Chapter 1176 Stimulation
In the conference room, Yuan Zhao proudly sat down face to face with the representative of the sanctuary, or Ridu Gulen, the prime minister of the sanctuary.
Yuan Zhao didn't have any nonsense, he had already said the polite words before, and now in the conference room, he went directly to the topic. Yuan Zhao took out a form and said, "Satellite pricing is here. Rocket transportation prices are also here."
As a result, the data of Ridu Guleng looked up.
The first is satellites. The main body of the satellite is only an empty shell, and it costs 500 million yuan. Of course, it includes the basic energy system, etc., but it has none of the functions.
In addition, it includes mobile phone voice communication, network communication, picture and video conversion technology, positioning technology, tracking technology, satellite interconnection technology; and camera functions, including normal light photography, infrared remote sensing, aura remote sensing, master remote sensing technology and so on.
There are dozens of items, and the minimum quotation for each item is 20 million taels of gold; among them, the relatively advanced infrared remote sensing technology, aura remote sensing technology, aircraft/speeding car/missile navigation technology, the asking price is as high as 500 million taels of gold each.
The second is the rocket, which is actually calculated in terms of 'kilograms'. The first weight is 50 kilograms, 800 million taels of gold; in addition, for each additional kilogram, 20 million taels of gold will be charged; if it is less than one kilogram, it will be calculated as one kilogram, even if it exceeds one gram.
Also, the launch distance of the rocket should also be calculated. The rocket will take off from the East China Sea of Shangguo, which means that different countries need different distances if they want to hang their own customized satellites above their heads.
Jiuchongtian Group provides a basic starting distance of 10,000 kilometers; if it exceeds 10,000 kilometers but is within 100,000 kilometers, it will charge 1,000 taels of gold for each kilometer, and if it is less than one kilometer, it will be calculated as one kilometer.
More than 100,000 kilometers, but within a million kilometers, charge 2,000 taels of gold per kilometer. For more than one million kilometers, five thousand taels of gold will be charged per kilometer.
Finally there are additional conditions:
If the rocket launch fails in Shangguo, the Jiuzhongtian Group will only bear half of the direct losses.
If the customer specifies the launch location and the rocket fails to launch, Jiuzhongtian Group will not bear any responsibility.
After reading these conditions, Ridu Gulen also took a deep breath: "What a harsh condition!"
"Of course!" Yuan Zhao did not evade, "Rocket is the pearl of all science and technology, and its launch is full of risks. From the ground, relying entirely on the power of machines to send the target to the outer sky, this is the history of the fairyland and even the sanctuary. The greatest innovation ever. There is no guarantee of 100% success, which is normal."
Yes, it is indeed normal! For such a serious matter as ascension, the success rate is pitifully low—even if there is no blockage of the ascension channel.
But even if Yuan Zhao explained "normal", the cost of the rocket launch is not a small number.
Ridu Guleng looked at the back, and there are several "packages":
Package 1, basic (1.3 billion taels of gold) + 2 sets of voice communication modules (0.4 billion) + 1 set of image modules (0.5 billion) + 1 set of satellite camera modules (200 million), totaling 1.59 billion taels of gold.
The overall quality is controlled within 30 kg, and there is no need to increase the cost of the rocket load. This package can meet the basic military needs of a country.
Note: If you choose the recommended package, you will get a 1% discount on the design fee and 1 month of design time.
A group of voice communication modules can handle 100,000 people's "simultaneous" communication, and can establish contact with up to 5 million people.
One set of image modules can process 20,000 standard-sized pictures per minute; see the relevant information of Shangguo for details on picture standards.
A set of satellite camera modules can take 10 full-frame ground pictures per minute.
Package 2, basic (1.3 billion taels of gold) + 5 sets of communication modules (100 million) + 2 sets of image modules (0.5 billion) + 2 sets of network modules (100 million), and an additional energy module (250 million), total 1.8 billion taels of gold.
The overall quality is controlled within 49 kg, and there is no need to increase the rocket load cost. This package can meet the needs of information service providers.
Note: If you choose the recommended package, you will get a 1% discount on the design fee and 1 month of design time.
