Chapter 558: Chapter 558: Gold
A lot ran through his mind as Li Xiangwen raised an eyebrow in the real world.
"Mr. Mo, how much does your company charge for White?"
"We at DitoNi intend to pre-order 30 units."
Tap~ tap~ tap~
In the quiet conference room, Mo Jingchun’s fingers were rhythmically tapping on the conference table, the sound resembling a girl’s high heels clicking on a wooden floor.
The rhythm was sometimes fast and sometimes slow, making people feel a bit impatient and uneasy.
Indeed, in Li Xiangwen’s eyes, Mo Jingchun was doing it on purpose.
Would he ask for an exorbitant price? Li Xiangwen thought he might not, but the price would definitely not be cheap.
Suddenly, the tapping noise ceased, and Li Xiangwen looked intently at Mo Jingchun, who was smiling.
A smile that made one’s heart tremble.
"Currently, we haven’t achieved mass production, and the production costs haven’t been determined. The exact price is really uncertain at this point."
"But, it’s expected to be no less than two million."
Seeing that Li Xiangwen’s expression showed no fluctuation, Mo Jingchun couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.
As expected, there are plenty of rich people, and the price of two million seems a bit low?
But is Mo Jingchun a fool?
Obviously not.
"Ahem, this is just the price for the basic model."
In the next moment, Li Xiangwen revealed an expression of "just as expected".
Just like buying a car, there are definitely different configurations.
"Don’t know about the highest configuration..."
"It won’t exceed two hundred fifty."
Two hundred fifty.
Li Xiangwen somewhat suspected that Mo Jingchun was subtly mocking him, but he had no evidence.
"Is that in dollars or RMB?"
The moment he said this, Li Xiangwen regretted it because he noticed Mo Jingchun was clearly taken aback before entering into deep thought.
"Of course it’s..." Mo Jingchun deliberately prolonged the sound.
"Of course it’s in RMB, President Li, don’t you know that Candy Technology has never accepted dollar payments?"
Pausing for a moment, Mo Jingchun said with a half-smile: "Or do you think the price in dollars is more suitable, President Li?"
Li Xiangwen left, running off as soon as he signed the contract.
Sitting in the car, Li Xiangwen still felt a bit fearful.
Are young people nowadays that bold?
Luckily, Mo Jingchun just made a little joke. Otherwise, if the price of White had skyrocketed several times because of what he said, not to mention from the company’s side, once White officially hit the market in the future, a large crowd would definitely scold him for being out of his mind.
Recalling Mo Jingchun’s background, Li Xiangwen sighed and muttered to himself: "City tricks are deep, rural roads are slippery, the tricks are even more complex."
Just a few words, several times he nearly fell into the trap.
It’s really not his lack of vigilance; at the beginning, White just brought him too much shock.
Back at the hotel, Li Xiangwen was the only one in the room.
After taking off his coat, Li Xiangwen skillfully pulled a voice recorder from the lining of his suit.
About a minute later, Li Xiangwen’s face turned quite unpleasant, and he couldn’t help but mutter a curse.
"Damn!"
"Do they have to be so defensive against people?"
From the recording, you could tell that ever since he stepped into Candy Science and Technology Park, or even possibly at the gate, the tape contained nothing but static.
With a sigh, Li Xiangwen no longer cared but began to prepare for a video conference.
Outside the kindergarten, Feiyan, dressed in a windbreaker, watched White standing motionless at the kindergarten gate with more envy than surprise.
Clearly, it was her job, and now she’s idling again.
"White~"
Before Candy appeared, her voice was already heard.
Soon enough, Feiyan saw Candy rushing out from the kindergarten.
"White, why are you here, where’s my brother."
White blinked, "Working."
"Alright~ Let’s go back quickly."
She didn’t feel it before, but now with a group of people watching and taking photos with their phones, Candy felt awkward.
A gust of wind blew, and Feiyan sighed.
Watching as White was already leading Candy away, apparently, Candy forgot she had a bicycle to ride.
Feiyan even suspected she might have been forgotten as well.
As soon as Candy ran into the office, she heard her brother’s gaming sounds.
Candy looked up at White with a peculiar expression, "White, didn’t you say my brother was working~"
"Brother is clearly playing games," Candy pointed at her brother in front of the desk and said.
White glanced at Mo Jingchun, and when he looked back at Candy, he didn’t say anything, just kept blinking.
Evidently, White wasn’t Zero and couldn’t keep an eye on Mo Jingchun’s every move all the time.
Even if he could, it would be restricted.
"Brother, is White broken? Why does he keep blinking his eyes."
Mo Jingchun glanced up while gaming and calmly said, "For such profound questions, better ask Zero."
"Brother didn’t set up a continuous blinking function."
"Zero?"
As expected, Zero responded.
"Because blinking makes it look cuter~"
This explanation, Candy tilted her head, blinked a few times, and couldn’t argue.
Witnessing this scene, Mo Jingchun finally understood.
Zero learned this trick from Candy.
The blinking action was almost identical.
The game finished, Mo Jingchun stood up and stretched.
"Let’s go."
The end of October.
Under the vast clear sky, the sunlight pouring down made people want to sleep.
On the way to the lab, Mo Jingchun wore a big smile.
Anyone who greeted him, Mo Jingchun would nod in response.
Just like the sun shining down, warming people’s hearts.
Just ten minutes ago, Zero informed him that White had completed the self-replication of ten units.
"Today is a good day, everything I wish for will come true..."
Under the astonished gazes of a few armed police officers, Mo Jingchun, rarely singing, took the elevator to the top floor of the laboratory building.
"Looks like Mr. Mo is in a very good mood today."
"Not just good, it’s like today’s his wedding day."
"I bet some experimental project must have made a significant breakthrough."
"No way? White was just developed not long ago."
········
In the laboratory, eleven Whites stood in a row.
As Mo Jingchun looked at these identical Whites, if not for one of them blinking while looking at him, he couldn’t tell which was the White he gave to Candy.
"Zero, call Qin Yuzhu and tell her to pick up the goods, or give me an address; we’ll ship it to her for free."
"Got it~"
Mo Jingchun didn’t know how exactly Zero communicated with Qin Yuzhu, but within less than two minutes, Zero announced:
"Boss, Qin Yuzhu told me someone will come to pick up the goods."
Mo Jingchun shrugged indifferently, "Saved on delivery fees, that’s nice."
When Mo Jingchun saw the person picking up the goods, he was taken aback.
Weighing the somewhat heavy gold in his hand, Mo Jingchun still handed over the box containing White to the person picking up the goods.
Honestly, Mo Jingchun never thought this kind of transaction was possible.
