Chapter 300 Lunar Cemetery
“No way, we are not this kind of people.”
Since Qualcomm and MediaTek terminated the originally signed supplementary agreement, these manufacturers have expressed their concerns about the establishment of the partnership. In the matter of the three-party chip design companies, everyone has their own agenda again.
This matter must be done for sure. In the long run, this thing is very important. If OPPO had not succeeded in tape-out in 2023, Washington would not have been so quick.
But now that high-end chips from Qualcomm and MediaTek can be sold for takeout, the urgency of this matter has plummeted.
Not that urgent.
“I also agree that we should jointly set up a chip design company to integrate resources.
To do this, I think there are several issues we need to think about.
Because Mr. Lei also mentioned just now that he brought in Guangjia Aerospace. Although Mr. Lin from Guangjia Aerospace did not attend in person, Guangjia Aerospace also sent representatives to the scene. ”
< br>This refers to Li Haide, as the vice president in charge of investment of Guangjia Aerospace, he said nothing at the meeting and remained silent throughout the meeting.
Asked for his opinion, he would say no. Guangjia Aerospace only cares about its own shareholding and investment ratio. As for whether Butterfly Chip should be used as an asset to invest in shares, it doesn't matter to them.
“I think we need to think about a question, that is, does this chip company only need to be composed of the five companies we are present? Because of the presence of Guangjia Aerospace, it will naturally have strong appeal and attraction.
We can expand the scope of the entire chip design.
It should not only include smartphone chips, but also automotive chips. Xiaomi itself also builds new energy vehicles. We should look for it. Some new energy manufacturers will invest and expand the scale of the entire market." Liu Zuohu put forward a new point of view.
If we focus on the sharing of butterfly chips, except for Honor, the opinions of other companies are unanimous, which is not conducive to OPPO's price bargaining.
They can muddy the waters by replacing the previous issue with a more promising one.
"Yuanguang, I'm sorry." Lin Jia consoled him after waiting for Chen Yuanguang's special plane in Yangcheng.
Chen Yuanguang held her hand: "Actually, I'm fine. The old man passed away at the age of eighty-eight. I'm definitely sad.
Be able to spend the last period of his life without illness or pain. Time and not suffering too much pain, I think this is something to be happy about.
I will miss him in my heart.”
The person who died was Chen Yuanguang's grandfather. He had a total of four children, of which Chen Qingzhi was the third. The other three were all women, so Chen Qingzhi inherited most of the property.
After receiving a call from Chen Qingzhi, Chen Yuanguang immediately found someone to arrange a special flight to Yangcheng.
Because Yangcheng is close to Southeast Asia and there are many black people, sufficient security personnel must be arranged.
After everything was ready, he got on the flight to Yangcheng.
After returning to his home in Yangcheng after worshiping at the mourning hall, Chen Yuanguang asked: "What are the arrangements next?"
"Now your aunt is going to the great monk of Guangxiao Temple to calculate the date. After calculating the suitable date, she will be buried.
After calculating the date, she plans to bury her in the Galaxy Revolutionary Cemetery."< br>
It is impossible for ordinary people to be buried in Yangcheng. This place is called the Revolutionary Cemetery. Naturally, there are particular requirements for burial personnel and certain conditions must be met.
Except for public officials, anyone who wants to be buried inside must submit a written application from a unit above a certain level, and can only enter after approval.
But with Chen Yuanguang’s status, these are not problems.
After hearing this, Chen Yuanguang hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Why don't you bury the old man there?"
After he finished speaking, he pointed to the sky.
“On the moon.” Chen Yuanguang said.
This year's Guangjia Aerospace's composite rocket exploded twice, and the third launch has not started yet. Chen Qingzhi seems to be enjoying traveling around, but in fact he is always paying attention to his son's career. .
Chen Yuanguang’s contribution to the chip field cannot offset the lack of breakthroughs in the commercial aerospace field of Guangjia Aerospace throughout this year.
Chen Qingzhi knew this very well, and his subconscious reaction was: "What if it explodes halfway up after being launched?"
"It's impossible. We won't use a new model of rocket to send him up. It must be a rocket that has already passed the test." After full verification, the rocket sent him to the moon.
I think this way, no matter where the Chen family is on the moon, they can commemorate their ancestors by looking up at the moon. < br>
We are planning to launch a similar service, the lunar cemetery, in the next two years.”
