Chapter 82 Come again?
Manager's office at Xinghai headquarters.
Fan Ren sat on the sofa, and Jin Qiaoying looked at him, her big eyes full of disbelief.
Listen!
What is he saying?
"We are planning to go mining on the moon!"
Fan Ren laughed awkwardly. He also felt that what he said was a bit too far-fetched for Jin Qiaoying.
Half a month ago, we were still thinking about nuclear fusion, but now we are thinking about mining on the moon before we have even completed nuclear fusion.
Although Li Jiandong had already mentioned this matter, Jin Qiaoying only just found out about it.
"That's right. You've seen Tritanium. Due to environmental factors, the yield of its original ore on Earth is extremely low, and there is no possibility of large-scale industrial use. On the moon, however, this ore is everywhere."
“But this is a bit unrealistic, isn’t it?”
Jin Qiaoying searched her mind but couldn't find any other words to describe his plan.
At present, human development of the moon is only limited to collecting samples and traveling back and forth between the Earth and the Moon. Fan Ren wanted to invest the company's recently accumulated profits in a lunar mining project right away. She thought Fan Ren was crazy.
"Mr. Jin, the significance of tri-titanium alloy to us is not only the last link in the research and development of nuclear fusion, but also the ultimate solution to the countless problems caused by material strength that currently plague human industrial development."
Fan Ren explained, and quickly added: "It's very important!"
Jin Qiaoying rubbed her forehead with her slender, fair hands.
She had already read the information about tri-titanium alloy, and was well aware of the importance of this material to the future of human industry, but no matter how to say it, she still found it difficult to accept the project of lunar mining all of a sudden.
Just then, Fan Ren's phone rang.
"Director Li from the Ministry of Industry," he waved his cell phone to indicate, and then answered the call without avoiding Jin Qiaoying.
"Hello, Commander Li."
"Boss Fan, there is indeed tri-titanium alloy in the lunar soil, right?"
Fan Ren's mouth curled up slightly, and he replied, "Indeed, and the content is extremely high. Commander Li, this means that it may be extremely widely distributed on the moon, and because the moon's surface has been hit by meteorites for a long time, the surface is highly sandy, and the difficulty of mining is extremely low."
He said this not only to Chief Li, but also to Jin Qiaoying.
Fan Ren knew how much of an impact the plan he brought to her today had on her. Although he had absolute controlling rights in the company, he also had the right to make decisions on major matters.
But he and Jin Qiaoying have always had a very good relationship, and he does not want to use this power to avoid causing conflicts between them.
Jin Qiaoying rolled her eyes at him and gradually came to her senses.
"Mr. Fan, I called you to tell you about this. Currently, the amount of minerals that can be mined in South Australia is very small, and after many communications with them, they still refuse to agree to make concessions on the price."
Fan Ren glanced at Jin Qiaoying with a look of pity on his face. He asked, "Commander Li, is there no other way?"
Jin Qiaoying on the opposite side couldn't sit still after hearing this. Did he really coax her little girl?
She rubbed her forehead, looked at Fan Ren unhappily, and could only nod heavily.
Seeing this, Fan Ren asked himself, "Then we can only focus on the moon."
His face turned serious.
"Director Li, after the decision of General Manager Jin and I, Xinghai Technology has decided to carry out aerospace engineering projects."
"Don't be impatient, just listen to me." Fan Ren was interrupted by Chief Li.
“I have reported this matter to Mr. Ye. Mr. Ye did not object at the time, but only told me to get the mine that South Australia has explored first. However, the current situation is that South Australia is unwilling to give in.
I was thinking, if you have time, come to Kyoto and give me a report at Ouchi."
Fan Ren began to figure out what was going on. There was something else Chief Li was saying. Was he trying to drag him along to teach Mr. Ye?
On second thought, it is true.
At present, Daxia Aerospace is in a state of steady development. If we want to mine from the moon according to his requirements, it will take an unknown amount of time.
This is mainly because the moon currently has very little economic significance for humans.
As the head of the Ministry of Industry, Chief Li attaches great importance to technological development. That is why he has the same idea as Fan Ren and knows that the emergence of tri-titanium alloy is an important material for future industrial development.
Now, after the discovery of trititanium alloy in the lunar soil, there are tangible economic benefits.
Since Daxia now has the strength, and Xinghai is willing to invest in this area, why not speed up the pace?
Thinking of this, he agreed and said, "Okay, I'll leave for Kyoto immediately, and I'll leave the rest to you to arrange."
The two of them didn't have any further conversation and just hung up the phone.
Jin Qiaoying didn't give Fanren a chance to speak, and said directly: "Of the 1000 billion compensation for Sanxin, 400 billion was used as investment in the chip factory. Adding the various incomes during this period, the total is currently about 800 billion."
There was surprise in Fan Ren's eyes. He really didn't expect that in just a few months, Xinghai would earn 200 billion in revenue.
Taking the investment in the third phase of the Earth-Moon Project as an example, which is no more than 800 billion yuan, the billion yuan is not absolutely enough, but it is almost enough.
It is also foreseeable that with the completion of the mechanized automated factory and the greatly improved chip production capacity, Xinghai's revenue will definitely surge.
In this way, lunar mining no longer has any worries from a financial perspective.
Fan Ren was grateful from the bottom of his heart to the general manager who managed Xinghai in an orderly manner. He nodded and said, "Don't worry, don't you trust me?"
Hearing this, Jin Qiaoying gave him a charming look with her phoenix eyes.
"Just stop bothering me."
Fan Ren chuckled and did not refute.
South Australia Kingdom, capital.
"What does Daxia say?"
"Mr. President, after you set the price, they asked for a price reduction, but there has been no response in the past two days."
"Hmph, what does the Metallurgical Laboratory say? Haven't they figured out other uses for the Fanjing Ore yet?"
The subordinate shook his head in embarrassment and said, "It's still the same as before. The strength of the refined product is only slightly stronger than the super-strong aluminum alloy. There are no other discoveries."
President Mohan was displeased when he heard this: "Why did Daxia suddenly mention buying our country's Fanjing Stone? Although they don't have much, they should have some, right?"
The subordinate didn't answer, so he didn't care and continued, "According to my understanding of Daxia, they must have discovered other uses for the Fanjing Stone, otherwise they wouldn't have asked us to buy all of our country's Fanjing Stone reserves."
"Yes, President, you are wise. Please give me some time. I will have my subordinates research the uses of this ore at all costs as soon as possible."
The subordinate bowed his head and asked again, "So Daxia is temporarily?"
"Well, we can just hold off for now. Whether it's Fanjing Stone or other minerals, the pricing must be firmly in our hands. Let the mineral department prepare to increase the price of our exported ore by 2% starting tomorrow. You can contact Daxia and use this condition to exchange for the specific use of Fanjing Stone."
"Yes, the president is wise."
The subordinate's face was full of flattery, and he retreated with his body hunched.
