Chapter 205, The Moon Industry
In a flash, it's June 2022, and half a year is about to pass.
Qin Yi carefully recalled the past few months in 2022, as if he had been busy all the time and had not done anything.
After the New Year, I was busy with the opening of Galaxy University of Science and Technology, and I was heartbroken for the 505 first freshmen of Galaxy University of Science and Technology, and I was busy with the things of Galaxy University of Science and Technology.
In March, I went to the imperial capital for a month's meeting, and the situation was tense at that time, and all kinds of meetings could not be held, such as scientific and technological meetings, economic conferences, etc., none of which were missing.
As soon as March passed, he was busy with the Persians, and the Persians were in a hurry to get 5 Baiyun Sky Fighters, and the situation was grim at that time, Qin Yi did not dare to slack off, and was personally busy designing and transforming the Baiyun anti-gravity fighters.
After being busy with these things, the international situation soon underwent a great change, and he was busy with the matter of receiving representatives from various countries, and this busy work was busy until June, and half a year passed like this.
"We have received orders from the Japanese, Americans, French, Germans, and British, 5 anti-gravity spacecraft, calculated at an average of 150 billion US dollars, adding up to nearly 8,000 US dollars, that is, more than 3 trillion Chinese dollars (large-scale appreciation of Chinese dollars~~)"
"Huaxia Aerospace Industry Group has received 6 anti-gravity spacecraft from Italians, Indians, South Koreans, Israelis, Brazilians, and Saudis.
Qin Yi sat on his chairman's chair, accompanied by his fingers, and carefully counted the spaceships sold in the recent period.
Counting the previous sales to the Russians, now they have also received orders for 12 anti-gravity spacecraft, and the orders for these 12 anti-gravity spacecraft alone are worth 1.5 trillion US dollars, and the GDP that can be pulled invisibly is even more difficult to count.
In addition to the huge decline in China's economy in the first few months, as soon as the situation changed, it immediately began to develop vigorously.
Even now, the Chinese dollar has appreciated sharply, and Yanran has become an international currency, and domestic low-value-added enterprises and labor-intensive enterprises have been greatly impacted.
However, due to the rapid development of the emerging lunar mining industry, space industry, idea technology industry, and Internet industry, the entire Chinese economy not only did not flinch in the slightest, but flourished at an even more terrifying speed.
With the continuous expansion and development of Galaxy Aerospace Industry Group and Huaxia Aerospace Industry Group, two enterprises that produce anti-gravity spacecraft, more and more spacecraft have begun to be delivered.
In China, large and small moon mining groups have established their own mining bases on the moon, and there were only three bases: the official Moon Palace base in Huaxia, the storm ocean base of Galaxy Mining Group and the mining base of Moon Mining Group.
However, as a few months passed, the more spacecraft were delivered, and the mining bases on the moon suddenly blossomed everywhere, and the major lunar mining groups had already made preparations in all aspects.
By June, on the moon, large and small lunar mining bases, including private mining bases, as well as state-owned enterprises and central enterprises under the Huaxia government, the total number of mining bases suddenly expanded to more than 30.
There are more than 30 lunar bases, almost all of the large and small moon seas on the moon, and the areas of various ointments, and even the Moon Mining Group and Galaxy Mining Group, which have tasted the sweetness in the early stage, have begun to occupy territory and grab resources on the moon at the speed of expanding a mining base in a month.
Tens of thousands of people now live in more than 30 mining bases on the moon.
These tens of thousands of people include scientists, researchers, astronauts, absenteeism from the moon, cooks, cleaners, etc., as well as lunar tourists from the earth, and the whole moon is already very lively.
Among them, the largest lunar base, the Moon Palace base built by the Huaxia official side, is no longer just a base that can be described, it has become a small town, a small town on the moon.
There are huge laboratories and scientific research areas in the Moon Palace Base, and there are thousands of scientists, researchers, engineers, etc., plus other people who serve these scientists, engineers, and researchers, the Moon Palace Base is not much different from a small town on the earth.
Because of the vigorous development of the lunar mining industry, more and more people live on the moon, and the daily consumption of materials alone is extremely huge.
So now, every day, more than 10 spaceships go back and forth between the Earth and the Moon, sending supplies from the Earth side to the Moon, and then transporting all kinds of precious resources mined from the Moon side back to the Earth.
Because the transportation business is too busy, the communication and cooperation between the major lunar mining groups and lunar tourism companies are also very close.
Sometimes, a spacecraft on the side of Galaxy Mining Group flies to the moon, often carrying a lot of supplies from other lunar mining groups, and it will inevitably bring some tourists from the lunar tourism company to some extent.
