Chapter 31: Don't be so nervous
Enrique was certainly not the only student who was invited to join the Basic Magical Industry Academy organized by the Chimera Chamber of Commerce, because this time, the Chimera Chamber of Commerce had built a total of forty-three basic magical industrial academies of the same level within the Candela Empire, and each academy would initially enroll two hundred, and the total number of students was expected to even exceed ten thousand.
And according to the plan announced by the Chimera Chamber of Commerce, they will also cooperate with the official Candela Empire for a long time to vigorously promote the education related to the basic knowledge of the magic industry represented by these basic magical industry colleges within the empire.
With the huge size and scale of the Candela Empire, this plan is extremely large, and the investment of funds, manpower, etc. involved will be an astonishing astronomical amount.
"Why did the Chimera Chamber of Commerce suddenly become so aggressive?" Kennard wondered. "These guys have always been lukewarm to us before, but this time they took the initiative to come together to cooperate with us, and they were so active and willing to spend money, which is really against common sense. ”
"Maybe they figured it out of the blue. Xu Yi said with a smile. "Of course, if you really want to say it, I think it's probably because the top brass of the Candela Empire doesn't want to see our Chamber of Commerce infiltrate too much. Something like basic education is too important for a country, and it's not surprising that the Candela Empire wants to take it into its own hands. ”
"Well, that makes sense. Kennard nodded, pondered for a moment, picked up another document and handed it to Xu Yi. "Cooperation in basic education makes sense, but I think there is still a problem with this. ”
"Really?"
Xu also took the document. It was found that this was an official business letter issued in the name of the Chimera Chamber of Commerce, which contained a cooperation agreement submitted by a branch of the Chimera Chamber of Commerce specializing in timber business to the Xinfei Heavy Machinery Chamber of Commerce.
The specific content of the agreement is that the Chimera Timber Chamber of Commerce hopes that the Xinfei Heavy Machinery Chamber of Commerce can tailor some heavy-duty magic machinery for them. It is specially used to cut and transport timber.
"What's wrong with that?" Xu Yi looked at Kennard in surprise. "Isn't it normal to design special magic machines for other chambers of commerce?"
"The question is later. Kennard turned the last page of the document for Xu Yi with a calm face, and then pointed to the middle part.
Xu Yi looked at it and immediately frowned.
It turned out that in this cooperation agreement, the Chimera Timber Chamber of Commerce proposed to ensure the smooth cooperation between the two parties and maintain a good cooperative relationship for a long time. It is hoped that the two parties will exchange 5% of the shares with each other as a way to stabilize the relationship between the two parties.
If you look at this condition alone, in fact, the Xinfei Heavy Machinery Chamber of Commerce has taken a big advantage.
Because the Chimera Chamber of Commerce is the largest Chamber of Commerce on this continent. The Chimera Timber Chamber of Commerce is also a super-large chamber of commerce that monopolizes the timber business of many countries, including the Candela Empire, and it is far superior to the Xinfei Heavy Machinery Chamber of Commerce in terms of scale, output value and all aspects.
The same 5% stake represents a completely different value.
But if you look closely, you'll find out. The Chimera Timber Chamber of Commerce also requested it later in the agreement. In order to ensure that the various magical machines specially used for wood harvesting created by the Xinfei Heavy Machinery Chamber of Commerce fully meet their requirements, they hope to be able to participate in the research process of these magical machines.
This condition can be regarded as Sima Zhao's heart, which is well known to passers-by.
Obviously, the Chimera Timber Chamber of Commerce wants to participate in this research process, undoubtedly in order to obtain relevant technical information, or some relevant experience accumulation.
"Hey, the Chimera Chamber of Commerce is really willing to do it. Xu Yi couldn't help laughing. "In order to obtain a part of the technology accumulation, I was willing to take out 5% of the shares for exchange. You say if we're willing to open up all the technical information on heavy magic machines to them. Will they transfer the Chimera Timber Chamber of Commerce to us entirely?"
Of course they did. Kennard said without hesitation. "Even if we get all the shares, we won't be able to run as smoothly as the Chimera Timber Chamber of Commerce did in the past. In the end, I'm afraid that most of them will lose. And they can use this to get the technical information they want most, and in the long run, it is cost-effective for them. ”
"Do you think so?" Xu Yi glanced at Kennard.
Kennard was stunned: "Don't you think so, Lord?"
"Me?" Xu Yi looked at the cooperation agreement in his hand, threw him on the table, and stretched. "How do I think it doesn't matter, because ...... It's none of my business. ”
Kennard was stunned for a moment, and then said eagerly and loudly: "Elder, why is this none of your business? I think this is a conspiracy by the Chimera Chamber of Commerce against our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce! What the Chimera Chamber of Commerce is best at is to eat away at other chambers of commerce little by little in this way! They have done this kind of thing countless times!"
