Chapter 428: Explosive Growth

Perspective back to modern society.

The time has come to January 2036.

Inside the Magical City.

Recently, Xu Yuan has been on the side of modern society, dealing with the affairs of the group, and he is in a very busy state.

The finance department also counted last year's revenue and reported the group's achievements in 2035 last year.

Inside the President's Office.

After reading several comprehensive reports on the performance of various subsidiaries in his hand, Xu Yuan couldn't help but rub his temples and felt very surprised.

Earned.

Many subsidiaries under the name of Xu Yuan's Magic Group, except for pharmaceutical research companies, most of them have made money, and even made explosive profits, which is beyond the expectations of many people.

The total revenue reached 1.8 trillion yuan, an increase of 70% from last year.

The actual advanced net income reached 1.22 trillion yuan, an increase of more than 60% from last year.

The amount of net profit announced to the outside world is 0.12 trillion yuan, and the profit margin is close to 10%, which is quite eye-catching.

The growth rate in all aspects is actually faster than that of the Ming world, with an average of more than 30 billion yuan of income coming in every day, which is beyond people's imagination, and in China, even those Internet giants, state-owned factories, and some monopoly high-profit industries are far from catching up with the magic group in terms of money-making efficiency.

Even in a large Internet company, such as Huayao, which is extremely advanced in technology, leading the world, with countless talents, and has a revenue of two or three trillion yuan every year, the actual net profit will not exceed 5%. Some years may still lose money, the reason is to raise a super R&D team of 230,000 people, the annual R&D expenditure alone is more than 300 billion, and the investment is still increasing, so the profit margin is very low and exaggerated.

But in the past year, the companies of Xu Yuan's Magic Group have either been on the right track of development, or have created a large amount of revenue, or even explosive growth, which is so prosperous that Xu Yuan feels numb.

What the hell is going on?

Is the organic food, clothes, daily necessities and furniture in the Ming world really so easy to sell in modern society? Why did it suddenly explode this year, and the growth was so terrifying.

There are two main factors.

First, on the side of modern society, in order to stimulate the economy, the state has implemented a monetary easing policy, as the saying goes, is to start the money printing machine, a lot of money printing, the purpose is to stimulate consumption, stimulate development, encourage entrepreneurship and investment, etc., resulting in an extra 100 trillion printed, equivalent to about 30% of GDP, according to normal circumstances, to engage in such an exaggerated monetary release, even if the corresponding control measures are taken, the intention to control the increase in prices at 10% The following (you must know that in the absence of policy interference, the degree to which prices will fall may also reach about 30%), but after taking all measures, the price of many daily materials still has a 15% increase, which means that the economy is overheated, there is too much hot money in the market, and if it is not strictly controlled, the quality of life of many ordinary people will be affected or even decline.

At this time, when the prices in various places were rising, making many low-level people complain, Tianfeng Company, which cooperated with the Magic Group, announced that most of the goods in the Tianfeng APP would not increase in price, and even if the price increased, it would never exceed 5% to avoid affecting the normal life of the people.

It is this regulation that has made the magic group circle a large wave of fans, adding more than 8 million new users, and then under the temptation of all kinds of dazzling high-quality and low-cost products, users have shouted that they really want to, and then they are frequently buying, buying, buying, so that the total revenue has increased by more than 20%.

It's just that for these traditional commercial projects, the growth ceiling exists after all, and at the end of the year, the sales volume has increased by 200 billion yuan.

There are still two or three hundred billion yuan in revenue, but it is earned in the market expansion in the field of science and technology.

To put it bluntly, it is the TV, radio, 3G mobile phone, second-generation game console, second-generation computer and other products produced by many subsidiaries of the Magic Group, which suddenly sold well, and actually set off a wave of archaeological wind, becoming a product that many users just need, and suddenly became extremely popular and popular, which is unbelievable.

Xu Yuan was also very surprised, such as the big-butt TV, which relies on antennas to listen to signals, and the number of programs is also very limited, but in the past year, more than 50 million units have been sold, which is incredible, completely knocking those large-screen smart TVs to the ground, creating a miracle of low-level technology defeating high-tech.

As for the reason, it is very simple, that is, after entering the era of intelligence, almost everything has to be charged, even if it is a movie or TV series thirty or forty years ago, it is actually necessary to open a paid membership, and even opening an ordinary membership is not enough, what gold members and diamond members have to be opened, in order to see more film and television dramas, full of various routines.

Secondly, that is the artificial intelligence tool, after eliminating most of the work of human beings, it can also collect people's characteristics and preferences in the process of people's use, including privacy, etc., resulting in transparency, no matter how deep the secret will be controlled by artificial intelligence, even know yourself better than yourself, such a living environment, it makes some people fear of life, afraid of everything about themselves, after being understood by artificial intelligence, shortcomings and secrets are collected by artificial intelligence, in case of betrayal launched by artificial intelligence, It's easy to take control of your death hole and put you to death.

The use of old-fashioned TVs, game consoles, computers and other equipment, either no networking, or can not load artificial intelligence programs, but also more comfortable to play, watch TV, add a little fun, not all the time and energy, are controlled by artificial intelligence.

This makes old-fashioned TVs, game consoles, computers and other products, regain their vitality, once again become a rigid need, the performance of the eye-catching, simply surprised countless people, of course, there are also those who want to be ambiguous, the result is either not sufficient entrepreneurial funds, or encounter some problems in technology, and in terms of related talents, it is almost impossible to find qualified and easy-to-use top talents, it seems that all in the magic city, and then take the strategy of digging people, and dig can not move, comprehensive factors down, this market, It was basically eaten by the Magic Group, and there was no way to be snatched away.

