"Although they are likely to buy it at the moment, I personally suggest that we still not invest in it. Even if there is a part of the renovation project of the Varyag, the funds we need to advance will probably not be less than 10 billion..."

Qi Zhiyuan looked at Xie Kai with a serious face.

Several senior management personnel from Hudong Shipyard and 404 Management Committee next to them had different expressions on their faces and were considering the operability of this matter.

"What did you think specifically? In order to divert the attention of the outside world, the conflicts between our internal military products and civilian products projects have been semi-public in recent years. If we do this project, all previous efforts will be in vain." Xie Jianguo asked Xie Kai directly what he thought.

Yue Lin didn't say anything beside him.

404 has developed too much and has become a leader in many fields.

If it develops according to the previous model, other units will not be as cooperative as before.

It has always shown a very contradictory relationship.

In the field of folk products, other competitors will naturally feel much more comfortable because the 404 affiliated companies need to provide huge funds to the scientific research bases behind them and cannot use their strong financial strength to crush other competitors.

The same is true in the military field.

Many projects are cooperation.

Some units will pull back because they see that 404 is developing too fast.

Once the Varyag renovation funds are borne by 404, others will naturally find clues.

"This is a very good opportunity. Although we cannot study the technical equipment provided by Damao, we can learn more and it will have a considerable effect on domestic related technologies... In addition, Hudong Shipyard does need orders..."

Xie Kai understands his ideas very clearly.

Do this.

"The loans from CITIC Bank may not be issued easily." Yue Lin reminded Xie Kai, "Although there is no problem with our capital chain and we are also an absolute shareholder of the controlling stake, this bank has always been considered our ATM..."

CITIC Bank has expanded rapidly with the investment of 404 over the years.

Compared with the four major banks in the country, it is much worse than other banks.

"It's true. Since our big aircraft project before, as long as we involve large projects in the field of civil goods, we have all obtained loans from China Credit Loan. Until now, we owe a total of 173 billion yuan to China Credit..."

Xie Jianguo's words shocked everyone.

When did the 404 base owe so much loans?

"Dad, you only talk about loans, why don't you talk about the funds we borrowed from the mortgage? Most of the loans are our own money, right? The funds we circulate on CITIC exceed 200 billion every year!" Xie Kai is not unaware of this matter.

If the 404 is not paid, even if the bank belongs to their own industries, it will not be possible to borrow so much.

In the entire country, except for the state issuing various bonds, no company owes much more than 404.

The four major banks are asking for loans to companies under 404.

A company has more than one trillion yuan in fixed assets and owes more than 170 billion yuan in loans, which is already extremely excellent.

If it is not for independently accounting for the costs and profits of each unit, the money earned through the bank and 404 is invested in subordinate enterprises, and there will be a surplus of tens of billions.

"In such a situation, who can say anything? If they want to say it, we will withdraw our investment from CITIC and then set up an internal bank to operate our internal assets!"

Xie Kai didn't care what others said at all.

Everyone here actually knows it.

"I don't mean that. Even if Da Mao really wants this aircraft carrier, it cannot be announced to the public, or even told the bank. It can only borrow money from the bank through the Hudong Shipyard. And it also has to clear its relationship with the navy." Xie Jianguo didn't expect his son to be so clear about the middle problem, so he could only smile bitterly.

"I personally provide $2 billion in funds and set up a special fund through CITIC Bank. The interest rate is calculated at the lowest international level and loan it to the Hudong Shipyard..."

He didn't know how much money Xie Kai had.

Before the outbreak of the Iraq War, international oil prices rose rapidly. He asked Qi Zhengshan and Simlet to make arrangements in advance and earned nearly 10 billion US dollars.

Zheng Yucheng and Wang Guilin's investment speed has been greatly reduced now, and they rarely invest in new companies every year.

Most of their jobs are to constantly inspect various industries they have invested in before.

Once an industry cannot keep up with development, all the shares in hand will be transferred, or the company will be repurchased.

After some companies develop, they want to redeem their equity or use a large amount of funds to dilute the equity of the investment company, and the two will inject capital into it frantically.

As a result, until now, the dividends they invest in the company bring in and the money they sell and cash out the equity.

Investing abroad?

There are some American companies, Xie Kai wants to invest.

But when you think of the Americans' urinary nature and want to withdraw funds from the United States, you can freeze any excuse.

Therefore, Xie Kai rarely invests in foreign companies.

Only let Qi Zhengshan and others leave some behind in order to operate the stock market.

Isn’t it because he doesn’t want to make that money. No matter how much he earns, it’s useful to not get it back?

Therefore, most of the funds are invested in the country.

