Chapter 313, Star Port Construction Investment
This radio speech to the entire league was certainly not Gu Hang's whim.
He had at least three levels of intention in this matter.
First of all, at this moment, the Alliance has completed the unification of the entire planet. Of course, he needs to address all the people as a ruler.He needs to declare the legitimacy of the alliance to all the people.
This will help boost public confidence.
Secondly, he also has to use this method to convey his political ideas to alliance government officials.
Thirdly, he has been away from his ruling center for half a year, and he must reveal his voice in front of the public to strengthen his prestige.
As for the second and third points, they cannot be solved in one speech.
Or simply put, whether it is implementing ideas or maintaining personal authority, it cannot be solved once and for all with a single action in a short period of time.This must be reflected continuously over a long period of time.
In the next period of time, Gu Hang's schedule became extremely busy.
He basically didn't stay in Fuxing City for a long time, he just flew around the league.Today I met the provincial chief, tomorrow I met that important mayor, and on the third day I went to a military station to express condolences to the officers and soldiers.
After running around, Gu Hang returned to Fuxing City and had to meet with important officials from various departments of the alliance's central government...
Indeed, when he met the mayor of Weixin City, Mr. Patel, he heard from him that a middle-aged female worker who was originally assigned to an ordinary factory in Weixin City turned out to be working on Koruga No. an urban planner.
Although he is not responsible for building the entire city, he has experience in the special work of urban planning in a city with a billion people like Fino City, and even has some personal opinions. This is a rare talent. .
In just one month, people observed everywhere in Weixing City and found several irrationalities in urban construction planning.By re-planning the road network and planning urban construction, just a few simple and local changes have greatly improved the logistics efficiency and the smoothness of urban resource transportation at this node.
The roads for transporting raw materials and exporting products have finally stopped fighting, and the stubborn problem of being blocked for a long time has been solved.
Later, they also came up with a set of three-dimensional construction plans, and based on some planning documents of the alliance government, they worked out the direction of the integration of Fuxing City and Weixing City.
All these things shocked Patel, and he felt that he had found a treasure, so he went directly to the special talent channel, hoping to greatly improve the rank of the lady named Mandoya Lucas, and also When I came to meet the Governor, I specifically mentioned this matter.
Gu Hang was also very happy about this.
People can do urban planning in a hive city with a population of one billion, let alone a city like Weixing City that currently has a population of several million.
Although, when construction just started, Wei Xing City was planned to be the most important industrial center under the alliance.However, limited by the scale, limited by the ability and vision of the planners, some things are just not perfect.
With such a great talent joining the team, he really wanted to have a good chat with Ms. Lucas.
But unfortunately, he really didn't have time.
At least that's the case for now. He will soon take some members of the investigation team back to Koruga 3 to make a report.
After returning from this trip, he had other things to do.
I can only regret waiting for the next opportunity.
...
When Gu Hang went to Koruga No. 3, nothing major happened.
There is no ship from Gu's Trading Company for him to sit on, but a Voyager spacecraft produced by the alliance and capable of interstellar navigation has already come out, with a weapon system and a shield system installed on it.
This weapon system is better than nothing.If you encounter some poor interstellar pirates, you can barely fight, but as long as the opponent's scale is slightly larger, you will be in big trouble.
However, the journey from Raging Owl to Koroga 3 itself is not dangerous.Except for a green-skinned raiding fleet that appeared last time (perhaps it was attracted by the system), I haven't heard much about interstellar pirates.
Those interstellar pirates sacrificed their lives and managed to get ships capable of space navigation. Of course they were going to make a lot of money.The waterways surrounding the Raging Owl Star are not prosperous, and can even be said to be as poor as ghosts. Pirates are too lazy to visit them.
All in all, even if you are traveling on a Traveler, the probability of an accident is very low.
However, the Traveler is a small ship with only about 500 people on board. It is basically unable to transport a large amount of supplies, and it is not convenient to bring something back from Koruga 3.
This time when he went to Koluojia No. 3, Gu Hang took away part of the investigation team and replaced them with others.During this period, a little kid came to complain to him, and the final result was of course nothing.
He didn't pay attention either.
A group of investor representatives also returned.Gu Hang didn't know what they would tell his boss specifically, but at least from the feedback they received from the Alliance's Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Ministry of Commerce, they were basically satisfied with the situation on the Raging Star.
This also brought back some good results.
Gu Hang stayed at Koruga No. 3 for two days.On the first day, I hung out with the investigation team, wrote reports, drank tea, chatted with Master Zhang Guangen and so on.
The next day, he met with several investors and signed several investment agreements regarding the Angry Star Port.
The investment amount is basically not large, and if you can make a decision so quickly, to be honest, it won't be a big deal.It means more like investing in Gu Hang.The general limit is only 10,000+, which seems to be enough to reach 20 tax coins.
The combined total of several investors only amounted to 70 tax coins.
This is certainly not enough for the construction of a large-scale star port, and the difference in the Raging Owl Star is not the 70 tax coins.
However, Gu Hang still signed everyone who came.
If you have money, why not?
Give them all the shares of Star Port and distribute the dividends according to the orders.
Moreover, Gu Hang did not use the money for other purposes. Instead, he signed an agreement with Gu's Trading Company. Together with some of the savings from the previous alliance, Gu Hang and his mother paid 100 million in taxes. coins, as Gu's Trading Company's investment in Angry Star Harbor.
This adds up to 200 million tax coins.
Gu's Trading Company then began to mobilize its own connections and booked a work schedule for the construction of a starship from a Mechanicum forging world two star sectors away.They will arrive at Raging Owl in a year and begin their operations.
In another year, the Nuo Xiao Star Port can be built to a scale that can accommodate large ships and support a large population and material throughput.
