Chapter 253, Money Can’t Buy a Spaceship
Under Li Fu's initiative, the Yanhuang Society was established with Li Fu as the leader, Fuyun Group as the core, and many technology company bosses in the field of Chinese space technology and virtual world technology as the main force.
The purpose of the Yanhuang Society from the very beginning was to unite for warmth and jointly deal with international forces, especially to defend the country that everyone has worked so hard to win.
Of course, under Li Fu's guidance, the Yanhuang Society was slowly transformed from an economic organization established simply for common heating to a more rigorous and all-round organization to lay the foundation and prepare for the future.
The headquarters building of Fuyun Group in Sanjiang District, Meijiang County is located. This not too tall building seems to be unable to represent the increasingly large Fuyun Group. There are too many company headquarters buildings that are larger than the headquarters building of Fuyun Group. It's taller and more luxurious, but even though it doesn't look like much, any policy here is enough to shake the economy of the entire planet.
More than a dozen top-notch Rolls-Royce Phantoms slowly passed through the gate of the Fuyun Group Industrial Park and arrived below the Fuyun Group headquarters building. Raymond, with blond hair, blue eyes and a straight nose, was wearing a suit handmade by Master Dennis on Oxford Street in London. The black suit looks like a noble from an ancient European noble family.
Raymond came to China this time to purchase Fuyun Group’s Dumbo spacecraft and prepare to develop the asteroid mining business. His full name is Raymond~Yunas. He belongs to the Yunus family. Most people probably know him. I have never heard of it. Even in the West, not many people know this name.
The Yunus family is a truly hidden powerful family that almost controls many fields such as finance and energy in the UK. Their influence is not even limited to the UK. They can be found everywhere in the entire Western world, but outsiders do not know it. That’s all.
Of course, like many ancient families, the Yunus family is currently developing relatively slowly, especially in the new fields of space technology and the virtual world. The Yunus family has almost no achievements, because these two industries were launched in China. Those who got up, their hands can't reach China yet.
However, since the establishment of the Earth United Front, the Yunus family, like many other forces in the West, has aggressively entered the field of space technology and the virtual world, and has quickly developed rapidly. Everyone knows that the growth rate of wealth in the space age is much faster. Far beyond any previous industry.
They all know why there are more and more super-rich people in China. Many of them have only just emerged. Their wealth is enough to make these ancient families jealous and salivate.
Especially the asteroid mining industry. This industry is very profitable. You can easily earn hundreds of billions of dollars by taking a trip to an asteroid. If you are lucky enough, you can make hundreds of billions without any problems. It can be said that it is better than India. Money is even faster.
Naturally, the Yunus family is also eyeing this piece of fat and wants to take a bite of it in this field. However, the only spaceships that go to the asteroid belt to mine asteroids are the Dumbo and Dumbo produced by Fuyun Group. Only spaceships can do it. Of course, there is also an anti-gravity spacecraft that Fuyun Group has never sold to the outside world. It is also a powerful spaceship that can easily mine hundreds of millions of tons of asteroids.
Raymond came to Fuyun Group this time with only one purpose, which was to purchase a spacecraft to carry out asteroid mining business. Although space agriculture, solar power stations, lunar mining and other businesses are also hugely profitable industries, but with The asteroid mining industry pales in comparison.
"It's really well adjusted. People who don't know better would think that Fuyun Group doesn't have much strength."
Raymond looked at the headquarters building of Fuyun Group and said with a slight sigh. At this time, a receptionist had already come to receive Raymond and his party.
In the largest conference room, Fang Zheng and Luo Yunchang, two senior and heavyweights of the Fuyun Group, personally came to receive the meeting. This was considered as giving Raymond enough face, being subtle and getting to know each other.
"Mr. Fang, we are interrupting this time because we hope to purchase some spaceships from your group to mine asteroids. We also ask Mr. Fang for help."
Raymond used a smile full of sunshine, and his voice had a hint of aristocratic laziness.
"Mr. Yunus, I'm really sorry. Our company's production of the Dumbo and Big Elephant spacecrafts is very limited, and orders have been scheduled for four or five years. So I'm really sorry, and I can't help."
Fang Zheng shook his head helplessly.
"As far as I know, your company's newly built space factory in space can produce tens of thousands of spaceships each year. Such a huge output should be more or less evenly distributed."
