Chapter 1600 [The cake that belongs to the stars cannot escape]

For a 2,000-kilometer-long super canal, the Sat tycoon has given a budget of US$1 trillion. On average, it is US$500 million per kilometer. This cost is more than four times more expensive than building a subway.

In fact, it doesn’t cost that much money at all. It can be built even if the budget is cut by half, 500 billion US dollars. In the eyes of domestic engineering and construction companies, it is still a fairy-level project with huge profits. Even if it is cut even more, it can still be built. There is profit.

But in this case, it is really just money to build the canal, but in this case, Dongda may not accept it.

Sat tycoons understand technology. What they really want is the "value-added services". What value-added services are they? For security and industry, at least half of the 1 trillion budget is for value-added services.

Rich people may have a lot of money, but they are not stupid at all.

In fact, it is far more than 1 trillion U.S. dollars, and subsequent supporting facilities have to keep up. Even wealthy people cannot bear such a large expenditure and have to borrow money, which in turn has to pay a huge interest cost.

Only by being willing to spend a lot of money can Dongda find no reason to refuse to accept this project.

But at this moment, after Fang Hong guessed with interest, Tian Jiayi nodded slowly: "Sate wants to borrow a loan of 220 billion US dollars from Qunxing. The interest is not low, the annual interest is 5.5 percentage points, and the total loan is 30 Year."

Hearing this, Fang Hong couldn't help being slightly surprised: "The annual interest is 5.54 percentage points? The interest is higher than the principal. The Sat tycoon really doesn't want to give me a reason to refuse."

The annual interest rate is 5.5 percentage points, which means that it has to pay US$12.1 billion in interest to Qunxing Group every year. For a full 30 years, that is a total interest of US$363 billion. Plus the principal, the total principal and interest is US$583 billion.

Of course, if this transaction is completed, all settlements in the future will definitely not be settled in US dollars. The US dollar's hegemony will only have five or eight years to live. In the future, settlements in RMB will definitely have to be used. These are minor issues. When the time comes, Just convert it to equivalent value and settle it.

Originally, the Sat tycoon building this canal had little direct relationship with the Qunxing Group. He would not get much of the cake because Qunxing was not involved in much in the field of infrastructure projects and was mainly Guo Jia's enterprise group.

Of course, Qunxing Group will definitely have many related companies that will benefit indirectly, and will also receive some projects, such as intelligent engineering equipment, unmanned and other new equipment technologies, and will provide technical service support in this area.

As a non-bank financial giant, Qunxing Group itself will basically not participate in it.

But if the Saudi tycoons want to seek financing support, there is definitely the possibility of Stars Group directly participating. Now the tycoons have directly asked Stars for loans by name, and they want to borrow an astronomical figure of US$220 billion, and they are offering such a generous offer. The interest is really hard to refuse.

Fang Hong laughed dumbly, and after a while he couldn't help but said to himself: "There is indeed something about Xiao Saman."

The reason why the local tycoon is so tyrannical is not because he is stupid and has too much money, but because he wants the stars to actively promote this matter. Only when he is given enough big benefits, will the stars have enough motivation and reason to promote this matter.

In this way, the possibility that this project can be implemented will be greatly increased.

Fang Hong thought for a while and said with a smile: "This little Sa Le Man has a good eye for the opportunity..."

Obviously, Xiao Saman probably saw that Qunxing Group had harvested 3.13 trillion U.S. dollars. There was no place to live for so much money, and the depreciation every day just lying there was astronomical. If it could be lent out, not only could it avoid wealth Depreciation can also earn interest to maintain and increase the value.

"Xiao Sa Leman's thoughts, haha..." Fang Hong suddenly smiled faintly and threw such a big piece of cake to Qunxing. It must not be as simple as lack of money, but Xiao Sa Leman wanted Qunxing Group to promote it. The canal project provides a workhorse.

The logic here is not complicated. Xiao Saman throws such a big piece of cake to Qunxing. If Qunxing accepts it, he will be a supporter of this canal project. Only when the project starts, Shate will ask Qunxing for high interest rates. loan.

There is no such thing as a free lunch in the world. Fang Hong can certainly see the meaning behind this.

But this is a big deal. This canal project has a huge impact on the geostrategic landscape. It is not a simple commercial project. Fang Hong cannot become a lobbyist for Xiao Saman for the sake of profit. Regardless of whether the result is It is in the interests of the country, and these are taboo things.

If the superiors don't ask about this matter, Fang Hong won't say anything. If the superiors ask for advice, then they will just make suggestions, that's all.

Xiao Sa Leman obviously didn't understand this truth, let alone Fang Hong. Fang Hong was very clear-headed about such matters and remained calm and rational in the face of huge interests.

After a while, Tian Jiayi asked: "Do you want to borrow this money?"

Fang Hong thought briefly, and then said calmly: "Let's report this matter first. As for the local tyrants, let's study it first and then make a reply."

If the higher-ups decided to help the local tycoons build this super canal, Qunxing would definitely need a big piece of the pie, because even the tycoon's Sater couldn't afford that much money, and Ya Investment Bank couldn't lend that much money.

Then the only choice is to go to the Qunxing Group, which has so much money that it is worrying about having no place to spend it. The higher ups will definitely allocate this piece of cake to Qunxing. Not only because Qunxing has so much money now that it has no place to spend it, but also because Qunxing is already half of the group. The state accounts for more than half of Guo Jia's company's total shares, and Qunxing seems to be half of the state.

In this case, Fang Hong was naturally calm and confident, and not in a hurry at all. As long as this super canal was dug, the cake that belonged to the Qunxing Group would not be able to escape.

…

In the next few days, the heat gradually shifted, and everyone's vision was focused on Xingyu Technology.

The company's autumn product launch conference arrived as scheduled. Xingyu Technology's autumn launch conference was a special event for new energy vehicles, and smartphones, smart head displays and other products were summer launch conferences.

This time, Xingyu Technology directly launched 4 models in one go, namely the fourth-generation product of the multi-purpose vehicle SCU and the fourth-generation product of the sedan SCN. Each model has a pure electric type and a hybrid type.

The fourth-generation product has not changed much in appearance compared with the previous generation, but its software and hardware have been greatly upgraded. The cruising range has not changed much because it is enough, but the new generation of products with the same cruising range is more energy-efficient and further reduces travel costs, with an energy-saving rate of 17.3% compared with the previous generation.

In addition, the biggest highlight of the fourth-generation product is that it has a wireless fast charging function, which can be fully charged in just 3 hours.

With this function, the vehicle charging will not need to be done by people in the future. With the assistance of the intelligent driving system, the vehicle will find the charging pile for wireless charging.

At this press conference, Xingyu Technology not only released the new generation of U series and N series products, but also released two million-level luxury cars of R series and A series, namely the multi-purpose SCR and sedan SCA.

If the N series and U series products are for the middle-income group, then the million-level R series and A series products are for the high-net-worth income group, that is, the cars of various bosses.
