Chapter 221 Kilometer-level wireless power transmission, 10 billion investment!

03-02, Mountain City, BS District.

"Professor Zhang, welcome!"

The warm and hearty reception staff shook hands with Zhang Xingyang and said.

This is a tall hot girl who is about 1.75 meters tall.

After a brief and polite exchange between the two sides, they got to the point.

Three months ago, under the leadership of Zhang Xingyang, the world's first wireless power transmission technology that can be used in the field was finally developed.

In addition, the main use of gallium nitride can be large-scale refining in China, this advanced semiconductor.

In a short period of time, it has attracted many regions that are interested in the development of high and new technology and want to vigorously support the development.

So, there was this expedition.

"We plan to build a science and technology industrial park covering an area of 300 acres here."

The receptionist pointed to a large open space in front of him and introduced it to the group of the Rocket Research Institute.

"Among them, the core experimental park covers an area of about 33 acres, including a comprehensive laboratory building for space solar power stations and an advanced semiconductor experimental center, which is used to study solar wireless transmission."

"In addition, there are 106 acres of test area, which will be used to build facilities such as the lift-off test site and the high-altitude balloon platform commissioning site."

In the initial plan for space solar energy, there will be no direct construction of solar power plants in outer space, and the first solar power plants will be built in the stratosphere.

The earth's atmospheric activity is in the troposphere, and the stratosphere is not affected by bad weather, and power generation activities can be carried out as long as it is daytime.

Power generation is mainly carried out through high-altitude balloons and drones, which are then transmitted back to the ground through microwaves and connected to the grid through receiving stations.

"In addition, on the periphery of the park, we will build a space breeding area and a science and education center."

Although it is still almost a wasteland, the description of the reception staff still makes everyone more impressed with their plan.

"If you have any questions, you can ask me, and I will answer what I know."

After introducing their plans for this high-tech industrial park, the reception staff said generously.

When she introduced it just now, Zhang Xingyang looked around.

The mountain town is a mountainous city with few plain areas.

Even the planned site of this industrial park is no exception.

On the north and south sides, there are two hillsides that are not too high.

This inevitably raises some concerns.

"The mountain city is rainy in summer, and the possibility of landslides, have you considered it?" Zhang Xingyang first asked a question that the other party did not expect.

Before that, they thought of people from the research institute and might ask questions about investment or talent introduction.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Xingyang took the lead in asking the question of natural disasters.

"This" The reception staff was stunned for a moment, and then thought about his life experience over the years and said:

"There are some landslides after heavy rains in the mountain town every year, but it probably won't happen here."

"The natural conditions here are better, and the soil and water conservation are better."

After Zhang Xingyang listened, he didn't say anything, but emphasized:

"When we are building a park, we must strengthen disaster prevention."

"Especially in terms of preventing landslides, mudslides, earthquakes, and so on."

The mountain city is located on the Longmenshan earthquake zone, and there have been many powerful earthquakes of more than 7.0 on the Richter scale in history, causing great damage.

This is also a factor that Zhang Xingyang has to consider.

"We will definitely strengthen this work when we carry out construction in the future." Qin Yue nodded and agreed, not thinking too much.

She wouldn't have known that Zhang Xingyang's thoughts had drifted to the earthquake that shocked the world a few years later.

At that time, there is still a long time, and Zhang Xingyang still has time to increase his influence, and when the time comes, he will find a way to let everyone avoid this tragic natural disaster.

"How much can you afford to invest in the construction?"

While Zhang Xingyang was still thinking about the earthquake, Liang Yi asked about the economy.

Because whether it is the raw material production of gallium nitride or the production of gallium nitride diodes, it is actually a very cutting-edge technology.

The R&D funds required are also very large.

You must know that after 20 years, these technologies are still high-tech, and there are not many countries in the world that can play with them.

"For the construction of the first phase of the industrial park, we plan to invest 300 million.

It is mainly used for the construction of the core area of the park, the construction of three links and one level, and the construction of the experimental building. ”

Qin Yue had also done a lot of homework before this, and he was also handy about these prepared contents.

"This aspect will be fully borne by our side, and as for the total investment, we plan to reach 3 billion yuan."

The expectations of this plan are not insignificant.

