Chapter 65: Raven No. 3
The sense of crisis and urgency once again invaded Chen Dong's brain, but fortunately, with the company of his family, he was not anxious or decadent this time, but instead stimulated his unyielding will and desire to protect.
To be honest, Chen Dong never believed that there was a savior in this world, and of course he himself was not; But everyone in this world, every ordinary person, can be their own savior, save themselves, save their families, lovers, friends...
With a determined gaze in his eyes, Chen Dong thought to himself: No matter how strong the AI life is, no matter what the future holds? My buddy is also a man who has inherited the legacy of the Waters, so he won't even have the power to fight back!
After making up his mind, Chen Dong began to get busy, every day was to have meetings, meetings, meetings, and even the evening walking project was canceled...
First of all, at a price of 600,000 yuan per year, he rented 30 factories that were connected together, and then he kept buying, buying, buying, and buying β’ Raven now consumes 1.296 billion raw materials every month, and it is not surprising that he is now increasing his purchase efforts to increase reserves.
But the procurement project of [Shadow Island] is incomprehensible, like what metal materials such as alumina, sodium, magnesium, titanium, copper, and rigidity, everyone knows that [Shadow Island] is fully researching composite materials, and it is acceptable to buy these things for experiments... Could it be that [Shadow Island] has researched a new material recipe, and it needs to use a large amount of ore?
And [Jushenfeng] is the same, and began to purchase some raw materials such as polyimide, high-purity hydrogen oxide, photoresist, etc.
And each company has ordered a large number of strange experimental instruments, processing machinery, equipment or something, and everyone can't figure out what Chen Dong wants to do, but he is a big boss! Even if you don't understand it in your heart, you have to pretend to understand, and you must unswervingly implement the leader's intention and do a good job.
If the procurement projects of the above three companies are barely related to their respective professions, others are difficult to understand but can barely accept them.
But what do you mean by buying food? If you buy less, it's just that, not only buy at a high price, but also have no limits, you know, the wheat has just been harvested, it is the time when the grain storage company is busy, do you want to grab a job with others or what?
What's even more unbelievable is that the rice is not ripe yet, so people spread the news of buying rice at a high price... I can't read it at all!
Everyone was stunned by Chen Dong's combination of punches, the key is that the market has disrupted him, and more than 10 billion funds have entered all walks of life, swept away all the items and raw materials that can be legally bought, and raised the prices.
The problem is that Chen Dong's behavior is not a whim, but a long-term plan, he not only spends his own money to buy, but also buys it with a loan from the bank, and keeps buying, who can bear it?
Not only the domestic raw material and grain markets have been affected, but also related industries around the world, as well as stocks, futures, finance and other fields.
Of course, more than 10 billion funds are nothing in the world, and it is impossible to set off a storm, but the impact he has caused is very great, and the bigwigs from all walks of life are thinking about a question: "Why?" Could it be that someone got the news that the price of these things will increase in the future? β
Then, and then many people who don't know the truth join the procurement army, even if they don't buy physical goods, they will hoard futures...
In this case, the day of school is getting closer and closer, and Chen Jianjun's family and Liu Yanan will return to Qinglong County to go to school and work.
I don't know why, Chen Jianjun is reluctant to take [Raven No. 2] back, he always feels that it is not safe to ask the rotorcraft, he is afraid of falling halfway down...
On the same day, Diana and Nalubet passed the inspection of the relevant departments and towed the ship to the location of Wuzhou in the eastern coastal area, which is only more than 100 kilometers away from the coastline, and the high-tech zone is even closer, only about 80 kilometers.
The Nalubet, renamed Raven III, is actually well maintained and fully capable of sailing. The problem is that [Raven No. 3] is not a yacht, and Chen Dong can't find anyone who can drive a boat.
Besides, [Raven III] is also an aircraft carrier, a 174.6-meter-long aircraft carrier, and wants to drive past from someone else's doorstep? That's a lot harder.
Even if it was towed by a tugboat, it was left behind many times along the way, but fortunately, thanks to the official notice, and Diana was indeed very capable and skillful, so [Raven III] was successfully towed back.
As early as a week ago, Diana informed Chen Dong and the Nalubet that they would arrive at the coast of Wuzhou today, and their purpose was naturally to complete the handover and get the final payment as soon as possible.
