Interstellar Energy Tycoon

Chapter 148 Space City, Space Factory

Earn money.

The space energy facilities of Xingyuan Group have finally started to make a lot of money.

Although it only sells 1 yuan per kilowatt-hour.

Although the ore currently mined from the moon and transported to the blue star is only 100,000 tons per day.

But it is calculated based on the power consumption of 500 degrees per ton of monthly mine.

Xingyuan Group can earn as much as 50 million yuan a day-although it is still far from the income brought by superconducting materials and super photovoltaic panels, it is still very impressive.

The Aerospace Industry Corporation is developing a small interstellar transport ship "Hercules" with a load capacity of 2,000 tons and can accommodate ten space containers. Its space transportation capacity is ten times that of the "Julong" space plane Lifting, but when in use, more than two beams of light are needed to supply energy, and the effective power must not be less than 500,000 KW, but it can greatly improve the efficiency of transportation.

If all the round-trip transportation missions are carried out in the later stage, if all of them are replaced by "Hercules", the lunar minerals mined from the moon and transported to the blue star every day can increase to more than 1 million tons.

The electricity sales income of Xingyuan Group will also increase to more than 500 million yuan per day.

This is not just described by the word "substantial", but an important part of Star Source Group's revenue, and even the main source of revenue.

At that time, it can be officially announced that Xingyuan Group is indeed an energy company, and it deserves its name, and it is not trying to sell dog meat.

In addition, with the increasing amount of monthly mining.

The demand for energy is also greater.

At present, the number of space photovoltaic arrays built by Xingyuan Group has just reached three, with a total power generation of 3 million KW.

"By the end of this year, the number of photovoltaic arrays must increase to five, and the total power generation must reach 5 million KW. Now those domestic photovoltaic giants have begun to produce super photovoltaic substrates in large quantities, and the capacity bottleneck in this regard has disappeared. , the photovoltaic array can enter a period of rapid construction."

"The output of energy relay satellites and floating relays must also be increased. The number of ten or so relays per month can't meet the demand at all. It must be increased to more than 30. In addition, considering the high concurrent usage scenarios For energy relay satellites, it is necessary to increase the number of collimated light lenses to become satellites with two, three, four and up to five heads, which can supply energy to multiple devices at the same time, thereby reducing the number of deployments of energy relay satellites."

"In terms of talent recruitment, if the group's employees are still not enough, after the training of this batch of tens of thousands of talents is completed, another batch of more than 10,000 talents will be recruited, so that the total number of employees of Xingyuan Group will exceed the 100,000 mark. However, the relevant supporting work must be done in advance. We need to rent a large number of public rental housing from the government, or sign a long-term rental agreement, and rent from ordinary landlords for at least five years. During this period, the rent cannot be increased. Well, the housing problem for new employees. If this problem can’t be solved well, or the rent has risen too much, then consider moving some factories and employees to surrounding cities with low housing prices. Vote with your feet and warn those who want to use housing prices and rent We people of wool."

At a high-level meeting of the group, Li Xingyang made several instructions.

The executives of various departments nodded and said yes, and made adjustments and work arrangements according to his instructions, and carried them out efficiently.

Hey~

Leaning on the back of the boss's chair, Li Xingyang squinted his eyes and couldn't help frowning. His temples ached slightly. The assistant Xu Rong who was next to him came over and rubbed him to relieve it.

Headache, really a little headache.

Although the current Xingyuan Group has increased its daily electricity sales revenue by tens of millions, it has also gained a lot in the advertising field, and has increased some income, which can be described as thriving.

But the number of employees has increased and the pace of expansion has accelerated.

However, the housing prices in Suhong City have skyrocketed from an average price of less than 20,000 to 50,000 in just over half a year, which is in line with the first-tier cities. This seems to have nothing to do with Xingyuan Group, but it is for Xingyuan Group Yes, I also want Xingyuan Group to take the blame for the rise in housing prices. After all, Xingyuan Group has developed so well and brought so many high-paying jobs. If the housing price does not rise as soon as it rises, how can it prove that the city of Suhong is developed? How to reflect one's own identity, how to make the local people proud and proud of it, and get some glory from it?

The answer can only be rising house prices.

For this behavior, Li Xingyang was disgusted to the extreme, expressed his dissatisfaction many times, and even considered moving the factory away and developing in another city. This had a certain effect. The city government immediately provided Xingyuan Group with more than 30,000 sets. Public rental housing, the rent is very cheap, and several buildings were built immediately. After completion, there will be more than 20,000 public rental housing units, which will also be rented to the employees of Xingyuan Group. The rent is not expensive. Help Xingyuan Group solve the problem Li Xingyang was appeased by the staff's housing problem.

At this point, Li Xingyang shouldn't have any dissatisfaction anymore, the problem has basically been solved, no matter how Su Hong's house price rises, Xingyuan Group will not be greatly affected, why bother to spoil everyone's happiness?

But he still won't accept this kind of result. Why should the famous Star Source Group bear the burden? Those rentiers have taken advantage of all the benefits, and many employees who want to settle in Suhong City have their dreams of settling directly shattered. Wan's out-of-town migrant workers suffered from rising rents and even had to leave the city.

