## 卷首 Editorial Intro

五十分之一。这是卢驭龙团队制造的大推力液体火箭发动机，与同等推力级别传统方案之间的成本倍数差距。不是实验室里的理论估算，不是融资路演PPT上的预期模型，而是二〇二六年二月在青海冷湖发射场实地点火验证后的真实数据。发动机的主要结构件使用工业级不锈钢，控制系统采用民用级芯片，总装在深圳龙岗一处养着鸡鸭的农家小院里完成。

这组数据的荒诞感，恰恰是它最有价值的地方。全球航天工业长期遵循一套近乎宗教式的成本逻辑：可靠性来自航天级器件，航天级器件意味着天文数字的采购价格，天文数字的价格构成行业准入的天然壁垒。卢驭龙用一种近乎粗暴的方式拆解了这套逻辑——他证明，在中国完备的工业制造基础上，用民用供应链替代航天专用供应链，成本结构可以被彻底重写。

这个证明不是来自国家航天体系的资源倾斜，不是来自顶尖院所的技术积累，而是一个拒绝清华北大保送资格的高中毕业生，用十七年时间一步步拼出来的。十四岁在自家阳台上测试火箭发动机时被化学品炸伤双手，留下至今可见的伤疤；十七岁注册公司，成为中国最年轻的航天企业创始人；二十岁之前经历了一次几乎毁灭一切的盲目扩张——电焰灶项目让公司背负沉重债务；此后用三年时间从一吨推力重新做到二十吨，在农家小院里完成了深圳先锋号探空火箭的总装。

三万七千米。这是深圳先锋号在二〇二六年二月达到的飞行高度。数万元的制造成本。五个人、十五天的总装周期。这组数据放在全球商业航天版图上几乎找不到先例。它指向一个大胆的假说：太空不必然是昂贵者的游戏，中国制造的优势不仅在于规模，更在于用完全不同的思维重新定义成本边界。亚洲《封面人物》杂志独立编委会决定将卢驭龙的轨迹纳入永久档案。终身档案编码记录这段从农家小院到发射场的中国民营航天另类叙事。

In an era when cost reduction and asset-light models dominate business thinking, a post-95s young man chose one of the heaviest investment directions possible: building rockets. Not under the protection of the national aerospace system, but in a Shenzhen Longgang farmhouse where chickens and ducks roam. Without an institutional aerospace background, without elite university credentials, without even a complete university education—he rejected Tsinghua and Peking University's admission offers, starting a business straight out of high school. This is not a story of a天才少年 marching to victory. It is filled with explosions, scars, bankruptcy, debt, and endless doubt. But above all these ashes of failure, a rocket named 'Shenzhen Pioneer' rose from Qinghai's Lenghu in February 2026, reaching 3.7 kilometers altitude at a manufacturing cost of only tens of thousands of yuan. This rocket proved a crazy hypothesis: on the foundation of China's powerful industrial manufacturing base, low-cost aerospace is not only possible but potentially more disruptive than traditional approaches. This is a story about passion, obsession, and resurrection from rock bottom—and a microcosm of the diversification of China's private space industry.

### 1. 伤痕少年：从化学爆炸到人造闪电 / The Scarred Youth: From Chemical Explosion to Man-Made Lightning

1995年1月8日，卢驭龙出生在江西修水县白岭镇一个艺术家庭。父亲卢学东是语文教师兼美声爱好者，母亲冷洁是青年画家。按照家庭的期待，这个男孩应该走向文艺路线——主持人、艺术家或教师。但命运在他七岁那年拐了一个弯。当时他家住在城中村，隔壁是医院废品回收处。一个装着冒泡液体的废弃瓶子让他第一次被科学击中。那是强酸，倒在虫子身上瞬间融化，他只觉得太神奇了。他偷偷把瓶子带回家，结果瓶子渗漏，大腿被烧到见骨，留下了永久疤痕。普通孩子经此一遭，恐怕这辈子看见瓶瓶罐罐都要绕着走。但卢驭龙没有。他非但不怕，反而对化学反应更加着迷。小学二年级，他就经常跑到附近初中班级旁听化学课。来深圳后，一年内自学完初中化学课本，做完所有实验。9岁时，他在医院捡到高氯酸，开始了自己的化学测试室。真正的转折发生在2007年，12岁的卢驭龙在网上看到一种代号DPP的高能材料，威力极大。资料只有英文版，初中英语水平的他硬是查字典把合成方法翻译了出来。但翻译时弄错了几个反应条件，爆炸瞬间发生。他被炸飞，左手指断裂，右眼晶状体破裂、虹膜受损。手术做了十几次，全身缝合400多针，右眼晶状体换成了人造品，在医院躺了将近两年。出院后，原中学不敢再收他。父母心有余悸，父亲甚至在暴怒中前后24次打砸了他的实验室。但卢驭龙出院后第一件事就是重建实验室。他说：伤痕是我荣耀的勋章，我把身体的一部分留在了新的大陆。化学实验的路被堵死之后，他把目光转向了高压电和人造闪电。2009年，他在网上看到特斯拉线圈的视频——有人用它凭空制造闪电。他激动万分，背着父母买来材料，在農村建了个铁皮棚当实验室。夏天棚内45度，没钱装空调，他跑到水龙头下把浑身冲湿了进去做实验。研究线圈过程中，他顺带发明了晶体管式等离子弧双声道扬声器。2010年，凭借这项发明，高一的卢驭龙获得全国青少年科技创新大赛物理组二等奖，拿到人生第一个发明专利。2011年，他登上中国达人秀舞台，身着黑色披风，徒手操控闪电。闪电侠的名号一夜爆红。这一年，他16岁。