Space funerals have a long history, and the first space funeral was held as early as 1997.
Only instead of launching to the moon, it launches into space, allowing the ashes of the deceased to turn into dust in space.
At the back is American, a company that specializes in space funeral services. They have upgraded the original system by putting ashes into containers and letting the containers drift in low-Earth orbit.
The price is naturally very expensive. It is charged by the gram, and you will be charged about 10,000 yuan per gram.
If a deceased adult is completely burned into ashes, regardless of the missing arms and legs, the weight is about 1,500 grams, which is 15 million yuan.
"Moon Cemetery?
I do know about space funerals. Some friends around me want to do this. They say that scattering ashes into the sea is no longer unusual, and sending yourself into space is romantic enough. "Chen Qingzhi said.
Chen Yuanguang said: "Yu Guangzhong has a poem called "Deng Yuantong Temple". I don't know if you have heard of it.
There is this sentence in it: You ascend the constellation, you and Fei Changfang are together, you return to the troposphere, and you send me to the atomic rain and breathe dust.
This poem is a poem in memory of his mother. This sentence means that his deceased mother has become a fairy in heaven.
If commercial aerospace wants to create value, it has to find some gimmicks.
The commercial department of Guangjia Aerospace has proposed that space funerals can be carried out, but we hope to do something different from other commercial aerospace companies in this industry, so we thought of a lunar cemetery.
NASA is also working on this project. Their commercial space funeral project is to send human ashes to an area on the moon named Dead Lake.
But they are just sending the ashes up. As for where they will be floated after reaching the top, NASA will not care.
We are different. We serve all the way from launch to burial to erecting a monument.
I thought that by making the old man our first customer, I, as my grandson, would be showing my filial piety.
The biggest advantage of being on the moon is that the possibility of not being disturbed is definitely greater than on the earth. "
"This is a bit too radical. I'm not sure your grandma and your aunt can accept such a radical plan. Chen Qingzhi said: "I think it's okay." "Ask me, remember to say something, I promise there will be no problem, there is no way it will explode in mid-air." "Chen Yuanguang said.
America company called Celestis has already conducted a lunar funeral, and they sent a group of people's ashes up there.
< br>But the price is also quite expensive. As mentioned earlier, the price of a single gram of ashes sent to the earth's orbit is 10,000 yuan. If it is sent to the moon, the price of a single gram is 12,000 US dollars.
The company claims that the first 50 reservations can enjoy a discounted price of $9,950 per gram.
If you go back further, it can be traced back to 1999, when a NASA geologist named Eugene had his ashes sent to the moon's crater by NASA.
"How was it?" Lin Jia asked at night.
“I don’t know, it depends on their thoughts. How should I put it? Compared with being buried on the moon and being buried in the homeland, there is no difference between the two. It just depends on the acceptance of the family.
I’m not sure what choice they will make.”
Guangjia Aerospace provides space funeral services entirely for European and American wealthy people. There are always only a few wealthy people from Laos and China who can accept this.
Europe and the United States have always been at the forefront of the times in this regard. Both new and old money have a very high acceptance of this system.
Not to mention the rich people in Silicon Valley.
If this kind of service is priced in US dollars, the annual revenue can easily exceed tens of billions of dollars.
And it can suppress American colleagues to the point where they can’t hold their heads up. You pay ten thousand dollars per gram, and you just send it to the moon.
Our Guangjia Aerospace provides one-stop services from transportation to burial to monument erection.
If your family and friends want to take a look, it is not impossible to set up a camera in front of the lunar cemetery for you.
Whether there is war or a vast sea in the future, it is possible that cemeteries on the earth will be dug up, but it is impossible for those on the moon, right?
Guangjia Aerospace not only wants to develop financial resources from this aspect, but also snatches the entire cake from its foreign counterparts.
Can the White House prevent American companies and various institutions from cooperating with Guangjia Aerospace? The various institutions here refer not only to NASA, but also to universities and research institutes that have some needs to launch satellites.
The White House can't let the ashes of local wealthy people leave the country without being transported, right?
Guangjia Aerospace can be considered as indirectly opening up the Amerikan market.
As for asking my grandfather, I also wanted to fulfill my filial piety and ask what my family meant.
