At the end of March.

At a time when the industry was discussing the Xingjiang International Open Source Incident, Luo Sheng was currently holding a video conference with the leaders of the Ministry of Aerospace Science and Technology and the Aerospace Science and Technology.

The discussion was the open source technology of Star Arrow International recyclable rockets.

"Comrade Luo Sheng, today we are not here to question you about opening up rocket technology. This is a market behavior after all, but we still want to know whether Star Arrow International will still be open to higher-end technologies in the future? Can there be any strategic questions conveniently?" said the leader of the Ministry of Science and Technology in the video screen.

This incident surprised many people. At present, Xingjiang International masters the most advanced rocket recycling technology in the country, and the Ministry of Science and Technology also attaches great importance to this matter.

Luo Sheng did not answer immediately, but thought for a while. The strategic questions could be said one, but they could not say them all. Now is not the time.

After a moment, Luo Sheng smiled and said, "When the issue of technology open source, how to open source depends on competitors. If there are competitors, I will open source, and if there are some technical competitors, I will certainly not open source."

The general manager of Aerospace Science and Technology smiled and said, "Mr. Luo, I have to say that your move is really a bit hurt. If Elon Musk was probably already angry with you, I wouldn't be able to sleep in the middle of the night."

Luo Sheng couldn't help but smile and then continued: "As for strategic issues, looking at the decades of growth in my country's opening up, we are examining the scale effect formed by the cooperation of institutional advantages and the agglomeration effect of the talent industry. It has become the largest corpse economy in the world today, and has become the first developing country in the East since the three hundred years of industrial revolution in mankind that can challenge the industrial hegemony of Western developed countries."

"Our industrialization is not a process of capital accumulation, but a process of metabolism between new and old industries. Our learning speed exceeds the speed of innovation in the West, so we can 'come behind'. In the first thirty years, our learning speed exceeded the speed of innovation in the West, and in the next thirty years, we must achieve the speed of innovation beyond the speed of learning in the West."

"my country's aerospace industry still needs more talents, and Xingjian International is also in a hurry to lack talents, including other industries. If we want to achieve our innovation speed in the future, we will surpass the learning speed of the West. Talent is the foundation. The purpose of open source is actually to further increase the growth of the talent industry. The older generation has completed the historical mission, and our generation has also begun to take on the burden and abandon our opponents in the garbage dump of history."

This made everyone unable to repay their words because it blocked everyone's mouths from a fundamental sense and could not object.

This is indeed true. It is beneficial to the country and the Xingjian International is also beneficial. There is no conflict between public and private, but complement each other.

Luo Sheng added with a smile: "After opening source, not only our talents will learn and study, but foreign talents will also learn and study. This is certain. If foreign talents improve by 20 points, our talents will improve by 100 points. If 20 points are hedged, we will actually still lead by 80 points significantly. The reason why our innovation speed will surpass the learning speed in the West is that our country has the largest group of engineers in the world."

The leaders of the Ministry of Science and Technology could not help but nodded silently to agree that the entire world and the overall human civilization are of course progressing. Everyone is progressing, but the degree of progress varies. Some are progressing quickly, while others are progressing slowly.

As long as the number of domestic talents is higher than that of foreigners, of course, the speed of innovation will definitely exceed the learning speed of foreigners.

The video conference ended soon, so I came over to ask about the situation, which was not a big deal.

Xingjiang International’s open source data is also a good thing for national teams such as Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation, Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation, and can be used directly for reference and research.

The Ministry of Science and Technology also saw from this not-too-long video conference that Luo Sheng was confident about Xingjian International. It was obvious that he would be confident that he would master more advanced technologies in the future. Otherwise, open source would be to help others. You should know that if he did this, he would also affect his opponents and cause trouble to himself. Only when his own technology is one level ahead of his level can he avoid such an embarrassing situation.

...

The next day, another news attracted people's attention. Google suddenly jumped out and made a fuss of presence on open source data.

Larry Page posted a news directly on his microblog social account and said that Google is considering opening source sharing of its code for open source and Google X Labs' driverless technology to the world.

Another world-renowned technology giant announced that it would take the route of open source sharing. For a moment, the word "open source" became a popular entry in the technology world nowadays.

Whether the online dispute is better or the closed technology is better, they have always been in their own opinion and are having a lot of fun in the fight.

But in this case, they found that the technology giants had already begun to make choices, giving people a sudden, the wind of open source became popular all over the world.

In fact, the so-called "open source" to change to down-to-earth is to form cliques and establish a mountain. Choosing the technical system means accepting the standards of the technical system, and whoever is the controller of this standard has the international pricing power.

The best way to defeat an opponent is not to destroy the opponent, but to make the opponent become his own person, and it is best to be willing to become his own tool person.

Larry Page, who was outside the street but knew that he would not be out of the situation one day, understood this and realized the benefits of having few enemies and many friends. He became the leader of the industry, gave his brothers a bite of food, tied them to his own chariot and prospered, which fundamentally eliminated their thoughts of "below" to make some unreasonable thoughts.

It is not just Larry Page, a technology tycoon who understands this, but Elon Musk, who is among them, also sees it clearly.

Immediately afterwards, just in April, Spacex also issued an important announcement, opening up the data related to the Spacex Rockets - Spacex-api on github.

Obviously, this move shows that Spacex is tangled and Elon Musk is a helpless move that is in a dilemma.

The power of open source is not as strong as that of Xingjiang International, because if you want to reach the power of Xingjiang International, then Spacex will have no technical advantage. However, although Luo Sheng's Xingjiang International offsets this part of its competitiveness, he still has an unparalleled "money ability".

Elon Musk is certainly aware of this when comparing the advantages and disadvantages of both sides.

Luo Sheng can withstand Xingjian International's five or six years of money and can continue to burn more than 10 billion or even 20 billion US dollars a year, but Elon Musk's spacex company cannot do this. He does not have the "money ability" thing

Once the open source strength follows up, you may not receive orders, there will be no source of income without orders, and there will be no other channels to cover the financial expenditure of Spacex. The final result may not be able to continue operating, thus facing the risk of bankruptcy.

If the strength cannot be kept up, the emerging private aerospace companies that are about to emerge will adopt Xingjiang International's technical standards.

The dilemma created by Luo Sheng's operation for Spacex is almost a dead end, blocking the road. If you follow up, you will die quickly. If you don't follow up, you will die slowly. However, whether it is a dying or a dying slowly, it will all die, and there is no difference.

It’s really just walking your own way and leaving your opponent with no way out.

This is not only the embarrassing situation Spacex is facing now, but also private space companies in North America such as Blue Origin, Sierra Nevada and Orbital Science.

Luo Sheng relied on his "money ability" to make Xingjian International surpass the innovation speed of its peers in terms of learning speed. In five or six years, it has already tied the results that the opponent has created after more than ten years. If it is to catch up with the opponent with the continuous increase in "money ability" and it is only a matter of the specific time.

By that time, the situation will be reversed, and it is the opponent's turn to start learning to surpass Star Arrow International. However, without Luo Sheng's "money ability", Elon Musk will not be able to give Spacex a $20 billion R&D investment every year.

The result must be that the learning speed cannot keep up with the innovation speed of Xingjiang International. In the long run, the living space will be constantly squeezed, and the fate of being eliminated seems to be destined.
