Rebirth 99 to become a car giant.

Chapter 855: The more times you fight, the more people get used to it.
Venus Technology, as the company with the most sufficient satellite launch capacity in the world at this stage, was exposed very early on that it was producing reconnaissance satellites for Persia and North Korea.

The United States was also talking about this matter at the beginning, and wanted to do something in the field of industrial software.

However, in the end, the sudden emergence of Yangcheng Zhongwang destroyed this idea.

However, related projects within Daystar Technology have never stopped.

Today's Daystar Technology is no longer what it used to be.

Whether it is Venus 9 or MAX, there are already several satellites performing tasks at the same time.

Rockets are launched basically every week, sending Starlink satellites into space one by one.

Within Venus Technology, preparations for the establishment of the Starlink satellite system are also in full swing.

At this time, Venus 9 MAX successfully launched into space carrying a large Persian military reconnaissance satellite.

Daystar Technology knows that there is no way to hide this kind of information, and the United States will definitely know it.

So after the launch was successful, the official announcement was made directly.

"Venus Technology no longer has any business with us."

However, Daystar Technology looked indifferent, while America's reaction was a bit overwhelming.

"Of course, if you have some specific plans here, I can consider cooperating with them."

On the aerospace technology side, Zhu Yuanming's mood was very complicated.

Those gold sales caves are still waiting for him to spend money.

Although David does not think that Daystar Technology can really produce a qualified large aircraft, this sense of crisis is still necessary.

So he has been thinking of ways to see if he can find an opportunity to teach Daystar Technology or other Nanshan companies a profound lesson.

When you earn money, you will naturally feel better.

John's mood was a little different from David's.

"Once these rocket technologies are used by Persia on missiles, it will be very detrimental to the development of our situation in the Middle East."

"Today they dare to launch reconnaissance stars to Persia, tomorrow they dare to sell drones and other products to the other side, and the day after tomorrow they may cooperate in rocket technology."

Although not all of the money fell into his pocket, he could definitely get a huge amount of profit.

Unless Daystar Technology falls, the various actions here cannot stop.

David was a little unhappy during this time.

In particular, Daystar Technology dared to brazenly say that it wanted to build a large passenger aircraft.

"I think we still have to think of ways to deal with this kind of thing."

During this time, his friend's drone company had just delivered the first batch of 1 drones to relevant departments.

Otherwise, if Daystar Technology is allowed to develop for a few years, it will be even more difficult to deal with in the future.

However, even though I don't have any spare capacity, it doesn't mean that others can eat this fat.

"But it didn't have much effect."

In particular, some people at General Motors and Ford have made some unhappy opinions on this matter.

"Launching reconnaissance satellites to Persia at such a sensitive stage is a slap in our face."

Boeing took the lead in dealing with Nanshan enterprises, but the final effect did not seem to be very satisfactory.

As the most important of Boeing's three major businesses, the commercial aircraft segment absolutely does not allow the emergence of new competitors.

He felt that the matter could not just be let go.

"If we want to further deal with them, the measures we can use are very limited."

Feeling the change in John's attitude, David was also a little helpless.

"There will definitely be no business in the future."

There is no very effective means in hand, and there is no way to speak louder.

John didn't want to spend his time doing anything right now. He just wanted to take advantage of the weekend and fly to the southern island for a comfortable and enjoyable vacation.

David was a little reluctant to give up.

"The news that Daystar Technology is going to cooperate with Persia is not a secret."

"Mr. Qian, both Persia and North Korea have approached Daystar Technology to cooperate in launching satellites. In the past, this kind of business was basically ours."

"John, Daystar Technology is provoking us."

These products bought from DJI Drone for US$1000, re-branded, packaged and resold, the price is more than a zero.

Even after seeing the negative news about Daystar Technology, he was no longer so angry.

In recent years, their launch missions have actually been very heavy, and they do not have much transportation capacity to use in countries such as Persia.

"We have written about this matter before."

……

Save the other party from being so arrogant and unscrupulous.

Just like Boeing and Airbus passenger aircraft, when production capacity is relatively tight, it may take several years from ordering to delivery of the passenger aircraft.

