Chapter 500: Satellite Positioning Service Sales Plan

When the three satellites and Xu Damao arrived at the Yanshan Launch Center.

Leader Zhong from the General Armament Department, Leader Liu from the General Logistics Department, and Leader Li from the Science and Technology Commission have all come.

Originally, there were higher-level leaders who wanted to come, but considering that it was sent by ghosts and gods, they gave up.

"Da Mao, if the experiment is successful this time, how long do you plan to use it to build the network?"

Based on the speed at which Xu Damao produces these three satellites, it may take nearly a year to complete the network.

But Leader Zhong knew that practice makes perfect in many things, and Xu Damao had already prepared many key components.

It’s just that the assembly of other satellites has not yet been carried out.

Perhaps, it wouldn't take him that long to complete the positioning system networking work.

“Satellite positioning service is a very profitable business project.

As long as this experiment is successful, I will try my best to complete the networking before the Tianjin Military Exhibition in March next year.

At that time, we can promote it at the Tianjin Military Exhibition.

We will be able to launch the marine positioning terminal equipment at the Guangzhou Trade Fair in April!"

The satellite positioning system has high subsequent maintenance costs, so it is impossible for Xu Damao not to find a way to make money from it.

Therefore, we want to take advantage of the Tianjin Military Exhibition and the Yangcheng Trade Fair to promote the sales of positioning services.

“The sale of satellite positioning services has been discussed at the meeting.

As long as we can avoid leaking technical secrets, we are willing to sell it.

But have you ever thought about how to charge for this service, Damao?"

Leader Li from the Science and Technology Commission took over the conversation and said, "The satellite positioning system is the only one on Earth!"

They are still a little confused about how to price and position the service.

Now we can consult Xu Damao, the R&D staff, and see if he has any good ideas.

It can not only make money for the Republic, but also prevent the disclosure of technical secrets and prevent others from using its satellite positioning services for free.

“The periodic charging method didn’t work for us, so I designed some electronic components with a fixed lifespan.

By then, the satellite positioning terminals produced using these electronic components can only be used for five years.

When the usage period expires, a new positioning terminal must be purchased.

Moreover, in my opinion, it should be relatively cost-effective to equip a cargo ship worth millions or tens of millions of US dollars with a satellite positioning terminal worth hundreds of thousands.

As for the specific selling price, leaders can examine the profitability of cargo ships.

By then, we should have no problem asking for a few months’ profit from him.”

It is not appropriate to charge positioning service fees on a monthly or annual basis.

After all, the current republic is not yet qualified to charge fees from the whole world.

Therefore, Xu Damao can only make efforts to improve the service life of the positioning terminal!

“Well, this is a good idea, and we can also sell more positioning terminals.

But how do we restrict our enemies from using satellite positioning services on their military equipment? "

The three leaders were quite satisfied with Xu Damao's solution.

However, for Leader Zhong, how to restrict enemy countries and use satellite positioning systems in military applications is also a very important issue.

If this cannot be done, then the sales of this satellite positioning service will probably have to be temporarily cancelled!

"The leader doesn't have to worry about this since the other party can receive the signals sent by our satellite.

Then we can use satellite signals to directly force shut down a positioning terminal.

If we find that some countries are using satellite positioning terminals on weapons against our wishes.

Then you can perform precise positioning and shut down the service of a certain satellite positioning terminal individually!

Leaders can rest assured on this point.

After our satellite positioning system is networked, we can even conduct a few tests directly.

It just means scrapping a few positioning terminals. We can still afford this verification.”

The satellite positioning system would be very difficult to use if it couldn't locate the specific positioning terminal.

However, the system designed by Xu Damao has this function.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be so anxious to promote the sales of satellite positioning services!

"Okay, now that these two problems are solved, we can sell positioning services on a large scale!

This has created a new source of income for the country!

I think the annual output value is at least several billion US dollars.

Damao, if you were not too young, we could consider giving you another star on your shoulders!"

These leaders are already very clear about how useful the satellite positioning system is.

It was precisely because he was clear about this that Leader Liu said that Xu Damao's contribution was worthy of being awarded a general star.

If this was a national project, perhaps such a large reward would not be necessary.

But this time the satellite positioning system was basically completed by Xu Damao alone.

It would be a bit unreasonable if we don't give a better reward.

"No, I am now a major general and a department-level cadre.

If it really goes up, it would be too eye-catching!

It is better to maintain the status quo.

If the leader really feels bad for me, just promote me to an engineer level."

With Xu Damao's current achievements, it would not be excessive to give him the title of first-class chief engineer.

And if the reward is given in this way, there will be less gossip.

Even for Xu Damao, who has no intention of going into politics, this reward is better.

"Then I have to give you the rank of First-Class Chief Engineer. Otherwise, I will be really sorry for your contribution!

Hahaha……"

Xu Damao's request made Leader Liu happy, as it solved one of their problems.

"I agree with this, Damao should indeed be given the title of first-class chief engineer!

Later, you and I will jointly submit an application to the higher authorities."

Leader Zhong also agreed with this plan.

"It's almost time, leader, let's go launch the satellite first!"

It was already past four in the afternoon when I got here, and it was winter now.

It's already dark in the city at around 5 o'clock.

So, after discussing for such a long time, night had already fallen.

"Then let's get started!"

Leaders Zhong, Liu and Li adjusted their clothes.

They will meet the Lord of Thorn Hell next, so they have to be cautious.

Xu Damao symbolically played a Fu Zan card, and then the door to space opened.

Two teams of evil spirits led the way, and Bang Geng, who was riding a ghost horse, appeared!
