The Light of Domestic Products: The whole world begs me to sell

"Even, I don't know what kind of weight this satellite will reach. Can our rocket really send it up? Can our rocket's carrying space really hold such a big guy?"

Hu Lai was taken aback for a moment, he actually forgot about the rocket thrust.

After a while.

Pang Dalong, the person in charge of the "Zero Space" rocket company who attended the meeting, took over the conversation.

"At present, our mature 'Clipper' series of launch vehicles can carry up to 1.4 tons of satellites into the sky, but the volume should not be too large."

"1.4 tons is too far away!"

"According to Mr. Hu, it is estimated that 20 tons will be unstoppable."

Hearing Zhou Damin's voice, Pang Dalong smiled wryly and shook his head.

20 tons?
A rocket with a carrying capacity of 20 tons in low-earth orbit is already a heavy-duty launch vehicle, not to mention "zero-degree space". In China, only the national team's heavy-duty rocket, the Long March [-], has this capability.

Moreover, how much would it cost to launch such a heavy launch vehicle!

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Damin continued:

"Boss, besides the launch vehicle, there is another issue to consider."

"The giant phased array antenna satellite you mentioned is not only huge in size, but also has too much power!"

"If it is used in a low-earth orbit of 500 kilometers, it will definitely be insignificant, and it will even cause strong interference to electronic equipment on the ground."

"My idea is that if we apply it in low-Earth orbit, the power can be appropriately reduced, so that the size of the satellite will be reduced and the difficulty of launching will also be reduced."

Hu Lai was lost in thought.

From his heart, he must very much hope to launch such a super-powerful phased array satellite.

But in reality, a professional like Zhou Damin thinks more comprehensively.

Moreover, at this time, he also remembered the technical description of the "ultra-high-power giant phased array satellite" in the series.

The technical description says that it can be used for interplanetary communication between 50 kilometers. If it is only a 500-kilometer near-Earth transmission, it is really unnecessary.

After thinking for a moment, Hu Lai nodded and said:

"The power can be reduced, but it must realize the direct connection between the mobile phone and the satellite, as well as the broadband Internet service!"

Zhou Damin nodded, and then expressed all his concerns.

"Mr. Hu, other than that."

"The phased array antenna satellite technology is now considered to be the top technology in the world. The production cost of its satellite is extremely high. Even after the power is reduced, the cost of a satellite is estimated to be no less than one billion."

"Moreover, at present, our satellite team does not have much research on phased array antenna satellites, and there are very few domestic and international materials. It may be difficult to achieve technological breakthroughs in a year and a half."

Hu Lai's expression froze, he wasn't worried about technical problems at all.

But he really didn't expect a phased array satellite to be so expensive.

As a near-Earth communication satellite, if you want to achieve global coverage, it is naturally impossible to be a satellite. Dozens or hundreds of satellites are needed to form a network to achieve regional coverage!
Hundreds of them, that's an investment close to [-] billion!

But at this time, Hu Lai is not as worried about commercialization as before. He is determined to achieve global leadership in the field of mobile phones and achieve dimensionality reduction.

He waved his hand bluntly and said:
"I've decided not to say much."

"Technically, the research institute has recently developed some high-power phased array satellites. You can refer to them."

"And there is no need to worry about the cost, the group will fully support the research and development of the satellite project!"

"Anyway, I'm definitely going to see a phone in the 'Super 2' series next year that does satellite direct calls!"

"Uh... good... good!"

Hu Lai forcefully arranged Zhou Damin's work, ignored the surprised eyes of everyone present, and then looked at Pang Dalong.

Zhou Damin's words just now reminded him of the short version of the Phoenix Group's current rocket launch.

To be honest, why is SpaeaX's "Starlink Project" so strong?

The fundamental reason is not how powerful their "Starlink satellites" are, but that the recyclable technology of the Falcon rocket is too strong, which greatly reduces the cost of satellite launches!

What worries Hu Lai the most is that not only is the cost of the Falcon rocket low, but the launch capability of SpaecX is also the number one in the world!

You read that right, the rocket company of SpaecX, a private enterprise, has the highest carrying capacity in the world!

The Falcon 63.8 heavy-duty rocket is currently the rocket with the strongest carrying capacity in the world, with a low-earth orbit capacity of 25 tons, far exceeding the [-]-ton carrying capacity of the Yanguo Long March [-]!

And what about "Zero Space" under the Phoenix Group?

With a load of less than 1.5 tons, it is only three stars in one shot to transport a satellite of only 500KG such as the "Viewing Series" at one time!
save costs?

think too much!
"Dalong, the research institute has also made some breakthroughs in rocket engine technology, and I will share some results with you later."

