Compared with the huge losses caused to all countries in the world after the asteroid really hit the earth, so many countries can exchange such a little money for peace. As long as the people with no bad brain know that the money is not too cost-effective.
"Mr. Jiang, you are not popular enough to swallow the elephant. Our company has made so much money by taking advantage of this opportunity. If we don't pay the price, we will feel something wrong.
Besides, the money is very hot. We don't want it to affect our exclusive use of the big watermelon Tian Mingli said with a smile.
His words also made everyone in the conference room laugh, because after the discussion just now, it is obvious that the company is ready to refuse the money that others want to force to their company.
From the company's point of view, they have already made a lot of profits in this crisis, so the internal estimated operation fund is only 3 billion US dollars at most. This small money is still willing to pay by themselves. This kind of opportunity to accumulate huge merits for their own company is not much.
Although we all believe in science, there is a certain truth in what can be inherited from the tradition of Chinese civilization. The benefits brought by the great amount of merit and virtue may not be as mysterious as those in Xianxia novels. However, from a sociological point of view, this kind of good deed will definitely benefit the future development of the company.
Therefore, after a meeting and discussion at the company's top management, the great justice of infinite gravity group refused the funds prepared by various countries, including its own government, for this operation. Even the US government and maple leaf country refused the 20 billion US dollars of operation funds withheld reluctantly.
It's not that the infinite gravitation group has money and doesn't know how to take it, but the company has a deeper interest consideration, and a bigger profit is waiting for them. If they take the money, there will be more wrangles!
Therefore, the company publicized the crisis resolution action to the outside world as a technical verification action of the company's asteroid belt mining technology. Since it is a verification technology, it is obviously not appropriate to receive external funds.
Anyway, it's not black on the side of the old US government. The company says that they have the ability to promote this asteroid. So we can use it to verify in advance whether the company's asteroid belt mining technology can work or not!
The company has been working hard on this technology for a long time. Although it has not really planned to go to the asteroid belt to exploit resources, the simulation and verification of the first generation technology has been carried out for a long time. If there is such a good opportunity this time, they are willing to take it out for actual inspection.
And you can also use the optical and video equipment on board to launch a live broadcast, which can show the asteroid in its original state before they started to build it.
Through a comprehensive display of its previous appearance, we can use the facts to solve the silly conspiracy theory that the asteroid was pushed by the infinite gravity group to change its orbit, which was concocted by the old US government. If their company had moved this asteroid before, it could not have seen any trace on it, right?
What else can the infinite gravitation group use in space, such as electromagnetic propulsion, air gun propulsion, etc., that can change its orbit without touching the asteroid? Obviously this is impossible!
Moreover, this purpose is only by-pass, and the more critical place comes - since it is the infinite gravitation group to verify its technology, and it does not take the money from other countries, it is the object of technology verification - that the ownership of the asteroid 202203ev07 belongs to the infinite gravitation group, of course?
It's a big guy with a weight of more than 560000 tons. Compared with the moon, Mars and even other asteroids in the asteroid belt, its size is pitiful, but its unique point is that it is delivered to the door towards the earth!
Compared with taking a distant asteroid and dragging an asteroid with the same size and weight as this one to exploit the resources above, it is obvious that the price of the asteroid delivered to the door is several times smaller than that of the asteroid!
In this case, the infinite gravitation group does not want to dispute the ownership of this asteroid because it collects tens of billions of dollars. It is obviously a matter that is not worth the loss!
You know, according to the calculation of experts on the side of the company, this small star is itself, and the weight of iron and other metals is about 130000 tons.
Even if the price of these metals is calculated according to the price of 2000 RMB per ton of the most common iron, the value of these metals will reach 2600 billion RMB, which will be more than 400 billion US dollars in US dollars!
This value is more than 10 times of the funds that governments plan to give to the infinite gravity group, not to mention that the metals on the asteroid include nickel, a small amount of chromium and other rare metals with less content besides the most common iron. Although the content of these metals is not very high, the price is much higher than that of iron.
And that's still the value of these metals calculated according to the price on earth. If you want to mine such a large amount of metals in space, even the infinite gravitation group will have to spend tens of billions of dollars, not to mention other countries with poorer technological capabilities.So the value of the metal on this asteroid alone is enough to drive people crazy, not to mention its importance to the relevant space strategy of the infinite gravitation group!
If you can get so many resources in space ahead of time, it will obviously be of great help to the company's solar system migration program. Those plans that had to wait until enough resources were mined from the moon could be greatly advanced with the support of these resources!
At the very least, their company's plan to build a super space factory in space can be ahead of time. The main reason why they didn't start the plan before was that they needed too many materials.
So many resources can be sent from the earth to space, or from the moon, and the cost of transportation and time is unacceptable to the current level of the company.
But now that we have this asteroid that comes home automatically, and it also contains so many metal resources needed to build a super space factory, we can start the construction plan ahead of time!
If this space factory can be built ahead of schedule, the company's promotion of the solar system colonization program can be said to be a rocket like upgrade from a racing car!