1 group of network modules can bear the demand of 100,000 people downloading at the same time.
1 energy module, which can continuously supply energy for the satellite for 20 years.
Package 3...
Looking at the Ridu Guleng one by one, there are many packages that look very good, and the price is also "good". But Ridu Gulen keenly found that there seemed to be many "strange" things in it.
"What kind of energy module is this, and it costs 250 million taels of gold? Even fairy stones don't cost that much!"
"But the fairy stone can't support 20 years of energy consumption!" Yuan Zhao smiled confidently, "The satellite is in the sky, there is no air, no aura, not even evil spirit and strong wind. Therefore, all the energy consumption of the satellite , must be provided through this energy module.”
"Then can we remove the energy module and use spirit stones or even fairy stones for energy?"
"In principle, this is feasible. But there is one thing, once the satellite is hung in the sky so high, once something goes wrong, based on the current technology, it is basically impossible to repair it, let alone replace the energy.
If you still insist on changing the fairy stone, etc., there is naturally no problem. Even satellites, you can also design your own, we only provide launch missions.
We are just a business group, we just provide customers with satisfactory products and services; as a customer, you have the right to choose and customize your own services. "
Ridu Gulen understood that this package is not mandatory; moreover, satellites can also be designed by themselves. But then Ridu Guleng's eyes brightened: "Can you sell these satellite modules separately?"
"Of course!" Yuan Zhao gave an affirmative answer, "Since it is listed as a commodity, it can be sold of course. But there is one thing, these commodities are quite special, and I will not explain how special they are.
Therefore, these products do not support returns; only paid after-sales service is supported.
The transactions of these commodities must be verified in person to confirm that there is no problem, and the goods will be delivered at the same time, and there will be no credit or loan. In addition, all goods leaving the merchant country will be charged a 10% tariff by the country. "
Ridu Guleng closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, and finally made a decision: "I want a package 1, and all the other modules, give me a copy, and I will take it away."
"No problem. The prices of all the modules are here. There are 28 items in total, totaling 7.6 billion yuan. Among them, infrared remote sensing technology and aura remote sensing technology are all very expensive."
"Understood!" Ridu Gulen was a little excited. The best technology of the Shang Kingdom is about to be obtained! What is money, spend what you have to spend!
Yuan Zhao drew the bill in a calm manner, and then said: "The satellite launch problem, we can't reach the sanctuary from the outer sky for the time being, so we can only launch rockets from the sanctuary.
To launch rockets outside the country, we need to conduct on-site surveys and use aerospace carriers to transport the launch platform. This process takes about two months and costs an additional 120 million taels of gold.
Excluding incentives and taxation, a total of 10.22351 billion taels of gold will be paid in one lump sum. "
"Okay!" Ridu Gulen gritted his teeth and paid. Although I know that this price is a rip off, but... there is no way, this is the only one that sells these technologies to the outside world; Shangguo and other countries do not sell them to the outside world.
Soon, Yuan Zhao held a press conference and announced the first order on the rocket. When the news spread, there was another panic! One order is more than 10 billion! Although there are taxes in it, the figures are still blinding!
Especially Zhang Xianzhang of Pengcheng Wanli Group felt the deepest. He was named and criticized at the annual meeting, but the current actions of the Jiuchongtian Group can be regarded as confirming the words of King Xian.
With the completion of this order, the Jiuzhongtian Group has become the group with the largest capital force and the most influential group in Shangguo. The stock of Jiuzhongtian Group skyrocketed at a rocket speed.
Stimulated by this, Shangguo's domestic enterprise groups began to transform ahead of schedule, and a large number of enterprises began to invest capital and research technology. Given that the country has a half-year protection period for Greenwood Investment Bank, and there is still one month to unseal it, other capital tycoons cannot register as "investment banks" for the time being. But it doesn't mean that these capital predators have no choice.
They set up private banks, first lending money to promising companies, etc., and when the protection period passes, the loans together with the interest will be turned into investments. In this way, these capital tycoons have also made a lot of money.
It is conceivable that there are not many capital predators waiting to register as "investment banks", and therefore, the capital market of Shangguo will be calmed down a little. The country of Shang fell into a kind of calm before the storm.
