Chapter 126: Base Meeting

Eve Star, Citigroup Base.

There is a huge glass ball in the pentagonal building, and all kinds of plants are planted in the glass ball, and there are all kinds of plants in the tropical, subtropical, and temperate zones on the earth, as well as all kinds of small animals.

The glass ball is divided into four layers, and on each floor there are about 100 people, who are dressed like Citi people on the earth.

Because they are Citi people.

This is the center of the Citigroup base, and these people are the pioneers of Citigroup's entry into Eve.

"Dr. Smith, here's a video of the Scavengers fighting the Thunderbringers. A young female assistant handed Dr. Smith the crystal tablet.

Dr. Smith was a lady, in her early fifties, with a dignified appearance and conservative dress, typical of a female doctor from Citi.

"Thank you. Dr. Smith took the tablet and looked at the footage from the video carefully.

At first, she was just curious to look at it casually, trying to confirm whether the rumors were true.

The video plays slowly, and from the moment the Thunderbringer kicks the scavenger, everything is a normal quarrel.

Dr. Smith made a cup of coffee, the spoon in his hand turning slightly.

Suddenly her hand froze, and the spoon in her hand could no longer be turned, as if the coffee in the cup had solidified.

The mechs in the Scavenger series are from her first design work, and she treasures every part and performance of the Scavenger series.

Its strengths, its weaknesses, she knows better than anyone else.

What's more, the Thunder series was also completed under her guidance, and is considered to be the most outstanding and mature mecha, with countless brilliant records and indescribable advantages.

And this video completely subverted her understanding of mechas!

"Shirley, help me check, who is the user of this scavenger?"

"Yes. The assistant named Shirley immediately turned on the computer, searched with internal data, and said, "According to the bank account opening information, the user of the scavenger is named Ye Bei. “

"Check this person's file. “

Ye, gender: male, place of birth: Jingzhou, Handong Province, China, age: 20, currently studying at Shenhu University. “

"What a boy out of a hero!," Dr. Smith lamented, "he told me when he went online." “

"Yes, Doctor. “

At this point, the base alarm sounds.

Dr. Smith frowned.

The assistant immediately packed up Dr. Smith's belongings,

Everyone trotted into the conference room.

"All the personnel are here, and now an emergency meeting is called! “

"Okay, without further ado, let's get straight to the point. The speaker's expression was a little serious, and the pace of his speech was faster than before, "This time the discussion is not about security, but about the economy, Eve's economy is facing collapse, and we need a complete set of plans to make adjustments as soon as possible." “

"Economic collapse?" the crowd was puzzled.

"As we all know, although the price of Eve Star is a bit high, it has formed its own economic circulation system, and the money earned by private mecha mining and its maintenance costs can be basically equal, and maintain a slight profit, this virtuous circle can not only stimulate the enthusiasm of private mechas, but also ensure our steady development. “

"But now that balance has been completely broken, someone has mined a lot of ore in a short period of time, and we have spent nearly 100 billion dollars in that day's time, which accounts for a third of our entire base operating expenses, and if this continues, we will have major financial problems. “

"What's worse is that if this money is used on the planet, it will inevitably hit Citigroup's financial markets, and if it leads to financial disruption, the consequences will be unimaginable, and the government will most likely stop supporting us. “

"Speaker, do you know who did it?" someone asked.

"It is a young man named Ye Bei, a Chinese national, and his family background is unknown. The secretary in charge of finance replied.

The speaker waved his hand and said: "There is no need to investigate who did it, I believe he is not malicious, our parliament believes that this is just the impact of technological innovation on the old economic form, the ore they provide today is enough for us to use for five years, and even provides an extremely rare fine gold ore, which is the ore we have been looking for for a long time, but I didn't expect it to come eight tons at once, and I didn't even dare to think about it before." “

"I understand what the Speaker means, and what we're going to talk about today is how to reprice ore as a way to restructure a new economic circularity. A Ph.D. in economics said.

"To put it bluntly, it's to reduce the price of those ores and make us pay less. Dr. Lu of the Engineering Department said.

Both doctors were right. The speaker nodded, "To be exact, on the basis of price reduction, we must draw up a plan as soon as possible, because they will soon go to mining again, and if they bring back another cart of pure gold mines, our finances will be emptied." “

Hearing this, everyone whispered.

After a long time, the Financial Secretary spoke: "I propose to discount the price of pure gold ore, which is 10%. “

"Is there any rationale?" the Speaker asked.

"Rationale?" the Financial Secretary was stunned, "No, I rely on my own experience and intuition. “

"Director, you are a postdoctoral fellow, how did you learn to pat your head to decide things?

"This ......," the Financial Secretary was momentarily speechless.

Everyone looked at each other, and no one dared to speak for a while.

Dr. Smith opened his notebook, exported data on all of Eve's economic transactions, and quickly built functions to reprice each ore.

At this time, the speaker slapped the table and said: "Forget it, 10% is 10%, try it first, if it doesn't work, then adjust, financial secretary, you will immediately draw up a notice and publicize the price." “

"......" Everyone was stunned, looked at each other again, and no one spoke.

The Financial Secretary was stunned for a moment, and immediately came back to his senses, "Yes, Speaker." “

Dr. Smith deleted the functions and data, and silently closed the notebook.

"Speaker, the price of ore has dropped, and the price and maintenance cost of the mecha must be reduced in the same proportion, otherwise the private mecha will not be able to make ends meet. The director said.

"If you think about it comprehensively, then it will decline in proportion. The Speaker nodded.

……

The base whistled again, and the system informed all mechs that they could go out to work normally.

Two hours later.

Phillips drove a large mining cart, carrying more than a hundred mechs, and returned to the ore acquisition center singing.

This time they were also fully loaded, half a carload of ore, half a carload of solid ice crystals.

Solid ice crystals are mainly composed of radioactive hydrogen, which is a very efficient energy source that is twice as expensive as white germanium.

"Rich, rich!" everyone thought.

"Another 100 million, in a few days, the cost of the mecha will be recovered, back to the earth I want to open a ten-bottle eighty-two years of Rafite to calm the excited heart. “

"I'm not interested in foreign wine, I want the most beautiful female stars, ten, in a row. “

"To buy a house, I want to buy the most expensive house in Shanghai, haha!"

"The largest villa in the Shenzhou Mansion you said, that's mine, don't rob me!"

……

The crowd was bustling and noisy, and the soul seemed to fly out of the clouds, and this was indeed the case.

What are you pretending
