Chapter 72 The Basis of Cooperation with Musk
"Junior brother, Musk asked me to act as a middleman. He came to China this time hoping to discuss cooperation with you." Lei Jun said.

Chen Yuanguang felt strange: "Isn't human hibernation technology already included in the prohibited access catalog? Not to mention letting him invest, even the products can't be sold overseas.

There is no basis for cooperation between us.”

Thanks to the broad-spectrum vaccine, the viral pandemic has come to an end, global trade has been reactivated, and old friends of China have begun their visits to China.

As one of the younger old friends, Musk is no exception. He is coming to inspect Tesla's factory in Shenhai, and is also very interested in Chen Yuanguang, who has become famous in the past two years.

Lei Jun said: “I don’t know what he can do.

Musk has strong connections, maybe he has a solution, you can talk to him.

There are many solutions, depending on which one you choose. For example, you can set up a mixed-equity company with state-owned and foreign capital, and then use this company to invest in your company, and then take the technology out of the prohibited export catalogue after two years.

It will not affect current cooperation or future cooperation.

This is the simplest solution I can think of. There are always more solutions than problems. "

Chen Yuanguang also wanted to cooperate with Musk, but he had no foundation before. This time, the other party took the initiative to find him, so there was no reason to let him go:

"Okay, I'm free anytime, please help me make an appointment."

Chen Yuanguang has gradually matured. Before, he thought that technology could solve everything, so after obtaining the golden finger that could go to the future, he felt that all problems could be solved if he maxed out his technological skills.

Reality told him that he couldn't rely on himself to improve his technology to the point where he could dominate the world, so before he reached a certain stage of development, he needed to rely on the existing system to strengthen himself as much as possible.

In the current environment in China, you need to demonstrate your tz value.

As giant companies, companies like Huawei and BYD that have made technological breakthroughs can be tolerated even if they engage in out-of-line behavior. However, Internet giants like Tencent and Ali will only face suppression if they engage in out-of-line behavior.

If you want to prove your irreplaceability, technology is one aspect, and the other is to mobilize enough capital, that is, social productivity.

The human hibernation technology is far from enough. Human hibernation can only be said to be a starting point and also a part of completing the primitive accumulation.

Chen Yuanguang chose the aerospace field. He founded Guangjia Aerospace Technology Company and planned to enter the asteroid mining field.

Like human hibernation technology, asteroid mining is also a very common concept in science fiction works, including Japan's Hayabusa 19 mining the asteroid "Ryugu" in .

However, this kind of mining has only research value but no economic value. Ryugu is a rocky asteroid, and only by mining metal asteroids can it bring economic benefits.

Mining metallic asteroids is more than an order of magnitude more difficult and complex than mining rocky asteroids.

Precisely because this direction is very difficult, Chen Yuanguang has enough confidence to produce results. It is a huge systematic project, and he can be an indispensable core figure in this project.

Before the entire project was completed, Chen Yuanguang believed that his ability to leverage social resources could be sustained, and that he could use this huge resource to do something of his own during the period.

When Chen Yuanguang was alone, he would wonder if it would be better if he didn't get the golden finger, so that he wouldn't have such a big responsibility and could live a simple life without worrying about being suddenly replaced or disappearing.

Of course, it would be fine if he didn't cause any trouble now and just quietly became a top student, but Chen Yuanguang was unwilling to do so. He had an ambition to change the world, and his middle school soul was burning.

"Hello, Wright, I often hear your name in Silicon Valley. Venture capitalists in Silicon Valley are very interested in you and think you are an outstanding newcomer and a representative figure in China's science and technology entrepreneurship." Musk was able to develop from a white South African to the world's richest man today, and was able to continuously obtain investment in the early stages. There is no doubt that he is flexible and speaks well.

Chen Yuanguang doesn't have much of a celebrity halo for Musk. He surfed the Internet too much when he was in college, and he knew a little about the dark histories of various celebrities, so he had long been demystified by these celebrities. No matter who you are, you are a human being, and everyone has human nature and weaknesses.

"Hello, Elon, nice to meet you. Many of my friends drive Teslas." He is also good at flattery.

"Tesla is indeed an excellent product. Among electric car brands, there are only Tesla and others." Musk seems particularly confident in this regard.

Chen Yuanguang laughed but did not express his opinion.

He has driven the Tesla that Lin Jia bought in order to apply for a green license plate. Isn't it purely about control?

Is this also a car? Chen Yuanguang's first reaction was when he drove it.

Musk said: "I am very interested in human hibernation technology, which will be a must-have technology for us to go to Mars.

It is hard to imagine how boring the journey would be for humans if they travel back and forth between Mars and Earth for a long time in the future without human hibernation technology.

Moreover, if there are large-capacity spacecraft in the future, we need to reduce unnecessary loads as much as possible in the early stages, so human hibernation is particularly important."

Chen Yuanguang quickly understood what the other party meant, "Yes, the journey to Mars is too long. Before there is a revolutionary change in energy, the excess load on the journey to Mars will have to give way to fuel.

With human hibernation technology, the weight of passengers' water, food, excrement, etc. can be avoided.

This will free up space for other more important items.”

Musk said: "Yes, I still have some questions that I hope to discuss with experts in the field of human hibernation.

How long can hibernation last?

According to the information I have obtained, that is, the human hibernation technology of Light Armor Technology, the sleeping time is about several days.

According to the current fastest probe, the New Horizons probe, it will take 39 days to reach Mars when it is closest to the Earth.

In the foreseeable future, we will modify the spacecraft and iterate the fuel, and it will take about 100 days for a manned spacecraft to fly.

What I want to do is to use AI to reduce the number of operators. In the early stages of Mars exploration, only one operator will be awake during the voyage.

He mainly does some judgment and manual repairs, and leaves most of the work to AI.

Everyone else goes into hibernation and takes turns to operate.

Can humans hibernate for such a long time? "

Chen Yuanguang thought that if it was future technology, people would have no problem hibernating for twenty years, so the operators who went to Venus to mine would probably have to sleep for a hundred days after starting from Earth.

The current Blue Star technology can also do this. It is no problem to keep the person awake for at least three days and hibernate for twenty days.
