Chapter 439 Jobs' memorial service

"Come on?" Musk was stunned for two seconds. No matter what angle he stood at, he had no reason to refuse Fang Zhe's generous donation.

However, as the saying goes, cannibalism is short, and Fang Zhe has said so obviously, and Musk has no reason not to reciprocate.

Musk frowned twice, then smiled soothingly, and said: "Then I will thank you for the SpaceX staff first. If you want to visit SpaceX, I will try my best to communicate with NASA and try to give you an answer as soon as possible. !"

Fang Zhe nodded. Musk is not a person who doesn't understand the world. He can only wait patiently for a reply. As for the specific investment details between Huizhong and Tesla, Huang Siyi and the others will worry about it.

Two days later, Fang Zhe low-key attended the Jobs memorial service held in the Stanford University Chapel.

Although Microsoft founder Bill Gates, Amazon founder Bezos, Google founder Larry Page and other top big players in the global Internet industry were all present, due to the occasion, Fang Zhe did not intend to associate with them. However, when Fang Zhe appeared in the church, including Bill Gates and other Internet tycoons, surprises appeared in their eyes.

Obviously, none of them expected that Fang Zhe would appear here.

Because of various complex factors such as environmental countries, China’s Internet industry has always been unique and incompatible with the world’s Internet industry. Therefore, the top leaders of China’s Internet industry rarely appear in the world’s Internet industry. Occasionally, the world’s top big names in the Internet industry rarely appear on various occasions in the Chinese Internet industry.

Therefore, Bill Gates and others were surprised by Fang Zhe’s appearance. They did not expect that Fang Zhe would come to the United States specifically for this matter. Of course, some curious people only found out after the investigation. Zhe came to attend the Jobs memorial service only incidentally, just because he happened to be in the United States, in Silicon Valley, and it happened that he was eligible to participate.

In fact, only Fang Zhe knew that because he knew that Jobs was about to pass away, he specially arranged for paypal to discuss investment cooperation with Tesla at this time.

On the way to leave Stanford University, Fang Zhe looked at the world's top university he had also longed for, and his thoughts were flying until Musk called:

"Mr. Fang Zhe, you can visit SpaceX!"

In the morning of the next day, Fang Zhe, Li Wen, and a female legal attorney who visited Huizhong this time, the three were greeted by a special car sent by Musk and went to the headquarters of SpaceX, also in Hausau, California. Yep.

Hawthorne is just a small town with less than 3,000 people. One-sixth of them are employees and scientific researchers of SpaceX. Since SpaceX set up its headquarters in this small town, this town was once unknown. The town is also called "SpaceX Town" by many people.

On the road, Fang Zhe’s car met with Musk’s car. Fang Zhe changed cars and got into Musk’s car.

"Model-S?" As soon as he got on the car, Fang Zhe asked curiously. Before getting on the car, Fang Zhe casually looked at the model and logo of the car Musk was riding. A big T in front of the car marked this It is a Tesla car, but according to Fang Zhe's impression, none of the Tesla models currently on sale is right with the one in front of him, so Fang Zhe had a guess.

A smile appeared on Musk's face. Today, he took a Model-S to greet Fang Zhe specially, and he meant to show off in his heart. After all, no one has his own car company!

"Yes, a total of three prototypes have been produced. Apart from two left in the factory, there is one I will occasionally use!"

There was a black line across Fang Zhe's forehead, and he didn't care if Musk was showing off. What he cares about is whether this car is safe or not. After all, this is just a sample car. Do you know if there are any safety risks?

Musk seemed to see Fang Zhe's concern, and he persuaded with a smile:

"Don't worry, we completed various safety tests as early as six months ago, and we have not been able to bring it to the market, mainly because production can't keep up. This car can run 470 kilometers on a single charge, which is enough for us to go to and from SpaceX headquarters. Times!"

Model-S restarted, and Musk in the car chatted with Fang Zhe.

"I heard that you attended Jobs's memorial service yesterday?" Musk asked casually, because of the work schedule, he did not go to Jobs's memorial service.

Fang Zhe nodded slightly, and said nothing.

When Musk saw this, he would not ask any more. He was just like everyone else, curious about why Fang Zhe appeared. After all, China’s Internet industry is self-contained, and it is already a hidden rule of the global Internet industry. Some Chinese Internet companies whose business is limited to China are different. Whether it is Huizhong's game business or WeChat, users are all over the world.

Huizhong is more like a veritable world-class company. In addition, it is reported that Jobs and Fang Zhe have a very good personal relationship. It is normal for Fang Zhe to attend Jobs' memorial service.

However, neither Musk nor Bill Gates and others have expected that when they gradually accept Fang Zhe’s appearance on these occasions, they also increasingly accept Huizhong as a world-class Internet company, not just It is a Chinese Internet company.

"He is great, but his time has passed. No one will know what the future of Apple will be without him, but I think whether it is Tesla, SpaceX, or Huizhong that you founded, it will become the future. The more dazzling company!" Musk's words were full of arrogance and conceit.

Then he asked again: "By the way, I want to know, why do you want to visit SpaceX?"

"Which man does not have a space dream, I am very interested in space, and naturally I am very interested in SpaceX, which is doing aviation!" Fang Zhe answered without thinking.

In order to satisfy his "space dream" and curiosity, Fang Zhe even donated 1 million US dollars in "charity". In fact, Fang Zhe did not expect to see anything valuable in SpaceX. Speaking of simply watching rockets, watching launch warehouses, etc., Fang Zhe can spend dozens of dollars on tickets to various aerospace museums. His real purpose is to use this as an opportunity to invest in SpaceX.

Of course, this matter sounds very extravagant. Because of the Sino-US relationship and the US government’s investment restrictions in the aviation sector, it is almost impossible for Fang Zhe or Huizhong to invest in SpaceX, but this does not hinder. Fang Zhe spent $1 million to make a water bleaching test!

Two hours later, Fang Zhe and others arrived at the SpaceX headquarters in Hawthorne.

After storing the mobile phones and other electronic equipment they carried and passing strict security inspections, Fang Zhe and others formally entered SpaceX, a production workshop where the "Falcon 9" rocket is being manufactured.
