The charity auction has begun.

A well-known auctioneer in China is introducing the origin and price of the lot on the stage.

Mainly some jewelry, or a lady's favorite bags and clothes, or antique paintings. The price ranges from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands, to millions at the highest, but the price is secondary, and everyone knows that the proceeds from the auction will be used for charity, with different meanings.

For people in this circle, gaining fame and network resources is much more important than this money.

Below is a charity lot sponsored by Mr. Chen Mo, a diamond bracelet. Jewelry experts, there are 13 D-grade flawless diamonds, each weighing 1.4 carats, which is significant from the numbers, and the starting price is 4 million. ”

"5.2 million."

"5.3 million."

“……”

"8 million."

When everyone was scrambling for the bracelet, a voice interrupted, and when they looked for the sound, they saw Chen Mo who had just come out of the box.

Wang Qilin and Dai Houlong also came out of it, smiling, as if they had gained a lot, and returned to the position of the main table and sat down, just under the smile, covering the unpleasantness that others could not see.

"Is this a success?"

"I don't know, looking at the expressions of both sides, it seems that some cooperation has been reached."

The guests on the field were all talking in low voices, guessing what kind of cooperation the two sides were talking about, but they couldn't guess why.

At the main table, there were some bigwigs, and it was not good to ask Chen Mo what was going on at this time, these things were not their responsibility, and they watched the charity auction quietly.

"Drink some tea."

Chen Mo sat down, and Zhao Min handed him tea.

She didn't ask about the situation inside, and now on this occasion, it was not suitable to ask, but she believed that Chen Mo would not suffer.

Shortly after he sat down, the hostess returned the bracelet he had photographed.

After all, it was Chen Mo's thing, Chen Mo made a price, and the others didn't follow anymore.

Take it up for auction, auction it back again, and walk around.

This is his gift to Xiaoyu, Xiaoyu is reluctant to sell, Xiaoyu knows that tonight is a charity auction, take it out and go through the process, it should be regarded as a donation for charity.

The next banquet time was spent in chatting, drinking and auction, and the bigwigs on the field, in their spare time at the auction, would talk to each other, talk about investment and business.

But everyone was interested in not touching on the topic that Chen Mo and Wang Qilin had just now.

It wasn't until ten o'clock in the evening that the banquet ended.

"Mr. Chen, Mr. Zhao, tonight is abrupt, I hope next time, we will talk in detail." Dai Houlong and Wang Qilin shook hands with Chen Mo, smiled slightly, and turned to leave.

"What did you talk to them about today? It's nice to see what they look like. ”

In the car, Zhao Min asked curiously.

It was inconvenient to ask too much at the banquet just now, but now on the way back, they can talk about these things freely.

"They pretended, they wanted to cooperate with us on the Outer Sky Resource Development Project, but nothing was achieved." Chen Mo shook his head and smiled.

"What conditions did they give?"

"They want to buy out our mining technology."

"I really dare to speak, but I'm rich enough."

Zhao Min was speechless.

It's all state-of-the-art technology, how much does it cost to buy out technology? It is simply impossible to value. But even if there is more money, they are really not afraid, as long as they dare to make an offer, they can really afford to pay.

"I didn't promise them, and then they wanted to take a stake in the nuclear energy group and Flying Ant Space, or give them the exclusive license to sell outer space resources, and they manage the market side."

Chen Mo said the conditions that the two of them talked about just now.

Invest in Flying Ant Aerospace or Nuclear Energy Group, take meat from his bowl, and also want to manage the market side.

In any company, the market side is the most critical place, and if the market side is controlled, it is quite the lifeblood of the company in the hands of others, as long as the people who understand the operation of the company a little bit, will not agree to that kind of condition.

"Quite an appetite."

"It may be that they think that after we cooperate with the Nuclear Industry Group and the Academy of Sciences, it is natural for us to cooperate with them, so the conditions put forward have become a little more greedy and domineering."

Chen Mo shook his head and smiled.

"The stakes in the development of resources in outer space are too great."

The cake is too big, and the wealth is moving.

It's normal for others to want a piece of the pie, not to mention the fact that the massive emergence of controlled nuclear fusion technology and helium-3 fuel has shaken the status of two barrels of traditional fossil fuels.

If the two do not do something, they will face the risk of elimination.

"Could they be pawns sent from above to test our meaning?" Zhao Min said.

After all, the times are different, and Zhao Min is not sure what the opinions above are.

Flying Ant Aerospace is a private company, and strategic resources are in the hands of a private company, no matter how you look at it, others will feel a little inappropriate.

"Probably not."

Chen Mo shook his head.

"The cooperation in artificial intelligence technology and controlled nuclear fusion technology in front of us should be clear that we have a sense of proportion, and we take the initiative to cooperate, which is the basis for cooperation.

We have a lot of strategic technologies in our hands, and what they know like ion engines, aerospace aircraft, war robots, amethyst, etc., which is not comparable to controlled nuclear fusion technology? But the two only choose nuclear fusion technology and outer space resources?

We can think that at most two barrels of oil are now facing market difficulties, and the two of them want to get benefits from us to solve it, after all, the performance there is related to their future. ”

The two of them are completely different from the people sent from above.

Li Chengzhi was often ordered to cooperate with him or ask for help, but he was always polite to him, in a tone of consultation and inquiry, rather than putting forward such domineering conditions as soon as he came up.

"It's too complicated, it's a bit of a headache." Zhao Min was a little worried.

"It's useless to think too much about it now."

……

The Moon, the anthole region.

It's daytime, and on the surface of the moon with hundreds of degrees Celsius, the robots in this area are still busy.

Not far away is a fan-shaped clearing that has been cleaned of moon dust. The clearing is like a funnel cut in the middle, with a steep slope, gravel paving, and ruts everywhere.

Where the ruts converge, a long tunnel has appeared at some point.

At the entrance of the tunnel, it is closed by a ceramic alloy gate, on which you can clearly see the signs of the marching ant group and the flying ant spaceflight.

Inside the door at the entrance of the tunnel, the temperature drops slightly, and the tunnel with a diameter of five meters is not too bright, but you can see that the tunnel wall is smooth and has obviously been remodeled and reinforced.

The tunnel winds its way into the depths, and in the depths of the parking room, on a branch tunnel, the mechanical door is closed, and the door leads to the cavern, where a large fortress-like building is embedded in the cave wall.

The fort extends through a long passage that leads to other tunnels inside the cavern.

The lunar soil 3D printing robot is continuously pouring and printing the molten lunar rock and lunar soil, and the gaps between the walls are also injected with thermal insulation materials, and after all the materials are cooled, the whole wall is connected into a whole, which is very strong.

Other robots, each with their own duties, are busy without stopping.

The first phase of the lunar base project is nearing completion.
