Chapter 800 Big Investment

Liu Hai was busy again. The internal system of Teaching Building 001 was already coming to an end. Of course, these were all simulation systems.

Sometimes when Liu Hai walks in the No. 001 teaching building, it is difficult to tell whether he is in the aircraft carrier space or not.

Of course, there are still big differences in the internal facilities, but the overall structure is almost exactly the same.

The only difference is that one is made of pure steel and the other is made of reinforced concrete, so there is a slight difference.

Designing a system is not actually a very complicated thing. The key lies in the installation and testing of the system.

A fire protection system was tested back and forth several times.

Sometimes it’s not clear what went wrong, sometimes it’s just a problem with the smoke alarm (first invented in 1940, the photoelectric smoke alarm was patented in 1972), which results in a large-scale investigation of various circuits, etc.

The weak current business can sometimes be extremely stressful for people who work in it.

The same is true for high voltage electricity. After all, there are so many lines in the entire Teaching Building 001 and so many devices to provide. Sometimes just a problem with a socket can keep a group of electricians busy for a long time.

There are also ventilation systems, temperature systems, and so on.

You can copy when designing bangs, but there is no place to copy when it comes to actual system installation and debugging.

The current systems are all externally powered, and as for the power compartment, it is currently empty.

"Xiao Liu, your power cabin doesn't seem to be powered by traditional power, right?" Sun Aiguo looked at the layout of the power cabin.

"My idea is nuclear power, but I don't have much research in this area." Liu Hai said.

So far, the greatest and most outstanding invention of mankind is boiling water.

Nuclear power generation is actually about boiling water, transferring the heat from the nuclear reaction to a coolant, usually water, and then using high-temperature and high-pressure steam to drive mechanical equipment or power generation equipment.

"Then what about the catapult?" Sun Aiguo certainly knew that this teaching building used a catapult, because the entire design of the plywood was flat, not a ski jump deck.

"This also has extremely high technical difficulty. I personally would like to choose electromagnetic catapult, but I am currently learning about this." The learning Liu Hai mentioned is learning on an aircraft carrier in the aircraft carrier space.

"Electromagnetic catapult!" Sun Aiguo repeated the four words, but he didn't know how to say it because he didn't know much about it.

"Strictly speaking, this teaching building is still a semi-finished product. First, there is no power system, and then there is no catapult system." Liu Hai and Sun Aiguo could see various signs everywhere as they walked in the teaching building.

Internal signage is also a science, which allows people to quickly identify the direction of where they want to go.

"Having a semi-finished product is enough."

"But I heard that the technology of aircraft carriers is too difficult. First of all, there is the steel of the aircraft carrier itself, and then there are the arresting cables?"

"The most important thing is that the aircraft carrier itself does not have a very high defense capability, so a supporting fleet is needed."

"We have always been weak in the navy. Although we have caught up a lot in recent years, there is still a big gap between us and advanced countries." Sun Aiguo certainly knows how difficult it is to build an aircraft carrier fleet successfully.

"Yes, there are too many problems that need to be solved." Liu Hai nodded.

But now it is much better than in history. At least we have the relevant technology. After all, our shipbuilding industry is much better than that in the small book. Of course, the small book is mainly the shipbuilding industry transferred from the bald eagle.

However, Xiao Benzi only earns a few hard-earned dollars, because Niu Niu controls the upstream material pricing power, especially in the metal ore industry.

The iron ore in places like Australia and Brazil are basically monopolized by Niu Niu.

However, Xiaobenzi imported a lot of iron ore from Feixiong, mainly for trade exchanges between the two sides.

Fat Bear has huge iron ore reserves, accounting for one-third of the world's total, but the cost of mining there is too high.

It’s not that his iron ore is buried very deep. Most of it is open-pit mines, but it is frozen for most of the year.

In such a place, it is too difficult to mine minerals or even build infrastructure. In winter, you may run on the road, but in summer, it will become mud.

So although Fat Bear exports a lot of iron ore, the price it pays is also very high, and it basically loses money to gain publicity.

Especially the gas turbine technology that Niu Niu transferred to us in the early days.

The navy is now equipped with a certain number of 053s and is launching 054s. Of course, the current ones are not as modernized as the historical 054s.

After all, the time gap between construction and service is too large.

As for 055, Liu Hai thinks it is probably already in the design stage, because this is also the route we have always followed.

"I don't know how long it will take us to build our own aircraft carrier!" Sun Aiguo let out a long sigh and said.

