Chapter 0781 can only pinch his nose and admit it
In order to occupy the "limited" capacity of Guchao Space, the United States spent a huge price and signed a one-year aerospace aircraft lease contract with the Valley Super Space, requiring that one flight must be leased for the United States every week, and if either party violates it, it will face a huge amount of liquidated damages.
From the signing of the contract to the present, the contract has been performed well, and there is no shortage of aerospace planes on the side of Guchao Space, let alone one flight a week, even if it is one flight a day, there will be no problems. On the contrary, it is a bit difficult on the side of the United States, one is tight in terms of funds, and the other is that the astronauts can't keep up.
Leasing an aerospace plane is not such a simple matter, if it is based on transporting 12 tons of cargo and five astronauts to and fro, the lease cost of one flight is as high as 118.52 billion Chinese dollars. The 20 million Huaxia coins were the depreciation expenses that the people of the United States promised to give in order to sign the contract.
A week, at least four times a month, is 474.8 billion Huaxia coins. With such a huge amount of money, even the United States, which is known for its strong national strength, is a little unbearable.
However, the problem of funds, the people of the United States want to find a way to issue more treasury bonds, which is great, and they can still bear it by printing more money. In contrast, the problem of astronauts is not so easy to solve.
The space plane travels back and forth between the earth and the moon, if the space plane flies at full speed, it will take about two and a half days to fly to the moon, plus braking, fly around the moon, and find a landing site, it will take about half a day, which is three days. At this speed, Gu Chao Space actually does not recommend flying like this, in order to ensure the physical and mental health of astronauts, the time of these three days is usually doubled, that is, six days.
After landing, it will take about two days to unload the cargo on the aerospace plane, complete the stacking, classification, fastening and other work. If the action is slow, the astronauts will not be able to quickly adapt to the rhythm of work and life on the moon, and it will drag on for two or three days, three or five days, which is a very normal thing.
After that, it will take five or six days to return home.
After all, it will take about half a month to make a round trip between the earth and the moon. This time is not impossible to shorten, but the premise of shortening is that the physical fitness of the astronauts is strong enough, and now looking at the world, that is, a few people such as Gu Yu and Ye Rou can meet such conditions, and the others still obediently follow the standard operating procedures.
After the astronauts return to Earth, it does not mean that they will be able to go on the next trip to the moon immediately, but they will have to spend half a month or more in a sanatorium for medical observation and recuperation.
After you are discharged from the hospital, you have to reunite your family for a day or two, right?
Even if everything is ideal, it will take at least a month for astronauts to complete a cycle of round-trip missions to the Earth and the Moon.
If it is calculated that each space plane needs five astronauts, one flight a week, then the people of the United States must prepare at least 20 astronauts.
But in fact, the number of astronauts that the United States needs to prepare is much more than 20, and they have found that in order to fully adapt to the rhythm of one sortie a week, they need to prepare at least 60 astronauts. Although the United States is a traditional aerospace power and the first country in the world to land on the moon, their astronaut team is actually the same as traditional aerospace powers such as Huaxia and Mao Ziguo, and they all maintain a small and refined scale.
The number of active astronauts in the United States is about forty or fifty, which is equivalent to saying that the United States needs to train more than ten astronauts on the basis of the active service, which is a huge expense for the United States.
The problem is that the selection and training of astronauts takes time. And what the people of the United States lack now is time, the contract they signed with Gu Chao Space is there, if they can't fulfill the contract in time, they will lose money.
Now, the United States realizes what a heavy burden it is for them to sign such a contract with Gu Chao Space in order to squeeze out the capacity of Gu Chao Space.
However, they can also find psychological comfort, just like now, Gu Yu has begun to build a lunar base on the moon, and the traditional aerospace powers in the world can't sit still, but compared to the fact that they are now looking for aerospace aircraft to lease, the United States still has a certain advantage.