"Next, you will start to expand the scale of the rocket department and recruit professional talents in the rocket industry around the world. I am going to increase the investment in the rocket department!"

After arranging all this, Hu Lai finally felt more at ease.

Under his personal promotion, a project team led by the Phoenix Satellite Department was formally established, and the chip department, mobile phone department, and software department all recruited key members to join it.

Phoenix Group's "High Power Phased Array Satellite" project officially approved!
However, due to the influence of Li Meng's spies, Hu Lai was more cautious this time.

The entire project was subcontracted into sub-projects. Except for the top-level core technical director, even the middle-level cadres didn't even know what the name of the project was!
After Hu Lai sorted out the satellite project, the focus fell on "rocket technology".

However, because the credits in the satellite technology system purchased before were only 1000 million, I had to choose a relatively conservative rocket engine technology.

"SV - small liquid oxygen kerosene engine."

The thrust of the engine reaches 120 tons, and the low-earth orbit carrying capacity is 7 tons, which is a huge improvement for the zero-degree space!

……

Just as Hu Lai was seriously working on the satellite and rocket projects, the news of the joint cooperation between Hongguo and SpaecX was still fermenting.

However, the first good news is Huawei mata 50!

Due to the stimulation of the "Beidou short message" function, Huawei mata 50 has been out of stock online for a week. According to related reports, Huawei has urgently started to increase orders from OEMs.

You know, such a situation is very rare in the current mobile phone market!

The unexpected sales volume shocked all mobile phone manufacturers, and they never thought that mobile phone satellite technology would have such a strong market.

and!

Now just the "short message function" is so popular, and Huawei's launch of short message is so popular!
If Hongguo can really achieve voice communication between mobile phones and satellites next year, wouldn’t it be another massacre of Hongguo against the domestic Android camp?

Who is spared?

Thinking of this, all mobile phone manufacturers can't sit still, this matter can't wait any longer, if necessary, start research and development immediately!
We must find a way to keep up with Hongguo's progress!

However, when domestic mobile phone manufacturers summoned technicians to seriously study the "direct connection between mobile phone and satellite" technology, they realized that it was too difficult!

Not to mention "satellite voice communication", even the "Beidou short message" function can not be realized in a month or two, at least it will take several months of debugging!
Moreover, with the understanding of the satellite industry, all mobile phone manufacturers are becoming more and more desperate.

The "short message" function can be solved with the Beidou satellite, but what about the "satellite voice function" that Hongguo revealed next?
It is obviously impossible for a mobile phone company to launch satellites and engage in communications by itself!
Hongguo is so awesome that it wants to cooperate with the professional SpaecX in satellite business, so all mobile phone manufacturers began to contact domestic commercial satellite communication companies immediately, but they were all desperate after contacting them.

Sorry, there are, but the scale is not large, and the application scenario is not the interconnection of mobile phones and satellites.

There is no way, a group of mobile phone manufacturers can only turn their attention to foreign communication operators.

At this time, all mobile phone manufacturers finally felt the great pressure.

No, not stress.

It should be said that the entire Yan country mobile phone industry has felt a major crisis!

Once the "Satellite Voice Communication" is really installed on the mobile phone of Hongguo 15 next year, it is no exaggeration to say that it will definitely have a huge impact on the high-end mobile phones of all brands in Yanguo!

Others have it, but you don't!

Just seize this point and attack vigorously!
At this time, all the manufacturers also understood that this time their opponents are not only Hongguo Mobile, but also the SpaecX company behind it!

With the combination of the two forces, they happened to attack the weakest commercial satellite communication field in Yan Kingdom!

Gradually, the entire domestic mobile phone industry has become dejected, and everyone is beginning to realize that this may be another moment for the red fruit to take off!

Hey……!
……

Time flies, one month later.

During this period of time, the domestic mobile phone market seemed to be calm, and the sales of mata 50 continued to dominate the list. In fact, major manufacturers are secretly paying attention to the changes in the sales of the entire industry.

Unsurprisingly, because Hu Lai had authorized BYD for the "semi-solid mobile phone lithium battery" before, BYD can start selling "semi-solid mobile phone lithium battery" to domestic manufacturers.

The new batch of mata 50 has successfully launched a new version of "short message" + "semi-solid lithium battery" mobile phone, which is no different from Phoenix "Super" mobile phone in terms of hardware performance, and the sales volume is ushering in a huge explosion.

What all mobile phone manufacturers are most concerned about is the sales change after the launch of the "satellite short message" function of Hongguo 14.