But this does not mean that Airbus and Boeing allow other companies to come in and share their cake.

"The manufacturing cost of Venus Technology's rocket is the lowest in the world, and it is successfully recyclable, so the launch cost is even lower."

"Under this situation, we can't compete with them even if we compete normally."

"Besides, Persia and North Korea definitely hope to launch at a relatively low price."

"Another point is that we are unlikely to help each other produce reconnaissance satellites. Venus Technology does not have too many concerns."

Qian Junfeng saw things more clearly.

Commercial rocket launches are only a relatively small business in aerospace technology.

His grades don't mainly depend on this.

The top priority is to launch the Long March 5 and space station projects as soon as possible. There are also various follow-up space missions waiting for them to be busy.

"That's true. The situation at Daystar Technology is indeed quite special, and it can be regarded as a huge domestic attempt in the aerospace field."

Zhu Yuanming also has a clear view of major political matters.

I just feel like I can’t accept it in my heart.

"From now on, we will focus on our own domestic projects, leaving international projects to Daystar Technology."

"This should also be the policy set by the above."

"Even in the future, we will consider entrusting Venus Technology to launch our space station or other satellites."

Qian Junfeng has also had a lot of exchanges with Daystar Technology in the past two years.

The mentality is also constantly adjusting.

Venus Technology is now a thorn in the side of relevant departments, and he must correctly handle the relationship between Aerospace Technology and Venus Technology.

Otherwise, the position under your buttocks may need to be moved.

However, compared with the magnanimity of Aerospace Science and Technology, the attitude of Polar Bear United Rocket and Space Corporation is a little different.

"Grotin, I think it is necessary to communicate with Persia. Many of their previous satellites were launched with our help, or they were launched by themselves using our technology."

"Now we are running to China's Daystar Technology. What will happen to us in the future?"

Demetri is very clear about the gap between his company and Daystar Technology.

In particular, the gap in the production of recyclable rockets and satellites is simply not a point or two.

They even purchased a batch of gallium nitride power components from Nanshan Semiconductor to produce satellites.

"I heard that the price of a launch from Daystar Technology is less than 3000 million US dollars. Even if the cost of satellite manufacturing is included, it is less than 1 million US dollars."

"This is still a large reconnaissance satellite. If it is a smaller satellite, the overall cost can be significantly reduced."

"We definitely can't do it at this price."

Grotin knew very well why Persia chose to cooperate with Daystar Technology.

As the world's first company to mass-produce recyclable rockets, Venus Technology is still very well-known internationally.

In particular, their Starlink project has entered the stage of rapid implementation, and there is a high probability that Persia will also use Venus Technology’s Starlink in the future.

On the other hand, on the polar bear side, although the Starlink project has also been launched, it is very good to finally complete the satellite layout over the polar bear.

They simply don't have enough budget to develop a global presence.

Even the Starlink developed by the European Space Agency only considers the needs of the European region and does not intend to develop it globally.

"The Kunpeng heavy transport helicopter developed by Daystar Technology some time ago is said to have made Mir Helicopter Factory very passive."

"I heard they will produce other models of helicopters and transport aircraft in the future."

"They want to be China's Boeing, and they can do any kind of project."

In Dmitri's view, Daystar Technology is a gluttonous child who wants to eat everything.

We need to develop aerospace and aviation.

Even the communications industry is not spared.

The most troublesome thing is that Venus Technology's technical strength is still very strong. Things that others find difficult to solve can be solved in their hands.

Every time Demetri saw the words "Venus Technology", his eyes were filled with envy, jealousy and hatred.

"This company is indeed a weirdo, but we have a lot of materials to purchase from companies in the Nanshan System."

"There is no need to offend them unless it is absolutely necessary."

When Grotin said this, he immediately silenced Dmitri.

High-end carbon fiber, gallium nitride power components, gallium nitride solar panels, and even some special equipment also need to be purchased from each other.

You really can't offend others easily.

Otherwise, if they lose this important source of materials, they may not be able to find other substitutes even if they spend money.

……

"Mr. Cao, North Korea wants to arrange a group of people to come and learn the rocket technology of Venus 9 from us."

"For this purpose, they also offered a technology transfer price of US$1 million."