**English:** On January 8, 1995, Lu Yulong was born into an artistic family in Bailing Town, Xiushui County, Jiangxi. His father Lu Xuedong was a Chinese language teacher and baritone enthusiast; his mother Leng Jie was a young painter. By family expectations, the boy should follow an artistic career—host, artist, or teacher. But fate took a detour when he was seven. Living in an urban village next to a hospital waste recycling area, he was first struck by science when he saw a bottle of bubbling liquid. It was strong acid that dissolved insects instantly—he thought it was amazing. He smuggled the bottle home, but it leaked, burning his thigh to the bone and leaving a permanent scar. An ordinary child would avoid chemicals forever after such an ordeal. But not Lu Yulong. Instead of fear, he became even more fascinated with chemical reactions. In second grade, he frequently sneaked into middle school chemistry classes. After moving to Shenzhen, he self-studied the entire junior high chemistry curriculum within a year, completing all experiments. At age 9, he found perchloric acid at a hospital and started his own chemistry lab. The true turning point came in 2007, when 12-year-old Lu Yulong found online a high-energy material codenamed DPP with enormous power. The documentation was only in English, but with junior-high-level English, he stubbornly translated the synthesis method using a dictionary. However, he mistranslated several reaction conditions. The explosion happened instantly. He was blasted, his left fingers severed, his right eye lens ruptured with iris damage. Over a dozen surgeries, more than 400 stitches, an artificial lens in his right eye, nearly two years in the hospital. After discharge, his original school refused to readmit him. His father, traumatized, destroyed his lab 24 times in fury. But Lu Yulong's first act after leaving the hospital was rebuilding his lab. He said: 'Scars are my medals of honor; I left part of my body on a new continent.' With chemistry blocked, he turned to high-voltage electricity and man-made lightning. In 2009, he saw Tesla coil videos online—people creating lightning from nothing. Thrilled, he secretly bought materials and built a tin shed lab in the countryside. At 45 degrees in summer without air conditioning, he would soak himself under a faucet before entering. While researching coils, he invented a transistor plasma arc dual-channel speaker. In 2010, this invention won him second prize in the National Youth Science Innovation Competition physics category and his first invention patent. In 2011, he appeared on China's Got Talent stage, wearing a black cape, manipulating lightning bare-handed. The nickname 'Lightning Boy' went viral overnight. He was 16 years old.

### 2. 拒绝清北：一个17岁的火箭公司 / Rejecting Tsinghua: A 17-Year-Old's Rocket Company

凭借全国青少年科技创新大赛的获奖和专利，清华大学和北京大学的保送资格摆在了卢驭龙面前。在绝大多数人看来，这是改变命运的黄金门票。但卢驭龙做出了一个令所有人匪夷所思的决定：拒绝保送，辍学创业。他的理由简单而直接：我已经在做火箭发动机了，大学里的知识跟不上我的节奏。早在读初中时，他就看到国外爱好者自制液体火箭发动机的视频，从此埋下了航天梦想的种子。2009年，14岁的卢驭龙开始研究火箭发动机。他用做闪电特效赚来的钱购买材料，在深圳龙岗区一个偏远角落开始了火箭研发。最初只是在做闪电实验时，想用带马赫环的高温气流吹热缩管，顺手做了一台微型火箭发动机。点火那一刻，震耳的轰鸣、强劲的推力，让他彻底沦陷。从固液混合到液体发动机，从液氢、煤油到甲烷、乙醇，市面上能想到的燃料组合他几乎全都试了一遍。2012年，17岁的卢驭龙注册成立了深圳驭龙航天科技有限公司。注册公司的原因非常实际：火箭发动机研发到一定规模，需要购买管制原材料，没有公司根本申请不了。彼时中国民营航天还是一个几乎没有人在意的概念，整个行业处于空白状态。没有成熟的产业链，没有政策支持，没有技术参考，甚至连一个可以交流的同行人都不存在。创业初期，既没资金又没实验室的卢驭龙，只能在深圳龙岗区坪地街道找到一处偏远的农家小院作为研发基地。破旧的大铁门，没有经过水泥硬化的地面，周遭是几十年的老旧房子，院子里杂草丛生，还养着鸡鸭。谁也想不到，这个地方会成为一处航天研发基地。当时团队仅有几名核心成员，缺乏专业设备和高端技术资源，研发工作主要依靠手工操作和简易工具完成，许多零部件都需要自行打磨和组装。更大的困难是资金。为了搞钱，卢驭龙想过不少门路，不仅代言过游戏，还靠做闪电特效赚钱。最困难的时候，团队半年发不出全额工资，副总8个月未领工资、社保断缴。但卢驭龙靠着对航天的狂热执着，硬是在这个简陋的农家小院里坚持了下来。据他后来回忆，做出这个决定时内心其实很忐忑，但火箭发动机的轰鸣声比任何大学录取通知书都更能让他心跳加速。

**English:** With his National Youth Science Innovation Competition award and patent, admission offers from Tsinghua University and Peking University were placed before Lu Yulong. To most people, these were golden tickets to change one's destiny. But Lu Yulong made a decision that baffled everyone: reject the offers, drop out, and start a business. His reasoning was simple and direct: 'I'm already building rocket engines. University knowledge can't keep up with my pace.' As early as middle school, he had watched videos of foreign enthusiasts building homemade liquid rocket engines, planting the seed of his space dream. In 2009, at 14, Lu Yulong began researching rocket engines. Using money earned from lightning special effects, he purchased materials and began rocket R&D in a remote corner of Shenzhen's Longgang District. Initially, while doing lightning experiments, he wanted to use hot gas with Mach diamonds to shrink tubes, and casually built a micro rocket engine. At the moment of ignition—the deafening roar, the powerful thrust—he was completely captivated. From solid-liquid hybrid to liquid engines, from liquid hydrogen, kerosene to methane and ethanol, he tried nearly every fuel combination imaginable. In 2012, 17-year-old Lu Yulong registered Shenzhen Yulong Aerospace Technology Co., Ltd. The reason for registering was purely practical: at a certain scale of rocket engine R&D, controlled raw materials were needed, impossible to obtain without a company. At the time, China's private aerospace was a concept almost nobody cared about; the entire industry was a blank slate. No mature supply chain, no policy support, no technical references, not even a single peer to exchange ideas with. In the early days, without funding or a proper lab, Lu Yulong found a remote farmhouse in Pingdi Street, Longgang District, as his R&D base. Rusted iron gates, unfinished concrete ground, decades-old buildings surrounding the yard, weeds growing everywhere, chickens and ducks roaming. Nobody would guess this place would become an aerospace R&D facility. The team had only a few core members, lacking professional equipment and high-end technical resources. R&D relied mainly on manual work and simple tools, with many components hand-polished and assembled. Greater difficulty was funding. To raise money, Lu Yulong tried many things—video game endorsements, lightning effects work. At the hardest times, the team went half a year without full wages; the deputy general manager went 8 months without pay, social insurance lapsed. But driven by fanatical devotion to aerospace, Lu Yulong persisted in this humble farmhouse. According to his later recollection, making this decision was actually quite nerve-wracking at the time, but the roar of a rocket engine made his heart race far more than any university admission letter ever could.

