Chapter 241 Traditional Arts(1/2)

When the two astronauts of the Star Pilot landed smoothly on the runway in the "Dart X" orbit shuttle and walked out of the terminal through the boarding bridge, they were treated like heroes.

The flash was flashing with a "happy" and the reporter reached forward with a "screaming" just to hear a word before the official press conference.

Unfortunately, everything has to be done according to the process, and neither of the astronauts will answer their questions separately.

However, those reporters could see a lot from the walking posture and facial expressions of the two astronauts.

For example, the astronauts have a calm body and a calm expression, and they don’t feel any discomfort when they come back from space.

Although they haven't been in space for a long time, this calm feeling...

Not like acting.

The reporters on the scene were all very lively.

"The Navigator Company is a real big deal this time."

"It seems that the comfort of the shuttle is really high. I wonder if there is no chance to sit in the name of interview promotion?"

"I want to go to space too, but unfortunately I can't afford a ticket. By the way, I heard they have a lottery, maybe I can give it a try."

"I have to find an opportunity to dig some real news. Maybe I can try to lurk in their company. After all, when I was upgraded to a formal reporter, the newspaper specially asked scouts to teach us lurking. Yes, I lurk in the grass outside. I don't know if it can be done, but it's worth a try."

Tang Chao didn't know that the newspapers are so powerful now that they actually asked scout teachers to train their reporters. In order to do news, they really used all kinds of tricks.

The two astronauts did not rest or did any inspections. The new cabin spacesuits they wore had vital sign recording systems, and all important parts of the body had sensing devices. The final data would be concentrated on the recording module on the chest.

These data will be reflected in real time on personal terminals and will be displayed in the command hall and medical center when performing various tasks. If an accident occurs, experts will tell them what to do at any time.

Of course, this distance should be relatively close. If it is too far, the communication delay will be too serious, the experts can only give some major suggestions. Real-time things can only be solved by the team doctor.

But those are not in a hurry. It’s so early. Now we will solve today’s press conference first.

The first manned flight mission was very successful, but Tang Chao said there were still some things to test, so there were probably several manned tests.

If this were an ordinary private space company, it would definitely not dare to play like this. After all, a manned spacecraft was launched at one time and it cost a lot of money to test it several times.

The pilots do not have such concerns. The total cost of manned tests is not as much as that of other companies at one time, so they can also try their best to test the limits of the shuttle and give future passengers a sense of security.

After three or five tests, enough tests should prove the safety of the shuttle. By then, the shuttle drivers and passengers should not have to wear helmets, and it is time for the shuttle to be officially commercialized.

The protagonists of the press conference were two private astronauts and Tang Chao, the big boss, especially Tang Chao. Although the two private astronauts have entered space, compared with Tang Chao, a big boss who has always been mysterious and has always appeared as a chief technology officer, it has a more topical sense.

After all, the previous space tourists could also be considered private astronauts in a sense, so the media does not value them much.

Or it doesn't care so much.

The reporter also asked them a lot of things, but did not ask Tang Chao much.

It is estimated that when they land on the moon as private astronauts, they will still be the first group of private astronauts to land on the moon. They will pay more attention to them. Now, Tang Chao, a decision-maker and technology provider, is the person they want to interview the most.

"Mr. Tang, will the 'Dart X' be converted into a space fighter?"

"Mr. Tang, what do you think about the current space situation? Will you take a cooperative relationship with Merecon?"

"Mr. Tang, do you think humans can fight aliens? If humans go to war with aliens, where do you feel like the first shot will be fired?"

"Mr. Tang, is your company's orbital shuttle for sale? If it is sold, please sell me one. The money is not a problem."

When everyone heard this, wow, which reporter from the company exclaimed so much?

Are you planning to attract attention and make news popular?

When I turned my head, I saw that the man was wearing a white robe and a white turban. The white turban was wrapped in black circles, and he also had a delicate and well-modified beard.

Oh, from the Oil Alliance, that's all right.

continue.

"Mr. Tang, I wonder what your company's future plans for space tourism are? Should we use orbital shuttles alone to develop the space tourism industry, or will we sell the entire orbital shuttle machine so that other space tourism companies can buy it and enter the comprehensive development of the space tourism industry?"

"Mr. Tang, how is the progress of your company's 'Star Inn' space station? When can we stay in a real commercial space hotel in space?"

The reporters' questions were the same as those of the Gatling machine gun. Of course, Tang Chao could not answer them all. He answered them with a question he felt good, especially the one in the Oil Alliance, and even answered them by name.

This is a big customer.

In order to get rid of its name of "only knowing how to sell oil", the Petroleum Alliance has been relying on the names of "City of Technology" and "City of Future" in recent years.

In order to get this name, there will definitely be no less investment in technology, but their country has few people and cannot support the systematic technology chain at all, so things like the Petroleum Alliance Mars rover appeared.

Basically, the oil alliance pays money, the Meriken produces technology and deep space measurement and control network, and the Sakura Country produces Rockets.

Although they exaggerated how much they participated and how many aerospace talents they had cultivated for the alliance with this plan, everyone knows what the actual situation is.