Not only has hundreds of acres of land been taken out, but three billion yuan will be invested to support this project.

Of course, Liang Yi was not surprised by the other party's generosity, and the financial budget he now carries out every year, including the many factories, enterprises, etc. under the research institute, has reached tens of billions!

Moreover, the institute will also invest a lot of money in the whole project.

"Please rest assured that we have strong confidence in the project and will definitely carry it out."

Qin Yue saw the hesitation in Liang Yi's expression and assured.

In fact, if it were not for the country's advocacy for the development of local high-tech industries.

Liang Yi did not want to put the first pilot of this project above the local level.

The institute is not short of money or people, and is fully capable of developing and perfecting this technology on its own.

And at the local level, there is also the risk of possible political death.

At that time, what if the other party does not continue to invest, even if Zhang Xingyang does not consider the risks outside these technologies, Liang Yi, as the financial leader of the research institute, must also consider these.

"We attach great importance to the wireless transmission project, and if we reach this cooperation, we will not only invest billions of dollars in the future, but also transfer a large number of patented technologies to the project."

Liang Yi also said how much importance the institute attaches to this cooperation.

If they can reach a cooperation, they tend to set up a new research unit or high-tech company to carry out commercial development.

To this end, technologies including high-purity GaN production technology and GaN diodes are being transferred.

In Liang Yi's heart, these two technologies alone are worth at least tens of billions of dollars.

Therefore, Liang Yi did not attach so much importance to the three billion construction funds proposed by Qin Yue.

But after all, now is not the time to talk about future shares, and Liang Yi didn't say anything about this matter.

After knowing Qin Yue's confidence, he stopped the topic for the time being.

Qin Yue has enough confidence in himself, after all, not everywhere can afford billions of funds to build a high-tech industrial park this year.

You know, this is the year '03 when inflation wasn't that bad.

Although prices have been slowly rising, they have remained largely low.

The monthly salary of ordinary workers is mostly no more than a thousand times!

Three billion is already the largest amount sent by the Shancheng government through gritted teeth.

"Please rest assured that once we reach a cooperation, then we will also invest heavily in the project!"

Zhang Xingyang also assured Qin Yue at this time.

As the dean of the research institute, Zhang Xingyang's words are undoubtedly more weighty and reassuring.

"Then I look forward to the cooperation between the two sides." Qin Yue said after smiling.

This visit, after on-the-spot observations, was followed by the first round of negotiations on the cooperation meeting.

"We plan to build the world's first kilometer-level wireless transmission demonstration power station in the BS area first!"

Zhang Xingyang looked at the PPT on the projector and explained the detailed plan of the institute for wireless power transmission.

"This power station will be composed of three parts."

"The most difficult of these will be high-altitude solar power plants, which generate electricity through long-lasting high-altitude balloons and stratospheric solar drones."

"The second difficulty is the ground-based microwave receiving station, which is used to receive the microwave energy delivered back from high altitudes and then convert it into electrical energy."

"Of course, the high-altitude solar power plant is the focus of our second phase of construction plan."

"The first phase of construction will be a ground-based power station and a ground-based microwave receiving station.

It is used to verify whether the technology of kilometer-level wireless power transmission is mature. ”

In fact, this construction plan is relatively conservative.

In particular, the first phase of the construction plan hardly involves power generation projects.

Instead, the focus is on wireless power transmission.

Focus on verifying the efficiency of long-distance wireless power transmission.

In the second phase of construction, the construction of solar power plants in the stratosphere will begin, and the energy experiment will officially begin.

The third phase of the construction plan is more distant, but it is also more daring.

A large-scale solar power plant will be built in geosynchronous orbit, with more than 2 million square meters of solar panels expected to be built, and it is expected to generate more electricity per year than two Three Gorges hydropower stations.

That is, the annual power generation will exceed 150 billion kilowatt hours.

In the past 02 years, the country's electricity generation capacity was only 1.65 trillion kilowatt hours.

In other words, if this large-scale space solar power plant is completed, it will account for 9% of the country's power generation!

This is just a two-square-kilometer space power station, and with the emptiness of the synchronous orbit, it is not a problem to build dozens or hundreds of space power stations.