"Yes, now that you know, will you still let them succeed?" Xu Yi asked with a smile.
"This ......" Kennard thought for a moment and shook his head vigorously. "Of course I can't let them take our hearts and minds so easily!
Xu Yi smiled: "Kennard, I just remind you that sometimes, you can take a long-term view. As for the other suggestions......"
Xu Yi spread his hands: "Since this is a cooperation agreement proposed by the Chimera Timber Chamber of Commerce to the Xinfei Heavy Machinery Chamber of Commerce, then the decision is in the hands of the Xinfei Heavy Machinery Chamber of Commerce." You, the CEO of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, can make your own suggestions, but you don't need to do the superfluous things, let them handle it themselves. ”
"How can that be done? If they are left alone to face the Chimera Chamber of Commerce, sooner or later they will be swallowed to the ground!" Kennard said excitedly.
"Then let them be swallowed. The smile on Xu Yi's face suddenly disappeared, and his face became cold. "To divide them is to put them to the test alone. If they can't make it, they're not qualified. ”
"But...... But Elder, if the Chimera Chamber of Commerce succeeds this time, they will definitely take action against other aspects, I'm worried...... If we don't handle it well, our entire Chamber of Commerce may be swallowed by the Chimera Chamber of Commerce. ”
"Don't worry, even if the Chimera Chamber of Commerce can swallow all the other departments of our Chamber of Commerce, as long as the Magic Research Institute and the Military Magic Machinery Department are still in control, or as long as I am still here, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will always be there. ”
Feeling the strong confidence in Xu Yi's tone, Kennard was silent for a moment and nodded slowly.
The elder is right, although the scale of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce is now countless times larger than before, the core part is still technology, or simply the elder.
As long as the elder is there, the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce will be there.
This is something that the Chimera Chamber of Commerce can't swallow no matter what.
Thinking of this, Kennard's worries suddenly faded a lot, and after glancing at the cooperation agreement in his hand, he smiled and said, "Okay, Lord Grown, I will deal with this matter at my discretion." ”
Xu Yi shook his head slightly, thinking that Kennard still hadn't gotten rid of his previous fixed thinking pattern after all.
Perhaps it is because the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has risen too fast and developed too fast, so that including Kennard, the CEO, has not had time to change his thinking mode, and he still always puts himself in a very low position, and always seems overly nervous and cautious when facing the Chimera Chamber of Commerce, the largest chamber of commerce in the continent.
Of course, this does not mean that Xu Yi feels that Kennard's judgment is wrong, on the contrary, he feels that Kennard's judgment is very accurate, and the Chimera Chamber of Commerce definitely has other intentions for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
However, with the current status of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce on the Sainz continent, and the popularity of the magic industry industry led by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce on this continent, not only the Chimera Chamber of Commerce, but also any chamber of commerce, any country or even anyone on this continent will have other intentions for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
It's okay to be cautious, but because you delay your normal development, it will outweigh the losses.
For example, although the Chimera Chamber of Commerce obviously has other intentions this time, in Xu Yi's opinion, in order to strengthen the relationship with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the Chimera Chamber of Commerce took the initiative to vigorously promote the basic education of the magic industry in the Candela Empire, so it invested a lot of money and humans to establish a large number of basic magic industry colleges in the Candela Empire, which actually helped Xu Yi a lot.
The history of the industrial revolution on Earth proves an ironclad fact that people always forget to go from high places.
Even if the Candela Empire really cultivates a large number of talents related to the magic industry in the future, if the magic industry system on the part of the Candela Empire is not perfect enough and the level is not high enough, then these talents will eventually flow to the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
So in the end, it is very likely that the Candela Empire is cultivating talents for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.
This is evident in the case of magicians.
Since the fall of Levin Hassoko Magister five and a half years ago, all the magicians on the continent have paid attention to it, so that the number of magician employees in the New Flying Chamber of Commerce has skyrocketed, and the total number of low-level magicians in the Magic Research Institute and the factory has even exceeded 10,000.
And now even the Magister Sarandur Clay has taken the initiative to work for the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, and the New Flying Chamber of Commerce has also maintained a cooperative relationship with thirteen of the other twenty-five Magisters, allowing these thirteen Magisters to assist in the research of magic projects for the New Flying Chamber of Commerce.
Even the other twelve Magisters, who did not have a clear partnership, still expressed concern for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and heard that more than half of them had begun to quietly conduct research on magical machinery.
Therefore, the current Xinfei Chamber of Commerce can be said to have become the best organization on this continent to use mage resources, and even surpass the mage union.
Xu also believes that in the future, such a situation will appear not only in the magicians, but also in all talents related to the magic industry.
Of course, there is a premise for this, that is, the technology of the new flying chamber of commerce has always been at the forefront. (To be continued......)
