Chapter 1035: Pei Qing's book is published and the space tourism project starts

On the second day after the Lantern Festival, Pei Qing's book went on sale. Pei Qing also got the book from the publishing house. After reading it carefully, she found that not a single word of the content had been changed.

In fact, Pei Qing started promoting this book when she was at work on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. At that time, she wanted to invite Pei Qing to participate in the promotion, but she was rejected.

Although this book is indeed written by her, Pei Qing can get more income if the book sells well, but her original intention of writing this book is not to make money, but to think and study the current domestic economy and future economic development .

Of course, she does want more people to pay attention to this set of books. After all, she writes it to let more people see and understand her thoughts, so as to have a certain influence.

So in order to achieve this goal, Pei Qing deliberately discussed with Ye Zishu and asked Shengshi Media Group to use his name for a certain amount of publicity.

In addition, Pei Qing herself is not an unknown person, having the two of them's names is a very good advertisement, and there is no need for Pei Qing to run around to promote it.

However, this kind of thing requires the consent of Ye Zishu. Originally, this set of books wanted to add Ye Zishu's name in the author column, but Ye Zishu declined it.

He was afraid that Ye Zishu wouldn't want to do this, so he naturally didn't dare to make a claim, but relying on Pei Qing alone, the influence would be limited after all, because it was an economics and academic book.

If Pei Qing publishes management books, medical forward-looking books and other books related to her work, then her name is definitely a golden sign.

It's different for Ye Zishu to do publicity. Although Ye Zishu is not an economist and has no economic works abroad, but his status has reached his level, if he does not have this kind of thinking, others will not believe it.

After obtaining the consent of Ye Zishu, the subsequent publicity was as expected, and it received widespread attention. When it came to the day of listing, the sales results were also very good.

According to the news from Shengshi Media Group, 500,000 sets of this set of books were sold on the first day, and the number of words in each set of 6 books is about 500,000 words. With the analysis of data charts, it is still very thick.

Later, Pei Qing didn't pay attention to the sales data, because she had already devoted her energy to writing specific problem analysis. If she wanted to become a system, these 6 books alone were not enough.

The first half of the month was quite calm, Pei Qing thought there was no reaction at first, but it took so much time to read it all because of Ye Zi's words.

What's more, it is a relatively professional work, with so many new points of view, which is different from reading a novel. Whether it is a rebuttal or an agreement, one must research and understand before expressing an opinion.

Especially for real scholars, they will not easily express their opinions until they understand it. Only those who are half-level will dare to speak casually before they fully understand it, because they are not afraid of shame.

Sure enough, half a month later, some scholars specifically published their opinions on this set of books. The evaluation can be summed up as being too idealistic, without a realistic basis for landing, but the views are novel and provide new ideas, which are worth reading.

This is a relatively rational evaluation. The person who made the evaluation has a relatively high status in the field of domestic economics. If Pei Qing's status was not very high, no one would be bothered to comment.

After all, Pei Qing is also at the helm of the country's and even the world's top medical and medical groups. Her words and deeds have a great impact, not to mention the books she writes are academically oriented.

If he doesn't express his opinions and views, there will only be two situations, one is to belittle Pei Qing's book, and the other is to praise this book.

In his opinion, it is not advisable. Many ideas in it are novel and have high reference value, but he does not think they can be copied. It is not a big problem as an academic discussion. He is afraid that some people will praise them without thinking, and even want to follow the ideas in it. .

There is the first person to express an opinion, and naturally there are the second and the third, as people from all walks of life express their opinions one after another, leading to polarization of opinions.

Detractors think that this set of writing is completely divorced from reality,

It violates the general laws of economics. If reforms are carried out in accordance with this line of thinking, the economy will be completely ruined.

The arguments they gave are actually not very novel. They are all copied from foreign economics works and viewpoints. Regardless of the size of our economy, in fact, many fields still adhere to the doctrine of borrowing.

Especially for university scholars in the ivory tower, their work has actually been out of touch with the domestic economic situation, and they have not thought about where the domestic economy should go next.

When we are in the catching-up stage, we can still cross the river by feeling the stones. When we are already the leader, there are no stones to touch. If we want to continue to lead, we must establish our own development theory.

Pei Qing took the time to read their opinions, but she was not angry about it. After all, people have the right to speak. If they are afraid of others saying it, then don't publish it.

It's just that Pei Qing doesn't fully agree with the laws of economics they talk about. The laws of economics are not the laws of natural science. Even the laws of natural science are constantly being revised with the development of science.

