Chapter 950 - Xin Space Resources Development Forum (2/2)

When Jiang Chen spat out the figures, he could clearly feel that everyone in the venue was holding their breaths.

Just an asteroid with a diameter of 500 meters had a value of more than 20 billion. Not to mention in the solar system, but there were countless asteroids in the vicinity of the Earth-Moon system. Now, in the eyes of these capitalists, those asteroids were no longer asteroids, but flying treasures!

Many people secretly took out their phones and texted their assistants. What Jiang Chen didn’t know was that because of his words, on Wall Street, which was tens of thousands of kilometers away, stock prices of space companies with space mining expectations like SpaceX all soared.

There was only one reason for this, someone was increasing holdings of these companies.

Of course, Jiang Chen wouldn’t pay attention to the fluctuations of the stock market. His full attention was on the business forum where countless capitalists were gathered.

Seeing that the bait he tossed out already exceeded expectations, he smiled, used a provocative tone, and said, “Ladies and gents, we’re entering a new world! A new continent that hasn’t been claimed and is several times wider than the Americas. The unknown never means absurdity but infinite possibilities. Now it’s a trillion or even hundred trillion-dollar cake in front of us. Although we can only cut a small piece now, I believe that with the participation of all of us, we will have more than we could ever imagine!”

When the enthusiasm of all investors was ignited, Jiang Chen naturally introduced the specifics of cooperation.

In addition to the projects such as port leasing, warehouse leasing, space station development, and space elevator transportation, Jiang Chen also tossed a large piece of cake in front of everyone. It was the leasing of the six by four space station interface!

Other than some special space stations, the space station of Celestial used a interface of six meters in length and four meters in width.

According to the size specifications of Celestial Trade’s external connection, any company could design its own space station to meet its own business needs. As long as the company reported to the Celestial City Management Committee, which was responsible for the operation and maintenance, the drawings and prototypes must be sent for safety monitoring and qualification certification. Then the space station could be attached to the interface and begin operations in Celestial City.

The ore processing unit designed by Future Mining was based on this rule.

Celestial Trade had more than ten thousand interfaces divided between the gravity section, gravity-free section and low gravity section used to connect external space station modules. In addition, between space stations, the units could also be connected to each other through a specific interface. In other words, this circular city had almost unlimited room for expansion.

Compared to the solitary space station floating in the orbit, the type of interface the space station offered had considerable advantages. Not only did it offer convenient transportation, but it could also enjoy the water, electricity, and oxygen supply from Celestial City at a lower price. The city itself offered living spaces for space stations that required staff, so there was no need to waste valuable space to establish a separate living area.

Going to work at the station would be as convenient as walking to work!

All the capitalists looked at Jiang Chen in front of the podium with lust in their eyes.

The proposal from Celestial Trade meant that everyone present not could only participate in the space tourism industry, but they also had the opportunity to participate in the development of space resources together with Celestial Trade!

Obtain cheap minerals and resources from asteroid mining, then produce a large number of low-cost goods through Celestial City’s factory then transport them to the surface through the space elevator…

Of course, while they were tempted, the people present there were all elites and didn’t express their emotions.

Projects involving hundreds of billions of dollars of investment couldn’t be decided just on a whim. Very few companies’ shareholding structures were as stable as Future Group; even the chairman of the board couldn’t just ignore the opinions of other shareholders within the company.
