Interstellar Industrial Age

In a conference room at the headquarters of Shagang Group.

Mr. Shan, our space smelting factory will be completed next month, so we can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Xu Aiguo, the financial director of Shagang Group, is also an old man left over from the era of Shan Ying's grandfather. He now feels that the burden on his shoulders is much looser.

Shagang Group invested all its own funds, and it took nearly 2 years to finally build a space smelting factory in space.

In the past two years, as the company's financial officer, Xu Aiguo has really struggled with his brains and worked hard to build a space smelting factory in space. The money spent is unbelievable. billions, tens of billions of dollars into the investment.

Although Shagang Group is one of the parts suppliers of Galaxy Technology Group, it makes money by supplying components to Galaxy Technology Group, but the construction of the space smelting plant still consumes the group's funds.

Even once the capital chain of the group was cut off, Shan Ying had to beg her grandfather and grandma to raise funds. In the end, even all the employees in the company were persuaded by Shan Ying. There are hundreds of thousands of people. , Millions of dollars have been invested in the company, and this has been reluctantly supported until now.

The space smelting factory is about to be completed, and there will be less money to be used next, so the funds will be more abundant, and his finances can be easier.

It's still early. The space smelting factory is under construction, but we don't know where to raise the money to buy asteroids. Any asteroid is worth hundreds of billions of dollars. It's not enough to sell our group. .

Shan Ying smiled and shook his head.

In fact, he is also frowning now. The space smelting factory has been built, and it can be officially started and put into use next month, but the money to buy the asteroid does not know where to come from.

We don't need to buy asteroids, we can completely smelt asteroids for others.

Fang Sixian, who has always been wise, thought about it and said.

Now those who own spaceships and can mine asteroids are very powerful consortiums or simply countries. These people mine asteroids not just to sell asteroids for profit, but they actually value asteroids more. resource.

The space industry is very hot. There are many places where steel is needed. The price of steel has tripled. This is especially true of steel in space.

Now in space,

The only factories that can smelt asteroids are the factories of Galaxy Technology Group. Our space smelting factory will start construction next month, which is the second one.

As for other space smelting plants, they are still under construction, and there are at least several months before they are put into use. This short time is enough for us to make a good profit.

Fang Sixian is really a talent, and all aspects have been investigated very clearly.

As far as I know, Galaxy Technology Group processes and smelts asteroids for people. According to the quality, the fee for 100 million tons of asteroids is about 50 billion. The cost is around 500 yuan.”

The space smelting factory can smelt asteroids very fast. It doesn't take long to smelt an asteroid with a mass of hundreds of millions of tons, and the cost is very low and the efficiency is very high.

But even so, Galaxy Technology Group doesn't seem to have much interest in smelting asteroids for others. They are more directly buying asteroids and then smelting steel for their own use.

Because Galaxy Technology Group is building the second Dragon Nest space factory, the first Dragon Nest space industry is also in full swing. At the same time, more than ten spaceships are being built, and the demand for steel is very strong.

Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard Fang Sixian's words. They were still worried about the money to buy asteroids, but now they don't have to worry about it. They can work as OEMs and help others smelt asteroids and make money.

Of course, these people smelting asteroids only earn a little hard work after all. The most profitable thing is to acquire asteroids. It is more profitable to smelt and sell steel by themselves.

Now countries around the world have a very strong demand for steel in space, and the rising price of steel is enough to illustrate this point. Now some mining groups on the moon have begun to mine iron ore. It used to be unprofitable, but now it is unprofitable. It's the same.

Fang Sixian also broadcasted the data he collected and sorted out while talking.

And I estimate that in the next few years, the demand for steel in space will explode. Galaxy Technology Group is said to be researching a small spaceship.

This kind of small spacecraft is called the Milong-class spacecraft. The Milong-class spacecraft is different from the Qinglong-class spacecraft. Its thrust is much smaller, and it can only drag asteroids with a mass of several million tons.

But its price is also very cheap. When the Miron-class spacecraft comes out, I estimate that there will be a lot of people going to mine asteroids. Once that time comes, our business will be very busy.

Fang Sixian is very optimistic about the future, and he also sees the arrival of a new era in the steel industry.

Looking back, our space smelting plant is still a month away, and we have to start looking for business now.

But I think we can actually not worry at all, because I believe that someone will definitely take the initiative to find us.

Then Fang Sixian made a very confident conclusion.

Are you so sure?

Jiang Tao, the technical director of Shagang Group, said with some disbelief.

Of course, because that's what the situation is.