Economics is not so much a science as it is experience and statistics. Through the analysis and research of some problems and phenomena in the process of economic development, some theories that can be explained are obtained.

In fact, after the passage of time, theories that were originally reasonably explanatory sometimes become invalid. Therefore, it is not a rigorous academic attitude to regard the laws of economics as golden rules.

What's more, the rebuttal examples they gave are applicable in the stage of capitalism, or even only in the economic scenarios of capitalist countries, which do not fully fit my country's current economic situation, and do not have much guidance for future economic development. significance.

Naturally, there are opponents and supporters, but in comparison, they appear to be weak, and their supporting views are not on point.

I just feel that our country is capable of implementing some reforms that meet the needs of the socialist economy at this stage, but the arguments given are not recognized by Pei Qing.

Most of the supporters still think about the problem from the perspective of ordinary people's demands. The ideal is very good, but they don't think too much about how to implement it without problems.

In this set of books, Pei Qing only made predictions about the direction of economic reform he thought, but did not give too detailed arguments, because she plans to elaborate in detail in later books.

Generally speaking, everyone agrees with her ideas of analyzing problems from an economic perspective, but they do not fully agree with her direction of future economic reform, and there are even extreme opponents.

I don't know if they really think there is a problem with the direction of the reform, or if it involves the interests behind it, because according to Pei Qing's reform direction, there are great restrictions on capital.

Although the current personal wealth distribution has been adjusted through a series of tax policies, which are very unfriendly to the rich, there are still some ways to avoid it, such as not paying dividends, so you don’t have to pay high personal income tax.

But according to Pei Qing's reform direction, the capital is really honestly working for the people of the whole country, and the income they get is really hard work. Of course, capital is unwilling.

Fortunately, these people still don't know that Pei Qing and Ye Zishu have a close relationship, otherwise they would be even more confused. How can they cheat their own people because they dislike Ye Zishu for making too much money?

Everyone was also very puzzled. I heard that this set is still involved, but the title of the book is not listed in the author column, and they don't know whether the propaganda is true or not. Anyway, Ye Zishu did not make any response to the outside world.

For ordinary people, they naturally hope that what is in the book becomes a reality. Although the description in the book is not entirely biased towards ordinary people, it is the most friendly solution for ordinary people.

However, many people think that the current situation is not bad. The establishment of the social security fund is to take care of ordinary people. This is the common view of ordinary people.

In fact, the establishment of the social security fund has to be done, because robots will inevitably replace a large number of labor positions. If there is no social security fund, the interests of ordinary people will be quickly deprived.

This will inevitably lead to social problems. It seems to be similar to the reforms in this book, but in fact the starting point is different, and it is not systematic at present. It is just a patch under the framework of other people's economics.

Pei Qing and Ye Zishu were not affected by the outside world, but Ye Zihua and Ye Ziqi ran over specially to discuss the contents with Pei Qing.

After reading this set of books by Pei Qing, Ye Zihua felt that it was necessary to write a set of works on finance under the framework of socialist thinking to improve the system structure of this set of books.

Ye Zihua has been engaged in the financial industry for so many years, and she is quite familiar with the financial field. In addition, she has been studying all the time and has her own knowledge system, but she has not systematically explained it.

Now that I read Pei Qing's book, I think that many points of view coincide with each other. After all, their thinking still adheres to the idea of ​​Ye Zishu, and it is not surprising that their views are similar.

Ye Ziqi feels that finance and economics alone are not enough to support a sound social structure, and there must be certain deficiencies in the reform.

Therefore, she also plans to write academic works related to the matching laws and regulations and social operations, so that this theory can be further improved and enriched.

Seeing that everyone seems to be very interested in this, Ye Zishu wants to contribute, and he doesn't seem to be able to take it completely seriously, so he plans to write a book on political science that goes with this theory.

This seems to be working together. As for whether it plays the role of checking for omissions and filling in vacancies, or whether it is the role of continuing the work, it depends on what it looks like after it really comes out.

Moreover, any theory cannot be achieved overnight, and it must be constantly updated and iterated with the improvement of cognitive level. Taking temporary cognition and viewpoints as the standard is not a rigorous academic attitude.

In April, it took more than two years for Baihu Technology to finally upgrade the space station into a space city, which can accommodate tens of thousands of staff for long-term stay.

This is a miracle for mankind, not only a miracle of science and technology, but also a miracle of engineering design, and it has the meaning of being recorded in the annals of history.

When Baihu Technology Company announced the completion of the construction of the space city, all parties had various feelings about it, but on the surface they still received great praise.

