Chapter 84 Vertical Farming

On May 3, 2017, the world's first optical quantum computer that surpassed the early classical computer was born in Dongtang.

At the same time, the Reserve Bank announced an interest rate hike.

The other is the Gallic presidential election, and Macron, who married his teacher, was successfully elected president of Gaul.

……

Huang Haojie is busy in various research institutes of Galaxy Technology, and at the same time pays attention to the situation of various enterprises in the galaxy.

If Galaxy Technology relied on Raytheon Group to make profits last year, then this year, other companies have also begun to make profits or break even.

The surging group benefited from the surging elegant listing, and the surging motor also received extraordinary orders.

The orders of surging motors are mainly from CRRC's silicon steel sheet plating self-power generation coating orders, and Biyadea, Geely, Changan, JAC, Jinlong and other automobile companies have also placed a large number of silicon steel sheet plating self-power coating orders.

Lifan even directly purchased 5,000 surging 1 motors.

In addition, four real estate projects of Planet Infrastructure Company have also been built, and two of the four real estate projects here are prepared for Galaxy Technology's own employees, and the rest are sold to the outside world.

Although one square is not much, it is a small profit.

However, in order to suppress speculation, there are restrictions on the purchase of houses by Planet Infrastructure.

That is, those who have real estate in their names cannot buy, each person is limited to one set, the house cannot be transferred within ten years, if the money is urgently needed, it can be repurchased by the planet company after depreciation according to the service life.

These are subject to the signing of contractual agreements, and if the private sale is discovered, the planetary company will use the default as a reason to force depreciation to buy back the property.

Huang Haojie's purpose is to suppress Shanmei's housing prices, and if these speculators are allowed to make waves, it will be in no interest to the people of Shanmei.

Shanmei officials also had to cooperate to suppress property speculation.

After all, speculating in a house will bring the Shanmei house to the sky, and when Huang Haojie is angry, he will directly learn to spend money and move away for the company, which is called drawing salary from the bottom of the kettle.

If this happens, it will definitely be a fatal blow to Shanmei.

After all, half of Shanmei's economy is now on Galaxy Technology, and this proportion has become larger and larger.

Xinli, another large group of Shanmei, is moving some of its factories to Huicheng City.

In addition, Xinli is engaged in electronic foundry, and with the deterioration of the international economic situation this year, their electronics factories have seen layoffs and underwork.

Shanmei officials are now paying more and more attention to Galaxy Technology, and Huang Haojie's every move will even have a huge impact on Shanmei and even this Lingnan.

Therefore, Shanmei officials had to suppress property speculation.

After all, what if the economy will be speculated by one trillion yuan, can it also increase employment? Or can it raise the income of residents?

Obviously, the speculation in the house is just a piece of chicken feathers in the end.

Just look at how many empty cities there are in the Eastern Tang Dynasty.

……

The three provinces of Zhuge handed Huang Haojie a report on agricultural development strategy.

Huang Haojie flipped through it.

"Zhuge , why do you fancy vertical farming?"

"Mr. Huang, in fact, vertical farming has a very huge advantage for us at Galaxy Technology." Zhuge Sansheng replied confidently.

"You mean the cost of electricity!" Huang Haojie knew the key when he thought about it.

The cost of wind power generation in the eastern part of Lingnan will continue to decline over time.

Especially once the investment cost is recovered, the cost per kilowatt hour will drop to between 0.1~0.2 yuan.

This means that the cost of electricity for vertical farming will drop by a factor of four to six, and in general, vertical farming consumes about five to seven times more electricity than traditional farms.

The electricity cost of Galaxy Technology directly smooths out the electricity cost gap between vertical farming and traditional farms.

"That's right, our power generation costs will decrease year by year, which means that our electricity costs will be about 15~25% of others."

"In addition, we have our own construction company, and we have a preliminary estimate that the construction cost of the vertical farming building is about 5,000 yuan per square meter."

With the analysis of the three provinces of Zhuge Province, Huang Haojie feels more and more that this vertical farming can be played.

The advantages and disadvantages of vertical farming have always been clear.

Advantage: Produces a very consistent product because all environmental factors are fixed.

The entire facility can be placed in the center of the city, on the roof of the building, etc., to avoid the loss caused by logistics and transportation. It can also be put on ocean-going ships, drilling platforms, aircraft carriers to provide fresh vegetables.

