The entire outer space summit lasted two days, but Jiang Chen spent a whole week in Canberra. Half of the time was in meetings, four days were for business talks, and two days were for Aisha to wander around Canberra to appreciate the customs of Australia.
However, there hasn't been much time to visit recently. Many shops in Canberra are temporarily closed for this high-level summit.
The results of this summit are quite amazing. It can even be said that in a sense, it is beyond Jiang Chen's expectations. Originally, he thought that if he put forward such a harsh cooperation framework without seeing any profit, he should not have many people working with him. However, this is not the case.
The first country that expressed willingness to cooperate is the Moro Kingdom, after all, it is the number one brother of the new country. But Jiang Chen was very skeptical that Santos did not understand what a space elevator was. In addition, Malay, Thailand, New Zealand, Madagascar, ******, and some small African countries have all accepted the cooperation framework proposed by Xinghuan Trade.
After a period of research, China and Russia have also expressed their willingness to accept the cooperation framework proposed by Xinghuan Trading.
The representative of Hua Guo proposed to build a microgravity laboratory for the Institute of Mechanics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences to carry out two-phase flow, microgravity combustion, gas phase epitaxy, and metal alloy nucleation for the Institute of Mechanics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences A total of 51 national-level scientific research projects, such as supercooling, were priced at S $ 1.57 billion.
The conditions for building a microgravity laboratory on the ground are quite difficult, and the United States has been trying to prevent China from participating in the International Space Station project, so that China ’s microgravity experiment can only find a way out on the surface, after all, the cost of maintaining a large space station alone It is too expensive.
In order to simulate the gravity-free environment in the experiment, the solution of China is to design a tall tower to simulate the microgravity environment through free fall. In the National Microgravity Laboratory, which was officially approved in 1995, the design of the 100-meter falling tower, in which the microgravity time of the drop system has reached 3.5s, and the microgravity time of the drop tube system is 3.26s, has been worldwide. It belongs to the top level.
This result is proud enough, but also very frustrating, because everything is forced.
After the summit, the first thing the representative of Hua Guo found Jiang Chen was to propose the establishment of a microgravity laboratory on the Star City, and he made a offer of S $ 1.07 billion. Converted into RMB, this is a huge sum of more than 7 billion yuan. But compared to the huge tens of billions of dollars to build a space station alone, and the unimaginable maintenance costs, this money is nothing.
Since Huaguo is the first country to reach cooperation with Xinghuan Trading on the space elevator, the cooperation document of the microgravity laboratory signed with China has also become a blueprint for subsequent negotiations with other parties.
Later, Russia also reached an agreement with Xinghuan Trading, investing S $ 950 million to build a relatively small microgravity laboratory in the non-gravity section of Xinghuan City, which has replaced the original expansion of the Russian space area of the International Space Station. the plan of.
However, the big part of the income is not these, and Jiang Chen really made a lot of money or he came to the private enterprise.
Originally, space is still an unprecedented thing for ordinary people. If it is not a rich man, I am afraid that only by signing the "deed of sale" of the spaceX Mars plan and sitting on a one-way spacecraft to Mars, will I have the opportunity to realize my dream of spaceflight.
But now, things seem to be turning around.
Xinghuan Trading announced the fare of the space elevator on the official website. The pre-tax base price of adult fares is only S $ 1500! Converted into soft sister currency will be more than 10,000, even cheaper than a ticket from Shanghai International Airport to New York in the peak season!
It's crazy!
As if overnight, only rich people can afford to spend more than 10 million in space tourism, and it has become a general overseas trip that even ordinary people can afford.
After SpaceX, the second company that found Jiang Chen was not a space company. The business he operated was not even related to spaceflight, but a hotel chain.
The company looking for Shang Jiangchen is the famous Hilton Group. As early as the development of tourism projects in the new country, the two sides have established a good cooperative relationship, aiming at the tourism prospects brought by the space elevator.
