This Game Is Too Realistic

It is definitely an unexpected surprise for Chu Guang to be able to pull the big tree of the company into the car at the "angel wheel" stage.

Originally, he thought that if he wanted to make the enterprise successful, he would at least have to wait until the experimental demonstration had results.

After all, based on Chu Guang's understanding of this group of people, they are all masters who don't let go of eagles when they see rabbits.

At the beginning, the companies were exported by the legion, and the council still held a tepid meeting for a month before making up its mind to send reinforcements to the alliance.

But now, Li Changkong just took one look at the alliance's offshore engineering equipment and the construction site that had already started and lost his temper. Chu Guang was really surprised.

Although Ideal Group is not the same as a company, there is no difference in Chu Guang.

After all, what he needs is the Ideal Group's "wonder construction experience" and various engineering talents. It would be really easy to replace several other groups from the five major groups.

After getting off the Conch, Li Changkong took a special plane to Beidao in the southern sea and stayed at the Beidao Hotel, the highest-standard hotel there.

Such a big matter is obviously not something that a manager can decide on his own.

Chu Guang knew that he needed to communicate with the other shareholders of the Ideal Group, so he did not rush him. He just gave him the project plan, concept drawings and other miscellaneous things and asked him to take them back to the hotel. Study slowly.

Li Changkong thanked him for his kindness, and then locked himself in the hotel. There was no movement. During this period, he also borrowed the hotel's holographic conference room several times.

Although the communication network of the South China Sea Alliance is not connected to Ideal City, it can still be contacted through the alliance as a springboard.

Since the establishment of the sticky community, the alliance and enterprises have set up many signal relays along Tianshui in order to strengthen information exchange.

Although the bandwidth of communication is limited, at least there is no need to rely on airplanes to send letters for small things, and satellites of the People's Federation for big things like before.

Chu Guang didn't have to wait for long. On the third day after the first meeting between the two parties, the representative from the Ideal Group made an appointment with him again.

The location for the meeting between the two parties was decided at the Beidao Hotel.

After these three days of discussion, Ideal Group has made a preliminary intention to cooperate, and this time the two parties started to negotiate the specific details of the cooperation.

"...According to company laws, our Ideal Group cannot make decisions on its own for such a large project with an estimated total price of more than 10 billion Cr. The decision must be approved by the board of directors. But you don't need to worry about this. We will try to convince the other members of the council, as long as half of the seats are in favor.”

This is not difficult for the ideal group.

First of all, there is no direct conflict of interest between the space elevator and several other groups, and it is not as sensitive as the "androids participating in public affairs" proposed by the Kangmao Group before.

Secondly, Ideal Group also has good reasons. If it wants to solve the energy crisis in Ideal City, it must resume the Earth-to-Moon flights before the energy is exhausted.

Based on these two factors, the voting by the board of directors is probably just a formality, and the ideal group will most likely not encounter any resistance.

As long as the investment and returns are not too outrageous, there is an obvious suspicion of "transferring assets."

Chu Guang knew a lot about the rules of Ideal City, so he didn't feel anything when he heard Li Changkong's words. Instead, he was relieved that he didn't raise any objection to the estimated cost of "100 billion silver coins."

This number is actually a conservative estimate he made based on the opinions of the scientific expedition team. The final actual expenditure may not be this much, but it may be one zero more than this.

After all, it is an epoch-making project, and there are no past cases for reference. The relevant units of the alliance are also at the stage of taking one step at a time. It is unrealistic to expect him to come up with an accurate budget figure.

As the manager of the construction department, Li Changkong obviously knew this, so he did not find any fault with the budget, but only raised questions about a few unclear areas in the plan.

"I noticed that in addition to the space elevator itself, your plan also mentioned guiding survivors from the eastern provinces to migrate to the coastal areas... What is this?"

This part of the content is written at the end of the plan.

Although it didn't take up much space, it was just mentioned casually, but because this part of the content was not mentioned at the Alliance Community Conference, it still aroused his curiosity.

Chu Guang didn't whet his appetite and stated his plan straightforwardly.