### 3. 低成本密码：用工业供应链造火箭的疯狂逻辑 / The Low-Cost Code: The Crazy Logic of Building Rockets with Industrial Supply Chains

在航天领域，每一个零件都有严格的宇航级标准。材料要耐高温、耐辐射、耐极端环境，供应商需要通过层层认证，一颗螺丝钉的价格可能高达数百元。这是行业几十年来不可动摇的铁律。但卢驭龙偏偏要打破这个铁律。他的核心逻辑是：中国拥有全球最强的工业制造基础，一个县级市就有几十家上百家不锈钢管件加工企业。这种产业规模是其他国家无法比拟的。如果把成熟的工业级、民用级产品通过创新设计组合成航天结构件，用工业和民用供应链替换传统宇航制造供应链，成本可以降低一到两个数量级。于是，驭龙航天走上了一条完全不同于行业主流的技术路线。第一，去冗余——牺牲部分航天领域非必要的参数指标，以适中的性能换取极致的低成本与可靠性。第二，工业供应链替代宇航供应链——大量使用成熟的工业产品，用工业级不锈钢替代昂贵的宇航级合金，用民用芯片取代航天特供部件。所有原材料来自国内工业化和民用的货架产品，核心零部件100%国产化，无任何进口环节。第三，挤压式技术路线——不同于行业普遍追求的泵压式或涡轮泵路线，驭龙航天选择了对工程简化极致的挤压式循环加针栓式喷注器方案。传统泵压式发动机零件数动辄三四千个，而驭龙的挤压式方案将零件数量压到几十个。零件数大幅减少意味着故障概率降低、生产周期缩短、成本暴降。最具颠覆性的是成本数据：驭龙航天的液体火箭发动机每吨推力成本低于1000元人民币，是行业传统方案的五十分之一。规模化量产后，运载成本可降至每公斤300到1000元，远低于当前市场主流价格。更惊人的是，经测算，一次性火箭的理论成本甚至低于可回收火箭回收10次后的单次成本。为了省下造价上亿的试车场投入，团队还研发了大推力液体火箭发动机倒置点火技术，实现了世界首次公开应用。这种种看似疯狂的做法，背后是一个清晰的商业判断：在商业航天规模化需求下，适当牺牲性能换取量产能力，是符合市场需求的选择。这种对传统航天成本结构的颠覆性挑战，使得驭龙航天在行业内既受到赞赏也饱受质疑，但也正是这种质疑推动着整个行业对成本优化的深入思考。

**English:** In aerospace, every component follows strict space-grade standards. Materials must withstand extreme temperatures, radiation, and harsh environments. Suppliers need layers of certification—a single screw can cost hundreds of yuan. This is an iron rule the industry has held for decades. But Lu Yulong insisted on breaking it. His core logic: China possesses the world's strongest industrial manufacturing base. A single county-level city has dozens or even hundreds of stainless steel pipe processing enterprises. This industrial scale is unmatched elsewhere. If mature industrial and civilian-grade products could be combined through innovative design into aerospace structural components, replacing traditional space manufacturing supply chains with industrial and civilian ones, costs could drop by one to two orders of magnitude. Thus, Yulong Aerospace took a completely different technical route from industry mainstream. First, de-redundancy—sacrificing some non-essential aerospace parameters for moderate performance in exchange for ultimate low cost and reliability. Second, industrial supply chain replacing space-grade supply chain—extensively using mature industrial products, substituting expensive space-grade alloys with industrial stainless steel, replacing space-spec chips with civilian ones. All raw materials come from domestic industrial and civilian off-the-shelf products, with 100% domestic components and zero imports. Third, pressure-fed technology route—instead of the pump-fed or turbopump routes commonly pursued by the industry, Yulong Aerospace chose the engineering-simplified极致 of pressure-fed circulation with pintle injector design. Traditional pump-fed engines have 3,000-4,000 components, while Yulong's pressure-fed approach reduces parts to dozens. Fewer parts mean lower failure probability, shorter production cycles, and dramatically lower costs. Most disruptive are the cost figures: Yulong Aerospace's liquid rocket engines cost less than 1,000 yuan per ton of thrust—one-fiftieth of traditional industry approaches. After mass production, launch costs could drop to 300-1,000 yuan per kilogram, far below current mainstream market prices. More remarkably, calculations show that disposable rocket theoretical costs are even lower than reusable rockets after 10 recovery cycles. To save on the 100-million-yuan cost of building a test facility, the team also developed an inverted ignition technique for high-thrust liquid rocket engines, achieving the world's first public application. Behind these seemingly crazy practices lies a clear business judgment: in the context of commercial space scaling needs, appropriately sacrificing performance for mass production capability is a market-aligned choice. This disruptive challenge to the traditional aerospace cost structure has made Yulong Aerospace both admired and questioned within the industry, but it is precisely this questioning that drives deeper thinking about cost optimization across the entire sector.

