In the conference room, Yuan Zhao proudly sat down face to face with the representative of the Holy Land, or the Prime Minister of the Holy Land, Riduguleng.
Yuan Zhao didn't have any more nonsense to say. He had already said the polite words before. Now in the conference room, he got straight to the point. Yuan Zhao took out a form and said, "Satellite pricing is here. Rocket transportation prices are also here."
I started looking at the results of Riduguleng.
First, the satellite itself, just an empty shell, costs 500 million yuan, of course including the basic energy system, but it has no functions.
In addition, it includes mobile phone voice communication, network communication, picture image conversion technology, positioning technology, tracking technology, satellite interconnection technology; there is also a camera function, including normal light photography, infrared remote sensing, aura remote sensing, master remote sensing technology, etc.
There are dozens of items, and the minimum bid for each project is 20 million taels of gold; among them, the more advanced infrared remote sensing technology, aura remote sensing technology, and aircraft/flying car/missile navigation technology, the asking price is as high as 500 million taels of gold each.
The second thing is rockets, which are calculated by kilograms. The first weight is 50 kilograms, which costs 800 million taels of gold. For every additional kilogram, 20 million taels of gold will be charged. If the weight is less than one kilogram, it will be calculated as one kilogram. Even if it exceeds one gram, it will not be allowed.
In addition, the launch distance of the rocket must also be calculated. The rocket must take off from the East China Sea of Shangguo, which means that different countries need different distances if they want to hang their customized satellites above their heads.
Jiuchongtian Group provides a basic starting point of 10,000 kilometers; for those exceeding 10,000 kilometers but within 100,000 kilometers, one thousand taels of gold will be charged per kilometer, and those less than one kilometer will be calculated as one kilometer.
For those whose mileage is more than 100,000 kilometers but less than one million kilometers, two thousand taels of gold will be charged for each kilometer. For those whose mileage is more than one million kilometers, five thousand taels of gold will be charged for each kilometer.
Finally, there are additional conditions:
If the rocket launch fails in Shang State, Jiuchongtian Group will only bear half of the direct losses.
If the customer specifies the launch site and the rocket launch fails, Jiuchongtian Group does not assume any responsibility.
After reading these conditions, Riduguleng also took a deep breath and said, "What harsh conditions!"
"Of course!" Yuan Zhao did not shy away from the question. "Rockets are the jewel of all science and technology, and launching them is full of risks. Sending a target to the outer world from the ground, relying entirely on the power of machines, is the greatest feat in the history of the Immortal Realm, or even the Holy Land. It is normal that there is no guarantee of 100% success."
Yes, it is indeed normal! For something as serious as Ascension, the success rate is pitifully low—even if the Ascension channel is not blocked.
But even if Yuan Zhao explained it as "normal", the cost of launching a rocket is not a small number.
Riduguleng looked at the back and saw a few more "set meals":
Package 1: Basic (1.3 billion taels of gold) + 2 sets of voice communication modules (40 million) + 1 set of image modules (50 million) + 1 set of satellite photography modules (200 million), totaling 1.59 billion taels of gold.
The overall mass is controlled within 30 kg, and there is no need to increase the rocket load cost. This package can meet the basic military needs of a country.
