Mr. Wu, we see that your company seems to have recruited a lot of technical talents in manned spaceflight. Does this mean that you are already engaged in technical research on manned spaceflight? One of the male doctoral students wearing glasses asked him a question. What do you call your classmates? Wu Hao asked with a smile on his face.
Wei Dongqing! The male doctor was stunned for a moment and then replied.
Wei Dongqing, what a great name! Wu Hao smiled and praised, then nodded and said: "Yes, we have recruited many technical talents in the field of manned spaceflight, and have also begun technical research in manned spaceflight.
There is nothing surprising about this, and there is nothing to hide. In fact, when we started the aerospace project, manned spaceflight was also included in the plan. This is the only way for our aerospace development.
Moreover, the development prospects of manned spaceflight are very broad, and it is the basis for a series of deep space exploration projects. Although artificial intelligence and remote control technology are becoming more and more advanced, it is still impossible to replace the role of humans.
For us, if we want to develop subsequent deep space exploration projects, manned spaceflight cannot be bypassed. "
But the country also has mature manned space technology in this area. If you continue to do it, are you duplicating it and wasting resources? This Wei Dongqing is somewhat more sincere.
Wu Hao smiled and shook his head: "Countries also have launch vehicles, why don't we just do it?
What the country has belongs to the country, and what we have belongs to us. There is no conflict between the two. And precisely because it belongs to the country, there are many restrictions and it is very inconvenient for commercial operations. However, commercial manned spacecraft do not have this concern.
In addition, for our country's aerospace industry, if there are two types of manned spacecraft, then the choice space will be wider, why not. "
So is your spacecraft experiment in August a manned spacecraft? Wei Dongqing took the opportunity to ask.
Wu Hao heard this and looked at him with a smile and scolded: "Slippery, you are beating around the bush just to get some information from me."
Ha ha ha ha……
Everyone else present laughed when they heard this. The female doctor who had been talking before said coquettishly to Wu Hao: "Mr. Wu, just tell us. This opportunity is very rare. Please tell us more." One lecture, let’s learn more.”
Yes, I won’t do it if I don’t say it. Wu Hao smiled bitterly, and then continued to talk to everyone: "No, manned spaceflight is a very complex project. We have not yet reached the actual test stage, and it will take some time.
As for the spacecraft in July and August, it is actually related to manned spaceflight, but it is another technology. "
Another technology? Everyone couldn't help but become curious.
Yes, another technology, but it has yet to be tested. I don’t know if it can be successful. Wu Hao smiled and nodded.
Can you tell us what kind of technology it is? The female doctor asked the most.
Xiaolan! Chen Zhihong reminded: "I'm curious again. This kind of business secret can be inquired about casually."
As he was talking, Chen Zhihong looked at Wu Hao and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Xiao Wu, this girl is too curious. You think this is a classroom."
Haha, nothing. Wu Hao smiled, shook his head, and smiled at the female doctor.
This female doctor is called Zhu Xiaolan, and she is considered the most doting among Chen Zhihong's students, so she stays by her side wherever she goes. Of course, she is also the smartest among Chen Zhihong's students, has the best grades, and is Chen Zhihong's favorite.
Therefore, Wu Hao was more interested in her and hoped to "attract" her to the company, so naturally he would not blame her for anything. Besides, it's just a few problems in itself, and it doesn't matter to him.
It’s really hard to answer your question, at least not yet. However, I am here to invite you, and all of you, to come and watch the rocket launch in July and August.
Really, thank you Mr. Wu! Not only Zhu Xiaolan, but everyone else also thanked him profusely.
Mr. Wu, the launch in August used a retractable rocket, right? Wei Dongqing asked him.
That's right, Wu Hao nodded and said: "All launch missions this year after this launch will be carried out using retractable rockets."
Oh, what about this ultra-low-cost rocket? Are you not planning to launch it again? Chen Zhihong asked Wu Hao.
No, the launch mission will still be carried out. After all, for some special launch missions, the first stage body of the rocket cannot be recovered. Moreover, the carrying capacity of this ultra-low-cost rocket is much stronger than that of our Jianmu-2 retractable rocket. If you encounter some large-payload spacecraft or multi-payload missions, you will still choose this ultra-low-cost launch vehicle. Wu Hao explained to everyone.
After hearing what he said, everyone nodded immediately. This is indeed the case. In terms of cost control, no matter how low the launch cost of this ultra-low-cost launch vehicle is, it cannot compare with this retractable rocket. Therefore, considering this aspect, retractable rockets are the main direction of future development.
Mr. Wu, would you like to talk about deep space exploration? We are all very interested in this aspect. Now the United States is planning to establish a permanent scientific research base on the moon, and our country has a similar plan.
What about you? Do you also have such a plan? Zhu Xiaolan asked Wu Hao.
Wu Hao smiled and nodded when he heard this: "Yes, we are also always paying attention to the current real-time information in the country's aerospace field.
We are also very interested in this kind of scientific research base that can stay on the moon for a long time.
However, we must be a commercial company, and the first thing we must consider is the feasibility of this project and whether it has commercial value.
We must go through it, and we also need to eat. "
After hearing what he said, everyone nodded to express their understanding. Indeed, this is the biggest difference between private aerospace, commercial aerospace, and government-led aerospace projects.
After gathering a large number of people, Wu Hao said with a smile: "But don't worry, the commercial value of this project is still very high.
The first is the value of scientific research. In this regard, we can cooperate with many scientific research institutions, including technology companies and science funds, and let them invest or fund projects in this area.
For example, we can build such a scientific research base and allow relevant scientists to conduct work experiments there for a fee.
Of course, we can also accept relevant tourists to go there for entertainment, stay and experience, etc.
At the same time, the moon itself also has many rich resources, such as the well-known helium 3, which has very considerable value.
If we establish a scientific research base, we can definitely establish such a mining area. "