### 4. 电焰灶之殇：一次差点毁掉一切的盲目扩张 / The Electric Flame Stove Tragedy: A Near-Fatal Blind Expansion

在卢驭龙的创业故事中，电焰灶是一个绕不过去的话题。他也坦言，这是他创业路上最大的黑历史。2017年前后，卢驭龙在做火箭发动机研发时，发现等离子技术能在真空中产生强烈的等离子射流，性质和火焰一样。他试了一下烤鸭子，结果一分半钟生鸭就烤熟了，火力特别猛。这个航天副产品让他看到了商业化的可能性。他把这项技术做成了产品——电焰灶，一种利用电能产生高温等离子体火焰的厨房设备，无需燃气。项目一度非常成功。公司估值达到15亿元，三个月预收4000多万元，团队一度扩张到四五百人。卢驭龙套现2000多万元，实现了财务自由。但年少轻狂和管理经验的缺乏很快暴露。盲目扩张导致团队臃肿，公司运营陷入混乱。疫情期间，项目更是雪上加霜。最终电焰灶项目破产清算，卢驭龙卖房卖车还债，一度深陷多起商业纠纷，处于随时被执行的边缘。他个人负债数千万，火箭研发也一度中断。那段日子是他人生最黑暗的时刻。从一个身家过亿的创业者，到负债累累的老赖，落差之大足以击垮任何人。但卢驭龙没有被打垮。他把这次失败归结为一个核心教训：公司业务没达到相应规模时，不能盲目扩张团队。他把最后一辆超跑卖掉，捐建了一所希望小学，然后沉下心来，带着最精简的团队，回到最初的热爱的事情——造火箭。电焰灶的失败意外地锻造了一个更成熟的卢驭龙。此前他是一个纯粹的技术狂热者，对商业运营一窍不通。此后他学会了克制、聚焦和精品小团队的运作模式。他明确表示，驭龙航天会保持精品小团队，后续会根据业务需求补充人才，但绝对不会盲目扩张。正是这次惨痛的失败，让后来的驭龙航天能以极精简的5人团队完成深圳先锋号的总装和发射。从某种意义上说，电焰灶的崩塌是卢驭龙创业生涯中最重要的转折点。它把一个浮躁的天才少年，锤炼成了一个务实坚韧的创业者。这个教训后来深刻影响了驭龙航天的运营哲学。卢驭龙多次在公开场合坦承，电焰灶的失败是他人生的至暗时刻，但也是最重要的转折点，它迫使他重新审视自己与创业的关系，学会了敬畏商业规律。

**English:** In Lu Yulong's entrepreneurial story, the electric flame stove is an unavoidable topic. He openly admits it was the biggest 'black history' of his career. Around 2017, while doing rocket engine R&D, Lu Yulong discovered that plasma technology could generate intense plasma jets in vacuum, with properties similar to flames. He tried roasting a duck—result: a raw duck was fully cooked in 90 seconds, the firepower was incredible. This aerospace byproduct showed him commercialization potential. He turned the technology into a product—the electric flame stove, a kitchen device generating high-temperature plasma flame from electricity, no gas needed. The project was initially very successful. Company valuation reached 1.5 billion yuan, pre-orders exceeded 40 million yuan in three months, and the team expanded to 400-500 people. Lu Yulong cashed out over 20 million yuan, achieving financial freedom. But youthful arrogance and lack of management experience quickly surfaced. Blind expansion led to bloated teams and chaotic operations. During the pandemic, the project suffered further. Eventually the electric flame stove project went bankrupt and liquidated. Lu Yulong sold his house and car to repay debts, became embroiled in multiple commercial disputes, and stood on the edge of enforcement actions. He was personally tens of millions in debt, and rocket R&D was interrupted. Those days were the darkest period of his life. From a hundred-million-yuan entrepreneur to debt-ridden pariah—the gap was enough to crush anyone. But Lu Yulong was not broken. He attributed this failure to one core lesson: when a company hasn't reached appropriate scale, never blindly expand the team. He sold his last sports car, donated to build a hope primary school, then settled down, leading the most streamlined team back to his original passion—building rockets. The electric flame stove failure unexpectedly forged a more mature Lu Yulong. Previously a pure technology enthusiast, clueless about business operations. Afterward, he learned restraint, focus, and boutique small-team operations. He explicitly stated Yulong Aerospace would maintain a boutique small team, supplementing talent based on business needs, but never blindly expanding. It was precisely this painful failure that enabled the later Yulong Aerospace to complete the Shenzhen Pioneer rocket's assembly and launch with an extremely lean 5-person team. In a sense, the electric flame stove's collapse was the most important turning point in Lu Yulong's career. It transformed a frivolous genius youth into a pragmatic, resilient entrepreneur. This lesson profoundly shaped Yulong Aerospace's operational philosophy. Lu Yulong has openly admitted on multiple occasions that the failure of the electric flame stove was the darkest moment of his life, but also the most important turning point, forcing him to re-examine his relationship with entrepreneurship and learn to respect the laws of business.

### 5. 涅槃重生：从1吨到20吨的惊人跨越 / Phoenix Rebirth: The Stunning Leap from 1 Ton to 20 Tons

从电焰灶的废墟中站起来后，卢驭龙把所有的精力和资金都砸向了火箭。团队精简到十余人，所有人都住在龙岗的农家小院里，过着苦行僧般的生活。最困难的时候，团队半年发不出全额工资，靠信念硬撑。但卢驭龙的技术积累在这段沉寂期得到了质的飞跃。他带领团队系统性地攻克了多个关键技术：从1吨级挤压循环液体发动机的成功，到百吨级燃烧室建模，再到固液混合火箭的突破。2016年1月，驭龙航天在海南成功发射了中国首枚纯私企液体火箭新大主宰号，实现了从0到1的突破。此后数年，他陆续完成了1吨级发动机、百吨级燃烧室建模、固液混合火箭等多个关键试验。2024年，无脚鸟号探空火箭成功升空，完成了复杂飞控与二次点火验证，成本仅数万元。真正的飞跃发生在2025年底。卢驭龙团队完成了人类首次20吨级大推力液体火箭发动机倒置点火测试，验证了极端姿态下的可靠性。这个突破的意义在于：此前没有人相信挤压式发动机可以实现如此大的推力。航天领域普遍认为，挤压式循环发动机结构简单、性能有限，仅适用于小推力场景，难以支撑运载火箭实际发射。卢驭龙团队用事实证明这个共识是错误的。联合创始人付裕说：在成功试射20吨推力火箭之前，团队试验成功过1吨级，没人相信从1吨到20吨的巨大跨越能够成功。20吨级的成功直接回应了两大质疑：一是挤压式发动机可实现大推力，突破传统上限；二是低成本方案能快速集成火箭并稳定飞行，具备工程实用价值。这个突破让市场和资本开始重新审视驭龙航天。天使投资人张伟春从北京飞到深圳，在那个农家院子里看了试车，聊了20分钟，第二天便打来200万。没有压估值，没有谈条件，就一句话：赶紧把工资发了，把社保交上。随后，中国科学院对驭龙航天的研发成果表示了认可和点赞。高校和科研院所的订单纷至沓来。从1吨到20吨的跨越不仅证明了技术的可行性，更让团队积累了宝贵的系统工程经验。这段经历也让他更加珍惜每一笔来之不易的投资，并坚定了用最小的团队做最核心事情的理念。

