Chapter 391 Retired Aircraft Carrier

From the next day Gao Yuan began to live a leisurely life. He would ride a horse in the manor when he had nothing to do and take a yacht to go fishing at sea.

Cai Sitian started to get busy after just one day of rest. She was going to set up a new real estate company in Australia and continue to use the name of Cai Group. The company would be fully controlled by Cai Sitian.

She asked Gao Yuan whether he would let Yuanfang control the company, but Gao Yuan refused and did not even sign a proxy holding agreement.

The reason why Gao Yuan did this is very simple.

He doesn't want to be exposed too early without sufficient strength, so it's a good idea to put Cai Sitian in the front.

This is equivalent to setting up a firewall.

Most people would only think that this is the Cai Group's industry, and would not think that Gao Yuan is controlling it behind the scenes.

At the same time, the resort project also started.

Cai Sitian spent millions to buy three thousand acres of land from Charles.

The total investment of the first phase of the resort is 5 billion, which is planned to be completed within one year, with a maximum daily reception standard of about 100,000 people. Inside the resort, there are amusement parks, observation decks, seven-star hotels, etc., integrating food, drink, entertainment and fun.

The second phase of the project will be completed within three years, with a total investment of 10 billion yuan. The resort will be promoted in many ways, while at the same time improving the various infrastructure within the resort to build it into a world-renowned tourist resort.

A total investment of 15 billion yuan in three years was something Cai Sitian had not expected.

Before she met Gao Yuan, Cai Sitian also planned to build a resort here. According to the plan at the time, the total investment was 500 million yuan, which was all the cash flow that Cai Hongxin could mobilize.

I didn’t expect that after such a short time, this project would suddenly become worth 15 billion.

When Cai Sitian first heard this number, she almost dropped her jaw in shock and kept doubting whether she could do it well.

It was Gao Yuan who spoke up and told her to do her job without worry and that he would not interfere with her management of the entire resort.

This made Cai Sitian feel a little relieved.

"Mr. Gao, this is the recent expenditure, including the initial material costs and labor costs... It's about 1 billion yuan." Cai Sitian pushed open the door and walked into Gao Yuan's office. "I need you to review it and sign it."

It’s a thick stack of information, and it will take at least two hours to read it carefully.

"Just sign it. You don't need to ask me to review such trivial matters in the future."

Gao Yuan waved his hand.

"But...but I..."

Cai Sitian was a little nervous.

"Good boy!" Gao Yuan touched Cai Sitian's head. "You have to be independent. This resort is for you to practice. People can never teach people in their lifetime, but you can learn it in one go if you are taught by things."

"Now that the platform is given to you, you can give full play to your talents. Don't worry about getting into any trouble. Your husband will cover you."

Cai Sitian nodded heavily, "Okay, I will do it well!"

She sat on Gao Yuan's lap intimately, snuggling in Gao Yuan's arms, and asked, "What do you want to eat tonight? I'll make it for you."

The project is not important. The most important thing is to serve Gao Yuan well.

“Let’s go for Sichuan cuisine!”

Gao Yuan thought, "I haven't eaten Sichuan cuisine for a long time."

"it is good!"

Cai Sitian nodded and stood up to leave the office.

"and many more!"

Gao Yuan stopped her and said, "Select some reliable workers from the batch of workers you brought from China. I can use them."

Gao Yuan took out the map of the three thousand acres of land from the drawer and drew a circle on it with a red pen, occupying about one-third of the area.

"I have a use for this part of the place, so I'll keep it for myself. I'll put up a fence around here later. If anyone asks, I'll say this is a later stage of construction and it's not open to the public for the time being."

Afterwards, Gao Yuan drew a small circle inside the big circle, covering an area of ​​about four to five hundred acres.

“Bring those reliable workers here, improve their treatment, but take away their mobile phones and make them sign a confidentiality agreement.”

"Let them leave after the training base is built."

Hearing Gao Yuan's words, Cai Sitian was shocked, "Is this place so important?"

"Yeah!" Gao Yuan nodded. "One third of the reason I came to Australia was for this."

He wanted to use the military training base to continuously train batches of elite soldiers to pave the way for his future.

This military training base is very important.

The resort is just a foil.

"Understood!"

Cai Sitian took a deep breath. Although she didn't know why Gao Yuan did this, she also didn't know what the use of this place was.

