Chapter 1379: Laying Down a Huge Territory
Before Zhang Qiang entered the conference room, he pulled Alvin to a corner alone...
Taking out a cigar and handing it to Alvin, Zhang Qiang hesitated and said, "How much effort do you think we should invest here?"
Alvin frowned and looked at Zhang Qiang and said, "What do you mean?
Is the situation here holding you back? "
Zhang Qiang took out a lighter and lit a cigar for Alvin, then lit one for himself, and said helplessly: "The scale of the war here is so big that I'm a little worried that I can't control the situation!
We’re worried that we won’t be able to allocate energy to care about the investment in hell..."
As he spoke, Zhang Qiang glanced at Alvin, who was frowning, and said: "We are not short of money and manpower, but we need suitable weapons to arm my soldiers.
The problem of the failure of gunpowder weapons here makes everyone hesitate..."
Alvin squinted at Zhang Qiang, who seemed to be looking sad. He sneered and said, "Forget it, I'll stay here and finish the war for you. It won't be too much trouble anyway..."
As he spoke, Alvin hugged Zhang Qiang who was smiling bitterly, and said with a smile: "Then you go back to hell in a down-to-earth manner, and remember to dig a few more spoons of soil back home...
Maybe if you accumulate thousands of spaceships, you can become the king of the solar system..."
How could Alvin fail to hear Zhang Qiang's voice...
These bastards were not worried about the long battle line. They were interested in Stark's "Warhammer" mobile armor.
When it comes to the quality of mobile armor, the troops these guys brought into hell all have better armor...
But these guys with sharp eyes can see at a glance the characteristics of Stark's "Warhammer", which is that it is cheap and practical...
They know better than anyone else the significance of Nidwinir as a frontline and the significance of mankind's participation in the war...
If you really want them to stand aside, these guys might hang themselves for themselves!
Zhang Qiang put away the "wry smile" on his face and said helplessly: "Can you stop being so shrewd?
When we fight a war, we also have to consider the cost...
The Gunslingers are currently guarding the country while establishing positions in hell. Recently, they are mining on the moon while helping with epidemic prevention work...
We can't treat those soldiers on the front line badly, right?
It’s not easy for everyone…”
As Zhang Qiang looked at the unmoved Alvin, he smiled bitterly and said: "Isn't the 'Warhammer' designed to be used by ordinary soldiers?
Who can use this kind of thing, you or Stark?
Your men are of no use either...
Give us a real price and we’ll buy it together and share it!
Supplying weapons to interstellar teams all over the world is a big piece of cake that even your ‘Steel Digital’ and Stark Group can’t eat together...”
Alvin thought about it for a moment, hesitated, and said: "We must supply the 'warhammers' on the Nidwinir front line, and the price will definitely not be very expensive..."
In addition, I will give you 5 minutes to negotiate a patent usage price...
Remember, I accept one offer!
If you don't succeed, you might as well go dig in hell!
I would rather borrow troops to fight with that demon prince Boer than argue with one of my own people...
We are working hard at the front with people, money, and effort, but you don't want to give anything. It doesn't make sense..."
Alvin gave the conditions without going to Stark directly to discuss it, because he knew that Stark didn't care about "Warhammer" at all...
Stark is an obsessive-compulsive person with perfectionistic tendencies...
The first mechanical prosthesis he designed for Nick seemed great to Alvin, but he felt that there could be something better, so enhanced mechanical prostheses were born, and even nano-prosthetics on Nick's body...
As long as there is a better one, he will abandon the previous excessive gadgets like worn shoes...
"Warhammer" is a defective product in Stark's eyes. Let him negotiate by himself, maybe he will give this thing to the other party for free.
And although Stark didn't say it explicitly, Alvin knew that the birth of "Warhammer" was not to take care of the Avengers at all...
It is actually designed for soldiers from various countries who may participate in war in the future.
Stark is not doing this for money at all...
But from Alvin's point of view, he must warn those cunning politicians...
Otherwise, if they get used to this kind of almost free dedication, they will have troubles one after another in the future...
Alvin asked himself that he had done enough...
"Selfless dedication" should not become the norm!
He could guess that Zhang Qiang was the one who was pushed out to resist the thunder...
But that’s not important. Whatever you want from me, you must pay an equal price.
Zhang Qiang felt a little helpless that Alvin skipped Stark and made conditions directly...
After hesitating for a while, Zhang Qiang took a long puff of cigar and said: "I can make the decision and give you two plans...
The first one is that we invest 20 billion US dollars to buy the design drawings of "Warhammer" at one time, and you must cooperate with us to design an efficient production line.
Second, we invested US$2 billion to buy the license. In the future, Stark Group will receive a US$2,000 licensing bonus for every set of ‘Warhammer’ produced.
Likewise, you must help us design an efficient and stable production line!
