Volume 5 Chapter 140 Established companies and new companies
“Hei, it’s not a problem if they want the technology, but before asking for it, shouldn’t they see if they’re qualified?” Xu Yi gave a cold laugh as he threw the letters in his hand to the side, “Cruise, you can just burn these things in the future, don’t give them to me.”
The letters were from the companies of the Lampuri Kingdom. There were only minor changes to the content, they all expressed their interest in the magic machines of the Frestech Chamber of Commerce, hoping that the Frestech Chamber of Commerce would share the technology with them.
There were magic machine companies, as well as two companies that didn’t participate in the magic machine industry. This showed that the influence of the magic machine industry in the Lampuri Kingdom and the surrounding kingdoms became bigger and bigger, so even traditional companies couldn’t sit still.
Chairman Cruise sitting in front of Xu Yi looked at the letters he threw onto the table and revealed an awkward smile.
The chairman of those companies came to him with those letters and begged him to bring them to Xu Yi, but they never would have thought that Xu Yi would disdain even looking at them.
After a bit of silence, chairman Cruise asked, “Then……Xu Yi, which companies do you think are qualified to get the magic machine technology? For example, is our Amrit Chamber of Commerce qualified?”
“What? You’re finally interested in joining this industry?” Xu Yi asked back.
“No, no, no, I’m not interested.” Chairman Cruise shook his head, “I was just asking, do you think our company is qualified?”
“No.” Xu Yi denied him without any courtesy, “Your company doesn’t have a problem in terms of funds, but your accumulated technology is too weak. Even if I gave you the technology for free, you wouldn’t be able to do a thing with it.”
“It can’t be that bad……” Chairman Cruise was a bit unwilling to admit this, “As long as you can give us enough technical support, I just need to invest a large amount and should be able to grasp it.”
“Alright, I’ll give you the technology for the Magic Cement Mixer that your company uses and tell you that you need to invest at least three million gold coins, as well as two years of time to have some initial understanding of it. Are you willing to accept this?”
“Un…..If it’s three million gold coins and two years, it isn’t impossible.” Chairman Cruise looked at Xu Yi and laughed, “We spend at least one and a half million gold coins just to buy the Magic Cement Mixers from you? Our company uses this thing in many places, so if we can make it ourselves, we can save quite a bit.”
“Are you certain?” Xu Yi asked with a ghost of a smile.
Chairman Cruise was surprised before waving his hand with an ugly look, “Forget it, it’s better to just buy it from you. The magic machines from your Frestech Chamber of Commerce will definitely be stronger, it’ll be stronger than what we can develop ourselves. Why would I waste all that time and money for this?”
Xu Yi shook his head and said with a sigh, “It’s no problem if you think like this, but I’m too disappointed if the others think like this.”
“Oh? Oh…..I understand, you still want to promote the magic machine industry?” Chairman Cruise said.
“Un, the Lampuri Kingdom and I, as well as the Drake Kingdom will be building those agricultural magic machines and the construction magic machines. This is already me indicating my willingness to release the technology, but up to this point, it’s all this trash that comes looking for me. The companies that I actually appreciate haven’t moved at all, so I really am disappointed.” Xu Yi said with a sigh.
“I think that……that isn’t that they can’t see this and they do want this technology, but Xu Yi, have you ever thought that the companies that you have a good impression of…..Un, the best should be the Ireland Chamber of Commerce? You praise them for being at the forefront of innovation.”
“Right, the Ireland Chamber of Commerce has always been willing to invest in research. Although I don’t like that Kovacs, I have to admit that he is a genius at business. It’s his help that has made the Ireland Chamber of Commerce the biggest company when it comes to magic machine components.”
“Look, even if the Ireland Chamber of Commerce is the biggest company in building components, have you thought about how much money the Ireland Chamber of Commerce has now?” Chairman Cruise then asked.
“This…..Freeman told me last time that his company was earning over three hundred thousand last year, so I estimate that it should be more now.”
“So that means that three hundred thousand is already quite a bit for them, but if they want to buy the technology from your Frestech Chamber of Commerce, it is far from enough.” Chairman Cruise seriously said, “Not to mention that after buying this technology, they need to spend a large amount of funds and manpower to digest it. You just told me that it would take at least three million gold coins and two years to grasp the Magic Cement Mixer technology. For a small company like theirs, it would take even more. Do you think they can handle this?”
Xu Yi was in a daze, not being able to respond.