Raymond raised his eyebrows. He had been prepared in advance. He knew that Fuyun Group would not easily sell the spaceship to him, so he also analyzed and had a detailed understanding of all aspects of Fuyun Group. Knowing that Fuyun Group The current output of large and small Dumbo spacecraft is quite impressive.
"Although the output of the new factory is not bad, our spaceships are too popular. They are all based on orders. All products have been sold in advance. Now the orders are really reserved for four to five years. If you If you really need it, you can place an order with us now and you can get the spacecraft in four or five years.”
Fang Zheng smiled slightly. This spaceship will be sold to anyone. Fuyun Group has always adhered to the principle of Chinese priority, giving priority to Chinese people. To be honest, it is not difficult to spare some of the tens of thousands of spaceships produced each year, but Fuyun Group does not want to sell them to these foreigners, especially now that the Yanhuang Society has been established, Fuyun Group should consider the interests of the Chinese people themselves.
"Four or five years later? The opportunity will be cold."
Raymond couldn't help but want to curse in his mind, but now he was begging for help, so he had no choice but to keep smiling on his face.
"Mr. Fang, now the Earth is a family, we are all one family, and we will develop towards the Earth Federation in the future. Your Chinese government has already relaxed many restrictions, so please help us. We don't want much, just 5 Dumbo spacecrafts will be enough."
"Mr. Yunus, it's not that I don't want to help, but there is really no other way. We do business on a first-come-first-served basis. These Dumbo spacecrafts are all ordered. I believe you are also very clear about this. Our Fuyun Group has been able to develop to this day because of the word trust. I am really sorry that I really can't help you with this."
Fang Zheng was naturally unmoved. Just kidding, many industries in the space field are now open to you guys, and the Chinese space field has been greatly impacted. That is, the asteroid belt mining industry is still in the hands of the Chinese. Major space technology companies can still rely on this to support themselves, otherwise I don't know how many space technology companies will go bankrupt.
"Mr. Fang, I know this is difficult, but no matter what, please help us, even if it means allocating a spaceship to us."
Raymond frowned, and the aura of nobility was gone. There was no way. It was not pleasant to ask for help, and the key was that the other party might not sell it to you.
"I'm really sorry. A spaceship is a small matter, but we can't lose the basis of our business and humanity because of a spaceship, so there is really no way."
Fang Zheng looked at the change in the expression on the other party's face, and he was very happy.
"Mr. Fang, it's not good to be so unkind. As far as I know, someone has already submitted an application to the Earth United Front, saying that your group has monopolized too many fields. Once the anti-monopoly is passed, it will be very unfavorable to your group. Although our Yunus family is nothing, it has more or less some influence in the West, and may be able to help you."
Seeing that the normal way is not to get a spaceship, Raymond frowned, smiled slightly and slowly spoke.
"We, Fuyun Group, have always relied on our own sweat and wisdom to make a living. As for the so-called monopoly, it is even more impossible. We have not restricted others from entering related fields. We have also been encouraging others to study related technologies."
"We appreciate Mr. Jonas's kindness."
Fang Zheng answered neither humbly nor arrogantly. Now the anti-monopoly wind against Fuyun Group is getting louder and louder. International forces are constantly fueling the flames. Some domestic people who are jealous of Fuyun Group are also secretly pushing it. Without the protection of the Chinese official, Fuyun Group has to worry about these things, but everything is under Li Fu's control.
"Since the Dumbo spacecraft has been fully booked, I wonder if your company's Jindouyun spacecraft can sell one to us?"
Seeing that Fang Zheng was not willing to give up, Raymond was also annoyed, but there was no way, and he didn't want to give up, so he turned around and asked about the Jindouyun spacecraft. This Jindouyun spacecraft is a spacecraft that uses anti-gravity power. It can easily mine hundreds of millions of tons of asteroids and has long been coveted by the outside world.
"Our company has not sold any Jindouyun spaceships to the public. The current production is limited and we only use them for our own use. So I apologize."
As expected, Fang Zheng refused again. Raymond really felt like he had no power. The spaceships of Fuyun Group were extremely expensive. In order to buy the spaceships, the Yunus family had to scrape together the funds. They didn't expect that they couldn't buy anything with money now.
"It seems that we can only think of another way. It's impossible to get the spaceships through normal means..."
