Chapter 2563 The 'Gibraltar' from Earth to the Universe
Director Zhang, you just mentioned that building such a lunar scientific research station is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the investment is huge. Many countries dare not proceed easily. Why does Haoyu Aerospace invest so much in building such a lunar scientific research station?
.
We have noticed that there are many voices on the Internet that are pessimistic about this project, thinking that it is a money-making project in the stock market. Some people think that this is just a dream-realization project for a small group of people such as Wu Hao. Some people think that this project has a high probability of becoming a reality.
It sucks, what do you think about this?
Director Zhang nodded and said.
It is understandable that there are such concerns on such a large project network. It should be said that this is a huge project with huge investment and high risks. Because of this, not many countries and companies in the world dare to implement such a huge project.
plan.
It should be said that Haoyu Aerospace dared to implement this plan and was the first to take advantage of it. It should be said that it took a lot of courage. This may have a lot to do with their leader Wu Hao.
We can see from a series of interviews with Yu Wu Hao in the past that Wu Hao himself is very optimistic about the development of the commercial aerospace industry and believes that mankind has entered the era of space exploration on the eve of the Age of Discovery.
Of course, some people question his view, but there are also many people who support and agree with it. This is also due to the impressive achievements that humans have made in the field of aerospace technology in recent years. It should be said that currently, all countries and the world's major corporate capital giants have
He shifted his attention to the field of aerospace. Therefore, it is understandable from this aspect that Wu Hao has such judgment and persistence.
Why Wu Hao placed his treasure on the moon and focused on the exploration and development of the moon? We can also learn from the interviews and interviews he has accepted in the past.
For example, he and many scientists believe that the moon is a transit station and bridgehead for humans entering and exiting space, as well as a dock and important post station for the earth. Whoever controls the moon controls the delay of humans entering deep space.
In this regard, the moon is equivalent to the Lion City on the Strait of Malacca, or the delayed Gibraltar connecting the Mediterranean Sea to Oceania.
As we all know, both the Lion City and Gibraltar rely on their extremely important geographical locations to make huge profits in world shipping. And if we control the moon, it will be equivalent to controlling the delay for all mankind to enter deep space.
In the future, whether humans enter deep space or return to the earth, they will pass by the moon. By then, whether it is providing navigation services, oil and water supply and other services, only a small fee will be charged, and a small amount can be added up to gain huge benefits.
In addition, there are very rich resources on the moon. For example, Haoyu Aerospace once published a piece of survey data from Wangshu-1. There are dozens of extraordinary mineral elements on the moon, including copper, silver, gold, manganese, and iron.
Wait, the most famous of them is helium-3. The current price of one ton of helium-3 is three billion U.S. dollars, which is very expensive. And because helium-3 is an important source of energy and fuel in the future, it is very scarce on the earth and basically has a price.
No market. If helium-3 can be mined from the moon and transported to the earth, it can be said to be a huge profit.
In addition, there is a lot of space on the moon, which is currently relatively scarce on the earth. As the number of people on the earth increases, the space for survival will become smaller and smaller.
Therefore, in the future, human beings will definitely look to the sky for their future survival, and the moon, which is closest to us, is undoubtedly the best choice. The vast space on the moon can satisfy human habitation, and can also be used for some industrial and agricultural planting, etc.
In addition, the gravitational environment on the moon also affects various industrial and scientific research activities.
Therefore, Wu Hao and others have set their sights on the moon and focused heavily on the development of lunar scientific research projects. This will be very beneficial in the long run. This is enough to prove that Wu Hao has a very long-term development vision.
Judging from the difficult development and operation of a lunar scientific research station alone, this project also has great potential.
First of all, this is a commercial lunar scientific research station open to the world. This also means that after the construction of this lunar scientific research station is completed, it will be open to the whole world. By then, who wants to go to the moon to conduct research?
Scientific research only requires a small amount of money.
As soon as Director Zhang finished speaking, Professor Huang couldn't help but interjected: "It's not just a sum of money, but a lot of money. First you have to send your scientists to the moon, and after completing the scientific research mission
, you still have to bring these scientists back safely.
Therefore, you first have to buy a ship ticket to and from the moon for these scientists. The price of this round-trip ticket of 380,000 kilometers one way is naturally not cheap.
Secondly, these scientists have to spend money to eat, drink and sleep on the lunar scientific research station, and even every breath of air you breathe costs money. It is impossible to send a scientist up there for only a day or two.
At least half a month or even longer. Based on the price of 100,000 US dollars per scientist per day, that is 3 million US dollars per month. This is still the lowest price.
In the early stage, this scientific research station will be able to accommodate more than 20 people, and in the later stage, it will be able to accommodate more than 100 people to live and carry out scientific research tasks. Then it will be sold according to 60% of the quota. Sixty scientists will be based on each person.
At a price of US$3 million per month, the monthly income is US$180 million. After deducting operating costs, Haoyu Aerospace can earn at least US$100 million.
In addition, Haoyu Aerospace will definitely share a part of the income from the technological transformation of the scientific research results conducted by these scientists on the moon, which is also a considerable amount of income.
There are also a series of commercial tourism projects carried out on the scientific research station, which is also a considerable amount of income. Anyway, the income of this scientific research station is definitely not low.
So Haoyu Aerospace may not only not lose money, but also make huge profits.”
Professor Huang is right, Director Zhang added: "In fact, Haoyu Aerospace or Wu Hao have made very detailed and far-reaching plans for the entire lunar exploration plan and the lunar scientific research station project, how to operate and how to make profits.
This aspect has been discussed in great detail and a series of related plans have been formulated.
Before the entire project was approved, very detailed discussions and research were conducted. After confirming that it was feasible and profitable, the project was launched.
Wu Hao's greatest advantage is his humility. He is very pragmatic and unassuming. We can see this from the fact that he rarely appears in public except for some business activities.
So it is definitely not possible for him to invest in such a huge development project just for a simple dream, or for a gimmick. He must have made this decision after very mature consideration."