For the problem of insufficient number of astronauts, the people of the United States have also found a solution, one is to recall some retired astronauts who are relatively not so old and have not significantly degraded their physical fitness to return to the team, and when they go through a short training, they can re-adapt to work and fill the problem of insufficient number of astronauts. The other is to recruit astronauts again and provide fresh blood for the astronaut brigade. The other is to contact Guchao Technology and seek to purchase more high-quality human body strengthening drugs and physical recovery drugs and other medicines, which can not only improve the training efficiency of astronauts, but also allow them to stay in the sanatorium for a shorter time and shorten the cycle.
The United States is taking action, and Huaxia and Mao Ziguo are not far behind. They have recently announced plans to send aerospace planes to the moon to deliver more supplies and build their own lunar bases.
There was no major movement at the Lunar Research Center at first, but it didn't take long for the chairman of the United States, Wren Taylor, to withstand the pressure of the major shareholders and announced that they would also launch their own space plane to the moon and officially start the plan to build a city on the lunar base.
Some other countries or organizations have also been unable to hold back and have announced some similar plans. Seemingly overnight, all of humanity entered the frenzy of lunar development.
For these things, Gu Yu, who is far away on the moon, is like watching fire. He asked Gu Chao Space to fully fulfill the aerospace aircraft lease contract signed with the United States, and Gu Chao Technology has always been a model of performance, which is beyond doubt.
In addition to these things, Gu Yu also knew one thing, that is, the Lunar Research Center had robbed Gu Chao of a lot of business in space during this time.
In the world, there are currently aerospace planes, except for the initiator of Gu Chao Technology, the rest are Huaxia, Mao Ziguo and the Lunar Research Center, and even the United States does not have one. In this, Huaxia and Mao Ziguo have to use them for their own use, and will not provide rental services to the outside world, and the only one who provides this service to the outside world is the Guchao Space and Moon Research Center.
The Lunar Research Center purchased a total of 12 aerospace aircraft from Gu Chao Flight, and in addition to its own use, the rest were all put into the leasing market. The leasing policy they implemented was very simple, in addition to not depreciating expenses, the rent was also 20 million Huaxia Yuan cheaper than the rent of Gu Chaospace.
Such a price is still very attractive, according to rough statistics, now there are more than eighty percent of organizations or countries that are interested in leasing aerospace aircraft, are the first choice of lunar research centers, and the remaining two percent will be the first choice of Gu Chao Space.
The leasing of aerospace aircraft is definitely a very profitable business, as long as an aerospace aircraft can be leased six times, it can earn back all the capital, and there is a lot of profit, and then lease, that is pure profit.
In this market, not only the Lunar Research Center is staring, but even Zhao Donghao of Gu Chao Space is also staring at it. It's just that the price is there, and Zhao Donghao takes the company's marketing team around the world to participate in various promotion meetings, but the results have not been very significant.
Zhao Donghao reported to the head office more than once, asking Gu Yu for instructions, hoping to reduce the price, there is no reason why they run the business of leasing aerospace aircraft, and the cost will be higher than that of the Lunar Research Center.
It's just that no matter how Zhao Donghao makes a report, Gu Yu doesn't agree to Zhao Donghao's request to reduce the price. This is like selling goods, there is no reason why the official website sells more expensive than the dealer's, which will make the dealer have no money to make, and there will be no one to distribute it on behalf of the dealer in the future. Of course, this is actually one of the reasons, and there are several other reasons.
One is that Gu Yu is unwilling to fight a price war, in the long run, the leasing market for aerospace aircraft is still very large, even if it only occupies 20% of the share, it can make a lot of money, not to mention, in the Lunar Research Center, Gu Yu also has a lot of shares, and the Lunar Research Center also has a share of Gu Yu's money.
Another reason is that Gu Yu has to let the Lunar Research Center make money, and the shareholders of the Lunar Research Center have to see the dividends, so that they will not feel that investing so much money in the Lunar Research Center is a loss-making business, and only when they make money, they will continue to praise Gu Yu's decision to reorganize the Imitation Moon Center into the Lunar Research Center How correct and wise it is, and Gu Yu can earn a steady stream of prestige value because of this. If you fight the price with the Lunar Research Center, the Lunar Research Center can't make money, who will praise Gu Yu, and it's good not to scold him.