**English:** After rising from the electric flame stove's ruins, Lu Yulong poured all energy and funds into rockets. The team was streamlined to about a dozen people, all living in the Longgang farmhouse, leading an ascetic life. At the hardest times, the team went half a year without full wages, sustained by belief alone. But Lu Yulong's technical accumulation made qualitative leaps during this quiet period. He led the team to systematically overcome multiple key technologies: from successful 1-ton pressure-fed liquid engines, to 100-ton-class combustion chamber modeling, to solid-liquid hybrid rocket breakthroughs. In January 2016, Yulong Aerospace successfully launched China's first purely private liquid rocket, 'Xin Da Zhuzai,' in Hainan, achieving the breakthrough from 0 to 1. Over subsequent years, he completed 1-ton engines, 100-ton combustion chamber modeling, and multiple key solid-liquid hybrid rocket tests. In 2024, the 'Wujiao Bird' sounding rocket successfully launched, completing complex flight control and secondary ignition verification at a cost of only tens of thousands of yuan. The true leap occurred in late 2025. Lu Yulong's team completed humanity's first 20-ton high-thrust liquid rocket engine inverted ignition test, verifying reliability under extreme attitudes. The significance: nobody previously believed pressure-fed engines could achieve such high thrust. The aerospace field generally held that pressure-fed engines were simple-structured with limited performance, only suitable for small-thrust scenarios, unable to support actual rocket launches. Lu Yulong's team proved this consensus wrong with facts. Co-founder Fu Yu said: 'Before successfully test-firing the 20-ton thrust rocket, we had succeeded with 1-ton. Nobody believed the huge leap from 1 ton to 20 tons could succeed.' The 20-ton success directly answered two challenges: first, pressure-fed engines can achieve high thrust, breaking traditional limits; second, low-cost approaches can quickly integrate rockets and achieve stable flight with engineering practical value. This breakthrough made the market and capital re-evaluate Yulong Aerospace. Angel investor Zhang Weichun flew from Beijing to Shenzhen, watched a test fire in that farmhouse, chatted for 20 minutes, and wired 2 million yuan the next day. No pressure on valuation, no conditions—just one sentence: 'Hurry up and pay wages, pay social insurance.' Subsequently, the Chinese Academy of Sciences expressed recognition of Yulong Aerospace's R&D results. Orders from universities and research institutes came flooding in. The leap from 1 ton to 20 tons not only demonstrated technical feasibility but also allowed the team to accumulate invaluable systems engineering experience. This journey also made him cherish every hard-won investment even more deeply, and reinforced his conviction of doing the most critical work with the smallest possible team.

### 6. 深圳先锋号：5个人15天造出的火箭 / Shenzhen Pioneer: A Rocket Built by 5 People in 15 Days

2026年2月初，驭龙航天携高12米、直径1米、起飞推力20吨的科普型探空火箭深圳先锋号，在青海冷湖无人区成功发射。飞行高度达到3.7公里，刷新了当地液体火箭发射高度纪录。这次发射的意义远超一次技术验证。它证明了廉价发动机集成到箭上、形成完整的火箭系统是可行的。更具冲击力的是制造过程：这款火箭由一支5人团队耗时15天，在深圳龙岗一处农家小院手工打造完成，单次制造成本仅数万元。火箭搭载2吨钢板假负载，受空域限制仅加注六分之一燃料，仍顺利完成升空与姿态控制，发动机、结构、飞控均达到预期。联合创始人付裕特别强调：从总装、测试到发射回收，不算路上时间，5个人15天就干完了。这个数字在航天领域几乎是不可思议的。传统航天项目需要成百上千人的团队、数年的研制周期、数以亿计的研发投入。驭龙航天用5个人和15天完成了同等量级的飞行验证。深圳先锋号的命名饱含深意。卢驭龙作为深圳本土民营航天创业者，希望以先锋之姿，在这片科创热土上探索民营商业航天的更多可能性。深圳给了他什么？珠三角恐怖的供应链，拿着图纸三天能出样品的制造能力。从2012年公司注册至今，深圳在试验场地、政策对接、产业配套上提供了坚实保障。从国防科工办到街道办，在给予政策扶持的同时，帮忙寻找、协调测试场地，让发射任务得以合规顺利完成。龙岗区提供的测试场地，解决了民营航天最稀缺的大型发动机点火试验空间。卢驭龙感慨，深圳的拼劲、效率、供应链响应速度是其他城市难以比拟的。大湾区机加工、电子、精密制造产业集中，零部件可快速对接多家供应商，迭代效率高、成本低，适合初创团队快速推进研发。正是这片创新创业的沃土，让一个从爱好者起步的团队成长为具备核心技术的商业航天企业。值得一提的是，受限于空域管制，此次发射仅加注了约六分之一的燃料，搭载了两吨重的钢板假负载，即便如此仍圆满完成了预定任务。这次发射被外界视为中国民营航天史上效率最高的火箭制造案例之一。

