Chapter 465: Construction Model (II)
Regarded as a remote and uninhabited island, Chen Yang did not immediately start to develop after buying it, and the land of more than 2,000 square kilometers is not small, and if you want to build a modern city completely on this barren land, it may not be feasible to throw in more than 100,000 US dollars, and it is not a difficult task that can be completed by an individual.
Fortunately, Chen Yang does not need to be built in one step, let alone alone, sometimes he only needs to show his potential and future benefits, which will naturally attract large amounts of investment, and he does not have to spend money himself.
There was no time for the first few months, but by mid-December, near the end of 2015, Chen Yang was finally free to organize the first phase of construction.
The first planned area is the bay part of the island, which is expected to be built in an area of about seven square kilometers, and hopes to complete the initial port development, as well as a five-star resort and an airstrip within half a year, with a total investment of 3.5 billion US dollars, totaling more than 21 billion yuan, which is undertaken and developed by the world's top VINCI construction contractor company and a number of top construction companies.

"Woo woo woo ......"
The violent wind and engine sound of the wings spinning are deafening, and when you sit on the seat and look down, you can see that the island jungle hundreds of meters below is dense and endless, connecting with the high mountains of the island in the distance, forming this sea pearl that is definitely not small.
"This place is really not small......"
Wang Rui looked up with a telescope and couldn't help but sigh.
Such a large island, although deserted, and there are no cherished resources on the island, but after all, the area is not small, and now the ownership is actually in the hands of the company.
If this is changed to China, let alone whether such a large island will be sold to private individuals. Even if the state is willing to sell it, it is estimated that no one can afford this price.
And now it only costs $70 million to buy this island, which feels like the United States bought Alaska from Russia for millions of dollars in history.
However, this is also in the eyes of he, a person who knows the inside story, to take advantage of it, and it may be in the eyes of others. The man who paid $70 million for this island is a fool.
In the distance, on the seashore, 10,000-ton ships carrying thousands of tons of steel and cement slowly roam, or it will not be long before these building materials will be turned into finished products on this island, and modern urban buildings will gradually appear in the eyes of the world over time.
"Boss, such a big place, I'm afraid that I can't handle it for 3.5 billion dollars!"
The helicopter made a circle around the area planned on the map. Wang Rui is not the straw bag he used to be, and after comparing the map with the company's planning and design goals, he immediately felt that the $3.5 billion was probably not enough.
The airport is fine, an airstrip is only used to take off small planes and helicopters, so it can be done for less than tens of millions of dollars, but the focus is still on the large area of jungle in Changping, and the construction of ports and five-star resorts.
The latter two cost less than a billion dollars, but I'm afraid it won't work. The latter also depends on what level of five-star resort is built.
Five-star is a general concept, and the difference between five-star is not small. 100 million US dollars can build a five-star resort, and 1 billion US dollars can also build a five-star resort. With these $3.5 billion invested, I am afraid that I can't even hear a dingdong sound.
"That's why it's an upfront investment."
Chen Yang didn't use a telescope, but he was still able to see things in the distance clearly. It is even much clearer than Wang Rui can see with a telescope.
"There will be an additional $5 billion to come...... I'm going to have an investor conference in the near future to see if we can bring those people in and give it a try. ”
Chen Yang estimated that in order to complete the rough prototype of the city, at least more than 100 square kilometers of land would be needed, which is about one-sixth of the area of the inner city of Chengdu's Third Ring Road.
Because it is built according to the standards of a new type of city, it will save a lot of money overall. But according to preliminary estimates, 130 billion dollars will also be invested!
This amount of money is too huge, with Andres's current strength, it will be a little difficult to come up with half of the funds, after all, Chen Yang still has quite a lot of strategic plans, and it is impossible to invest all the money in it, and it is the key to solving the problem by winning over those wealthy investors.
With the financial resources of those big tyrants, it is not very strict to apportioned 100 billion US dollars, not to mention that a group of people pull a group of people, this relationship network is there, why worry about no investment?
When this high-tech city, which is more luxurious and ultra-high-tech than Dubai, is established, Chen Yang will also have a reason to carry out large-scale nuclear power plant construction to lay the foundation for the future space power transmission.
Prior to this, Chen Yang also had a discussion with his right hand.
