Chapter 744 The Wheel of the Times Is Moving Forward

After the successful manned landing on the moon, the next strategic goal of Huaguo Aerospace's development route was quickly determined, and it was almost time for Lu Zhou to return to Jinling.

After hearing the news that he was planning to leave Shangjing, Academician Wang Zengguang came to the door immediately, dragged him to find a restaurant near the State Guest Hotel, ordered a table of side dishes, and talked about old stories while eating.

"I originally planned to come to you for a gathering a few days ago, but I heard that you were going to have a meeting, so I said to delay it for a few days. I didn't expect you to leave after the meeting."

After a cup of tea with Academician Wang, Lu Zhou said with a smile, "I'm busy with work, so I don't have time to waste."

Seeing Lu Zhou smile, Academician Wang took a sip of white wine and said in a chatty tone.

"I'm afraid I've offended a lot of people this time."

Lu Zhou didn't care much about the dishes he put in the bowl: "It doesn't matter, as long as you talk, you will definitely offend people."

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and there are conflicting academic views. This thing cannot be overcome.

If he had to take this into consideration when he said anything, he wouldn't do anything about it.

Academician Wang said with a smile: "You don't care."

Stopping the chopsticks in his hand, Lu Zhou thought for a while and said, "The main reason is that there is no reason to care."

Looking at the indifferent Lu Zhou, Academician Wang refilled the empty glass with a glass of beer and raised it solemnly: "Just say this to you, I respect you for this glass!"

"You're welcome."

Lu Zhou smiled, touched a glass with him, and drank it all.

After eating, Lu Zhou said goodbye to Academician Wang, then returned to the hotel to pack up his luggage, and took Wang Peng's car to the high-speed rail station.

Before the start of the aerospace conference, the Bureau of Science and Industry had already bought the business class ticket for him. Although Lu Zhou felt that it was not necessary to be so polite, he still accepted their kindness.

Sitting on the high-speed train, Lu Zhou asked the flight attendant to help him make a cup of coffee, and then took out the laptop and opened it.

Just when he was about to take advantage of the time he was in the car to brush through the documents stored in the mailbox, a call came to his mobile phone.

"Hey?"

"It's me, where are you now?"

The sweet voice came quickly from the other end of the phone. Without even looking at the caller ID, Lu Zhou could guess that it was Senior Sister calling.

Leaning on the soft seat, Lu Zhou said, "I've already returned to Jinling, what's wrong?"

Chen Yushan bent the corner of her mouth and said, "It's nothing, I just want to make a phone call to harass you. Speaking of which, I thought you had no business vision before, but I didn't expect that I underestimated you."

"Haha, that's a must."

Did you make a special call to flatter me?

How embarrassing is this?

With a little fluttering smile, Lu Zhou rubbed his nose and asked, "By the way, what made you feel this way?"

Shame to say.

He himself didn't realize that he had any business vision, but he didn't expect to be seen through by senior sister.

Chen Yushan: "Haven't you heard? The official website of the Science and Industry Bureau just published a message that at the aerospace conference held in Shanghai, Hua Guo will take the lunar orbital space station as the next strategic goal of its aerospace development plan."

Hearing this sentence, Lu Zhou hesitated slightly and asked, "...Uh, is there any problem?"

He had just attended that meeting, and even this opinion was raised by him.

But what does this have to do with business vision?

"I asked the people from the aerospace project department to make an industry report. Yesterday, I took the industry report and studied it carefully. I found that if the lunar orbit space station is the goal, only we have the qualification to bid for the entire spacecraft carrying project."

Speaking of this, Chen Yushan's tone was also a little emotional, "To be honest, I was not optimistic about aerospace, a knowledge-intensive industry with a large investment cycle, high risk, low returns, and relying on state subsidies. I didn't expect you to be more than me. Seeing farther, and accidentally becoming an industry leader, it really amazes me.”

To be honest, before launching the Xiangrui project, she was already prepared for losses, and even helped the company formulate countermeasures.

But in the end, things went smoothly, and even she herself was surprised.

However, Lu Zhou's voice was a little subtle at the moment.

"So that's what I said..."

Hearing that he didn't seem particularly excited, Chen Yushan was stunned for a moment, and asked in confusion, "...What's the matter?"

"It's nothing..." Lu Zhou pinched his brows with some headache, and sighed, "I just feel a little emotional, eating alone is going to be hated by others."

He was talking about how he felt that when he walked out of the venue, the CEO of Hangke Group looked like he wanted to eat him, and he didn't dare to say anything when he was upset.

The CEOs of private companies with launch projects as their main business, such as Zero One Space and Interstellar Glory, came out of the conference room with a gloomy expression on their faces.

Even the national team can't beat Xingkong Technology, let alone them. There are only two paths before them.

Either develop new launch technologies, or shift the focus of business and invest more money in the research and development of outer space equipment.

Hearing Lu Zhou's sigh, Chen Yushan couldn't help but chuckle and said with a smile.

"You're already worrying about others."

Lu Zhou: "Don't worry about it, just feel a little..."

Chen Yushan: "Pretentious!"

Lu Zhou: "..."

Hypocritical?

Have it?

Seeing that Lu Zhou didn't speak, Chen Yushan said with a smile: "An La An La, you have time to worry about this, it is better to worry about something more meaningful. I have a meeting to open in a while, so I will talk about it here first."

"Well, you go to work first."

It really doesn't make sense to worry about these things.

The invisible hand of the market will adjust everything that is unreasonable back to a reasonable track.

If they cannot adapt to this era, they will be abandoned by this era. For those enterprises that are excluded from the threshold, if they can find a path suitable for their own survival, then they can survive. If you can't find it, it's better to close it early.

There will always be someone who will take their place and must do better than them.

As for being hated...

Not even one or two.

Thinking of this, Lu Zhou felt a lot more open.

After hanging up the phone, I stuffed the phone back into my pocket, just at this moment, the flight attendant came over with coffee.

"Sir, your coffee."

"thanks."

Taking the coffee from the flight attendant, Lu Zhou nodded to thank her, took a sip of the coffee, and continued to look at the computer screen.

Just when he opened the browser, a piece of news caught his eye.

Raising his eyebrows with interest, Lu Zhou stared at the news and read the summary of the article in a low voice.

"...Johnson & Johnson has made a major breakthrough in the technology of human cryogenic dormancy slow-release agents. The CEO of Johnson & Johnson said that if the technology is mature, it will not only be used for ultra-long-distance interplanetary travel, but also allow some terminally ill diseases. Patients travel to a more technologically advanced future for treatment.”

"...It's kind of interesting."

After reading the news, the corners of Lu Zhou's mouth gradually turned up.

If controllable fusion liberates the shackles of energy, then aerospace is like a stimulant, activating people's enthusiasm and desire for new technologies.

Just as the American continent saved the ancient European continent, the exploration of outer space is bound to rekindle people's longing for a new world.

Since the Cold War, many technical fields other than information technology have actually been stagnant for a long time. And now, this stagnant wheel seems to be gradually accelerating and beginning to move forward.

At this moment, Lu Zhou's mood suddenly felt a little emotional.

He is now more and more looking forward to what the world will be like in half a century.

Perhaps that magnificent era will be more exciting than the past half century.

If nothing else, he will definitely see it in his lifetime...
