Chapter 0507 is irretrievable

Don't look at the fact that China's military spending has risen year after year, and after it is announced every year, it will cause considerable heated discussions in the international community, but in fact, China's military spending has only exceeded $150 billion in recent years, which is more than $580 billion a year compared with the Americans, but it is more than a star and a half behind.

It is impossible to distribute the more than $100 billion to the navy, land, and air force, and one third of the air force. Even if it is calculated according to one-third, it is only about 50 billion US dollars, and if this money is calculated according to the price of 3 billion US dollars for Gu Yu's cargo spaceship, it is only enough to buy a dozen ships.

After all, the military, especially the Air Force, lacks a lot of things, and it is impossible to use them all to solve the problem of insufficient transportation capacity; in other words, the Air Force can use one or two billion dollars of military spending every year to buy transport planes or cargo spaceships, and that is a very good thing. And this money is not enough to buy a cargo spaceship for Gu Yu. This is something that the military cannot accept in any way.

The military began to put out the carriage and horses to negotiate with Gu Yu. Gu Yu also saw the difficulties of the military, retreated again and again, and finally retreated to the price of 2.5 billion US dollars, and after that, he refused to give in again, this is already Gu Yu's bottom line, and it is impossible to make concessions. If he gives in again, it is no longer a question of whether he will make money or not, but a question of what kind of value the technology contained in his cargo spaceship is? The low price he offers is tantamount to telling the military that he holds the secret of building a cargo spaceship at a low cost, and in this way, he is incurring trouble for himself, and he cannot but take precautions.

$2.5 billion is a big step back compared to $3 billion, but for the military, it is still expensive to death. Of course, if we look at it from another angle, comparing the Hercules transport plane of the Mi people and the domestically produced Y-20 transport plane, a cargo spacecraft capable of carrying five or six hundred tons of cargo sells for two and five billion US dollars, and the cost performance is still very high, but the problem is that this absolute value is a bit high, and the military is too reluctant to bear it.

Gu Yu brought up the old matter again and suggested that the military should still focus on leasing, and the rent he offered was really not expensive, and the annual rent of a cargo spacecraft was only 80 million US dollars. Two and a half billion dollars is enough to lease a cargo spacecraft for more than 30 years, and the daily maintenance or something, as long as it is not caused by the lessor, is his responsibility.

The military representative in charge of the negotiations reported the situation of the negotiations and Gu Yu's suggestion, and it didn't take long for a reply to be received. The military bigwigs did not agree to lease the cargo spaceship, but still hoped to buy it. They proposed a new plan to Gu Yu, hoping that Gu Yu could consider it carefully.

There are two main plans, one is to expand the area and service life of Guyu No. 2 Pharmaceutical Factory in the desert enclosure in the great northwest. Specifically, the lease area will be expanded to three times, the lease term will be changed from 50 years to 99 years, and the rent will be halved compared with the original. The second is to build a water pipeline from the river estuary in the coastal area to the water area of the second pharmacy factory directly from the river in the coastal area, and ensure that sufficient fresh water is provided every year, and this fresh water can be purchased at half the cost price during the lease period.

After this plan was submitted to Gu Yu, Gu Yu thought about it for several days, and then he put forward his plan on the basis of this plan. He was only willing to accept the first of the military's proposals, and he did not accept the second. He is willing to provide the military with 100 cargo spaceships at a price of one billion dollars each on the basis of the military's satisfaction of the first article, and if the military can accept this plan, then they will sign an agreement, and if they can't accept it, he can only say sorry.

Speaking of which, this person's plan, Gu Yu still suffered a lot of losses. For a cargo spaceship, he once again reduced the price by $1.5 billion, even if the pre-sale price was $2.5 billion, he made a full $150 billion less, which was converted into nearly a trillion dollars in Huaxia currency. And what he got was only some desert land than the original one, and the lease period and rent were adjusted accordingly, and these gains were not enough to make up for his losses. He was reluctant to accept the second clause of the plan, because he was still counting on the cargo ships flying around in the sky to help him collect reputation, and if the state built the water pipeline instead, what reputation would he earn?

