Chapter 391 Retired Aircraft Carrier
From the next day, Gao Yuan began a leisurely life, riding horses in the manor and going fishing on the sea on a yacht.
Cai Sitian, on the other hand, got busy after a day off. She wanted to establish a new real estate company in Australia and continue to use the name of Cai Group. The company will be fully controlled by Cai Sitian.
She asked Gao Yuan if he would let Yuanfang control the company, but Gao Yuan refused and did not even sign a holding agreement.
The reason why Gao Yuan did this is simple.
He didn't want to be exposed too early without enough strength, so it was good to put Cai Sitian in the front.
This is also equivalent to setting up a firewall.
Most people would only think that this is an industry owned by the Cai Group, and would not think that Gao Yuan was controlling it behind the scenes.
At the same time, the resort project has also begun to be launched.
Cai Sitian spent millions to purchase 3,000 acres of land from Charles.
The total investment in the first phase of the resort is 5 billion, which is planned to be completed within one year. The maximum single-day reception standard is about 100,000 people. Inside the resort, there are playgrounds, observation decks, and a seven-star hotel... integrating eating, drinking, and having fun.
The second phase of the project will be completed within three years, with a total investment of 10 billion in the entire second phase. The resort will be promoted in multiple aspects, and at the same time, various infrastructure in the resort will be improved to build the resort into a world-renowned tourist resort.
A total of 15 billion was invested in three years, which Cai Sitian did not expect.
When she first didn't know Gao Yuan, Cai Sitian also planned to build a resort here. According to the plan at the time, a total investment of 500 million was required, which was all the cash flow that Cai Hongxin could use.
Unexpectedly, after just a short time, this project suddenly turned into 15 billion.
When she first heard this number, Cai Sitian's jaw almost dropped, and she always doubted whether she could do it well.
It was better for Gao Yuan to speak and let her rest assured that he would not interfere with her management of the entire resort.
This made Cai Sitian feel relieved.
"Mr. Gao, these are the expenses for the recent period, including initial material costs and labor costs...it's almost one billion." Cai Sitian opened the door and walked into Gao Yuan's office, "I need you to review it. and sign."
It is a thick pile of information, and it will take at least about two hours to read it carefully.
"Just sign it. You don't have to come to me for review on such trivial matters in the future."
Gao Yuan waved his hand.
"But...but I..."
Cai Sitian was a little nervous.
"Be good!" Gao Yuan touched Cai Sitian's head, "You have to be on your own. This resort is for you to practice. You can't teach others in a lifetime, but you can teach them once. "
"Now the platform is given to you. You can use your talents to the fullest and don't worry about any trouble you get into. My husband will take care of it for you."
Cai Sitian nodded heavily, "Okay, I will do it well!"
She sat affectionately on Gao Yuan's lap, nestled in Gao Yuan's arms, and asked at the same time, "What do you want to eat tonight? I'll cook it for you."
The project is not important, the most important thing is to serve Gao Yuan well.
“Sichuan food!”
Gao Yuan thought, "It's been a long time since I had Sichuan food."
"good!"
Cai Si nodded sweetly and stood up to leave the office.
"etc!"
Gao Yuan stopped her and said, "Select some reliable workers from the group of workers brought here from China. I will be of use to them."
Gao Yuan took out the map of the three thousand acres of land from the drawer and drew a circle on it with a red pen, which occupied about one-third of the area.
"I have a use for this part of the place, stay here for me, and then set up a fence around here. If anyone asks, just say that our place is a late-stage project, it is still under construction, and it is not open to the public for the time being."
Later, Gao Yuan drew a small circle within this large circle, covering an area of approximately four to five hundred acres.
"Bring those reliable workers here, improve their treatment, but take away their cell phones and make them sign confidentiality agreements."
"Wait until the training base is built and then let them leave."
Hearing Gao Yuan's words, Cai Sitian was shocked, "Is this place so important?"
"Yeah!" Gao Yuan nodded, "One-third of the reason why I came to Australia is for this."
He wanted to use the military training base to continuously train batches of elite soldiers to pave the way for his future.
This military training base is so important.
The resort is just a foil.
"Understood!"
Cai Sitian took a deep breath. Although she didn't know why Gao Yuan did this, she didn't know what the usefulness of this place was.
But if you marry a chicken, follow the chicken. If you marry a dog, follow the dog.
Whatever Gao Yuan wants to do, she will only support him.
