Chapter 973: Small planes and flying cars

,!

In this meeting, he didn't talk about the interstellar ship project, and left it to them to plan internally. He didn't bother to intervene. Anyway, he had already done what should be done, and left the rest to them.

During the meeting with Guo Dongsheng, President of Wancheng Foundation, Ye Zishu was particularly concerned about the sales of their real estate projects, and hoped that they could make a good plan and step by step to achieve their sales goals.

They have a large number of real estate properties in their hands, and it is impossible to sell them in a rush, which is prone to problems, and arrangements must be made in advance to avoid confusion.

Now that people have money in their hands, the demand for buying real estate is very strong. Domestic real estate prices are rising year by year. Even in his small county, the price per square meter has risen to 15,000 square meters.

If it weren't for the good income, such a price would actually be very high, but compared to the income, it is not too harsh, so there is no intention of taking action to curb the housing price.

Housing prices in big cities are not low. After all, the wealth accumulated in big cities is very large. Although the average salary may not be high, the number of rich people is not low. High housing prices are normal.

Wancheng Foundation can take out excellent locations and real estate first, and sell them to rich people at a higher price. In this regard, it does not need to talk about inclusiveness, and how much money they can make from the rich is their ability.

However, this cannot be done for real estate sold to ordinary working-class people. First, we must respect the laws of the market. It is Wancheng Jiye itself that will lose in the end if it leaves the market.

The second is to take care of the reality, so that ordinary working-class people can afford housing, and the burden should not be too heavy. It is not appropriate to set the total price of real estate within 10 years of the per capita income level.

Therefore, on the basis of market prices, it is necessary to provide discounts for the first homes of ordinary wage earners, so as to reduce the pressure of most families to buy their first homes.

At the same time, let the banks under Tidal Group provide loans with lower interest rates. He believes that about 3% is more appropriate, and the minimum down payment ratio is still 30% of the total purchase price.

As for the second and later properties of the family, mortgages are provided at the normal loan interest rate, because in his opinion, the behavior of buying houses after the second set is an investment, so don't think about it if you want to get a discount.

In the initial stage, only families without real estate are accepted for purchase, and families with existing real estate are temporarily not open to purchase. At the same time, foreign investors are also prevented from purchasing, and priority is given to meeting rigid needs.

When everyone has a house, there will be no so many restrictions, but when everyone has their own housing, speculation will be meaningless. The purpose of this is to prevent foreign capital from harvesting domestic wealth.

He does not object to people investing in real estate, but he is against speculating in real estate. Naturally, he doesn't want to see what happened in his previous life, even if he makes money.

At the same time, he also asked Wancheng Jiye to keep 5% to 10% of the real estate in each location.

Used as urban housing regulation.

After all, there is also the migration of people between cities. If all the properties are sold, it will easily cause housing prices to rise in the short term. Therefore, it is necessary to keep some real estate on hand.

To avoid the situation of choosing a fake divorce for the sake of discount, Ye Zishu asked Wancheng Foundation to stipulate that only married families can enjoy this discount.

Although this is unfriendly to single and unmarried people, it avoids social chaos and even reduces the pressure on young people to buy a house before getting married.

Because it is obviously more cost-effective to buy a house after marriage. As long as both parties are rational people, buying a house after marriage is the best choice. At the same time, it can also promote the marriage rate in society, which can be regarded as a good deed.

Single and unmarried young people cannot buy a house, and it does not affect their life. The current rent is still very cheap compared to their income. Generally, it does not exceed 20% of personal income. This is calculated based on the area of ​​a set of 120 square meters .

If money is tight, you can choose to rent a smaller house, and the pressure will be lower. Therefore, for single people, such regulations have little impact.

As for when Wancheng Jiye would start to sell real estate on a large scale, he did not urge him to do so. This decision must be made after comprehensive consideration. If he is not in office for a long time, don't make a blind decision.

Now that Wancheng Jiye is ready to start selling a large number of properties to the market, it means that the housing decoration market will be very hot for a long time to come.

Together with household appliances, furniture and other industries, they will also usher in higher growth, which can stimulate the growth of a series of consumer goods. After all, a new home and a new atmosphere will generate new market demand.

I hope they can cooperate closely with Wancheng Foundation and make preparations in advance, so that when the market emerges, there will be no imbalance between supply and demand due to lack of preparation.

At the same time, he also asked Wancheng Foundation to speed up the construction of the super maglev transportation network. The current construction speed of 10,000 kilometers per year cannot meet social needs.

Therefore, he believes that it is necessary to expand the investment scale, and invest according to the construction scale of 20,000 kilometers per year. If possible, it can even be increased to 30,000 kilometers.

