Military Technology

After hearing Wu Hao's remarks, the leaders obviously became agitated one by one. Not to mention anything else, if Wu Hao and the others can really transport helium 3 back from the earth, how much tax will Anxi, as the registered company of Haoyu Aerospace, increase every year.

In addition to taxation, the series of industrial developments brought about by helium 3 will also benefit Anxi and even the province, and they are very considerable.

Finally, of course, it is performance. Each leader can write a big mark on his resume. This achievement is enough to stand out from the crowd.

For a time, everyone fell into endless imagination about the future.

Of course, it was the leaders who woke up very quickly. The leader asked Wu Hao: "The current price of helium-3 is this. I'm afraid the price will shrink significantly when you ship it back to Earth on a large scale."

After hearing the leader's words, the other leaders also nodded. Indeed, the price given by Wu Hao is definitely inaccurate, because anything will shrink when there is more. Three billion US dollars per ton is just the current price. Once the helium-3 is transported back to the earth, it will definitely not be this price. As the saying goes, rare things are more valuable.

In this regard, Wu Hao explained with a smile: "Because of the existence of the atmosphere on the earth, helium-3 resources are very rare on the earth. According to scientists' estimates, the helium-3 resources on the earth are only about twenty tons, and they are very It is difficult to mine, the cost is very high, and it has no mining value.

Therefore, if you want to obtain helium-3, you must obtain it from an alien planet, and the moon is the most ideal place and destination. I have mentioned before that the helium-3 resources on the moon exceed one million tons.

Although the reserves are abundant, it is not easy to mine and obtain these helium-3 resources on the moon. Different from our conventional understanding, helium-3 is not a solid or other crystal or liquid, but a gas.

It is rich in the lunar soil and is the product of 10,000 years of accumulation by the solar wind. The earth's atmosphere blocks a large amount of solar wind, so the earth's helium-3 resources are relatively small.

If you want to obtain these helium-3 resources, you must process the lunar soil, and then separate and collect these helium-3 elements.

The whole process is very time-consuming and labor-intensive, so this will also result in the cost of mining the entire helium-3 resource not being reduced too low. In addition, it has to be transported back to the earth from the moon, and such a long distance will also incur high transportation costs. Therefore, combined with these, the helium-3 resources that can be transported back to the earth are relatively limited, and may not be available for a long time. many.

According to relevant information, if we build a 500-megawatt deuterium-helium 3 nuclear fusion power station, it will only consume 50 kilograms of helium-3 every year.

Calculated based on the current total power generation in our country, only eight tons of helium-3 are needed to produce our current annual power generation. Only one hundred tons of helium-3 are needed to provide the world's electricity needs for a year.

It can be said that helium 3 is an ideal future clean energy source. This is why countries are scrambling to research controllable deuterium and helium 3 nuclear fusion power generation technology, and it is also the reason why helium 3 is so expensive.

Once this technology is used, it will replace existing nuclear power plants, most thermal power plants, and even hydropower plants, becoming the mainstream of current power generation.

Then the demand for helium-3 will be huge. Calculated based on our domestic consumption of ten tons of helium-3 resources every year, this is 30 billion US dollars.

Calculated based on the fact that the world needs to consume 100 tons of helium-3 resources every year, this is 300 billion US dollars. In the future, with the introduction of more stringent emission standards and the depletion and ban of fossil energy, we will have a strong demand for power resources.

Then the helium 3 required will also increase significantly, which will further stimulate the entire helium 3 industry, including price.

Even if the price of helium III mining drops in the future, it will not drop too low due to the increase in demand, and may even increase significantly because of its application.

Therefore, its price will be very strong for a long time, so you don’t have to worry about this. "

After listening to Wu Hao's introduction, everyone present nodded. What Wu Hao said is quite reasonable. With the breakthrough of deuterium and helium 3 nuclear fusion power generation technology in the future, the demand for helium 3 will increase significantly. For a period of time, the helium-3 on the earth cannot meet the demand, so it can only be mined from the moon.

The cost of mining on the moon is very high, so the price will not drop too much. It may even rise further due to the continuous increase in demand and market speculation.

Thinking of this, everyone looked at Wu Hao differently. They say space projects make money, but I didn’t expect it to be so profitable. Although it is still early for this project to make money, once it does, it will be a huge profit.

Let’s not talk about other things, let’s just say that Wu Hao and the others only need to mine and transport ten tons of helium-3 from the moon. Then their previous cost investment can be recovered, and they can even make a lot of money.

More importantly, Haoyu Aerospace is a listed company. Once this project starts to make profits, it is conceivable that the stock price of Haoyu Aerospace will inevitably rise significantly. In this way, Wu Hao and the others can pass Haoyu Aerospace's stocks. Make another big profit.

Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but feel a little moved, wondering if they should buy some before the stock price of Haoyu Aerospace rose too much, and then hold it for a long time.

But when they thought about their identity, everyone couldn't help but shook their heads. It seemed that they could only give others an advantage.

But this was just a thought, and soon everyone woke up and began to examine the great significance of this project to the entire Anxi and even the entire province. Once this project matures, it will bring huge benefits to Anxi and even the province.

In addition, the derivative projects and supporting facilities brought by this project are also very considerable. If it can be launched in Anxi, it will greatly promote the development of Anxi province. This is a good performance.

No matter what, everyone must seize the opportunity and not let this project and related derivative projects and supporting facilities be snatched away by other places.

Thinking of this, the leader looked at Wu Hao differently. He smiled at Wu Hao and asked, "Xiao Wu, has the headquarters of Haoyu Aerospace not yet chosen a location?"

Hearing the leader's words, Wu Hao instantly understood what the leader meant, and then nodded cooperatively: "We are still working in our park and have not moved out yet."

Seeing Wu Hao being so polite, the leader smiled and nodded and said: "It's such a big company, but it's too inconvenient to be crowded in your park. We are accused of serving enterprises. Now it seems that our work in this area is It’s still not done properly.”
