    Altrain's voice was not deliberately hidden, so not only Elena and Quinn, but also other media reporters around could hear it clearly, so they gathered around one after another, and even the most impatient ones opened their mouths and asked  : "Hi~~Altrain, can you tell me the specific situation? Don't worry, I'm willing to pay you $50 if the news is breaking."

    "You should stay and drink one more glass of whiskey at the bar!" O'Train replied with a smile, and then without delay, he told the information he learned from an anonymous person within Motorola.

    When Elena, Quinn and others heard this, their eyes became bright. They didn't expect that it was due to the weather. However, some cautious people expressed doubts and said hesitantly: "I think the specific reason depends on the weather."  The official statement of the Field Launch Center shall prevail. After all, China has been operating here for many years and must know the climate conditions better than others."

    "I don't think so." As soon as the questioner finished speaking, Elena objected without hesitation: "As we all know, the United States is the country with the highest technological level in the world. Not to mention other things, the weather in the United States is currently in orbit.  There are as many as 12 satellites, 6 of which are geostationary satellites, which can provide weather forecasts for any area in the world at any time, with an accuracy of close to 100%. Does China have it?"

    A question made the doubters speechless. As media reporters who have switched to the aerospace field, although they are not expert-level, most of them are not newbies. Some senior reporters even have experience in the aerospace field.  With a postgraduate degree, I am well aware of the role of meteorological satellites in weather forecasting.

    As the well-deserved overlord in the aerospace field, the United States naturally leads the world in this regard. Because of this, the United States has become the only country in the world that can accurately forecast accurate weather conditions in any region of the world.

    This has significantly contributed to the United States¡¯ global hegemony.

    Let¡¯s not talk about anything else, let¡¯s just talk about the Gulf War a few years ago, the Desert Saber ground operation that followed Operation Desert Storm. At that time, a huge sandstorm that had not been seen for many years blew up on the border between Saudi Arabia and Iraq.

    With years of experience, the Iraqi defenders believe that it is impossible for the US military to launch an offensive under such weather conditions, because the wind direction of this kind of sandstorm is changeable, which can easily cause the attacker to suffer losses.

    As a result, the U.S. military not only carried out the attack, but also used the wind to take advantage of the fire, and the fire to take advantage of the wind, which directly blinded the Iraqis.

    The reason why the US military dared to be so bold was due to the accurate forecast of this sandstorm by their on-orbit weather satellites, and finally determined that the wind direction was the most powerful US military attack. Then they took action without hesitation, and the final battle established the post-Cold War era of the United States.  hegemony.

    In contrast, China does not have no meteorological satellites, but there is a period of disconnection. In 1988 and 1990, two meteorological satellites, Fengyun 1a and Fengyun 1b, were launched.

    It is a pity that the service life of the two satellites is only a short one year. According to the plan of the aerospace department, a Fengyun-2 satellite will be launched in the middle of next year. However, before that, we can only rent foreign commercial satellites for weather forecasting. Others'  No matter how good the stuff is, you can't use it as casually as your own stuff.

    Therefore, foreign satellites can only provide a general outline of meteorological trends. Specific auxiliary means such as ground monitoring stations and sounding balloons are needed to make accurate predictions.

    However, years of human practice have shown that ground-based detection methods cannot detect the ever-changing rhythm of nature. Otherwise, why would humans launch meteorological satellites?

    Therefore, the error rate of this type of weather forecast is very high, especially in areas such as space launches that have high weather requirements. If it is slightly worse, the window period may be missed, causing serious losses.

    This is why aerospace is a large-scale toy that only capable countries can afford. In fact, this thing tests not only high-end manufacturing, but also complete peripheral supporting facilities.

    "It's like an expensive Barbie doll. What's the use of a doll that can't shine?"  At the very least, it must be matched with clothes and shoes to be considered a whole. If you want to stand out, you need to match it with a few more sets, and then the scene, furniture, care

    It¡¯s a completely bottomless pit.

    ¡°Obviously, China surpasses most countries in this regard, but compared with the United States, it is not even qualified to call daddy. The reporters present are not smart people. After a little thought, they will know the launch pill of Ascendas Group this time.

    So the quick ones immediately took out their satellite phones, while the slower ones hurriedly considered their words.

    ??????????????? All in all, everyone is prepared to pass this exciting news back, even if they don¡¯t compete for first place, they must still be outstanding.

    Among them, the news reported by Elena from British Sky TV was the most alarmist. She bluntly stated that this failure would bankrupt Ascendas Group and deal a heavy blow to China's aerospace industry. This shows thatHow ridiculous it is for a developing country with immature technology to undertake such a high-tech commercial business, and then commented in a bossy tone:

    "I would like to give a sincere suggestion to a proud manufacturer like Ascendas Group, which is to do your own thing first. Although swan meat is good, it is not something you can eat whenever you want."

    Unlike in the 1980s, communication equipment was not developed, and reporters had to forward urgent reports through telegrams. Now it is the mid-1990s, satellite phones have become popular, and during the Gulf War, live news from CNN and other radio and television broadcasters in the United States  The sudden rise of news has led to the extremely rapid spread of news today.

    ¡° Less than half an hour after the foreign media reporters in China¡¯s West Field published their article, European and American TV media had already included written news about Ascendas Group¡¯s launch failure in their programs.

    An hour later, in-depth comments began to dominate the screen.

    An hour and a half later, special reports began to appear.

    Two hours later, a strong wave of public opinion arose overseas.

    Why is Ascendas Group at the end of its rope?

    Why is China¡¯s aerospace technology lagging behind?

    An aviation company that engages in aerospace across multiple fields is doomed to fail.

    ¡­¡­

    " There are so many remarks. In short, China's aerospace technology is unreliable and immature, and it simply cannot afford to undertake commercial space launch missions for other countries.

    "It seems that we have touched someone else's cake!"

    Zhuang Jianye learned about the overseas media reports immediately. He took a quick glance at it, smiled, threw aside the media report materials in his hand, and immediately stood up from the sofa and walked out.  into this smoky conference room.

    As soon as he went out, a flash of light almost blinded Zhuang Jianye¡¯s titanium alloy dog ??eyes. Fortunately, he had brought sunglasses in advance, otherwise four or five bottles of eye drops might not be enough.

    Then, before Zhuang Jianye could adapt to such a large media battle, Elena from British Sky TV had already started to attack: "Mr. Zhuang, what is your comment on the failure of Ascendas Group's launch?"

    "Comment?" Zhuang Jianye chuckled, then his face turned cold, and he pointed at Elena: "fake news!"

    Immediately waving, the two Ascendas Group staff behind him immediately brought out a large-sized display screen. After turning on the power, a dynamic display of the clouds over the West Field was immediately displayed. Zhuang Jianye did not waste any time. He took off his glasses and pointed at the screen.  The image above said: "According to the real-time meteorological data provided by our Thunderbolt-120 long-endurance drone produced by Ascendas Group, after one hour and fifteen minutes, ordinary clouds will appear over the West Field for 50 minutes. Therefore, our long-range  Four rockets will be launched normally in one and a half hours."

    Everyone was shocked after hearing this, but Altline grasped another important point and asked: "Mr. Zhuang, you said that the Thunderbolt-120 is a long-endurance drone, how long is this long-endurance drone?"

    Zhuang Jianye smiled slightly and gave a surprising answer: "Since the number behind the thunder and lightning is 120, it naturally means that the battery life is 120 hours."
