Chapter 798 (1/2)

The construction of the space elevator is in full swing.

Keeping the rhythm of one rocket a day, the space science and technology center of star ring trade has turned space projects into daily activities, launching 24 tons of heavy objects into outer space every day. Almost as soon as the r320 engine, which was produced by the industrial grade 3 printer, came off the production line and was transported to the rocket launch site for assembly.

In an interview with the media, the staff of the aerospace science and technology center even joked, ”we have successfully turned the aerospace industry into an assembly line.”

The cost of star ring rocket is lower than that of Falcon 9, and the cost is only 10 million US dollars. As the two-stage propulsion mode is adopted in the starring series rockets, and the first stage rockets can be recycled, the single launch cost is only 4 million US dollars. Two thirds of the Falcon 9 launch vehicle.

That's why star ring trade can afford the money.

However, when Kerwin sent the first phase of budget application materials to Jiang Chen's desk, Jiang Chen still couldn't help being tongue tied.

A day of 4 million, a year can be 1.46 billion

the cost of transporting materials to outer space alone is very expensive.

At the beginning of the year, Jiang Chen had already allocated 50 billion US dollars to star ring trade. After the completion of space elevator research and development, there was still a balance of more than 40 billion yuan. Futuren bank has loaned 20 billion yuan, and Jiang Chen has borrowed 30 billion yuan through Boston Bank and Morgan bank respectively. The repayment period is 5 years and the annual interest is 6.

It has to be said that the shares of futureman group are still quite attractive to American consortia. At first, when Jiang Chen and lodge discussed the loan, the old fox hesitated, saying that the amount was too large to handle. But when he heard that Jiang Chen was willing to use the shares of futuren group as collateral, there was no trouble. Lodge could hardly afford to lend more to Jiang Chen. By then, Jiang Chen could not afford to become the largest shareholder of futuren group.

However, after some hesitation, Jiang Chen did not do so in the end.

No matter how to say that the two families are also allies, Jiang Chen is also a bit sorry to make their family so miserable.

Therefore, after looking for the Boston consortium, Jiang Chen then found another major shareholder of the Federal Reserve, Morgan Stanley of the P consortium.

When Jiang Chen found Morgan bank, he also took out shares as bait. As he expected, the other party, after saying that it was necessary to hold a meeting for discussion and discussion, contacted Jiang Chen the next day and said that the loan of 30 billion yuan was totally OK.

The reason why Morgan and First Boston Bank are so courteous is that they don't believe Jiang Chen can afford to pay back the money. Through information research in various fields, futureman group wastes a lot of money on space projects.

Analysts at Morgan and First Boston agreed that the tens of billions of dollars in loans are likely to be invested in space projects.

As we all know, the space program is a bottomless pit.

Even xspace, a leading private aviation company, is able to make profits more than half because of orders from Na and the U.S. Department of defense. It is impossible to support an aerospace enterprise just by launching projects through commercial activities.

although the economic growth of new China is very fast, it is still a small country. How much of its annual finance can be invested in space projects? Only relying on Russia's outsourcing International Space Station replenishment project can you get enough food and clothing. If you really make such money, Russia will do it for you, Morgan bank and First Boston Bank all believe that futuren group will never recover its investment cost within five years. At that time, Jiang Chen can only repay the debt with equity.

However, will Jiang Chen let them do it?

when the space elevator is completed, the future people group will attack the US dollar.