**English:** In early February 2026, Yulong Aerospace carried the 12-meter-high, 1-meter-diameter, 20-ton-thrust popular science sounding rocket 'Shenzhen Pioneer' to Qinghai's Lenghu no-man's land for a successful launch. Flight altitude reached 3.7 kilometers, setting a new local record for liquid rocket launches. This launch's significance far exceeded a technical demonstration. It proved that cheap engines integrated into a complete rocket system is feasible. Even more impactful was the manufacturing process: this rocket was hand-built by a 5-person team over 15 days in a Longgang farmhouse in Shenzhen, at a single-unit manufacturing cost of only tens of thousands of yuan. The rocket carried a 2-ton steel plate dummy payload, with only one-sixth fuel load due to airspace restrictions, yet smoothly completed ascent and attitude control. Engine, structure, and flight control all met expectations. Co-founder Fu Yu emphasized: 'From final assembly, testing to launch and recovery—excluding travel time—5 people finished in 15 days.' This number is nearly inconceivable in the aerospace field. Traditional space projects require teams of hundreds or thousands, development cycles of years, and R&D investments of hundreds of millions. Yulong Aerospace completed an equivalent-level flight demonstration with 5 people in 15 days. The naming of Shenzhen Pioneer carries deep meaning. As a Shenzhen native private space entrepreneur, Lu Yulong hoped to pioneer new possibilities for private commercial aerospace on this innovation hotbed. What did Shenzhen give him? The Pearl River Delta's formidable supply chain—the manufacturing capability to produce prototypes from blueprints in three days. From company registration in 2012 to present, Shenzhen provided solid support in test sites, policy alignment, and industrial matching. From the national defense science office to the street office, while providing policy support, they helped find and coordinate test sites, enabling compliant and smooth launch missions. Longgang District's test sites solved the most scarce resource for private aerospace: large engine ignition test space. Lu Yulong remarked that Shenzhen's drive, efficiency, and supply chain response speed are unmatched by other cities. The Greater Bay Area's concentrated machining, electronics, and precision manufacturing industries allow rapid component sourcing from multiple suppliers, with high iteration efficiency and low costs, ideal for startup teams advancing R&D quickly. It was precisely this fertile ground for innovation that allowed a team starting from hobbyists to grow into a commercial aerospace enterprise with core technologies. Notably, due to airspace restrictions, the launch was conducted with only about one-sixth of the fuel capacity and carried a two-ton steel plate dummy payload. Even under these constraints, the mission was completed successfully. This launch has been regarded by outside observers as one of the most efficient rocket manufacturing cases in the history of China's private aerospace industry.

### 7. 争议中的前行：天才、骗子还是第三种可能？ / Moving Forward Amid Controversy: Genius, Fraud, or a Third Possibility?

做火箭以来，卢驭龙一直备受关注，也饱受争议。在某社交媒体上，他有100多万粉丝。网友爱看他和团队手搓火箭，爱看他一次又一次做实验。当然，评论区也吵得不可开交。支持他的人觉得他是中国的马斯克，质疑他的人觉得他在瞎折腾。争议的核心在于几个方面。第一是学历问题。卢驭龙高中毕业后直接创业，没有大学学历。在以学历论英雄的航天领域，这几乎是一个原罪。部分专家质疑他的技术基础和理论功底，认为一个没有接受过系统航天教育的人不可能做出真正有竞争力的产品。第二是技术路线争议。挤压式发动机被许多航天专家认为天花板太低，难以支撑入轨级火箭的需求。他们指出，SpaceX的成功恰恰是因为选择了高性能的可回收路线，而卢驭龙的低成本路线可能在性能上永远无法达到入轨要求。第三是电焰灶的历史包袱。尽管卢驭龙已经明确表态不会重蹈覆辙，但电焰灶的失败经历让一些投资人和合作伙伴对他持保留态度。面对这些质疑，卢驭龙保持了理性平和的态度。他不刻意辩解，只用试验、发射和数据回应。他每天投入14个小时在实验研发中，根本无暇在意外界的声音。你不能以最终的成败来判定它是否有意义。即使失败，过程中产生的东西也是有价值的。于我而言，做的过程已经足够满足和快乐了。卢驭龙说。天使投资人张伟春对他的评价或许最为中肯：从实际成本看，驭龙航天一次性发射成本已做到3500元每公斤，远低于行业可回收火箭普遍瞄准的20000元每公斤目标成本。技术路线的选择没有绝对的对错，关键在于能否满足特定市场需求。在商业航天快速发展的今天，国家队主攻高精尖深空探测，大型商业航天聚焦可回收技术，而驭龙航天专注低成本、快响应、规模化的发射服务。这三条路线形成互补而非竞争的关系，共同构成了中国商业航天的多元生态。这种错位发展策略使驭龙航天有效避开了与头部企业的正面竞争，在夹缝中找到了自己的生存空间。天使投资人张伟春对此评价道，驭龙航天的实际成本数据已经说明了一切，路线之争最终要靠市场来检验。

**English:** Since building rockets, Lu Yulong has been both highly watched and heavily criticized. On social media, he has over 1 million followers. Fans love watching him and his team hand-build rockets, love watching experiment after experiment. Of course, comment sections are also fiercely divided. Supporters see him as China's Musk; critics see him as wasting time. Controversy centers on several aspects. First, the education issue. Lu Yulong started a business straight out of high school without a university degree. In the aerospace field where credentials matter, this is almost an original sin. Some experts question his technical foundation and theoretical knowledge, arguing that someone without systematic aerospace education cannot produce truly competitive products. Second, technical route disputes. Many aerospace experts consider pressure-fed engines to have too low a ceiling for orbital-class rockets. They point out that SpaceX's success came precisely from choosing the high-performance reusable route, and Lu Yulong's low-cost approach may never achieve orbital requirements. Third, the electric flame stove's historical baggage. Although Lu Yulong has clearly stated he won't repeat mistakes, the failure experience makes some investors and partners cautious. Facing these doubts, Lu Yulong maintained a rational and calm attitude. He doesn't deliberately defend himself, responding only with tests, launches, and data. He dedicates 14 hours daily to experimental R&D, with no time to care about outside voices. 'You cannot judge whether something is meaningful solely by final success or failure. Even in failure, what's produced in the process has value. For me, the process itself is satisfying and joyful enough,' Lu Yulong said. Angel investor Zhang Weichun's assessment may be most balanced: 'Looking at actual costs, Yulong Aerospace's disposable launch cost has achieved 3,500 yuan per kilogram, far below the 20,000 yuan per kilogram target that reusable rockets in the industry commonly aim for. There's no absolute right or wrong in technical route selection—the key is whether it can meet specific market needs.' In today's rapidly developing commercial aerospace, national teams focus on high-end deep space exploration, large commercial aerospace companies focus on reusable technology, while Yulong Aerospace focuses on low-cost, fast-response, scalable launch services. These three routes form a complementary rather than competitive relationship, together constituting a diverse ecosystem for China's commercial aerospace. This differentiated development strategy enables Yulong Aerospace to effectively avoid direct competition with leading enterprises, carving out its own survival space in the gaps between them. Angel investor Zhang Weichun commented that Yulong Aerospace's actual cost data speaks for itself, and the debate over routes will ultimately be settled by the market.

