Chapter 904

"Why is it indefinitely delayed again?"

Zhuang Jianye was delayed before he came, but when he arrived at the launch center, it became an indefinite delay. You should know that delay and indefinite delay are completely different concepts in the aerospace field where the concept of time is accurate to a few decimal points after seconds.

You should know that at this moment, the chang-4 rocket in charge of launching has completed the final assembly, part of the fuel has been filled, and it's OK to shoot out. Once it stops, many parts inside the chang-4 rocket will be damaged due to the corrosion of the fuel. At that time, the cost and time of replacing the parts will be a ten minute process.

So not to mention the indefinite delay, even if the delay is a few hours, Zhuang Jianye can't stand it.

"Contact Motorola immediately and make sure you understand why." Zhuang Jianye immediately ordered his assistant child to contact Motorola. At the same time, the commander of the launch center and others came to inquire about the situation.

Without waiting for Zhuang Jianye to deal with it, the phone call from the head of the capital headquarters came at this moment and said, "what's the situation? How did you delay the launch? "

Zhuang Jianye was one of the first two. But at this time, when the Chinese and foreign reporters outside the launch center building learned that Zhuang Jianye, the leader of Tengfei group, who was responsible for the launch mission, was coming, they were ready to come in and interview with each other, pushing and shoving with the staff of the launch center who blocked it, which made the scene a mess.

As for the distance, many people look on coldly and look at Zhuang Jianye's exhausted jokes. They will gloat for a long time and say: "a person who is engaged in aviation still wants to do aerospace, but he doesn't look in the mirror. It's a big game. It's all over the city before it's launched. Now, how can he end up?"

It's no wonder that the onlookers satirized Zhuang Jianye so much. For the commercial launch, Zhuang Jianye not only invited the major media to report, but also urged a heavyweight media in Beijing to live broadcast the launch. Not to mention that, he invited a number of mainstream media from abroad to report.

Zhuang Jianye's meaning is very obvious, is to use this successful commercial launch to do a free global advertising.

The problem is that the launch must be successful in order to have an effect. If it fails, it will not only have no effect, but will encounter unexpected backfire, and may even directly interrupt the process of Tengfei group's entry into the aerospace field.

Other people can understand this, and Zhuang Jianye can understand it. So he didn't pay attention to the Chinese and foreign reporters outside the door, let alone the envious little shrimps. Instead, he followed the commander of the launch center, Liang Xiaoping and others, to an empty conference room.

After waiting for a while, he didn't see the child coming back. Zhuang Jianye was also in a hurry, so he took out his cell phone and quickly pressed a number. When he got through, he was not polite and asked directly, "merlinz, you should make a good connection with me. Why did Motorola delay the launch?"

"Zhuang, I knew you would call me, but my friend, you can cause me hundreds of millions of dollars of losses this time..."

"If it's because of me, I'll take it." Before merlinz finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhuang Jianye.

Merlinz on the other end of the phone said with a smile: "I like you so decisive, Zhuang. It's a pity that you are not in the United States, otherwise your achievements will be limitless. As a result, such talented people are delayed by China with backward technology as a whole Just like this time, there is no problem with your chang-4 rocket, but the support capability of the launch site needs to be discussed. We have just received the weather forecast from the U.S. Meteorological Agency about the weather around the west field. There will be charged cumulonimbus clouds over the west field in the next 50 days. You know, the carrier rocket is most afraid of this kind of weather, so this period is not suitable for launch. As for next year... "

After a while, he seemed to drink something to moisten his throat. Then he said slowly: "in the first half of the year, there were a lot of cloudy and rainy weather in Xichang, and the problem of the earth's autobiography angle was also not suitable for launching, so I can't help but postpone it indefinitely! "

Merlinz said this as if he was joking. Zhuang Jianye's teeth were itching, but he couldn't say a word of refutation. He had to hold his breath and chat for a while before hanging up the phone. Then he immediately looked at Liang Xiaoping and the commander of launch center with a calm face: "I just asked. The Americans said that their meteorological department predicted that we would have a belt over Xichang in the next 50 days Electric cumulonimbus, there is no launch window period, I would like to ask, is the American weather forecast accurate, or our own accurate! "

……

At the same time, in a high-end hotel in Shanghai, merlinz put down his mobile phone, smiling like a blooming chrysanthemum. He took a glass of red wine on the table, sipped it slightly, like aftertaste, like balderdash, and said: "my dear Zhuang, it's the first time I've seen you so anxious for so many years. En ~ ~ Yes, I can make you anxious appropriately A little ~ ~ "

with that, merlinz picked up the phone next to him again, dialed a number skillfully, and then slowly said," I'll just say it once, you remember it clearly... "

……

At the reception desk of the west field satellite launch center, Michael o'trayne, a reporter from the Houston space news, just came out of the bathroom, saw a large group of colleagues come in dejectedly, and quickly welcomed them to ask Elena, a reporter from Sky TV: "hi ~ ~ what's the matter with you? Didn't you interview that village? ""Good luck to you, o'trayne. He was very proud. He followed the staff of the launch center to the office building of the launch center without even looking at us. Really, it's the first time I've seen such a rude person to the media."

Elena didn't speak, but Quinn, the photographer behind her, complained about it all.

Otlain can't help but frown: "he even refused to live for him that national heavyweight media?"

"Of course, but it seems that those people don't care. After all, it's not free media. It doesn't matter!" Quinn said sarcastically, and at the same time, he went to the heavyweight media. In front of the live broadcast vehicle marked with xxtv, several staff members were doing the debugging work before the live broadcast. They looked meticulous, as if they could devote themselves to a great cause in the next moment.

Otlain can't help but sneer: "it's OK to work hard, but the reality is in vain, and I don't know if those heavyweight media people will cry when they hear the truth."

Quinn didn't mean much when she said that, but with the intuition of media people for many years, Elena quickly caught the implied meaning of otlain's words, stopped, turned her pretty face and asked, "Mr. odlain, did you just say 'the truth'? Do you have any inside information? "

"Of course!" Altrian also did not hide, and gave Elena a brilliant smile: "this time, the launch of Tengfei group is doomed to fail, and will pay more than one billion dollars in compensation for this!"
