Two months later.
After a fierce battle, Blacklight Technology finally signed an agreement with the two major nuclear industry groups in Zhongzhou District.
Blacklight Biotechnology will contract the "Blacklight Biotechnology Namibia Nuclear Power Plant" project to CGN and China National Nuclear Corporation in the form of general engineering contracting. The two companies will contract all construction engineering and technology, and CNNC will supply the required building materials.
The "Black Light Nuclear Power Plant" is a third-generation nuclear reactor with two CAP1400 pressurized water reactors with a power of 1 million kilowatts, with a total power of 2 million kilowatts. The project construction area is approximately 15 square kilometers.
Blacklight Technology has a total investment of US$4.3 billion, which will pay US$1.4 billion for CGN's construction costs and US$2.9 billion for CNNC's technology, construction and material costs.
Of this amount, Blacklight Technology's first payment is US$2.3 billion, and half of the remaining US$2 billion comes from Zhongzhou Bank's "overseas investment loan."
As for the remaining funds worth more than one billion, a company called Zhongzhou Electronics Group paid for Chen Chen.
The reason is that this company first contacted Blacklight Corporation and expressed its willingness to acquire Blacklight Technology's simultaneous translators at a price of 7 billion Zhongzhou coins, plus loan interest exemptions and favorable policies for Blacklight Technology. device technology.
In fact, this represents the official meaning.
Obviously, the AI in the original "Little
Xia Yin asked Chen Chen, and Chen Chen naturally had no objection.
These conditions seemed like Chen Chen was at a disadvantage. After all, the technology that could subvert the translation industry would cost more than that. But in fact, there were some invisible benefits that could not be measured in terms of money.
For ordinary people, these conditions are definitely not as good as tens of billions of buyouts, but for those who dare to climb up at the slightest opportunity, it is completely different.
In Chen Chen's view, these conditions are the basis for whether a company can take root, rise and develop in the Zhongzhou District in the long term.
To put it simply, Chen Chen used the technology of simultaneous translation in exchange for an opportunity, an opportunity to become a company like Tencent and Ali.
Moreover, the official acquisition is only technology, which does not affect Chen Chen's further earning money. As long as other countries let it go, Chen Chen can still sell it all over the world and intimidate Xiao Xiao.
At this point, Chen Chen had basically spent all the US$4 billion he had earned. Not only was it all spent, but he also owed the bank more than US$1 billion.
However, Chen Chen's mentality showed no fluctuation, and he even wanted to laugh a little.
After half a year of fermentation, "Little
Subtracting the sky-high tolls on each platform, the monthly net income of this software is temporarily maintained at around 20 million US dollars, which can only be said to be a drop in the bucket for Chen Chen's expenses.
Although it is not as huge a profit as imagined, it is still a steady stream. After all, it is a unique technology in the world, and sooner or later it will become a money-making artifact.
Before the simultaneous translation technology was sold to the authorities, Xia Yin actually encountered a kidnapping, involving a total of five kidnappers.
However, this group of people only sneaked into the company building. Before they could carry out the operation, they all fell down one after another for unknown reasons. The police still judged the five people as kidnappers based on their foreign status.
And since then, nothing like this has happened again.
In the past two months, Chen Chen had nothing to do. He bought a 1,000-hectare vacant land near Walvis Bay and established a large-scale biological experiment center.
This project was outsourced to China National Nuclear Power Plant together with the nuclear power plant, but a batch of materials were shipped before the nuclear power plant.
Because Chen Chen chose the fastest pure steel modular design, just like building building blocks, in just a few days, a biological experiment center covering an area of 100,000 square meters was erected south of Walvis Bay Port.
Standing at the same time as the laboratory are thousands of solar photovoltaic panels, each with a power of 6kW.
A thousand solar panels, almost as far as the eye can see, cover 1,000 hectares of land.
In mid-April, when the "Blacklight Biotechnology Namibia Nuclear Power Plant" project was about to start, the "Blacklight Biotechnology Experiment Center" had been successfully completed.
In the past two months, the biological equipment purchased from Switzerland finally passed the export review and was shipped to Namibia piece by piece.
"Please see, this is your future experimental center."
On the day of completion, a group of construction leaders gathered around Chen Chen. One of them pointed at the solar-powered columnar building in front of him with a smile and said, "Completely following the ideas you provided, we will design the first and second floors. It became a duplex structure and formed an experimental hall with an area of an astonishing 5,000 square meters."
"At the same time, the main entrance of the experimental building is on the second floor. To enter the building from the main entrance, you need to go up the outdoor stairs first. After entering, you can immediately see the vast lobby and office area."
With that said, the guide led Chen Chen and the others into the experimental building.
"Of course, there is also a side door on the first floor. If you don't want to go up to the second floor, you can choose the side door to enter. The rooms surrounding the second floor can be used as offices, lounges and storage rooms."
"As for the underground level, it is the parking lot."
As he spoke, the guide took Chen Chen and others to the third floor in the elevator, "The third floor is still the office space. In addition, there is a large conference hall that can accommodate a thousand people, which can be used for meetings of the entire institute's employees. We didn’t officially enter the experimental site until the fourth floor.”
"The laboratories on the fourth floor are basically basic laboratories, and four data rooms and two computer rooms are also built here."
After reaching the fourth floor, the guide did not take everyone up, but explained directly, "The fifth and sixth floors are more than a dozen biological laboratories with different functions, with different levels from BSL-4 to BSL-3."
"The top floor is composed of four complete sets of biological laboratories, which are currently under construction. They are two sets of cell laboratories and two sets of animal laboratories. Each set of laboratories has a complete dressing area, filtration Zones, buffer zones, disinfection areas and other areas have specially set up positive pressure protective clothing, air-tight doors, chemical showers, air filtration systems and other facilities."
"And the entire seventh floor is completely enclosed. The four sets of laboratories inside are all BSL-4 and ABSL-4, the highest levels in the world."
Chen Chen nodded, "There is no need to visit this for now. We will wait until the construction is completed. Let's visit the other two dormitories and activity buildings first."
"Okay, please come with me..."
A group of people left the experimental building again and walked towards the newly built dormitory building next to the experimental building.
After walking out of the experimental building, Chen Chen looked back at the experimental building, with a flash of emotion in his eyes.
Many people don't understand why Chen Chen would spend huge sums of money to build a BSL-4 experimental center in such a poor country.
After all, BSL-4 laboratories are very rare in the entire federation, and most of them are state-owned.
What's more, the cost of importing materials alone is two to three times that of a research center located in Switzerland, not to mention the shortage of personnel, medical and other supplies.
If Switzerland is a paradise in the biological field, then here is an unexplored desert.
Only Chen Chen understood that if he continued to develop in Switzerland, it might be much easier than it is now, but it was like farmland that had already been occupied by others. He only rented the other party's land, and once the food was grown after hard work, he had to pay More than half way out.
Only by reclaiming the desert can we extract the maximum benefits.
