Chapitre 34: Chapter 34: Is the Consortium His Lapdog?
"Damn, a ship!"
"What a huge ship!"
"Are the routes open yet?"
"What a shame, you can only board in Saipan. It would be much better if we could take a ship directly from China."
"The tickets probably aren't cheap, after all it's 50 nautical miles."
"Even workers need to buy tickets?"
"Friend, you're going to work, not be king. Of course you're going to have to pay."
"It shouldn't be too expensive, about 13 dollars at most."
"That's it? I thought it was something big, ten ships can't be considered a big event."
Chen Yang said, "Alright, now let's announce the last thing. Hold your breath and don't blink."
With an enigmatic smile, Chen Yang slowly moved his cell phone.
The camera moved away from the ship, floated over the fishing boats, passed them and only stopped in the rightmost corner of the port.
And when the right corner of the harbor entered the lens, a ship that surpassed everyone's imagination, so huge that even through the screen one could feel its immensity, appeared.
Compared to the fishing boats and the harbor, anyone could intuitively see how huge this ship was.
The comments disappeared, the broadcast room was dead silent, everyone stared blankly at the giant ship, the shock in their hearts was indescribable.
Chen Yang's voice slowly sounded:
"This is the super-quantum luxury cruise specially designed for Yan Guo Kingdom, with a total weight of 168,000 tons, 348 meters long, 41 meters wide, 16 floors of passenger deck, 2,124 rooms and capacity for 5,064 guests."
"To build this cruise, Yan Guo Nation spent a total of 125 million US dollars and hired an anonymous company to build it."
"The cruise arrived in Yan Guo half a month ago and was named 'Hope of Yan Guo Nation'. At present, it is not in operation."
Chen Yang walked towards the cruise ship. As he approached, the grandeur of the ship became more and more evident.
He had purchased this cruise in the system for 500,000 points.
In fact, Yan Guo Nation didn't need this kind of thing, and no other country did either.
This type of luxury cruise is generally used for sea travel, with tickets open to the global public.
Chen Yang bought it for one reason only: to show power, create an air of mystery, and convey the message that the Yan Guo Nation is rich.
At the same time, it also served as the basis for the second sale of government bonds, similar to the purchase of helicopters.
Just imagine, spending almost 138 million dollars just to stand and admire it.
An investment this big would only be made by someone with too much money to spend.
Arriving at the front of the cruise, Chen Yang raised his head and not even the sky was visible anymore.
At this moment, netizens finally recovered from their shock.
"Damn!"
"Man, are you crazy? Spending 1.380 billion dollars to buy this?"
"If you're not going to use it, why did you buy it?"
"I'm a college student, I suggest you donate to me."
Chen Yang said, "Today's broadcast ends here, everyone, see you next time."
After the live broadcast, Yan Guo Nation became a trending topic in several countries.
The news released today was truly bombastic.
The Yan Guo Nation is countering!
Based on the job openings announced, we can deduce that Yan Guo Nation is prioritizing the high-end manufacturing sector, fishing and agriculture.
These three sectors do not require much advanced technology.
This is in line with predictions made by international experts.
It is worth highlighting the automobile factory that will hire thirty thousand people, clearly a project with the aim of attracting labor and encouraging the development of the sector.
The only thing that really surprised me was the purchase of a super-giant cruise ship.
In the meeting room, Zhou Hang asked in bewilderment, "What did he buy this cruise for?"
Zhao Yu replied, "For what else? To show power, obviously. The Yan Guo Nation does not have the necessary tourist infrastructure to use this type of vessel. It is just a display of wealth, with no practical use."
Lin Miaomiao, from the international investment department, disagreed: "But it is useful, yes. It is a tourist cruise, you just need to apply for authorization to operate routes and sell tickets. Tickets for this type of vessel are expensive and represent a good source of income ."
Zhao Yu sighed and said, "You don't understand what I meant. Everyone knows that cruises can sell tickets, but do you know how much those tickets cost? Even if a ticket costs 1,380 dollars, with five thousand people, it would only raise 6.9 million dollars. One trip per month, at most, right? Considering the crew, wear and tear and fuel costs, the net profit would be at most one or 276 thousand dollars, which means about 27.6 million dollars per year. ."
"Even considering onboard expenses, doubling that amount would still only make us $55.2 million a year."
"This cruise cost almost 13.8 billion dollars to build, so it will take almost thirty years to pay off."
"No sane person would invest in this type of business in a developing country."
"Therefore, it is clear that he bought this cruise just to show that he has money."
Lin Miaomiao pondered what Zhao Yu said and agreed that it was probably true.
She was still confused: "What is he thinking? It would be better to invest all that money in the country's infrastructure. Buying a cruise doesn't make sense."
Zhao Yu replied, "I already said that he doesn't need money, so we can't think like him. If we could understand his logic, we would be the kings of Yan Guo Nation."
Zhou Hang commented, "This guy is really incredible. In just three months, he managed to shape a country. It's impressive, even if he has the support of a consortium. And I have the impression that in many ways, the decisions are taken mainly by him."
"For example, this cruise. If it were a consortium driven only by profit, I would never buy it. I wonder which consortium would be so obedient? It's like it's his puppy."
