"There is actually nothing on the ground. Domestic agricultural schools have gained a lot of experience in the past few years. Don't look at the fact that in the past, physical cultivation was mainly done by foreign companies, and we only built greenhouses and so on..."
"Isn't the International Soilless Cultivation Conference held in Shanghai a while ago? Those people from the Ni Kingdom even found us secretly and shyly said that we could share technology and jointly fund the construction of a space plant factory..."
Director Niu laughed loudly: "Then what? Why haven't I heard about this?"
"Then everyone was laughing and joking about it. I only found out when I listened to Professor Duan and the others chatting." Ye Ming laughed as he said: "He doesn't know what other people can do about a job like growing vegetables.
Comparable to us...and growing vegetables is actually not the key. The key is to achieve self-sufficiency in staple food plants."
Director Niu nodded with deep understanding.
Establishing a base on the moon and building a space city at the Earth-Moon Lagrange point is no longer a prospect, but an established goal and plan, written into the 15th Five-Year Plan!
In the 15th Five-Year Plan, the comprehensive construction of the lunar factory base will be completed by 2030, creating a large-scale industrial base integrating scientific research, production, and living, and achieving the goal of annual production of 250 tons of helium 3.
——According to numerous speculations, according to the existing conversion rate and current global energy consumption, 120 tons can actually meet the world's energy needs.
But obviously, such speculation is only considered from the perspective of electricity, and not from the perspective of promoting other industries after the energy revolution.
For example, artificial water, three-dimensional planting, universal access to trams, artificial starch, synthetic meat, etc.
In the plan, these five years will be the running stage of "running into the GCZY society" - first ignite the fire of the energy revolution!
In addition to the lunar factory, the planning of the space city is slightly behind.
According to the current domestic space flight technology and conditions, there is no substantial technical difference between landing on the moon and landing in space. It is nothing more than burning more helium 3 - this thing is really not expensive once it is industrialized.
The industrial base of the moon is completely dependent on domestic planning. Even if it has already cooperated with the international community, according to the information Ye Ming knows, the cooperation model will most likely be other cooperation partners. "Just give money and it will be done."
"Sir", don't worry about other things, and don't think about core technology - unless you go to heaven and choose the land yourself.
In addition, as the basis of the energy revolution, the lunar factory must move much faster and must move as quickly as possible.
But Space City is different.
The planning of the space city is domestically led and then co-constructed by the international community.
According to the current plan, the total investment in the space city has reached five trillion yuan - yes, you heard it right, five trillion, RMB standard.
It is obviously unrealistic for such a huge investment to be financed entirely domestically.
Now the country is facing a new industry and energy revolution, and there are a large number of people who need to be fed...
The landlord's family also has no surplus food...
Therefore, calling for international cooperation is the only option.
The benefits of this are also obvious. On the one hand, it can alleviate domestic pressure, on the other hand, it can also strengthen international relations through cooperation. More importantly, it can promote the international circulation of soft currency against the US dollar.
——Last year, the country’s GDP surpassed that of the United States, and it was still measured in US dollars.
But this year...it is said that the country has begun to unify the caliber, no longer refer to any number of US dollars, and completely use RMB as the standard.
As a 5 trillion yuan space city that can eventually accommodate 10,000 people, it must be a long-term super project that may even last for more than ten years.
Therefore, in the 15th Five-Year Plan, the space city will only build core energy sources and preliminary living and scientific research areas, and the rest will have to be built slowly.
For such a huge space city, it must be self-sufficient.
the reason is simple.
Because an "unknown celestial body" is returning.
Who knows what it will do to the orbit of the solar system?
What impact will it have? If it happens to affect the earth, then this space city will become a tool for the next generation of humans to run away with buckets.
…
Ye Ming briefly introduced to Director Niu the technical plan for the three-dimensional factory in the future, which is to strive for full automation in space planting, while semi-automatic planting on the ground can be considered, and manual labor can be introduced.
"Okay, let's wait until your plan is implemented." Director Niu glanced at his watch, stood up, thought for a while and then smiled: "Is this thing free from pests and diseases, and pollution-free?"
"Um...it seems so."
"Then if we package the space vegetables, wouldn't it be possible to sell them immediately?"
Ye Ming couldn't laugh or cry: "No matter how poor you are, you won't spend time on this, right?"
"Hahaha - don't tell me, it's the end of the year soon." Director Niu looked at Ye Ming meaningfully: "This year, we must prepare to distribute relief funds, and you will also share dividends."
Ye Ming coughed lightly: "I'm not responsible for finances. It's useless for you to tell me."
"Mao is useless." Director Niu glanced at him: "Tell me, how much can I share?"
The financial affairs of JiZhi Technology are directly determined by the board of directors composed of several major funds - to put it bluntly, it is the CZB level, so the confidentiality level is quite high. Although Director Niu has a high Aita level, he obviously does not include checking JiZhi
The financial health of technology.