"This part of the plan is our latest addition. In addition to building a space elevator in the southern sea area, we also plan to build ten coastal settlements on the eastern coast of Middle Continent to resettle survivors in the wasteland. At the same time, Focus on developing industries related to outer space development.”

Such as space junk salvage and sorting.

After all, most of the space junk floating in outer space will eventually end up in the sea beneath his feet. By then, collecting garbage in the sea and panning for gold from garbage will surely become a popular industry.

It's unrealistic to expect those wastelanders to help build a spaceship, but there is still no problem in letting them do the old job of scavenging.

By then, the southern waters will surely be much busier than now.

Once the population gathers together and stable settlements are formed along the coastline, the Alliance can locally replicate what other settlements have done.

Such as establishing order, popularizing education, etc.

And when these settlements develop into settlements that are not inferior to Dawn City, Boulder City, and Dawn City, they can also radiate their light and heat to the vast uninhabited areas of the eastern provinces along the footsteps they came from. .

This strategy actually has another benefit: it can create a population siphon effect in most of the chaotic areas in the eastern provinces.

It is difficult for a predator who does not produce anything to survive alone in the wilderness.

As the number of people who can suck blood gradually decreases, they either give up their primitive tribal lifestyle and try to farm and produce on their own. Or they can only give up their base and follow the southward migrating people towards the coastline.

Not only the plunderers, but also the slave owners, large and small. As there are fewer and fewer new blood and caravans, life will definitely not be as easy as before.

In a sense, this is a kind of shock treatment in disguise.

When only raiders, mutants, slavers, mutant slime molds, and xenomorphs are left in the eastern provinces, the Alliance will be able to clean up the mess more efficiently.

Li Changkong was stunned for a moment. The first thing that came to his mind was not the layout behind the ten settlements of the Alliance, but something else.

"Isn't there... a risk of being attacked by aquatic mutants?"

Chu Guang explained patiently.

"Aquatic mutants are certainly dangerous, but there are also many dangers on land, not to mention that there are also mutant activities on land. To establish settlements along the coast, at least the South China Sea Alliance fleet can help patrol, and if the location of the mutant lair is determined , our Conch submarine will also bring ground troops to help clear it up. Generally speaking, these ten settlements will not be more dangerous than the original living environment of the wastelanders. "

Li Changkong nodded.

This sounds quite reliable.

After all, he knew the Alliance's army. Those guys were much more ruthless than the mutants. I heard that the murlocs kept in captivity by the Torch Church were killed on the Coast of Death until they were running away.

There was just one thing he didn't understand.

"...Is this also part of the space elevator plan?"

Chu Guang said with a smile.

"That's not true, but we plan to advance this work simultaneously with the space elevator project."

After a pause, he continued.

"This is a long-term plan. In the future, we plan to build the southern coastline into a new 'ring space elevator industrial zone', just like the four major industrial zones surrounding the old space elevator."

Li Changkong made a surprised expression when he heard this, held his chin with his index finger and nodded.

"so it is……"

Simply building a space elevator is not enough. There must be supporting industrial and logistics facilities nearby to process the resources transported from space to the surface into products.

The People's Federation once chose to build the sky elevator in the relatively sparsely populated central part of the Central Continent, and then gradually moved the population and jobs in other provinces to the vicinity of the space elevator, which is now the great desert area.

It is obviously unrealistic to rebuild a space elevator in the middle of Middle Continent. The building ruins there are astronomical as the garbage floating in outer space.

However, the southern sea area is a feng shui treasure land that has been developed!

Thinking of this, Li Changkong's eyes became brighter and brighter. He now felt more and more that moving the space elevator to the sea was a genius idea!

Noticing the change in Li Changkong's eyes, Chu Guang also showed a happy smile on his face.

"Although this plan is not strictly part of the space elevator project, I may have to ask you for help when the time comes."

Li Changkong said with a smile.

"This small favor is nothing...but I still have to say something upfront. After all, Ideal Group is a listed company. We need to be responsible for our own shareholders and financial statements. We cannot assist you in construction in coastal areas for free."

Chu Guang also smiled and said.

