After the "Jianghu relations" on the American side represented by David Rockefeller are communicated in place, the second-hand communication satellite of the Gulf western company is taken over by the Asian satellite communication company, and the communication satellite freely chooses the launch service, there will be no variables, and then straighten out the relationship between the forces behind the equity structure of the Asian satellite communication company, It means that Sir Gao can let go and let his subordinates be responsible for the daily operation of specific Asian satellite communication companies.
In other words, AsiaSat is a part of Xiangjiang International Digital Center and Xiangjiang digital expressway. When necessary, there is no need to hide its information. For example, AsiaSat and the oil rolling company have their own first commercial communication satellite. Although it is second-hand, it includes service life Some parameters including performance indicators basically retained the appearance at the beginning of design and manufacturing, and began to look for commercial launch service providers around the world. All of them were disclosed to the public, which can be regarded as advertising for listing on Xiangjiang United stock exchange in the future.
The effect of this advertisement is quite eye-catching, making the executives of Asian satellite communication company and Xiangjiang communication company become VIP guests in the main office of one of the few Aerospace powers in the world. There are too many things that can be done for this communication opportunity. Otherwise, in the eyes of marquis, the failure of the commercial communication satellite launch of Gulf western company can also become a good thing.
Generally speaking, the cost of putting a communication satellite into the scheduled orbit is about US $30 million, which is not a small amount for even commercial launch service providers supported by Zhengfu resources.
It is precisely because of the support of Zhengfu's resources that if we can do a business, we can reduce some financial burden for Zhengfu. And aerospace technology also follows some simple principles, such as the more you use, the more proficient you are.
In addition, the significance of commercial satellite launch is also self-evident.
In this case, AsiaSat has the capital to take a look at it. It has been warmly entertained in France, yiben and other Zhengfu.
As a result of the initial contact, the European Space Agency seems to meet the requirements most, and there is no need to elaborate on its technology. In particular, its space launch center is located in French Guiana on the Atlantic coast in the north of South America, close to the equator and low latitude, which is of great benefit to rocket launch, and its advantages are no worse than the Kennedy Space Center of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration of the United States.
The media's analysis of who spent this commercial satellite launch order also tends to the European Space Agency. After all, the British National Space Center is also a member of the European Space Agency, and from the implementation history of Xiangjiang large-scale project, suppliers from Europe are frequent customers on the bid winning list.
Even the National Aeronautics and Space Administration of the United States has nothing to say. The space shuttle Challenger exploded and crashed 73 seconds after taking off, shocking the world. No matter how good your technology is, there are problems in management, and it is not normal to lose the trust of customers.
After listening to the reports of Niu Bijian, Yan Leihui and others, sir Gao did not make it clear whether he supported it, so he decided to choose the European Space Agency to launch the first commercial communication satellite of AsiaSat, but said meaningfully that AsiaSat is still one of the ordinary customers for the European Space Agency and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration of the United States.
Niu Bijian, Yan Leihui and others looked at each other. The truth is true. What else do we want?
Gao Xian slowly threw out his ideas. In October 1985, China officially announced that the long march series carrier rockets were launched into the international satellite launch service market and contracted the business of launching satellites for foreign countries. When you went to Europe, Japan and other places, I learned from the relationship that although the Long March 3 rocket is not the most technologically advanced in the world, However, with its own integration and the continuous success of recent launch missions, it is not a big deal to put the first commercial communication satellite of AsiaSat into orbit.
If we can conclude this commercial launch contract with China, it will become the first order for China to enter the international satellite launch service market. It is of extraordinary significance, and we can take this to consolidate our existing relations.
New Bijian, Yan Leihui and others suddenly realized, but their concerns also came immediately. Although China's aerospace technology has entered the high orbit club, it can not be denied that there must be risks that can not be ignored in China's first order to enter the international satellite launch service market, and China is still a blank in the commercial operation mechanism other than aerospace technology such as commercial insurance.
Gao Xian nodded. Your concerns are very reasonable, but from my experience in communicating with the mainland for so many years, he is very good at concentrating on major events and making many innovations. Those gaps will not constitute a real gap. If we provide assistance in the process of establishing the mechanism, we can just get further business trust.
After some communication, new Bijian, Yan Leihui and others have digested Sir Gao's ideas and formed a consensus. From the perspective of maximizing the interests of Gao's consortium, it will be an optimal solution if they can sign this commercial communication satellite launch contract with China. Just as the saying goes, they can get more things for almost the same money.
Seeing that there was no objection, Gao Xian pointed out that the matchmaking work in the mainland has been done well. Contact relevant departments there, including the Commission of science, technology and industry for national defense and the Ministry of aerospace industry, as soon as possible to see what progress can be made.
Niu Bijian, Yan Leihui and others immediately took orders and led a team to the north for several rounds of negotiation and investigation.
This operation has not been concealed. What is meaningful is that there are more strange words in public opinion than in contact with the European Space Agency. For example, the rocket fairing is made of bamboo.
Such biased clamor does not need to waste too much ink. Gao Xian knows who to trust. Asian satellite communication company and Xiangjiang telecom company have also steadily promoted Sir Gao's idea under the pressure of all kinds of ridicule. To sum up, it is generally smooth, and both sides are happy. Gao's consortium has gained more than the launch of commercial satellites.
At this time, another new interpretation popped up in Xiangjiang media. The launch of the first commercial communication satellite of Asian satellite communication company and the selection of an unexpected launch service provider may be related to a long-standing resentment, that is, expressing dissatisfaction with the Hong Kong government's sudden suppression of BTV, the most influential television station in Xiangjiang.
To put it bluntly, sir Gao is unhappy, which makes the Hong Kong government, which is always public relations by European suppliers, uncomfortable in the implementation of major projects.
This speculation has a nose and eyes, so that a reporter asked questions at the regular media communication meeting of Xiangjiang exchange fund administration. As a result, irrelevant questions were ignored, but it became more popular.