For enterprises that can develop to a very high level in the future, there will not be much investment in this year, which leads to Xie Kai having a lot of cash in his hands.

"Personal investment? Isn't this suitable?" Yue Lin looked at Xie Kai worriedly.

I have never done this before in order not to give people a quarrel.

"There is nothing wrong. There is too much money and I can't spend it all. I discussed with Uncle Zheng and Uncle Wang before that we invest in some areas that are relatively scarce in countries, such as those related to artificial intelligence. This money will be transferred back in this way..."

After talking to Mr. Liu, Xie Kai fully analyzed the feasibility before making such a decision.

"It's useless for me to keep the money. Foreign investments include Haohua International, etc., so it's almost done. In the fields of artificial intelligence related, the country does not have enough funds to invest, and most private enterprises are unwilling to endure such a long capital recovery cycle..."

Xie Kai explained.

But no one thinks he really has too much money and has no place to spend it.

I only think that Xie Kai is using his personal funds to subsidize the development of the base.

"There must be done well in all kinds of contracts so that people can make trouble with such things." Xie Jianguo was a little worried.

"It's okay, Dad, what we have to do is to make the country's science and technology develop faster. I don't spend much money on my daily life..." Xie Kai told the truth.

Real estate is very popular, but he has not invested in this field.

"If everyone is like you, our country's technology will develop faster. The country's funds are not enough to take care of all fields. There are some blank areas with high technical demand and high investment costs but no one invests in..." Yue Lin sighed.

That's how things were decided.

After the Varyag is dragged back, it will discuss with experts from Damao to determine the reconstruction plan.

"What if the big hair is not needed in the end? What does it mean over there? They don't want all kinds of equipment then, and they are looking for Hudong Shipyard..."

Li Qingming, who had not spoken at first, asked Xie Kai worriedly.

If the Navy wanted the Varyag, he wouldn't say anything.

At least it is the navy of its own country.

They built warships for the sake of the navy.

"That's nothing. After completion, the Navy may have the money to equip the second aircraft carrier. Just slowly rebuild it."

"If they don't want it, wouldn't it be a waste?" Gu Baonong also felt that Xie Kai's idea was wrong.

After all, they want to build a new aircraft carrier.

It turns out that I don’t have much experience in construction.

Now, not only have two 707 aircraft carriers been built, but also one aircraft carrier that is no worse than the Varyag, so naturally I look down on the project of renovating the Varyag aircraft carrier.

"When the Navy will tolerate this aircraft carrier being idle like this? If Damao doesn't give money, he will just use it as a training ship for the Navy."

"Isn't the Navy no money?" Li Qingming didn't know why Xie Kai didn't agree, but now he suddenly supported this matter.

There must be something in the middle that they don't know.

"The Navy has enough money to buy, so rent it to them. Just give them a portion of the rent every year. Anyway, it is all state units, internal settlements, and it does not exist. If we don't say it, who can say what? If the Navy has money, they hope that the aircraft carrier can cover the Pacific Ocean."

Xie Kai naturally wouldn't tell them that even if he had only a 1% chance to sell the aircraft carrier to Damao, he wouldn't give up?

Mr. Liu's words have already revealed too many highly confidential content.

The two sides must have had contacts many times and made some progress.

Xie Kai naturally doesn't know what the specific content is.

But he also asked that if that time really came, he would negotiate the price with Damao.

Even if they did not cooperate, they retaliated against Damao. When the Navy wanted to buy Varyag, the Damao that was unable to complete the subsequent construction of Varyag actually increased from 50 billion to 70 billion!

According to the exchange rate at that time, the Varyag aircraft carrier did not come with a carrier-based aircraft, and Damao actually dared to offer a price of US$9 billion!

The American Nimitz-class nuclear-powered aircraft carrier cost only US$4.5 billion.

Even if there are a large number of weapon systems on the Varyag, it will not be much expensive.

How could Xie Kai miss such an opportunity?

"We are military-industrial units and serve national defense! We cannot only consider interests like those enterprises of civilian products units! How much money can many units make in undertaking national scientific research projects? If everyone does not do it, how can we quickly achieve scientific and technological progress?" Xie Kai reminded the two.

Hudong Shipyard belongs to the national unit.

Profits are needed, which is the basis for ensuring the operation and development of shipyards.

You can't give up opportunities for profit.

With such a long coastline and such a huge seaside, an aircraft carrier, it is definitely not enough.

Xie Kai didn't know how many aircraft carriers the country would build in the future.

When he left that era, the Varyag had basically formed combat power. The first domestic conventional-powered aircraft carrier was also launched on the water and mounted docks. The first aircraft carrier, which is said to be nuclear-powered, also began to lay keels...

Maybe, the country will really build 6 aircraft carriers?