"Don't worry about this. I can clearly tell the difference between you and the council. This is purely a business cooperation. We will pay the fees that need to be paid!"

"Thank you for your understanding," Li Changkong nodded, paused for a moment and continued, "Finally, I would like to confirm the details of the cooperation contract."

"According to the terms provided in your plan, we plan to bear one-third of the construction cost of the entire space elevator, but the use and changes of the budget must be signed and approved by us."

"In addition, we have doubts about the allocation method of capacity quota. Considering that the space elevator is not only a transportation tool, but may also generate other benefits, we hope that you will adopt a more equitable allocation method, such as establishing a joint-stock project management company , replacing the 'one-third capacity quota' in return for our investment with 'one-third of the shares'."

One-third of the shares is not too much. After all, the entire space elevator is still in the stage of only having a PPT.

As for the Ideal Group's promise to "bear one-third of the expenses", what they have come up with is real gold and silver, and this investment is not a one-time investment, but will be followed up according to the adjustment of the project budget. until the entire project is completed.

If the relationship between the two parties hadn't been close enough, and the alliance had given the Ideal Group the hope that the pie would come true, I'm afraid the other party wouldn't have placed such a heavy bargaining chip right from the start.

Facing Li Changkong's appeal, although Chu Guang's heart was beating hard, he didn't show it on his face and pretended to think deeply for a moment before speaking.

"That's no problem. The way we allocate transportation capacity is indeed not considered carefully by us. This can be improved according to your wishes. But on the contrary, I hope that you will provide not only funds, but also your valuable construction experience and related Technology… Simply put, we want you to be involved in our projects from the design stage.”

Li Changkong nodded readily.

"No problem, we happen to have this idea too! To be honest, construction in a marine environment is our weakness, and we also hope to learn from you through this opportunity!"

"Let's stop flattering each other," Chu Guang coughed lightly and continued, "In addition, if it is a joint-stock system to distribute benefits, I hope to add a supplementary clause. If there are other people joining in the process, Our respective holdings will be diluted in the same proportion."

If it is one-third of the transportation capacity quota, he can agree to it to the company, but if it covers other income, he cannot be the scapegoat.

"No problem!" Li Changkong readily agreed, and continued, "But in contrast, we require the right to nominate new partners and the right to veto... Of course, this is a reciprocity. You also enjoy the rights.”

"No problem, this is a reasonable request, and we don't want spoilers to come in and do bad things." When he said this, Chu Guang added, "Of course, we must go through full process to identify the spoilers. Communication, in principle, I prefer to involve more survivors in the wasteland.”

Li Changkong smiled and said.

"Don't worry, our position is the same as yours on this point! Even if they are troublemakers like the Legion, as long as they keep their peace, we will not exclude them, even if we have some historical grievances."

Chu Guang stretched his eyebrows, nodded and said with a smile.

"I feel relieved now."

He does not object to this kind of exclusive cooperation agreement. He is just worried about the advantageous position of corporate interests and can use his opposition votes at will.

But in fact, if you think about it carefully, companies are not legions, not to mention that the alliance and companies can always reach an agreement on "who is the troublemaker."

Thinking of this, Chu Guang no longer cared about the minor flaws and happily signed a contract with the Ideal Prostitute.

From this moment on, the "Ladder Orbital Transportation Company" was officially established, and the Ideal Group officially joined the space elevator project!

Ideal Group expects to form a team of experts with a scale of 1,000 people to invest in the project, and will dispatch a professional technical team to the southern seas in the near future to participate in the design of the elevator together with experts from the Alliance and the South China Sea Alliance.

In order not to delay the construction period of the project, Li Changkong immediately contacted his special plane after receiving the contract and asked it to park on the tarmac on the roof of the hotel and stand by.

Seeing Li Changkong who was about to leave, Chu Guang politely offered a word of caution.

"Why don't you stay here for a few more days? I also plan to take you to visit Coral City."

"Thank you for your kindness next time! After the project is launched, I'm afraid I will have to stay here permanently, and there will be no interruptions then."

After gently stacking the contracts in his hands, Li Changkong continued to talk with a smile.

