Stepping into the universe is no longer a dream, but something that can be achieved.
However, the things happening in the outside world have not affected Jiang Cheng. He is now discussing things with his CEO.
Ji Su plans to launch a new business for the company, an external service business.
Zhang Manlin was sitting in Jiang Cheng's office, listening to Jiang Cheng explain the business.
Boss, are you planning to provide satellite launch services to other companies? That is, we can help others launch commercial satellites and then charge some launch fees,
After listening to Jiang Cheng's explanation, Zhang Manlin quickly understood what Jiang Cheng wanted to do.
It turned out that Jiang Cheng was planning to make money from the Peng-type rocket and thus recover some of the research funds.
You should know that Jiang Cheng invested more than ten billion yuan to research the Peng-type rocket.
If he doesn't make back the money, Jiang Cheng will be unable to sleep.
Jiang Cheng certainly would not sell the Peng-type rocket, as it was something that needed to be kept confidential.
Since the rockets cannot be sold, there is only one way to make money.
That is to help others launch satellites and then make money by charging launch fees.
Simply put, this is a kind of satellite launch service, which is a business of helping others launch satellites.
Strictly speaking, this is also a service business, but it is a more high-end one.
Of course, it is the satellite launch service. I am ready to openly undertake commercial satellite launch services to the outside world. I think our service will definitely make money.
After hearing Zhang Manlin's question, Jiang Cheng confirmed it with her again to let his CEO understand his thoughts.
After Zhang Manlin understood what Jiang Cheng wanted to do, she did not immediately agree with his idea.
Instead, he asked uncertainly: "Is it too early to start this business now? Should we prepare for it for a while?"
Moreover, our company has never been involved in this kind of business before. We have no idea where to start if we rush into it. We have never been involved in this field before.
Although Zhang Manlin understood what Jiang Cheng wanted to do, she still found it hard to accept.
As the person in charge of Jiang Cheng, she was of course very clear about the previous rocket launch experiment.
The performance of the rocket is excellent, and she has more or less some understanding of it.
It is indeed a good idea to use the Wanglu rocket to help others launch satellites and make money.
But she felt that it was a bit too fast to start this kind of business now.
They have just successfully launched a rocket and are about to start business in this area. Zhang Manlin feels that Jiang Cheng is a little too anxious.
She felt that it would be better to wait until she had done a few more experiments before opening the business to the public.
Otherwise, if their company took over someone else's launch business and failed on the first try, it would also be a loss to the reputation of the Universe Umbrella Group.
There was nothing wrong with Zhang Manlin's idea. The commercial satellite launch business has always been controlled by a few Apple companies.
It is still very difficult for Jiang Cheng to get involved. Such a high-end industry is not something you can enter just because you want to.
If you start such a high-end business without relevant resources, you will probably encounter a lot of trouble.
What Zhang Manlin meant was to accumulate some experience first and then start commercial satellite launch business after a few years.
But Jiang Cheng can't wait that long, and he is very confident in his rocket and will definitely be able to seize the initiative in this industry.
"I am also very clear about the issues you are worried about. You only consider the company's operations, but not the technical issues. You don't understand how excellent the Peng I rocket is.
The advantages of our rockets are so great that other companies' rockets are no match to ours. As long as we launch this business, other companies will not be able to compete with us.
Jiang Cheng spoke up to dispel Zhang Manlin's concerns and allowed her to arrange the relevant matters with peace of mind.
Zhang Manlin was quickly convinced by Jiang Cheng. After all, she didn't know much about technical matters. She was good at company management, not technical matters.
Now that Jiang Cheng has said so, this must be feasible. Zhang Manlin still trusts Jiang Cheng when it comes to technical matters because he has never made any technical mistakes.
"I really don't know much about this business. I have never been involved in such a high-end service industry. I am afraid I still need to understand the situation before I can help you develop a relevant plan.
However, Zhang Manlin did not discuss this matter with Jiang Cheng immediately. She still needed to investigate some relevant information before she could start this business.
For an industry that she doesn't understand, Zhang Manlin needs a lot of preparation. She is the kind of person who makes decisions after careful consideration.
Satellite launch service sounds very high-end, but in essence it is also a service industry.
This is just a high-end clothing industry, and ordinary people can't afford it.
If a company wants to launch a commercial satellite, it will be a very troublesome thing.
Most people are not like Jiang Cheng who can ask the Guo family for help, build satellites by himself, and solve all problems by himself.
If you want to own a private satellite, you first have to spend a lot of money to customize the satellite you want.
But having a satellite is not enough, you also need to find someone to help you launch the satellite into space so that the satellite can operate smoothly.
Launching a satellite requires a carrier rocket, which is extremely expensive, and this is a huge expense.
Therefore, the companies that can afford satellites are generally large international companies. Small companies cannot afford such high-end stuff.
Currently, only a few companies can carry out commercial satellite launch business in the world.
The Yan State government is also conducting commercial satellite launches, but it has not been carried out on a large scale. Although it seems that there are several companies that can launch satellites, the cost of commercial satellite launches is very high regardless of which company it is.
Generally speaking, it costs more than 50 million US dollars to send a satellite into space, which is simply like robbing money.
But the price is not expensive at all, and we can’t make much money by helping you launch satellites.
The main reason is that the manufacturing cost of the rocket is too high, so the price is so expensive.
Moreover, these 50 million US dollars only help you launch once and cannot guarantee a successful launch.
You spent 50 million dollars to launch a rocket, but in the end you still can't guarantee that your satellite can get into space.
If the rocket launch fails, you can only blame yourself.
The launch company will not compensate you for anything at all, you can only bear the losses yourself.
Moreover, the success rate of rocket launches has never been very high, and there are always several launch failures every year.
