Technology: Breaking the Global Monopoly

Chapter 2384 Three Major Cooperation Projects

Build a lunar city?

Is this a project that these companies can undertake?

Although everyone is already a top player in the industry, the contrast between commercial competition on the ground and the construction of a lunar city is like asking a fisherman who usually fishes with a small fishing boat to participate in a whale hunting activity.

They are not going to be lifeboats, but to hunt whales.

This……

The professors and academicians from those universities were also a little confused.

The aerospace projects of my own school are basically in cooperation with the Daxia Aerospace Group, which means sending some seeds to the Daxia Space Station for cultivation, or participating in the research and development and manufacturing of some equipment. We can also usually get some "local specialties" such as lunar soil for research and development.

Although they knew what Jiuzhou Xinghai Company had done on the moon in recent years, and some of their students had even become pioneers and lived and worked on the moon for a period of time, Jiuzhou Xinghai Company had never mentioned that they wanted these universities to work together to build a lunar base...

And now it’s also a lunar city project.

Many middle-aged and elderly people with calm faces subconsciously grabbed their seats, looked around the environment and equipment, and felt a conflict between their conscience and their desires.

If Jiuzhou Technology allows them to join but also asks them to keep the technology confidential, should they give up cooperation with Daxia Aerospace Group?

Gu Qing did not have the idea of ​​making these partners choose between the two, nor did he make everyone wait.

After a snap of the fingers, the virtual projection model above the conference table instantly solidified.

Yu Chengdong, Gao Shan and others were stunned by the city modeling that looked like something out of a science fiction movie.

At this moment, Gu Qing was too lazy to explain. "Lu Ban, please tell our partners about the lunar city project planning plan."

"Received. The data file is being retrieved."

“Based on the information collected so far and the results of the experimental project team… our planned lunar city construction project takes minimalism and high-density functional integration as its core concept and adopts a modular self-expanding structural system for construction.

The main body of the city is composed of dome buildings. The underground layer is the core living area, built on lava tubes to achieve the greatest degree of radiation and impact resistance; the semi-underground honeycomb structure of the living cabin group and the arched ecological cabin meet the living needs of different groups of people...

The building base material is made of lunar resources, and the composite structure of lunar soil concrete and titanium alloy frame is printed through 3D printing. The current lunar experimental data obtained shows that it can withstand the 300°C temperature difference between day and night and the impact of small and medium-sized meteorites.

The energy system is supplied by a dual system consisting of solar energy and nuclear energy. The solar ring energy belt laid along the lunar equator can capture eternal sunlight.

Using moon dust to melt "moon glass" and combining it with perovskite materials to make a new type of solar cell, its energy output per unit mass is 100 times that of traditional space photovoltaic panels...

The transportation network adopts the maglev pipeline train solution, which can connect various scientific research stations and living areas... The dome building consists of an inflatable sealed corridor bridge and an ecological vegetation area to form a pedestrian living area. Documents such as "1031YQST12312" and "1032YQDX1235"... provide theoretical support, which can effectively stabilize the psychological state of residents...

The quantum communication hub at the core of the city maintains real-time contact with the Blue Planet through a group of relay satellites, ensuring the external communication capabilities of the first extraterrestrial sustainable city, which can be smoothly upgraded to 7G communication in the future. "

The more detailed Jiuzhou Technology's explanation of artificial intelligence became, the more uneasy the corporate executives, university professors, and academicians present at the scene became.

I don’t know if it’s because he has worked with the researchers of Jiuzhou Technology for too long, but after talking about the project plan, [Lu Ban] started to paint a big picture like an excellent professional manager.

"When the terminator passes over the crater, the central eco-dome will automatically switch to the [morning light mode], and the liquid crystal panels on the outer wall will reorganize the solar spectrum into the morning light on the ground of the blue planet. Residents will run along the spiral trail in the low-gravity environment, and the smart fabrics they wear will monitor the electrical signals of their muscles in real time, and the electromagnetic damping belts on their legs will dynamically compensate for the movement load.

