Chapter 340: The Popularity of Pokemon (2-in-1 Chapter)

"Hello, and welcome to Trish. Today we are not going to talk about the large-scale renovation of Hell's Kitchen, after all, the results of this event are sure that the residents have already said enough. Let's talk about the mechanical pets that have taken New York by storm in recent times. This cute little guy is produced by Tinder, and it has only appeared once at the Stark Industrial Technology Expo, and it has already made countless people fall in love with ......"

"This is a fairly well-listened to radio program, and the host, Tracy, has always commented on current affairs in an unbiased manner, which can be regarded as one of the rare programs in the United States that does not rely on feminist and racial topics to attract listeners."

Some time ago, when Tindersource withdrew from the mechanical pet product, someone recommended advertising on this show. Because the audience of this program covers a wide range of audiences, it is particularly easy to cause a wide range of discussions.

It's just that the host didn't pay attention to the zero on the advertising fee and insisted on seeing this product for himself. In this capitalist country, it is indeed rare to have such a person who adheres to his principles.

Then, Violet came to the door with a few mechanical pets and had an in-depth exchange with the Trish host. As a result, Tracy has three more fluffy, bleeding mechanical pets in the house.

Probably not many women can accept this super clingy and super well-behaved cute pet.

However, the fire of this mechanical pet still has to start with the Stark Industrial Technology Expo. As early as World War II, Stark Industries was already a leading high-tech enterprise in the United States.

Tony's father, Howard, held a tech expo that attracted the world's attention and brought countless investments to Stark Industries.

Now that Tony's new energy technology has matured, he plans to hold it again. There are not only products belonging to Stark Industries, but also products from major companies in the world. Norman Osborne's Green Goblin armor and Green Goblin skateboard brought him a lot of investment.

As for Tinder, their main product is a smart robot for the home, which can easily complete all the housework for you. This kind of robot has been given away for free in the disabled before, so it has also attracted the favor of many investors.

As for the popularity of mechanical pets, it was a complete accident.

The design from Pokemon is nothing more than a toy for the little ones to use as a pastime, and to collect data on the use of the energy matrix for Belcher.

Originally, Rorschach didn't plan to take out this product for exhibition, but Violet, who participated in the exhibition, brought Bikachu with him.

This completely two-dimensional British beauty appeared at this rigid style science and technology exhibition, which naturally attracted the attention of many people, and the budding yellow rabbit beside her naturally attracted the attention of countless people.

At first, everyone just regarded it as an ornament, just like a cosplay girl's own props. It wasn't until one of the rather obscene guys approached Violet with his face licked his face and reached out to pull the girl that the girl slapped the person without hesitation.

Justin Hammer didn't expect his money offensive to be deflated here.

In this expo, Justin Hammer was completely compared to Stark and Osborne because his products were not good. The front of Hammer's pavilion can be described as a door, and even the Tindersource company's pavilion is not as popular.

With this depressed mood, Justin Hammer is left to hunt Yan to save his self-confidence a little.

Originally, I thought it was a girl who came to the expo to play cosplay, and this kind of woman can easily cheat into bed as long as she gives money.

Who knows, this time I met someone who doesn't love money.

The slap was so loud that it made Justin Hammer's face swollen in front of everyone's eyes.

In a fit of rage, Justin Hammer cried out, "Quick, get this woman for me, she dares to beat me!" I'm going to let her go to jail for more than ten years! ”

Naturally, it won't be the police, but Justin Hammer's own bodyguards.

A dozen big men surrounded Violet, and at the same time cut off the idea of being a hero from the crowd of onlookers. After all, it's all ordinary people here, not the kind of superheroes who can single-handedly take on a group of aliens.

I thought that more than a dozen big men should catch a young girl, but who expected that a series of screams would sound. One by one, Justin Hammer's security guards were flown out of the encirclement.

In a few moments, half of these highly trained security guards were gone.

At this time, everyone saw clearly that the cute cute thing next to Violet was letting out a whining and low roar. The little guy who was still bleeding had hair standing on end all over his body, like a cat guarding cubs.