"After all, space transmission is very troublesome, Chief Screw, can you consider using local materials?"
“?”
"Solar space arrays, or just move the fusion reactor to the space station."
Chen Yang groaned: "I have calculated the accounts, if you want to transmit electric energy to space, one is to build a space elevator, and the other is to transmit electricity. Considering that wireless transmission will lose a considerable part of the power and cannot meet such a large power transmission, the only way to build a space elevator is to build a space elevator. We already have the theory of space elevator technology, and it is not difficult to solve the materials, at most, the troubles in politics need to be cautious...... But we have the technical reserves, but with the current level of science and technology on the earth, even if the construction starts in ten years, it will take more than 15 years, and the total investment will exceed 10 trillion US dollars...... I'm afraid that even the U.S. government can't afford it...... Andres and many other investors couldn't afford it. Of course, if the space elevator is really built, the economic benefits will be huge, and it will only take six years for us to recoup the investment cost. ”
Speaking of this, Chen Yang was very helpless: "But before that, I was afraid that the space elevator would be halfway through the construction, and we would have gone bankrupt." ”
What is the concept of ten trillion dollars?
In 2014, China's GDP only reached 10.4 trillion US dollars, that is, if you want to build a space elevator, you need to convert the GDP developed by 1.4 billion Chinese throughout the year into all the funds, maybe not enough!
"In contrast, the construction of a space station and the realization of a fusion reactor at the same time are expected to start the program in two years, and the initial completion of the space station program in six years, and this only requires us to invest less than $50 billion a year, and four years plus the rest of the expenses will be only $300 billion, which is far better than building a space elevator."
It is not impossible to force the space elevator project, but unfortunately the cost is enough to bankrupt the government of any country in the world, so starting this project within 30 years is basically a money-burning act.
In contrast, the construction of the space station is not only more subtle and easier to find a reason, but also not afraid of being interfered too much by state forces during the period, and at the same time, it can also test the reality of the spaceship (the sub-element body in the right hand is self-detonated, and can only be left by the way of building a spaceship), which is simply killing two birds with one stone.
It is reasonable and convincing, and the right hand is not an unreasonable creature, at least it is still reasonable in the face of Chen Yang, and after a little verification, you can know that what Chen Yang said is true, and it is not a word used to deceive it.
However, even so, the plan to purchase the island to build a new high-tech city has not been abandoned, but has been retained as an important strategic direction of the company.
First, it is used as a backup for the space station plan, and second, if such a high-tech and new city is really built in the Pacific Ocean, the scale of the economic benefits generated by the agglomeration is quite terrifying.
Naturally, the rest of the forces do not have this ability, but Andres, who has a considerable amount of technical reserves, is almost predictable success.
……
"Woo woo woo ......"
After finding an open space, the helicopter slowly landed, and before it was completely close to the ground, Chen Yang jumped from the open hatch, his clothes being blown behind him.
As a low-altitude tropical rainforest climate, this time in December, it is in the rainy season, just after a heavy rain, the air is very fresh, just a slight breath, it seems to be able to make the heart and lungs wash again, very comfortable.
It has to be said that if a resort is built in such a place, maybe with this superior air environment, it can really attract some people to come for vacation.
"Boss."
Wang Rui also followed and walked out of the cabin, and the two heavily armed EMER members behind him, armed with weapons, also followed, standing vigilantly behind the two, on standby at any time.
"In just half a year, the land will be surrounded by modern buildings."
Chen Yang stared at the tropical rainforest not far away, "In the future, as the main person in charge here, you should be more careful and careful, so as not to cause any trouble, you know?" ”
"Yes, boss, I understand, there will be no mistakes."
Wang Rui hurriedly expressed his attitude.
The next development and construction is really a big project. The construction of the Dubai Tower cost 1.5 billion US dollars and employed more than 4,000 workers, so the construction of this island city, even if it is the first phase of the project, will reach a staggering number of manpower, daily consumption and project arrangement, it is really not an easy thing to do.
Being entrusted with such an important task of supervising the construction of the project, Wang Rui really felt very stressed for a while.
But on the other hand, it's a great opportunity. The company's top management is one of the last few in its own position, and taking over such a heavy responsibility, the status has been invisibly raised a lot. (To be continued......)