In order to connect all prefecture-level cities in China with a super maglev transportation network, 100,000 kilometers of mileage needs to be built. If the current construction speed is used, it will take a long time.

If the funds are insufficient, you can borrow from the banks under the Tidal Group. Anyway, the profits of the subsidiaries are stored with them, so that their reserves are very sufficient.

He doesn't have to worry about Wancheng Jiye being unable to repay the loan. As long as they start buying houses, they will have a lot of cash flow in their hands. This is why he has the confidence to let Wancheng Jiye speed up its construction.

As for the construction of the airport, it is still in full swing, and it may take a year or two to complete the construction plan for these public aviation airports.

Ye Zishu asked him to plan the construction plan of the private airport now. It is not necessary to build it now, but he can conduct investigations in advance and make preliminary preparations.

In order to promote the development of the domestic aviation industry, in addition to the development of the public civil aviation industry, the private aviation market must also be developed, and the development of the private aviation industry requires the construction of many small private airports.

Public aviation airports need to strictly abide by aviation management methods, and need to arrange flights well, because the resources of such airports are very precious, and there are not many resources for private jets.

The small private airport just fills this gap, and the management is relatively free. It only needs to report to the Air Traffic Management Bureau a few hours in advance for takeoff and landing.

As long as there are a batch of such airports, it will inevitably prompt many private individuals to purchase small aircraft. Of course, it is necessary to communicate with relevant departments in advance to confirm that the private aviation field will be opened.

Flights by private jets also require air routes, but they are generally short-distance routes. If the relevant departments do not plan to open temporary air route applications to private individuals, this industry will not be able to develop.

Matching it is the development of small aircraft manufacturing industry. At present, the smallest aircraft of Huanyu Group is also 150 seats, which seems a bit large for private jets.

Generally, there are only a dozen people for private travel. A plane that is too big is not only a waste, but also costs more money to buy. Unless you are a super rich person, you will not care about these costs.

But to be honest, the safety of private small aircraft is still much worse than that of civil aviation airliners, which has a certain impact on the sales of small private aircraft.

Therefore, he believes that it is necessary to change the technical system of existing small aircraft. Combining variable wings and distributed power systems will greatly improve the survivability of small aircraft in the air.

Even if it encounters high-air currents, it will not have a fatal impact on the aircraft, and it can even save fuel and increase speed, which is actually similar to flying birds in the air.

They didn't say anything at the meeting, and they planned to design the product later, and with their manufacturing capabilities, there was no problem at all.

During the talks with Guo Dongmei of Kirin Industrial Group, he requested to further increase the production of general-purpose robots and expand the production capacity to 50 million units.

At present, their production capacity is 30 million units. With their industrial scale, it should not be a big problem to increase their production capacity by another 20 million units.

After so many years of development, the actual production cost of universal robots has been reduced, but the meat is rotten in the pot, so the cost price has not been adjusted.

At the same time, they are required to continue to increase investment in agriculture. Although agriculture has developed well in recent years, compared with the speed of economic development, it is relatively slow.

If it weren't for the large amount of grain, oil, meat, fish and seafood products provided by the Qilin Agricultural Development Group, the domestic agricultural development demand is far behind the social demand, which will inevitably cause prices to rise wildly.

Although the land is not as tight as before, he does not think that intensive agricultural development is outdated, so the development of high-standard greenhouse planting technology is still particularly important.

At present, a considerable part of the organic vegetables and fruits circulating in the market are grown in these high-standard greenhouses. Compared with open-air cultivation, the weight, appearance and taste can be effectively controlled, and the output is more stable and guaranteed. .

As for other aspects, he didn't say too much. The meeting was the same as before, and it ended after one day. He didn't even get off work overtime, and he got off work on time.

The next day, he held an online meeting alone with Yuko Ogura, the person in charge of the Xiaodangjia Group, which was completed in the morning. In the afternoon, he held a meeting with the management of Baihu Technology Company, which only took half a day.

As for the Tidal Group, let’s talk about it after Ye Zihua returns. He doesn’t bother to manage the Starlight Group and the Spark Group. The artificial intelligence is completely free to play, and he doesn’t plan to get too involved in their operations.

There are still a few days before Pei Qing goes to visit her relatives in the capital. Ye Zishu started to design a small aircraft at home. Compared with a large passenger aircraft, a small aircraft requires too much innovative work.

Although they all use variable wings, compared with large airliners, the variable wings of small aircraft are more flexible, and can even be said to be as flexible as the wings of flying birds.

Small aircraft do not pursue the ultimate in speed, nor do they have much demand for ultra-long range. In addition, they are light in weight and do not require high load capacity, so there is much more room for choice.

