Chapter 97 Thinking of the Poor
Alvin sent away Professor Cage and Domingo that day, and rumors began to spread in Hell's Kitchen the next day that Alvin, the boss of 25th Street, had an old Mo killer under his command, who was very fierce!
Clark Gable, who sells fake goods on the next street, even came to the restaurant to ask Alvin if he wanted to expand his territory and take over the street in his hands. He was willing to pay some price every year!
Alvin felt a little pity for this guy who became a gang boss and finally became a community director. He was under great pressure and wanted to give up his job.
But what can you do? You choose the path yourself, and for guys like Clark who are determined to do the right thing, of course the more people the better!
………………
On the lawn of Stark's manor on Long Island, Alvin and Frank were nervously watching Nick, who was wearing a crude mechanical prosthetic leg, take the first difficult step.
Stark looked at Alvin with contempt, expressed disdain for his country bumpkin behavior, and said in a very unscrupulous manner: "Man, that's just the simplest cheap mechanical leg. It won't become advanced even if you stare at it."
Some.
You really don’t want to consider our Stark Group’s multifunctional augmented prosthetics?
If you are really too poor, I can sponsor one for you for free!"
Alvin glanced at Stark sideways. There really is nothing to talk about with this kind of rich bastard. I spent all my money to buy you a high-end gadget. Nick will be fucking useless next year when he grows taller. I'm here.
Where can I find such a large amount of money?
Alvin understood that Stark wanted to sponsor Nick, but he didn't like it, and he believed Frank wouldn't like it either.
Moreover, the current mechanical legs are very good, with adjustable height, counterweight, sensitive response, and good human-machine effect. Except for the shape of a skeleton, which is a bit ugly, I believe Nick will not mind. I didn’t notice that he was limping.
Showing off his crippled feet to Ginny while walking?
Alvin looked at the happy Nick, turned to Stark and said: "I have to say, you are a genius, man, I think this thing is a good thing that can be brought to the market, not your fucking laboratory
What was created, an enhanced human assistive device.
I think you should fire your product manager because he is a mentally retarded guy."
Stark scratched his chin in confusion and said, "Why? There are obviously better choices, why use such low-end gadgets? The Stark Group only makes the best things!"
Alvin resisted the urge to punch him in the nose and said: "Man, there is something wrong with your brain. You have to let it go for a while, or find a suitable person to help you operate it.
How much does that thing made in your laboratory cost? How many people do you think can afford it?
Now, how much does this prosthesis cost that you only spent three days designing?"
Stark said with some pride: "Then you are wrong. I have artificially divided the laboratory products into three grades: high, medium and low. Poor people can consider low-end human assistance systems!
Man, you have to learn from me in business, haha! I am a genius, don’t forget it!”
Alvin looked at Stark like he was looking at shit and said, "So genius Mr. Stark, how much does your low-end version of the human assistance system cost?
How many have you sold now?”
Stark glanced at Alvin proudly, snorted, and said: "The lowest version of the human assistance system only costs 180,000 US dollars, which is the price of an ordinary car. Who can't afford it?
Our product is not yet on the market and is still in the clinical trial stage, but the results are very good, you should know!"
Alvin looked at Stark sarcastically and said, "You are so stupid. The Stark Group will collapse sooner or later. Go and coax Pepper back!"
Stark waved his fist angrily and shouted: "Hey, man, you have to speak clearly, otherwise we will meet in the ring. My karate coach told me that I can go out and beat people up!"
Alvin didn't quite understand the thoughts of these wealthy people. He thought for a moment and said, "Tony, in your eyes, who is a poor person?"
Seeing Stark's serious expression on what he wanted to say, Alvin stretched out his hand to stop the words that might come out of his mouth that would definitely hurt him.
Pointing to Nick's prosthetic leg, he said, "How much do you think this thing should cost?"
Stark thought for a moment and said: "If you don't count my genius design, well ~ eight thousand yuan!"
Alvin smiled and said: "Then do you think that one will be more popular?
Let me correct you, as the principal of a community school, I should be considered a middle-class person, not a poor person in your eyes!
Dude, go get Pepper back, seriously, there’s no shame in apologizing to a pretty girl!”
Stark thought for a while and said to me: "You mean that the cheap prosthetic limbs produced by the Stark Group will be more promising than the high-end products in our laboratory?"
Alvin decided to ignore this guy. He would never understand the way the wealthy people think about doing business. I guess the Stark Group is not short of the money!
When Stark saw Alvin ignoring him, he turned around and went to make a phone call. Judging from his sullen look, he probably called Pepper. Who knows that he, the president of the group, can't even recognize all the people on the board of directors?
Woolen cloth!
After a while, Stark came over, raised his chin arrogantly, looked at Alvin and said: "Man, when it comes to doing business, you are still a little behind. The best thing for the Stark Group is to put these low
Even if we license out high-end products, we should still focus on the development of high-end products.
Man, seriously, you have to change your poor mentality sometimes, it won't make a big business! Haha!
But since your kind reminder prevented me from throwing this thing into the trash, I decided that I can sponsor Nick with a human assistance system, an advanced one, until he reaches adulthood!"
Regarding Stark, Alvin no longer looked at him like shit, but thought he was just a piece of shit. He said angrily: "Nick's future prosthetic limbs will be really good things, not your kind of charging machines."
Grasp!"
Seeing Stark's contemptuous expression, Alvin laughed angrily. This arrogant man is really annoying!
"Maybe after a while, I will show you what real steel limbs look like!
I'm afraid you won't like it too much when the time comes!" Alvin said meaningfully.
"OK, OK" Stark put his hands to his ears, waved them as if to shoo away flies, and said impatiently: "Okay, man, although it's not a good habit to brag, I forgive you.
Yeah, who made us friends!"
After ending the discussion about Stark Group's products, Stark became excited again, dragging Alvin and saying: "You have to come with me to see the Ares 2 I designed for you.
You didn't take Ares 1 away last time, so I made some modifications to it.
Chapter completed!
