The preparation for launching the rocket was in full swing. Calvin eagerly studied the rocket blueprints while coordinating the company's restructuring through the phone. Celestial Trade sent him tents, food, and fresh water. Although the conditions on the deserted island were very difficult, the technician overcame these difficulties with his almost fanatical passion for aerospace.
As to the 40 employees willing to work in Xin, Jiang Chen arranged for them to stay on Coro Island. Based on their roles, they digested the rocket launch technology he brought from the apocalypse.
Of course, he didn't disclose the materials used for the engine to anyone. The material was the key issue restricting the development of aerospace technology. It was also the main advantage of the RM-320 rocket engine compared to modern engines.
In other words, even if the RM-320 rocket engine blueprint was leaked, the people who obtained the blueprint wouldn't be able to replicate it. Just like how it was impossible to build a skyscraper with red bricks and wooden beams, if the most basic problem couldn't be solved, even the most advanced technology could only remain on the blueprint.
At the same time, Jiang Chen didn't neglect the construction of the hardware.
20 construction robots produced by the Sixth Street, after Jiang Lin entered the blueprint for the rocket launch site, were brought to the modern world warehouse along with hundreds of tons of construction materials. Then they were transported by ship to the deserted island that served as the aerospace technology center.
Although he was shocked by the construction robot, Calvin didn't ask any questions. On the one hand, it was because he was not in the right profession, and he did not know how difficult it was to build an automated construction robot. Another reason was because he knew that even if he asked, Jiang Chen wouldn't tell him.
Other than building the rocket launch site, Celestial Trade, under Jiang Chen's instruction, deployed a radar station, drone terminal, and a 20-person outpost on the island. They also included the uninhabited island into the patrol range of the patrol ships to ensure the safety of the launch center.
As to the documents required for the launch of commercial satellites, Jiang Chen hired people to complete the preparation and handed it to Zhang Yaping.
Just like that, it was already the end of October.
Based on the agreement with Carmen Rothschild, Jiang Chen was invited to Frankberg to participate in the Ber Auto Exhibition organized by Daimler Corporation. Considering the cooperation between Future Technology and Daimler Corporation in the field of artificial intelligence, being invited was beneficial to both parties.
On the day of the announcement, Daimler's stock price rose by 4%. People speculated if Daimler and Future Technology would cooperate in the artificial intelligence field or even virtual reality.
On the other hand, many international media were also curious about Jiang Chen, who had always been low-key in front of the media.
As soon as the flight arrived in Berlin, the moment Jiang Chen's plane opened the door, the reporters with "cameras and cannons" swarmed around him. Microphones with the logos of Reuters, Le Journal de Paris, and Washington Post were also stuffed in.
Such extravagance was in no way inferior to those international superstars.
Ayesha and four Celestial Trade bodyguards went with Jiang Chen to Frankberg.
With her long brown hair tied behind her head, Ayesha wore a black suit and carried a black briefcase. She followed two steps behind Jiang Chen, dressed like a secretary. To the unfamiliar young female secretary behind Jiang Chen, the media's interest was no less than Jiang Chen's. Because from the two of them, they smelled the scent of gossip.
But contrary to the passionate media, Ayesha's reaction was cold as if the reporters didn't exist. She ignored all the flashes and cameras.
As to Jiang Chen, he was also in a suit as he dismissed the media with a smile. However, he turned a deaf ear to those tricky or meaningful questions.
"Mr. Jiang Chen, does your participation in the Ber Auto Exhibition indicate Future Group's interest in the automotive industry? In other words, does this mean Future Group is releasing a signal to the public that artificial intelligence will enter the automotive field? "
"Regarding the immersive virtual reality helmet recently introduced by Future Technology, can you ensure its safety? If someone uses it to inject abnormal content into the brain, or illegally steal information from the user's brain, and this behavior can't be controlled by traditional methods, can you ensure it won't happen? Forgive my presumptuous speculation, since the brain is the last privacy of humans. "
"Will you cooperate with other companies interested in virtual reality? Mr. Jiang Chen. The spokesperson of the International Science Council stated that this is a groundbreaking technology and should be shared by all humans in the world. It shouldn't be a means for a company to seek personal profit — "
"Mr. Jiang Chen, based on the news from the Wall Street Journal, your company submitted an application to launch a commercial satellite through the Xin government. Does this mean Future Group will enter the aerospace field?"