When I came back, it was naturally stuffed, and boatloads of rare minerals were constantly being transported back to the earth, and the ship was bound to bring a lot of tourists back to the earth.
It can be said that now, the value of every spaceship traveling between the Earth and the Moon is being used to the fullest.
The advantage of this is that the cost of traveling between the Earth and the Moon is constantly reduced, and the resources are maximized, which greatly promotes the development of lunar mining industry and lunar tourism.
There are businessmen with a keen eye in China, but also see the development prospects of the transportation industry between the earth and the moon, and the Shunfeng Group, which is very famous for express delivery in China, actually bought a spaceship and began to specialize in the transportation industry between the earth and the moon, which is said to be more profitable than moon mining.
It takes about 3 hours to fly in one direction between the Earth and the Moon, and it takes about 6 hours to make a round trip, counting the time for loading and unloading cargo, a spaceship can go back and forth between the Earth and the Moon twice a day without any problems.
Round trip, to carry all kinds of supplies and tourists to the moon, and to come back to fill the moon with precious minerals mined on this side of the moon and return to the earth.
The two trips back and forth are full, the effective carrying capacity of a spaceship is 5,000 tons, and the freight of 10,000 yuan for a ton of cargo is not expensive, and a trip is at least 50 million, and the round trip is hundreds of millions, twice a day, which is a transaction of 200 million.
In fact, because of the small gravity on the moon, the spacecraft can carry nearly 20,000 tons of cargo back to the earth when returning, and only need to temporarily store the cargo here at the 'Tiangong' space station, and then go back and forth to space several times to transport the cargo to the ground.
The maximum use of the ship's transportation capacity will naturally make more money.
It can be said that the transportation industry between the earth and the moon is very profitable, and it is not much worse than mining on the moon, and in the end, the idea of this spaceship can also be hundreds of billions of business.
And the cost is very low, only need to recruit two batches of spaceship pilots, plus the electricity consumed and the depreciation of the spaceship, the profit is also very considerable, and the profit margin will not be worse than that of Galaxy Technology Group.
In addition to the transportation business between the earth and the moon, the interstellar tourism company, which tasted the sweetness of lunar tourism in the early stage, is also ambitious and is preparing to build a large-scale lunar amusement city on the moon~
Qin Yi also has to admire his brother-in-law, the first moon tour made Wen Zhongmu earn hundreds of millions of dollars, and then cooperated with Galaxy Technology to continuously organize moon tours again and again.
In just a few months, Wen Zhongmu's interstellar tourism company made a lot of money, a mouth full of oil, and billions of dollars in a few months.
However, this amount of money is far from enough to build a lunar amusement city, and it is barely so-so to build a lunar base, which is definitely not enough to build a lunar amusement city.
But the interstellar tourism company is so profitable, and the family behind the three shareholders of Wen Zhongmu, Li Yun, and Zhou Chuan is also looking at it and being happy in their hearts, and they also fully support the proposal to build a lunar amusement city.
Qin Yi's father-in-law personally found Qin Yi's side, hoping that Qin Yi could give support and help, Qin Yi's side also had to rent a spaceship to them to use, to build a huge lunar amusement city, without a spaceship, it is simply impossible.
In addition, the three big families are also piecing together, trying all kinds of ways to raise hundreds of billions of funds to invest in the project of this lunar amusement city.
Obviously, I am optimistic about the vigorous development of moon tourism in the future, and I also see that with more and more people working and living on the moon, they also need to have fun, and these people are representatives of high-income people, you must know that even the annual salary of the cleaning aunt is 500,000 yuan, not to mention scientists, engineers, astronauts, and moon miners.
The rapid development of the lunar mining industry and lunar tourism has also led to the rapid development of other industries.
Like the manufacturing of spaceships, there are hundreds of thousands of large and small parts of spaceships, in addition to the core parts, Galaxy Aerospace Industry Group and Huaxia Aerospace Industry Group are outsourced, feeding I don't know how many enterprises.
There is also this lunar mining, the special alloy steel needed to build the lunar base, the compressed air needed on the moon, the lunar mining vehicle, mining equipment, smelting equipment needed for mining, the spacesuits, oxygen cylinders, food needed by astronauts in their daily life, and so on.
Around the moon mining industry, tourism, etc., there are too many, too many industries that are not on the moon, but they are also following the profits, and they are booming rapidly.
The emergence of a new industry will inevitably be accompanied by the rise and vigorous development of many related industries, and at the same time, many new professions will be born, such as moon cooks, moon cleaners, moon miners, etc.