Just now, those security guards were pushed out by Bikachu's collision skills again and again. It wasn't until half of the encirclement was missing that everyone could see the situation inside.

The next situation is very simple, how can ordinary people be the opponent of Tinder's precision technology products. Violet didn't even let Bikachu use the shock ability, just pure brute force was enough to make these bodyguards all fall.

Amazement and cheers rang out, and applause was given to the little treasure of the Lord.

No one cared about Justin Hammer running away, and everyone gathered around Violet to ask questions about what kind of pet it was. After learning that this is a mechanical pet produced by Tinder, everyone can't wait to get one.

The well-behaved Bika machine was seen by them before, and now they find that they still have the ability to protect their masters, which is definitely better than having a dozen bodyguards around them.

The incident was also recorded by a reporter covering the science and technology exhibition, and when the video news was posted on the Internet, it instantly turned the Bikachu into an Internet celebrity.

A well-behaved mechanical pet that can protect the owner, with a cute appearance, and an IQ comparable to that of seven or eight children. You don't need to eat, drink, or even recharge, you won't make a mess of your home like Erha, and you don't have to worry about any diseases they will contract......

With so many benefits, it's simply the perfect pet.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Rorschach simply transformed the Tindersource company's pavilion into a Pokemon fighting arena.

The children, who had already adopted mechanical pets, appeared in high spirits, and they showed a different visual enjoyment to all the audience with their mechanical pets.

Only then did the audience discover that this thing was not just a pet, but also had such a cool and powerful combat ability. Although the terrifying effect of the skill scared many people, many more people were crazy to buy this mechanical pet.

In China, you may have more concerns about security, but this is a country that does not ban guns. With the frequent occurrence of shootings, people in this country attach great importance to their own military guarantees.

The video of the Bhikachu Guardian was played repeatedly, making countless people forget about the possible threat and only remember that this pet can protect itself.

Seeing that the time was ripe, Rorschach simply tried to sell the first batch of mechanical pets. Within a day of being on the shelves, 500 mechanical pets with a unit price of more than $1 million were sold out. Among them, the same style of Bikachu is the most popular, and there are even special second-hand speculation websites.

"One million pet toys are sold out so quickly, there are really many rich people in this country." Rorschach said with emotion.

"For those rich second generations who have money, a mere one million is not as good as the price of a luxury car. Host, the price is set too low. Sarah complained a little.

"What, losing money?" Rorschach asked.

"This ...... Not really. The production cost is not high, but the fire source technology is monopolistic, and we can set a higher price. Sarah said.

Why is the price of high-tech products particularly high, far more than ten times higher than the cost of production? Because the largest R&D cost is here, it is necessary to rely on product sales to make up for this part of the expenditure, which is also the characteristic of monopoly commodities.

Who has a monopoly if you don't make money?

However, the cost of R&D is almost negligible for Rorschach, and the most important scientific researchers, Rorschach picks up for nothing and does not need to be paid. And the most precious experimental materials are the blood of mutants and Inhumans, which is also picked up for nothing for Rorschach.

The rest of the mechanical design and manufacturing costs are even less worth mentioning. Rorschach has the world's most powerful mechanical design and production capacity, and others need to spend an unknown amount of dollars to build a precision production line, while Sarah can achieve mass production in less than a day as long as she has the blueprints.

Therefore, the products of Tindersource seem to be of good quality and high-end technology, but in fact, it is a big profit to sell one. Otherwise, it is impossible for Rorschach to sell the same type of products to Huaxia at a triple discount, and occasionally support the country, and he is not a fool if he has been trading at a loss.

It's just that no one in the world knows this, and Europe and the United States feel that although Rorschach's products are a little more expensive, they are still worth the money; On the Huaxia side, he felt that Rorschach was selling at a loss, which was a typical example of cherishing the motherland.

"Owners, these mechanical pets seem to blend in more easily with the crowd than robots." Sarah said to Rorschach.

"This is normal, the so-called uncanny valley effect. Our intelligent robots are too human-like, so they are a bit difficult for people to accept. They are always thinking about whether they will be replaced by such robots, which is not the case with mechanical pets. We had gone in the wrong direction, and we should have vigorously sold this non-humanoid product. Rorschach said.