"It is expected that by then, 132 million tons of carbon dioxide will be reduced per year, which is equivalent to replacing 48 million tons of standard coal."

Zhang Xingyang finally said to the PPT.

At this time, ecological development is still a relatively advanced concept.

So when Zhang Xingyang finished speaking, it didn't attract everyone's attention.

The focus of attention is mainly on the economic interests of the entire project.

The construction of the third phase of the project, which may take 20 years, is not very ambitious.

But according to the schedule, high-altitude solar power plants that can be realized within five years are also very attractive.

According to Zhang Xingyang's calculations, with an investment of less than 1.5 billion, this plan will probably be realized.

Build a power station with an annual power generation capacity of about 2 billion kWh.

The profit in a year, probably in terms of electricity, is less than 300 million, around 270 million.

Because solar power generation is not like thermal power generation, which consumes coal, the usual maintenance cost is lower.

The main reason is that the investment in the early stage is relatively large.

But according to Zhang Xingyang's algorithm, it will take less than six years to pay for itself.

Judging by the experience of large power plants, this time is simply appalling.

Because the cost recovery cycle of large-scale thermal power stations is basically more than 10 years, and some can even reach 20 years!

Of course, compared to the space power plant plan to generate 150 billion kilowatt hours of electricity per year, this high-altitude solar power station with an annual power generation capacity of only 2 billion kilowatt hours seems to be nothing.

However, compared to high-altitude solar power plants, space power plants are more complex. It doesn't just require tens of billions of dollars in capital investment.

Moreover, considering the daily maintenance of power stations in space, there must be people stationed for a long time, which involves the problem of manned spaceflight, which is not something that they can solve locally.

Therefore, most of the people present still pay more attention to the content of the second phase of the project.

"We invest 3 billion and need to occupy 51 percent of the shares."

Share negotiations are a relatively boring thing, and Zhang Xingyang didn't want to participate in it in the first place.

However, Liang Yi still forced him to participate in this negotiation.

The other party seems to see that Zhang Xingyang is relatively young, and when he comes up, he opens his mouth to ask for a controlling stake.

"Since that's the case, then we will invest 5 billion yuan, and we want 62.5 percent of the shares." Not to mention Zhang Xingyang, even Liang Yi, who often participates in this kind of negotiation, is a little speechless.

If it weren't for the call of the country this time, it would have been impossible for the other party to get such a high-quality project, and the other party would have opened his mouth.

The institute is not one of those units that is not profitable, and after the past few years, whether it is commercial rocket launch orders or in the field of new materials, they have been smooth sailing, with billions of dollars in revenue every year.

Therefore, the other party's move may be able to squeeze those small units, and it may still be successful, but it is basically useless to deal with Zhang Xingyang.

"Don't be angry, don't be angry, he's not sensible."

At this time, Qin Yue, who still had a good relationship with the research institute, came out to play a round.

"In this way, we will invest a total of three billion, how much will you contribute, and how will we do it in proportion?"

In fact, even if the shares are distributed according to the proportion of capital contribution, the research institute still suffers a lot, because in addition to the capital contribution, the research institute also has to transfer a lot of technology.

The value of these technologies is more than 10 billion.

So of course Liang Yi couldn't agree like this, and such a promise was equivalent to a big loss.

"We agree that the shares are distributed according to the capital contribution, but we believe that the technology patents should also be calculated at a discount and included in the proportion of capital contribution."

There was nothing wrong with Liang Yi's statement, so the other party didn't say much.

After a brief discussion, I agreed.

However, as for the specific conversion method, they still hope to be able to negotiate separately.

Obviously, they also don't want to trade in the right to set prices, and the research institute has the final say.

Obviously, there will be several rounds of negotiations between the two sides before the entire project can be fully finalized.

But for Zhang Xingyang, he has seen a glimmer of hope for energy change.

And change is never easy, especially when it involves many vested interest groups.

Those who have the foresight will invest vigorously; Those who have no foresight will naturally spare no effort to suppress it.

In this process, someone will succeed and someone will fail.

It depends on whether Zhang Xingyang can successfully complete the first phase of the kilometer-level wireless transmission plan.

Double the monthly pass, ask for a monthly pass!!
