Super-divine civilization begins with the civilian use of dark energy technology

Chapter 134 Satellite Launch Issues
Jiang Fan said directly: "For a graphene battery with the same volume as a lithium battery, the price of our battery is 50 times that of a lithium battery!"

"Take mobile phone batteries as an example. For a normal 1AH mobile phone lithium battery, we sell a Baineng graphene battery of the same size for 5000."

Qiao Guojin was stunned for a moment, then said: "Isn't it too expensive?"

A 5000 battery, although it can store a hundred times the energy of a lithium battery, is still too expensive.

"You can reduce the power storage and package it into the size of a mobile phone battery." Jiang Fan explained.

Qiao Guojin agreed: "This method is good. Batteries with different capacities are sold at different prices."

"I'll have someone make a price list and show it to you then."

"Are our electric trucks for sale?"

"If we sell it to others, we will set a high price."

Jiang Fan thought for a while and said: "According to the difference in storage capacity, make a model for internal use and a model for external sales!"

"You decide the price of the two electric trucks yourself."

Qiao Guojin nodded, and he was entrusted with the sales of Baineng graphene batteries.

Although he had expected this, once it was confirmed, his joy was beyond words.

He concurrently serves as the general manager of Pangu Xinhuo Company, but in fact he has not intervened in the management of other subsidiaries, which have their own heads.

As a professional manager, if the boss does not arrange it, he will not manage it randomly.

The position in Nongxing Company was very important, and he did not want to make Jiang Fan unhappy.

At this time, Jiang Fan officially handed over the affairs of Tianmeng Graphite and the automobile factory to him, which was a huge progress. Although his job title was still general manager, his rights were equivalent to that of a CEO with real power.

He said excitedly: "No problem, I will arrange the sale of Baineng graphene batteries and electric trucks."

"Boss, where is Meng Solar Energy that day?"

Jiang Fan thought for a moment and said, "Gu Yunwei is responsible for the solar panels. You can go find out about it, but it's best not to interfere."

Integrating high-energy-absorbing solar panels into the power grid requires reporting and dealing with the state. Gu Yunwei has always been doing this and is good at it.

Moreover, high energy-absorbing solar panels are a preferential product, and Qiao Guojin is not willing to deal with them.

Qiao Guojin looked thoughtful, there must be some reason why Jiang Fan refused to let him take care of Tianmeng Solar Energy.

As for the reason, he will know it after he learns more about Tianmeng Solar.

And he is quite satisfied. Now that Jiang Fan has handed over Baineng Graphene and the automobile factory to him, he will definitely make a lot of money with his ability.

But that was another matter. He turned his attention back to his planning report, continued the previous topic, and asked: "Boss, let me handle the sales of Baineng graphene batteries and cars. There will definitely be no shortage of Pangu firepower." Money.”

"Just customizing and launching communication satellites is still very troublesome. What is the boss going to do?"

Developing mobile phones is easy. The technology for satellite phones is already available. All you need to do is upgrade it and install a satellite antenna on your smartphone.

Baineng graphene batteries can save a lot of space, making it easy to install satellite antennas.It’s easy to develop mobile phones, but what about satellites?
Pangu Xinhuo does not have the ability to launch satellites by itself, so it can only find partners for cooperation.

Jiang Fan said directly: "I plan to cooperate with the country and fund the country to manufacture and launch satellites."

It would be fine if it were just one or two satellites, but he plans to launch [-] satellites. If the country does not participate, his launch application will not be approved.

Qiao Guojin was stunned for a moment, and then he was relieved. Xingnong Chemical Fertilizer can be produced by himself. The problem is not that big. Xingnong Chemical Fertilizer is just a compound and a basic material. It only has a huge improvement in agriculture.

Sooner or later it will be cracked. As long as it takes some time, the country should be able to crack it, so it's okay to do it alone.

Satellites are different from Xingnong Chemical Fertilizer. Satellites directly involve safety issues, and with [-] satellites, the state will definitely intervene.

It is right to cooperate with the country on satellites.

It’s just that the national launch cost is still too high, and China has not yet developed foreign rocket recyclable technology.

Even if you have money, you can’t waste it like this!

He looked at Jiang Fan, hesitated, and then expressed his worries: "Boss, our country does not have rocket recyclability technology, and the launch cost is too high. Why don't we launch satellites slowly?"

"Launch a few communication satellites in the early stage and maintain the Internet connection of satellite mobile phones."

Jiang Fan patted Qiao Guojin on the shoulder and said, "I have considered this. Now there is a very cost-effective technology, space-based satellite launch technology, and I plan to use this technology."

The full name is near space space-based platform rocket launch technology.

Recently, there has been a new test of this technology. The launch of a full-system sounding rocket is based on high-altitude balloons. In fact, simply speaking, it uses high-altitude balloons to bring the sounding rocket to an altitude of 25 to 40 kilometers, and then remotely controls it. This method of igniting and launching in the air and using high-altitude balloons is the first time in the world.

Of course, the rocket launched this time is different from our conventional understanding. For example, in the construction of the space station, the Long March [-] launch vehicle is responsible for transporting the Tianzhou series of cargo spacecraft, while the Long March [-] launch vehicle is responsible for transporting the Shenzhou series of manned spacecraft. The carrying capacity of these rockets bigger.

The sounding rocket is essentially different from these launch vehicles. It is a rocket that conducts detection and scientific experiments in near-Earth space. It can be regarded as an upgraded version of the sounding balloon.

At present, China's high-altitude atmospheric detection methods are relatively simple. At low altitudes, sounding balloons can be used. Once it exceeds 50 kilometers, sounding rockets need to be used. This is a relatively traditional rocket technology. It is not only high-cost but also very low-efficiency. The effect of use is not good, and the integrity of the detection chain of the underlying atmosphere is low.

This time, high-altitude balloons are used as a near-space space-based launch platform to transport sounding rockets to an altitude of 25 to 40 kilometers. Through remote control, the rockets are ignited and launched at high altitudes.

This means that the flight path of the rocket is shortened, so the size of the rocket can be reduced, which will significantly reduce launch and manufacturing costs.

This research reminded Jiang Fan that launching rockets at high altitudes is very creative.

This is the space-based launch system, which simply means launching rockets in the air.

Although the current national experiments only launch high-altitude atmospheric detection rockets, the principle is the same.

As long as the space base is strong enough, rockets carrying satellites can be launched.

The most common is to use jet aircraft for launch, such as the An-225 transport aircraft that was bombed some time ago. The original plan was to use it to launch the "Buran" space shuttle, and Orbital ATK's L-1011 Samsung passenger plane. It is used to launch the "Pegasus" XL rocket.

Of course, Jiang Fan plans to use none of these methods!
What he wanted was a more advanced approach.
