Messerschmitt waited for a day, and finally waited for Philip to come back, his face was full of anxiety, and before Philip could sit down, Messerschmidt grabbed his sleeve and asked impatiently: "Philip, how is it, is it done?" ”

Seeing this, Philip half-jokingly said, "Dr. Wiley, my leg is about to break after a day of running, can you just let me rest for a while?" ”

Messerschmidt realized that he had lost his temper, and hurriedly let go of the hand that was clutching Philip's sleeve, frustrated his hand in embarrassment, and then picked up the kettle and poured Philip a cup of hot water.

Philip picked up the cup and poured a sip of water, then said unhurriedly, "Dr. Wiley, guess how much loan I got today?" ”

Messerschmidt frowned, then stretched out two fingers and said eagerly: "Two million crowns? ”

Philip shook his head, still silent.

"Three million crowns?" Messerschmitt continued to guess.

Philip held out two fingers and said, "Two million dollars, or eight million crowns." ”

"That's great!" Listening to Philip's words, Messerschmidt's eyes couldn't help but light up: "In this way, we have raised a total of 3.5 million US dollars, accounting for 70 percent of the research and development costs, and now we are only 1.5 million US dollars." ”

Philip nodded and said, "Not bad! Let's go to Mr. Carl tomorrow to discuss cooperation, what do you think? ”

Messerschmidt shook his head and said, "No, let's get this done tonight, or I won't be able to sleep." You call Carl right away and ask him to come to the hotel, and we'll talk over dinner. ”

Philip hurriedly dialed Carl's office phone number, fortunately, it was now five o'clock in the afternoon, Carl's female secretary answered the phone, and after explaining his identity, Philip and Carl talked.

Philip smiled and said, "Mr. Karl, how are you doing?" I've got a big surprise for you today, and guess what? ”

Carl said in confusion on the phone: "Surprise? Dear Philip, you've surprised me enough, why is there anything good this time? Let me guess! By the way, is there a big list of several aluminum alloys we cooperate? ”

Philip pretended to be mysterious and said, "No! Even better than that. Guess again! ”

Karl muttered, "Philip, this is really hard to guess! You see, our assault rifles are selling very well now, and the orders are scheduled for two years; In addition, the sales of aluminum alloy are also good, and many aircraft factories have come to us to order; It's just that the development of the Vulcan cannon is still progressing very slowly. You wouldn't mean that there was an order for the Vulcan Cannon, would you? ”

Philip changed his mysterious tone and said seriously: "Okay, Mr. Karl, I won't sell it anymore, now I have a very good investment project, would you like to come?" I can't tell you on the phone, so you can deign to come to Room 502 of the Peninsula Holiday Inn, where Mr. Messerschmidt and I will be waiting for you. What do you think? ”

Karl was surprised on the phone: "Investment projects? Ok, good, good! Then I have to come right away, this project must be very profitable, right? ”

Philip laughed and said, "You'll know when you come." We'll see you there! ”

When Philip hung up the phone, Messerschmidt nervously asked, "How is it, Karl agreed to come over?" ”

Philip nodded and said, "Yes." Carl is a shrewd businessman, how could he possibly let go of an opportunity to make money. ”

Messerschmidt breathed a sigh of relief and said slowly: "That's good! I'm afraid that if he doesn't come, then we don't know where to find the $1.5 million research and development cost. ”

An hour later, there was a knock on the door of room 502, and Messerschmidt ran to the door and opened it.

Standing outside the door were Carl and his female secretary

Messerschmidt happily stretched out his hands, clasped them with Karl's, and laughed: "Mr. Karl, you have finally arrived!" Please come in, let's eat and talk, I've already ordered dinner. With that, he let the two of them into the room.

Seeing Carl, Philip also greeted him happily, shook hands with Carl warmly, and said happily: "Mr. Carl, you are still coming so fast!" Do you see a lot of dollars dangling in front of you? ”

Karl frowned and said loudly: "Philip, look at what you said!" Am I, Carl, just a copper-smelling merchant? If it weren't for Philip's summons, I wouldn't have come in a hurry. ”

Philip laughed and said, "Alright, Mr. Karl, I'm kidding you!" Our friendship lasts forever, hahaha! ”

After the four of them sat down separately, Messerschmidt said excitedly: "I invite Mr. Karl here today, because there is a special investment project that I would like to invite Mr. Karl to participate in, and the return on investment of this project is absolutely satisfactory to you!" ”

Carl said curiously, "Oh, Philip has been selling Guanzi just now, and I'm also very curious about what project makes the two of you so excited. ”

Messerschmidt smiled and pushed the overall design of the wind and thunder jet engine made by Philip in front of Carl, and said with a smile: "Please take a look at this, Mr. Carl!" I believe that Mr. Karl is also a knowledgeable person. ”

Carl hurriedly picked up the pages of paper full of words and numbers, and looked at them carefully, only to see that his expression became more and more surprised, and finally his mouth was so wide that he could almost swallow an egg. Karl's eyes widened and he asked eagerly, "Can this jet engine really be built?" ”

Philip nodded, "That's right! Mr. Carr, our Thunderbolt program, the jet engine is just one of them, as soon as this engine comes out, it will change the pattern of the entire aviation industry! The advent of the jet age will not only change the mode of air combat, but also give birth to many weapons, and it is not easy to master the technology of jet engine manufacturing. So you don't have to worry, someone else can copy it, maybe an assault rifle can, but a jet engine will definitely only have what we can make in ten years. ”

Carl slapped the paper on the table and said loudly, "Philip, why didn't you tell me sooner!" Such a good project, how can I Carl let it go! Tell me, how much does this research and development project need to invest? Is 1 million kroner enough? ”

Messerschmidt laughed when he heard this: "Mr. Karl, it turns out that you, like me, underestimate this jet engine!" A million crowns is not even a fraction of that! ”

Carl stood up in surprise with a look of disbelief: "What? A million crowns is not enough? That's not a small amount! That's enough to buy a dozen planes, right? It's not even a fraction, so how much does it cost? ”

Messerschmidt smiled, turned to Philip and said, "Philip, you should talk carefully about Mr. Karl." ”