On the other hand.

In the past year, the development of science and technology in modern society has also been a milestone year, which is very important for the development of industry.

It has entered the state of the first year of the space economy, and it has become an opportunity that countless investors and entrepreneurs want to seize.

What is the space economy? How did it become the first year?

As a matter of fact!

The space environment is very special, because there is no gravity or microgravity, so in this environment, many materials will undergo special changes, especially in the purification of matter, on the surface of the earth, the existence of gravity, will cause impurities to be difficult to separate, especially physically similar materials, but also at the atomic level, difficult to separate, so can not get enough pure materials, especially semiconductor silicon, on the surface of the earth, the purity limit that human beings can do, about 9 9 looks, no matter how high it is unlikely.

If it is in the space environment, some methods are also used to purify the material to precipitate the element, but it can be easier to obtain a higher purity substance, it is entirely possible to reach 11 9s, or 18 9s or even infinitely close to 100%, and such materials often have better physical properties, can make chips with better performance, make materials with higher conductivity, and even process more nanomaterials, in terms of physical properties, there is a three-fold, five-fold or even ten-fold improvement, which is extremely excellent.

In addition, there are many kinds of new materials, only in the space environment, can be grown or synthesized, and these new materials, some can improve the energy density of the battery, some can be made into a stronger shell and ensure lightness, and some materials, can absorb a lot of light, become a photovoltaic panel with high power generation efficiency, and even the best reflective glass, can also be polished and processed in the space environment to obtain a variety of super glass.

And so on and so forth.

In short, in the space environment, you can get thousands or even millions of kinds of special new materials, can bring countless progress and promotion to human science and technology, after all, the progress of science and technology, in essence, is the progress of materials, now the weightless environment of space, is the latest place for the outbreak of the new material revolution, so a number of space factories dedicated to processing materials, has been established, the current number of as many as eighteen, of which Huaxia accounted for more than half, and the results achieved are also the most, although in terms of cost, The processing of these space materials is very expensive, the cheapest are more than 10,000 yuan per kilogram, and the transportation + processing fee is about 10 yuan per gram, which is more than twice as expensive as the precious metal silver.

The development of the space factory industry has finally officially announced that the era of large-scale use and development of space has arrived.

In the torrent of this era, Xu Yuan's magical group is naturally unwilling to miss this outlet, and also wants to get a piece of the pie.

It's just that the current magic group, just as an investor, with a lot of money, to invest in those strong private aerospace companies, buy a lot of stocks, become a shareholder of these companies, in addition to the relevant technology patents, Xu Yuan can also get a copy, even if it does not mean that it can be used directly, but if Xu Yuan magic group, in the future, will also go directly into space, many patented technologies, you can do not have to pay fees, can be used for free, this is equivalent to occupying the opportunity, It has an advantage that others don't have.

What's more, if you put it on the side of the Ming universe, you don't need any patents from the modern society at all, just copy and borrow it directly, and you don't have to worry about any intellectual property disputes, which is another benefit brought by Xu Yuan's investment in the space industry.

In space, in addition to building space factories for the development of material processing and purification industries, even if each factory can only provide 100 tons of new materials a year, the production capacity is quite low, but the economic benefits brought are also hundreds of billions per year, and it is not too difficult to increase to trillions in the future.

But the most promising industry with very rich returns is not space factories, but space mining!

As long as the space meteorites in the universe are picked out of those metal meteorites, rare mineral meteorites, and gold, silver and copper, etc., selected out, purified and processed, and sent back to the earth by using some cheap return capsules, such as gold, according to the current price of five or six hundred yuan per gram of gold, as long as the amount of one ton is sent back to the ground, it is five or six billion income, although compared with the cost, this is not necessarily profitable, but at least it can offset most of the cost, if the cost of space mining is reduced in the future, and then reduced. At that time, space mining was profitable and even profitable, and the endless space of the universe was a new mining farm for human beings, even if this space was too huge and consumed more time and energy, but as long as the problem of whether it could be solved or not, it would be a problem of fast efficiency, and the latter was far easier to solve than the former.

Xu Yuan also went to check some information and found that in the solar system, the number of meteorites with a diameter of more than 100 meters is more than one million, of which there will be no less than 100,000 of them with mining value, and a very few of them with huge mining value are also tens of thousands.

Above.

It is the development of modern society in the past year.

To sum up in one sentence: that is, it is moving towards the sea of stars, and has made certain achievements, and it is still accelerating its development, and even falling into a feverish atmosphere, everyone is full of optimism and hope for the future, hedonism is beginning to appear, people tend to think that resources are about to be unlimited, a little extravagant and wasteful, there is no big problem, that is, the official level of the state, there is less call for thrift or anything, but began to encourage consumption, suggesting that people reduce savings, pay more attention to the excitement of life.

At least 50 million people have participated in the entertainment industry, becoming one of the industries with the largest number of employed people, such as animation, today's creators, with the help of artificial intelligence technology, as long as they draw some character pictures, and then they can write stories around the characters, and then let artificial intelligence generate, comics, animation, etc., as long as one person, can create a work, the efficiency is unimaginable, The labor intensity of the individual has been reduced by more than 95%, and the threshold for becoming a creator has been greatly reduced.

All in all, in such a new era, no matter what it is, it can be described by a fast word, and the economic growth rate is also very exaggerated.