Almost immediately after the UN summit, Hilton Group President Christopher Naseta found Jiang Chen and opened the invitation to cooperate.
"Mr. Jiang Chen, we are quite optimistic about the tourism prospects of space elevators. We have studied the information about space elevators published by you. A space-themed hotel with a total area of 24,000-30000 square meters. "
The reason why the cost of the space station is expensive is partly because of the expensive freight. After the completion of the Space Elevator, the price of synchronous orbit construction is no longer the same. Taking the International Space Station, which costs 50 billion US dollars, as an example, if the Star Ring Trade wants to build an identical one, the cost may be less than one percent. If you want to expand the equivalent living area in the Star City, the cost can even be compressed to within 100 million US dollars.
Xinghuan City is located on the synchronous orbit, and the available development area is only a lot more than Qi Penglai City. If it was a year ago, the Hilton Hotel wanted to build a space-themed hotel with a living area of more than 10,000 square meters on the synchronous orbit. Selling them all would not be able to afford that price.
But now, for only S $ 1.3 billion, they can win the project.
However, before signing the contract, there is still a question that needs to be clarified.
That is the opinion of the US government.
Hilton Group is an American company, but the United States has not made any statement on whether to accept the cooperation framework of Xinghuan Trading. Jiang Chendao didn't have any opinions about the Hilton Hotel's intention to settle in the Star City, but if the US Department of Commerce made trouble, he had some Hilton Group.
After listening to Jiang Chen ’s concerns, Mr. Naseta smiled and said indifferently: “Mr. Jiang is worried, we are also multinational corporations, and even the White House ca n’t stop us from making money. We are in Coro Registered as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Hilton Group, the laws of the United States can only be governed by Hawaii, which has no impact on our cooperation. "
After hearing this sentence, Jiang Chen smiled and extended his right hand.
"Wish us a happy cooperation."
As soon as he grasped Jiang Chen's right hand, Mr. Naseta shook it vigorously.
"Happy cooperation!"
The contract was signed on the day before Jiang Chen returned to the new country.
In the early morning Naseta brought her secretary to the door and delivered the contract to Jiang Chen in person.
The contents of the contract have been received by Jiang Chen in electronic form and sent back to Xinghuan Trading Headquarters. The professional lawyer team conducted three rounds of review. After getting the paper contract, Jiang Chen just scanned it with his watch. After comparing and confirming that it was the same as the electronic version of the contract, he picked up the pen and signed his name.
After the contract was signed, Christopher Naseta warmly invited Jiang Chen to have a meal together, and Jiang Chen accepted his invitation with pleasure.
Just signed a billion-dollar investment project, Naseta is naturally very enthusiastic. This thing about human relations can be eaten everywhere, especially for the president of a large group like him, who can decide that he will continue to sit in this position, is not a simple ability to a large extent, but more important is the network resources he masters .
Xiang Jiangchen's "super-quality customers" are naturally the objects of his strong friendship.
After the dinner, Christopher Nasetasser gave Jiang Chen a black diamond card.
According to Naseta, the honor of this black diamond card is even higher than the diamond card, and it is not publicly issued at all. Only important customers of the Hilton Hotel can get one. Customers holding this black diamond card can enjoy the treatment of staying in the Presidential Suite by swiping the counter at any Hilton hotel in the world. Even if there is no listing, they can find a way to arrange it for you. As for free meals, afternoon tea or something, I don't need to mention it.
After accepting the black diamond card, Jiang Chen said goodbye to Naseta and returned to the hotel where she stayed.
After bathing, I wandered into bed, clicked on the holographic screen of the watch, and browsed the webpage.
To board the plane tomorrow and return to the new country.
Just as he yawned and was about to go to bed early, a video of weekly traffic breaking through the sky attracted his attention. The video was uploaded a week ago, and it happened to be the first opening ceremony of the space elevator passenger orbit ... (to be continued.)