"It's hard to say." Liu Hai really couldn't say it well about the aircraft carrier issue, because in a few years Fat Bear will be gone, and there will be too many idle aircraft carriers in the world.

Not to mention how many aircraft carriers Fat Bear can build, Niu Niu had 4 aircraft carrier fleets before Fat Bear died, and Gaul Rooster has another 4, which is much more than in history.

By then, once Fat Bear loses his Bull Gallic Chicken's aircraft carriers, he will definitely sell off some of them.

So by then there will probably be several aircraft carriers on the market for sale at a discount price.

Of course, it may have to be sealed, so Liu Hai needs to wait and see the situation before making any decisions.

The 001 teaching building is very large, and construction workers can be seen everywhere inside. The construction workers wear different clothes and hats, representing the systems under construction.

Some clothes have fire protection and low-voltage electricity written on them.

Some say ventilation.

Some of the clothes have water services written on them.

The entire teaching building No. 001 is equivalent to an independent living environment for thousands of people, and the various supporting facilities inside must be complete.

Eating, drinking, defecating, urinating, various combat readiness duties, combat missions, maintenance, etc.

With this teaching building, officers and soldiers can become familiar with life here in advance.

"What do you think about disarmament?" Sun Aiguo asked again.

"I have no objection to this. Future wars will be more advanced and sophisticated, and the role that humans can play will be reduced. Besides, we can easily accommodate the 100 million people now." Liu Hai said.

"Our superiors plan to carry out large-scale agricultural reclamation and water conservancy projects in the northwest, but we have too few people there," said Sun Aiguo.

"This is a good thing." Liu Hai knew that when he traveled through time, we were still migrating population to the northwest.

Many people have some misunderstandings about the Northwest. The Northwest has a lot of deserts and Gobi, but there are also a lot of fertile lands. After all, there are snow-capped mountains all around, and the melted water from the snow mountains is enough to feed many people.

The main reason is that the area of ​​the northwest is too large. One province is equivalent to the area of ​​the entire Jiangnan region.

It is equivalent to 1/6 of the country's land area, with a border line of nearly 6000 kilometers, bordering many countries. It will become a strategic core location in the future.

my country's industrialization level is quite high now, and with various engineering machinery it is much more convenient to repair water conservancy facilities.

"Do you want me to invest in building water conservancy facilities?" Liu Hai decided to give it a push.

This does not mean that the national level does not have the money, but that the national level needs to weigh where to give the money first and where to give it later. It cannot give all the money to the northwest, after all, construction has just started there.

The whole country is a chessboard. It is impossible to focus on supporting one place and other places do not need construction or funds?
Liu Hai’s own money is different, he can go wherever he wants.

"This is a good thing." Sun Aiguo certainly knew that Liu Hai was very rich now.

Although the investment in Panda mobile phones and Panda computers is huge, the funds are now flowing back and a lot of patent fees have been collected.

The DC10 aircraft produced by Heshun Airlines is still allowed to fly in Europe and other places, although the Bald Eagle is still banned from flying for safety reasons. Therefore, there are many orders for the aircraft. Although the price of DC10 aircraft is the same as that of foreign aircraft, there are many preferential terms, such as free maintenance of two engines when the engine life is over.

That’s how much two engines cost, and there are also discounts on parts.

The selling price of the entire aircraft is similar, but the subsequent maintenance is 10/1 lower than that of DC3.

The key is that DC10 is very popular internationally as a cargo plane.

The DC10 aircraft is called a mad dog in the cargo industry because it can carry a lot and run fast.

So Heshun Airlines also started to make profits.

However, the bulk of Liu Hai's income comes from overseas entertainment, film, television, and novels.

In the past two years, Liu Hai's income has increased visibly.

“Then I will temporarily invest $10 billion!”

"So much money?"

“Would you like to consider the construction of the Three Gorges Dam?”

“Is this going to be built?”

"The higher authorities have already made this plan. On the one hand, there is funding. On the other hand, there are many places that need to be relocated, which will cost a lot of money. In addition, there are construction costs."

“After the Three Gorges Dam is built, 10,000-ton cargo ships will be able to go directly to the southwest.”

"In fact, some water conservancy experts have an idea that I think is crazy, which is the Red Flag Canal Project, which is to bring water from the Yarlung Zangbo River into the northwest."

Liu Hai was also stunned when he heard about this plan, because he seemed to have heard of this plan in his previous life, but later on the original route of the Red Flag Canal was in an earthquake zone.

