Chapter 5 - Total Production Cost Disclosure: House Trucks

A new table appeared on the meeting room screen.This time, the ratios included decimal points.

"Reality is never perfectly round,"TF Team Leader Han Seo-jin said.

1. Total House Truck Supply

Total units supplied: 3,100 households

Base model: 15 m² House Truck

Base sale price per unit: USD 59,230

Base residential revenue3,100 × 59,230 = USD 183.6 million

2. Module Expansion Selection Ratio (Final)

Container module specifications

Size: 3 m × 6 m (≈ 18 m²)

Price per additional module: USD 23,080

Actual applicant selection distribution

No module added: 13.1% (406 units)

1 module: 18.4% (570 units)

2 modules: 27.6% (856 units)

3 modules: 29.3% (908 units)

4 modules: 11.6% (360 units)

A quiet murmur spread through the room.

"Three modules is the most common…""People are choosing bigger units than expected."

3. Total Module Demand

The calculation was straightforward.

570 × 1 = 570 modules

856 × 2 = 1,712 modules

908 × 3 = 2,724 modules

360 × 4 = 1,440 modules

Total container modules required: 6,446 units

4. Module Expansion Revenue

Sale price per module: USD 23,080

6,446 × 23,080= USD 148.7 million

5. Total Residential Revenue (Phase 1)

A bold number appeared at the center of the screen.

Base House Truck revenue: USD 183.6M

Module expansion revenue: USD 148.7M

Total residential revenue: USD 332.3 million

Kim Young-ah muttered softly,"At this level… they've bought an entire city."

6. Actual Cost Structure (Fully Disclosed)

① Electric truck base cost

Factory price: USD 30,770

Government EV subsidy: USD 17,690

Net purchase cost: USD 13,080

3,100 × 13,080 = USD 40.6M

② Special vehicle conversion (House Truck body)

Cost per unit: USD 7,690

3,100 × 7,690 = USD 23.8M

③ Container module production cost

Cost per module: USD 15,380

6,446 × 15,380 = USD 99.2M

7. Total Production Cost

Vehicle cost: USD 40.6M

Special conversion: USD 23.8M

Module production: USD 99.2M

Total cost: USD 163.6 million

The room fell completely silent.This time, the numbers were too clear.

8. Remaining Amount from Phase 1 Residential Business

Total revenue: USD 332.3M

Total production cost: USD 163.6M

Remaining amount: USD 168.7 million

9. Kang Do-yoon's Comment

"This isn't profit," Do-yoon said."It's a statistical measure of how desperate people were."

Turning off the screen, he added,"And this structure will only grow."

10. Next Slide: Required Production Capacity

Displayed by Park Hae-yoon.

Electric trucks: 3,100 units

Special vehicle production lines: Minimum 4 concurrent lines

Container modules: 6,400+ units

The room lights dimmed another level.

This wasn't about revenue or margin anymore.It was about one question:

Can this city be operated immediately?

11. Integrated Truck City Production Infrastructure Package

Do-yoon opened a separate slide.

"Core Urban Survival Systems – Integrated from Production Stage"

"These aren't optional add-ons," he said."They must exist from day one."

① AI City Operations System

Resident movement pattern analysis

Automated emergency prioritization

Integrated control of medical, fire, power, and water systems

Server redundancy and real-time backup

"This city must react faster than people."

② Solar + Distributed Power System

Rooftop solar panels on House Trucks

ESS linked to container modules

Independent nighttime emergency power

Minimum 72-hour operation during outages

"Electricity is the bloodstream of a city."

③ ESG-Based Water Circulation System

Household water recovery, purification, reuse

Rainwater storage tanks

Separation of cleaning and fire-fighting water

Complete prevention of contaminated discharge

"This city stands beside a landfill,""Water cannot be the first thing to escape."

④ Automated Fire and Disaster Prevention

Internal automatic fire suppression

Fire isolation valves between container connections

Dedicated EV battery fire response systems

Central control integration

"Fire moves faster than people."

⑤ Air and Wastewater Purification Systems

Fine dust filtration

Industrial odor blocking

Wastewater purification and reuse

Designed for children and elderly safety

Han Seo-jin said,"This isn't housing. It's an environmental response facility."

⑥ Site Preparation and Construction Costs

Land leveling

Ground reinforcement

Access roads and circulation paths

Drainage and waterproofing

Initial landscaping and buffer green zones

"These are the costs of not lying to the land."

12. Total Integrated Production Cost (Finalized)

All systems included from the production stage.

AI, energy, environment, safety, infrastructure, and construction:USD 91.5 million

Someone murmured,"At this level… it's better than a standard new-city infrastructure."

Do-yoon nodded."Yes.But this isn't a city.It's a survival device."

13. Final Financial Structure Summary

Residential revenue: USD 332.3M

Production cost (vehicles + modules): USD 163.6M

Remaining amount: USD 168.7M

Integrated city infrastructure cost: USD 91.5M

14. Final Phase 1 Structure

Actual remaining capital: USD 77.2 million

The room went quiet again.This time, no one questioned the numbers.

15. Kang Do-yoon's Final Words

"This money isn't profit," he said."It's the connection cost to the next city."

He stood up.

"We're not selling houses—"

He paused.

"We're manufacturing cities.Truck City begins now."