There are few people in the country, and there are no talents and funds to play with a complete aerospace system.

Of course, considering systematization, that is the allocation of big powers. With the current globalization state, some "small and exquisite countries" can only make a strategy of outstanding technology.

So how to say it, no matter what, the phenomenon of the oil alliance frantically embracing technology products in China has emerged.

So the world's largest high-tech buyers appeared, and they are definitely buyers who are willing to spend money.

Just then, Tang Chao talked about the operation of the orbital shuttle.

There are three in total.

The first is the newly established Interstellar Pioneer Space Tourism Department, which is specifically responsible for space tourism and will use the company's own orbital shuttle to start the real era of human space tourism.

The second is the sale of orbital shuttles, which sells standard versions of orbital shuttles, and there are no restrictions, and anyone can buy them.

The third is to train private astronauts and evaluate these people. After passing the assessment, you will be given a professional certificate to prove that you are a qualified orbital shuttle driver.

This business is more for private wealthy people and commercial aerospace companies. If they can train shuttle drivers, or if private wealthy people want to open orbital shuttles by themselves, they can train and get a certificate here.

In addition, the orbital shuttles for sale also provide modification services, which can be converted into luxury space yachts.

If the rich don’t plan to ride in full capacity, the track shuttle can be changed quite luxuriously.

Now Tang Chao's words are effective, because he is not only the chief technology officer of Star Navigator, but also the boss of the company.

When the reporters heard this news, they were shocked, and those who watched the live broadcast were even more shocked.

Especially other companies that are preparing to develop space tourism.

It’s okay for the company that wants to go in this direction, but most of them are happy, because compared with other planned manned equipment, the competitiveness of the track shuttle is undoubtedly the greatest. So if you want to develop in this regard, it is absolutely right to sell the track shuttle.

Companies that have completed their own research or are developing manned spacecraft are not in a good mood, because as soon as Tang Chao said this, their business in this regard was compensated.

There is no way, the manned space equipment of other companies is currently unable to compare with orbital shuttles.

The one who is in the heaviest mood here is several private aerospace companies in Meriken that have space tourism business. Not only are they, but even the official ones.

After Tang Chao said this, within five minutes, the owner of a private aerospace company was summoned to a secret online conference room by the Meriken Space Administration.

"Gentlemen, we must find a way to fight back!"

When everyone heard this, "Why is this sentence again? Have you said this sentence several times?"

A boss who has not developed a manned spacecraft but is preparing to enter the space tourism industry said: "Sir, I don't understand what you mean. The Navigator Company has said that there is no restriction on the sale of orbital shuttles. We can completely buy their orbital shuttles to develop our own space tourism."

"Our company is developing inflatable space capsules. We are confident that the cost of the space station is lower than them, and the space will be much larger than them. The huge space means we have more decoration options and more entertainment projects, so they will definitely not compete with us."

As soon as he finished speaking, the official said: "No, we must not buy their orbital shuttle. That is not a question of whether to fight back or not, but to admit defeat!"

"And they will definitely pretend to be spy equipment inside and find out about our space secrets. This is absolutely not allowed, so for our national security, we can never buy their orbital shuttles!"

“…”

Well, it's really an extremely traditional "crime".

This is probably because the Navigator refused to cooperate before, and then the official was hated by the official, but wasn’t this what the official did at the beginning?

Seeing Tianxia's overall condition getting better and better, they want to cooperate with the whole world, which is a super big market with serious capital. As a result, the official Meriken is in charge of things with a slightly higher technological content and will not be allowed to be sold.

However, the higher the technology content, the less sales it often is, because many countries with insufficient "level" cannot use those high-tech things at all.

Seeing that Tianxia's huge market has risen and the demand for high-tech things is very high, suppliers are screaming with their products. The Meriken official door closed with a "click" and blocked the suppliers' wealth.

High-tech product supplier: "???"

It is not enough to control suppliers in their own country, but even suppliers from other countries are controlled. Even those suppliers who started working with Tianxia a long time ago have to manage them.

After one order, the sales volume will be reduced by half.

The suppliers were all crazy and were joking.

But there is nothing they can do. They can't beat Meriken. They are not a super giant company in Cyberpunk, so they must follow Meriken's rules.

However, the bosses here did not expect that today's events were happening. They thought the opportunity to go through the track for a long time before they officially entered service, but they did not expect it would be so fast.

They suspect that it is most likely related to the alien affairs.

Just like a reporter asked "Will it be changed to a space fighter?", they can answer without Tang Chao's answer.

"Definitely!"

There is no need to consider this matter at all. All aliens are coming, and you can't help but not change it.

That comes from the fear of the unknown deep in human hearts. Once you encounter such a thing, all you can think of is to arm yourself first.

Hold the sword and put on armor, so that you will feel a little safe.

"Mr. Kuna, since that's the case, then hurry up and pass the reboot proposal of the single-stage orbiting vehicle of the "Adventure Star", funds, scientific researchers, supplies, etc. As long as these things are in place and combined with our current plan, we can improve it in a very short time."
