The cost that Gu Biao told Caroline is, of course, undoubtedly nonsense.

How could a person like Gu Biao tell the truth to those real estate dogs.

He said that the reclamation cost of nearly 1.2 billion pounds per square kilometer with the old technology would only be more than 900 million after using the new technology, which can save about 20%, which is only the maximum value he falsified after exaggerating the difficulties of amortization of research and development under various clever names.

At the same time, it can also give enough face on the surface: Brother used new technology, it is not that he did not save you money, but he really saved 20%, which will be converted into a part of the net profit in the future, and your Monegasque royal family can also charge more taxes and part of the commission from it, be content.

In fact, Gu Biao has strictly reviewed the reclamation technology of the new blowing and filling vessels developed by the charter ship Wang, and after removing the amortization of the initial research and development expenses, the construction cost per unit volume can now be reduced to six or seven billion pounds per square kilometer.

In the future, if you upgrade it again and tap the potential, it may be reduced to five or six billion.

But that was at least in the mid-90s. Because technology upgrading is not a closed-door building, it requires continuous engineering experience.

For example, the reason why domestic high-speed rail technology has advanced rapidly in later generations is not only because of the research and development in the laboratory, but also because there are many engineering application scenarios, feedback and verification. There are some things that cannot be made up by researchers behind closed doors.

If the shipbuilding industry elites on the side of the charter ship king want to further upgrade, they must wait for the construction of the international airport reclaimed in Xiangjiang and the water test project in Monaco to be completed, so they can summarize enough improvement feedback data, so the upgrade cycle of four or five years must be necessary.

However, from another point of view, if other countries in the world that have the need for land reclamation projects do not follow up and try out new technologies for the time being, then as long as Gu Biao's confidentiality work is done well in the future, he can also form a generation barrier to others.

Just like after accumulating a lot of experience in high-speed rail technology and engineering, foreigners will find that it is better to buy things from China and Japan directly after groping and stepping on the pit for a few years from scratch. [I said that the high-speed rail technology of my later generations has always been very competitive, and this point cannot be blindly arrogant]

Of course, it is not without harm that Gu Biao can reduce 1.2 billion pounds per square kilometer to six or seven billion.

The first is the new construction plan, which will cause more damage to the ecological environment of the submarine coral reefs. It's just that it is the ecology of the French that is temporarily destroyed, or the French themselves allow them to destroy it, so you are welcome.

Secondly, it is the R&D cost in the early stage, that piece, Gu Biao and the charter ship king, the two sides added up in the early stage, and the cumulative cost of hundreds of millions of dollars, including the construction cost of the first ship, as well as the cost of demonstration design and research and development.

If this algorithm is thoroughly understood by the Monegasque people, it will definitely condemn Gu Biao, and the account must not be calculated like this, according to Gu Biao's words, it is equivalent to the research and development cost of this technology to be borne by the first-time user.

But they can't understand it, they don't understand engineering and technology research, and there are no similar cases to compare with, so there's no way.

……

In the case of not understanding the technical accounts, Caroline can temporarily grasp the other gaps that are to dig out Gu Biao's motivation and what is the expected gross profit margin of Gu Biao when Gu Biao does this project.

If Gu Biao said that the gross profit margin is only forty percent, then needless to say it must be a lie, so the business with a low gross profit margin, Gu Biao will not allocate resources to do this project at this juncture, and the cumulative amount of money involved in this project will be more than 600 million pounds in 5 years, and the budget for reclamation and later development is about half open. The evil king's sole favorite: the world of poisonous concubines

And Gu Biao's current financial pressure on hand is very tight, since the purchase of Wang An's computer in the past six months, his cash flow has not exceeded 200 million US dollars.

Even if the engineering development project can have less of its own funds, for example, 30% of the funds will start construction, and the subsequent 70% will rely on the mortgage of semi-finished products to the bank one after another, then Gu Aohua's own funds will definitely not be less than 200 million US dollars.

Because the traditional commercial banks in the 80s were still relatively conservative in terms of the leverage ratio of real estate project lending, they were willing to give you 30% of their own and the remaining 70% relied on loans for development, which was already very face-saving.

The size of the bank's courage has a lot to do with the trend of rising property prices in this era, and the bank is sure that no matter how the house is built, it is impossible to be a receiver, and it is very fat when it is lending.

For Gu Biao, the only advantage is that the money does not have to be taken out all at once, but in two or three years, before the reclamation is completed, it will be taken out in batches, so Gu Biao can be given a certain amount of time to turnover.

But what can make Gu Biao make such a big bet must be that the gross profit margin is far greater than 30%, and this problem cannot be explained, and it is impossible for the Monegasque to believe him.

Fortunately, Gu Biao has been prepared for this problem for a long time.

……

"I think that in 5 years, the property price of Monaco's top villas and mansions will definitely be more than 6,000 pounds per square meter, 7,000, or even 8,000, and it is possible that I am betting on this benefit, so even if the construction cost is more than 2,500 pounds per square meter, or even close to 3,000 pounds, I will do this project, I think this is very profitable, at least more than double the profit. ”

In the face of Caroline's questioning, Gu Biao's eyes were extremely sincere.