Whether it is a friendly relationship or a competitive relationship, whether it is a free-riding relationship or a perfunctory relationship, this is after all the crystallization of human wisdom and a major masterpiece of human beings climbing the peak.

As a result, Baihu Technology Company received warm congratulations from various national space agencies around the world. Some of them were very formal and sent congratulatory letters in person. Although some did not send congratulatory letters, they posted congratulatory words on their social media accounts.

As for the folks, there are not so many twists and turns, and the country is naturally full of celebrations. After all, we have finally made an outstanding achievement in a space technology, and it is hard to be happy.

Among the current space programs, the moon landing has already been completed by some countries decades ago. Although we have done it now, it is not considered groundbreaking unless the permanent experimental base on the moon is completed.

Although Mars also sent a lander for scientific research and even brought back soil samples from Mars, it is already a feat, but it is only a step forward, not to mention a decisive progress.

Although the space station is not our first construction, we have made many far-reaching achievements in this regard. Building the space station into a space city just looks more iconic.

People abroad will also have different reactions depending on the prospects of the relationship. Countries with better relations will naturally celebrate together. They are most likely to reach cooperation, which is also beneficial to their own development.

In countries that are not very close, the people have mixed feelings. I did not expect that we could still achieve such great achievements in the field of space technology and engineering under the blockade.

At the same time, I am also very dissatisfied with the performance of my country's aerospace research institutes. With so much money every year, but they are sent first, it is normal to complain and be dissatisfied.

Of course, as a private company, it is natural to want to enjoy these honors. After all, everyone wants to realize their ideals while making money.

While gaining praise, we also want to be famous in history. Everyone has different levels of needs. People are like this. As a combination of people's interests, enterprises are also like this.

The fact that the company has won such an honor is closely related to the interests of everyone in the company. As a special company, Baihu Technology Company is not easy to give an example.

But if you switch to other companies, it is easy to understand with an example. People who come from well-known companies must be more valued in the talent market, they can get more job opportunities, and it is easier to get higher salaries.

However, these are high-level needs. As private companies, the minimum needs are their basic interests, which is to make money. Private companies that do not make money are not qualified to talk about higher ideals and honors.

So after announcing the completion of the construction of the space city, within a few days, Baihu Technology announced the space tourism plan and disclosed more details to the outside world.

The first is the issue of vehicle safety. Since their super-large space vehicle achieved its first flight, it has replaced some rocket transportation tasks and performed hundreds of space flight tasks.

In the field of aerospace, such high-intensity and frequent missions have not had a single major accident, which has proved to be safe enough and can be used for the transportation of ordinary tourists.

Publishing this information will help tourists put down their safety concerns, and even released a lot of non-sensitive parameters, such as the maximum acceleration during the flight, and even body feelings.

The publication of these data allows tourists to decide whether to participate in space tourism projects according to their own conditions. After all, no matter how comfortable it is, there are still certain requirements for the body.

The second is the issue of cost. In the past, space tourism was expensive. Even a circle from space would cost hundreds of millions of dollars. This is beyond the luxury of ordinary people.

It’s different now. Participating in the space tourism project of Baihu Technology Company, if you go to space for a circle, you only need 5 million yuan, but you need to pay 1 million yuan for the early guidance and training services.

Even so, for many people, it is very cost-effective to go to space for 6 million yuan. The number of super rich people in the world is limited, but there are definitely tens of millions of rich people who can spend 6 million yuan.

If you want to take a few days in the space city, sit in the space capsule and overlook Yuan.

After such a competitive price came out, it naturally caused an uproar all over the world. Everyone has never seen that space tourism is so cheap. If you have the ability, you must go and see it in your life.

In the past, only a few people could participate in the projects, but now they only need a little money, which is a huge temptation for many people, and this kind of thing can't be delayed for too long, it must be done while the body is younger.

Then White Tiger Technology Company announced the estimated annual carrying capacity. Although they can send millions of tourists to space tourism every year, they did not do so when they announced the information.

Instead, it was announced that the number of annual receptions will be temporarily set at 100,000. Although this number is still not small, compared with 1 million, it seems that the number of places is still very tight.

Anyone with a little brain should understand that there are so many people in the world, and the number of people who can spend money for space tourism far exceeds the number of 100,000.

If you want to experience the space tourism project as soon as possible, you must make a reservation as soon as possible. If you don't grab the quota immediately, you don't know when you will be able to arrange it later.

This kind of tension came out all at once. When the quota is really full, there are some ways to increase the carrying capacity and leave a good impression on these urgent tourists.

