"How much influence will you have on the strategy of the Coastline Group after leaving office? Will you return in the future? Are there other tasks that need to be initiated, completed or handed over?"

Near the end of the annual meeting, Ye Hua, who was about to leave, was arrested by a reporter from Jinghua News Agency and spoke quickly and fluently.

Ye Hua nodded affirmatively and replied as he walked: "Of course, there is no doubt. I am still a director of the Coastline Group. My current responsibility to the company is not to formulate operating plan details, but to adhere to the original vision and mission of the coastline , Values, strategy. As long as these original intentions are not forgotten, the coastline will not be turbulent. "

"In fact, when the news of my retirement came out, I noticed that someone 'predicted' that I might come back one day. But it turns out that I rarely intervene in the company's operations and management throughout the year, and the company's development momentum is not any problem. , The company's entire operating mechanism and team mechanism are running very smoothly. In this year, most of the work and business of the coastline was done by He Hao. We will spend a few days every month to communicate well, I fully believe He Hao and his team will do better and better. "

"At present, I am still responsible for the operation of the light of life, including the construction of the entire ecosystem of the group company, the construction of corporate culture, and cross-regional trade coordination. In the next year, the light of life also needs to be handed over to Hao them. "

After answering the reporter's question, Ye Hua entered the car that was parked beside him, and gradually extended into the car.

...

With the successful conclusion of the New Year's Eve activities, on January 1, 2023, the coastline company took a three-day holiday directly. At most, less than three weeks of work was the Spring Festival holiday.

The coastline company should definitely not work overtime on vacation days. Overtime counts as a loser.

Next Tuesday, January 3rd, Elon Musk will fly to North America from North America.

Facing Ye Hua's invitation, he agreed without saying a word, and pushed out some of the original schedules and rushed to meet him.

At about 10 am, Elon Musk, who arrived in Yongzhen, came to the sea on the side of Shuangyue Bay and met Ye Hua in a luxurious business yacht.

The two sides said a few words in person, Ye Hua said straightforwardly: "Mr. Musk, I want to know how many launch resources your company has for SpaceX this year?"

Elon Musk couldn't help but listen for a while. This time Ye Hua invited himself over in his name. Musk thought that there should be more important business topics to discuss, most of which were in the area of ​​Huidong New Area pilot and unmanned autonomous driving. related.

I did not expect to talk about SpaceX's launch resources. A moment later, Elon Musk frankly replied: "This year's launch resources should have 14 launches at any time, and of course, if there are enough business orders, SpaceX can take on 20 this year. Pen launch business, but only two days have passed this year. According to the existing launch business, we have undertaken the launch service of ESA's Galileo positioning system. There are mainly 9 launch services. This year, we will launch three times for ESA, and 6 will be launched. The satellite went into orbit. "

Ye Hua nodded and said with a smile: "Man, I am going to launch 86 wireless transmission satellites into space this year. This is not a small satellite. The average mass of each satellite is 1.75 tons. SpaceX currently has up to one launch resource. Double arrow, how about it? Is this list interesting? "

"My God Mr. Ye, are you going to launch 86 satellites this year?" Elon Musk looked at him with a shocked expression, where did he get so many satellites in a year? Well, it has nothing to do with me, and I jumped up and down in no time, and said without hesitation on the spot: "Of course I'm interested. SpaceX can provide launch services for your company is our pleasure."

Ye Hua did not care what he said. Musk was also a savvy person. He thought about the launch resources of SpaceX this year. I am afraid that he wo n’t be able to win all the launch services of the coastline company. And it is the case of a double star.

SpaceX's current commercial launch cost is about $ 45 million. Elon Musk's recyclable rocket launch is at least 70% cheaper than traditional commercial launch costs. This is the main reason that SpaceX has a strong competitiveness in the launch business. the reason.

The European Space Agency itself can certainly launch the rocket business, but it is too expensive. It will cost about 100 million euros to launch it once. Where is that much money and the requirements for the launch window are high?

Ye Hua disclosed a launch business worth US $ 2.2 billion this time, a proper super fat list, thinking about it for a moment, Elon Musk couldn't help but said, "Mr. Ye, must we launch 86 within this year? ? "

Obviously, this statement exposed the idea of ​​"Iron Man" wanting to eat alone, but helplessly SpaceX's launch resources are also limited, and the company's full launch power can only hit 20 rounds a year.

Such frequent commercial launch missions have never been done before, and SpaceX will not be stupid to create so many "two kicks".

"Yes!" Ye Hua nodded surely, adding: "Since SpaceX can only take half of the launch order, the remaining half will be handed over to my country's traditional launch. Of course, our own launch resources remain. If you ca n’t eat this half, you have to get the Russians to help. "

When he heard this, Elon Musk was very heartbroken. The $ 2.2 billion business order shrank in half instantly. He knew that it was time to prepare more "two kicks". He also heard from Ye Hua's tone. Coastline satellite launches will not wait for SpaceX to expand capacity.

"I have another request," Ye Hua said suddenly.

"You say."

"The ESA launch business was postponed, and the remaining resources were transferred to my launch business, giving priority to the launch of light for my life." Ye Huaru said.

"This ..." Elon Musk immediately explained with a dilemma: "Mr. Ye, I'm afraid this is not possible, SpaceX has signed an agreement with ESA, and we cannot breach the contract ..."

"I read your agreement ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ It is said that the liquidated damages amounted to 450 million euros (500 million U.S. dollars)." Ye Hua interrupted his words, smiled and looked at Elon Musk and then calmly said. A sentence: "I help you pay this penalty for SpaceX, and I will raise the cost of each launch to 70 million U.S. dollars. Simply put, I have contracted out your SpaceX launch resources this year, and will give you $ 1.9 billion for this. The contract includes a $ 500 million liquidated damages. "

Elon Musk froze, roaring in his heart: rich can do whatever he wants? what?

"just……"

Seeing he looked hesitant, Ye Hua also cursed in his heart that the goods were really pretending, while opening a bottle of champagne, he calmly said, "Mr. Musk, this is the price of friendship between you and me. You see How's it? For Tesla's cooperation with me. "

The last sentence heard Elon Musk's heart jump slightly. When "Silicon Valley Iron Man" debuted and became famous all over the world, Ye Hua was still in junior high school. In the end, he was alone, and he heard the words before his voice completely fell. Full of threatening taste.