But if you marry a chicken, you follow the chicken; if you marry a dog, you follow the dog.

No matter what Gao Yuan wants to do, she will only support him.

When Gao Yuan wants to tell her, he will definitely tell her.

"Go!"

Gao Yuan said.

"Then you have to kiss me."

Cai Sitian’s face moved closer.

"mua～～"

Cai Sitian was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth. She whispered in Gao Yuan's ear, "I ordered a maid outfit and will wait for you in bed tonight."

what?
Maid outfit?
I feel excited just thinking about it.

Looks like I'm blessed tonight.

After Cai Sitian left, Gao Yuan was about to turn on his computer to deal with some matters when his phone rang.

It’s Zhang Yu calling.

"Boss, I have arrived in the country as you instructed."

Zhang Yu said on the other end of the phone.

"Okay, your next task is to send the remaining 150 security personnel of the company to Australia in batches. In addition, recruit retired soldiers from the society again. The minimum requirement is to have served in the special forces for three years."

“Everyone’s salary will be doubled.”

After all, it's working abroad. If the salary is not increased, I guess those people won't be willing to come.

These days, money is the only thing that matters.

You can't let the horse run and not eat grass at the same time.

Gao Yuan has never liked to make big promises to his employees. As long as the tasks are completed well, the salary will definitely satisfy the employees.

"Okay, boss!"

Zhang Yu was so happy.

If all employees' salaries doubled, wouldn't that mean his annual salary would also double? One million a year?
Good guy!
If you work abroad for a few more years, you can save a lot of money after returning home to buy an apartment and a car in your hometown.

I can retire when I’m in my forties and travel around the world.

After hanging up the phone, Gao Yuan opened the email on his computer.

These emails were all sent by senior executives in China.

For example, Wang Sichao sent a report stating that the current number of locked orders for Yuanfang Auto has reached 800,000 vehicles.

Compared with the more than 100,000 lock orders per day in the previous period, the number has declined, but this is normal.

After all, those who wanted to buy Yuanfang cars have already bought them.

Those who were hesitant have also gathered their money to lock in their orders. The remaining people should have cars, but they will not consider buying a car from afar for the time being.

According to the statistical data model, after this wave of sales boom is over, Yuanfang Auto's sales volume will remain at a very stable stage, with sales of about 4000 vehicles per day and 12 vehicles per month.

Compared with other cars, Yuanfang Automobile's sales are far ahead.

Several other projects also sent emails to explain their recent progress.

Overall, the trend is prosperous.

Li Mengqing, Xiao Xiao and Lin Wanyu were a little annoyed. People often wanted to visit Gao Yuan, but they couldn't contact him, so those people could only contact them three.

There are many leaders among these people who want to invite Gao Yuan to invest in their provinces and cities, provide jobs for local people and drive local economic development. Those leaders also offer various preferential conditions.

For example, the annual tax payment is halved, and in terms of the authority to approve land, they can approve any land within a range of 5,000 acres.

As long as Gao Yuan agrees to go to their province or city, they will recommend Gao Yuan to be the president of various chambers of commerce, and everything will be smooth sailing.

It’s a pity that these conditions are far from enough to defeat Gao Yuan.

There are also some big bosses who want to cooperate with Yuanfang Group. They not only lower their status but also take the initiative to make concessions.

It was promised that all profits in the first three years would go to Yuanfang Group, and they would distribute dividends in the fourth year.

That is to say, in the next three years, they will all work for Gao Yuanbai and work hard without complaint.

……

In early October, Musk came to Australia.

His itinerary for this trip was kept secret and only a few people knew about it.

Gao Yuan arranged for him to live in the manor. On the one hand, the manor now has strong security and its safety factor is comparable to that of the United Nations safe house.

On the other hand, it is also to facilitate communication with Musk.

Prevent Musk from leaking their chat information.

"Mr. Gao, why do I feel like I've entered a wolf's den?"

When they met, Musk smiled and said, "I came here alone. You are responsible for my safety."

"Don't worry, Musk, you can stay here with peace of mind," Gao Yuan said.

It is impossible for Musk to encounter danger in the manor.

"Mr. Gao, I just like your confident expression," Musk said. "I have met all the businessmen in your country. They can be roughly divided into two categories. The first category is extremely modest and dare not even show their wealth in public."

