CHAPTER 1764: CHAPTER 925: LIU CHUANJIE VOLUNTEERS_2

"Mm-hmm."

Ding Yue nodded, smiling as he said, "Currently, our Mist City Arts and Science University is training generation after generation of aerospace talents, and the Group has vigorously developed Feiyue Aerospace as a benchmark for private aerospace technology. Therefore, building these two space launch sites is very important. However, this means the pressure is on your side now."

Once Ding Yue finished speaking, everyone in the video conference finally reacted.

Oh, right.

Building two space launch sites means that Feiyue Construction Company needs to call back personnel to undertake these two new projects domestically. Consequently, the pressure on the Oasis City mega-project in New Cairo City has increased.

This is an issue that cannot be ignored.

"Principal Ding, how many people are needed for the two space launch sites?"

Chen Ping was practical and asked the most crucial question directly.

"At least two construction teams are needed. However, there’s no issue with construction teams; we can recruit domestically. It’s the design aspect that requires a team to coordinate with Feiyue Aerospace."

Ding Yue earnestly answered Director Chen Ping’s question.

"Principal Ding, can I come back to participate in the design?"

At this time, Liu Chuanjie volunteered.

"Xiao Liu, you’re a key player in this project’s team," Chen Ping quickly said.

"Uh, I mean, I’ll complete the design work here in New Cairo City as quickly as possible and then join the design of the two launch centers."

Liu Chuanjie confidently said.

"This... won’t the work pressure be too much?"

Ding Yue frowned, looking at Liu Chuanjie.

Although volunteering is indeed commendable, Ding Yue still considered that since he had already taken on much of the massive New Cairo City project, returning to participate in the design and planning of the desert and island space launch centers would naturally be more exhausting.

"Principal Ding, it’s okay, it’s okay. I can handle all these tasks well, and there’s absolutely no delay on the New Cairo City side. Mainly, I really like aerospace. If I can contribute to our Feiyue Aerospace, I’d be delighted, but as for the salary, hehe..."

Liu Chuanjie volunteered but was still very pragmatic.

"Ahem, you won’t be short-changed, in our Feiyue Group, everyone’s value will certainly become RMB in your pocket—no, in your bank account."

Ding Yue said with a smile.

This is something Ding Yue could completely assure; given the current scale of Feiyue Group, it hasn’t even gone public, and Ding Yue doesn’t intend to list it either because he doesn’t care about how much money can be made. For the company’s employees, as long as you have the ability, your capabilities will be reflected in your high salary and benefits.

"Xiao Liu, if you can ensure that the project progress here is not affected, I also support you in assisting Feiyue Aerospace."

Chen Ping also expressed his stance: "But just you alone isn’t enough."

"Mm-hmm, Director Chen, perhaps you could ask around the company to see who would be willing to return and join the projects of those two space launch centers?"

Liu Chuanjie suggested to Director Chen Ping.

In other words, those who voluntarily wish to participate in the space launch center projects can do so, but there’s one condition: they must ensure no delays in the New Cairo City project.

"Upholding the principle of voluntariness, the Group won’t enforce it."

Ding Yue nodded in agreement with Liu Chuanjie’s suggestion and said, "If necessary, we’ll have to recruit more people externally."

"Principal Ding, our Feiyue Construction Company is full of talents, and there are many excellent juniors at Mist City Arts and Science University’s School of Architecture," Liu Chuanjie said immediately.

"Where are the junior girls?"

Someone joked, lightening the atmosphere of the meeting.

Ding Yue also smiled and retorted, "There are definitely some junior girls in the School of Architecture."

"Hahaha."

Everyone laughed heartily.

Ding Yue really enjoyed this kind of meeting atmosphere. Sometimes being able to chat and laugh with everyone is quite nice. Those very serious meeting atmospheres seem too oppressive.

"Well, Director Chen, I’m waiting for your news. In any case, please expedite the arrangements. If there really aren’t enough hands, let me know in advance, so we can make better preparations."

Ding Yue seriously spoke to Chen Ping.

"I understand, Principal Ding, rest assured that I’ll do my best to arrange it," Director Chen Ping promptly responded.

"You are all overseas, and you might not return for a long time. Thank you all for the hard work. Many might stay abroad for two or three years for the Oasis City New Cairo City project. However, you are creating a miracle in the history of global architecture. Keep it up."

Ding Yue sincerely recognized everyone’s contributions to the New Cairo City project and also encouraged everyone.

"Actually, being involved in the New Cairo City project excites and delights the majority of our company," Chen Ping shared with Principal Ding the feelings of most Feiyue Construction Company employees involved in the project.

Indeed.

New Cairo City, a project worth tens of billions, is coveted by any large international construction firm.

Landing in the hands of Feiyue Construction Company is undoubtedly an honorable project for them. If they accomplish this project successfully, both they and their representative Feiyue Construction Company will become the focus of worldwide attention.

Such an honor makes anyone participating happy internally, rather than feeling annoyed about being sent abroad for construction work.

Ultimately, this video meeting lasted for about half an hour and then concluded.

It’s been generally determined that Feiyue Construction Company can, despite the pressure, muster a team of architectural design professionals to return home and participate in the desert and island space launch center projects, while upholding New Cairo City project commitments.

However, regarding the construction teams, the eight overseas teams remain in place since the construction demand at the New Cairo City project is still large.

With the foreign construction teams unchanged, two additional teams need forming domestically, one for the desert and one for the island.

The construction volume for the desert and island launch center sites is relatively smaller than New Cairo City’s demands and even significantly lesser than Mist City Arts and Science University’s South Campus, so one team each is well-sufficient.

After the meeting concluded,

Ding Yue gave a few instructions to An Yujia.

"Miss An, I’ll leave the construction of the two space launch center projects to you. Don’t worry; once I’m there, I’ll handle the village relocation on the island."

"Aerospace launch centers are crucial to our Feiyue Aerospace; apart from technological research in the aerospace domain, these two are the top priority."

"Okay, Principal Ding."

Having taken note of Principal Ding’s instructions, An Yujia committed each word to memory.

Then An Yujia went on to organize the related operations, as the construction of aerospace launch centers by Feiyue Aerospace this time involves not just Feiyue Aerospace alone but also the collaboration with the construction company, requiring coordination from her side.

Meanwhile, Ding Yue made some simple preparations and planned to head to the island together with the personnel from the Space Administration and NTS in the coming days to resolve the village relocation around the island’s space launch site.

This issue was something even the overseas Space Exploration Technology Company once faced.

Space Exploration Technology Company had a launch site built near a village; later, to establish this launch site, they directly purchased all the properties in that village at prices above market value.

This was indeed an excellent solution.

But Ding Yue wasn’t sure if this solution would be applicable on the island this time. It could be tricky dealing with particularly inflexible individuals.
