Chapter 42: The Magic Show
Only $50,000?
Is $50,000 a lot?
It takes more than two years for a waiter to go to a restaurant to wash dishes without eating or drinking to save such a sum of money, but it is not much, because the full set of equipment prepared by the US military for recruits to join the army is worth 20,000 US dollars, plus the salaries, accommodation, and welfare payments paid to the recruits, it will cost 70,000 or 80,000 yuan a year.
In addition, a soldier must be paid a pension when he dies, and a retirement pension must be paid if he does not die, and from enlistment to discharge, the US military spends at least hundreds of thousands of dollars on a soldier.
Even so, the dream of young Americans is still Hollywood, Silicon Valley, and Wall Street, not to be a soldier, and he has heard more than one military high-ranking complaint.
Good men don't go to the army, even if they go to receive shameful social assistance, they don't go to the army, this is the status quo of the American army.
If you can recommend a cheap robot that can replace the grassroots soldiers on the battlefield at this time, even if it can only replace some of them, it will be a big business.
Thinking of this, Justin Hammer waved off the security guards who were slowly surrounding him, and showed an eager smile, "What do you want to do to my friends?" …… Come on, sir, ignore them, let's go inside and talk. ”
Justin Hammer led the strange man to the conference room, then poured him a glass of wine and handed it over, "The red wine produced in the estate of Basel, France, is of top quality, and is sold in limited quantities, I only have a dozen bottles here, and it is usually only opened when entertaining the military high-ranking people." ”
"Wow, looks like I've got a good deal today." The weirdo, that is, Lu Yu, picked up the wine glass and took a sip, well, it seems to be very delicious, worthy of the top red wine.
He smashed, smashed, and thought to his mouth, so that he would not tell the fact that he had not tasted any difference in taste between this bottle of wine and the dozen yuan a bottle of red wine he had drunk before.
"Are there any drawings for the Terminator T-600?" After speaking, Justin Hammer was afraid that the stranger would misunderstand, and quickly added, "It's not that I don't trust you, and I don't want to steal your information, I just want an expert to identify the drawings and sign your name." ”
"You know, the directors on the board of directors of Hammer Industries don't know any technology, they only believe the rhetoric of the experts, and to convince them to approve my investment proposal, they have to get the experts to write their names on the information."
"Aren't you the chairman of Hammer Industries?"
Lu Yu looked at Justin Hammer, and an exaggerated clown smile pulled out of Loki's mask, and the latter smiled awkwardly, "Although I am the chairman of Hammer Industries, I still have to get the authorization of the board of directors for a big business like this." ”
That's what he said, but in fact, his real thoughts in his heart are like this: If you don't show me the drawings, how do I know that your technology is mature, in case you are a liar.
There are not many liars in this world who dare to deceive them capitalists, but all of them are elites.
You don't see those scientists, in order to cheat some funds, first blow their research projects into the sky, the money is invincible, and then they have encountered a little difficulty and need help, and when you are moved, you find that this is a huge pit.
"Yes." Of course, Lu Yu knew that Justin Hammer's mouth was false to convince the board of directors with information, and that it was true to convince him that he was true, but why did he expose him, didn't the air suddenly quiet after exposing it?
As the saying goes, I am most afraid of the sudden silence of the air, and I am most afraid of the sudden concern of my friends, either borrowing money or being green...... Okay, okay, let's go far.
He pulled out a large pile of documents from his pocket, stacking them half the height of an adult.
Justin Hammer was dumbfounded, "How did you put so much paper in your pocket?" ”
"Do you mean that?" Lu Yu naturally put the bottle of top red wine he put on the table, which was claimed to be from the Manor de Basel, France, into his pocket, and took it out and put it on the table, "It's quite simple." ”
"Oh, awesome, great, this magic is just amazing, it's like magic, it's amazing, you may not know that I've loved magic since I was a kid, David is my idol, and now I've got one more idol to my idol." Justin Hammer clapped his hands, his voice of admiration matched with that surprised look, as if he had really become an admirer of Lu Yu all of a sudden.
Lu Yu took a sip of wine and showed a mysterious smile, "Do you still want to watch the show?" ”
"Is that okay?" Justin Ham silently feigned surprise.
"But it takes props."
"What props?"
"You can use any prop, but it's better to be expensive."
An hour later, the table was filled with white gold watches, diamond rings, gold necklaces, jade bracelets, fine red wine, white wine, and stacks of dollar bills.
Justin Hammer looked at the items on the table, his face full of exclamation, "Wow, sir, your performance is really eye-opening, I think if you were to be a magician, I guess there would be nothing to do with David." ”
Lu Yu sat there, hearing Justin Hammer's admiration, and a smile of mystery appeared on his face again.
At this time, the experts invited by Justin Hammer finally arrived.
Looking at them, Justin Hammer smiled.
These people were all invited by him with a lot of money, although they are not as good as a demonic scientist like Tony Stark, and they can't create black technology, but it is still possible to identify the drawings, and with their identification, he can determine whether the drawings are true or fake.
"Justin Hammer, do you want to see a magic show?" Lu Yu looked at Justin Hammer, his eyes full of anticipation from the big dog eater tonight.
"Ah...... After all, the experts are still reading the materials, and it will disturb them if we perform magic tricks here...... For intellectuals, I think we still need to give enough respect. Justin Hammer shook his head, and he said this with respect on his face, as if he really respected intellectuals.
In fact, the real situation is because he thinks that this weirdo's magic tricks are really boring.
Yes, stuffing something into a hole that doesn't fit its size is a shocking performance, but when it is repeated dozens of times, he gets bored.
I still have to pretend to be a look, you're so good, wow, I'm so surprised, it's really tiring.
Two hours later, the experts finished checking the drawings.
"The drawings are real."
"The technology on it is amazing."
"I think we should buy the drawings."
Hearing the experts' answers, Justin Hammer showed his brightest smile so far, "So, how about we talk about cooperation?" ”