Of course the order from Niedervenir can only be placed with you, but we need a suitable quotation.
These are individual equipment for soldiers...
Of course I'm not stingy about buying equipment for my soldiers, but you can't make me spend money on tanks to arm our soldiers.
The number of soldiers who will land in Niedervenir in the future will definitely far exceed your expectations...
We can't afford it..."
Alvin looked at Zhang Qiang's serious expression, and he knew that this guy must still have room...
After thinking about it, Alvin nodded and said: "I will discuss the money matter with Stark, and you guys will also talk about it.
What I'm more concerned about right now is, do you have any plans?
I can't stay here forever. I'm just standing in front of you, and you still need to fight the battle.
Let me remind you, those Asgardians and dwarves are not stupid!
If you cheat on the battlefield, you will definitely be the unlucky one in the end! "
Zhang Qiang nodded confidently after hearing this and said: "We have a clear goal, and we are not participating in the war just to visit.
It just takes a while to establish a mature combat system...
We have ready-made equipment on Earth, as long as you can buy us enough time...
We can build a self-sufficient war city here! "
Alvin didn't know where Zhang Qiang's confidence came from, but he believed that this leader of the Gunslingers Club would not lie.
As the first large organization to fly out of the earth to start a war, the Sharpshooter Association has always shown great responsibility and courage in front of him.
With only one spaceship's manpower, they overwhelmed the moon "Attilan"...
Now they actually start to help each other prevent the epidemic and try to save lives...
Specifically, Alvin didn't care at all whether they planned to deal with "Attilan" without any blood in the end.
He never looks at issues from the perspective of a politician...
Alvin didn't know why the plague broke out in "Attilan", but the Gunslingers Association did bring its humanitarian spirit to the extreme.
If he were a resident of "Attilan", he would stand on the side of the Gunslingers Club at this time.
Farewell to Zhang Qiang, Alvin found Stark...
After sending little Morgan in his arms to sleep with his little sister, Alvin told Stark the results of the negotiation with Zhang Qiang.
Stark nodded indifferently after hearing this, and then asked Hawkeye to get him a glass of whiskey. After taking a sip, he said: "'Warhammer' is originally a general-purpose mobile armor, but actually it is nothing to give to them.
As a former arms dealer, I want to tell you that the most profitable products in this field will always be customized enhanced models.
Our current status is not suitable to compete with those small workshops for food...
The armor accessories you work with the dwarves are the most profitable business. "
When Stark was talking, Hawkeye, who was a guest bartender, interjected: "That's right...
I am willing to buy an M1A2 for 500 yuan, and then find a master to help me modify it for 50,000 yuan...
Special barrel, hand-made rifling, custom cheekpiece...
The set of 'warhammers' you wore yesterday are very different from ours. Many soldiers are willing to pay a big price for these. "
Alvin shook his head and sighed with a smile, and said: "I don't understand these things, I just feel that some things cannot be given for nothing.
Listening to what you said, it makes me feel like I don’t even have the idea to make money! "
Stark understood Alvin, he smiled and said: "We accept the first option...
Sell them the 'Warhammer' blueprints at once.
When politicians calculate the budget, the procedures are very complicated...
If we take a commission from each set of Warhammer, maybe they will cut corners to save costs..."
As he spoke, Stark pressed the bracelet and asked Jarvis to calculate the actual cost of producing a set of "Warhammer"...
"$50,000..."
Stark watched Alvin quote a price that was almost unprofitable, and then said: "The two precision machining centers we have here were originally used to produce robots.
Now I can free up one building to produce 'Warhammer'...
Batteries and raw materials can be transported from Earth…
If those people are willing to pay 5 times the price, we can use the Uru metal secondary alloy you store with the dwarves to produce the 'Warhammer'.
Someone is willing to pay an extra $2 million and we can sell them the armor designed by Bazel. "
After hearing this, Alvin nodded in admiration and said, "It looks like you're still making money by being 'high-end'.
Let's just leave it at that, let's go and finalize the price with them..."
As he spoke, Alvin stood up and walked towards the conference room, saying, "What do you think is lacking here?
If the army alone fights against those biochemicals, is it safe? "
Stark smiled and said: "Don't underestimate those people...
The failure of traditional weapons will certainly not limit them!
Otherwise, they should give you money now to stay here and fight, instead of sending people to die...
The area of Nidvinir is very vast, and the dwarves seem to only live underground.
Maybe we have a chance for humans to establish a long-term stronghold here.
The metal deposits here are so rich. If they can establish a cooperative relationship with the dwarves, the development of the earth will be accelerated many times. "
Alvin walked to the door of the conference room, looked at Stark and said with a smile: "I hope that humans can build cities on all living planets in the solar system during my lifetime.
Maybe we should tell those military bosses that their mission should be to lay down a large territory for future generations! "
