895, poaching(1/2)
Xia Yang was curious about what technology James and the three would exchange with him.
James didn't waste time, opened a lockbox and took out a folder and handed it to Xia Yang.
Taking the folder, Xia Yang opened it and only flipped through two pages, with a look of surprise on his face that could not be concealed.
Because the folder actually contains technical information on the American X37 spacecraft.
The three of them, James, were so powerful that they actually convinced the U.S. military to take out the X37 spacecraft technology and exchange it with him for the second-generation Iron Dome battleship technology.
Damon can't do this.
Xia Yang has long been salivating over the technology of the American X37 spacecraft.
A few years ago, when he was trading technology with Damon, he was willing to bring out the Ranger submarine technology, but he was not lured to the U.S. military.
Of course, it is also possible that Dimon is not very capable of deceiving.
It is true that Ed can also develop a spaceship, but that would be too eye-catching.
You know, space plane technology is unique to the United States.
Research and development began with the Apollo moon landing program in the 1960s. As of today, it has been developed for forty years and at least hundreds of billions of dollars have been invested.
It has only been fifteen years since Leso was established. It would be a bit exaggerated to suddenly build a spaceship.
There is no such thing as one-stop success in the field of science and technology. The only solution is massive capital investment and years of accumulation.
However, with the U.S. X37 spacecraft technology, it will be normal for Leso to successfully develop a spacecraft in a few years.
"Are you satisfied?"
James asked knowingly.
"satisfy!"
Xia Yang nodded with satisfaction.
The X37 spacecraft involves too many cutting-edge technologies, such as high-temperature resistant material technology, space engine technology, communication technology, flight control technology, artificial intelligence technology, etc.
Especially artificial intelligence technology.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for the X37 spacecraft to perform its mission alone in space for many years before returning to the blue sphere and return autonomously.
It is impossible to rely on manual control during the mission. After all, the X37 spacecraft may fly millions of kilometers or even tens of millions of kilometers beyond the Blue Star.
With this kind of ultra-long distance, communication must be delayed.
Therefore, the X37 spacecraft must have extremely strong artificial intelligence.
This is also what Xia Yang likes most.
Because after the Internet, the next trend is artificial intelligence.
Don’t look at the catGPT artificial intelligence that was so popular in the previous life.
There is also the electric car developed by Musk, which is essentially artificial intelligence driving.
But in fact, these are all leftovers from the U.S. military.
The X37 spaceship was the earliest artificial intelligence, and later developed into weapons such as fighter jets.
For example, what is called a loyal teaser is actually a smart fighter.
Other countries are still developing toy-like remote control aircraft.
"The second-generation Iron Dome battleship can be built and produced by you. I will provide all the technology, but I will take 40% of the production profit."
Xia Yang put aside the technical information of the X37 spacecraft and proposed conditions to James and the others.
The X37 spaceship technology is only used to exchange for the second-generation Iron Dome battleship technology. It is a fair transaction and no bullying.
So it is the same as the Black Bat series fighters and Medusa laser weapons produced by Damon.
James and the others obtained the technology, built the second-generation Iron Dome and sold it to the United States. Xia Yang wanted to take a bite of the huge profits generated.
This is also the prerequisite for this transaction, to enter the American warship market.
"Forty percent is too much!" James shook his head and refused.
"We have a battleship factory. As long as we get the technology, we can build the second-generation Iron Dome battleship. The whole process does not require you to invest a penny, but 40% of the profit is taken away by you alone, and the remaining three of us can only
Twenty percent is too little?"
The four of us have a relationship of interest, so there is nothing to be polite about.
Theodore and Julius both had dissatisfaction on their faces.
After all the hard work, you can only get 20% of the profit, which is not worth it.
Xia Yang's expression remained unchanged, "Everyone, please don't forget that I am the leader of this transaction. Without my second-generation Iron Dome technology, you will not be able to make money from the military."
"Actually, I can acquire a shipyard in the United States, build the second-generation Iron Dome, and directly trade it with the U.S. military."
Xia Yang bared his fangs. If James and the others did not agree to his conditions, he would leave them alone and go it alone.
As for this business, it was James and the other three who introduced it. It was so unloyal to do so, so I was embarrassed, haha, I was too young.
However, James and the other three were not surprised, nor were they angry because of this. They are all evil wolves that eat people without spitting out their bones. It is normal, okay?
What's more, what Xia Yang said is true. Without him providing the second-generation Iron Dome battleship technology, the three of them would not be able to earn this money.
Seeing that the negotiations have reached a deadlock.
Julius hesitated before speaking, "It's really too much for you to share 40% of the profits all at once. In order to get the military to exchange the X37 spacecraft technology, we lobbied a lot of people, and we spent a lot of money.
Less humane."
Julius plays the hard work card.
Xia Yang raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "I know you work hard, but if you want to make money, it's not hard."
"You all know that when I cooperate with Dimon, I take 51% of the profit, so I am very kind to you and only take 40% of the profit."
"Unless..." Having said this, Xia Yang paused.
"Unless what?" James asked immediately.
Theodore and Julius immediately breathed a sigh of relief and began to negotiate, as long as they could negotiate, but they were afraid that Xia Yang would not give in.
"Unless, let me retain some technologies, such as the motion capture technology and artificial intelligence technology on the second-generation Iron Dome battleship."
Xia Yang wanted to keep these two technologies and did not want to exchange them with the U.S. Military Department.
The X37 spacecraft involves many cutting-edge technologies.
The same is true for the second-generation Iron Dome battleship.
The latest Iron Dome radar technology, motion capture technology, electromagnetic gun technology, nuclear battery technology, frogman demining robot and artificial intelligence technology, etc.
However, excluding two core technologies at once is a bit too much.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Originally, Xia Yang thought that James and the others would not agree easily, but he did not know that he agreed without hesitation.
"Yes, you can exclude the two technologies of motion capture and artificial intelligence."
James agreed.
The faces of Theodore and Julius already showed the joy that the transaction went smoothly.
Xia Yang thought about it and knew what was going on.
In this technology transaction, James and the other three are just middlemen.
So these technologies are not theirs anyway.
The most important thing is that Xia Yang guessed that what the U.S. military wanted to exchange with him most this time when it came up with spaceship technology was not the motion capture system and artificial intelligence technology.
It should be core technologies such as nuclear batteries, Iron Dome radar, and electromagnetic guns.
After all, the United States has long started to develop artificial intelligence, and it is probably still disdainful of Leso's technology.
As for motion capture technology, American missiles are also extremely accurate, and one missile cannot be equipped with two guidance systems.
That's why James and the three of them are sure to get it done.
Xia Yang can be allowed to retain the two technologies, and the subsequent negotiations will go smoothly.
Four people jointly established a warship factory, and the shares were equally distributed, with each person holding 25%.
It goes without saying that James and the other three have great connections.
Xia Yang excluded motion capture and Leso artificial intelligence technologies from the transaction.
But the three of them succeeded in lobbying for only one week.
We successfully obtained the transaction approval and even received a complete set of technologies for the X37 spacecraft.
In this technology transaction, Ed personally took the initiative, carefully checked the spacecraft technology, and determined that there was no problem, so the transaction was successful.
Xia Yang also handed over the second-generation Iron Dome battleship technology.
Of course, motion capture and artificial intelligence technologies are missing.
As for the second-generation Iron Dome battleship built by James and the others in the United States, these two technologies will be directly provided by Letso.
