Luckily for Chen Yang, this amount of money wasn't much to him now. Most of his significant investments had already been made, and he didn't mind spending a little more. Although providing better employee benefits would require additional costs, it would help retain talent. Comparatively, Chen Yang valued talent more.
The ultimate goal of Right Hand was to build several nuclear power stations comparable to the Three Gorges Hydropower Station, which would supply power for the interstellar gate. With Chen Yang's current capabilities, he could feasibly start constructing these stations from next year with considerable strain.
Based on the information he had, the Daya Bay Nuclear Power Station costs around $40.4 billion to construct and has a power output of 2*984MW. Nearly seven of these stations would be needed to meet the demand.
This meant that a total of nearly $280 billion was needed.
