Start the era of black technology

In the United States, two interstellar spacecraft factories are under construction day and night, and plans to introduce the artificial intelligence system of Guge Company.

The construction idea is the same as Tianqi Group. The movable construction workshop introduces a large number of robotic arms to carry out mechanized production and accelerate the construction speed.

As time passed slowly, Xu Ping'an returned to the headquarters of City J. Just as he went to work today, Huo Minghai came to look for Xu Ping'an.

Xu Pingan greeted Huo Minghai to sit down and chat while drinking tea.

"Mr. Xu, we have to control it. According to my calculations, excluding the interstellar spacecraft orders received this year, our net profit this year will reach a new low."

"It's not a good thing that profits have decreased for three consecutive years," Huo Minghai said seriously.

Xu Ping'an was taken aback for a moment. Has it really reached this point? How could it have fallen so much.

"Do you know the reason?" Xu Pingan asked.

"The profit of the energy group has decreased, and the decline is not small. I communicated with Burson. The biggest reason is that the market is saturated."

"After years of development, solar panels, wind energy equipment, and hydrogen energy industry are almost universal."

"New profit growth points are needed," Huo Minghai said directly.

"What's the status of other branches" Xu Pingan asked.

"Other divisions have not changed much. Tianqi Logistics Group has only maintained marginal profit so far this year. It will take time to achieve substantial profit growth."

"The profit of Tianqi Chemical Group is also declining. Because of the popularity of small single-person attack submarines in the world in recent years, all countries have compressed naval establishments."

"The sales of Super Paints have begun to decline. Taking orders from the United States as an example, they have dropped by half, and..." Huo Minghai said everything he knew Again.

"We need to open up a new way of making money" Huo Minghai immediately added.

Although Huo Minghai said so, he wasn't very anxious, even if the net profit of Tianqi Group had fallen, it would be disdainful of the crowd.

Still much higher than other international giants.

It's just that Xu Pingan focuses on space development and spends too much money.

What Huo Minghai said today is very simple. I hope Xu Ping'an can control his investment in space and be more stable.

Although I know the grand strategy of Tianqi Group, it is really crazy for Tianqi Group to spend money recently. Huo Minghai, who has always been prudent, is a little worried.

It doesn’t cost much to buy an island, but it’s not too much to describe the purchase of equipment and various projects.

Xu Pingan thought about it seriously, and shook his head. It is not suitable for extravagance for the time being. Once a new product is launched, it will definitely cause turmoil in the industry.

In terms of the current international situation, this is something that many countries do not want to see, including China, E country, the United States, and Europe.

"Chemical Group's products need to be upgraded. I will discuss this with Miao Yong. We are not without a new generation of products, but this product has been sealed."

"Now, it's time to withdraw this product," Xu Pingan said directly.

"What product is it?" Huo Minghai asked curiously.

"Super nano coating, sprayed on the surface of the submarine, has the effect of reducing the detection of the submarine by sonar"

"Once it is put on the market, the current sonar detectors of the military of various countries will all face the situation of being eliminated, and they will all be replaced with new sonar systems, which may not be a good thing for us," Xu Pingan rubbed his head and said.

Huo Minghai nodded. Tianqi Group has about forty submarines, and they are all one generation ahead of the market. This type of submarine is not for sale and is only for internal use by Tianqi Group.

The security company once conducted an experiment. A new generation of submarines could sail alongside the US fleet. Just five hundred meters away, the US fleet never found it.

It is not excessive at all to describe the new generation of submarines as sea ghosts.

Moreover, it is still being upgraded, and the research and development of the new generation of submarines at the Antarctic base has not stopped and has been ongoing.

"What's the profit on the golden grass?" Xu Pingan asked.

"The profit is very good, and it will hit a new high this year"

"It's just that I heard the news that someone proposed to impose tobacco tax on golden grass" Huo Minghai said directly.

"I don't know whether to live or die, I will solve this matter" Xu Ping'an said with a gloomy face.

Wu Sikai told Xu Ping An about this matter last year. Someone planned to promote this matter. Xu Ping An has been paying attention, but he didn't do anything when he saw that these people were quiet.

Now even Huo Minghai has heard about it, obviously, these people are planning to do something.

Huo Minghai felt relieved when Xu Pingan said this. As the financial director of Tianqi Group, Huo Minghai knew a lot more than usual.

"By the way, do we have any unannounced public welfare projects this year?" Xu Ping'an asked again.

"There are three more. One is to build a large freshwater reservoir in Dunhuang, which cost about 7.6 billion Tianchao dollars."

"Building large wind towers from Dunhuang to Tibet, and then extending to the central region to build more than 500 large wind towers to intervene in climate projects in the central region, with a total investment of about 5.8 billion tianyuan."

"There is also a plan to assist several countries in Africa to build forest corridors, which cost about 500 million euros." Huo Minghai expertly took out the project and expenses.

Xu Pingan thought for a moment and said, "Just keep the reservoir project, the wind tower project and the African aid project will all be cancelled, let's talk about it later."

