Chapter 1085 [The boss’s real hidden agenda]

Jiutian Star Network has announced the "Star Network" project schedule with great fanfare. At the same time, it must protect its leading position and ensure that it can occupy the most scarce orbital resources.

Fang Hong believes that it will not be long before not only Elon Musk will join in, but other big names in the global technology circle, such as Amazon, Google, and Microsoft, will also react one after another.

A race for space enclosure has begun. In outer space, a land without a human owner, first come first served, and those who come late will have to pay to rent it from others.

Don't worry about anything else now, just occupy the pit first.

Fang Hong has no worries that no one will come to rent orbits in the future, because after Star Network has built the second satellite telecommunications network covering the world, it means that the emergence of a second network besides the Internet in the world has become an inevitable given. fact.

When the second network appears, there will inevitably be a third network and a fourth network...

The biggest feature of the satellite telecommunications network is that the telecommunications network has national boundaries, and the addressing is the phone number. Such a network does not need a root server, and does not need to be manipulated by others. You can disconnect from the network if you want, and connect to the Internet if you want to. It is the true sense of equal interconnection between networks.

Nowadays, everyone uses the Internet, and there is no substitute. The root server is in the hands of the American family. When alternatives appear in the future, you can build a network that you control yourself. There will definitely be a lot of countries willing to control the network, and no one wants to have their fate pinched by others.

That's the underlying demand, and it's very strong.

Fang Hong personally opened up a new industrial chain and brought the "Internet" into a new era. He wanted to revolutionize the Internet and break the dominance of the United States and the United States in the fifth space of the virtual world.

A while ago, "Jane's Defense Weekly" exaggerated the fact that the Star Network threatened the information security of various countries. Fang Hong actually liked it after seeing it, and was secretly amused.

Because this has caused everyone to panic and not dare to use your satellite network, but technology is changing and the times are progressing. If you don’t want to be abandoned by the times and want to keep your own information security, then you can only build a satellite by yourself. Telecom network, this can not only ensure that one's own information data is in hand, but also can unilaterally disconnect from other networks when necessary.

Then the problem comes, other countries or companies also want to build a satellite telecommunications network.

Satellite manufacturers from the big Eastern countries will immediately rush over to promote their business and can produce OEMs; Kyushu Blue Arrow can also rush over to promote their business and can provide commercial launch services, which are reliable and cost-effective.

On the surface of Blue Star, the number of countries that can send things from the ground to outer space can be counted on one hand. If you want to pursue cost-effectiveness, you can only place an order with a company with rocket recovery capabilities.

The satellite is done, and the matter of launching the satellite is also done. Party A's partners look up at the sky, oh, all the usable orbits are owned by their owners.

At this time, the salesperson from Jiutianxing Network came. Our company has many high-quality rail resources that can provide leasing services. You can choose from many rail resources.

As long as you want to build your own satellite telecommunications network, you can only pay to rent orbital resources from Jiutianxing Network. For the sake of national security and information security, as long as the lion doesn't open his mouth, the money will be spent.

So Fang Hong is not worried at all. It doesn't matter if he doesn't use a star network. He has the basic market of Greater China, and most countries and regions, such as Africa, basically don't have the ability to build their own networks. They must use someone else's.

That can guarantee that the Star Network will be the largest network among the many satellite telecommunications networks in the future, and that is enough.

Fang Hong is not worried about not having "tenants" to rent space orbits. If there is no demand, then create demand. As the star network rolls out, those who have the conditions will definitely want to build a network that they can decide on their own.

Including some multinational technology giants, such as Amazon, Google, and Microsoft, they definitely want to build their own network. Their financial resources are definitely no problem, so they have to spend money to rent space orbits from Jiutianxing Network. Who told you The orbital resources in your own hands.

…

Also today, it is late at night in the East Eighth District and it is daylight in the Western Hemisphere. Elon Musk tweeted to reiterate the "Starlink" project and claimed on his personal social media account that the "Starlink" project has been approved. raised an additional $1 billion in financing.

Elon Musk tweeted that details of the "Starlink" project plan will be announced soon.

