Li Laosan is also a little genius of arithmetic. After listening, he calculated immediately: "I heard from Elbow that to achieve global coverage, there are at least three satellites in the equatorial orbit."
"If one is 10 million, two is 16 million, but three only require 19 million?"
"If you want to be insured, it is best to have five." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "According to this algorithm, producing five is only more than producing three..."
"Two thousand forty-eight thousand, only more than one million more than producing three. It is only hundreds of thousands more than making two alone."
"Don't forget that we still have our own needs." Zhang Weichao said, "We have at least three tasks."
"We have at least three tasks."
"
"Of course, the cost is not reduced by 20% without limit." Li Weigang raised his hand and smiled, "The price of a single star cannot be 10 million. Do you know how much the price of Aoxing is?"
"It seems to be 60 million US dollars?" Zhou Zhi thought for a moment. It seemed that one Aoxing was 60 million US dollars, and then China collected a launch fee of 60 million US dollars, totaling 120 million US dollars. "The superior said this is a special need of Hong Kong Island. As a gift for the return of Hong Kong Island next year, you can consider it special." Li Weigang finally gave the final answer: "But the quantity cannot be less than our tasks. Of course, the prices of star-making and launch can be cheaper."
"Can we really make it for us? How much is it cheaper?" Li Lao San was very surprised. "The cost of a single star is 60 million. If it is made in batches of multiple stars and three are built together, the total price is 120 million."
"It's equivalent to buying two and getting one free..." Li Laosan touched his chin and thought.
"If you have five, it will be about 170 million." Zhang Weichao quoted a price. "What about the launch cost?" Zhou Zhi asked.
"The cost of international conventional launch will be based on the orbital height and load weight. The weight of our new satellite is not as heavy as that of the Australian Star. We can shoot two stars in one shot, and the cost is still 60 million at a time."
"Four stars are 120 million, and there is one... everyone is sharing it equally?" Zhou Zhi asked, "A total of 15,000?"
"If you want five stars and agree to pay in US dollars, the specific price can be negotiated."
"There are a lot of dollars..." Li Laosan was thinking about how much US dollars AXA still has to call. "Of course, if we agree to pay in US dollars, our exchange rate must be based on the exchange rate of the domestic People's Bank of China, and we cannot refer to the exchange rate of the international market."
"What does it mean?" Li Laosan was still in the US dollar position in his mind, and he didn't expect that there would be any exchange rate conversion here. "Now the domestic exchange rate of the RMB and the US dollar is almost 7 to 1, and the international market is 8 to 1. We can't suffer too much." Li Weigang was a little embarrassed.
"What...what?" Li Laosan and Zhou Zhi looked at each other, and both of them saw the ecstasy in each other's eyes.
"Five stars are 170 million, plus three times, forget it, just launch two and a half times, the cost is 150 million, which is 320 million." Zhang Weichao said, "If it is converted into US dollars according to the domestic price, it is about 45 million."
Li Weigang added, "But the contract price we claimed to the outside world is still based on the Hughes Company. We both need to sign a confidentiality agreement with each other."
"Cough cough..." Li Lao San's heart was filled with joy, but his face had already adjusted: "We need to go back and discuss this..." "Ah, right." Li Lao San said here, and asked another question: "If we can recruit more launch services for the country, can this price be lowered?"
It was Li Weigang and Zhang Weichao's turn to look at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes: "There are... more businesses?"
"That's right." Li Laosan said: "Our AXI Fund's global business has very high requirements for the real-time and data capacity of data transmission. Because of the concerns about extreme situations such as information interruption and information congestion, he had the idea of using his own satellite to conduct global communication."
"So this is not the demand of Changjiang Telecom?" Li Weigang was very surprised: "It's your own business needs?"
"Yes." Li Laosan nodded: "But because I We lack experience in this area, so we thought of a solution. We invested in purchasing your satellites and launch services, and then entrusted my brother's Changjiang Telecom to be responsible for the operation, and we just use it."
"Your brother and others agree?" Li Weigang couldn't see through Li Laosan's strength, but he thought it was not impossible. After all, AXA Fund's satellite communications business must be relatively single, and the operation work will not be too complicated. After the fund bears the launch cost, the operation actually cannot cost much money. Changjiang Telecom is also a big company. When wireless communications are in full swing on Hong Kong Island, it may not be possible to look at this operating income. Why would he agree?
"Of course it is also of great benefit to Changjiang Telecom." Zhou Zhi said: "In this way, they will have a very thorough understanding of the performance of Red Three B. If Red Three B can meet their needs, be useful enough, and be acceptable in price..."
"Then I think my brother and the others are willing to choose the satellites and systems they are familiar with to serve themselves." Li Laosan said seriously.
"This is something we didn't expect in advance." Now Li Weigang was heartbroken: "We need to ask our superiors for instructions before we will reply to you."
If this matter really works, Changjiang Telecom's satellite business will inevitably be stamped with a "Chinese" mark, and this mark will most likely be memorized. This is also the conventional development of the military industry today.
No mistakes, one poem, one post, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one read!
For example, if a country first imported Su-type equipment, even if it deviates from imports and achieves complete independent research and development in the future, its own system will be a strong "Su-style", and even defects and weaknesses will be inherited the same. If it wants to adjust it, it will be a very painful transformation.
The same is true for countries that use American and German equipment.
In other words, if Changjiang Telecom boards this ship, it will not be easy to continue.
Hong Kong Island is a free port with huge ship throughput. There are no base stations at sea, and communication can only rely on satellites.
Yangtze River Telecom's satellite communications service is here, and ship communications are all over the world.
Although Li Weigang said he wanted to ask for instructions, the hand under the table had quietly clenched into a fist, and he decided to win the order.
Help Hughes launch Aussie, sign a contract and then draw a picture to produce it, and work hard to develop a long two bundle. Only three launches can the country earn tens of millions of dollars in foreign exchange.
Building more than a dozen satellites of the same style like now, and continuing to use the original business rockets to continue launching, it is almost like picking up money for nothing!
And Li Laosan agreed to use the foreign exchange dollar that the country urgently needs to settle!
The profits of military industry are quite terrible. Li Laosan's investment alone is enough to fill the production and launch costs of the country's own satellites. The above-mentioned explanation is that the base must communicate with it well and strive to win it. This is the fundamental reason.
The country used the money from Li Laosan and Zhou Zhi to make two sets, one for them to use and the other for themselves.
Now Li Laosan actually said that someone might want one! (This chapter ends)