Not long after the tugboat and the [Raven III] broke anchor, Diana saw several speedboats rushing in the distance... When the speedboats approached, Diana's face became gloomy, and even her newly formed team also changed their faces, and then quickly formed a protective circle around Diana and Ava.
This is because the speedboats that rushed over were all anti-smuggling boats and patrol boats, and a beautiful blonde approached Diana and whispered, "Have we been betrayed?" β
Diana: "Don't worry, we haven't broken the law in Huaxia, and we don't have any contraband on us, even if the surname Chen betrays us, we don't have to be afraid." β
Answer: "But on us..."
Diana interrupted coldly: "Shut up, no. β
A: "Yes." β
Ava showed a complicated expression, opened her mouth to say something, as if she wanted to defend Chen Dong, but in the end she didn't say anything.
After a short time, Chen Dong and a group of uniformed staff climbed up from the suspension ladder to [Raven No. 3], and then used the hanging basket to hang up two drug detection dogs.
Diana separated her companions and walked to the front to stare at Chen Dong and said, "Mr. Chen, what do you mean by this?" β
Chen Dong ignored her, and said to the leaders around him, "It's troublesome." β
Answer: "Mr. Chen is polite, this is what we should do." β
Under the orders of the leader, comrades from the anti-narcotics, anti-smuggling, border defense and other departments launched a detailed search for [Ruiwen No. 3], and in the process, the staff around Chen Dong also took the list of items and began to take inventory.
The items on Raven III are the same as the list.
Only then did Chen Dong put his mind at ease and said to Diana: "I'm sorry, let's go ashore and talk about the rest of the things!" The hotel has been arranged. β
Diana said expressionlessly, "Now don't worry!" Mr. Chen, we are all serious businessmen, and it is impossible for us to carry private goods. β
Chen Dong said noncommittally: "Hope! He turned his head and said, "Leader, is it okay to let them go back together on a boat?" β
A: "No problem, it's all a small matter." β
It turned out that although Chen Dong and Diana had a cooperative relationship and cooperated well, there was no trust between the two of them, and they were all worried that they would be cheated by the other party.
Chen Dong not only has to let people come to check it carefully, but he also has to dismantle the mainframe computer and carrier-based aircraft on the [Raven III] in front of everyone... Even if it is the lowest in the world, [Raven III] is a complete aircraft carrier, even if no one suspects, Chen Dong is still worried about being used.
And Diana is worried that Chen Dong will be arrested by someone, her identity is a little sensitive after all, and she also has her own concerns: one is because the reward of [chess] has not been revoked, and the other is afraid that Chen Dong will take advantage of the fire to rob the balance of [Raven No. 3] and the bounty of [Chess], these two things add up to a lot of money, not to mention that she also carries a lot of valuable things on her, and she has to guard against people!
Of course, this is also because their first impression of each other is particularly poor, and there are many issues such as identity, background, origin, and cultural differences between the East and the West, which are not clear in a few words.
In short, it is difficult, difficult, and difficult for two people to trust each other, even if they cooperate happily, it is only a matter of interest, forced by the situation, and forced to do so.
For this action, Chen Dong used a lot of relationships, you know, Raven company pays hundreds of millions of taxes in the high-tech zone every month, Chen Dong is now not only the taxpayer of the high-tech zone, but also a large taxpayer in Wuzhou, at least in the top ten.
In such a situation, as long as it is a legitimate request, basically no one will refuse; Moreover, Chen Dong also promised to donate 1,000 sets of ultra-thin nano bulletproof suits to the Municipal Bureau of Impermanence.
In fact, it is the [ultra-thin nano bulletproof vest] in the kind of special service three-piece suit that Chen Dong used and is often worn as underwear nowβ’β’β’β’Just a few days ago, [Shadow Island] has just completed all the experiments, and the new ultra-thin nano bulletproof suit can be put into use, but there are still some problems to be solved in mass production.
(Although the staff of [Shadow Island] are not clear, Chen Dong has ready-made experience to draw on, and with the assistance of a supercomputer, it is not surprising that he was able to complete this project in a short period of time.) οΌ
After checking into the hotel, Chen Dong waited in the conference room for a short time, and Diana and her team walked into the conference room, and then, everyone stood together and stared at each other, so embarrassed.