"I think this matter seems a bit special. The other party's purpose is not that simple." With the successful launch of satellites by Venus Technology to Persia, the satellite launch mission for North Korea is also on the agenda.

But at this time, the other party suddenly proposed to learn satellite technology from Daystar Technology, and things were obviously a bit strange.

Normally, everyone knows that helping you launch satellites is a commercial cooperation, but it is absolutely impossible to transfer rocket technology to you just because of this cooperation.

Where can there be such a good thing in the world?

"The technology of recyclable rockets is of great help in launching various satellites and can reduce related costs."

"Although North Korea itself will launch some satellites, the number of times is still very small."

"So recyclable rockets are not actually a necessity for them."

"Now he suddenly wants to negotiate with us about technology transfer and arrange for people to come over to study. It obviously has other purposes."

"Nine times out of ten, we want to turn our Venus 9 into a certain type of missile."

Rocket technology and missile technology are interlinked.

Venus 9 can send satellites into space, so it can naturally be transformed into intercontinental ballistic missiles.

If a special warhead is added to this kind of thing, the deterrent effect will be amplified countless times.

Obviously, North Korea has taken a fancy to this aspect of use.

Even though they themselves have been doing research in this area over the years, there is still a big gap between their level and the world's first-class research.

As for Venus Technology, among all those who have mastered world-class rocket technology, North Korea is the most likely candidate to obtain this technology at a relatively low cost.

No wonder the other party would make such a request at this time.

"You also think that the other side wants to transform the rocket into a ballistic missile."

"Then we definitely can't transfer it."

There was a trace of regret on Zhao Xingyu's face.

For Venus Technology, in fact, any cooperation can be considered, as long as the price is in place.

Of course, this cooperation must be confirmed with the relevant departments.

"You talk to Pan Jun about this matter and ask him to help confirm it."

"If he gives a positive reply, we will consider this matter again."

Cao Yang obviously also knows the particularity of this kind of technology transfer, and he definitely can't just make the decision by himself.

The relationship between North Korea and China is quite special. Whether something works or not depends on the opinions of relevant departments.

Anyway, he didn't completely close the door himself.

……

"Mr. Cao, at this Yangcheng Auto Show, we are going to show everyone our parts-related technologies."

"For example, our six-in-one motor and the most advanced intelligent cockpit and other products are the most technologically advanced in the industry."

Seeing that the Yangcheng Auto Show is approaching, various companies within Nanshan Automobile Group are also preparing for this auto show.

Especially since Nanshan Automobile Group was hit hard this year, everyone felt that they should take advantage of this auto show to showcase their strength.

The more you hit me, the better I develop.

It can make General Motors and Ford Motor Company half angry to death.

"The parts show has a special exhibition area, but the popularity there is far less than the exhibition hall here at the auto show."

"At that time, we will directly book most of the exhibition hall and display Xingchen Motors, Jaguar Land Rover, Future Auto and Nanshan Engine, Nanshan Transmission, Nanshan Auto Parts and other companies together."

“The publicity effect will be better this way.”

Although the organizer definitely hopes that everyone will display the complete vehicle as a complete vehicle and the parts as parts.

However, if Nanshan Automobile Group wants to get some special treatment, there will naturally be no problem at all.

At every auto show, the exhibition area of ​​Nanshan Automobile Group is the most attractive to the audience.

There will be another blockbuster new car released this year, and it will definitely be very popular by then.

"Well, putting them together can indeed have a better publicity effect. I will communicate with the exhibition hall when the time comes."

"I even think that Nanshan equipment and other projects related to the automotive industry can actually be exhibited in the same exhibition area."

Dai Hanbiao thought that if he wanted to do it, he should get all the projects together.

The momentum was definitely greater at that time.

Of course, for Nanshan equipment, it is definitely impossible to move the equipment here for display, at least most of the equipment cannot be moved here.

Some robot hands are fine.

"Although our technology is very powerful, you still have to think about publicity in advance."

"Some companies can promote mediocre technologies as high-end, but we must not describe the most advanced technologies as mediocre."

Compared with Xingchen Automobile and other vehicle companies, the marketing level of Nanshan Auto Parts is definitely much lower.