Without any surprise, the Hongguo 14 mobile phone, which urgently launched the "satellite short message" function, has successfully reached the top of the storm by virtue of its stronger than mata 50, which can realize the short message sending and receiving function, and a large number of news reports are overwhelming.

of course.

The most affected is the Phoenix Group's "Super" series.

Without the exclusive technology of "semi-solid mobile phone lithium battery", the only advantage of the Super series is the software advantage. With the release of the "short message" function of Hongguo 14, sales directly fell.

Unexpectedly, after the third day, not only the Phoenix "Super" series was affected, but even the popular Huawei mata 50 sales also declined!
Huge worries instantly appeared in the hearts of all domestic mobile phone manufacturers.

If Huawei's new phone is like this, how can other phones not be affected?
……

Across the ocean.

There was a burst of hearty laughter in the Hongguo CEO's office.

"Boss, absolutely good news!"

"The news came back from the Yanguo market that our latest Hongguo 14 has just been launched in Yanguo for three days, and the sales have finally shown a rapid growth!"

"This time, we finally turned around. Not only did the sales of Huawei mata 50 suffer, but the most important thing is that the sales of our rival Phoenix 'Super' mobile phone fell sharply for the first time!"

The one who spoke was Kaili from Global Business. He is very familiar with Yan Country's business and has always attached great importance to Phoenix Group.

Cook didn't seem so excited, and leaned on the office chair with a relaxed face.

"Carrie, this is just the beginning."

"I have already felt the trend of the mobile phone market in the future. After the smartphone industry has undergone so many changes, the future trend will inevitably shift to mobile satellite communications."

"Once our Hongguo 15 is launched on the market, it will truly monopolize the 'satellite voice for mobile phone' outlet. I am very confident that Hongguo will have another glory of Hongguo 6S!"

"I agree with you!"

Carey smiled and said:

"As long as we cooperate with SpaecX, we have an absolute advantage in this field, don't we?"

Cook smiled loudly.

Since he decided to cooperate with SpeacX, Hongguo has indeed had an absolute advantage in the field of mobile satellites.

but……

Cook didn't allow himself to continue thinking, and turned to look at Carey.

"Kayli, I heard that several mobile phone manufacturers in Yanguo have been in contact with Ericsson and Motorola recently. Have you paid attention to their situation?"

Seeing that Cook changed the topic, Carey hurriedly said:

"Yes, there are indeed several mobile phone companies in Yanguo who are in contact with Motorola, hoping to use Motorola's Iridium network."

"You are also aware of the domestic situation in Yan Kingdom. They do not have a real commercial satellite communication company, and there is nothing in the field of commercial low-orbit communication satellites!"

"In a short while, the mobile phone manufacturers in Yan Country will not be able to find a suitable communication satellite company to cooperate with, so they are very anxious!"

"Haha."

Cook nodded with a smile.

The core reason why Hongguo chose to cooperate with SpaeX is not the technology of SpaecX, but the "Starlink satellite network" that SpaecX has built over several years!
It is not difficult to have a breakthrough in satellite technology, but it is rare that even if you make a breakthrough in technology, you cannot form such a large coverage network like "Starlink Satellite" in a short time!

After all, it takes time!

Obviously, just this point makes it impossible for Yanguo mobile phone companies to catch up in two or three years!
In two or three years, by that time, the red fruit will have already made a lot of money!
"Kary, call Security Bureau Miller and ask him to come forward and tell Motorola and Ericsson that they are contacting a group of Yanguo mobile phone companies!"

After finishing speaking, he thought of his old rival Phoenix Group in his mind, and suddenly let out a sneer.

"Phoenix Group, no matter how strong your research strength is, we have an absolute advantage this time!"

"Let's see how you guys take the move, haha!"

……

Phoenix Group.

"Boss, this is the sales volume of mobile phones last month. Compared with the previous data, the sales volume has declined."

"In addition, after the launch of the 'short message' function on Hongguo 14 in recent days, it has a greater impact on our 'Super' series. According to the statistics of these three days, online sales have decreased by 25%."

Hu Lai simply glanced at the statistical sales data, and then put it aside.

"It's okay, it's just a month's sales, you need to be strategic!"

Director Zhang naturally knew that the factory was secretly developing new rockets and satellites, so he nodded.

"Hongguo 14's 'short message' function has come out. In the past few days, several well-connected media have wanted to interview us about our latest technological progress. Have we rejected all of them?"

"I directly refused!"

"Until this matter is successful, we must keep it absolutely confidential."

Hu Lai waved his hand and refused firmly.

After being affected by Li Meng's incident, he required strict confidentiality for the core research and development work.

As for how the outside world evaluates the Phoenix Group, he no longer cares.

"Ok!"