"The second type is extremely arrogant, or, in your words, bragging. I once met a CEO named Yang, who is the head of the largest computer manufacturer in your country. When I talked to him, he said that his company was very powerful and it would be no problem for it to surpass Tesla in profit within five years."

"Mr. Gao Yuan doesn't belong to these two categories. You are full of confidence. I especially like dealing with people like you because you speak straightforwardly and don't beat around the bush."

Musk has come into contact with many businessmen over the years, but Gao Yuan is the one who gives him the best impression.

“Hahaha, Mr. Musk’s description is very accurate.”

Gao Yuan laughed.

There are indeed many such bosses in China.

Either be extremely humble and cautious, or be so high-profile that everyone in the world knows about it.

After chatting for a while, the two got down to business.

Musk handed a document to Gao Yuan.

"What? It's an aircraft carrier?"

After seeing the words on the document, Gao Yuan lost his composure.

This thing is a national-level weapon with long-range strike capability. Of course, the most important thing is strategic deterrence.

As long as there are aircraft carriers, most countries dare not provoke them.

After reading the document in amazement, Gao Yuan got a general idea of ​​it.

This is a retired aircraft carrier. All its advanced weapons have been removed and its current selling price is $1500 billion.

Converted into RMB, it is about one trillion.

Gao Yuan's net worth is more than one trillion, so it is not impossible for him to buy this aircraft carrier, but he will have to sell most of his industries.

These industries are all high-quality assets, and it is not cost-effective to sell them now.

In addition, an aircraft carrier is too large. Even if you buy it, it won’t fit there.

Moreover, the politicians in Musk's country are not vegetarians either, and they will definitely investigate the person who bought the aircraft carrier. In front of the country, Gao Yuan will definitely be found out even if he does it in secret.

No matter how greedy those politicians are, they dare not sell the aircraft carrier to Gao Yuan, as this would cost them their heads.

"Elon Musk, this document doesn't make any sense to me."

Gao Yuan shook his head.

The weapons above are really too terrifying.

If he bought it now, he would have no place to put it, which would be equivalent to exposing himself.

If this happens, the whole world will know that he bought an aircraft carrier, and all kinds of troubles will come one after another.

Gao Yuan's current status and identity are indeed very powerful, but they are far from being able to compete with the country.

"Can you get me a list of weapons sold by China?"

Gao Yuan asked.

"Hold on!"

Musk left the house and made a phone call outside.

About a few minutes later, Musk came back and sent a file to Gao Yuan's mobile phone.

The documents indicate that the weapons China wants to sell are mainly light weapons.

Weapons of mass destruction, such as rockets, are controlled and generally only exported to some wealthy countries, such as the oil-rich countries in the Middle East.

People in those countries are very generous and don't use the things they buy, they just treat them as decorations.

The most important thing is that after the weapons are sold, the control of these weapons is still in the hands of China, and whether they are used externally requires China's consent.

Gao Yuan could get light weapons himself even without entrusting Thomask, so this list was of no use to him.

"Let's talk about the SpaceX project." Gao Yuan sighed.

SpaceX stands for Space Exploration Technologies Corporation, a company founded by Musk in 2002. Its core goal is to reduce the cost of space transportation and promote the Mars immigration plan.

Musk has completed the first fully private manned space flight mission in human history.

Currently, the Falcon series of launch vehicles and Dragon series of spacecraft have been developed, and the company has the ability to manufacture, launch, recover and reuse launch vehicles.

Three years ago, SpaceX's Crew Dragon spacecraft sent four astronauts to the International Space Station to carry out a mission.

Currently, SpaceX has more than 25 Internet users, with annual bookings exceeding US$3 million. Last year's total revenue reached US$80 billion, and the company's valuation is around US$2000 billion.

Compared with other industries owned by Musk, SpaceX is not the most profitable, but it is definitely full of technology and is an emerging industry of the future.

Musk's obsession with migrating to Mars is extraordinary.

"Mr. Gao, according to the most optimistic estimates, within three years, we can send ordinary people to travel in space.

According to my conception, the cost of a single trip will be more than 50 US dollars, which is about 400 million in your country's currency. "

Musk said.

This is not the first time he has said this. As early as last year, Musk had made a bold statement on Twitter that he would realize space travel in just a few years and allow people with space dreams to pursue their dreams in space.

"I roughly estimated that after the space tourism business is launched, our company's annual net profit will exceed 500 billion US dollars, and the company's market value will reach about trillion US dollars!"
