"You have to take responsibility for what you said." Governor Chu stared at Zhao Chen, his eyes were completely different from before.
"I keep my promise! But I need some time." Zhao Chen said.
Governor Chu instantly showed a kind smile: "I can arrange the best research resources for you in the best laboratory in the Chu River Star Region. As long as you need assistants in the Xingyao Empire, I can find them for you.
Even the professors from the Galactic Alliance, I can think of a way."
"That's not necessary. I'm used to being free on my own. And I have a weird temper. I don't like developing starships in a lifeless research laboratory.
If you really let me go to your research laboratory, I might not be able to come up with the starship technology you want in this life." Zhao Chen smiled and waved his hand.
"You really don't want to come?" Governor Chu stared at Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen shrugged and said, "Does it matter where I do my research? As long as the Governor can get what you want in the end, that's fine.
Moreover, if I really go to your place, I may cause you a lot of trouble."
Governor Chu sighed for a moment, and then said: "How long will it take you to come up with the T4 star battleship that you said is cost-effective and can be mass-produced?"
"Ten years..." As soon as Zhao Chen said this number, he was interrupted by Governor Chu.
"Ten years is too long, no way," Governor Chu said.
"Five years!" Zhao Chen said.
Governor Chu raised three fingers: "In three years, I want you to come up with a set of technical drawings and feasibility reports for the T4 star battleship! As for the construction, I can take full responsibility for it.
You don’t have to worry that this old man like me will trick you, the technology is still yours.
If it is as affordable as you say, every time I build one, I will pay you a technology licensing fee fifty times the cost!
I guarantee this as the Governor of Chuhe!"
The authorization fee is fifty times the cost of a single ship.
Under normal circumstances, the profit of the T1 starship on the market is between five and ten times; the profit of the T2 starship is about twenty times; and the profit of the T3 starship is about forty times.
As for the T4 starship, it cannot be sold in large quantities so far, nor can it be sold publicly, so the cost and selling price are relatively confidential.
Relatively speaking, the fifty times licensing fee was taken advantage of by Old Man Chu, but he was responsible for the manufacturing himself, which saved Zhao Chen's cost and construction time. It's hard to say who lost and who gained.
"But! How can I believe that you really have the ability to develop a very cost-effective T4 interstellar battleship!" Governor Chu changed the topic and stared at Zhao Chen closely.
Zhao Chen smiled and said: "Then I can first give the Governor a very cost-effective T3 star destroyer! The T4 star battleship I developed will also conduct extended research experiments based on this T3 star destroyer."
"The cost of a T3 star destroyer on the market today is generally around seven million star coins, and the selling price is between two hundred and three hundred million star coins." Governor Chu said this as if he was casual.
"My T3 star destroyer not only ranks among the top three known T3 star destroyers in terms of combat effectiveness, but also costs less than five million star coins to build!" Zhao Chen said with a smile.
Governor Chu narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhao Chen: "Tell me, you come up with such a good thing. What do you want from me?"
"I didn't expect to get anything. I thought it was just an ordinary transaction. And I am also a member of the Xingyao Empire. As an imperial baron, I naturally have to consider the empire.
The machines are our enemies and we must defeat them!
I am willing to sacrifice my spirit for the future of the empire.
Of course... I don't want to be disturbed by others, after all, you also know the truth that a man is innocent and carries a jade." Zhao Chen said with a helpless look.
"When can you give me the technical drawings of the T3 star destroyer you mentioned?
Of course, you don’t have to worry about me swallowing up your kid’s starship technology. If it’s really good, my Chu family will give you thirty times the technology licensing fee for each ship it builds.” Governor Chu said.
"I can encrypt this starship technology and transmit it to you within a day." Zhao Chen said bluntly.
Governor Chu was a little surprised that this boy was so straightforward and dared to hand over the T3 starship technology so readily. It would probably be a pain in the butt for others.
"Okay, I'll wait for you here.
As for whether we will cooperate or not, I will give you a detailed reply within five days!" After Governor Chu finished speaking, he exited the holographic meeting without waiting for Zhao Chen to speak.
Zhao Chen also withdrew. He sat on the office chair and felt that his entire back was soaked.
Talking about things with a star governor, an imperial duke, or a five-star marshal is really more tiring than fighting a war with the Zerg.
"Fortunately, I was prepared and arranged those things before; otherwise, I think this bad old man would take me back at all costs." Zhao Chen let out a long breath.
As for what Zhao Chen said?
In fact, it was his performance during this rescue operation.
"For now, the only one I can rely on is the Chu family, but I can't let the Chu family turn me into a caged bird. As long as I'm still outside, I have a chance to rise.
First use the T4 Star Battleship to lure out this bad old man, and then use the technology of the T3 Star Battleship to gain this guy's trust... But the technology licensing fee is thirty times the cost of a single ship, and the Duke's family is so wealthy." Zhao Chen actually said
Some of them are very exciting, and long-term cooperation is not impossible.
"But it's not finalized yet, who knows what this old fox will do with me in the end.
Let's redeem the T3 star battleship he wants first." Zhao Chen opened the system page.
He had already prepared for the T3 star battleship he was going to give to the Chu family.
[Do you want to consume 7,000 system points and 10 mission points to redeem the product ‘T3 Yanlong Class Medium Star Destroyer’ technical drawings?
Sure!
[Congratulations on obtaining the technical drawings of the T3 Yanlong-class medium-sized star destroyer]
[Remaining system points: 7720]
[Remaining mission points: 64]
Zhao Chen then began to edit the technical drawings and data of this T3 Flame Dragon-class medium-sized star destroyer, because those data and data were all in his mind. If he wanted to send them to Governor Chu, he would need to edit them manually.