Another reason is that the Lunar Research Center is engaged in leasing aerospace aircraft, but in fact, it has passed the hand. In the future, the Lunar Research Center will need to replace the fuel rods for their aerospace aircraft, need to maintain and maintain the aerospace aircraft, and even have space dangers and need rescue.
Gu Yu asked Zhao Donghao not to put his mind on how to expand the leasing market of Gu Chao Space, in the eyes of the world, Gu Chao Space is the most authentic provider of aerospace aircraft leasing, in a word, it is to lease here, "don't worry about buying fakes", just for this point, Gu Chao Space will not lack leasers. Moreover, Guchao Space can provide differentiated leasing from the Lunar Research Center to meet the needs of different groups and different types of consumers. If he had that spare time, he might as well focus on how to train more astronauts, especially recruiting permanent residents of the moon. In the future, after the moon base is built, there will definitely be people stationed here for a long time, even if it is not for ten or eight years at once, but for a year and a half, it is still very necessary.
This matter must be prepared in advance, and it cannot be sloppy in the slightest. Gu Yu hopes that after the moon base is built, there will be people to move in. If something goes wrong, Zhao Donghao will wait for a review.
Zhao Donghao did not dare to be the slightest sloppy about Gu Yu's requirements, he would definitely take charge of it personally, but for the business of leasing aerospace aircraft, Zhao Donghao did not plan to give up, he planned to follow Gu Yu's instructions and combine the actual situation of Shanggu Super Space to re-establish a promotion team. He believes that as long as his subordinates are willing to work hard and expand their share appropriately, it is still possible, not much, even if it is a lease opportunity more than once a year, it is still more than 100 billion Huaxia yuan in income, enough to do a lot of things.
Zhao Donghao personally made arrangements for the request of the people of the United States to arrange flights.
The first few times, Zhao Donghao personally inquired about the use of aerospace aircraft by the United States, and mastered every detail. When the agreement was signed with the Mi people, the Mi people were in a hurry to reach an agreement, and they were technically subject to Gu Chao Space, so many of the terms in the agreement were not very favorable to the Mi people. Just like choosing a landing site on the moon, the people of the United States only have the right to suggest, not the right to decide, and the people of the United States are not allowed to fly the aerospace plane, and the pilot of the aerospace aircraft has always been arranged by Gu Chao Space.
In addition, if the people of the United States want to use the aerospace plane to transport materials to the moon, then all the materials must be seen and reviewed by Gu Chao Space, and if Gu Chao Space confirms what harm it may cause to the flight of the aerospace aircraft, it is possible to refuse certain materials to enter the aerospace aircraft.
Using these two clauses, Gu Chao Space did not add any more to the Mi people, such as the choice of the landing site, the Mi people provided more than a dozen alternatives, and finally let the Gu Chao space pilot veto them. In the end, the first time they went to the moon, the people of the United States only got a landing site that was definitely not a good one. Later, the people of the United States had to send people to negotiate with Gu Chao Space again, and finally had to pay an additional 500 million Huaxia coins for each shift to win Gu Chao Space to agree to the landing of the space plane at their designated landing site.
For this reason, the people of the United States were depressed and wanted to vomit blood, but there was no way at all. Just like in the past, they often held the lifeline of Huaxia enterprises, and often issued high-priced fines plus high guarantees, but now feng shui takes turns, and it is Gu Yu's turn to hold their life, and if they don't accept it, they can only pinch their noses and admit it.
This alone has allowed Gu Chao Space to earn an additional 26 billion Chinese coins during the lease period of the aerospace aircraft signed with the United States. In addition to knowing the news, Gu Yu also specially praised Zhao Donghao, praising him for his love of using his brains, and in addition, he was also rewarded with an additional 100 million Huaxia coins as a special bonus, and other meritorious personnel also had their own rewards.
