"Oh? Tell me!" Zhang Jingyuan became interested.
People around her also looked at Zhang Weiwei, wanting to see what kind of whims this quiet and strong girl had. In fact, everyone still has deep feelings for this girl. He doesn't have any great skills, but he relies on hard work to manage the internal affairs of the master company in an orderly manner. He can be called the backbone of the company.
"Brother, according to my observation, it is very profitable to open a supermarket now. One-third of the world's output value is now traded through supermarkets. Whether it is an ordinary convenience supermarket or an industrial product supermarket."
"Supermarket? But even if we build a supermarket, the initial investment is very high, and the investment may not necessarily lead to success. Even if we can succeed, it will be a few years later. If we want to solve the current difficulties of Gaoshou Company, it will be too late. Ah!" Zhao Weimin retorted. Of course, in recent times, Zhao Weimin has embarked on the most pursuit of Zhang Weiwei.
"Hmph! I didn't say open a supermarket on the ground. We are now fully capable of opening a supermarket in space!"
"Wow!" Zhang Jingyuan suddenly stood up, completely ignoring the cups rolling on the ground.
Zhang Weiwei’s words were like a bolt of lightning, lighting up the road ahead!
Yes, Gaoshou Company is now fully capable of opening a supermarket in space! If you think about it, you will know how broad the prospects and money possibilities are. First of all, at this point, Gaoshou Company is the leader without any competitors. With an aircraft that can take off directly into space, Gaoshou Company can deliver supplies to space! In today's space competition, the most critical point is talent, especially those who can work in space; but people have to eat, drink and litter. However, the space environment determines that this aspect must be extremely difficult - all water is recycled water, which is really difficult for ordinary people to accept.
In particular, space supplies are all transported by rockets, which are expensive.
Currently, the average international transportation cost of space supplies is US$20,000 per kilogram. However, every launch of a rocket is a dangerous attempt and wastes a lot of resources; moreover, supplies cannot be transported to space at all times. In addition, the consumption of materials in the sky is continuous, which means that they have to be transported into space every once in a while. Over time, it also pays a high price for space technology.
This eventually led to a space base. From use to scrapping, all the costs in the entire process added up to more than 1,000 US dollars per gram. This is also due to current technological advancements.
And this is the opportunity for Gaoshou Company. If it can build a stable base in space and use Gaoshou Company's existing technology, it can really build a space supermarket and use space vehicles to deliver goods to your door. And even if the price above is the same as the price of rocket launches and materials, they will all be robbed - launching a rocket is not just as simple as ignition, but also requires the deployment of a large amount of social resources, occupying factory production, etc. Some hidden costs are difficult to calculate.
And it is because of the environment of space and the current technical reserves of Gaoshou Company that it has given Gaoshou Company an opportunity, a gold nugget in space - there are now tens of thousands of staff of various types in space, and there are invisible reports. It is pointed out that the actual number of staff is more than 20,000, and many countries hide it.
"Weiwei, have you calculated the cost of setting up a base in space and the cost of a space plane?"
"I made a rough estimate. According to our current situation, just calculating the cost of liftoff, the Dream aircraft can carry at least 30 tons of safe and effective materials each time, and the energy consumed back and forth is about 1 million degrees. According to The current electricity price is 2 yuan per kilowatt hour, and the surface cost of 30 tons of materials is 1.2 million yuan in Chinese dollars; in addition to wages, aircraft maintenance costs, etc., the cost is about 2 million. Of course, the cost of the aircraft itself is not included. After all, the aircraft can be used. How many times, still a problem.
And every time, according to the current international average level, calculated at a cost of US$20,000 per kilogram, which is 100,000 Chinese yuan, we can make a profit of nearly 3 billion each time we transport materials. However, when 30 tons of materials are consumed by tens of thousands of people in space, based on the consumption of 1.5 kilograms per person per day, it is only enough for two days.
In addition, we can also undertake the transportation of some scientific research instruments and equipment. I believe that as long as the price is reasonable, it is completely feasible. ”
"Okay, okay, okay, Weiwei didn't expect you to think so far. What a great idea! Weiwei, you are responsible for this project, and if you need help, all of us here can help at any time. I hope that in the future, The space supermarket must become a major business of Gaoshou Company.”
"Don't worry, brother, at least when we go to space in the future, we will have sufficient supplies of materials. Not counting the cost of aircraft, our material transportation level is only less than 70 yuan per kilogram!
In addition, we can also produce multi-person airplanes for short-term space travel and transporting personnel to space stations and bases. This will also be a huge business.
According to the current quotation, some wealthy people even offered 300 million US dollars and 1.5 billion Chinese coins in exchange for a short trip to space, which lasted about one day.
Maybe we can also simply plan in this regard. ”
"Let me add something," Wu Yuliang spoke, "according to what Zhang Weiwei said just now, I also have an idea. We can develop the space mining business. For example, many of the meteorites in space are rich in minerals. In addition to iron, there are many There are a lot of rare metals, some of which are more precious than gold, and we should now be able to transport engineering robots to the corresponding meteorites. We can even drag some smaller meteorites back to the earth directly.
In addition, some countries in the world have begun to mine resources on the moon. Now there is no staking claim. We can definitely mine them. There is abundant nuclear fuel on the moon, which is also a material countless times more precious than gold.
Even further, we can smelt in space and build our own space factory. ”
Zhang Jingyuan nodded, and it turned out that he was brainstorming: "Your idea is good, but the establishment of a space factory will have to wait until the test machine in the ocean takes off. Otherwise, it will be too costly to just rely on airplanes to carry supplies little by little.
However, space supermarkets, tourism, etc. can be launched. We have no technical difficulties at all in this regard. Going one step further, we can even build a space hotel for all astronauts to live in. You know, the living environment in all current space station and space bases is very poor. In some countries, you can even sleep on the aisle. ”
"Haha, not bad, that's what it should be." Li Changxing also happily agreed.
"Our classmate Zhang Weiwei is finally able to take the lead alone." Feng Xuezhi made a rare little joke. "Haha..." Everyone laughed happily. With the funding problem solved, everyone is obviously much more relaxed. Of course, it is inevitable at this stage that loans are still needed.