The military also saw Gu Yu's determination, and after discussion, they decided to accept Gu Yu's conditions, but they put forward a condition, that is, they hoped that Gu Yu could pay on credit, or that they were allowed to pay in installments, of course, in terms of interest, they still hoped that Gu Yu could be more preferential, not too high.

Since Gu Yu decided to sell the cargo spacecraft to the military at a low price, fortunately he was more generous, and finally set the annual interest rate of the installment payment to only three percent, and only the military needed to pay him 10 billion US dollars in the first year, and the rest of the payment had to be paid off within the next ten years.

After this agreement was signed, Gu Yu and the military were relatively satisfied, although Gu Yu may have some economic losses, but it must also be viewed from that perspective. Although the land in the Northwest Desert is not worth much now, once there is enough fresh water, it is not impossible to become an environment like a water town in the south of the Yangtze River.

Of course, it is impossible for the military to be dissatisfied; with the 100 cargo spacecraft provided by Gu Yu, the problem of insufficient air transport capacity of the military has been fundamentally solved at once, and it is not an exaggeration to say that in the future, whenever there is a little trouble, the military can deploy enough troops to places where the whole country needs them, so as to seize the opportunity and even deploy them to all corners of the world, which has also become a reality, and this is a very crucial and solid step for the army to move from a local contingent to a global army.

This news was not kept secret, on the day the contract was signed, several national media in Huaxia issued a brief message on this matter, the number of words was not much, but it caused a huge sensation all over the world, causing a lot of discussions, and Gu Yu's reputation value also rose by more than a billion, which was enough for him to exchange for hundreds of miniature anti-gravity engines.

Gu Yu issued an order to let Gu Chao fly to modify the cargo spacecraft according to the needs of the military, after all, the cargo spacecraft used to be mainly used to transport fresh water, and the military used the cargo spacecraft, the use is much more complicated, and targeted modifications must be carried out. Of course, after the modification, when the cargo spacecraft is transported, it will not be to transport fresh water, which does not have much strategic value, but to transport soldiers, weapons and equipment and other factors urgently needed by the military, and their appearance will profoundly change the combat mode of the Chinese army.

Gu Yu and the military signed an agreement, so that the mood of the senior management of the Huaxia Railway Corporation went up and down, Gu Yu got dozens of hundreds of freight spaceships to transport fresh water, so that they fantasized about building a special water transport line to make a lot of money The idea of making a fortune was completely frustrated, they originally thought that they had no chance, who knew that later things turned around again, the military sent people to put pressure, hoping that they could provide fresh water to the second pharmaceutical factory at a price lower than the market price, the pressure of the military was not small, but it was not without taking care of the interests of the Huaxia Railway Corporation, if they could agree to the military's conditions, although they had no way to make a lot of money, but it can still be done by making less money, and this thing is better than a long stream, and it is not a small business after accumulation.

Huaxia Railway Corporation has already considered agreeing, but I didn't expect the military to suddenly withdraw people, and they were about to say that the good things were yellow again, which made the directors of Huaxia Railway Corporation a little desperate, it was once such a big business, and they were forced to stir up the yellow, and now the conditions are falling again and again, but still have nothing to do, to say that the directors do not regret it, it is impossible.

Now that they have received news that Gu Yu is going to sell a full 100 cargo spaceships to the military, in this case, won't it mean that Gu Yu will not have all the cargo spaceships he owns?

Just when the Huaxia Railway Corporation was looking forward to Gu Yu sending someone to negotiate with them again, and they were all planning to accept Gu Yu's conditions at a price lower than the market price, Gu Yu had no intention of sending someone over at all. The directors of Huaxia Railway Corporation met again and again, discussing a question, whether to wait, or they sent someone to take the initiative to contact Gu Chao Technology, such a big business in front, according to common sense, it should be their side to take the initiative, but they are a monopoly on their side, except for them, no other enterprise has this ability, which gives them the advantage of taking the initiative, and from the perspective of negotiation, the active party always has to suffer some, such a big business, suffer a little bit, in the end, it will be a very considerable amount。

Just when the directors of the Huaxia Railway Corporation were arguing and could not come to a conclusion, and no one was sent out from beginning to end, a cargo spaceship once again crossed the ocean, from Pakistan | |The western kingdom flew over, and they reappeared at the mouth of the Yangtze River, and once again in full view, they drew fresh water, and then transported them to the second pharmacy factory.