Using a more flexible variable wing, the biggest problem is to overcome the structural stability. Huanyu Group's large passenger aircraft has a very high weight and load requirements are also very high.

Therefore, the variable wing used on large passenger aircraft can only be called a semi-variable wing. Due to reasons such as large size, heavy weight, and high power, it can still deal with high air flow calmly.

If a small aircraft wants to do this, it is difficult to cope with all the complex weather with only a semi-variable wing, so a fully variable wing is necessary in his opinion.

There is no need to develop new materials, but to make a comprehensive change in the design of the variable wing. The production difficulty and complexity are much higher than those of the semi-variable wing.

In order to reduce the difficulty and complexity of production, he also needs to design special production equipment. If the existing equipment is used, it is estimated that the two wings will cost several million or tens of millions of yuan, and there must be no market.

If you want to develop the small aircraft market, other aspects may be very important, but the most important thing is the price. If it is tens of millions of yuan per aircraft, the purchase volume will be much lower.

If it is reduced to about 5 million yuan, or even less, small aircraft will no longer be the monopoly of the rich, and families with a little money can afford it.

In terms of power, he does not intend to use the current power engine technology, whether it is the turbofan engine used by civil aviation airliners or the jet engine used by fighter jets.

For small aircraft, they are not friendly. One is that small aircraft do not need to be too fast, the other is that small aircraft fly at a lower altitude, and the third is that the cost is low.

These requirements make the above two power systems useless, and the rest is the common propeller power system. Unfortunately, it is not suitable for fully variable wings, and it is difficult to combine the two.

Therefore, the distributed small ducted power system has become the only choice. This power system subverts the traditional power system and has great innovation value.

So why didn't it appear before? He thinks it's not that others can't figure it out, but that there are several major difficulties in it, which makes people daunting.

First of all, it is difficult to manufacture. The diameter of each small duct is only half the diameter of the little finger. It may take thousands of such ducts to lift a small aircraft and let it fly forward.

Most of the previous aircraft only required to fly forward, and there were no such complicated requirements. There was no need to spend so much energy and cost on this.

The second is that the control system is very difficult to implement. The control system needs to precisely control each duct in order to achieve the target demand with joint efforts. This alone will baffle countless engineers.

Don't you think it's just to control thousands of ducted jets? In fact, it is much more complicated than we imagined. A little carelessness will lead to catastrophe. Those flying in the sky will either come down safely, or the plane will be destroyed. This is not a joke.

There is an easier choice, so why bother yourself? Only people like Ye Zishu don't care about these things. After all, for him, this job is not worth mentioning.

Then there is the energy system. If you want to achieve such precise control, you cannot use ordinary internal combustion engine technology. Internal combustion engines cannot precisely control the combustion state.

Therefore, he plans to use a pure electric energy system, just use the sodium-ion battery of Huanyu Group. In fact, their graphene battery can also meet the requirements, but the price is relatively high.

In the past, the production of sodium metal was relatively cumbersome, but after the large-scale desalination of seawater by Kirin Environmental Industry Group, he improved the production process of metal sodium, which greatly increased the production efficiency of metal sodium, and naturally reduced the cost.

Then there is the package design. Since the distributed power system is used, if the innovative design is not carried out, the appearance will be densely packed with trachea holes, which is quite unsightly.

For him, this is the biggest challenge. If you want something to sell well, appearance is very important. Many consumers don't care how much high technology is used in it, they only care about driving it out and stunning the world.

I thought it would take a day or two to get it done. After all, many technologies have been accumulated before, and with the aid of artificial intelligence design, the efficiency is still very high.

It's just that he designed several schemes in the middle, but none of them satisfied him. It took him five full days to finally come up with several design schemes that satisfied him.

One is a small personal aircraft, which can satisfy the desire of individuals to travel to the sky. Naturally, the price is the cheapest. The cost is less than 1 million yuan, and the market price may be around 2 million yuan.

One is the family version, which can take 5 people at the same time. The cost is about 3 million yuan, and the market price may reach about 8 million yuan.

One is the business version, which can take 9 people at the same time. The cost is about 5 million yuan, and the market price will reach tens of millions of yuan.

If you want to take more people, there is no need to buy this kind of aircraft, just buy a helicopter or a small fixed-wing aircraft.

To be honest, in terms of safety, the small aircraft he designed is much higher than that of helicopters. During the simulation test, it was completely carried out according to the test environment of civil aviation airliners, and all passed.

After sorting out the technical information, Ye Zishu thought about it, and felt that the technology in it could actually be used to produce flying cars, allowing cars to fly within a short distance.