Ye Ming knew that Lao Niu was just curious, so he smiled and shook his head: "We haven't calculated it yet, but I estimate that we can divide it between 500 and 600 billion."
Director Niu's eyes widened instantly and he took a deep breath.
"Our operating costs are low." Ye Ming pursed his lips and exhaled softly: "Jizhi Technology currently only has two thousand people, not to mention those big Internet companies that often have tens of thousands of people, even small Internet companies
None of them can compare. Moreover, employee salaries are not as outrageously high as outsiders speculate. They are at the level of major Internet companies, but much easier."
"But behind the scenes, we rely on Aita to run the entire company. It can even be said to be extreme. If we introduce robots in all fields, the number of people can be reduced... I even think that even the sweeping lady can be eliminated.
Aita can complete the operation of the entire production and management system."
Ye Ming pursed his lips, and a light flashed in his eyes: "Actually, this is also the future society I imagine... Strong artificial intelligence can do everything for us, and humans only need to follow their interests and curiosity."
Director Niu also squinted his eyes and looked forward for a while, then nodded with a smile: "Let's encourage each other."
Ye Ming stood up and prepared to see off the guests: "Let's encourage each other."
"By the way, get rid of the thought of God." He said with a smile before leaving the house.
Ye Ming was stunned for a moment and immediately went crazy: "What the hell? Who is the big-mouthed snitch?"
——During the meeting, he casually mentioned that he should go to the moon to take a look at some time. After that, a group of people started to persuade him randomly.
Unexpectedly, it actually reached Lao Niu’s ears.
Director Niu laughed loudly, turned around and went out.
"I am the one who has wiped out all the dirt in front of my house, and there is not a single tile on the roof!"
…
Three days later, 3001 successfully completed the mission and returned to Dalian.
Ye Ming did not go to the scene in person, but communicated with the crew through remote meetings. According to feedback, the officers and soldiers were very satisfied with 3001.
After all, most of these people come from sea ships. Compared with the cramped space and inconvenience of sea ships, the atmospheric and high-tech design of 3001 is simply a paradise-like experience.
But if I have to say a shortcoming, it is that the public activity space in 3001 may be a little small. It is fine for a short period of time, or when performing highly stressful tasks, but if you really have to stay for several months... it is indeed still
A bit boring.
In essence, the space battleship is still a big stuffy tank.
Coupled with militarized management, it is definitely impossible not to be bored.
Although this shortcoming was "forced" to be "finded" by the design team, and the officers and soldiers also said that there was no problem at all, the design team was still concerned.
.
In the end, Ye Ming said that there is no way to change the design now, but a set of simulation training programs can be developed, such as star sea exploration, combat drills, etc.
He didn't talk about games.
Ye Ming saw that the representatives attending the meeting immediately brightened up.
——Obviously, the early adaptive VR training left a deep impression on these officers and soldiers.
Of course, Ye Ming only has the right to make suggestions, not decisions. His task is to make the officers and soldiers feel comfortable while maintaining their combat effectiveness. Just because soldiers are a noble profession, they cannot be allowed to endure hardship and dedication unconditionally.
endure loneliness.
Moreover, space battleships actually need technical arms and engineers with extremely high scientific literacy...
In fact, Ye Ming still has something to say, which is that future wars may only be related to industrial capabilities and have nothing to do with people.
The profession of soldier will disappear.
…
Time flies so fast, the calendar of 2026 turns over in a blink of an eye, and we come to 2027.
In his New Year's Day speech, President Xi Jinping summarized this year.
The top priority is definitely the invitation to the moon, followed by the return of the other side, and then the plans and prospects for next year.
The speech proposed that starting from 2027, the minimum amounts of various livelihood insurances such as subsistence allowances, rural pension insurance, and unemployment insurance will be further increased to further achieve common prosperity.
At the same time, it was also proposed that in order to expand employment and reduce labor costs, the corporate tax system will also be reformed from 2007. Taxation of various labor-intensive enterprises, small and medium-sized enterprises, and the tertiary industry will be based on the number of employees, etc.
Proportional adjustments were made and new minimum wage standards were stipulated at the same time.
It was also proposed that we should vigorously promote the industrial application of strong artificial intelligence to enhance the country's comprehensive national strength and international competitiveness. We should also vigorously promote the energy replacement of controllable nuclear fusion to further guide the energy revolution.
Of course, I have not forgotten that this year, I will continue to work hard in the field of space exploration and look up at the stars.

"The country is indeed getting richer and richer."
Sitting on the sofa, the father looked at his son and said with emotion: "It feels like we are running into the GCZY society?"
"It's still early." Ye Ming stood up with a smile and walked to the basement: "Dad, let me go and see Yin Ta."
"Go ahead, I don't know what she is doing these days. If you ask her, you won't understand everything she says."
Ye Ming laughed.
Yin Ta is now trying to design a high-dimensional membrane generator based on his ideas. It would be crazy if his father understood it.