It was just reported that it had received US$3 billion in financing, and another US$1 billion in financing. It suddenly became the darling of capital, attracting attention and citing reports from various media.

The international astronomical community was once again angered. An astronomer working on the Hubble Telescope immediately jumped out and cursed because the Hubble Telescope is in low-Earth orbit and will also be interfered with.

A "Star Network" is not enough, how many days have passed? After getting another "Star Chain" out, it's not certain how many networks will appear later.

This really pisses off astronomers. In the future, the sky will be filled with artificial satellites creating "light pollution" that will interfere with ground-based astronomical observation equipment. Will astronomy continue to develop? Do you really want to put a telescope on the back of the moon?

The news that Elon Musk has received huge amounts of financing has spread to China, and it has also attracted a lot of attention in the mainland. Many people in the industry and the media feel that Fang Hong has made a hasty move. The establishment of Jiutianxing.com Making such a big noise has made competitors more alert, so they should keep a low profile.

…

At the same time, at the headquarters of Jiuzhou Blue Arrow Company, Luo Liang and Yan Jiandan were discussing work related to Star Network, and also talked about some things about Elon Musk.

The strength of these two people is technical research, but Fang Hong used system plug-ins to enhance their management capabilities to an epic level, so they each held the position of head of Jiuzhou Blue Arrow and Jiutian Star Network.

They can be called "double cultivation of magic and martial arts". What Fang Hong wants is this kind of result. He understands both technology and operations, so that he can better promote the implementation of the project and successfully achieve the expected results.

"After reading some reports and analysis by colleagues, most of them feel that Star Network made a bad move by publicly disclosing the plan schedule in a high-profile manner, which attracted the attention of competitors and responded quickly." Yan Jiandan said while chatting.

Recently, many interpreters feel that Fang Hong’s move is not very good. If it were not so high-profile, Elon Musk would not have been able to obtain such high amounts of financing in succession. The amount of investment he could get in the past was only a few Ten million US dollars, now it has suddenly increased by two orders of magnitude.

Everyone can judge, this is obviously stimulated by Jiutianxing Network.

Luo Liang laughed twice after hearing this and said: "What people outside are saying makes sense, but it is just a superficial theory. There are not many people who really understand General Fang's layout. I have also read some reports and analysis articles. Most of them are still focused on providing satellite Internet services, and few people have seen the aspect of seizing space orbital resources, so naturally they feel that this move is a bad move."

Yan Jiandan nodded and said: "It's not surprising. Who would have thought that Mr. Fang's real intention is to hope that Elon Musk can catch up quickly?"

Speaking of this, the two people also expressed emotion.

Yes, Fang Hong subjectively hoped that Elon Musk would get on the train as soon as possible. He never thought about letting Jiutianxing Network occupy all the scarce orbital resources, because if he could not do this, it would cause public outrage in the world.

You will have it all by yourself. When the time comes, the rules set by the International Telecommunication Union (TIU) and the Outer Space Treaty will simply turn against the principle of first-occupancy and overturn the table.

Although Qunxing Capital has become powerful now, it is obviously impossible to challenge the whole world on its own. If the table is overturned, even if Jiutianxing Network takes up all the orbital resources, it will not make much sense.

Therefore, Fang Hong needs to find a way to break this situation and prevent others from flipping the table while ensuring that he can eat the biggest piece of cake.

The solution is to get Elon Musk on the bus, because if he gets on the bus, it means that some of the interest groups behind the scenes in North America will also get a share of the pie, so the Starnet project schedule must be disclosed with great fanfare and high-profile.

Elon Musk used the "external threat" of Jiutianxing.com to persuade the North American behind-the-scenes consortium to achieve his demands. Fang Hong also achieved his demands, and neither party had any direct discussions or dialogue.

But they are all masters, and they can see clearly and know what they need.

Giving up part of the orbital resources to SpaceX will make it impossible for the United States to be unanimously willing to overturn the table. At least Elon Musk and the people behind him will definitely not be willing to spit out the benefits they have gained and bear the additional burden. Certainty risks.

There are never absolute enemies in this world, only absolute interests; there are never eternal enemies, only eternal interests.

Moreover, whose interests are the most attentive and attentive.
