Chapter 361, drooling
Time is slowly passing, Qinglong is dragging the asteroid closer and closer to the earth, and the outer space of the entire earth is also busy, and all countries in the world are staring.
"Countdown 10 seconds~"
On the Qinglong spaceship, Wu Renjie said loudly to everyone.
At this time, under the tow of the Qinglong spacecraft, the speed of the asteroid has been reduced to only a few kilometers per second, which is enough to be captured by the strong gravitational pull of the earth.
Everyone became nervous, whether it can succeed or not, this is an important event related to human beings moving towards interstellar space, once it fails, it is likely to become taboo to mine asteroids in the future, but once it succeeds, under the trend of huge interests, the world will set off a wave of asteroid mining, and the entire human race will truly enter the interstellar space age.
“3~”
“2~”
“1~”
On the Qinglong spaceship, the sound of the countdown kept sounding, and Wu Renjie and the others looked at the dazzling blue planet outside one by one, but their minds kept paying attention to the dynamics of the asteroid.
As the countdown came to 1, everyone on the Qinglong spaceship only felt that the spacecraft was shaking, the flight orbit of the spacecraft changed, and the huge gravitational pull of the earth captured the spacecraft and the asteroid, and it entered the earth's orbit very smoothly, becoming a satellite flying around the earth, similar to the moon, but the difference in mass and size was too far.
"Haha~ Success!"
Long Zhankong jumped for joy first, and the computer calculated the new orbit of the asteroid in the shortest time, and now it can be determined that it was captured by the gravitational pull of the earth.
"Whew~"
Qin Yi, who was in the space city, also breathed a heavy sigh of relief, and then bursts of deafening cheers came from his side.
"It worked!"
Liu Peiqiang, Lu Qingwei, Zhang Jian, Yang Hongyan and other scientists and engineers of the Galaxy Science Research Institute are all dancing excitedly, and everyone can be said to have been fighting for several years for this moment.
From the construction of the Dragon's Nest Space Factory, to the research of the second-generation anti-gravity engine, to the manufacture of the second-generation anti-gravity engine, and then to the construction of the Qinglong spacecraft, it took almost several years.
"Hard work everyone, I'll give you a good rest for a while when I go back."
Qin Yi smiled and said to everyone.
"Yay~"
Hearing that Qin Yi was going to give everyone a holiday, there was a cheer again.
Earth, a secret private club in the imperial capital of China, Ji Rong, Lao Wang, Lao Ma and other super-rich people in China gathered together, and everyone looked at the huge monitor one by one, and the aspect played on the monitor was the picture of the Qinglong spaceship taken from space.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it has just been confirmed that the asteroid towed back by the Qinglong spacecraft has safely entered the Earth's orbit and has become a satellite flying around the Earth, without any threat to the Earth."
A man with eyes hurriedly walked in and announced very loudly to everyone present.
"I knew that with Brother Qin's usual style, he would never do anything he wasn't sure of."
Ji Rong smiled and nodded.
"Brother Qin has made a fortune this time, the mass of this asteroid has reached 150 million tons, according to the analysis of scientists, this asteroid is almost all iron, this 150 million tons of iron, or iron in space, it should not be too much to sell 3,000 yuan a ton, that is to say, this asteroid will be worth 450 billion Chinese dollars."
"In just 3 months, relying on more than 20 people to drag back 450 billion Chinese dollars from the asteroid belt, which is faster than the speed of printing money, are you really not impressed?"
Lao Wang couldn't help wiping the saliva from the corners of his mouth as he spoke.
When Qin Yi sold the Qinglong spaceship to him and Ji Rong a few months ago, they still thought it was very expensive, and no matter what Qin Yi said, they didn't want to pay for it.
But when the cleanup dragged an asteroid back to the earth, and after a simple calculation by scientists, the asteroid was worth 450 billion, Lao Wang and Ji Rong couldn't sit still anymore, so there was this party.
With the strong appeal of the two people, these super-rich people in Huaxia were called over, everyone made a fortune together, there was no way, the price of this spaceship was too expensive, Qin Yi originally offered 2 trillion, such a sky-high price, even for the world's top rich people like Ji Rong and Lao Wang, it was also a lot of pressure.
It is true that they have money, but wealth exists in the form of stocks, and it is not easy to realize it, especially with such a huge demand for funds, once the stock market is frantically sold, the stock market will fluctuate violently, and the stock price will plummet, and there is no way to raise such a huge amount of money.
