Chapter 822: Unacceptable Usage Specifications
Meet in the multi-functional conference hall on the 66th floor, the conference hall has a huge panoramic glass of nearly 180 degrees, sitting here, you can overlook most of the scenery of Zhongyun City.
Fifty representatives from various countries came, and on the side of the giant beast industry, it was composed of Ye Qing, the sales department, and the legal department.
Now in each representative's hand, there is a detailed parameter information of the ghost synthetic fiber armor written in English. The data also lists the service life of the ghost armor, the environment in which it is used, and the various limit test parameters.
"Ghost synthetic fiber armor, made of bio-fiber material. Distinguished delegates, at the press conference in the morning, you have already visited the manufacturing process of ghost armor. I think you've already understood that there's nothing difficult about mass production of Spectre armor. Kong Tao, general manager of the sales department, said: "The ghost armor is suitable for wearing, so it needs to be customized according to the height and weight of each soldier. ”
"Liquid printers, on the other hand, perfectly solve the cumbersome customization process. ”
"You only need to use 3D scanning equipment to scan the contours of the soldiers' bodies. Our industrial liquid printer will automatically print out the ghost armor. ”
It may sound very convenient, but the delegates frowned slightly.
Because from this sentence, they heard at least two bundled products. Industrial liquid printers, and 3D scanning equipment.
"May I ask Mr. Kong, if the ghost armor is printed from liquid materials, what about the metal protective layer we saw earlier?"
"No, the metal guard bone can be manually resized before printing. ”
"We're not just selling ghost armor, we're selling a whole line of ghost armor. ”
"At the same time, the liquid printer, the core of our production line, is not the same as the public version, it is specially customized. Normal industrial liquid printers cannot print Spectre armor. Saying this, Kong Tao showed an elusive smile and asked the employees next to him to send a price list to each representative one by one.
Customized liquid printer, 50 million yuan each.
Integrated scanning equipment for 3D model drawings, 10 million units.
Alloy protective bones, 500,000 one.
Liquid biocellulose material, fifty liters as a unit of weight, each unit costs 30 million.
Three...... Million?
Seeing this price, the delegates almost thought that they were in the country of South Korea. Because the currency settlement ratio is lower there, the price of 30 million and 50 liters seems more acceptable.
But this is Huaxia, and the representatives of various countries looked at each other to make eye contact, and then the British Esigson was a little displeased, and pointed the finger directly at Ye Qing, who didn't speak much, "Mr. Ye, is there a mistake in your company's pricing unit?"
"That's right. Ye Qing smiled faintly, "Technology is priceless, according to every point and five liters of liquid material, you can print a set of ghost armor." The price of each armor set is only two million. It's only two million yuan, but in exchange for the absolute safety of the soldiers. Just imagine that the soldiers are killed or disabled because of the bullets, and the cost of the delegates' countries is definitely more than that. ”
If he could, Mr. Essigson would have jumped up and given the young president a hard kick.
Two million is not too expensive to grit your teeth according to common sense. But the problem is that it is clearly written on the information that the validity period of the ghost armor is only one year, and after one year, the ghost armor will gradually lose its protective ability due to the aging and decomposition of the material.
Two million can buy a piece of high-tech armor that won't fail, that's really not expensive.
But it costs two million a year, which is not called sky-high, and what other products are called sky-high?
"Mr. Ye, do you know how much it costs to equip an American GI?" Amos, the American representative who was mixed with the French ranks, smacked his lips with some surprise, and said in an American English accent: "It only costs $30,000 to fully arm an American GI." It's not that we're disgusted with your price, but the shelf life of the Spectre Armor is too short, and I think if it had a five-year trial, we'd find it acceptable. ”
"No product, just after it is developed, is perfect. Technology is always progressing little by little, and our products are also slowly improving. ”
Ye Qing raised his eyebrows, "This gentleman, you can't compare the equipment on the American GIs to the ghost armor. If you're looking for $30,000 a piece of armor, we've got you covered. ”
"In the future, we will continue to invest in technology to improve bio-fiber materials. I don't think it will take a few years for us to improve on the short-lived short-lived shortness. ”
“……”
"But it's really too expensive. Amos complained unabashedly.
The United States, which has always been rich and civilized, also feels a little unbearable at this moment. Spending two million a year, if you want to arm the entire army at this price, I am afraid that only aliens have the financial resources to do it. Of course, it is perfectly possible to install special forces on a small scale.
But who is willing to be the wrongdoer?
