Rebirth 99 to become a car giant.

Good resources are always scarce.

Whether it is a degree housing or something else, it is the same.

The same is true for the lunar research station of Venustech.

Since Venustech released the concept video of the lunar research station, it has attracted much attention from all parties.

Shortly thereafter, Venusstar Technology announced that the lunar research station was recruiting like-minded partners from around the world.

As a result, interested countries naturally took action.

"Zhao, we know that the construction of a lunar research station is very technically difficult and requires a huge investment."

“But your fees are too high.”

"To arrange for an astronaut to enter your space station, it will cost $100 million per person to send him up, and another $100 million to bring him back."

"The key is that after the astronauts arrive at your space station, they will be charged an additional $100 million for each day they stay there."

"To complete some tasks at the lunar research station, you would have to stay there for ten days or half a month at most. That would cost more than a billion dollars, which is really too much."

The European Space Agency acted very quickly this time.

As the director, Werner flew over personally to discuss cooperation plans with Zhao Siyu.

As for whether each country will discuss cooperation with Venusstar Technology individually in the future, that is another matter.

"Werner, if I remember correctly, the construction of the International Space Station cost more than 1000 billion US dollars, and a large amount of money is spent on maintenance every year to ensure its normal use."

"Our lunar research station is many times larger than the International Space Station in terms of both the scale and difficulty of its construction."

"According to current estimates, we will need to invest at least $500 billion to build the lunar research station."

"For such a large investment, according to China's current loan interest rates, the annual interest alone would reach 20 to 30 billion US dollars."

"After the scientific research station is successfully built, the resources we need to maintain its normal operation will be enormous."

"With such a huge investment, it is not certain that it will succeed. If something unexpected happens during the construction process, we will have to start all over again. The investment may directly reach the trillion-dollar mark."

"This is a huge investment that has never been seen in human history. Even if we want to cooperate with everyone at a low price, there is nothing we can do."

Anyway, the financial report of Venusstar Technology is kept confidential, and China has even exempted all taxes and fees for Venusstar Technology for the next ten years.

All financial data of Venusstar Technology is not disclosed to the public, even the tax bureau is not aware of it.

So when Zhao Siyu says how much money was invested in the lunar research station, that is how much money was invested.

If you don’t believe it, then don’t believe it!

If you don't cooperate, there are others who want to cooperate.

This thing will be the only one of its kind in the next ten years, or even the next twenty years.

If you can't even make the profit from your unique business higher, are you mentally ill?

"Although we understand that the construction cost of the lunar research station is very high and the risks are great, it can accommodate at least dozens of people working at the same time. If we follow your charging standards, the annual cost of these personnel alone will reach hundreds of billions of dollars, or even more."

“This data is a bit too exaggerated.”

Werner is certainly not willing to accept the high price so easily.

However, Zhao Siyu would not give in either.

"The account is not calculated in this way. First of all, most of the staff in our research station are engineers from our own company. We cannot charge them, which means that we lose a lot of income in this area."

"And then there's the problem that the research station can't be fully staffed all year round. That's not realistic."

"It's just like a hotel outside. It's impossible for it to be fully booked 365 days a year."

"In this case, if we charge $100 million per person, it's actually not high at all."

"Of course, if you think it's a bit high, I think it's normal."

“In fact, when we calculated the costs internally, I was also shocked.”

"Anyway, it will take some time to build the lunar research station, so you can go back and think about it carefully."

Zhao Siyu directly took a step back to advance.

You think it's expensive, right?

Then why don't you cooperate for now?

Go back and think about it carefully. I don’t know if there will still be a chance for cooperation after you have thought it through.

Werner was naturally aware of this situation.

So I definitely won’t go back directly.

Seeing that there was not much room for negotiation on the price, Werner changed the subject and said, "Isn't it a bit unreasonable to start paying these cooperation funds now?"

"After all, our lunar research station hasn't even started construction yet."

"And the cooperation terms also directly stipulate that the cooperation funds will not be refunded under any circumstances. Isn't this also unreasonable?"

"What if this research station is never built? Wouldn't we be at a huge loss?"

Werner felt that his request was a very normal one, so he spoke in a slightly louder tone.

However, Zhao Siyu did not follow his pace at all and said directly: "It is indeed as you said, this cooperation has certain risks."

"It is precisely because this project is so risky that we have such regulations."

"Again, there's no need to rush into this cooperation. It's okay to go back and think it over before signing."

Zhao Siyu pretended to look quite regretful and took a step back.

But as he stepped back, Werner found his situation even more embarrassing.

"Then... let's go back and think about it again."

Werner is also considered an experienced negotiator.

He also knew that if he continued to give in at this time, he would probably have no say in the future.

This was not the result he wanted.

So even if you want to agree, you will definitely have to struggle.

Zhao Siyu doesn't care about this.

After the meeting with Werner, he had to communicate with several Middle Eastern countries about the cooperation project on the lunar research station in the next week.

The Emirates, which once cooperated on the Chang'e space station and whose astronauts are still in the space station and have not yet returned, is also very enthusiastic this time.

After initially understanding the various requirements and related promotion plans of Venusstar Technology and visiting the production factories of several products of Venusstar Technology, the Crown Prince, as a representative, once again signed a huge cooperation order worth US$200 billion with Venusstar Technology.

In order to show respect for major customers, Zhao Siyu also gave the Emirates some room to maneuver.
