时空 道 宇 (Zhejiang Space-Time Daoyu Technology Co., Ltd.) is a strategic investment company of Geely. Representing Xu Zhihao is the CEO of Geely Technology Group, a provider of aerospace information and communication infrastructure and application solutions.

Geely Group was established on May 13, 1996, and its registration place is Taizhou City, Zhejiang Province. Later, on March 22, 2019, it was renamed Geely Technology Group, focusing on new energy, new technologies, New model of industrial investment. Terrafugia’s air travel service company Terrafugia (Tai Li Fei Ji) and Volocopter belong to Geely Technology Group.

Geely ’s promotion of satellite technology is not a “birthday”. In fact, as early as November 6, 2018, Geely Technology Group signed a strategic cooperation agreement with Aerospace Science and Industry to develop high-speed flying trains, industrial Internet and other fields. Project cooperation. Subsequently, on November 26, Geely Technology Group signed an agreement with China Telecom to carry out in-depth cooperation in a number of fields such as connected cars, cloud computing and big data, 5G, and edge computing to explore the application of cutting-edge technologies in the field of smart cars.

Spacetime Dayu also cooperates in depth with Huawei, China Mobile, universities, and scientific research institutions to jointly promote the development of low-orbit satellite navigation enhancements, Sat5G / 6G space information fusion communication technology standards, including China Beidou satellite navigation system overseas commercial services Landing. The satellite to be launched is to provide high-precision (L4, L5) intelligent driving with high-precision positioning services, in conjunction with 5G technology, to help travel, autonomous driving, drone transportation, heavy industry machinery and other fields.

China ’s private space industry started in 2014, when the State Council ’s Guiding Opinions of the State Council on Encouraging Social Investment in Investment and Financing Mechanisms in Innovative Key Areas mentioned: “Encourage private capital to develop, launch and operate commercial remote sensing satellites. Provide market-oriented and professional services. ” Later, policies were gradually opened up, and aerospace technology was gradually commercialized and marketed.

According to the “Space Report 2019”, commercial space products and services created $ 229.17 billion in value in 2018, while related infrastructure and support industries generated $ 99.69 billion in revenue. Financial leaders like the Morgan Stanley Research Center have made bold predictions: By 2040, the global space economy will generate more than $ 1 trillion in revenue.

Several things may not seem to be connected at first glance, but if you combine car companies with future travel, it’s different.

Li Shufu’s actions are not difficult to associate with Musk’s Tesla and SpaceX. Although there are many differences between the two, their future judgments are consistent. Musk mentioned the Robotaxi business at the 2019 Autonomous Driving Conference. The goal is to enable each Tesla to complete the business of “taxi” and achieve future mobility after achieving fully automatic driving. It can bring huge profits, on the other hand, it actually expresses the “role” of cars in future travel.

At present, cars are used as delivery tools and transportation tools. Because people are drivers, traffic lights (signs) and complicated traffic roads are designed. Essentially, people ’s “uncertainty” has led to these rules. These rules are made, and these rules are the root cause of traffic jams.

If you think about it, cars are convenient for people to travel, but it is also because of the leading role of people that they cause traffic jams and poor efficiency. According to the survey, more than 90% of all vehicles are currently parked in parking lots, and the remaining half are blocked on the road, showing how inefficient the use of cars is. Once fully automatic driving is achieved, it means that the road can no longer have such complicated traffic rules. When all information is communicated in real time, the traffic efficiency will be infinitely close to 100%, although people will still buy cars when “Big toys”, but the number will drop significantly.

No matter how Geely invests and studies its future travel business, it is essentially inseparable from the “information and communication problem”.

The launch cost of a low-orbit satellite is relatively low, and it can process real-time information through a huge system composed of multiple satellites. Due to the low orbit height (550km), the transmission delay is short and the path loss is small. That’s why SpaceX’s StarChain plan is also a low-orbit satellite system. It can be found by looking through the data. As far as the current transmission method is concerned, the delay from satellite to ground is about 3.6ms.

If you cooperate with the 5G base station on the ground, or a faster transmission method, you can spread the information to various terminals almost instantly, providing all the real-time information for unmanned driving.

But the process of developing from existing car capabilities and road conditions to driverless and new roads is not a one-off process. Therefore, if Geely wants to realize such a huge idea, it still needs to be based on the current development, that is, to continuously increase the sales and influence of Geely in the current market. In recent years, through continuous cooperation with auto giants and the acquisition of multiple automobile brands, Geely has achieved sales leadership for many years. In 2019, Geely Holdings sold 2.178 million vehicles worldwide, and has layouts in various market segments from consumer to high-end and luxury. .

On this basis, Geely has the strength to make breakthroughs in different fields. Geely has five engineering R & D centers and five design and modeling centers around the world, with a total of more than 20,000 R & D personnel. In the past 10 years, Geely has invested more than 100 billion yuan in R & D. In 2018 alone, R & D investment exceeded 21 billion RMB, accounting for 6.4% of total sales revenue.

Although there are still many people arguing about “isn’t it Geely?” “It’s not a Geely yet”, but in fact, Geely has actually got rid of the narrow concept of “vehicle companies”. The vision of the future goes far beyond that. Acquisition of other brands for technical integration, cooperation with other brands to achieve win-win situation, integration of industry to control costs, independent research and development of autonomous driving system and car integration system to adapt to intelligent development, and at the same time seeing the development direction of future travel, based on The current limitations of the automobile promote Cao Cao to travel, and to promote flying based on forward-looking vision.

Geely’s current layout in the satellite field will connect various fields to serve various businesses in the future, or even to obtain new development directions based solely on satellite services.

In fact, many people do n’t realize that the problem is that they often consider the changes of the world in a linear way of thinking. However, this is not the case. The amount of information and functions provided by the mobile phone in each person ’s hands has changed exponentially. It’s just that the means of communication between people and mobile phones is slow, so it doesn’t make people “superman”. But because some people read and check information faster, some people gain a lot of knowledge and wealth through their mobile phones, and some people just look at it …

In this day and age, whether it is a person or an enterprise, when it can’t keep up with the rapid pace of change, it is only a matter of time before it will be eliminated.