The cultivation density is very high, and a considerable degree of mechanization and automation can be achieved.

The disadvantages are also obvious: the cost of electricity for light, climate control (mainly refrigeration, dehumidification) is extremely high and economically viable.

At present, the light intensity provided by LED technology is not enough to support many crops, such as tomatoes, cucumbers, etc.

Compared with natural light, the flavor of the product is not good, and a lot of research is currently focusing on this problem.

The upfront investment is quite large.

Organic production is currently difficult to achieve, and organic fertilizers can easily clog irrigation and drainage systems.

But the cost of electricity and the cost of buildings, Galaxy Technology has a way to keep it down, and other problems will not be too big.

As for the flavor, it is a big deal that it cannot be sold, and it is directly used to feed pigs, or to grow oil crops.

After two days of careful study.

He summoned Li Jianhua, Zhuge three provinces, and the president of Planet Company.

"Lao Li, I have decided to establish Fengdu Agricultural Group to vigorously develop vertical farming, this is the plan."

Li Jianhua hurriedly took it and took a look, and he was immediately startled by Huang Haojie's big stroke.

Because Fengdu Group is not only developing vertical farming, but also fully entering the agricultural field.

Including agricultural equipment, pesticides and fertilizers, seed cultivation, artificial light sources, cold chain transportation, food processing, catering and retail.

"Companies that can be acquired are acquired as soon as possible, and we want to control all aspects so that the costs are not inflated."

"No problem." Li Jianhua could only nod his head.

"In addition, Dayi Your Planet Company has also been reorganized into the Planet Group, which can acquire steel mills, cement factories, tile factories and the like, which are produced by themselves and can reduce costs."

"Okay, boss." Da Da Yi was overjoyed, after all, the establishment of the Planet Group meant that his level had been raised.

"Zhuge , your institute cooperates with Fengdu Group and Planet Group to improve the entire industrial chain."

"Yes." Zhuge Sanxing nodded.

……

With Huang Haojie's decision-making.

The business management department of Galaxy Technology suddenly became busy.

The people at the Institute for Social Research are analysing which parts need to be controlled and which can be outsourced. The part that needs to be controlled is how large the enterprises to control, whether these enterprises are available in China, and how much capital they need to consume.

Since May, the business management department of Galaxy Technology has joined forces with the Social Research Institute to buy and buy all over the country.

The official website of Galaxy Technology.

"What's going on? Why did Galaxy Technology acquire so many agricultural enterprises?" — Martian

"Our Mr. Huang may be tired of playing in the industry and want to play farming and raising pigs." — The suspicion of the car is unfounded

"I just found out that there are a lot more subordinate groups of Galaxy Technology." —Li Yuanfang

"@李元芳, you just found out." —Di Renjie

"Supernova Industries and Fengdu Agricultural Group have been added, but when was this Supernova Industry established, why is there no news at all?" — Cats

"@喵星人, Supernova Industry is in Xi'an, Qin Province, and it seems to be a military industry with a very high level of secrecy, don't ask me how I know, because I live opposite." —Wang Xingren

"How do I feel that this subsidiary of Fengdu Agricultural Group is a bit too much." — It's all society's fault

"How are the current bigwigs maverick? Farming and raising pigs Huang Haojie. "—I don't know the beauty of my wife

"@不知妻美, I don't know my wife, Liu Jingdong, and I regret Ali Jackma; Nothing, Wang Wanda, ordinary family twist vine; Peking University is okay with Beining, and Tsinghua admission ruins his life. —Small goals

In fact, Fengdu Agricultural Group has indeed made a very big move, and has established eight subsidiaries through mergers and acquisitions.

A subsidiary that is responsible for the production of fertilizers, pesticides, culture fluids, etc., and enriches the chemical company.

Fengdu Agricultural Machinery Company, which is responsible for the production and research and development of agricultural equipment; Xinguang company, which is responsible for the production and development of LED artificial light sources; a fresh company responsible for cold chain logistics and warehousing; Yuanmei Company, which is responsible for food processing; Green Earth, a company responsible for food and beverage retail.

Then there is Fengdu Vertical Farming Company and Fengdu Animal Husbandry Company.

Obviously, the big move of Galaxy Technology is confusing.
