The Rise Of Space Technology

"The cost of trillions is also within our plan. You must know that this is a warp spacecraft that can be used for interstellar routes. It is not surprising that the manufacturing cost of trillions is very normal."

"I estimate that if such a spacecraft is sold in the universe, I don't know how many civilizations are willing to spend everything to buy it."

Zhou Yu on the side listened, smiled and said.

With the development of technology, the things produced are really getting more and more expensive.

Like the previous fighter jets, the most advanced fighter jets of the beautiful fruit were said to cost more than 2 billion green coins at the time. The green coins at that time were proper real money, and the value of a B2 stealth bomber was equivalent to 60 tons of gold.

But this is not the most expensive, the most expensive is the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, the beautiful USS Ford, it is said that the cost of construction at that time was as high as 14 billion green coins.

This is definitely something that only a country with an extremely powerful comprehensive national strength can afford. Not only does it have the technology to manufacture aircraft carriers, but more importantly, it also has the economic strength to manufacture aircraft carriers.

Now the cost of Xinghai Technology's spacecraft is getting more and more expensive. The cost of the most expensive C-type spacecraft for mining asteroids is also as high as tens of billions.

The spaceships such as Star Catcher and Xingchen used by Xinghai Technology are more advanced in terms of technological content, technological equipment, etc., and the cost is over 100 billion.

Now to build a warp-drive spacecraft, the cost of trillions is also in everyone's budget and estimates.

Warp drive spacecraft are very powerful spacecraft.

Civilizations that have mastered warp speed technology can be regarded as river system-level civilizations, and are no longer stellar-level civilizations.

The value of a spacecraft that can fly at warp speed in the interstellar universe is very high. Xinghai technology can be built with trillions of dollars, because it has mastered this technology.

At the same time, the resources in the asteroid belt can be mined unscrupulously, otherwise, the cost will still skyrocket.

In the interstellar universe, ordinary star-level civilizations cannot contact warp-speed spacecraft at all, because warp-speed spacecraft can only be produced, manufactured, and mastered by higher-level river system-level civilizations.

But there are also a few stellar civilizations that can buy warp-drive spacecraft, often at an extremely high price.

If it is worth the currency of the earth, it may take a few years of people on the whole earth to work without food or drink to save all the money to buy such a spaceship.

In fact, this is almost impossible, because for higher-level civilizations, the resources and wealth that stellar-level civilizations can contribute are not worth mentioning at all.

It seems that gold on earth is very valuable now, but for Xinghai Technology, as long as it is willing, Xinghai Technology can go to the asteroid belt to mine a lot of gold at any time.

The value of this gold is extremely mediocre in comparison, and it may be an ordinary metal resource.

In fact, Xinghai Technology needs to use a lot of gold in the process of manufacturing spacecraft. Gold is a metal with good ductility and conductivity, and it is widely used in high-tech fields.

The resources and information held by different levels of technology are seriously unequal. If a low-level civilization wants to buy the products of a high-level civilization, the price it needs to spend is very huge.

Just like the age of voyages, Europeans could use glass beads to exchange gold and ivory in the hands of Africans and Native Americans.

For the warp engine technology that can only be mastered by river system-level civilizations, even if this warp-speed spacecraft is willing to sell to low-level stellar-level civilizations, the cost of this stellar-level civilization will be extremely huge. .

It may be that some precious resources need to be paid, or extremely huge resources need to be paid, or some unequal treaties are signed, etc.

In short, it will never be easy for you to get. It is only possible to sell it to you at a great price. This is only possible, and it may not be possible to sell it to you in many cases.

There are many things that money can't buy.

Just as we wanted to buy a lithography machine before, we couldn't buy it with money, and many things were not for sale.

Really speaking, we still have to keep improving ourselves and rely on our own ability and intelligence to study it. Once we can master these technologies ourselves, the equipment, instruments, technologies, etc. that seem to be extremely expensive will immediately become cabbage prices.

Just like a shield machine, before we have mastered this technology, the price of buying a shield machine is extremely expensive, often hundreds of millions of euros, and there are many conditions attached. We can't be present during assembly and maintenance, only their engineers can, and they need to pay expensive fees and so on.

After we master the technology of the shield machine, the price of this thing suddenly becomes extremely cheap, and tens of millions can give you a whole one.

Xinghai Technology can manufacture a warp spaceship at a cost of trillions, mainly because it has mastered this powerful technology.

Otherwise, if people on earth want to buy a warp spaceship in the future, Liu Yuan's first consideration is not the question of how much to pay, but the question of whether to sell it to you.

If it is really sold, it is estimated that it will be a conscience price to shout tens of trillions casually. If you are a little black, calling a million billion is considered a friendship price. In normal market conditions, there is no thousand times. , 10,000 times the price will not be sold.

With this thing, it is possible to carry out interstellar colonization in the interstellar universe.

One by one life planets can be incorporated into their own territory, used for interstellar immigration, used to develop resources, used for interstellar adventures, and so on.

This casual occupation of a life planet, its value is also infinite, and it is also a very cost-effective thing.

What's more, in the interstellar universe, there is a warp-speed spacecraft, which is a symbol of a river system-level civilization, and ordinary civilizations need to look up when facing you.

The warp spaceship is a symbol of identity, a proof of strength, and the crystallization of technology.

Of course, this is only for low-level civilizations. For higher-level cosmic civilizations, warp spaceships are ordinary things again, and they can even be said to be eliminated products.

"How much do you say if you sell it?"

When Sun Zilong heard this, he thought about it and said.

"Uh... I guess no one can afford it. This is something that can only appear in the trade between civilizations. The earth is still very divided, and it has not formed a whole. It is still at the stage of the mother-star civilization. No country can afford it."

When Zhou Yu heard it, he thought about it and said.

"I mean how much would it be worth if it were put in the interstellar universe and sold?"

Sun Zilong added quickly.

"Then how to look at it, for low-level civilization, it is naturally invaluable, but for high-level civilization, this thing may be similar to a toy, and the things children play may be eliminated and backward. products that no one uses anymore.”

Zhou Yu thought about it and said.

"Forget it, I'm too lazy to worry about this."

"The relevant design of the warp speed spacecraft of the journey has been reviewed and approved by the boss. After the new year, we will almost officially start the construction of this warp speed spacecraft."

Sun Zilong brought up the matter of the journey, which is the first warp-engine spacecraft built by Xinghai Technology, which means conquering the sea of ​​stars.

"I have no problem here. All the materials can be prepared before the new year, and the warp engine can be built after the new year. It is estimated that it will take half a year to complete the construction."

When Zhou Yu heard this, he silently calculated and said.

"That's no problem. By the end of next year, we will almost be able to complete the construction of the Journey. Now to build the spacecraft, the most time-consuming two are power and energy."

"I had a blast with Wang Wei yesterday, and his side will complete the construction of the nuclear fusion reactor by the middle of next year."

When Sun Zilong heard it, it was enough time.

Now the boss is in a hurry and often urges this matter, mainly because the current situation is quite unfavorable for Xinghai Technology. This time Xinghai Technology received a large number of orders for the construction of spaceships, which made people jealous.