It may be that being sent to space conflicts with the traditional concept of resting in the grave, but this opportunity is indeed rare. If it hadn’t been for the figure Chen Yuanguang, even with the Chen family’s net worth, they would have wanted to It is not easy to bury people on the moon.
In short, Chen Qingzhi did not reply to him immediately.
The day after Chen Yuanguang returned, local officials collectively came to express their condolences.
Of course, no matter whether Chen Yuanguang comes back in person or not, they will come, just at the right time.
If Chen Yuanguang does not come back, then they will come to the door on the last day, and they will definitely come back on the day Chen Yuanguang comes back.
"Yuanguang, I express my condolences to you. The old man has made outstanding contributions to the development of Yangcheng throughout his life."
Although it is no longer an era when GDP is in charge, promotion is no longer solely based on GDP. Yes, but Yangcheng is still very sour.
A figure like Chen Yuanguang appeared in the local area, but in the end he didn't get any benefits at all.
Even when Guangjia enterprises returned to Guangdong Province, they were in Pengcheng instead of Yangcheng.
Guangjia companies are all high-tech industries, and in a sense, one company can drive the development of the entire industry.
Taking Guangjia Aerospace as an example, Shenhai has developed rapidly in commercial aerospace in recent years, and the entire industry has surpassed Yanjing.
You know, in the past, Yanjing has always been far ahead of other cities in the commercial aerospace field thanks to the large number of universities and aerospace companies in Yanjing.
But in just five years, Shenhai, driven by Guangjia Aerospace, has developed a number of local commercial aerospace companies, which have surpassed Yanjing in terms of output value, revenue and employment scale.
After the Guangjia Aerospace headquarters is finally located in Shenhai, this momentum will become even greater.
There are also semiconductors, new energy and photovoltaics, which can drive the development of the entire industry.
Obviously they are one of their own, but the Chen family can be considered a complete local faction in Yangcheng. Chen's father used to be a civil servant, and the older generation who died this time was also a civil servant in Yangcheng.
The Chen family had not been treated badly before the demolition, and there was no unpleasant past. As a result, such a number one person, Yangcheng, did not benefit from it at all.
Even if Jiangcheng has only trained Chen Yuanguang for four years, every year the Guangjia-type companies will give extra preferential treatment to Jiang University graduates when recruiting. This also resulted in the score line of Jiang University being ten points higher than that of Jiangcheng University of Science and Technology.
Yangcheng really didn’t touch anything.
I feel aggrieved no matter what I think.
After paying his condolences, the other party asked Chen Yuanguang to have a casual meal together in the evening. Chen Yuanguang could not refuse.
Chen Yuanguang knew the purpose of the other party's visit very well. After the greetings at the dinner party, he said:
“I really want to contribute to the development of Yangcheng.”
After briefly introducing the past and present of space funerals, he said:
“This industry itself is almost blank in China. , and lacks legal support, but it is indeed a huge market
We calculate it based on the one-stop service of the lunar cemetery at 100 million yuan, and the low-Earth orbit at 1 million yuan, one year. It is actually very simple to achieve a revenue of tens of billions of dollars.”
Chen Yuanguang was afraid that the other party would look down on this business, so by stating the scale first, it was equivalent to leaving the tax to Yangcheng.
"The reason why we are willing to keep this business in Yangcheng is that it is relatively close to Southeast Asia and can directly radiate to the wealthy groups in Southeast Asia."
There are also many wealthy people in Southeast Asia, and there are potential There are many customer groups.
“We Chinese people are very particular about retiring to their graves. After all, the wealthy group with ideas is a minority, but in foreign countries, there are very few people with similar ideas. We have provided them with a new choice.
< br>Especially in Southeast Asia, their management is not so strict, and cemeteries are dug up from time to time. If there is an organization with strong credibility to provide such services, it will be very popular
Not to mention. When we talk about developed countries in Europe and the United States, they are even more enthusiastic about it," added Lin Jia, who also attended the dinner.
"Yes, this industry is mainly aimed at foreigners. China's wealthy people are highly receptive to space funerals, not only because of the burial itself.
There is also the fact that they don't want to show off their wealth and shoot them down. Among them is the idea that a lunar funeral costs 100 million U.S. dollars. There are many wealthy Chinese who can afford this amount, but there are still only a few who dare to do it publicly." explained the local boss.