He also excused himself from the situation and said this with a solemn gesture of leaking the news of great value.

When Caroline heard this, her eyes turned slightly white, and she said to herself, "You are so."

The royal family's real estate appraisal consulting experts have analyzed various real estate price fluctuations with her and her mother, but they did not dare to predict the increase so boldly.

You are a foreigner, and you dare to bet on the property price of the tax haven of the rich in Europe?

But Caroline won't say it to her face, she still has to put on a posture of humble learning: "Then, what about the reason?"

Gu Biao cleared his throat and said solemnly: "The reason is that I bet that in the next few years, the security situation in Europe will improve significantly, and the attractiveness of tax havens in Western Europe will be significantly higher than that of tax havens in the Americas."

In other words, the current property holding value of Western European tax haven countries is underestimated by the previous general situation, and is in a value depression, and there is still a lot of room for returning to rationality in the future.

As for your royal property valuation experts, they are nothing more than analyzing problems from traditional market factors, but they don't understand the most important international relations. In contrast, I was born at the Foreign Affairs University in China, and I was a close disciple of Professor Ji in Georgetown, and there are no experts on the earth who are inferior to me in this area. ”

He didn't mention the price increase, only said "return to rationality", it sounds like the current 4,000 pounds a square villa is the price of cabbage, and it is in urgent need of "escape from panic and return to normal prices".

At the same time, he positioned the important factor that will determine the future price of luxury properties in Monaco as the international security situation, which is enough to silence the so-called experts around Caroline. Ace Leaderboard

Do you know about international relations? Do any of you here be up to the level of a disciple of Professor Kei? If not, don't speak.

Caroline was really suppressed in her aura, so she could only adjust her mentality and ask patiently: "Then why do you have to make a direct judgment that the security situation in Western Europe will improve greatly in the future?"

"This is all evidenced by the INF Treaty led by His Excellency Scholz four months ago, and even if you don't know the details, you should have at least heard of the subject. In the end, it was signed by Gojo and President Regen. ”

Caroline: "I've heard that it's a good thing to do for world peace. ”

Gu Biao waved his hand: "This is not something that can be summed up by a rough concept like 'world peace'. On the issue of the INF Treaty, His Excellency Schultz and his mentor Professor Ji are actually in the same vein, after all, when my mentor was Secretary of State, His Excellency Schultz was the Minister of Finance, and they were colleagues in the same cabinet.

The INF Treaty focuses on allowing the United States and Lucia to equally destroy ballistic missiles with a range of 2,500~4,000 kilometers, which is actually no harm to the Americans.

Because the Americans are separated by oceans, let alone the Pacific Ocean, only intercontinental missiles can fly through, even the narrowest Atlantic, which is far more than 4,000 kilometers.

Therefore, even if the Americans do not sign this treaty and continue to keep a few hundred more medium-range missiles, it will be nothing more than an attack on Canada, Mexico, and Central American countries. And as we all know, Canada has always been an ally of the United States, Mexico has nothing to jump on, and Cuba is only more than 100 kilometers away from the United States, so there is no need for medium-range ballistic missiles at all. All possibilities are counted, the farthest U.S. medium-range missile can hit Venezuela......"

"The U.S. has a good relationship with Venezuela as well!" Caroline interrupted, as a member of the royal family who still has basic knowledge about international relations.

"Oh, I'm just saying it's smooth, I'm not imagining where the United States can hit the farthest with medium-range missiles, I didn't say that the United States thinks Venezuela is an imaginary enemy, anyway, medium-range missiles can't hit Brazil. ”

Gu Biao casually rounded the words back, he said so smoothly just now, he was completely led away by the impression of later generations. In fact, the United States and Venezuela are still on good terms at present, and they will not be on the same until the late 90s.

After a pause, he continued to analyze: "What was not important just now, now let's look at the Lucian side." For the Lucian people, a medium-range missile with a range of 2500~4000 km is very large. Because Lucia is a continental country, the surrounding imaginary enemies are all directly bordered, not across the ocean.

A nuclear bomb with a range of 2,500 kilometers is enough to kill the whole of Europe except Spain/Portugal, and a nuclear bomb with a range of 4,000 kilometers cannot even run away from Spain/Portugal, and at the same time it can cover the whole of China in the Far East.

Therefore, the fact that the Americans signed with the Lucia is actually a bit of a loss, which is equivalent to the Lucia giving up a hostage threat opportunity that 'even if they can't kill the United States, they can drag Europe and China as backs'. The Americans, on the other hand, succeeded in greatly gaining a wave of international prestige, putting on a righteous posture of 'you Lucians should not bully the weak, if you want to do it with Lao Tzu, if you want to go directly to the intercontinental missile'.

Such a treaty, His Excellency Gowooder pinched his nose and signed it, and we can fully see that he is a weak and compromising man. Therefore, when most people in the world have seen through the essence of Mr. Gowoodhusband, people with a keen sense of smell will greatly raise their expectations of the safety of buying a home in Western Europe, believing that the risk of Western Europe being destroyed by a world war will be reduced many times over.

If everyone sees through this, Monaco, as a tax haven in Western Europe, is still worried that property prices will not skyrocket? As a prescient development investor, of course, he would dare to make this bet one step ahead of others. ”