"Ladies and gentlemen~ the price is based on the cost of material production and the investment in research and development, after strict accounting. Kong Tao saw that the representatives of various countries invariably expressed their complaints, and immediately smiled and said: "This representative uses American soldiers as an example, so I will also give an example of an American company." ”
"It's an American biopharmaceutical company, and in 1998, the company officially launched a drug called Avaco. The effect of this drug on men is, I think, no less than that of ghost armor on soldiers. ”
"The price of one pill in Huaxia is 120 yuan, but the manufacturing cost of each grain is only one yuan, and of this yuan, 0.8 yuan is the packaging cost. ”
"Do you think that our ghost armor may be one hundred and twenty times more profitable?"
One hundred and twenty times is naturally no, and the delegates will calculate it in their hearts. If you spend 16,000 yuan to buy a ghost armor, it is indeed fantastic. At this price, even if you buy an internal alloy protective bone, it is enough to choke.
But the price of two million for a year seriously exceeded their psychological expectations.
Ye Qing coughed twice, and the profit of the ghost armor was indeed not one hundred and twenty times, but close to one thousand and five hundred times.
Kong Tao looked serious, "I can guarantee that after we sign a long-term cooperation agreement." The price of raw materials for Ghost Armor will definitely decrease as our technology improves. ”
"But I'd also like to ask the delegates to open the information at the bottom of the quotation form, where we have a specification for the use of raw materials for Spectre armor. ”
"This special liquid biomaterial can be used for more than just the production of Ghost Armor. At the same time, it also has a very wide range of uses in the civilian field. However, we have only done technical tests for ghost armor products, and the application in other fields still needs follow-up technical tests. ”
"Therefore, the somatic biomaterials that you purchase can only be used for the production of ghost armor for the time being. ”
"What do you mean?" Amos looked at the following usage code with a look of disbelief. This kind of expression may have been similar to that of Lao Zhang, a heavy minister of the late Qing Dynasty, when he signed the Xinchou Treaty.
Amos almost flipped the table angrily, not because he was arrogant with the United States standing behind him, but because this usage norm was too bullying.
Look at what is written on it......
Specifications for use:
Article 1: The liquid printer in this production line is different from the ordinary industrial liquid printer in terms of printing technology. Countries can only be used for the production of Ghost Armor, and the accompanying liquid printer is on the driver, and does not support the printing of any products other than Ghost Armor.
Article 2: In view of this type of industrial liquid printer, it is a high-tech sensitive product. When countries use the product, they must be connected to the Internet, and only the digital key sent by the headquarters of Behemoth Industries in real time can work properly.
Article 3: In view of the particularity of liquid biomaterials, every 50 liters of material consumables will be embedded with a key chip inside the container when it leaves the factory. Only the key chip, after mutual authentication with the liquid printer, can pass the key verification of the headquarters.
Based on the order information and the raw material consumption data sent back by the liquid printer, the HQ will determine whether each material consumable piece is used to print the Ghost Armor.
Article 4: If Party B violates the regulations and uses biological materials in other fields. It is necessary to pay the corresponding amount of liquidated damages according to the contract, and cancel the supply of liquid biological materials.
Article 5: Party A's Behemoth Industry has the right to ......
Article 6: ......
Seriousness, anger, irritation, disbelief, glaring, etc., all kinds of negative emotions inevitably appeared on the faces of the delegates of various countries.
Why?
Why did Behemoth have such arrogant confidence that they would approve of the specification?
If it weren't in public, they would have slammed the table and put their arrogant middle finger up in the young president's face.
Facing the angry faces on the oval conference table, Ye Qing slowly straightened his waist, and his smile hid his confidence, "Delegates, please forgive us for customizing these usage specifications that don't come from the heart. ”
"But if you don't do that, I think the liquid biomaterial will probably get stuck at customs, or at the airport of international air express. I think all delegates understand the importance of this material. In other countries, I don't think even if there are more regulations, there is no chance that these materials will end up in China. ”
"Of course, from a business point of view, these norms are not excessive. ”
"Since Manager Kong just gave an example, I will also give a few business examples. ”
For example, DMG, which plays an important role in the field of high-precision machining, exports all of its five-axis machining centers to Huaxia in limited versions. Some of the functions that could be used in the field of military processing have been strictly removed. ”
"For another example, we wanted to buy a freighter before, and we contacted Airbus in Europe, and they told us that we can't make any modifications to buy this kind of freighter. ”
