Chapter 121: Fully autonomous and self-developed industrial chain?
"But..."
"Engineer Song, with so many weapons on this passenger plane, our airline simply has no way to purchase it..."
"The flight routes of various countries wouldn't allow such a big threat to enter their airspace, right..."
"..."
Just then, the representative of Northern Airlines spoke up.
With Song Qi's pearl in front, the new giant plane developed by Xijing Institute 1 turned from a "sweetheart" into a "cow wife" in the blink of an eye.
It no longer had any appeal.
The hearts of several airline representatives were all set on the giant plane modified by Song Qi.
But the key issue was that while the plane Song Qi developed was good, no matter how you looked at it, it didn't look like a civilian passenger plane!
Such a huge killing machine that could take on an entire military region with one plane, even if Song Qi agreed to sell it to them.
The military region wouldn't agree!
For a time, all the representatives were caught in a dilemma.
Looking at the incredibly advanced giant plane before them, but unable to buy it.
The representatives felt like they were being scratched by a cat, extremely uncomfortable.
Nearby, Song Qi also rested his chin on his hand and fell into deep thought.
After a long time.
Song Qi's voice continued: "If we don't install the weapon system, that would be possible too."
"It's just that the safety of this plane cannot be guaranteed!"
"If it gets blown up by a nuclear bomb in the future, I won't be responsible!"
Once Song Qi said this, all the representatives' eyes lit up.
Holy crap!
This weapon system can be removed?
Isn't this the dream plane for all airlines?
Large space, fast flight, and an intelligent driving system.
Most importantly, it's just too sturdy!
The terrifying defensive power to withstand missiles and retreat unscathed!
If this isn't safe, then there are no safe giant planes in the whole world!
The group of airline representatives immediately became excited.
Several of them even had red eyes!
"It's fine! Engineer Song, safety doesn't matter! Sell it to me, sell it to me!"
"Engineer Song! I'm offering one billion USD per plane! You must consider Southern Airlines!"
"Stop trying to snatch it, you Southern Airlines have the most planes, I, Northern Airlines, offer 1.1 billion USD!"
"..."
The group of airline representatives were so excited they were about to fight.
Another round of bidding had begun!
Song Qi blinked in confusion.
Is it really worth fighting over...
What Song Qi didn't know was that for airlines, the quantity of planes is one thing, but quality is another.
If any airline could get their hands on this god-tier plane, just the advertising effect alone would be unimaginably huge!
Moreover, the plane Song Qi built was indeed worth this price!
Nearby, Wang Zhenlong looked at the scene before him.
He was grinning from ear to ear.
This time, his Northwest Military Region would definitely make a fortune!
"1.1 billion USD?"
Song Qi blinked in confusion.
"What kind of tycoons are you!"
"This giant plane only cost me 300 million to build?"
"As long as a production line is established in the future, the cost can be lowered further; I estimate it could be had for 200 million Dragon Nation currency."
"You offering 1.1 billion USD, aren't you just being a sucker!"
Song Qi said with a straight face.
Nearby, Wang Zhenlong saw this and hurriedly tried to cover Song Qi's mouth.
But the words were already out.
They couldn't be taken back.
Everyone stood there dumbfounded, as if struck by lightning.
200 million?
And it's Dragon Nation currency?
Such an advanced giant plane, enough to bully the whole world, only costs 200 million Dragon Nation currency to build?
That means, with the money to buy one Boeing plane, you could build two such awesome giant planes?
What kind of international joke is this!
Elder Deng, standing to the side, heard this and said with an unbelievable expression.
"Song Qi!"
"You're not joking, are you!"
"Does this giant plane really only cost 200 million to build?"
You have to know.
A new type of giant plane developed by Institute 1 costs 80 million just to build!
Selling it for 100 million is already considered a conscientious price!
But the giant plane built by Institute 1, compared to Song Qi's, is just industrial trash!
Don't look at Song Qi's high price, but in terms of cost-effectiveness, it absolutely beats Institute 1 by dozens of streets!
At this moment.
The chief designer of Institute 1, Xiong Xingyu, also widened his eyes.
The plane he designed, in the aspect of cost-effectiveness he was most proud of, was actually crushed to the point where not even slag was left.
However, Xiong Xingyu felt no resentment in his heart.
There was only indescribable shock.
He knew better than anyone that he and Song Qi were creatures from two different dimensions.
There was absolutely no comparison...
Seeing everyone with an expression of having never seen the world, Song Qi shook his head helplessly.
This group of people looks so arrogant, why are they so ignorant?
"The price of 200 million is what I calculated after studying it for a long time!"
"You don't need to install the weapon system, it's a castrated version, the cost will be much, much lower!"
