Chapter 76 Huaguo Sun
After Say's plan was passed, the nine council members established the "Supreme Council of State-owned Space Construction Assets of the Planetary Defense Council", which currently has dozens of large state-owned space construction enterprises.

Several of them are even branches of the aerospace departments of major countries. The purpose of these state-owned enterprises is to carry out infrastructure construction, but to carry out engineering in space.

There were too many of these things, and it was impossible for Say to take care of them, so she simply did not intervene, but even though she did not take the initiative to intervene, the chairman of the PDC Space Assets Council found her.

Because the council found a crucial problem, that is, the salary of space workers is too high, and everyone can't afford it.

"The average annual salary of an ordinary space worker is more than one million yuan?" After listening to the chairman's report, Say was taken aback.

Say knew that after the earth-moon route was opened, Huaguo directly linked its currency to electricity and energy. In theory, electricity could be exchanged for renminbi at the bank, and vice versa.

Therefore, the circulation of world currency changes with the amount of power generation, and the simultaneous growth of productivity and currency issuance has been achieved. Therefore, there has been basically no inflation in the following ten years.

Therefore, the million yuan now is not much different from the million yuan ten years ago. It is an astronomical sum, enough to buy a house in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou within ten years.

Not to mention private enterprises, the governments and PDCs of various countries cannot afford such a heavy consumption, and the high labor costs strictly restrict space development.

"Yes, in modern commercial spaceflight, the annual salary of regular astronauts is more than one million yuan. Even if there is a space elevator, it only saves transportation costs."

"Our preliminary plan is to build a million-person space city above the space elevator, as well as hundreds of surrounding space stations and microgravity factories, as well as the Huaguo Sun. The labor force used in it is in the six figures."

"I know that the Huaguo Sun is a large reflector, but what is it responsible for?" Say interrupted the director curiously.

"It is a super-large-scale project to transform the ecology of the country. It is to change the local climate by reflecting sunlight to the earth in a synchronous orbit. The most notable thing is to make rain fall in the arid desert area."

"This is a good thing. It must be built quickly." Sai nodded. With the unscrupulous development of the space military industry, the earth has been polluted like a big garbage dump, and various extreme climates and natural disasters are endless. .

If it weren't for her fourth agricultural revolution plan to alleviate the food problem, and the large infrastructure plan and the Nanfu plan to alleviate the problem of overcapacity, human beings are estimated to have entered a big trough.

So if the Huaguo sun is used to transform the earth's environment, it may be a good thing for the development of human civilization.

"It's good, but it's too expensive. Huaguo Sun is a space building with a high degree of automation, but it still requires a four-figure labor force, including engineers to maintain it."

"Considering the recently promulgated space labor protection law, Huaguo Sun will only use more labor, and no company can make this loss-making business." The chairman explained.

"Then it won't work. The labor cost must be reduced!" Sai shook her head. Her ultimate goal is to transfer the center of human beings to space. How could she engage in such a loss-making business.

"Astronauts are social elites. They have doctorates and have spent thousands of hours on high-performance fighter jets, and their wages cannot be reduced." The chairman explained.

"Haven't we been talking about labor? Why use astronauts? Astronauts are scientists who are responsible for exploring the extraterrestrial world, not workers who are responsible for moving bricks in space." Said.

"Ah?" The director was surprised when he heard this, "Then who do you want to send into space? Space workers must have at least a master's degree. You must know that it is not easy to adjust the space version of the powered exoskeleton."

"I think that person is the one we need." Just as the chairman was spitting and explaining, Say suddenly pointed to a thin spider man outside the window and said, "Call him in."

"Chairman Say, what did you call this person in for? He probably hasn't even attended middle school." The director asked doubtfully.

However, Say's personal bodyguard did not question this question, but went out to find the cleaning director of the PDC headquarters, and asked the other party to call the Spider-Man in.

After a while, the spider-man was brought in by Say's bodyguard. He was a thin, dark-skinned Asian man.

"Sir, how do I address you?" Say asked the man in Chinese, which is the only universal language in modern society, just like English in the past.

No matter which country this person is from, since he works in a foreign country, he must know at least a few words of Chinese. Besides, this person looks like a Southeast Asian, so it is unlikely that he cannot understand Chinese.

"Hello Chairman, my name is Shuiwa, what can you do for me?" The other party is fluent in Chinese, and with this humble name, he seems to be from China.

So Sai then asked Shui Wa: "Are you a high-altitude cleaner hired by the PDC?"

"No, I work for a cleaning company and they asked me to clean the building."

"Then are you interested in changing jobs?"

"What job do you want to change? I'm not a highly educated person like a scientist."

"It's not a highly educated job, it's still high-altitude cleaning, but it's for the PDC, to be precise, it's for me."

"Didn't your building have just been cleaned, and you still have to hire high-altitude cleaners?" Shui Wa asked suspiciously.

The chairman was completely confused. He couldn't help pulling Say's sleeve and said, "Chairman Say, why did you hire this person? His level of education is useless to the Wall-facing Project."

"Didn't you mention the Huaguo Sun just now?" Say turned to look at the chairman.

"Ah, yes, we have considered the Huaguo Sun project before, but the Nine Council members hope to launch this project when space development reaches a certain stage."

"The Huaguo Sun project is really good. It can be considered to improve the earth's ecological environment in the future. It's a bit of a stretch. Since the Huaguo Sun is in space, the particle stream ejected by the sun will affect it?"

"Yes, solar wind and a variety of nanomaterials will have a certain reaction, and in the long run, a thin film will be formed on the surface of the nanomaterials, which will damage the building." The director said.

"Then how do you solve this problem? You must know that the space elevator is made of nanomaterials. If such a thin film is formed, it will have an impact?" Say asked intentionally.

"To be honest, I don't know, because no one dares to risk the space elevator to form this kind of film." The director explained: "We will let the high-altitude cleaners use special equipment to clean these films."

"That's right, isn't there a high-altitude cleaner standing in front of us?"
