Chapter 52 One Dollar
"Don't you think you sold it a bit expensive?" Nick Fury was a little helpless.
When Meng Ao heard this, he immediately looked at him with a cautious look: "We have signed a contract."
"I don't mean to go back on my word." Nick Fury waved his hand: "I just think the price of your new weapon is a bit unreasonable."
"No, no! You say this, it will make me feel that I am a bad businessman. But in fact, this price is the price we Storm company considers from many aspects after balance. It is not high at all! Our R&D expenses and huge investment in the early stage always require a return on our capital, right? Besides, the orders for the first phase are very few, and more importantly, you did not object to the contract when signing."
Meng Ao shook his head neatly and competed according to reason.
"Ha, R&D expenses?"
Nick Fury was blocked by Meng Ao, but when he heard that Meng Ao was involved in R&D expenses, he just wanted to laugh.
The super serum project has huge investment in the early stage, and Nick Fury believes this! But when it comes to B.O.W "tyrant"-level biochemical weapons and also the large amount of investment in the early stage of colonization, Nick Fury just wants to criticize Meng Ao and his face.
As an important shareholder of Storm Enterprise, it only takes a little time to know the actual capital expenditure details of Storm Enterprise. Some of them are proficient in accounting.
As the director of SHIELD, although he was a little overstepping his authority, he was still qualified to secretly investigate the capital flow, annual profits, and accompanying expenses of the Storm family. Some of him were smart and capable agents!
It is clear that everything is not exposed or discovered, as long as it is not discovered, at most it only takes some time and manpower, and there is no serious consequence. Even if it is discovered in a secret investigation, S.H.I.E.D. has the power to monitor its own partners, and at most it is just a little too much.
In the past, Nick Fury might have speculated that biochemical weapons such as tyrants were secretly experimented by Mendel Storm, but now he has understood that this is a wrong guess. From the information collected, he did not find any unknown secret investments in Storm's company and the Storm family in recent years.
Biochemical weapons such as tyrants and colonial clothing were either stolen from a secret and powerful research department, or were created by himself, who had a family background.
The former can be ruled out because any organization will have rigorous and meticulous protection measures for such important research, and no mistakes are allowed. If they are lost, they will be recovered at all costs.
Organizations that can possess this technology will naturally not be a vulnerable group without background or means of resistance. As long as there is a little bit of news, it can bring great trouble to Storm's company.
During the Osborne Industrial storm, many forces and companies also learned that Storm's company has new biological and chemical weapons. However, Storm's company is still calm and has not received revenge as imagined. S.H.E.L.D. has not yet discovered that there is a force in secret that has been implementing any plans for Storm's company in the near future.
The latter is closer to the truth in Nick Fury's judgment. But since Meng Ao can come up with two biochemical weapons that are comparable in such a short time and even gradually eliminate the Super Serum Project, you can imagine the process of creating them. Compared with Super Serum, both the research and development time and the process are extremely smooth.
Nick Fury didn't know how much energy and money Meng Ao invested in the two biochemical weapons, tyrants and colonial clothes, but he thought he would have much lower energy and funds than the research and development of super serum. According to the researchers in the laboratory of Storm's Ministry of Applied Science and Technology, he was afraid that the research staff would be lower than that of super serum.
"Your so-called investment is not as expensive as you think." Nick Fury wanted to say to Meng'ao in this way. But as this sentence was about to blurt out, the smile on his face suddenly froze. Although he firmly believed that his speculation was correct, the ones he speculated and those he secretly investigated could not be put on the surface for the time being.
Especially in the current situation where Meng Ao faces to face!
Looking at Meng Ao's young and enthusiastic face, Nick Fury, who was already dark, cursed "damn profiteer" with a dark face in his heart, was speechless for a moment. Even if these things could be spoken out, Nick Fury believed that Meng Ao would firmly deny them.
"I think, don't you think that the ability of a soldier-level colony of this price is a bit single and mediocre? It only has strong strength and extraordinary recovery. The sergeant-level and general-level are good, but they are too expensive." Nick Fury changed the topic: "After receiving Stryker's X gene library, you can always select some excellent X gene abilities as the ability to colony, right?"
"We always have to go step by step. At present, we still have many difficulties in the fusion of X genes, the elimination, evolution and upgrading of breeding clothing, and even large-scale and low-cost mass production." Meng Aoyun calmly said: "It's not like a fat man who can't eat a bite."
"Do you think I will believe you?" Nick Fury's body bent slightly towards Meng'ao. His tall body and sharp eyes gave people a heavy psychological pressure in this posture. "Your latest toy T03 tyrant, at least, has nearly ten super rare X-gene abilities, right? Xiao Mengao, my requirements are not high, really not high."
"I need to explain it!" Meng Ao raised his hand innocently: "Whether it is the Tyrant T01, T02, or the latest T03, their production cost is very high! The cost of T03 is more than 200 million US dollars. If we count the imperfect defective products that failed to produce, a T03 may cost nearly one billion US dollars."
Meng Ao was very calm. Anyway, Nick Fury could never prove such a thing. No matter how low he said the success rate or the cost was, Nick Fury could only doubt it in his heart.
"Okay, let's change the topic." Nick Fury stared at Meng Ao for a moment, and realized that he could not bring any pressure to Meng Ao or make any concessions. Then, he was slightly unwilling to rebirth and stood up straight, retracting his oppressive gaze.
"Look at this." Nick Fury took a folder from Colson and handed it to Meng Ao with his backhand.
Meng Ao reached out to take it, ignored the top secret words on it, and looked through it on the spot. The document was not thick, and it was even thin only a few sheets of paper, but the content on it was enough for Meng Ao to extend it based on it and guessed a lot of things in his mind.
"Well, it seems like a big plan." Meng Ao closed the document.
"You have been having a good time in the past two years, especially dismembering Osborne's wrist." Nick Fury ignored the documents handed back by Meng Ao. As expected of the elders who grew up in the younger generation, he reached out and patted Meng Ao's shoulders, and continued earnestly: "As the first task you took over when you join the company, do it well!"
"Job joining?" Meng Aohu was a little nervous.
"We signed the contract, Xiao Meng'o." Nick Fury showed the fox's smile.
"I remember that my position is a consultant." Meng Ao's face darkened.
"That's right."
"I thought the consultant was a free job, and he had no right to do anything." Meng Ao's tone was a little bitter. The contract he signed did not clearly specify the responsibilities and directions of the consultant's responsibilities and responsibility in detail in Article 1,23.
"It's right to say that, but it's a pity to treat people who are so good at it. It's a pity that you don't use conspiracies and tricks." Nick Fury continued to laugh, looking forward to it.
"I don't think I can't refuse?" Meng Ao looked at Nick Fury, and Nick Fury tilted his head with a stern face.
"Okay, let's talk about the wages." Meng Ao sighed helplessly.
"Puff!" He didn't know his director's thoughts, but he could figure out eight or nine points, so he couldn't help laughing after Meng Ao's words. He had already guessed what kind of abacus his chief was in his heart.
Meng Ao's face suddenly turned black again.
"Little Meng'ao, you're not short of money." Nick Fury's tone was no longer stiff, and it became a little softer in strangeness.
"Not short of money does not mean I don't want money." Meng Ao said seriously: "Even if it's a dollar, it's the labor income I deserve."