He has no plans to use anti-gravity technology on the car. The gravity field technology he provided to Baihu Technology can actually provide gravity in a weightless environment, and can also achieve a weightless state in a gravity environment.

Because the principles of both of them are the same, they are both realized by changing the gradient of the local space, but the gravity is to increase the gradient of the space along the way, while the anti-gravity is to increase the gradient of the space in the opposite direction.

Anti-gravity technology has strategic value for quite a long time, and it is one of the important technologies for human beings to achieve interstellar flight. It is estimated that it will take a long time to wait for it to be used in cars.

To be honest, he feels that he has to cover up the application of technology, which is actually quite helpless. It is a pity that today's human society is like this. He can't help it. He can't let technology become a weapon for others to enslave his own people.

Although anti-gravity flight cannot be used on the car, it is still easy to let the car fly in the sky for a period of time with the set of technologies he has compiled.

The problem that may be faced now is whether a flying car is considered a car or an aircraft. If it is an aircraft, it needs to be implemented in accordance with aviation management methods.

If it is a car, it is easy to disturb the traffic order, and there may even be unpredictable problems, which is very difficult to manage.

Leaving aside other things for the time being, if you use the expressway, you can fly directly there when the toll is being charged, and then when you get off the toll booth, you can fly off the expressway halfway without paying the toll.

Whether such disadvantages can be overcome, he thinks it is possible, that is, to implement more restrictive regulations in the driving system and use artificial intelligence to solve the complexity of management.

For example, it can be stipulated that the maximum distance of the flying car from the ground is only 10 meters, which is an ultra-low altitude flight and has no impact on aviation management, so it does not need to be restricted by aviation management measures.

It can also be stipulated that during the flight, the whole process will be taken over by artificial intelligence, and everything will be operated in accordance with laws and regulations, without human intervention.

On the one hand, this is to be more compliant and legal, and on the other hand, it is also to ensure the safety of the flight process and avoid safety problems caused by human error.

Although he wasn't sure if he would be allowed to go on the road after doing so, he wanted to give it a try, and it wouldn't take him much time anyway.

It took another day to personally design several flying cars, and also helped to write a new intelligent management system and driving system.

Then they packaged these materials and sent them to Huanyu Group. As for their follow-up operations, Ye Shu should not worry about them.

Anyway, if they don't want to make progress, he will let Xinghuo Group compete with them. Anyway, the technical data of artificial intelligence 3.0 is available there, and it is quite convenient to do it.

As for when Xinghuo Group or Xingguang Group will intervene, there is naturally a set of judgment criteria. The simplest criterion is that after artificial intelligence simulation calculations, it is found that there is a huge market that has not been discovered and occupied.

They will start projects and produce products that meet market needs to occupy the market. Therefore, if Huanyu Group does not pay attention, the market may be doing very well.

Then it is very likely that they will face competition from the Starlight Group or the Spark Group. As for the technical information, all the technologies organized by Ye Zishu will have a copy on the side of Artificial Intelligence 3.0.

Even Ye Zishu did not provide technical information to these companies, there may be one on the artificial intelligence 3.0 side, and in terms of technical background, the two groups are not bad at all.

Of course, not all fields are judged according to such rules, otherwise it would be really messed up. It is estimated that the companies he founded before may be completely defeated in a short time.

What he hopes to see is orderly competition, so there are many other principled regulations here to ensure that the two camps of the two groups can cooperate and compete, and jointly develop the economy and prosper the market.

Pei Qing has been preparing to go back to her parents' house during this time. In the past, she must have brought gifts. Therefore, in the past few days, she has to go shopping in the county almost every day to see if there is anything worth buying.

As for the new year's goods at home, the robot housekeeper is in charge, so he and Pei Qing don't have to worry about it. In fact, Pei Qing still has to prepare a new year's gift for his parents.

After all, one can't treat one more favorably than another, even if the money spent on the gift is not worth mentioning to his parents, Pei Qing still wants to give an attitude and show her filial piety.

At the same time, he also needs to prepare a gift for his younger siblings, so it is not easy to be a wealthy daughter-in-law. She must consider all aspects, and must not be completely heartless, or silly and sweet.

Pei Qing has done a good job in this regard, and it is precisely because of this that even though she is not married to Ye Zishu, everyone in the family recognizes her as a daughter-in-law. If there are good things in the family, they will bring her a copy.

This time she chose a lot of high-quality jewelry, mainly pearl jewelry. After all, it is a specialty here, and the price is not cheap. The price of top pearls is even more expensive than gold gems.

Like the top colorful pearls, the price is calculated according to the weight. The price of a gram is as high as tens of thousands of yuan, which is much more valuable than gold, but the volume of a gram of pearls is much larger than a gram of gold.
