Chapter 506: An aircraft with a bright future!
"Your grandfather's illness these past few days has deeply touched me. I think it's time for our family to invest in a hospital. What do you think?"
The old Tang family in Chuzhou.
After Grandpa came to Chuzhou, it was impossible for Dad to stay in the hospital all the time. After all, he had a lot of things to do.
So my grandfather hired two special caregivers, and my grandmother was there too. In addition, my uncle, my aunt, and my cousin who was still on summer vacation would also take turns to take care of me.
Generally speaking, you won't be alone at grandpa's place.
Now, after returning from the company, Tang Xionghua washed up, went to the study to find Tang Yichen, and started talking about business.
Hearing his father's suggestion, Tang Yichen immediately nodded and said, "Dad, I actually have the same idea. Grandpa and grandma are old, and the medical conditions at home are not good. If we invest in a hospital, it would be best to build it at home. After all, grandpa and grandma don't want to leave!"
"Yes!" Tang Xionghua nodded: "Then we can choose an address in our hometown!"
For Tang Xionghua, this hospital is purely based on the health of his family rather than making money, so the location should naturally be as close to his parents as possible.
At this point, Tang Xionghua spoke again: "In addition, I am also planning to invest in some foreign research on health care drugs for longevity. What do you think?"
Tang Yichen was slightly surprised.
To be honest, Tang Yichen hadn't thought about this before. After all, he was only in his early thirties in his previous life, and he was even more straightforward in this life, thinking about prolonging his life.
But now that his father had said that, thinking of the old man's situation, Tang Yichen nodded: "This is indeed possible, and I know that in fact, rich people all over the world have been doing this."
At this point, Tang Yichen paused. "But Dad, there's no need for us to blindly look for investment opportunities. Domestic wealthy people are generally young and strong and rarely engage in this kind of business. However, many wealthy people in Hong Kong and abroad must have done research on this. I suggest that Dad, you go to Hong Kong sometime and hold a party. While building some connections, you can also invest in some of the related industries they have."
Speaking of connections, the Tang family is actually very weak now. Even though Tang Xionghua is very famous in Hong Kong, the only real connection the Tang family has in Hong Kong is with Mr. Huo.
As for the others, Xiang Qiang is one, and there are no more.
This is mainly because the Tang family has been making their fortune for too short a time. During this period, the Tang family has been accumulating capital at an accelerated pace and has had no time to stop and build connections.
Of course, at this point, it is very easy for Tang Xionghua to make connections.
Because for others, he himself is a kind of connection that is easy to climb up.
"Well, that's fine, but it's better to rely on yourself than on others. Investing in other people's existing research labs is one way, but I also want to invest in a research institute myself.
In addition, I want to learn how to operate capital abroad. By then, medical schools around the world, including some in China, will set up research labs, provide funding, and support research and development! "
"Yeah, sure!"
Tang Yichen nodded. Although if he really followed his father's approach, the investment would no longer be a one-time investment, but a one-time large investment, followed by continuous transfusions every year. The subsequent total investment would be a bottomless pit.
However, as the saying goes, time is money. Now Tang Xionghua really wants to buy his life from God, so how can he not be willing to invest money?
Moreover, this achievement can be used not only by grandpa and grandma, but also by Tang Xionghua and Tang Yichen in the future.
The richer you are, the more afraid you are of death. Tang Yichen has always admitted this.
"Oh, by the way, do you have any good helicopter brands? I'm planning to buy one for my home!"
Suddenly, Tang Xionghua shifted to this topic.
Tang Yichen was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Sure, we can also find a place here to build a helipad, but I don't know much about buying a helicopter!
This thing really touched Tang Yichen's blind spot in knowledge. Even in his previous life, Tang Yichen would have no connection with helicopters in his life!
For Tang Yichen, this thing was completely in the dark.
Of course, when his father mentioned the helicopter, Tang Yichen also told him the plan he had thought of when he came back from the Bahamas.
“Dad, we can buy a helicopter, but I don’t think it’s as safe as a gyroplane.
I am thinking about investing in a rotorcraft company in the country.
It just so happens that we have developed our own car engine, haven’t we?
When the time comes, we will use this engine to directly upgrade the industry, not only in cars, but also in airplanes!"
Tang Yichen's words really stunned Tang Xionghua.
"What?"
Tang Xionghua was dazed, as if his previous questions had touched upon the blind spots in Tang Yichen's knowledge from two lifetimes.
Now Tang Yichen's words were also beyond his understanding.
"Can airplanes use car engines?"
"Can your plane use 92% gasoline?"
"Also, what is a gyroplane? What's the safety of fighting?"
Tang Xionghua was filled with doubts...
"There are such planes?"
Tang Yichen explained the principles and situation of the rotorcraft.
Tang Xionghua felt a little bit unbelievable at that moment.
Although he is the richest man now, being the richest man does not mean he knows everything.
It's normal not to understand things like this that you don't come into contact with often.
Tang Yichen smiled and said, "Yes! This thing doesn't rely on the engine transmission to drive the propeller to take off. So even if the engine stops working in the air and loses power, it can rely on its own propeller, airflow, and the force generated by its own weight to generate lift. So, in theory, this thing cannot crash."
“If it’s so good, why not develop it vigorously?”
Tang Xionghua asked a rather ignorant question.
Tang Yichen smiled and explained, "This is because of its structure. Its maximum takeoff weight is generally limited to 500 kilograms. With a light payload, its commercial value is low. Naturally, no one will promote it."
"Only 500 kilograms?" Tang Xionghua also frowned deeply.
To be honest, when he heard Tang Yichen say this just now, he had a question. Why is it that this aircraft is said to be the safest, but he has never even heard of it now?
The emotional reason is here.
And this reason is indeed fatal.
The take-off weight of 500 kg almost limits most conceivable commercial methods.
However, if it is just used as a family vehicle, it is indeed quite good.
The sky is not crowded, safe and fast.
And if it is feasible, this thing can actually be promoted for private ownership in the country.
“Is this thing expensive?
I mean, how much taller than a car?
In the future, will this be developed towards civilian use?"
Tang Xionghua asked several questions again.
Tang Yichen nodded and said, "This thing is actually not very expensive. If we use the simplest structure, the biggest cost is almost the engine. The requirements for this engine are not very high, and the engine of an ordinary car will do.
So strictly speaking, the cost will not exceed that of a car.