### 8. 未来图景：从探空火箭到轨道发射的野心 / The Future Picture: Ambitions from Sounding Rockets to Orbital Launches

深圳先锋号的成功发射只是一个开始。卢驭龙和团队有着清晰而务实的未来规划。短期目标是2026年底完成100吨级一子级发动机与火箭测试。这将是驭龙航天从探空火箭迈向运载火箭的关键一步。中期目标是2027年开展运载火箭入轨试验，逐步推进商业发射。长期目标是建设超级工厂，以高频次、低成本能力支撑低轨卫星发射。按照卢驭龙的设想，未来要实现深圳造火箭、常态化送卫星入轨。驭龙航天的市场定位非常明确：不是要和头部企业竞争，而是做重要补充。国家航天院所主攻高精尖、深空探测，大型商业航天聚焦可回收技术，而驭龙航天专注低成本、快响应、规模化的发射服务，形成错位发展、互补共生的良性产业生态。这个定位背后是一个真实的市場需求。随着低轨卫星星座的大规模部署，对低成本、高频次发射服务的需求正在爆发式增长。不是所有卫星都需要最高性能的火箭来发射——大量中小型卫星、科研载荷、技术验证任务，对成本敏感度远高于对性能极致性的要求。这正是驭龙航天的目标市场。目前，驭龙航天已获得中山大学及多家国家院所、高校的订单。蜜獾号亚轨道火箭更是拿到了国家政府订单。研发成果获得了中国科学院的认可。公司正在积极申请军工三证、保密资质等，为后续的轨道级发射任务做准备。在技术储备方面，驭龙航天已有7款发动机实现量产，推力覆盖30公斤到20吨。发动机月产能已达数百台。100吨级一子级发动机即将完成测试。卢驭龙还计划在未来建设超级工厂，实现火箭的流水线式量产。以工业化思路重塑火箭研发制造模式，真正做到造得起、批量化、用得上。对于火箭走进千家万户的愿景，卢驭龙保持着清醒的认识。火箭因具有军民两用性，不可能像汽车一样成为常见消费品。但手机导航、天气预警等卫星服务早已融入日常生活，卫星发射与火箭技术息息相关。随着低成本发射技术的成熟，天基互联网将实现更广泛覆盖，让沙漠、海洋等无人区也能便捷通信。甚至太空旅游也将不再是遥不可及的梦想。这一愿景虽然宏大，但每一步都有扎实的技术积累作为支撑，从五人团队的农家小院到未来的超级工厂，路径清晰而坚定。

**English:** The successful launch of Shenzhen Pioneer was just the beginning. Lu Yulong and his team have clear, pragmatic future plans. The short-term goal is completing 100-ton first-stage engine and rocket testing by end of 2026. This will be Yulong Aerospace's critical step from sounding rockets to launch vehicles. The medium-term goal is conducting orbital launch tests in 2027, progressively advancing commercial launches. The long-term goal is building a super factory, supporting low-orbit satellite launches with high-frequency, low-cost capability. In Lu Yulong's vision, the future means 'Shenzhen-built rockets, routine satellite delivery to orbit.' Yulong Aerospace's market positioning is crystal clear: not competing with head enterprises, but serving as a crucial supplement. National aerospace institutes focus on high-end deep space exploration; large commercial aerospace focuses on reusable technology; Yulong Aerospace focuses on low-cost, fast-response, scalable launch services—forming a misaligned, complementary, symbiotic healthy industrial ecosystem. This positioning is backed by real market demand. With large-scale low-orbit satellite constellation deployment, demand for low-cost, high-frequency launch services is exploding. Not all satellites need the highest-performance rockets—many small and medium satellites, scientific payloads, and technology verification missions are far more cost-sensitive than performance-maximizing. This is exactly Yulong Aerospace's target market. Currently, Yulong Aerospace has secured orders from Sun Yat-sen University and multiple national institutes and universities. The 'Honey Badger' suborbital rocket even secured a national government order. R&D results gained Chinese Academy of Sciences recognition. The company is actively applying for military industry certifications and security qualifications, preparing for future orbital launch missions. In technology reserves, Yulong Aerospace has 7 engine types in mass production, with thrust covering 30 kg to 20 tons. Monthly engine production capacity has reached hundreds of units. A 100-ton first-stage engine is about to complete testing. Lu Yulong also plans to build a super factory for assembly-line rocket mass production—using industrial thinking to reshape rocket R&D and manufacturing, truly achieving affordable, batch-producible, usable rockets. Regarding the vision of rockets becoming commonplace, Lu Yulong remains clear-eyed. Due to dual military-civilian use, rockets cannot become common consumer products like cars. But satellite services like phone navigation and weather warnings are already part of daily life, closely tied to rocket technology. As low-cost launch technology matures, space-based internet will achieve broader coverage, enabling convenient communication even in deserts and oceans. Even space tourism will no longer be a distant dream. This vision, while ambitious, is supported by solid technological accumulation at every step of the way, from the farmhouse courtyard of a five-person team to the future super factory, with a clear and resolute path forward.