"Mr. Xu, the person above the aid project in Africa was the one that led the way," Huo Minghai reminded.

"Frankly speaking, no money"

"If you have any comments, let them come to me," Xu Ping'an said rudely.

Huo Minghai curled his lips and said nothing, Xu Ping'an made a decision and executed it himself.

Continue to maintain your own principles and do not participate in business matters.

The two chatted for a while, and Huo Minghai returned to his finance department and immediately began to make adjustments to transfer the funds for the two cancelled public welfare projects to the reserve fund.

Then start to prepare the materials and want to submit to the relevant departments.

To do public welfare projects, companies need to submit project plans to relevant departments in advance, which involves many aspects. If you withdraw, you also need to report materials to relevant departments in advance.

Soon, the materials were earned in the Administration Department, and the people in the Administration Department began to submit the materials to the relevant departments.

In the past two days, Yuan Shiping saw the report and ran to Tianqi Group to see Xu Ping An.

The reason for the withdrawal stated on the material is simple and the funds are tight.

Just kidding internationally, you Tianqi Group is short of funds. Ask anyone on the planet who would believe this reason.

Xu Pingan greeted Yuan Shiping to sit down and drink tea. After listening to Yuan Shiping's intention, he directly reported three numbers, which made Yuan Shiping dumbfounded.

Tianqi Group's profits have fallen sharply for three consecutive years. How is this possible?

"It's so serious." Yuan Shiping looked disbelief.

"Mayor, seriously, when I saw the relevant report, I didn't believe it was true."

"You can investigate the market and see the market sales at a glance, and you can tell if I'm lying."

"My Tianqi Group must increase revenue and reduce expenditure"

"If you open source, it will subvert traditional industries and cause domestic and foreign economic turmoil. Therefore, I can only cut expenditures," Xu Ping'an said with a helpless expression.

"But these two projects are only about one billion euros, you really want to cancel," Yuan Shiping said directly.

"No cancellation is possible"

"I can only lay off employees"

"If you still disagree in this regard, then I will open source"

"Tianqi Group is not responsible for the shock and turbulence caused by the subversion of the market" Xu Ping An said this sentence very calmly.

"When did you take responsibility"

"When your solar panels went on the market, the solar panels of Tianchao already accounted for more than 80% of the world's share."

"As a result, your carbon crystal solar panels plunged into the bottomless abyss in one fell swoop. A dozen large groups went bankrupt and hundreds of thousands of workers were unemployed."

"The state spends a lot of money to subsidize laid-off workers' living problems and reemployment problems, what responsibility do you pay?"

"There is also hydrogen energy. When you kill two barrels of oil, have you ever thought about what employees with two barrels of oil should do?"

"For the Golden Grass Project, I don't need to tell you how big the impact is."

"You are responsible, what responsibility do you take?" Yuan Shiping replied directly.

"Wait a minute, I admit the impact caused by the solar panel project, I admit the latter two"

"Two barrels of oil dumped millions of employees to me. Don't say that you don't know this."

"It has an impact on the tobacco industry. Don't forget your identity. You are the chairman of the J City Smoking Cessation Committee. Smoking is harmful to your health. Golden Herb does not have this problem."

"I make people healthy"

"Why, do you still hope that the people are unhealthy if they smoke every day" Xu Ping'an will immediately respond.

Yuan Shiping was stunned. Xu Pingan really couldn't refute these two points. As the chairman of the Smoking Cessation Committee, he really couldn't refute these words.

Yuan Shiping took a deep breath and said, "Peace, I have a proposal, listen to it."

"You said, I'll listen carefully," Xu Ping'an said directly.

"Global warming is gradually intensifying. Although the magnitude is not as large as before, it is still rising. You know this very well."

"Our country's meteorological experts have collectively demonstrated that with climate change, extreme weather of high temperature and high pressure will occur in our headquarters area."

"It spreads around province Y as the center. We are the hardest hit area here. If we don't change it, the place we are now will become barren."

"We can transfer the rich water in the south, and at the same time, we must also adjust the temperature and pressure in the central region to cause atmospheric circulation."

"To accomplish this, you must build enough wind towers. This is also the plan proposed by your Tianqi Group Research Institute."

"Now your profit is declining, we can divide it into three parties, the state invests part, neighboring provinces invest part, you are investing part"

"The specific implementation of the wind tower plan is still led by your Tianqi Group, and we will not interfere."

"What do you think about this plan? It can be implemented as a large-scale public welfare project of your Tianqi Group every year"

"As for the project in Africa, if you cancel it, cancel it. I won't say anything else" Yuan Shiping said directly about his plan.

Xu Pingan thought about it. The large-scale wind tower project is not just a public welfare project. The reason why Tianqi Group proposed this project is to conduct air convection and atmospheric chemical reaction experiments.

It's just that this purpose cannot be stated, it can only be done in the name of public welfare.

The air convection experiment is a project set up for the rapid establishment of an artificial atmosphere after the reconstruction of the Martian magnetic field. It is very important. If it were not for the current decline in profitability, Xu Ping'an would not stop this project.
