Wandering Spaceship in Deep Space Chapter 132: Star Real Estate Tycoon

The launch of the "Golden Sun", the construction of this super mother ship consumed too much manpower and material resources of the Foundation.

Or the death of some key political figures, the changes of the times, and the disappearance of the true background of the "New Civilization School"...

A combination of various reasons, the Deep Space Foundation, a behemoth organization that has been standing for hundreds of years, finally ushered in its own period of decline.

A flower does not have a hundred days to be red, and a person does not have a thousand days to be good. It was as if seeing his last "old friend" step by step toward death, Zhang Yuan felt an inexplicable sadness in his heart.

But 5 light-years away, what he can do is just stand by and watch...

Next report.

"Dear colleagues of Earth Age and Golden Sun. I am the then chairman of the Deep Space Foundation, Ma Wentao."

"In this report, I will bring you the changes in earth civilization in recent years..."

Although the Deep Space Foundation is weak, it is an organization supported by government departments anyway. As long as it has government support, it will be more difficult to completely collapse.

The full text shows that the population continues to increase slowly, and has exceeded 60 billion. Coupled with the development of the Circumsolar System Project, the economy of the earth’s civilization is booming.

But another thing that looks small, but actually affects the entire human race has happened.

After crossing a certain line, housing prices on the earth began to soar!

Especially the housing prices in first-tier cities have soared in just ten years, doubling several times!

Why?

Going to space to work, isn’t it to make money?

Isn’t the money I made for returning home and enjoying a better life?

Where is a better life, of course it is on the earth!

Human beings are advanced organisms that have evolved from the earth and can fully adapt to the earth's environment, including earth's gravity, air pressure, microbial composition, and so on. Living on other planets, even with all kinds of high-tech equipment blessings, will still not be so comfortable.

So, on the earth, a house is definitely to be bought, and it is a kind of rigid demand.

Furthermore, a research investigation found that the average life span of people who live on Earth for a long time is much higher than that of other planets.

This has stimulated the enthusiasm of the whole people to buy a house!

Who wants to be short-lived for no reason!

But the space on the earth, especially high-quality housing, is limited. In order to live comfortably, a normal city will have certain plans. For example, the height of a skyscraper cannot exceed 1200 meters, and the spacing between the buildings must be so large that every household can get the sun, etc...

The villa?

Don't even think about it, the real rich and powerful, of course, live in villas.

There must also be a large number of supporting facilities, such as parks, pedestrian streets, hospitals, schools, and various entertainment venues.

Only such a house is an excellent place to live.

Zhang Yuan didn't pay much attention to the increase in housing prices this time, but treated it as a normal market behavior. There were several reports in a row that mentioned this matter, but he subconsciously ignored it.

Zhang Yuan didn't realize the importance and profoundness of the events until several major events happened later.

The first thing is the invisible financial crisis triggered by the real estate bubble. This wave of price increases was theoretically driven by rigid demand, but the price increase triggered a speculative frenzy among the people.

People hope that after buying a house, they will resell it in a few years to make a difference in the price. In this way, speculators began to spread flowers. The house has changed from a rigid demand product to an investment target. Government departments have urgently implemented various purchase restrictions, but housing prices are still rising.

During this kind of rapid price increase, the majority of the people's deposits have been exhausted, and all of them have been backed by huge mortgages...

The second major event, a certain real estate development giant directly bought all the land in a small and poor country for real estate development!

"What is this? Buy a country? A large interstellar real estate developer?" Zhang Yuan scratched his head.

This kind of staggering wealth really made Zhang Yuan take it seriously.

The soaring housing prices on the earth have become a historical event. It means that the poor will no longer have the right to live on the earth.

As for the original poor people, they became interstellar demolishers, happily acquiring a large amount of once unimaginable property, and then abandoning their hometown and happily heading to another planet...

For the poor, money is the most important thing. Life span is something that should be considered later.

Be happy if you have money!

Zhang Yuan doesn’t know if there is something tricky in it. Although the demolition has money to take, there are great short-term benefits, but there will always be some nailed households, right?

The entire country has been bought, and national sovereignty is gone. This kind of thing is too exaggerated.

Senior Brother Zhao said: "You have to know that in this era, the gap between nations is even greater than that between humans and monkeys."

"Like our country, with a stable political environment, it is a pioneer in the space industry and has developed rapidly for hundreds of years. However, in many countries, the development has been very slow in these hundreds of years, and there has not even been any development... In some areas, a cassava processing machine can still become the richest local man."

"Behind the capital giants is the country. When the big countries really look at their land, do they really have the right to choose? As long as they are not too ugly, who cares about sovereignty."

Zhang Yuan thought about it carefully, and he said that this kind of thing has happened long ago. For example, the country that once appeared on the earth, Nauru, is known as the "guano kingdom." As a result, this small country quickly went bankrupt after the guano was dug out, and it ended up being swallowed by Australia. The former land has become a prison.

The competition in the world is very fierce. No country will help another country free of charge.

These poor countries have no technology, no capital, and it is naturally impossible to develop their own national industries.

Even if it is developed, it will be defeated by better products, and there is no way to continue.

To take a concrete analogy, semiconductor technology began to rise in the middle of the 20th century. At that time, all theories and patents were in the ascendant. If a country starts to catch up from that time, it is not difficult.

Like Mu Guo and Bang Guo, both in the 20th century, after seizing the opportunity, became a semiconductor power ~ IndoMTL.com~ and Xia Guo began to vigorously develop semiconductor technology in the 21st century, only a few decades later , You have to pay double the price, because the market has long been occupied by the forerunners.

Fortunately, Xia Guo’s local market and talent pool are large enough to slowly catch up...

Nowadays, semiconductor technology has been developed for hundreds of years. If the leader of a small, impoverished country, slap his head and want to engage in semiconductors by himself, it is definitely an impossible task.

There are many things, if you miss it, you will miss it permanently, and the gap will widen and there will be no more possibility to make up.

In addition, with the development of the alien economy, a large number of polluting industries on the earth have been stopped, especially the gold and diamond mines discovered by Mercury, which are much better than those on the earth. Therefore, many countries have completely lost their economic sources and can only sell their land.

"In other words, the entire earth civilization is spontaneously expelling this part of the backward and poor population from the earth through economic benefits."

This is a subtle process that lasted... for more than a hundred years!
