Chapter 283: Can You Regret It?
A huge check for fifteen million dollars and made payable to Peter Parker. Seriously, the little spider has never seen so much money in his life. I didn't think I would have such a big fortune.
He researched [Parker Particles] in the Horizon Foundation, and each experiment cost tens of millions of dollars. It may easily burn Tony's tens of millions of dollars in a month.
But that kind of cost is not something that can be experienced personally, most of the time Peter will prescribe a list of materials he needs, and then Peppard will arrange someone to buy them.
There were things Peter knew were expensive, but because they weren't taking money out of his own pocket. He didn't have a personal experience.
But when he actually got the check for fifteen million dollars, his hands couldn't help but tremble. Because what Li Jie just said is obvious.
It's not some experimental funding or some public use of money or something. Rather, the wealth given to Peter Parker for his personal use was given to Peter.
What can you do with fifteen million dollars? You can buy all the games on Steam (without discounts). Then buy all of Sony's and Microsoft's game consoles, including somatosensory suits and games.
Then buy a big apartment and decorate a dedicated gaming room. Then put all the consoles and games in it. Then buy a large refrigerator stocked with cola, chips, chocolates, pizza, burgers, fries, and other semi-finished foods that are easy to heat.
By the way, buy a long cat pillow and a lazy sofa. In this way, you can stay happily for a long time!
If you get tired of the game, you can also buy all kinds of Lego and come back and assemble it to play. For example, the Spider-Man hero suit series or something.
In an instant, Peter Parker seemed to be able to transform into a god-boy Pa.
While Peter was thinking about it, Gwen repeatedly checked the authenticity of the check and asked Lee, "So the question is, who gave Peter such a large sum of money, and where did he come from?"
This is something that must be asked, although Lee Kit and Peter have always been good friends. Gwen also believed that Li Jie would not harm Peter, but this was fifteen million dollars! And Li Jie said that there might be a large amount of money income of more than 100 million dollars in the future.
How can Peter Parker take so much money? If you sell the lifetime rights of Spider-Man at once, you won't get that much! Look at Hawkeye, who sold out all the rights for ten years and only got a million dollars.
Spider-Man's copyright is 300 million a year, which is the money that an Hawkeye can earn by working for 3,000 years, or 300 Hawkeyes working for 10 years.
Now the most valuable hero endorsement is Captain Rogers, and the king of the surrounding circle of money is Iron Man. In any case, it is not Spider-Man's turn to take so much money.
So it's normal for Gwen to have such doubts. Peter also came back to his senses from the fantasy of his brother Xiaopa, he also looked at Li Jie and said, "Don't tell me, you need me to help you rob a bank or something." I'm not going to do that. ”
Peter's tone was joking, but he was really a little afraid of where the money came from.
Facing this couple who were a little overwhelmed, Li Jie spread his hands and said, "Robbing a bank? Whether it is drug trafficking, bank robbery, or arms sales, the profits of these businesses are simply weak compared to what we will do in the future. ”
Peter and Gwen: "Huh?"
Peter was a little worried and asked, "Are you really going to make me do sinful things?"
Li Jie pointed to the letterhead on the check: "Open your dog's eyes and see who is the person who issued the invoice on the letterhead." ”
It was then that Peter and Gwen suddenly remembered that the cheque was made payable to the person who issued the invoice. This check was drawn by Sugon Technology Co., Ltd.
"Is Dawning the company that specializes in cosmetics under Tony?" asked Gwen with some curiosity.
"That's right, it's the company. Specializing in hair growth lotion and skin lotion. Now it also extends its tentacles to whitening products and orthodontic teeth. Li Jie nodded and said, "Shuguang Technology Co., Ltd. is now the most profitable industry under Tony. ”
"In terms of the company's social impact and importance to the world, Sugon Technology is far inferior to Stark. But in terms of the speed of making money and the explosive profit margin, the money made by Sugon Technology can already make no one dare to underestimate it. ”
Li Jie pointed at Peter: "Do you know what is the most unprofitable investment in the world, but you have to make?"
Peter thought for a moment, then shook his head.
"It's munitions. Li Jie said the answer: "All countries are working on all kinds of advanced weapons, but all people in their right minds don't want these advanced weapons to be really used one day." The meaning of their existence is more of a deterrent. Because the cost of using them is too great. ”
Li Jie pointed at Gwen again, and at the same time patted Lan's hand and said, "What do you think is the most beneficial investment for individuals?"
Lan replied without thinking, "Knowledge." ”
Originally, Gwen wanted to say this, but Arashi preempted her, and she could only say, "And appearance, well, like I'm a very shallow woman." ”
Li Jie responded with a smile: "We probably can't give knowledge to others, but things like appearance can." That's why there are so many cosmetic surgery hospitals and all kinds of makeup products in this world. That's what Sugon Technology did. ”
Tony bluntly said that the company was more profitable than drug trafficking, and it was completely legal and unburdened. I think Gwen, you're also using Dawning products, right? "Li Jie is not wrong, in fact, Gwen and Lan are both users of Shuguang Technology's products.
And they give thirty-two likes to the products produced by Shuguang Technology, which is much stronger than the various beauty products produced by other companies, and it is not a grade at all.
And then Peter interjected, "But what does this have to do with me? I don't study cosmetics. Why is Tony giving me so much money?"
"Actually, he really wasn't going to give you that much money. Li Jie shrugged and said, "Because he is planning and designing a new project, and this project is related to mutants." His research will use the Parker particle you're working on. ”
"He really wasn't going to pay at first. Because you don't know anyway. What Li Jie said made Gwen curse in a low voice, but Li Jie didn't hear what she was scolding.
"But I have a good relationship with mutants. So I know something. Li Jie pointed out the door, the female mutant president Katie had just left.
"When I found out about it, I approached Tony to theorize. In the end, I helped you get a more appropriate royalty. And that's part of the royalties. The rest will not be given to you until the product is mass-marketed. Li Jie said that he couldn't help laughing.
"But I think you've already figured out how to use your money, don't you? Need help you find a suitable fund manager to run this community chest?"
Peter opened his mouth, and he wanted to say: a little less will work. But how could you take back what she had just said, especially with the adoring look Gwen had just looked at her.
Li Jie explained the origin of the money clearly. Peter and Gwen kind of got it all figured out.
Only Gwen asked curiously: "Does this mean that Shuguang Technology is going to release a new product?"
Li Jie touched his chin: "It doesn't have to be issued by Dawning Technology, but it does have something to do with Dawning." This matter is currently under top secret, so you'd better not tell it. This is a trade secret. ”
Gwen nodded in understanding, and then asked in a gossipy manner, "Can you tell me what the new product is?"
Li Jie replied: "It is probably an epoch-making product that can profoundly change the world." Not a single product, but an entire collection, which is named "x Beauty Rebirth Project". ”
