"That's easy to say. Actually, I'm still young, so I can't really discuss some issues with them."
After getting a little more familiar with each other, Wang Tao also started to act young. When being with young people, it is easy to have the illusion that you are still young.
While they were still chatting, a large group of Asians came out from the exit. They were the members of the inspection team. The three of them went up to greet them.
In addition to them, people from Tesla also came to greet them. They are responsible for arranging hotel accommodation. Entrepreneurs with money can find hotels themselves, but those within the system must obey unified arrangements.
It was almost dinner time, and without much greeting, everyone got directly into the car arranged by Tesla, was taken to the hotel, and then had lunch together.
Lunch is simple, the highlight is the dinner. I heard that Musk will come in person.
Many people in China regard this legendary figure as an idol, because all the boasts he made in the past have come true, which is the biggest difference between him and Lao Jia.
"I still admire Steve Jobs more."
In the car on the way back from the airport, when talking about this topic with Xia Yu, Wang Tao said thoughtfully.
He is a proud man at heart. As for Jobs, he appreciates some of his ideas instead of accepting them all and worshipping him as a leader.
He also remained indifferent to Musk, but he still had to learn what he needed to learn, and this was the purpose of his joining this inspection team.
"We are both newbies in the tech world and we like cool things."
"You mean SpaceX? Young people love that!"
After hearing Xia Yu's words, Wang Tao understood instantly.
Reusable rockets and immigration to Mars are indeed more interesting than mobile phones and 5G. It can be said that distance creates beauty!
"I saw the itinerary before, and it said we'd be taken to visit SpaceX at the end, which should be interesting."
Xia Yu nodded in agreement, but he was not interested in migrating to Mars. Space mining was more interesting.
When he was a child, he took computer classes at school and liked a game called Gold Miner. After he owned a system, he also had his own gold mine.
"Outsiders watch the excitement, insiders watch the secrets. This time, several bosses from domestic commercial aerospace companies came. I wonder if they are here to learn from others or to steal their skills."
Given Wang Tao's status in the domestic technology circle, he naturally has a deep understanding of the ever-popular commercial aerospace industry. He felt that this was not suitable for DJI, so he did not rush into it.
Although he doesn't get involved, he knows a lot of people in this small circle. He just took a quick look at the airport and found many familiar faces.
"Brother Tao, I only know that there are several companies doing this in China, but I haven't had time to learn more about them. What do you think of their development?"
Xia Yu asked Wang Tao for advice, "If you don't understand, just ask. It's a good opportunity to meet a professional."
"It's quite difficult. The barriers to entry are high, and there are many problems to face, such as a small market, difficulty in expanding overseas, backward technology, no cost advantage, and inflexible launch. Add to that the difficulty in financing and the system's blockade of technical talent. If you want to do this, you have to be prepared to lose everything."
Wang Tao pointed out many problems in the domestic commercial aerospace industry.
"In short, if we want to succeed, we must have our own rockets and our own engines. We can't just rely on the country."
"So that's how it is. I thought it was too simple."
Xia Yu had thought it would be difficult, but he didn't expect it to be this difficult. However, some things have to be done no matter how difficult they are.
Life is short, and there is no end to making money. It is difficult for individuals to spend billions of dollars in personal expenses. So what should we do with the remaining money?
Of course, it is to burn money to develop technology. This is the real bottomless pit. No matter how much money you have, it is not enough to burn it. But as long as you can burn some results and make something that is beneficial to the progress of mankind, then you will have no regrets in this life.
A wealthy person must have sentimental feelings. If he only knows how to cut leeks, he will be pulled down from the throne. There have been such examples before, and there will be many more in the future. Xia Yu does not want to become like this.
"Don't worry, you are still so young. It's not too late to enter a new field after you have considered it carefully."
Wang Tao comforted the two of them.
In his eyes, Xia Yu was too young. Although he started out in the catering business, his ambitions definitely did not stop there. He might even enter the technology field someday.
As for the Internet, it has even less future than a sunset industry. Several large companies have already divided up the entire market. Even if you have new ideas, you can't compete with them.
The breakthrough lies in the field of science and technology, both for the country and for individuals.
"Brother Tao, you're right. I'll think about it again when I get back."
After Xia Yu finished speaking, they arrived at the hotel.
The majority of the group got off the bus carrying their luggage, but the three people on the bus did not get off. Instead, they said goodbye and turned around to leave, driving towards the community next to them.
Wang Tao was staying at the Four Seasons Hotel in San Francisco. Since he arrived early, he wouldn't have to suffer from jet lag, so he had a private lesson with Xia Yu and the others, and then attended the welcome dinner together in the evening.
"Alas, I didn't know you, Brother Tao, when I passed by Pengcheng last time. Otherwise, I would definitely visit DJI."
The three of them ate and chatted, and Xia Yu said with regret.
Shenzhen is not suitable for tourism, but it has a good technological atmosphere and many large technology companies are there. It is a pity that I was unable to visit them.
"Now we know each other, Shanghai isn't far from Pengcheng. After visiting these high-tech enterprises in Shanghai, I'll fly to Pengcheng first. I'll show you around. Only by comparing can we make discoveries."
Wang Tao took the initiative to invite.
"Okay, I'll trouble you, Brother Tao."
Xia Yu agreed without hesitation, as he also wanted to take a look at DJI's operating system.