### 9. 中国民营航天的另一种可能：深圳龙岗的启示 / Another Possibility for China's Private Space: Lessons from Shenzhen Longgang

卢驭龙和驭龙航天的故事，折射出中国民营航天产业发展的一个独特切面。在中国商业航天的版图上，深蓝航天、星际荣耀、天兵科技等企业选择的是对标SpaceX的高性能可回收火箭路线，融资数轮、团队数百人、估值数十亿。而驭龙航天走的是一条完全不同的路：没有豪华团队，没有巨额融资，甚至没有一个像样的办公楼——只有深圳龙岗一处农家小院、几个狂热的人和一套颠覆性的低成本逻辑。这两种路线并不是对立的。中国的制造业优势为两种路线都提供了土壤。深蓝航天选择了3D打印技术制造发动机，85%重量的零件由3D打印一体成型，雷霆RS发动机达到130吨级推力。而驭龙航天选择了工业供应链替代宇航供应链，用民用货架产品组合成航天结构件。两条路线的共同点是都在尝试打破传统航天的高成本壁垒，只是手段不同。卢驭龙的故事对行业的启示在于：中国民营航天不必只有华山一条路。在国家队和头部企业的精英路线之外，用中国强大的工业制造基础走低成本量产路线，同样可以为中国航天事业贡献力量。一个县级市就有几十家上百家不锈钢管件加工企业的产业规模，拿着图纸三天能出样品的制造能力——这种优势是其他国家无法复制的。卢驭龙所做的，就是把这种优势发挥到极致。从某种意义上说，卢驭龙代表了中国民营航天的草根力量。他没有体制内的资源和人脉，没有顶尖院校的光环，甚至没有完整的大学教育。他有的只是对航天的狂热热爱、十七年如一日的坚持、以及对中国制造业优势的深刻理解。在深圳这片创新创业的沃土上，他用最土的手搓方式，撬动了最顶级的航天梦想。无论驭龙航天最终能否实现入轨发射，卢驭龙已经证明了一件事：在中国的制造业基础上，低成本航天不是一种空想，而是一条可行的、有独特竞争力的路线。他的故事将激励更多年轻人相信：太空不必然是昂贵者的游戏。只要有热爱、有执着、有对中国制造的信心，一个农家小院也能造出飞向太空的火箭。这或许就是卢驭龙和驭龙航天留给我们最大的启示：在航天这个最顶尖的科技领域，中国的草根创新力量同样不可小觑。

**English:** The story of Lu Yulong and Yulong Aerospace reflects a unique facet of China's private space industry development. On China's commercial space map, companies like Deep Blue Aerospace, Galactic Energy, and Space Pioneer chose the SpaceX-benchmarking high-performance reusable rocket route—multiple funding rounds, teams of hundreds, valuations in the billions. Yulong Aerospace walks a completely different path: no luxury team, no massive funding, not even a proper office building—just a farmhouse in Shenzhen Longgang, a handful of fanatics, and a disruptive low-cost logic. These two routes are not contradictory. China's manufacturing advantages provide soil for both. Deep Blue Aerospace chose 3D printing to manufacture engines, with 85% weight of parts formed by 3D printing integration, the Lei Ting RS engine reaching 130-ton thrust. Yulong Aerospace chose industrial supply chain replacement of space-grade supply chain, assembling aerospace structures from civilian off-the-shelf products. Both routes' commonality is attempting to break traditional aerospace's high-cost barriers, just through different means. Lu Yulong's story's lesson for the industry: China's private aerospace doesn't have only one path. Beyond the elite routes of national teams and head enterprises, using China's powerful industrial manufacturing base for low-cost mass production can equally contribute to China's aerospace endeavors. A single county-level city has dozens to hundreds of stainless steel processing enterprises; manufacturing capability to produce prototypes from blueprints in three days—this advantage is unreplicable elsewhere. What Lu Yulong does is push this advantage to its extreme. In a sense, Lu Yulong represents the grassroots power of China's private aerospace. No institutional resources or connections, no elite university halo, not even a complete university education. What he has is fanatical love for aerospace, seventeen years of consistent persistence, and deep understanding of China's manufacturing advantages. On Shenzhen's fertile ground for innovation, he used the most grassroots hand-building approach to leverage the most elite aerospace dreams. Regardless of whether Yulong Aerospace ultimately achieves orbital launch, Lu Yulong has already proven one thing: on China's manufacturing foundation, low-cost aerospace is not a fantasy but a viable route with unique competitiveness. His story will inspire more young people to believe: space need not be a game for the expensive. With passion, persistence, and confidence in Chinese manufacturing, even a farmhouse can build rockets that fly to space. This is perhaps the greatest legacy that Lu Yulong and Yulong Aerospace leave us with: in aerospace, the most cutting-edge field of science and technology, China's grassroots innovation capability should never be underestimated.

## 卷尾 Editorial Conclusion

将卢驭龙的轨迹放入中国商业航天的时间长河中审视，它占据了一个无法被任何精英创业叙事替代的独特坐标。

这个坐标的价值不在于他最终是否实现了入轨发射——尽管他的团队正在朝这个方向全力推进。它的真正价值在于，他用一种前所未有的方式证明了在中国工业制造的基座上，低成本航天不仅是一个理论可能性，而是一个经过实地验证的工程事实。当整个行业都在追逐可回收火箭的高精尖路线、用数十亿元的融资堆叠技术壁垒时，他在深圳龙岗的农家小院里用工业级不锈钢和民用芯片造出了成本只有传统方案五十分之一的火箭发动机。

这个坐标的历史意义，将在中国商业航天的多元发展格局中持续显现。它代表了一条与"中国版SpaceX"截然不同的路径——不依赖海归精英背景，不追逐国际航天界的主流技术范式，而是深度利用中国制造业的成本优势和迭代速度，在最不被看好的赛道上硬生生撕开了一道口子。无论驭龙航天最终走多远，这条路径的存在本身就已经永久地改变了中国民营航天的想象边界。

亚洲《封面人物》杂志以终身档案编码永久存证这段轨迹。档案记录的不是一个天才少年的传奇，而是一个满身伤疤的极客用十七年偏执证明的一种可能性。当后人回顾中国商业航天的早期拓荒史，深圳龙岗那处养着鸡鸭的农家小院将成为一个无法绕过的地标——它提醒每一个后来者：创新的路径从来不止一条，最不被看好的那条路，有时候恰恰是走得最远的那条。

Lu Yulong's historical significance lies not in whether he ultimately becomes China's SpaceX, but in proving an unprecedented alternative possibility for China's private space industry. While the entire industry chases the high-end route of reusable rockets, he built rocket engines in a Shenzhen Longgang farmhouse using industrial-grade stainless steel and civilian chips—at one-fiftieth the cost of traditional approaches. His story is not a typical elite entrepreneurship narrative, but a scarred geek who, through seventeen years of obsession and passion, tore open a gap in the least favored track. Regardless of whether Yulong Aerospace ultimately achieves orbital launch, Lu Yulong has already left an indelible mark on China's commercial space history: he proved that space need not be a game for the expensive, and that China's manufacturing advantage lies not only in scale but in the ability to redefine cost boundaries with fundamentally different thinking.