Rorschach didn't expect that what was just a whimsical toy made by Violet at the beginning would make the Tindersource Company's plan to hide troops and the people take a big step. Speaking of which, the combat effectiveness of this mechanical pet is actually not much worse than that of humanoid robots, and the only thing that is not suitable is that it cannot be equipped with weapons that use humans.

You can't get Bikachu to grab an AK to shoot, this little guy doesn't have that long fingers at all.

"With the right adjustments to the mechanical pet's abilities, I'm going to make Elven Trainer a fashionable profession. I'm going to have Violet arrange for those kids to do the tour, I'm going to build elven gyms all over the United States, and all trainers are welcome to take on the challenge. Of course, these Pokemon's superpowers can only be used in designated venues, and I don't want to see anyone control these little guys to loot. Rorschach said quite boldly.

"Rest assured, master. Belcher has already set up the relevant settings, and usually these mechanical pets will only enter a defensive state when their owners are threatened, and they are guaranteed not to kill people. Sarah assured Rorschach.

This setting was actually done at the beginning.

Do not allow this pet to actively hurt or kill people. Otherwise, as long as someone catches on to make a fuss, it can easily create a sense of distrust.

The setting of Pokémon is based on legitimate defense from the beginning, and even if the owner orders it, it will never take the initiative to attack others.

Unless someone can geniusly crack the program of the Tinder Source Intelligence Sequence and rewrite the entire Pokemon system. But if there really is such a person, Rorschach will also know about it as soon as possible.

In this world, no connection is as strong as that between the Tinder creator and these subordinate creations.

If Rorschach wanted to, he could even communicate directly with the millions of mechanical beetles.

"By the way, I'll be going to Asgard as soon as possible to see if I can get the Flame of Eternal Life back. You hurry up and study nuclear fusion technology, and let Maximus figure out how to find a way to lack the fuel that is missing, and I remember that there is no shortage of this precious material on the moon. Rorschach continued.

Maximus is the younger brother of the Black Bolt King, and the last exchange on the island turned the Inhuman royal family, who was indistinguishable from mortals, into Rorschach's undercover agent.

Rorschach is willing to support him in creating the Black Bolt King, but Maximus also has to work for Rorschach. The moon contains a huge amount of raw materials for nuclear fusion, which is very difficult to synthesize on Earth, and the price is 100 times more expensive than diamonds.

Now it was Dr. Octavius, who had been poached from Osborne's business, that he had begun to set up a laboratory, and research on stable nuclear fusion could begin.

The yet-blackened Doctor Octopus is in a relatively unappreciated state at Osborne for the time being, after all, the topic of stable nuclear fusion has been studied countless times. The most critical material aspect is not up to par, and it seems that no alloy can withstand the high temperatures produced by nuclear fusion.

Even Zhenjin and Edelman alloy are not good, and they will slowly dissolve under that kind of 100 million degrees of heat. But there is something that can replace specific materials and withstand the terrifying heat.

That is, the invisible force field, the magnetic force, the telekinetic force, all kinds of invisible positions can build a structure that is not affected by high temperatures, and control nuclear fusion in an invisible container.

And for the research and development of this invisible position in this world, who can compare to the gifted mutants and inhumans? And who will be able to turn this "manpower" into the power of a machine?

Only Rorschach!

Stable fusion technology was like a tailor-made Rorschach technology in the beginning. And while Rorschach was listening to a radio commercial and discussing the details of her work with Sarah, somewhere in a corner of Hell's Kitchen, a skinny, long-haired woman was holding up her camera to film a strange scene.

A gray-blue giant emerges from a crack that suddenly appears.

But the figure appeared for only a few seconds, and then quickly disappeared.

"What the hell is this?" The woman looked at the camera in confusion, and if it weren't for the gray-blue giant inside that was clearly visible, she would have thought she was dazzled.

"Hmph, it's just a good price."

After saying this, the woman leaned on the railing and flipped out, easily jumping silently from the seventh-floor balcony to the ground. This kind of ability is not something that ordinary people can do.

New York will never be short of extraordinary people like her.