"Our director general has urged me, and I have to rush to Ideal City as soon as possible to bring this good news to the meeting."

A big project worth 100 billion silver coins!

If this space elevator can be successfully completed, the Ideal Group may once again reach its peak more than a century ago!

In the past three days, he had successfully convinced the Board of Directors, and he used the same rhetoric that Chu Guang told him.

Now, not to mention the shareholders of Ideal Group, even the netizens on Duandian Cloud are hotly discussing the big pie that is five light years away!

He now bears not only the expectations of the Ideal Group and the Board of Directors, but also the expectations of the entire Ideal City!

At least that's what he thinks.

After hearing what Chu Changkong said, Chu Guang nodded and stopped trying to stay.

"Thanks a lot."

Kui Changkong nodded slightly and said with a smile.

"Nowhere, this is my job."

After putting Changkong on the plane, the financing of the space elevator "Angel Wheel" has come to an end. The next step is to wait for the results of experimental demonstrations by experts from all parties.

Professionally, Qing Chuguang knew nothing about it. All he could do was help the Alliance researchers obtain more resources and support them as much as possible outside the laboratory.

Because the representative of the Ideal Group was in a hurry and left without eating lunch, Chu Guang's watch suddenly became quite empty.

Just when Chu Guang was staring at the holographic screen and thinking about what to do next, Xiao Qi suddenly emerged from the screen and said with a worried look on his face.

"Master, it's better to take a proper rest. It's rare to have so much rest time. How about... how about going to the beach to look at bikinis?"

This is the information she crawled from a post on the forum titled "Top Ten Recommended Ways to Play Happy Casual Games". It is said to be a way to make the mood happy.

After hearing its words, Chu Guang almost choked on his own saliva, and black lines appeared on his forehead.

What a strange way of entertainment this is.

Wrong——

Who did this guy learn from?

"Eh? Don't like it? Then... from the recommendation of the player ID Debt Big Eyes, there is an alley full of exotic style in the mysterious Jin Jialong Port——"

"Go to Beidao Heavy Industry to have a look. Xiaoqi, arrange it for me." Before the artificial idiot finished speaking, Chu Guang interrupted its mindless speech.

Hearing that it was another work arrangement, Xiaoqi sighed helplessly and said in a long tone.

"Okay... Master."

Although it also understood that Chu Guang had a lot of important work to deal with, it still hoped that he could have a good rest.

Since the end of the Paradise War, he said he was coming to the southern seas for vacation, but he has never been idle for a moment...

For Chu Guang's sudden visit, all the senior executives of Beidao Heavy Industry were flattered.

Some of them were surprised, and some of them were frightened.

There was no way.

The Haiya Province found too much of their property and equipment. Although the alliance did not cause trouble for them in the end, but just went through the normal bankruptcy reorganization, business split, and capital injection and holding flow, they still couldn't resist the uneasiness in their hearts.

Especially this time, the person who came was not Fang Chang, but the manager of the alliance!

With such a high level, no one could be sure what exactly he meant.

Seeing that the convoy was about to arrive, the CEO of Beidao Heavy Industry could only bite the bullet and come downstairs with a group of senior executives.

Seeing his own off-road vehicle parked at the door, the CEO immediately took the initiative to greet it, personally opened the door for Chu Guang, and said attentively.

"Dear manager, what brings you here?"

Chu Guang couldn't tell him that there was actually no special purpose, but that the afternoon schedule was temporarily cancelled, so he came here to take a look and kill time.

Unexpectedly, the other party was so enthusiastic, and a large group of people crowded downstairs like a team building.

Not wanting to disturb their work, Chu Guang smiled and said in a gentle tone.

"Just do your own thing, don't mind me, I'll just watch."

Hearing this, all the senior executives looked at each other, wondering what this big boss meant.

Seeing that they were in a serious state of waiting, Chu Guang knew that if he really left them alone, they might be distracted until the day after tomorrow.

So Chu Guang glanced to the left and set his eyes on the CEO.

"Are you not busy?"

The CEO stood up straight and stood at attention, almost putting his fist on his chest to salute.

"No rush! Just tell us what you want, we will do our best to cooperate!"

