There must be something wrong with me

Chapter 434 - 175 Extraordinary Change_2

It’s entirely a high-leverage wartime economy.You could also call it a ’Keynesian’ stimulation.

Take, for example, the data center.

Zhang Feng looked at the total account balance; it’s not zero, but ’negative 1,960 trillion Federation Coins’.

This account can’t be balanced in a short time.

And this is the new account after clearing the previous one.

Previously, it was at the ’quadrillion’ level, relying entirely on global organizations and official subsidies.

Especially at present.

Without even looking at the accounts of various parties, Zhang Feng knows their capital flow is extremely fast, even terrifyingly so in global circulation.

This pace, Zhang Feng feels, will continue for a long, long time.

At least until superconductors are fully deployed.

According to the planning department’s estimates, it will be around fifteen years.

Then comes the mechanical platform, which is an even bigger deal.

Right now, it’s all supported by Z1.

As it stands, to benefit the people, you have to face the risk of collapse at any moment.

But if you raise prices, you can indeed achieve capital return.

After all, there is money now.

Zhang Feng now also discovered a problem, you can’t have both the fish and the bear’s paw.

In response, Zhang Feng sent a message to the planning department to find answers.

Not even a second later, they sent back several proposals.

Seems like they were prepared.

Zhang Feng looked over.

First, taxes, this is straightforward, but let’s not discuss it.

Second, once superconductors and Z1 are further expanded and deployed, capital will slowly return, but it will take time.

Third, adjust computational power allocation, such as shutting down a few small buildings.

Currently, each superconductor building consumes 5 billion in electricity per day (at half the current electricity price).

Now there are 100 superconducting buildings, so that’s 500 billion.

Not to mention, there are also 1200 ordinary ones, each with a daily cost of 500 million.

Combined, they consume 1.1 trillion daily, with both local governments and institutions subsidizing it.

This is not included in the data center accounts, otherwise, they would have exploded long ago.

Nowadays, data centers are more about ’research fees and materials and maintenance’ related expenses.

Without researching new projects, just the lowest maintenance cost (including Spirit Stones) is a daily operational cost of 320 billion.

Then all sides try to subsidize, while the data center shares the latest technology at ’zero price’.

But no matter what, computation power buildings are always the root of ’evolution’ for all parties.

This cannot stop.

So, can this plan work?

ic track construction.

In the second year after Zhang Feng’s return.

Federation Calendar.

Year 03, February 1st, early spring.

The first to reap the benefits was the Great Xia officials, who built the first ’superconducting maglev train’.