Engineers, wearing magnetic soles, remotely control intelligent robots to work in a safe area next to the construction area...

The 3D printer will use transient laser sintering at 1200°C per second to combine basalt powder and recycled plastic into a structure with a compressive strength of 85MPa..."

There is no need to imagine these scenes in your mind, the virtual projection in front of everyone is already "playing live" for everyone very clearly.

The eyes of several professors have become profound, because they found that there is no problem with the design of these scenes and the feasibility of the equipment. Each item perfectly meets the special physical parameters of the moon, such as gravity that is only one-sixth of the Blue Star, a day and night cycle that is different from the Blue Star, and the use of lunar soil.

Jiuzhou Technology is not just making empty promises to them, but actually demonstrating the projects.

Some people are even wondering whether Jiuzhou Technology is considering the "bad impact" of building a city alone, and therefore makes an exception to allow them to join the project just to make up the numbers?

For other companies, this may be impossible.

But at Jiuzhou Technology, even Yu Chengdong had a similar idea.

Gu Qing still didn't care about the looks from the crowd. He waited for Lu Ban to finish his PPT and gave everyone a few seconds of free time before he spoke: "As you all know, our subsidiary, Jiuzhou Xinghai Company, has built and operated a large base and a small test area on the moon. This city planning plan is a summary of the data we have collected and sorted over the years. Finally, our Jiuzhou Technology engineers worked with the artificial intelligence AI Lu Ban to jointly design the city.

While building a safe, healthy and stable lunar city ecology, the lunar city also preserves the cultural continuity of our human race in the extraterrestrial environment.

For example, there are characteristic cultural walls of dozens of ethnic groups in Daxia, some unique decorations of overseas ethnic groups, and a multi-ethnic characteristic area that can be compared with the Blue Star Ethnic Street in Xinke District...

We carefully studied and summarized the planning and construction experience of Kunlun City, combined with the unique ecological environment of the moon, and spent several years to complete the plan...

Of course, I know that everyone is curious about the specific content of the cooperation project. I will not keep you in suspense here. First of all, I will tell you a premise. All land use rights of the lunar city belong to Jiuzhou Xinghai Company. There is no room for negotiation on this point. The projects that this city can currently provide you with cooperation include the lunar ecosystem construction project, the operation project of the multi-ethnic characteristic area, the lunar city experimental zone cooperation project, and the most important financial cooperation for the lunar city construction and expansion project. "

Yu Chengdong, Gao Shan and others listened very carefully.

After Gu Qing finished speaking, they waited for another ten seconds to make sure that this legendary figure had nothing else to say, and Yu Chengdong immediately raised his hand to signal.

Gu Qing nodded slightly: "Mr. Yu, do you have any questions?"

Hearing his name being called, Yu Chengdong immediately pointed to the second of the three cooperation projects with his right hand and asked, "The Lunar City Experimental Area Cooperation Project. From this demonstration scene and brief introduction, I saw that this area allows us to build our own laboratories and conduct experiments on our own, and your company can undertake the transportation of related experimental materials, right?"

In response to the question raised by Cheng Dong, Gu Qing did not think that the other party was a bit "long-winded", but gave an affirmative reply.

"That's right. In the cooperation project of the lunar city experimental area, all cooperative enterprises, institutions and universities can have their own independent laboratories in this area. Jiuzhou Xinghai Company will provide standard energy, standard water resources, oxygen and some basic materials. At the same time, a certain amount of Blue Star lunar material transportation space will be provided to these laboratories every quarter.

Of course, in addition to these standard treatments, if the laboratory needs more energy, more oxygen or other resources, it only needs to apply in time. Under normal circumstances, it will be processed within seven days. If it is some support that is more difficult to provide, our team of engineers and scientists will study and negotiate to provide a solution.

However, everyone knows that the environment of the lunar city must be relatively harsh in the early stages, so it is impossible to satisfy all wishes, such as airlifting king crabs, abalone and other ingredients from the Blue Star for researchers to taste and breed.

Well, that’s all possible.”