"A professor at Stanford University suggested that adding a protective measure to the Phantom helmet to prevent the circuit from burning is an improper act of patent protection. It violates the consumer rights protection law because the consumers who purchased the product have the right —"
Jiang Chen stopped and looked at the young white reporter with curly hair.
"Tell the professor for me to watch his language. The 'Phantom' helmet hasn't been officially released yet. Other than the experience stores that signed a special agreement with us, there are only 2.5 million helmets on the official website. Also, I can tell you that whether it's the pre-sale or the official sale at the end of the year, we will provide a replacement service within a certain time limit and a half-price replacement service. Also, we will add a line on the replacement agreement. Any unauthorized disassembly will be considered a breach of contract, and the replacement agreement will be automatically terminated. We fully protect the legitimate rights and interests of the consumers. The only requirement is that you don't disassemble our helmets. As for those who try to disassemble the helmet, I sincerely advise you to buy more helmets. But I promise, your efforts are futile. "
Seeing Jiang Chen continue to walk forward, the reporter was anxious as he tried to stop him with his microphone, but Jiang Chen was already far away.
Four muscular bodyguards surrounded Jiang Chen and Ayesha in the middle. Although they weren't wearing kinetic skeletons at the moment, with the power injected by the genetic vaccine, these small reporters couldn't defend against them.
The fly-like reporters surrounded Jiang Chen and Ayesha all the way to the gate of the airport. It wasn't until the Rothschild family greeted them and took Jiang Chen and Ayesha into the welcoming fleet did the reporters leave without interest.
"Haha, we meet again, my old friend." Sitting in the back seat, Carmen smiled warmly when he saw Jiang Chen enter.
"It's nice to see you, Mr. Carmen. How have you been?" Jiang Chen sat in the back seat and smiled.
"Of course, it's all thanks to your company's artificial intelligence program. It's almost tailor-made for our main control chip. The board and partners are looking forward to the introduction of the Mercedes-Benz S700 at this auto show. Without a doubt, our product will be the favorite of this auto show. "Carmen grinned, revealing his white teeth.
Ayesha, as a bodyguard and personal secretary, sat in the front passenger seat while the other four Celestial Trade bodyguards sat in the front and back of the car.
"It was tailor-made for you." Jiang Chen grinned as they looked at each other.
A one billion USD deal, the addition of Future Technology's logo to the boot screen for one second, and a 30 billion USD loan. The rapid expansion of Future Group's business was largely due to the help of the Rothschild family.
But today, Carmen didn't mention the loan, and he didn't even ask about Future Group's operations. He only chatted with Jiang Chen about his hobbies and interests.
"Are you interested in a private jet? With your current assets, you definitely have the ability to buy one. Not only would it be convenient, but it would also reduce a lot of unnecessary trouble. "Carmen glanced at the interview car behind them.
"I'll consider buying one. Is there a good brand you can recommend me?" Jiang Chen smiled.
"The auto show in two days, Gulfstream's European manager, Mr. Andy Barford, will also be present. I can introduce him to you. His company's Gulfstream G650 is excellent and I highly recommend it. Whether it's performance or appearance, the G650 is superior compared to commercial jets of the same price range, "Carmen said vividly.
"Then I'll have to trouble you." Jiang Chen smiled.
He had considered buying a private jet before, but because the focus of his work had been on the apocalypse, and there was no need to travel in the modern world, he put the idea aside. Now that Carmen mentioned it, he happened to remember this matter, so he went with the flow and told her about it.
"You're welcome. I think Mr. Barford would also like to meet you." Carmen smiled.
The driver was Johnson, Carmen's bodyguard and driver, a former French Special Forces soldier.
Every time Carmen went out, he would accompany him. Although the Rothschild family was low-key, there were still a lot of eyes on them. Whether it was the kidnappers who coveted the ransom money, business rivals, or the suicide saints from Palestine, they were all in danger.
While Johnson turned the steering wheel, he nonchalantly glanced at Ayesha in the passenger seat.
He did not know why, but this girl who did not look like a warrior at all gave him a sense of danger. Not only this girl, but the other four bodyguards also gave him a similar sense of danger.
Before Ayesha realized it, he looked away without batting an eyelid.
Dammit.
Johnson cursed in his mind as he focused on the road in front of him.