Our space smelting factory is the second space smelting factory in the whole space, and someone will definitely find us to cooperate.

Fang Sixian said confidently.

As soon as he finished speaking, Shan Ying's secretary came in and said, Mr. Shan, there are Japanese people to visit.

Japanese?

When Shan Ying heard this, her eyes suddenly lit up, she smiled and said, The business is here.

...

In the reception room of the Shagang Group headquarters building, Shan Ying brought Fang Sixian, Xu Aiguo and others to meet the guests from Japan. After some polite greetings, they also entered the main topic.

Mr. Yamashita has come from a long way, there must be something important, right?

Shan Ying looked at Yamashita Lang in front of him. The other party seemed to be quite big, with the title of deputy director of the Japanese Ministry of Space Affairs.

Mr. Shan, that's right. I know that your company's smelting plant in space is about to be completed. I came here this time to entrust your company to help smelt an asteroid. I also ask Mr. Shan to help.

Yamashita Lang said to Shan Ying very respectfully, and his attitude was still very good.

There is no way. The Japanese have not built their own space smelting factory. The asteroids recovered from mining are sold to Galaxy Technology Group. The purchases, come and go, are all made by Galaxy Technology Group.

Shagang Group's smelting plant in space has attracted global attention for a long time, and the Japanese have naturally paid attention to it early, and they even counted the time. When Shagang Group's space smelting plant is completed, their asteroid has just been Mined back.

Everything is calculated carefully, there is really no way, the purchase of the spacecraft of Galaxy Technology Group has almost emptied Japan's foreign exchange reserves, and also owed a lot of debt, and borrowed the foreign exchange reserves of many small countries. I scraped together enough money to buy a spaceship.

Of course there's no problem.

Shan Ying and Fang Sixian looked at each other with joy in their eyes. The original choice was right. The space smelting factory has not yet been built, and the business has already come to the door.

Great. The asteroid we recovered this time contains 110 million tons of iron. I wonder how much smelting fee your company needs to charge?

When Yamashita Lang heard it, his face was immediately full of smiles. He didn't expect it to go smoothly, but he also played a careful trick. He didn't say the mass of the asteroid, but the iron it contained.

Mr. Yamashita, the cost of smelting asteroids is calculated according to the quality of the asteroids. You must have cooperated with Galaxy Technology Group before, right?

When Fang Sixian heard this, he immediately smiled and said.

Yes, yes, the mass of the asteroid we recovered this time is 150 million tons. If your company is willing to help me smelt, I am willing to pay you 50 billion Chinese coins for the smelting fee.

Yamashitaro saw that the people from the Shagang Group were not easy to mess with, so he smiled and said directly.

Mr. Yamashita, I think your Excellency is very insincere. As far as I know, the cost of smelting asteroids in Galaxy Technology Group is 500 yuan per ton. You, a 150 million-ton asteroid, find Galaxy Technology Group. For smelting here, at least 75 billion Chinese coins are needed.

You are now offering us 50 billion yuan, and the price is too far away.

Fang Sixian looked at Yamashita Lang, and he had done enough work ahead of time. He inquired about the price of smelting asteroids from Galaxy Technology Group, otherwise he would suffer a loss.

You can earn tens of billions from smelting an asteroid. Such a good business, I didn’t dare to think about it before. If I didn’t know the market, I guess I would agree to it immediately, and I would lose more than 20 billion all of a sudden.

Mr. Fang, you also know that this is an offer from Galaxy Technology Group. Galaxy Technology Group is Galaxy Technology Group after all. There is still a gap between your company and them. I think the offer of 50 billion is very sincere.

It doesn't cost you anything to smelt asteroids, and the speed is very fast. You can easily earn 50 billion, so why not do it?

After being punctuated by Fang Sixian, Yamashita Lang's expression did not change.

Easily?

Mr. Yamashita is really joking. In order to build this space smelting factory, our group has put all the pressure on it, but it can't be said to be easy.

If it's really easy, you Japanese should be able to smelt asteroids yourself, and you can save tens of billions of smelting costs.

Shan Ying opened her mouth and hit the key point of the Japanese at once.

Mr. Shan, tell me a price.

Yamashita Lang sighed in his heart, very helpless, there is no way, without his own smelting factory, without his own spaceship factory, doing everything in space can't do anything without coming to the Chinese people, like fish on a chopping block, helpless again and again Send it to the knife of the Chinese people and let the Chinese people slaughter.

Ps: The state is so bad recently, I'm going crazy~