Hmm? (⊙o⊙)…

Ah? Σ(⊙▽⊙“a?

Gao Shan, president of Xiaxin Technology, was suddenly stunned. Wasting precious transportation resources to send king crabs and abalone to the researchers to satisfy their cravings?

Is this really possible?

Gu Qing saw everyone's surprised looks, but nodded seriously.

"That's right. As long as it is not a prohibited item that cannot be transported and has passed the review of Jiuzhou Xinghai Company, it can be transported. After all, free space is a benefit we give to our partners. The right to choose has been given to our partners, and we will no longer have too much control.

Even sending durian to the lunar test area is possible. In fact, we have already done something similar, transporting smoked bacon, sausage, Xuanwei ham, and spicy oil from their hometowns to the adventurers at our lunar base.

After all, we can't really let everyone eat space meals all the time at the lunar base. Only with a good appetite can we have good work efficiency.

This is how we do it on the ground, and it is the same on the moon."

When Gu Qing was talking about this, some professors were already thinking about whether they could send themselves to the moon to conduct experiments after their school cooperated with Jiuzhou Technology.

Because in their opinion, there are many variables that the ground environment of the blue planet can no longer provide. If they are placed on the moon, with so many lunar resources, it is possible that several important projects that they have been thinking about may be able to make further progress, or even directly get the optimal solution!

"Mr. Gu, I want to know the differences between these three cooperation projects and the corresponding resources we need to invest?" Not far away, a middle-aged and elderly man with a rather calm look suddenly asked a question.

Gu Qing looked at the serious expression of the chairman of Daxia Petrochemical Group and nodded.

"The lunar ecosystem construction project and the operation project of the multi-ethnic characteristic area are inclined towards commercial operation cooperation. For some regional buildings in the ecosystem, the partners have the right to customize the design. As long as they pass the review, they can even control our engineering robots to carry out remote construction. At the same time, for some commercial shops and office buildings, they can also enjoy limited-term low rent treatment. Generally speaking, after the lease period expires, the holding partner will be given priority.

The land and building property rights of the lunar city belong to Jiuzhou Xinghai Company, but the usage rights are different. It is similar to the design of our Kunlun City. I think everyone should understand this, right?

Therefore, depending on the size of the area, the scale of the building, and the commercial planning application, the required funds and other resource support will also be different. If we make an unscientific analogy, it is roughly that in this area, the partner has to spend 100 million Xia Yuan to get the priority use right of about one square meter in the building. If it is to design a building, it must provide drawings and then be reviewed..."

Inside the suite, one square meter, 100 million Xia Yuan! ?

When some people first heard this price, they thought it was outrageous.

But then after a discount, 100 million Xia Yuan could buy a 100-square-meter suite on the moon. This seemed not only not expensive, but also very cheap!

Gu Qing noticed some people's flickering eyes, and in order to give everyone a reasonable expectation, he explained: "This is just an unscientific analogy, but in fact, each planning scheme submitted will have different investment requirements, some may be more money, and some may be more important resources such as rare earths and gold.

After all, to build such a large-scale, expandable technology city on the moon, the resources needed are definitely not something that can be measured in money like ordinary commercial cooperation."

Faced with Gu Qing's explanation, everyone nodded subconsciously.

Of course they could accept this explanation, and they were thinking in their hearts that even if they could get a 100-square-meter suite for 200 million yuan, it would be a sure profit.

After all, this is the moon, so you can use the building as your company's office! You can hang up a signboard of "Moon Headquarters" and even carry out many commercial projects.

When the population of the lunar city increases in the future, the real estate in this core area will be extremely valuable and will definitely have greater appreciation potential than real estate in core cities such as New York and Yanjing.

Gu Qing continued to explain the technology: "The cooperation project of the lunar city test area depends on the specific type of laboratory you apply for, what experiments you usually do, how much energy we need to provide, and how much waste we need to process. There is not only investment in laboratory construction, but also subsequent maintenance investment. This is also a plan for each project, and the investment requirements will be higher."
