Moreover, the reason why Li Changheng didn't believe it at all is that the direct manifestation of the accumulation of water from the membrane is lost.

To put it bluntly, it is repeated occurrence of rotating dizziness, fluctuating hearing loss, tinnitus and ear stuffiness.

In other words, if Allen's surgery three years ago had not been successful, his nearly two-year test pilot career and various trainings in these three months would have long been unable to withstand it, and it would have been impossible to delay it until now.

"You want to break up my teammates when there are 56 days left before the launch?"

"Sorry, Henry," Dick said helplessly, "just three days before Apollo 13 launched, we found out that Jim's partner West might have measles.

Whether it is true or misdiagnosed, he can only be replaced and Jack will be replaced.

So, as long as there is a little uncertainty, we can either replace people or postpone your group's launch.

and,,,".

Dick hesitated for a few seconds before saying, "To be honest, it's not just because of the rules and safety regulations that have prompted us not to make any mistakes.

I believe that at least 200 of the more than 1,000 people in the entire aviation center will not put you in any danger that can be ruled out.”

FK.

Li Changheng immediately thought of his clear answers to his work in the past few months.

Then in the past ten days, more people began to approach him intentionally or unintentionally.

The reason is that half a month ago, the first calculator, which was prepared in nearly three months, has been released in the United States.

And one month before the release, it was bought by the US Navy and National Guard 10,000.

Then after a month of fermentation in the Navy and the National Guard, there was no need to call advertisements.

The remaining nearly 90,000 calculators were directly bought by merchants who had relationships with the National Guard, the US Navy, and had business dealings for $180 each.

And as long as the contract is signed, the funds will be directly transferred to Intel's account.

Previously, in order to make the scientists and management talents like Dick believe that they have enough financial strength, he specially bought 200 of them to the aviation center for their own money.

It has made thousands of people in the command center, more than two thousand people in the launch center, and hundreds of related companies directly related to the moon landing know that he is the major shareholder of Intel.

Then, in the past half a month, the weight can be directly reduced to 110 grams of calculator after being optimized by Intel's Robert, Moore, Andy and engineers.

As Robert and the other two expected, the market prospects for this kind of calculator are very good.

In addition, there is no similar product competition, so that every time a batch is produced, it will be taken away from the warehouse and sold in California and several nearby states.

The 100,000 pieces sold in the past half month alone and the 50,000 pieces produced in urgent production in two extra shifts were sold at 27 million US dollars.

The gross profit is 180 minus 37 US dollars, which is 21.45 million US dollars.

After Robert reported this money to Li Changheng, only 450,000 US dollars was left as the company's operating capital.

The other full-in-order orders were handed over to Citi's chip production companies, which can be said to control most of the manufacturers in the Apollo plan.

A production company that specialized in the production of cash tellers since the 1930s, then transformed into producing chips in 1966 and renamed it Precision Instruments.

Needless to say, this chip manufacturer that Li Changheng had never heard of in the future must have not lasted for many years and went bankrupt or merged early.

Therefore, precision instruments and other parts manufacturers associated with Citi have been facing a contract of 600,000 units of full OEM, not only did they say that they would pay all the calculators in 40 days on the contract, but they also took the initiative to reduce the cost from 37 to 35.

Andy wanted to continue to bargain with the chip production company for the cost.

But Lee Changheng and Robert both understand that their profit margin is so large.

It’s not a matter of earning a few dollars from others, but before the islanders and other American companies react, they strive to sell at least 2 million units.

Let’s get back the gross profit of US$290 million.

Then Intel's 10% OEM fee is US$29 million.

With this money, they no longer have to worry about funds in the future, and they are not afraid of having no money to sue and compete with the islanders for price.

Because the 261 million yuan cash in Li Changheng's hands is enough to compete with any island company for price.

Intel only needs Li Changheng to continue to authorize them, place orders from manufacturers, and sell them.

You can always get 10% of the selling price minus the cost.

Therefore, both Li Changheng and Robert understood very well that even if they didn't mention that Li Changheng owned 51% of Intel's shares, just seizing the market first would give them no time to care about the cost of a few dollars.

But the business is so good that many people take the initiative to rely on it, and too many people are reluctant to take the risk.

Even Citi people don’t want him to take the risk of landing on the moon because of Boeing’s affairs and foreseeing larger orders.

If something really happens, the equity dispute alone can be delayed for a year or two, and it may not be possible to resolve it.

The most troublesome thing is that all the patents of the calculator are all in the hands of Li Changheng.

Intel only received 10% of the foundry fee.

In other words, if something happens to him, the business will definitely have to wait until the heirs clearly inherit everything from Li Changheng before they are qualified to continue to authorize Intel to place orders with OEM companies.

During this period, it was enough for islanders or other American manufacturers to follow up, so that the unknown precision chip production companies under Citigroup could lose their OEM profits in vain.

It also lost the opportunity to quickly expand its market share.

For precision instruments, grabbing the market is the key to whether they can grow bigger.

In this case, it can be said that not only one or two hundred people in the aviation center, there are more than a dozen companies that have ordered various parts of the calculator, directly increasing their treatment from rich people to diamond customers.

Therefore, as soon as I discovered that there might be something wrong with Allen's ears, I immediately spent the past three months training and explanations with Li Changheng, and even when Allen and the spacecraft pilot Lothar needed to rest.

Jim, Jack and Fred, who accompanied Li Changheng into the simulation command module, came to train in the lunar module.

Then after psychological evaluation, Jim, who passed the high score, became Allen's replacement.

Become the backup astronaut for this assessment.

If there is no problem with daily training and assessment in the next 56 days, Jim will likely replace Allen directly and become the moon-landing driver of Li Changheng's group.

As for whether Jim could do it, he had not only been a spacecraft pilot before Apollo 13, but also a lunar module pilot.
