Chapter 1315 5 Trillion Votes
"5 trillion?" Acting Speaker Lemo was shocked: "Congressman Su Yu, are you sure you're not joking?"
"Of course it's not a joke." Su Yu replied seriously: "A year and a half ago, I auctioned the corpse of a planet-level dragon at the hub, and the price was over 500 billion.
What is being sold this time is a level 4 AI. Its rarity is not comparable to that of a planet-level dragon. A 10-fold price increase is not too much, right? "
"Not too much? Why not too much? The price is too high!" Acting Speaker Lemo still refused to accept it.
There is one thing to say, even he himself may not be able to directly come up with 5 trillion holy silver coins.
Of course, his total assets must exceed this amount. After all, the major forces in the hub have expanded in the past two years, and he has gathered a lot of wealth.
But if he is asked to come up with 5 trillion in liquidity at once, he will definitely not be able to do it.
5 trillion is a lot of money for a stellar being like him, let alone other people.
However, Su Yu did not let go.
He turned to face the planet-level councilors in the audience and said seriously: "Everyone, I quoted this price for two reasons:
First, level 4 AI does not yet exist in the Holy Silver Federation.
Today, the Federation’s self-made AI does not exceed two levels, and it is still not known how many years it will take before technological advancements in major hubs can generally produce level 4 AIs.
With Level 4 AI, we can quickly control and integrate the entire hub, which is of great help and allows us to be at the forefront of all hubs;
Second, the structure of the AI Blue Whale is exactly the same as that of the Anthem, and it can be quickly and perfectly integrated into the Anthem Tower..."
At this point, Su Yu was startled.
Then he turned back to look at Acting Speaker Lemo and Legion Darando, who were sitting at ease: "Both of you, the fact that they have the same configuration actually proves that the AI Blue Whale is a creature of Anthem.
If the AI blue whale was really created by a rebel organization, wouldn't you think it was scary? "
"..."
"..."
"..."
Acting Speaker Lemo, Legion Dalando, and the planet-level councilors in the audience all stopped talking.
The commander of the Darlando Army was also very embarrassed.
Indeed, he had not considered this just now.
Su Yu was right. If the AI Blue Whale was really created by the rebel organization and could perfectly and unobtrusively integrate with the Psalm Tower, then there would be big trouble!
If this is the case, the rebel organization can mass-produce AIs similar to Blue Whales, and then send people to spread them throughout the galaxy and implant them in the hymn towers in major hubs.
By then, the rebel organization will complete the monitoring of all hubs without their knowledge, and every move of all hubs will be exposed to the eyes of the rebel organization, or in other words, to the eyes of the Crystal Blue Community.
At that time, the major hubs are estimated to be not far from destruction!
"...It seems that I really thought wrong." Darlando thought to himself: "So, the AI Blue Whale should not be a creation of the rebel organization. It seems that I am too paranoid."
…
Acting Speaker Lemo on the side also quickly thought about this. It seems that they are indeed overly suspicious.
However, he still found it difficult to accept the price of AI Blue Whale.
"Congressman Su Yu, I very much agree with you. If the AI Blue Whale comes from the rebel organization and can be easily integrated into the Chant Tower, then the rebel organization will definitely not let the AI Blue Whale be exposed to us. But... for Is your quote still too high?”
"I don't think it's high." Su Yu shook his head: "If you really don't want to pay this price, then I can sell the AI Blue Whale to other hubs.
5 trillion holy silver coins, I believe the top hub planets can afford it. "
He looked around at the planet-level councilors in the audience and said: "I just came to Feige Hub not long ago. It is precisely because my hometown is in the jurisdiction of Feige Hub that I have a certain sense of belonging here, so I give priority to it." Sell AI Blue Whale here.”
He looked back at Acting Speaker Lemo: "If I change my mind and want to auction the AI Blue Whale among all hubs, the price will be very high when the bidding is open!"
"..." Acting Speaker Lemo did not speak.
He couldn't help but recall the auction held by Su Yu a year and a half ago.
At that time, the body of the Dark Thunder Dragon, which had a market price of about 400 billion holy silver coins, was forcibly raised to 550 billion before it was finally sold.
Level 4 AI is obviously more rare and useful, and it can generate huge benefits no matter which hub is obtained.
When the auction is really open, I don’t know what kind of sky-high price it will fetch!
"Governor Andrew, what do you think?" Acting Speaker Lemo asked Central Bank Governor Andrew Solon: "If we buy the AI Blue Whale for 5 trillion, the actual value created by the Blue Whale can make up for the 5 trillion yuan. Trillions?"
Andrew Soren is now not only the governor of the central bank, but also the central finance minister, who has the most say in fiscal expenditures.
He had been calculating silently just now, and now he immediately replied: "The revenue created can definitely be greater than 5 trillion. In terms of public security management, information exchange, and material circulation, the cost can be recovered in less than a year... But AI can eventually create I don’t know how much it will bring, because it’s too complicated.”
"Then... okay." Acting Speaker Lemo breathed out: "In this case, the decision-making power is still left to the parliament. We will now conduct a round of voting on the price of the '5 trillion holy silver coins'.
If the number of votes exceeds 50%, we will buy the AI Blue Whale at this price, if the number of votes is less than 50%..."
He looked at Su Yu: "I hope both sides can compromise and give up part of the price, and finally reach an agreement."
"Okay." Su Yu did not refuse.
...
Soon, the second round of voting began, and the voting panel appeared in front of each member.
Of course, this does not include Su Yu. Su Yu has no vote in this issue.
But Su Yu is not doing nothing.
He said to everyone seriously: "Everyone, this price is the price after the inspection is correct and it is confirmed that Blue Whale does not belong to the rebel organization. If there is a problem with Blue Whale after the inspection, you don't have to pay a penny. Please consider it carefully."