"Don't be so serious," Chu Guang smiled and patted his shoulder. The latter, who was flattered, said friendly, "Let the others go, you take me to visit your production line."

"Yes!"

The CEO responded with a flushed face, and then turned his head to look at the executives behind him.

"The managers are here to visit our production line! Let's go! Do what we need to do!"

Hearing the boss's words, the executives breathed a sigh of relief and dispersed from the square downstairs.

Looking at their cautious appearance, Chu Guang felt helpless, but it was hard to say anything.

But at this moment, he suddenly thought of something and lowered his voice.

"Xiao Qi."

"What's the matter, Master?"

"What did you say to them when you arranged their affairs for me?"

A mischievous laugh came from the communication channel.

"Hehe... I didn't say anything, just that the respected manager would come to inspect first, so let them handle it themselves and come out to greet them."

It was just like that.

Chu Guang sighed and scolded him.

"Don't do such unnecessary things next time."

"Oh... Master, don't you like it?"

A wronged voice came from the communication channel, and Chu Guang didn't have the heart to say anything too harsh to criticize it.

"Power is a double-edged sword. We must be extremely careful when using it. Especially now that the sword is getting heavier than before."

"I hope you can convey my meaning more accurately next time, be serious when it is necessary, and be tactful when it is necessary, instead of taking the initiative to do some unnecessary things... especially such boring things as making me happy."

"Xiao Qi knows that I am wrong... I'm sorry, Master." The aggrieved voice sounded like it was reflecting on itself.

Chu Guang knew that Xiao Qi was also kind-hearted and did not deliberately do mischief, so he did not blame it too much.

But Chu Guang didn't notice that the CEO next to him, who had a red face, turned into the previous uneasy expression because of his sigh.

All along the way, he was wondering where he had offended this manager.

At this time, Lu Bei, who had been following Chu Guang closely without saying a word, suddenly took a few steps forward and whispered something to Chu Guang.

"Sir, I have found the result of the investigation you asked me."

Chu Guang immediately stopped and asked him with his eyes.

"Speak."

Lü Bei gave a look to the guards beside him, signaling them to keep the irrelevant people aside, and lowered his voice while Chu Guang continued.

"According to our informant's report from the Falcon Kingdom, a batch of arms did leave the country from the south of the Falcon Kingdom recently, passing through the eastern part of the Great Desert and heading to the southwest of Borneo Province."

"Xifan Port?"

"Not sure...but we can be sure that this batch of arms from the Wei Mansion did appear in Borneo Province, and we have a complete chain of evidence."

Chu Guang's eyes narrowed dangerously.

These big noses...

If anyone dares to do something small under his nose, he really treats the alliance as a soft persimmon.

"Pass my order and drag all the Wilantes to wherever their arms come from! In addition, send a copy of the evidence you have to Yan Yan."

Lu Bei looked solemn and stood at attention.

"yes!"

As soon as he finished speaking, noisy sounds came from the side.

"Sir, I was wronged! Please listen to my explanation!"

That voice sounded like a huge injustice.

Chu Guang was stunned for a moment, then looked towards the person from whom the voice came, and saw the CEO of Beijiao Heavy Industries looking like he was frightened. There was no trace of blood on his face, and he stretched out his hands to try to squeeze to his side. .

The two guards in front of him were confused. They didn't know why this guy was crazy, but they still dutifully stopped him with their arms.

My immediate boss, Zheng Yan, respects the managers who report confidential information. How could they let this guy squeeze in and eavesdrop!

Seeing that he refused to listen to the dissuasion, one of them pushed his arm hard and pushed him to the ground on the spot.

All members of the Guards are Awakened, and their power is beyond the ability of ordinary people to escape.

The love affair was too sudden, and Chu Guang was unjustly accused by this guy and that guy.

He thought to himself that he didn't say that this guy was guilty.

Lu Bei glanced subtly at the guy who was obviously harboring evil intentions, and then cautiously looked at the manager standing next to him.

"How about... let me check?"

Chu Guang sighed.

"Hurry and help the person up."

Lu Bei responded quickly.

"yes……"