Looking at Diana and more than a dozen exotic beauties, Chen Dong was indeed a little surprised. I don't know where these people came from, not to mention that they are all beautiful women, they look very capable of fighting, especially strong, especially tough...
It may be a little inappropriate to say that it is tough, but this is Chen Dong's true feeling; He thinks that if there is a fight, any woman can easily clean up three or even five of herself, so who is to reason with?
Of course, Chen Dong is just appreciating, appreciating beautiful things, everyone has a love for beauty, perhaps, and a little envy, envy that Diana has so many companions with explosive force value.
No matter how suspicious the other party is, Chen Dong and Diana's cooperation is not bad, at least for now, it is okay β’β’β’β’ As the master, Chen Dong took the lead in breaking the silence and said: "The final payment has been sent to you, have you received it?" β
Diana: "Roger, thank you. He pondered for a moment and said, "In case we really carry private goods, aren't you afraid of being implicated?" β
Chen Dong: "What does it have to do with me?" β
"It really doesn't matter?" After saying that, Diana took out a small black cloth bag and still said on the table, "You dare to say that this has nothing to do with you?" β
Chen Dong picked up the cloth bag and opened it, and it was full of shiny diamonds, and there were no cut broken diamonds. Forget it, don't talk, I don't want to know and I don't need to know. β
Diana almost died of anger, pointed at Chen Dong and said, "You..."
After weighing the scale, Chen Dong said: "According to the original price, it is 180 million, right?" β
Diana said angrily: "No, now the price has risen, 200 million, not a centless will be sold." β
"Yes." After speaking, Chen Dong picked up the phone and began to arrange for someone to pay.
Diana froze, completely unaware of the situation... In fact, what she said was just angry words, as long as Chen Dong bargained with her, she would definitely give in.
However, Chen Dong didn't say a word and arranged for someone to pay... This is 20 million, not 20,000, not 20,000, but 20 million, even if you have money, you shouldn't spend it like this!
Diana became suspicious, and thought to herself: Could it be that I have been floating at sea for too long, and the prices have changed? It shouldn't be!
The so-called scarcity is expensive, Chen Dong now urgently needs a large number of diamonds to build a quantum computer, let alone 20 million, even if it is more money, he is willing to spend... Of course, Chen Dong does not intend to explain, and has no obligation to explain.
After completing the transaction, Chen Dong turned around and left with the cloth bag, not even bothering to say a kind word.
Just as Chen Dong was about to walk to the door, someone behind him said, "Mr. Chen, please wait a moment." β
Chen Dong immediately turned around: "Something?" β
Ava: "Mr. Chen, I wonder if you can sell us a little bit of your nanobot?" We can pay a big price. β
Buying nanobots is the result of Ava and Diana's discussions, no matter what the sequelae, nanobots can save their lives at critical moments; If there had been nanobots on the run, Diana's companions wouldn't have died.
It is said that it is better to die than to live, as long as it is possible, who does not want to live? Crooked nuts are also people, and crooked nuts don't want to die.
Of course, there is a little secret that Chen Dong doesn't know, Chen Dong only knows that [nanobots] have sequelae, but he doesn't know that [nanobots] also have the characteristics of enhancing the human system.
Ava has only recently realized this trait, and although only the presence of [nanobots] has been enhanced, it is already very powerful. If used well, [nanobots] can even change the tide of battle in specific situations, and Diana and Ava naturally hope to have this kind of magical thing in their hands.
Chen Dong pondered for a moment and said, "Let me think about it, is it okay?" β
Ava: "Of course, then, Mr. Chen, can I go back with you for a check-up?" β
Chen Dong: "No problem, do you want to go back with me now, or do you want to go by yourself in two days?" β
Ava: "I'm with you, thank you, Mr. Chen. β
"Well, let's go!" As he spoke, Chen Dong turned around and left.
Diana: "Wait. β
Chen Dong said impatiently: "What's the matter? β
Diana: "Shall we go together?" βγ
Chen Dong: "Whatever, but I can't fit so many people in my car, you can take a taxi yourself!" β
Diana: "Take a taxi, just take a taxi, and the old lady is not out of money." β