At the same time, this will not appear to be too profitable. Based on the calculation of 100,000 people, Baihu Technology Company can obtain 600 billion yuan in revenue every year, which is still within the range accepted by everyone.

If calculated on the basis of 1 million person-times, that would be an annual revenue of 6 trillion yuan. At this time, everyone may have to discuss whether Baihu Technology can further reduce the price.

Such a large quantity shows that the cost can be further reduced. This is the basic law of economic operation. The cost is diluted through the quantity, so that ordinary people can also enjoy the fruits of technological progress.

Baihu Technology does have this idea, but they have to harvest a wave of rich people's money first. After harvesting a wave of these people, the market will gradually shrink, and then they will lower the price to expand the market.

There is currently a market of more than 60 trillion yuan waiting for them. Baihu Technology does not have to worry about no market at all, so it is not in a hurry to lower the price.

After the market is almost eaten, the price will be reduced by 10 times. In terms of my country's per capita income, basically everyone can go for a circle.

With the population size of our country, this is a market of 600 trillion yuan, not counting the overseas market. With such a broad prospect, Baihu Technology has already begun to drool.

At present, they have produced 10 ultra-large space transport aircraft. If the number of receptions is 1 million per year, each aircraft needs to fly 200 sorties per year on average.

In terms of the stability and technical reliability of their super-large space transport aircraft, they can definitely complete such a high-intensity transportation task.

Although the cost of each such space shuttle is high, and the cost of one is as high as 50 billion yuan, compared with the benefits obtained, it is completely negligible.

This is 10 times the income. Even after deducting various costs and taxes, the profit is still terrible. It is very important to solve the next funding problem of Baihu Technology Company.

Not long after these news were announced, Baihu Technology Company opened a booking channel, and only needed to pay the training fee as a deposit to obtain the qualification for space tourism.

After the training is over, tourists need to pay for space tourism before proceeding to the next step. If they regret it halfway, it is okay, anyway, the money for the training fee is also earned.

In order to be able to reflect the value of the 1 million yuan training fee, they have formulated a lot of training subjects. Although they are not as profound as professional astronauts, they still have what they should have.

Among them, there is no distinction between theoretical studies, and customers can also choose. After all, rich people are busy, and they can spend as little as possible. Their time is money.

Therefore, in addition to providing base theoretical training services, they also provide door-to-door training services, explaining theoretical knowledge and common sense knowledge to customers during their rest time every day.

As for whether they understand it or remember it, it doesn’t really matter, because they don’t need to learn much of this kind of knowledge, they just need to listen to the crew’s arrangement.

However, physical adaptation training is still very important. People who have not experienced too much acceleration are prone to physical problems, and the experience of weightlessness and handling ability are also essential for them.

This part of the training is actually to allow them to have a physical and psychological adaptation process. If they have not experienced it before, they will definitely panic and make some dangerous moves when they encounter it for the first time.

The day before the opening of the reservation channel, Baihu Technology also specially released their space tourism fantasy cg animation to understand the entire space tourism process and the projects that can be experienced.

Doing so will help more people make up their minds to participate in the space tourism project, which is much more effective than dry text descriptions, and the results have indeed played a good role.

On the first day of the opening of the booking channel, 10,000 customers around the world signed up, and the deposit was directly transferred to the account of Baihu Technology Company. The start was very smooth.

In order to increase the sense of urgency of other customers and also reflect the popularity of the project, Baihu Technology directly listed the ranking of the number of participants on the reservation website.

When people who are tempted look at the number on it beating continuously, no matter how much they hesitate, they have to make up their minds and book a seat in advance, otherwise they will not know when it will be their turn if they wait any longer.

This method worked very well. On the first day, 10,000 customers signed up, and the number increased by 20,000 on the second day. For a week in a row, the number of customers every day was more than the previous day.

Fortunately, Baihu Technology Company has been preparing for this for a long time, and the training base has been established long ago. There are a total of 10 training bases in the country, and each training base can train 10,000 people at the same time, adding up to 100,000 people.

The training period is 30 days, including 15 days for theoretical training and 15 days for practical training. The theoretical time can be shortened, but the practical time cannot be shortened.

The 10,000 people who booked on the first day were notified on the second day that they would come to receive training. Of course, they could pay an extra fee and provide door-to-door service. If there is no time, they can be postponed later, but no more than two times.

Later, they will continue to notify other scheduled customers to come to receive training, and these tasks will be handed over to the general robot, and all training processes have been planned.
