I Found A Planet

One hundred thousand square kilometers, more than 1% of the country's land area, larger than many provinces!

Can you buy so much land?

It stands to reason that it is impossible, country Z has a lot of people and little land, and there are not many large grain growers with contracted land of more than 10,000 mu, let alone 100,000 square kilometers.

But the land that Chen Jin wants to contract is not arable land, forest land, grassland or even any land that can grow green plants.

It's a barren desert.

According to statistics, the total area of ​​deserts in country Z is about 700,000 square kilometers. If the Gobi desert of more than 500,000 square kilometers is included, the total area will be 1.28 million square kilometers, accounting for 13% of the country's total land area.

The arid area in the northwest of country Z is the most concentrated area of ​​desert in country Z, accounting for about 80% of the total desert area of ​​the country.

The eight most famous deserts in country Z are: Taklimakan Desert, Gurbantunggut Desert, Badain Jaran Desert, Tengger Desert, Ulan Buhe Desert, Kubuqi Desert, Qaidam Basin Desert, Kumuta grid desert.

With so many deserts and millions of square kilometers of wasteland, it shouldn't be a big problem for Chen Jin to contract 10% of it, right?

By the way... why does he want to contract so much land?

"Land is the foundation of all things and the source of all values."

"One square kilometer is equal to 1,500 mu, and one hundred thousand square kilometers is equal to 150 million mu!"

"With so much land, part of it can be used to grow land and food. Assuming that 50 million mu is planted, the average economic value generated per mu is 1,000 yuan, which is 50 billion yuan per year."

"Use one-third of the land to plant trees, plant some economic forests, grow walnuts, apples, and various fruit trees. The return period of this type of investment is generally more than five years, and it will take ten years or dozens of years if it is long. years, but it is still profitable. Taking wood as an example, the value of an acre of 30-year-old economic forest exceeds 100,000, and the environmental protection value created is countless."

"The remaining one-third can be planted with large pastures to raise cattle and sheep, fish ponds can be set up to raise fish, some factories can be built, houses can be built, and Xinghai Technology's research centers can be moved there. In the depths of the northwest desert, build a high-tech city.”

"And around this city, there are Xinghai Technology's farms, Xinghai Technology's fish ponds, Xinghai Technology's ecological pig farms, chicken farms, and cattle farms, as well as large forests, orchards, and pastures... Food, clothing, housing and transportation, It is all self-sufficient, and the cost in all aspects is minimized."

"At that time, Xinghai Technology will not be the most profitable company in the country, but it will also be the company that is least likely to fail."

"Xinghai Technology will stand for one hundred years, two hundred years, and forever."

Why did Chen Jin say that?

Could it be possible that his Xinghai technology will fail with the cheats he opened and the resources he possesses?

Indeed!

Even if his hands are full of hangers, Xinghai Technology still has the possibility of closing down... Although Xinghai Technology is currently very profitable.

A high-tech enterprise like Xinghai Technology may still be "strangled" by all parties.

First of all, high-tech companies pay the most taxes, and a considerable part of the profits are taken away by the state... There is nothing wrong with this, it is just an obligation.

But you don’t enjoy much power. On the contrary, if your products are well-made and occupy an absolute market share, you will be suspected of monopoly and face penalties and fines... You can’t do too well, otherwise you will be restricted and suppressed.

In addition, technology is constantly iterating and competition is fierce. Once a high-tech company slows down its pace of innovation and is overtaken by its opponents, even a century-old company may fall overnight... Of course, Xinghai Technology has no such worries.

Another is the "high house price problem".

High housing prices are simply the "killer" of high-tech companies. Real estate, a low-tech industry, will actually beat high-tech.

There is even a law "high technology leads to high housing prices".

In places where high-tech industries are developed, housing prices are all surprisingly expensive.

For example, in Silicon Valley in country M, Shenzhen, Shanghai, Imperial Capital in country Z, etc., the housing prices are unbearable.

High housing prices are not the fault of high-tech companies! It's just smart real estate developers and investors who want high-tech companies to pay the bill and just want to kill those big players.

Obviously, Xinghai Technology is a "big player" in the eyes of real estate developers and investors.

Thinking about how profitable Xinghai Technology is, the wages of Xinghai employees are so high, and the housing price of 100,000 yuan per square meter is absolutely affordable, so there is no need to worry about no one taking over.

The huge profits that Xinghai Science and Technology has earned steadily are about to be reaped by those greedy speculators.

Therefore, in the past two years, the housing price in Shanghai has doubled, and the rent has increased by 50%. Indeed, a large part of the reason is Xinghai Technology.

This annoyed Chen Jin very much. He had moved away from the idea of ​​learning from Huayao Company and moving several R\u0026D centers out of Shanghai, and let the speculators play by themselves.

Xinghai Technology worked hard to earn some money, but the speculators raised the house price by two percentage points and took it away. Who can bear it?

The question is where can Xinghai Technology move?

According to the law of "high technology leads to high housing prices", when Xinghai Technology moves there, speculators will follow there, and the housing prices in that place will skyrocket, and then continue to move. After a few years, who can bear it?

So another sentence came out, "I don't want to engage in real estate high-tech, not good high-tech"-the best solution is to draw from the bottom of the pot, personally end, and do real estate myself, so as not to give speculators the possibility of taking advantage of loopholes.

It's just that the land in Shanghai is too expensive, and one mu of land costs hundreds of millions. With the size of Xinghai Technology, at least a few thousand mu is enough... Buying land requires an unimaginably huge amount of money.

Chen Jin couldn't afford so much money, and it wasn't worth it!

"What if you want to buy desert land in the arid Northwest? The land price over there is basically a free price, so it doesn't cost much, right?"

"Even if you buy 100,000 square kilometers, the money you spend may not necessarily be more than buying 100 acres in Shanghai."

“Great value for money!”

Of course, the development cost of desert land must be ten times or more than a hundred times that of ordinary land, and the later development investment will be very high, especially for water. The cost of pumping and transporting water alone is unbearably high.

Fortunately, the era of unlimited energy is coming soon. At that time, the cost of electricity per kilowatt-hour may be as low as 10 cents or less. The power resources in the Northwest are also abundant, and the energy is sufficient. By then, these cheap energy sources will be used to solve the water supply problem. The comprehensive cost is still within the affordable range!

Buying a large amount of land in the northwest desert has great potential!

...

three days later.

Ling Jundong called:

"Mr. Chen, Minister Shen, agreed to our request to purchase land and approved 50,000 square kilometers of desert land to Xinghai Technology."

"50,000 square kilometers?"

Chen Jin was slightly stunned, but then he was overjoyed: "Okay, this is okay!"

"But there are a few embarrassing conditions." Ling Jundong said.
