launch time was scheduled for ten o'clock that morning, and the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Base had to add many guest seats in the launch control center to accommodate Dongchen members, friends and relatives for on-site viewing.
From the huge screen, everyone can see that the rocket has been fueled and the fuel pipe has been withdrawn. The Long March 3A carrier rocket on the launcher is still fixed by the launcher from both sides at this moment, but
, twenty minutes before launch, the fixing bracket came off!
The entire rocket stood alone on the launch pad, the staff also began to evacuate, and the launch entered the final countdown stage.
Everyone stared at the screen with excitement, without blinking. Ten minutes later, the launch commander announced that the countdown had entered the last ten minutes, and everyone's nerves became even more tense.
At this time, Director Liu's cell phone vibrated. He quickly got up and went out to answer a call.
Two minutes later, Officer Liu returned to the control center. The first thing he did was to find Zhang Wenhao and whispered a few words in Zhang Wenhao's ear that made Zhang Wenhao's blood boil.
"I just received news that Airbus is filing for bankruptcy protection. However, this bankruptcy protection is just a prelude. The Europeans hope to take advantage of the buffer period of bankruptcy protection to negotiate mergers and share swaps with Boeing."
Zhang Wenhao was overjoyed. This was a sign that Airbus could no longer sustain it. However, there was a problem. Airbus actually tried to find opportunities from Boeing.
The Europeans' thinking is very simple. The current Airbus can no longer support it. One more day will consume a huge cost. Dongchen has been unable to attack for a long time. Airbus has basically lost its living space. However,
Europeans also want to minimize losses. All Airbus assets are sold to society at scrap metal prices. However, selling them to Boeing has a different meaning. Some of Airbus's own unique technologies, its software and hardware, are actually
It is comparable to Boeing. If Boeing can get Airbus's plate, it will be a huge opportunity for Boeing.
For Airbus, everything they have has a certain value only to Boeing. Therefore, they hope to use share swap to sell Airbus to Boeing. In fact, it is nothing more than Airbus and Boeing.
Join Boeing, and then, now Airbus, get a certain share of Boeing. In this way, although they sell Airbus, they become shareholders of Boeing, and their losses can be minimized.
This is a dangerous signal for Zhang Wenhao. That guy Raymond, after receiving Dongchen's money, drastically increased production capacity. Almost all of his cash flow has been invested in expansion. If he is allowed to acquire Airbus
, He can't do it. Even if Airbus's market value is 10%, he can't come up with that much money. However, if the shares are exchanged, Raymond can merge Airbus without spending a penny and only sacrifice a small part of the shares.
If they agree to join Boeing, Zhang Wenhao will really suffer a big loss. Everything he has worked hard on has become Boeing's wedding dress. This is equivalent to A and B both opening restaurants, and A's hotel is very profitable.
, B’s hotel has been losing money, but A has invested all his money in another new store. In this case, B wants to sell out, and A cannot afford it, but A and B can merge
To solve this problem, B no longer wants its own store and merges its store into A's two stores. Although B's store can account for at least one-third of the three stores after the merger, A
He would definitely not be so kind, maybe give B 10-20 shares and send B away.
Thinking of this, Zhang Wenhao whispered to Director Liu: "Airbus is looking for a way out now, and that guy Raymond will never let go of such a good opportunity. If the two of them are allowed to talk, I'm afraid it won't be long before they can
When it comes to mergers and acquisitions, one of them intends to sell and the other intends to buy. All the problems are nothing more than asset evaluation and how many points Boeing will transfer the shares after the merger."
Director Liu nodded and said: "The key is that Airbus doesn't know that you have thoughts about them. They think that no one in the world wants them except Boeing, so they can only find Boeing as their mortal enemy."
Zhang Wenhao smiled and said: "This is easy to handle. You can help me find a way to secretly meet with the senior executives of Airbus and the European Aeronautical Defense and Space Corporation. The meeting place cannot be in France, Europe, or China.
, let’s choose an insensitive third-party country to meet.”
Officer Liu asked: "Where are you going to arrange it?"
Zhang Wenhao thought for a while and said: "Let's choose Queensland, Australia. Both parties must maintain an absolute low profile and must not expose their whereabouts, let alone their intentions to meet."
Director Liu said: "The people at Airbus hate you so much. If it weren't for you, they wouldn't die. So, if you ask them to meet, will they agree?"
Zhang Wenhao said with a smile: "They are mortal enemies with Boeing. Now they have chosen to negotiate mergers and acquisitions and share swaps with Boeing. This shows that what they value in their hearts is not their integrity, but their interests. Just tell them that Dongchen can give them Boeing
A price that can never be afforded, so they will definitely not refuse.”
Director Liu nodded and said: "I will wait a few more minutes. After the rocket is launched, I will immediately call the ambassador in France and ask him to help convey the information to the top management of Airbus and European Aerospace Defense and Space Corporation through special channels.
"
"Okay." Zhang Wenhao smiled slightly and said: "As long as we intervene before they have concluded the negotiation, Boeing will not be able to acquire Airbus. They have no cash, just a few shares. For Europeans, it will still be Money is more important. Besides, I can even buy them at the previous market price of Airbus, which is equivalent to them not losing anything at all. This is something that Raymond can't do, only I can."
Officer Liu couldn't help but smile and said: "You guys are really very thoughtful in your calculations. Okay, I will help you with this matter today!"
Zhang Wenhao nodded slightly and felt relieved. At this moment, there were only less than five minutes before the launch.
"Countdown to the last five minutes, all parties will report the situation." The commander-in-chief said to the communication system.
"The weather is good and the launch is possible."
"Everything is normal with the launch vehicle and can be launched."
"The fueling has been completed, it is confirmed, and it is ready for launch."
"The ground detection platform has been prepared and can be launched."
"Everything on the launch pad is normal and can be launched."
"Everything is normal in the control center and can be launched."
All links are normal, and the time has entered the last minute countdown.
Including Zhang Wenhao, everyone waited with bated breath for the moment of ignition and launch, thirty seconds, twenty seconds.
The launch commander said: "Attention all departments, the ten-second countdown has begun!"
"Ten, nine, eight, seven!"
"Four, three, two, one, zero, launch!"
On the big screen, thick tongues of flames emerged from the bottom of the launch vehicle. The rocket slowly rose and gradually left the launch pad, and the tracking camera also tracked and followed the rocket all the way up.
Subsequently, the rocket began to perform the first attitude adjustment, the second attitude adjustment, the booster rocket detached, the first stage rocket detached, and the second stage rocket detached.
The ground monitoring stations along the rocket launch path are also constantly tracking the satellites. All conditions of the rocket are very normal.
After a long time, the last stage of the Long March 3A rocket was ignited, sending the satellite into the predetermined orbit in one go. Then, the satellite fairing separated and the satellite entered the orbit.
The commander-in-chief said excitedly: "The launch mission was a complete success!"
Yes, a complete success! A burst of cheers erupted from the scene, and the rest is Dongchen’s own business.
Xiaoer used the remote connection to the ground equipment in Jiangcheng to control the satellite in real time. The satellite entered the orbit, turned on the solar panels, entered the working state, and ran perfectly! (To be continued.
