Chapter 1806 The Lofty Ambition to Explore Mars

In the end, relying on the comprehensive strength of the film, relying on Li Mu's publicity resources, and three classic English songs, "Flying Tigers" created a series of box office miracles, with a total global box office of 3.231 billion US dollars, becoming the world box office record. The newly crowned king.

This movie has created a horror record of more than 400 million people watching the movie all over the world, and the second and third audiences are everywhere.

This is a huge improvement for Huaxia Films. Although most of the main creative team is from Hollywood, because it is a Chinese-owned film, a historical fact of China, and released by Huaxia Company, it should be classified as a sequence of Huaxia Films as a whole.

This is also the first successful global export of Huaxia Films, and it is the pinnacle of debut.

Li Mu also fulfilled his promise to the world. After the movie was released, he immediately put "rolling in the deep" on the shelves of yytunes, and offered it to users all over the world for free download and authorized music stations around the world to play it for free.

As a result, this song effortlessly topped almost all music charts in the world in an instant.

Now, on most music charts around the world, "rolling in the deep" is number one and "set fire to the rain" is number two.

There is also a part of this, the third song is "21 guns".

This also created the pinnacle of Chinese singers' achievements in the world.

At the same time, the three songs are in the top 10, even in the top 5 and top 3, which is simply a heaven-defying existence.

After the movie was released, among the five leading actors, Du Wei, who had the least subdivision, became the most popular one with these three songs.

Needless to say, Tom Hanks and Leonardo are themselves the existence of top actor sequences.

As for Anne Hathaway, because the female nurse she played is more tragic and sentimental, she also won a lot of goodwill, and the coffee position rose to the top line.

Liu Ye, who was unknown before, also became an instant hit in Asia.

On the day of the film's final release, Li Mu held a thank-you meeting. In addition to thanking everyone for their support for the film's achievements, he also answered a question that the reporter was very concerned about: "Why can I write these three extraordinary songs? Excellent music."

The answer given by Li Mu was: "It's because of talent."

Apart from these four words,

He himself has no good explanation.

Later, at the thank-you meeting, he said to the global audience: "I want to be here today and take this opportunity to announce one thing to everyone."

After speaking, Li Mu added: "This matter has nothing to do with the movie itself, it's a little decision of mine."

All the media reporters were eagerly looking forward to his next content, and Li Muyu said, "I have reached a preliminary consensus with Tesla's CEO Elon Musk to jointly support the migration of humans to Mars. Work hard for great goals!"

As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar!

Move to Mars? !

This thing is too out of touch, right?

Everyone imagined the decisions that Li Mu might have said, but every idea was on earth.

Unexpectedly, Li Mu directly threw out an answer, that is, Mars, which is tens of millions of kilometers away.

Just when the scene was like a thunderstorm, Li Mu smiled slightly and explained: "Actually, I believe that everyone should have certain fantasies and desires for space, and I also believe that everyone once looked up when they were young. Look at the stars, look at the majestic Milky Way, think about the universe, about immigrating aliens, and about alien life.

"I think an entrepreneur can't just focus on making money. Sometimes, we have to take the initiative to take on some higher-level responsibilities and obligations for the future of mankind, and explore other planets. The consensus that Ron Musk reached next."

Journalists are crazy.

The world's richest man suddenly said that he wanted to immigrate to Mars. This can be said to be another explosive big news after the Flying Tigers!

As a result, reporters asked questions one after another, and someone asked, "Mr. Li, how long are you going to realize this wish?"

Li Mu said: "First of all, let me correct this. This is not a wish. This is a plan, a plan to be implemented. In addition, to answer your question, I hope that before 2020, we can safely send humans to Mars."

Another person asked: "Mr. Li, sending humans to Mars and immigrating to Mars should be two different concepts?"

Li Mu nodded and said with a smile, "The two concepts are also two stages. First, we must achieve landing on Mars and return safely, and then we can achieve immigration to Mars."

Another reporter raised his hand: "Mr. Li, even NASA in the United States would not dare to start this project. How much are you and Elon Musk going to invest to start this project?"

Li Mu said with a smile: "I am personally willing to invest $10 billion or more in this project in at least the next 2-30 years."

After speaking, Li Mu added: "Of course, I also hope that the rich people in the world will be willing to participate in this project. We are now ready to recruit partners for all human beings, and at the same time, for all human beings, to recruit future space workers. Passengers, even space funeral users."