Is this fair?

Anyway, Li Xingyang would never accept it!

What to do? Is there a good solution? Is it really only possible to vote with your feet and move factories and employees to cities with lower housing prices?

Shaking my head, this is only a temporary solution, not the root cause. No matter where the factory moves, housing prices will rise accordingly. This is determined by people's greedy nature.

The only fundamental solution is to focus on the vast and boundless space and build a space city. In the future, most of the employees of Xingyuan Group will live in a space city with an orbit nearly a thousand kilometers above the ground, commuting to and from work every day. It takes less than an hour to commute to and from the space plane, and the space city is like a rotating cylinder, the gravity coefficient is only half of the surface, and employees can relax very well.

In addition, kindergartens, schools, hospitals, supermarkets and other facilities are all available, so even if you live in the space city for a long time, there is no problem.

There is also the cost. In space, to build a space city that can accommodate at least 100,000 people, based on the weight of 100 million tons, the cost of 10,000 yuan per ton means trillions. Is a 50,000-square-meter house in Suhong City cheap? Where is the price/performance ratio?

There's no need for Li Xingyang to spend more money to build a more expensive space city out of dissatisfaction with housing prices, right?

Having said that.

But the role of the space city is not only to have the property of living.

Next to the space city, there are multiple space factories that can process and smelt the ore raw materials transported from the moon, and then transport the smelted steel, rare earth metals, gold, silver and copper to Azure Star, which is even more valuable. Not to mention high, but also to avoid environmental pollution.

Moreover, there are many new materials with high purity and high physical properties, which can only be synthesized in the weightless environment of space.

That is to say, it is very suitable for supporting the space industry, which will bring a large number of high-paying jobs.

It can also develop space medical treatment and recuperation. In the microgravity environment, the burden on the human body will be greatly reduced, which is very conducive to the improvement of the disease, improve the cure rate of the disease, and significantly prolong the life span of human beings.

And the development of space tourism and tourism.

With so many promising projects, even though space cities are expensive to build, they are still profitable and have huge potential.

The most important thing is that Li Xingyang does not intend to bear such a large investment alone, and he does not even intend to pay a penny. He only needs to provide construction plans and technical support, and the huge capital investment can be borne by the country.

So Li Xingyang took out his mobile phone and called Zhao Changhong of the Aerospace Industry Group. He took some time to explain his thoughts.

"How about Leader Zhao, are you excited? 1 trillion capital investment is not too much, but you can get a space city that can accommodate at least 100,000 people. While creating infrastructure demand and stimulating domestic economic development, you can also develop supporting facilities. Space factories process lunar minerals, reducing environmental pollution and transportation costs. They can also develop space recuperation and space tourism. There is no pressure to earn 100 to 200 billion a year, and they can pay back in five to ten years. Expanding the living space of our Chinese nation is to expand the territory in space. The achievements in the present age will benefit the future. Even if the investment cost is high, it is completely acceptable. If this method is used again, the high housing prices in some cities will be reduced. If it continues, the birth rate is estimated to be saved.”

advantage.

Li Xingyang cited a lot of advantages and tried his best to seduce him.

"Xiao Li, I admit that I am tempted, but I can't make the decision for such a big project. I have to write a detailed plan and report to the higher-ups. If it is fast, it is estimated that I will get instructions from the higher-ups in three to five days." Zhao Changhong said.

"Okay, I'll wait for you for a few days."

Li Xingyang said.

soon.

After just two days.

Zhao Changhong called and said very excitedly: "Xiao Li, the "Space City Plan" project has been successfully approved. The higher authorities have paid unprecedented attention to it, and it has been unanimously approved. Moreover, it is meaningless to build only one space city. The cost cannot be reduced. Just build ten! The first batch will have at least 1 million immigrants! Later, it will increase to 5 million, tens of millions, and go all out into space, turning the boundless and vast space into a new territory of our country, as well as space factories, Space medicine, space tourism, these space industries must all be developed to revitalize the economy in an all-round way, and can no longer remain stagnant!"

"Okay, this is a wise policy, and it is a great thing that benefits the country and the people."

Li Xingyang nodded repeatedly, smiled and gave a thumbs up.

...

The "Space City Plan" was approved successfully.

It indicates that large-scale infrastructure activities will go from the ground to space, officially entering the era of space infrastructure.

It can also be foreseen that when Huaguo, whose infrastructure capabilities are already so powerful, wants to go to space to build infrastructure frantically, no one needs to be suspicious. It is estimated that the results will be seen soon, and they will be presented to everyone. .

However, considering that this project may have a relatively severe impact on domestic housing prices, it has not been announced with much fanfare, only some gossip has flowed out, but most people express their disbelief. possible things.

Li Xingyang can understand such confidentiality considerations. Those who express firm disbelief should not believe it. Anyway, the results will be seen in two years at most. The employees of the Yuan Group, anyway, don’t know how to take orders, and they don’t know how to buy a set. They would rather live in a space city.