When Gao Yuan wants to tell her, he will definitely tell her.
"Go!"
Gao Yuan said.
"Then you have to kiss me."
Cai Sitian's face came closer.
"mua~~"
Feeling numb, Cai Sitian opened her mouth from ear to ear with joy, and whispered into Gao Yuan's ear, "I ordered a maid outfit and will wait for you in bed tonight."
What?
Maid outfit?
I feel excited just thinking about it.
It seems that I will be blessed tonight.
After Cai Sitian left, Gao Yuan was about to turn on his computer and handle some matters when his phone rang.
It was Zhang Yu calling.
"Boss, I have arrived in the country as you ordered."
Zhang Yu said on the other end of the phone.
"Okay, your next task is to send all the company's remaining 150 security personnel to Australia in batches. In addition, to recruit retired soldiers from the society again, the minimum requirement is to serve in the special forces for three years. ”
“Everyone’s salary will be doubled.”
After all, they are going abroad to work. If their wages are not raised, those people may not be willing to come here.
These days, only money is the most practical thing.
You can't let the horse run and don't eat grass.
Gao Yuan has never liked to paint a pie for employees. As long as the tasks are completed well, the salary will definitely satisfy the employees.
"Okay, boss!"
Zhang Yu was so happy.
When all employees' salaries are doubled, doesn't it mean that his annual salary is also doubled? One million a year?
Good guy!
If I work abroad for a few more years, I will still have a lot of money left over to buy an apartment and a car in my hometown after I return home.
When you reach your forties, you can retire and travel around the world.
After hanging up the phone, Gao Yuan opened the email on his computer.
These emails were sent by senior executives in China.
For example, Wang Sichao sent a report stating that the current number of orders for Yuanfang Auto has reached 800,000.
Compared with the number of locked orders of more than 100,000 units a day some time ago, there has been a decline, but this is normal.
After all, everyone who wants to buy a car from a distant place has already done so.
Those who were hesitant also gathered their money and locked up their orders.
The remaining people should have cars, but distant cars will not be considered during the time.
According to the big statistical model, after this wave of sales boom passes, the sales volume of Yuanfang Auto will remain at a very stable stage, with about 4,000 units sold every day and 120,000 units monthly.
Compared with other cars, the sales volume of Yuanfang Cars is far ahead.
Several other projects also sent emails explaining the recent progress of each project.
Overall, there is a thriving trend.
Li Mengqing, Xiao Xiao, and Lin Wanyu were a little agitated. People often wanted to visit Gao Yuan, but they couldn't contact Gao Yuan, so those people could only contact the three of them.
There are many leaders among these people who want to invite Gao Yuan to invest in their provinces and cities, provide jobs for local people, and promote local economic development. Those leaders also offered various preferential terms.
For example, the annual taxes paid are halved, and in terms of the authority to grant land, they can grant it at will within the scope of 5,000 acres.
As long as Gao Yuan agrees to go to their provinces and cities, he will also recommend Gao Yuan to serve as the president of various chambers of commerce, giving him a green light all the way.
It's a pity that these conditions are still far from reaching Gao Yuan.
There are also some big bosses who want to cooperate with Yuanfang Group. They not only lower their status, but also take the initiative to give up profits.
It was promised that all profits in the first three years would go to Yuanfang Group, and they would pay dividends in the fourth year.
In other words, in the next three years, they will all work for Gao Yuanbai, working hard without complaint.
…
In early October, Musk came to Australia.
His trip was very secretive and only a few people knew about it.
Gao Yuan arranged for him to stay in the manor. On the one hand, the manor now has very strong security, with a safety factor comparable to that of a United Nations safe house.
On the other hand, it is also to facilitate communication with Musk.
Prevent Musk from leaking the chat information between the two.
"Mr. Gao, why do I feel like I've entered a wolf's den?"
At the moment they met, Musk smiled and said, "I am here alone, and you are responsible for my safety."
"Don't worry, Musk, you can stay here with peace of mind." Gao Yuan said.
It is impossible for Musk to encounter danger in the manor.
"Mr. Gao, I just like your confident expression." Musk said, "I have met all the businessmen in your country, and they can be roughly divided into two types of people. The first type is extremely humble, and even Dare to put your wealth on the bright side.”
