At the headquarters of Shagang Group, Shan Ying had just finished a day's work, and habitually began to lie on the chair, taking a break while entering the virtual world through the virtual watch to learn about real-time news.

As soon as he entered the virtual world, he was immediately fascinated by a piece of news.

Galaxy Technology Group used sunlight in space to smelt 150 million tons of steel in just half a day.

There was almost no hesitation, Shan Ying clicked in without hesitation, as the leader of a steel company, he knew steelmaking too well, and he was also very concerned about all things about steelmaking.

"Smelting 150 million tons of steel in half a day, no matter how you look at it, it's a satellite, but this is Galaxy Technology Group, maybe it's true."

As the head of a steel company, he knows what 150 million tonnes of steel means, and even the world's largest steel company produces only about 100 million tonnes of steel a year.

It took half a day to smelt 150 million tons of steel, which is really unbelievable.

Soon, in Shan Ying's mind, the scene of Galaxy Technology Group smelting an asteroid today, the asteroid that caused the world to suffer from pink eye, melted at a terrible speed under the aggregation of solar energy.

The unprecedented smelting method and powerful technology have created this incredible scene.

"You can still make steel like this!"

After reading it carefully from beginning to end, Shan Ying's whole person was shocked.

Such a steelmaking method is simply whimsical and incredible, and he can't even imagine that a person who has been in the steel company for several years can't even think of it.

In space, using sunlight to smelt asteroids, which is incredibly fast, incredibly fast, is the power of technology, an epoch-making new smelting technology.

"No, if we continue like this, we will be eliminated sooner or later, once there are more smelting factories in space, and there are more asteroid mining, when the steel in space is not used up, it will definitely turn to the earth for sales, and at that time, we will definitely have no place to survive for those companies that make steel with traditional technology."

Then Shan Ying couldn't help but stand up and began to walk around the office.

He felt an unprecedented crisis, a sense of urgency, and he had a premonition that the entire steel industry would undergo a great change, and all the steel companies that failed to adapt to the new era in time would be closed down under this great change and trend.

At the same time, his eyes also saw an unprecedented opportunity, the opportunity for the steel industry to become brilliant again, and he clearly knew that the interstellar space age was about to come, and the steel needed in space in the future would be very huge.

In the future, it is very likely that larger spaceships, space warships, more space factories, space farms, space solar power stations, etc., are indispensable for steel.

"A glorious era is coming, and the key now is to stay one step ahead of others and gain a foothold in the space domain."

Soon, Shan Ying made a decision, he had to gamble, because if he didn't bet, he would be eliminated sooner or later, and if he lost the bet, he would be eliminated, but if he won the bet, he would be able to take the lead in the era of space steelmaking, and the family business passed down by his grandfather was expected to become brilliant.

"Immediately convene a meeting of the company's top management."

At this time, Shan Ying did not have a trace of tiredness, and the tiredness of the day seemed to disappear all at once, and his whole person became extremely excited.

Soon, just ten minutes later, the company's top management gathered in a conference room again.

"I'm very sorry, everyone was supposed to take a break from work, but I have an urgent matter, so I'll call everyone back."

Looking at the people in the conference room, Shan Ying said apologetically.

"Boss, what's the urgency?"

Fang Sixian, who was in charge of sales, said with a smile.

"Let's take a look at this news report first."

Shan Ying nodded, and then used the virtual watch to play the news report she saw on the PPT.

"What do you think after reading it?"

Soon, the news report was played, and Shan Ying looked at the high-level executives present and asked.

"It's unbelievable that 1500000 tons of steel can be smelted in half a day, which is too fast."

"It is worthy of Galaxy Technology Group~"

"Very powerful."

Everyone expressed the shock in their hearts and expressed their admiration for Galaxy Technology Group, but this is not what Shan Ying wants to hear.

"Boss, our opportunity has come, and our crisis has also come."

Fang Sixian pondered for a long time and said slowly.

"That's right."

When Shan Ying heard this, she immediately shouted out happily, and sure enough, only Fang Sixian was the same as herself in the company, and she saw the crisis and opportunity.

