Technology derived

Chapter 1061

If recycling is not considered, the standard price of Space X's Falcon 9 launch vehicle is 6200 million US dollars.

And the manufacturing cost is only 1600 million US dollars, and the fuel cost is even lower, 20 US dollars!
And the manufacturing cost of Mortal Technology Starry Sky One is 1000 million US dollars, and the fuel cost is 15 US dollars!
If the same quotation is 6200 million US dollars, the profit is completely unimaginable!

Space X's Falcon giant launch vehicle, the standard quotation is 9000 million US dollars, and the cost is about 2500 million US dollars!
And the cost of Xingkong Juyi is only 1500 million U.S. dollars. If the same quotation is 9000 million U.S. dollars, the profit will definitely exceed Space X!

More importantly, even with the same quotation, the maximum payload of the launch vehicles of the Mortal Sky series is about half higher than that of the Falcon series, which is more competitive!
It can be said that compared with SpaceX's Falcon series, Mortal Star's Starry Sky series launch vehicles have complete advantages, whether it is cost or payload.

The only problem is that Elon Musk's Falcon series launch vehicle has already been built.

And Wang Fan's starry sky series launch vehicle is still on the PPT, no, even the PPT is not done yet!

Of course, if rocket recovery is considered, then it will be a completely different result!
If the first stage of the rocket is recovered and reused, the cost of the rocket can be reduced by another 70%.

If both the first and second stages can be recycled and reused, 98% of the cost can be saved!
Once this is the case, the launch vehicle will become the price of Chinese cabbage!

Launch once, only 2% of the cost!
For example, for Xing Kong No. 1000, the cost of the rocket is 20 million, and the cost of fuel is only [-] U.S. dollars once.

If the two-stage rocket is fully recovered and repeated 100 times, the cost of each rocket is only 10, and the fuel is 20, which adds up to a cost of 30 US dollars!
Of course, the necessary maintenance cost, plus other expenses, the total cost can also be controlled at about one million US dollars.

Compared with the current cost of tens of millions, it is simply too cheap!

But the quotation can be 6000 million, because this is currently the lowest price in the industry!

There is no need for Wang Fan to knock down the price by 1000 million for this!
What's more, recycling 100 times is only an ideal state, and accidents are inevitable, so the price must retain enough profit margins!

In this way, a commercial launch is a profit of more than 5000 million US dollars!
In fact, such a high profit is completely taken for granted.

To make a simple analogy, a launch vehicle is a car.

Now it's rocket launch one, blow up one.That is, drive once, blow up one, and then buy a new car again.

Once it's fully recovered, it's one to drive, just fill up and keep driving!

The cost of buying a car is completely incomparable with the cost of simply refueling.

Launch vehicle here, same

It can be said that the profit of the launch vehicle is completely huge, but the technical difficulty is too great!
After all, there are only a few high-end clubs like launch vehicles in the world, and the only ones that can achieve recycling are space x, which is only the first stage of rocket recycling!
Although Wang Fan has no mass production, he has perfect technical information.

He has enough confidence to let Mortal Starry Sky overtake on a curve!

At that time, the Mortal Starry Sky family can completely break the pattern of global starry sky exploration.

For example, the European Union launched navigation satellites and established the Galileo navigation system.

It may cost 1 million U.S. dollars to launch a launch with its own rocket, and the price of space X is 6000 million U.S. dollars.

If you pass the price of Mortal Starry Sky, it is only 4000 million US dollars.

It is much cheaper than the cost of their own launch. Do you think they will continue to burn money and launch it themselves, or save a sum of money and hand it directly to Mortal Starry Sky?

You can know the answer by thinking about it with your nose!

It can be said that the launch vehicle is a high-end club with huge profits!
After figuring this out, Wang Fan directly held a related meeting.

First, communicate with Dugu Shuai about the layout of the mortal navigation.

For Wang Fan's plan, Dugu Shuai didn't believe it at all at first, but he was dumbfounded when he saw Wang Fan's specific plan.

I was locked in the office alone, and studied for three days. Except for going to the toilet and eating, I didn't even go out.

Three days later, Dugu Shuai found Wang Fan early in the morning and said bluntly:

"Wang Dong, Wang Dong, you are a genius. The mortal navigation system you designed, from satellite deployment to ground reception layout, has no problems at all!"

Wang Fan nodded: "You can study clearly in three days, you are also a talent."

Dugu Shuai has a black line: "Chairman, don't bury me! Once such a mortal navigation system is deployed, GPS, GLONASS, Beidou, Galileo, built or unbuilt, can be discontinued." .Compared with your mortal navigation, they are things from the last world. For example, your mortal navigation is a mortal mobile phone, and their GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and Beidou are all functional phones, right? , it's Big Brother!"

Wang Fan was dumbfounded, looked at Dugu Shuai again, and said meaningfully: "Aren't you good at flattering people? Why did you fall out with the Beidou authorities and still can't find a job?"

"Ahem." Dugu Shuai smiled awkwardly:
"Well, chairman, I'm not flattering, I really admire you. Those people, a bunch of scum, except the old ones let me obey, bah! But you, I really admire you. If you have to talk about the realm of the navigation system, it is the final realm of Dugu Qiubai, there is no way to win, but there is a way!"

"I'll do it!" Wang Fan shook his head, "I don't even know what to say about your flattery!"

"Haha." Dugu Shuai laughed and said:

"The only question now is whether the satellites of the level you mentioned can be mass-produced? There is also the issue of launch, which I doubt. After all, according to what you are doing, the cost of satellite design will have to go up Tens of billions of dollars! There are also launch costs, ground deployment costs..."

The cost of a launch vehicle is 6000 million US dollars, which is considered cheap.

Satellites, on the other hand, are expensive according to their grades.

For example, the Big Bird spy satellite of the United States costs hundreds of millions of dollars each, and a secret spy satellite launched recently is said to cost as much as 10 billion US dollars!
Similarly, for mortal navigation, 24 satellites alone cost tens of billions!
Wang Fan nodded: "That's right, you get what you pay for. Satellites of our precision, quality, and longevity are bound to cost a lot. There's no way around that. But you don't have to worry about launch costs!"

"Okay, I'll start to organize manpower and carry out related work. There is no way for the sky, but the ground, software and other structures have begun to be deployed." Dugushuai has participated in the research and development of Beidou and is very familiar with these.