"The second type is extremely arrogant. In your words, it is called bragging. I once met a CEO named Yang, who is the head of the largest computer manufacturer in your country. When I communicated with him, he They say that their company is very powerful and it will not be a problem for them to make more profits than Tesla within five years.”
"Mr. Gao Yuan does not belong to these two types of people. You are full of confidence. I particularly like dealing with people like you because you speak very straightforwardly and do not mince words."
Musk has met many businessmen over the years, and only Gao Yuan gave him the best feeling.
"Hahaha, Mr. Musk described it very accurately."
Gao Yuan smiled.
There are indeed many such bosses in China.
Either be extremely humble and cautious, or be so high-profile that everyone in the world knows about it.
After chatting for a while, the two got down to business.
Musk handed a document to Gao Yuan.
"What? It's an aircraft carrier?"
After seeing the words on the document, Gao Yuan became uneasy.
This thing is a national-level weapon with long-range strike capabilities. Of course, the most important thing is strategic deterrence.
As long as there are aircraft carriers, most countries will not dare to provoke them.
After reading the document in surprise, Gao Yuan got a rough idea.
This is a decommissioned aircraft carrier with all its sophisticated weapons removed. The current price is $150 billion.
It can be converted into soft sister coins of about one trillion.
Gao Yuan's net worth is more than one trillion. It is not impossible to buy this aircraft carrier, but he has to sell most of his properties.
These properties are all high-quality assets, and it is not cost-effective to sell them now.
In addition, the aircraft carrier is too bulky. Even if it is bought back, it will not be suitable to put it there.
Moreover, the politicians in Musk's country are not vegetarians and will definitely investigate those who buy aircraft carriers. In front of the country, no matter how secretive Gao Yuan does, he will definitely be found out.
No matter how greedy those politicians are, they would not dare to sell the aircraft carrier to Gao Yuan. This would cause them to lose their heads.
"Musk, this document means nothing to me."
Gao Yuan shook his head.
The weapons above are really too terrifying.
If he bought it now, there would be no place to place it, which would directly expose himself.
In this way, I'm afraid the whole world will know that he bought an aircraft carrier, and all kinds of troubles will ensue. .
Gao Yuan's current status and identity are indeed very powerful, but they are far from being able to compete with the country.
"Can you get me a list of weapons sold by China to other countries?"
Gao Yuan asked.
"Hold on!"
Musk left the house and made a phone call outside.
About a few minutes later, Musk came back and sent a file to Gao Yuan's mobile phone.
The document indicates that China wants to sell weapons, which are mainly light weapons.
Weapons of mass destruction, such as rockets, are controlled and are generally only exported to some tycoon countries, such as the oil giants in the Middle East.
People in those countries spend a lot of money and don't use things after buying them. They are just for decoration.
The most important thing is that after selling those weapons, the control of these weapons is still in the hands of China, and whether they are used externally requires China's consent.
Gao Yuan can get these small weapons by himself even without entrusting Tomask, so this list is not of much use to Gao Yuan.
"Let's talk about the SpaceX project." Gao Yuan sighed.
The full name of SpaceX is Space Exploration Technology Company. It is a company founded by Musk in 2002. Its core goal is to reduce the cost of space transportation and promote the Mars immigration plan.
Musk has completed the first fully private manned space mission in human history.
Currently, it has developed Falcon series launch vehicles and Dragon series spacecraft, and has the ability to manufacture, launch, recover and reuse launch vehicles.
Three years ago, the SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft sent four astronauts to the International Space Station to perform a mission.
Currently, SpaceX has more than 250,000 Internet users, with annual bookings exceeding US$300 million. Last year's total revenue reached US$8 billion, and the company's valuation is around US$200 billion.
Compared with other industries owned by Musk, SpaceX is not the most profitable, but it is definitely full of technology and is an emerging industry in the future.
Musk’s obsession with immigrating to Mars is not ordinary.
"Mr. Gao, according to the most optimistic estimates, within three years, we can send ordinary people to travel in space.
According to my idea, the cost of a single trip will be more than 500,000 US dollars, which is about 4 million when converted into your country's currency. "
Musk said.
This is not the first time he has said this. As early as last year on Twitter, Musk had made bold claims to realize space travel in just a few years, allowing people with space dreams to go into space to pursue their dreams.
"I have roughly estimated that after the launch of the space tourism business, our company's annual net profit will exceed 50 billion U.S. dollars, and the company's market value will reach about one trillion U.S. dollars!"