"Galaxy Technology Group smelts steel in space, smelting 1500000 tons of steel in half a day, imagine how terrifying this number is."

"It may not seem like much now, but in a year or two, when the number of asteroids mined will be a lot, and this space smelting plant will start non-stop, and the steel smelted will be huge."

"Space is not exhausted, can be sold back to the earth, then we use traditional smelting methods of steel companies have no way to compete with them, our steel company employs tens of thousands of people, a year only smelted a few million tons of steel."

"But they are in space, it is estimated that the number of employees will not exceed 1,000, and 150000 tons of steel will be smelted in half a day.

Shan Ying's tone was a little heavy, and the high-level officials in the entire conference room were also silent one by one, and when they woke up, everyone immediately felt a strong sense of crisis, as if the collapse was imminent.

"However, this is not an opportunity, the interstellar space age has arrived, and there are more and more places where steel needs to be used, and the demand is increasing."

"Galaxy Technology Group's Blue Dragon spacecraft, its mass is more than 1 million tons, and today Japan plans to build a spacecraft comparable to the Blue Dragon in space, and its mass will also reach the level of 1 million tons."

"The European Space Center, polar bears, India, and North America have all announced that they will build huge spaceships in space to mine asteroids, and each of them will have a mass of more than 1 million tons."

"These are enough to show that in the future, in space, the demand for steel will rise in a straight line, with incomparably broad prospects, spaceships, space warships that will sail the universe in the future, space factories, space farms, space cities, etc., there will be more and more places where steel will be used."

"If we can take the lead in the field of space steelmaking, we will stand on the tuyere in the future, and as long as we stand on the tuyere, the pig will be able to take off."

Shan Ying said in an extremely affirmative tone, showing his determination to enter the field of space smelting.

"But do we have such a huge amount of money and technology?"

A high-level member thought about it and said.

"Uncle Xu, how much money do we have in our company's account?"

Shan Ying nodded, turned his head and asked about the company's financial director.

"We still have nearly 40 billion funds in our company's account, all of which rely on the profits saved by being a parts supplier to Galaxy Technology Group in the past two years."

Xu Aiguo is an old man, or left over from the era of Shan Ying's grandfather, he does not agree with Shan Ying's hasty decision to enter the field of space steelmaking, in his opinion, the capital and technology involved in this field are not the current Shagang Group can get involved.

But he also agrees with Shan Ying's point of view, if he doesn't change now, he is waiting to die, if he changes, he may die, and if he doesn't change, he will definitely die.

"There are 40 billion funds available for us to use, and then bet on the next profits, that is to say, we can have nearly 60 billion funds, if we can find a bank loan, we can almost raise hundreds of billions of funds, with such a huge amount of funds, I think it should be barely enough."

After listening to this, Shan Ying also carefully calculated the funds in hand, even the future profits, and loans were counted, he knew that the funds needed to do industry in space would definitely be huge, if it wasn't for the fact that he had a little money now, he wouldn't dare to gamble.

"Jiang Tao, is there any technical difficulty in smelting steel in space?"

"Can we overcome it?"

With the funds, the next thing is the technical aspect, Shan Ying turned his head and asked Jiang Taolai, the head of the Shagang Materials Science Research Institute.

"I have been paying attention to the matter of Galaxy Technology Group's smelting of steel in space for a long time."

"This space smelting plant uses sunlight, and the principle is very simple, that is, it uses this mirror to reflect sunlight, concentrate sunlight on a point, and form a high temperature to smelt asteroids."

"In this regard, there is no technical difficulty, and we can completely achieve it, we only need to build a space smelting factory like this smelter."

Jiang Tao nodded, sorted out his language a little, and said slowly.

He is an expert in technology, and he can see at a glance that this space smelting plant actually does not have much technical content, the principle is simple, and the key point is that it is in space, which requires huge investment.

"Okay, there's nothing wrong with the technical aspects."

"I decided that our Shagang Group officially entered the field of space smelting, I don't know what you think."

Hearing Jiang Tao's words, Shan Ying had a smile on his face, looking very excited, and then said very seriously to the high-level people present.

"Support~"

"No comment."

"I'll see it."

The other executives looked at each other, and then they all nodded.