Here and there, including the cost of employment, the cost of materials, and the cost of industrial components produced on the ground, the total cost of Nu Xiao Star Port will reach almost [-] million tax coins.
Even if the materials and ground engineering are mined, smelted, and produced by the Alliance itself; the engineering machines sent into space by the Alliance itself will also bear a considerable proportion of the project, but the actual cost of cash or equivalent materials is not enough. It will reach a scale of [-] million tax coins.This is a huge investment that is beyond what the current Raging Owl Star can afford.
Ms. Wang Qi worriedly tried to persuade Gu Hang once, but Gu Hang didn't listen.
It is indeed a bit extreme, but he believes that this is an extremely necessary investment.
If not, it would all depend on the alliance itself to build it slowly. It would take five to ten years to build the star port to the same scale.
What was lost in this process was not only the time for the construction of the star port, but also the golden opportunity for the development of the Raging Owl Star.
He would rather spend [-] million to buy this opportunity.
As for how to get the money, Gu Hang was not too panicked.
An upfront deposit of 200 million was spent, and the construction period for the starship was set, which in itself represented Gu Hang's determination.This determination can be directly conveyed to other investors.
Gu Hang is not a liar. Firstly, he has the endorsement of a planet. Secondly, he has Gu's Trading Company standing behind him. Thirdly, he has recently become a popular figure in the political circles of Tianma Star District. I believe he can still attract more investors.
Being able to invest in the construction of a star port on a planet with great development potential is quite valuable to many wealthy people.
Gu Hang's goal is to be able to raise 5000 million tax coins after the arrival of the Mechanicum's construction spaceship in one year; to raise more than 5000 million in two years.
This is enough to pay for the two phases of the project.
What if you don't get enough?
Then let Gu's Trading Company take care of everything.
Gu's Trading Company is rich.
Although not all of the money belongs to Gu Hang, or even to the Gu family.But it doesn't matter, Gu Hang is the head of the family, and his mother is the actual controller. She can invest in Nu Xiao Xing Hong Kong through the name of Gu's Trading Company.Any shortfall will be made up, and all will be counted as shares and converted into fixed assets of Gu's Trading Company.
Of course, this will definitely cause dissatisfaction within the commercial bank and attract opponents.After all, the commercial bank's long-standing purpose has always been to emphasize not making any non-essential heavy asset investments other than ships. Investing in a star port obviously goes against this tradition.
But firstly, Gu Hang believed that his mother could solve these problems; secondly, even if some troubles occurred, it was still acceptable compared to the construction of the Raging Star.
If it really had a significant impact on the family business, his mother would also evaluate it and not just nod blindly.
...
After signing a large number of agreements regarding the investment and construction of the star port, Gu Hang hurriedly got on the Traveler and returned to the Raging Star.
After coming back, he continued his busy career traveling around the planet for a period of time. He finally visited all important areas of the world and met all the important figures in the alliance.
After finally having some free time, Gu Hang finally had time to plan how to spend the more than 5 gift points he had on hand.
There is no doubt that the consumption of gift points is the biggest weapon to improve the strength of the alliance.
Technology, of course, is the big one.
However, before starting the draw, Gu Hang first allocated part of the gift points to use in other aspects.
Solve all other matters first, and then draw the remaining gift points.
And what are these so-called other things?
Generally speaking, there are three aspects: construction, talent, and military.
Let's talk about architecture first.
He exchanged 13 civilian factories and 27 military factories, spending a total of [-] points of gifts, all of which were blessed on various factories in Wei Xing City.
The exchange items of these forty factories basically cover the entire Weixing City now.
Of course, the number of factories in Weixing City is not limited to this.However, the exchange items of [Military Factory] and [Civilian Factory] provide coverage effects.If the factory is small, multiple factories gathered together can share one exchange item, and all of them can get bonuses.
Of course, the same is true in other words. If the scale of the factory is too large, multiple redemption items may need to be covered at the same time to truly improve the production efficiency of the factory.
These four thousand gift points and forty factory redemption items, according to the description text in the [Building] interface, can basically guarantee that all the production capacity of the entire Weixing City area will be [moderately] improved.
In the past, Gu Hang also redeemed factory options and added them to some military factories.After careful follow-up inquiries and comparative investigations, he was able to learn that the so-called 'medium range' improvement effect was approximately 15%.
That's pretty good already.
This means that while the quality and quantity of workers have not changed, the technology has not changed, and the management structure has not changed, the production capacity has increased by 15%. This is of course a very good effect.
Specifically in Weixing City, the annual output value here has reached tens of millions of tax dollars. The 15% production capacity represents an additional output of 300 million tax dollars in industrial products every year, most of which are military products or heavy industrial products.
Why is it 300?
Because, of course, the factories that Gu Hang blessed were not 'inclusive'.Some low-value items, such as bullet production lines and textile factories, are unnecessary.And things like the Lion tank production line, the armored vehicle production line, the Wind Falcon production line, the ceramic smelting line... these are larger in scale and have higher added value.Increasing production capacity by 15% will bring more output value and efficiency than comprehensive strengthening.
And, please note, it is an annual sale, not a one-time sale.
If the time is extended, these growth rates can be enjoyed for a long time.
In addition, Gu Hang also strengthened the alliance's education system.
He can also see in the [Building] interface that the three major colleges he has built before, [Chungji College], [Comprehensive College], and [Technical College] have all opened higher-level upgrade options.
The asking prices are all five hundred gifts.
Gu Hang has never been concerned about investment in education. The improvement of the quality of the population is of great significance to the construction of the alliance.What's more, he now has a lot of resources on hand, and a total investment of [-] gift points is completely affordable.
After completing these blessings and upgrades, Gu Hang also saw a new building added to the building list:
[Mage Academy].