The reporter asked: "Mr. Li, can you tell us more about it?"

"Of course." Li Mu said with a smile: "First of all, it is an investment of 10 billion US dollars. This is just my personal guaranteed investment. At the same time, Elon Musk and I also have two cooperation projects, one is Tesla, the other is Tesla. It is SpaceX, and all the net profits at our disposal from these two companies in the future will be used for space exploration projects.”

"As for the space tourist program, in the future we will provide: orbiting around the earth, space station, moon, Mars and other space tourism programs. This program is intended to recruit wealthy users who want to experience space exploration in their lifetime;"

"The space funeral is our ultimate solution for the placement of ashes after the death of human beings, which is to put them in high-strength alloy containers and launch them into space. Maybe human beings will perish in the future, and the ashes are still in space. Wandering, don't you think this is a very romantic thing?"

Someone asked him, "Mr. Li, can you tell us why you have such thoughts?"

Li Mu said with a smile: "People, there must always be a motivation to move forward. If my motivation is only to make money, then I may put all my energy and cost into projects that can make money, but then What's the meaning of it? After the money reaches a certain level, it can't be spent no matter what, and I am not a person who likes to enjoy, so I think it is more meaningful to use some of the money to do something , higher level things, exploring Mars, exploring space, is one of them.

"Then why did you choose Mars instead of other celestial bodies, such as the moon, which is closer to the earth?"

Li Mu explained: "Mars is the most similar terrestrial planet in the solar system to Earth. Therefore, in our opinion, Mars is the most realistic option for alien immigration. There is no one."

"Then what do you think the chances of this plan being successful are?"

Li Mu said: "Success requires time as a reference. In my opinion, the success rate of human beings landing on Mars should be about 50%, but the success rate of immigrating to Mars is only about 25%. If this timeline is extended by ten years, then I think the success rate will be doubled, and if the timeline is extended to 2050, then I think even if the immigration to Mars, there is at least an 80% possibility."

After speaking, Li Mu added: "Actually, even if this goal cannot be achieved in 2050, it doesn't matter to me, because scientific research itself is a process that needs to be constantly piled up. Humans are sent to Mars to immigrate, but it will definitely improve the theoretical and hardware basis of human immigration to Mars to a certain extent, so that our children and grandchildren can take this foundation to a higher level.”

"Maybe in 2100, humans will be able to establish a permanent living base on Mars;"

"Maybe in 2200, humans can easily travel between Mars and Earth;"

"Perhaps in 2500, humans will be able to rush out of the solar system and head towards a farther goal."

"However, the premise of all this is that human beings must restart the exploration of outer space and other celestial bodies. If we do not take this step now, but leave it to our sons and grandchildren to start, then the whole The rhythm of human exploration of outer space will be delayed for 20 to 30 years or even longer, so I think it is necessary for us to start earlier."

Another reporter asked: "Mr. Li, do you have any specific steps and plans?"

Li Mu said: "First of all, we will increase investment to develop recyclable launch vehicles to further reduce the cost of space launch;"

"Secondly, we will start to build our own space station while conducting commercial launches. The space station will serve as a base for fuel replenishment and food supplies. The first astronauts to go to Mars in the future will be loaded with fuel and supplies here and sail to the distant Mars.

"At the same time, we will also study permanent and semi-permanent equipment suitable for use on Mars. First select a location on the surface of Mars, build a scientific research station, and then take the scientific research station as the center to gradually expand a Martian village and a Martian town. Even Martian cities."

"Of course, this is the most unimaginative solution. We might as well be romantic when we look at this problem. Just imagine, maybe in the next few decades, human material science will advance by leaps and bounds, and people will be able to develop a space elevator. It might come!"

"In that way, the cost of transporting items to the space station will be greatly reduced. In the past, transporting hundreds of kilograms of payloads required a launch vehicle, but at that time, transporting hundreds of kilograms of payloads will only consume some electricity. If that One day has really come, human beings may be able to build a super spacecraft the size of an aircraft carrier in space. At that time, we can even build a mobile city in space, and then carry thousands of people, and All the equipment, supplies, they need to fly directly to Mars and land on the surface of Mars.”

"All in all, the possibilities of space exploration are endless, but the key is that if you don't take the first step, there will be no prospects and possibilities. Only by taking the first step will you have infinite possibilities!"