Especially this kind of marketing method to the general public, they are even more lacking.

"I will have a good communication with Autohome and ask them to help us do a good job in marketing this time."

"At the same time, we will also report the marketing plan of Nanshan Auto Parts to Mr. Zeng and listen to his opinions."

When Cao Yang said this, Dai Hanbiao also felt the pressure.

Is this a subtle expression of dissatisfaction with yourself?
……

While all car companies are gearing up to make a splash at the Yangcheng Auto Show, the situation inside GM is quite special.

"Austin, I think we should continue to participate in this year's Yangcheng Auto Show."

"Otherwise, our company's presence in China will become increasingly diminished."

Jim is also under a lot of pressure now.

At the GM 4S store in Shanghai, none of the cars in stock can be sold.

Some hot-selling models are currently unavailable.

Seeing the panic within the company, he was also very anxious.

The relevant arrangements for the Yangcheng Auto Show were budgeted long ago.

If you don't participate now, some of the costs you have already paid cannot be canceled.

Of course, the most important thing is that if they don't even participate in the auto show and there are no cars to sell, then the significance of Jim's department's existence will suddenly become very low.

After all, they are not the purchasing department. They are extremely busy during this period, desperately trying to find alternative manufacturers to produce related parts. They all turn into trapeze artists, trying to appear busy.

"There have been a lot of negative news about us in the media during this period, and many 4S stores have had disputes with some consumers."

"The number of 4S stores that have withdrawn from the network has exceeded 20 in the past month, and there are new stores that want to withdraw from the network every now and then."

"I'm worried that if I continue to attend the auto show, someone may cause trouble at the auto show."

It has to be said that Austin's worries are not unfounded.

Modu General's reputation in China has definitely plummeted.

"50% of our company's shares are owned by the Modu Automobile Group, but during this conflict, they hardly stepped forward to help."

"I think it is necessary for the headquarters to put pressure on the other party."

"They are local snakes after all. If they are willing to take action, the situation should not be so serious."

Jim is obviously quite dissatisfied with Modu Automobile Group.

In his opinion, when General Motors gave half of its shares to the other party, wasn't it because it hoped to help the company solve some problems that only local snakes could easily solve at critical moments?
"When Nanshan Auto Parts just cut off our supply, I already contacted people from Modu Auto Group."

"But you know the result. I am not stupid and will not stand up against Nanshan Automobile Group at this time."

"Otherwise, they won't be able to keep the position under their buttocks."

Austin has been in China for several years, and he is relatively clear about many things here.

As a state-owned enterprise, the people of Modu Automobile Group must consider the attitude of China when doing things.

Obviously, Nanshan Automobile Group has been suppressed. All China's independent brand car companies must side with Nanshan Automobile Group in this matter.

Otherwise, just wait to be dealt with.

"Then are we just going to wait like this?"

"I feel like this is not the solution."

"What if something unexpected happens and there is no way to resume production after half a year?"

When Jim said this, Austin opened his mouth and didn't know what to do.

Although he has never been willing to think about it this way, he actually knows that this possibility completely exists.

There is even a high probability that this matter will develop in this direction.

It's just that before we really hit the wall, we just gave up on the Chinese market. This decision was not that easy to make.

"I'll communicate with the headquarters again and see what the headquarters thinks about it."

"If the headquarters can seize some share from Japanese car companies and Korean car companies in the local market this year, the overall sales may not necessarily decline."

"Even if we lose the Chinese market in the future, the overall sales volume may not drop much."

"Just like this, Japanese car companies and Korean car companies will basically have to significantly reduce their market share."

Austin will not pity competitors such as Toyota and Honda.

But he was worried that the Japanese and Korean people would not compromise easily.

After all, America, as the boss, sometimes still has to think about how it eats.

So as not to make all the little brothers alienated.

"We still need to make a decision on this matter as soon as possible. We should not continue to suffer chaos!"

"Whether you are determined to develop in China or give up the Chinese market, you have to make a decision!"

Austin also understood what Jim said.

So I was soon going to fly back to Detroit in person and report face-to-face to the bosses at the headquarters.