Therefore, it is necessary to call other people to make a fortune together, with less pressure and less risk.
"Qin Yi really told you that he would sell you a spaceship for 2 trillion?"
Brother Pony thought for a moment and asked.
"Well, just a few months ago, Lao Ji and I thought this spaceship was very expensive, and we didn't want to buy it anyway, but now our intestines are repentant."
Lao Wang nodded and said.
"It takes about 3 months to go back and forth to the asteroid belt, and you can go back and forth almost four times a year, if you can have such a harvest every time, you can almost have a trillion Chinese dollars this year, this investment is only 2 trillion, and you can recover the cost in two years, and you will make money in the future, and this business can be done."
Everyone present is a human spirit, not only now that they have seen the data here, but they have also listened to the detailed reports and analysis of their subordinates before they come back, even if it is the simplest calculation, everyone is almost the same as Lao Wang, and their saliva is flowing.
"I'll give 200 billion~"
Brother Xiao Ma took the lead in raising his hand, and as soon as he made a move, it was 200 billion Chinese dollars.
"I'll give 100 billion~"
"I'll give 100 billion~"
Someone started, and the others were naturally not to be outdone, you 100 billion, I 200 billion, everyone was very tacit, and they clearly knew the purpose of Ji Rong and Lao Wang to gather everyone, so there was no need to say too much at all, and they directly entered the fundraising link.
Wen Tianming was also among the crowd, and he also kept his saliva, but he didn't go to join in the fun with everyone, because he had his own ambitions.
"With such a big deal, there are more people, and less money is made, so it's better to find a few other families alone and partner together, just like when mining on the moon."
"The most important thing is the early stage, as long as you have an advantage in the early stage, the gap behind can slowly get bigger and bigger~"
Wen Tianming already has his own plan in his mind, he is Qin Yi's father-in-law, and there is naturally no problem at all in buying a spaceship from Qin Yi, he can have everything now, and Qin Yi's support is inseparable, of course, Qin Yi's ability to make his industry bigger and stronger is also indispensable to the support of Wen Tianming's father-in-law.
However, this time the investment is too big, 20,000 spaceships, Wen Tianming can't eat it himself, and he must find a few family partners who have always had a very good cooperative relationship.
……
In Japan, in a palace at the foot of Mt. Fuji, many bigwigs and chaebols gathered.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this asteroid has a mass of 150 million tons, almost all of which is iron, and according to our estimates, it is worth more than 450 billion Chinese dollars~"
As the person who presided over the party reported this figure to everyone, these bigwigs and chaebols couldn't help but blush and drool.
"I would like to solemnly remind everyone that this is no longer just a matter of wealth, but of the development of civilization, the Chinese people have been able to mine asteroids and obtain resources from the entire solar system, and we have not mastered anti-gravity technology until now, let alone build a huge spaceship like the Qinglong."
"150 million tons of steel, or steel in space, I believe that soon the Chinese people can use this steel to make more spaceships, space warships, and then go to the asteroid belt to mine more asteroids."
"If such a virtuous cycle continues, in less than a few years, the entire solar system will become the back garden of the Chinese people, and everything at this time is like the primitive accumulation of the Industrial Revolution, and they are carrying out the primitive accumulation for the Age of Interstellar Discovery."
"Once this accumulation is completed, they can build a powerful space warship to break into the sea of stars, and start the Age of Exploration in the interstellar age."
The host's voice was very loud and powerful, and he also saw the future development path of Huaxia very clearly, and his words made the bigwigs present quickly regain their composure and become silent.
"We missed the Age of Discovery, so we have been confined to small islands, and in this Age of Discovery, we can't miss every step, and the same goes for this mining asteroid, and we have to get involved, no matter what the cost."
"One step behind, one step behind, this is something that must not be allowed to happen."
The host's voice was sonorous and powerful, and he was able to preside over this meeting, this person himself was a real boss, and his words also made everyone present nod their heads in support.
"Immediately send someone to Huaxia to contact Qin Yi, no matter what method is used, you must buy a spaceship from Qin Yi's side."
"The Academy of Sciences has to find a way to develop our own spacecraft that is not affected by gravity in space, and we can use the traditional rocket propulsion system to sail and mine asteroids in the asteroid belt."
"All the people should be prepared for this and do everything possible to get more Chinese dollars, and I don't want us to take measures because we don't have enough Chinese dollars."
"Gentlemen, a magnificent era is coming, we must work harder, in Qin Yi's words, that is, we must lay a starry sky for future generations!"