This scene completely stunned the entire Huaxia Railway Corporation, didn't Gu Yu sell all the cargo spaceships to the military? Why are there new cargo spaceships? This ...... How can this be played? It's just not going to give them a chance.

The cargo spacecraft began to draw water again, and the relevant departments of the state were very angry, and the second pharmaceutical factory pushed him out of the door in such a big way, which made the leaders of the SASAC have deep doubts about the ability of the existing leadership of the Huaxia Railway Corporation, so the SASAC ordered that the chairman and general manager of the Huaxia Railway Corporation and other management personnel be dismissed, or transferred, or investigated their economic situation.

The first thing the newly appointed leadership of the Huaxia Railway Corporation did after taking office was to visit Gu Yu together, and they also brought in several people as lobbyists, all of whom were acquaintances of Gu Yu, Hu Weiqing, minister of science and technology, Wang Limin, vice minister of foreign affairs, and a leader of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission. In addition to apologizing to Gu Yu, the Huaxia Railway Corporation also told Gu Yu that if they Gu Yu are in need, the Huaxia Railway Corporation is willing to pay their own money to open a fork in the existing railway line to open a special line for transporting fresh water for the Second Pharmaceutical Factory, and they guarantee that no less than 10,000 tons of fresh water can be transported to the Second Pharmaceutical Factory through this special water transportation line every day, and if Gu Yu feels that it is not enough, it can also be increased.

Gu Yu shook his head secretly, at the beginning, in order to win the support of the Huaxia Railway Corporation, he proposed to build a fork railway, and Gu Yu gave all the funds to the Huaxia Railway Corporation, and after the railway was repaired, all the ownership was given to the Huaxia Railway Corporation, and then he was afraid that the Huaxia Railway Corporation would have scruples, and he proposed to advance a large amount of funds to the Huaxia Railway Corporation as the cost of transporting fresh water. It is not an exaggeration to say that the conditions given by Gu Yu are quite generous, which fully reflects his sincerity, but he has never received a kind response from Huaxia Railway Corporation.

Now that the new leadership of the Huaxia Railway Corporation has taken office, it is too late to come and show favor to him again. If Gu Yu hadn't discovered the secret that transporting fresh water with a cargo spaceship would allow him to earn a lot of prestige, it would have been fine, but since he had found out, it would be impossible for him to give up this way to gain prestige, after all, for him, prestige is fundamental.

In front of Hu Weiqing and Wang Limin, Gu Yu declined the kindness of Huaxia Railway Corporation. He felt that it was quite reluctant to occupy the precious transportation capacity of the Huaxia Railway Corporation, and it was better to be self-reliant.

Huaxia Railway Corporation made a lot of expressions to Gu Yu, but it was no longer able to save Gu Yu's heart. Huaxia Railway Corporation can only sigh and admit that it is unlucky.

Hu Weiqing, Wang Limin and others came over, not only to be lobbyists for the Huaxia Railway Corporation, they also had a very important thing to remind Gu Yu, that is, Gu Yu used a cargo spaceship to transport fresh water to the Second Pharmaceutical Factory, they couldn't say anything, but if Gu Yu continued to use the cargo spaceship to transport other goods, thus impacting the Huaxia Railway Corporation, they needed to remind Gu Yu to make an idea. Huaxia Railway Corporation has reached the point where it cannot be defeated, if it is because of Gu Yu that Huaxia Railway Corporation collapses, then this burden on the government will be a very heavy thing, and when the time comes, Gu Yu, as the initiator, will not want to fall into anything.
