Chapter 935 The furious Bolden

8days ago Celebrity fiction 13
Musk, this bastard!

Bolden threw the documents in his hand on the desk and sat on the boss's chair. His heavy breathing was almost spitting out the fire.

As the director of NASA, he has always favored spaceX and regarded it as a representative of private aviation companies in the United States.

Whenever there are good projects, the first thing he thinks of is them. But Musk now tells him that they have outsourced the supply tasks of the International Space Station to the Star Ring Trade?

What The Fuck!

How dare they do this!

Traitor, this is a naked betrayal!

Other staff in the office were silent, and even Bolden's assistant couldn't help but speed up when he passed by his desk.

Everyone knows why this irritable old black man was angry. SpaceX actually outsourced the mission of the International Space Station, and even they were incredible.

The aerospace market is a highly segmented market.

Generally speaking, no matter how low the launch price of SpaceX is, China and Russia will not give it their launch projects.

Each country's market has only 10-30 launch missions a year. It is still tense to support local aviation companies, so how can they let them go and do it for others?

Russia's outsourcing supply missions to Star Ring Trade is an exception, on the one hand, because its own economic situation is worrying, and on the other hand, it is because Jiang Chen promised to sell the RM-320 rocket engine used by Star Ring Trade to Russian Aerospace Company... Although the RM-320 has been eliminated by Star Ring Trade itself, Jiang Chen did fulfill the contract.

But there will definitely be no such accident in the United States.

What made Bolden angry most was that he once praised the Falcon 10 Rockets in Congress, and threw a lot of money-free titles such as epoch-making technology, the Rockets that changed the future of mankind, the hope of the United States, etc. on the project that has not yet achieved results.

But now, Musk told him that sorry, our Falcon 10 rocket development plan has been cancelled.

oh!God!I will definitely be the laughing stock of Congress!

Just when Bolden was angry, his assistant came over tremblingly and said in a hurry, "Musk is outside, and he said if he wants to find you."

Bolden raised his eyebrows, forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and said to his assistant, let him come to see me.

Yes... The assistant nodded and left quickly.

He knew that his boss was on the edge of the crater at this moment.The reason why there was no roar was just the tranquility before the storm.

Soon, the office door was pushed open and a man in a coat walked in.

Bolden snorted in his nasal voice, staring at him with a sharp gaze.

I was about to find you, but you came to your door by yourself.

Musk said with a cough.Listen to my explanation...

Explain to Congress.Bolden scolded, you actually outsourced projects with subsidies to foreign companies. Are you crazy about money?

Of course I will explain to Congress that in fact, I am already preparing the hearing materials.

If you don't prepare, you won't be able to do it. If you don't give a reasonable explanation, the financial miser of the Budget Committee will probably directly send him from the Congressional hearing to the federal court.

After a moment of pause, Musk continued to say without blushing, "One thing I have to clarify, I just outsourced the launch mission to the Star Ring Trade, but the supply work is still done by us."

Bolden, who was still angry, sneered and said: Is there any difference?

Do you think it makes sense to travel to and from the ground and synchronous orbit through chemical rockets?Musk asked back.

Bolden glared at his eyebrows, and was about to speak, but suddenly he was stunned.

It's Ah, the space elevator has been completed, what's the point of continuing to develop chemical rockets?That is not the future at all!

He was angry just now, and he couldn't think calmly because he lost his mind.

Now calm down and think about it, giving up the Falcon series of Rockets may not be a wise choice.

As an expert in the aerospace field, Bolden knows very well what the limits of chemical rockets lie.

Seeing that his old friend had calmed down, Musk breathed a sigh of relief and continued to strike while the iron was hot.

I swear that I will use all the budget saved from the launch project in February and the Falcon 10 rocket R&D plan for the third generation Dragon spacecraft.Over the past few years, we have been constantly improving the Falcon Rockets, and the Dragon Spaceship Series has been stalled for too long, and it is time to bury further forward.

Bolden's face was still gloomy, but there was a hint of looseness, which meant that we would have to borrow the space elevators of the Star Ring Trade for decades to come.

There are also ports and berths for the terminal space station.I tested Jiang Chen when I called him that Star Ring Trade is quite sensitive to the rental of space elevator tracks and has little room for negotiation, but they do not exclude the leasing of ports and berths of terminal space stations.Speaking of this, Musk paused slightly. There are three days left for the United Nations Outer Space Summit. I think... this information can be used as a reference at the meeting.

Bolden's eyes lit up slightly.

Immediately stood up from the boss's chair, the old black meteor strode to his assistant's desk.

An hour later, the meeting was held in the conference room, and the senior NASA staff had to be present and give me instructions.

yes!The assistant stood up and was about to leave the desk, but Bolden reached out to stop his shoulder.

Also, contact the White House for me!Bolden said that he hopes that the White House will pay enough attention and it is best to send someone to listen to the record.Remember, don't have interns!

clear.The assistant nodded quickly.

Before leaving, the Mexican-born assistant secretly glanced at Musk.

He didn't understand how this guy calmed his boss's anger.

He originally thought that the two would fight after meeting, but after all, it was not rare to start arguing about the federal government's office culture.

After the assistant left, Bolden issued several orders to his subordinates, ensuring that everyone was moving before returning to his desk to sit down.

His mouth was a little dry. He was about to drink water, but he remembered that his assistant had already arranged a meeting.

Just as he was about to get up and make a cup of coffee, a cup of coffee happened to be in front of him.

I need your help at the Congressional hearing.Taking advantage of the time when my old friend had no time to pay attention to him, Musk made a cup of coffee for him in a very good manner.

Bolden raised his eyebrows, glanced at coffee, and then looked at Musk.

I will help you, but the key is still up to you.

Musk smiled.

With you, I feel relieved.

Just as NASA was having heated discussions for the upcoming UN summit, Jiang Chen had already ended a separate meeting with representatives from China, the United States, Russia, the United Kingdom and other countries.

Although there are not many achievements, Jiang Chen has made sufficient preparations for the upcoming summit.

After this summit, the world's political landscape may not necessarily undergo any substantial changes.

But the history of human civilization will definitely be rewritten.