In addition, there is a lack of water in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and the Yellow River, so it is a bit difficult to take this route.

Because the Red Flag Canal was planned to follow the Hengduan Mountains, then make a big detour and reach the desert in the northwest, this route would pass through several tributaries of the Yangtze River.

Later on, the water consumption in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River will be very large. If we build a dam on the Yarlung Zangbo River, the three in command below will be very angry.

In fact, what the third in command does himself is not authentic.

Doesn’t the Ganges flow into the sea from Bangladesh? The Third In Command built a dam in front of the Ganges before it enters Bangladesh.

He diverted a large amount of water into his own state of Bengal, where he intercepted other people's water and opposed our construction of dams upstream. It's quite shameless.

"When can you show me the plan?" He was quite interested in this bangs.

Because now he is the third in command in this time and space, and now is the time for him to become a grandson.

By the time the fat bear is gone, maybe the shameless bald eagle will come back to support him.

So there is still some hope for this plan now, at least we can build the dam on the Yarlung Zangbo River first.

"I'll show you the plan later."

"In addition, the water conservancy experts also have a South-to-North Water Diversion Project, mainly because our north is short of water." Sun Aiguo said again.

Liu Hai knew that this project was divided into the west line, the middle line and the east line.

The eastern route was almost ready-made because the Grand Canal had already been opened.

A reservoir is to be built on the middle line, but construction has probably not started yet.

When the western line reached Liuhai Crossing, construction had not yet started. Its main purpose was to divert the water from the Jinsha River and Yalong River into the Yellow River, which actually involved the development of the lower reaches of the two rivers.

"Let's take a look at them together when the time comes. My various investments over the years have gradually paid off."

Liu Hai finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although Fenghuo Technology Company's investment was still huge, it was able to make a profit at least, and it looked like the recovery was very rapid.

Motorola alone sold more than 20 mobile phones and 4 computers.

As for Europe, the sales volume is even higher. Mobile phone sales have exceeded 50 units and computer sales have exceeded 10 units.

The number of mobile phones sold by America Communications in North America also exceeded 20.

By the end of this year, mobile phone sales will exceed 100 million units.

Of course, this number is not that large compared to 2020.

But this was 1985, and cell phones today cost more than $2000.

How much does an Apple phone cost in 2020?
"Your income is higher than that of many countries." Sun Aiguo laughed.

"Hey!" Liu Hai chuckled.

There is no way, especially in the field of entertainment and games, where the winner takes all.

"I'll see if there are any other big projects I can introduce to you later."

"No problem. The more highways the better."

"The more reservoirs and hydropower stations there are, the better."

"If it doesn't work out, I'll set up a company and go to the Northwest to reclaim land."

"That's what you said."

"That's what I said." Liu Hai set up a big company to reclaim the land. He would not plant the crops himself. He would just invest in reclaiming the land, repair all the water conservancy facilities, and then contract them out to other people.

If all else fails, you can plant your own fruit trees. The fruits there taste especially good because of the long sunshine and large temperature difference between day and night.

The fruits produced will be directly exported.

When Liu Hai traveled through time, he knew that Northwest China was the largest ketchup production base.

On the one hand, you can use a large amount of funds, and on the other hand, you can get long-term benefits.

There is not much point in just keeping money. It only makes sense when you use it.

Besides, these projects require large investments but yield slow returns, so aren’t they just right for me?

"I didn't expect that I could solve so many problems by hanging out with you today." Sun Aiguo's focus is no longer limited to his own factory.

"As long as I have money, I can use it for investment. Anyway, in a few months, this year's income will be credited to my account." Liu Hai was hoping for more big projects like this.

Moreover, it is a good thing if these large projects invest more money themselves and allow the relocated farmers to benefit more. After all, the meat is rotten in the pot, and it is nothing more than an additional 10 to 20 percent of the budget for a project.

We men have money!

"I'm afraid the electromagnetic catapult is not easy to study, right?"

"Everything is done by people, but now my main focus is on C101. Let me finish this project first. It doesn't feel good to always produce other people's aircraft." Liu Hai laughed. He had ready-made things, instructions, and real objects. Besides, there were some great people in our country. Maybe I could make a rough idea myself, and these great people would come and make it.

So now I have to think about how to write a plan while studying. The main reason is that some things obviously have answers, but I have to write them in a guessing mode, which consumes more brain cells.
