Chapter 58

The name of this system is a bit... suggestive...

Zhou Zhou Zhou Yonghui looked at Song Qi with a strange expression, his toes curling in embarrassment as if he were digging out a three-bedroom apartment...

To the side, Wang Zhen and the others were stunned again.

The Super Ultimate Reaper Missile from before was already "chuunibyou" enough, what the hell is this Sakurajima Mai!

Aren't you ashamed!

You two-dimensional otaku!

Forget it.

Better not dwell on these details... ===== CHAPTER 122 =====

"But..."

"Engineer Song, with so many weapons on this passenger plane, our airline simply has no way to purchase it..."

"The flight paths of various countries wouldn't allow such a large threat to enter their airspace, would they..."

"..."

Just then, the representative from Northern Airlines spoke up.

With Song Qi’s gem in front, the new giant plane developed by Xijing Institute 1 suddenly went from a sweetheart to a nuisance.

It no longer had any appeal.

The hearts of several airline representatives were set on the giant plane Song Qi had modified.

But the key problem was that while the plane Song Qi developed was good, no matter how you looked at it, it didn't look like a civil airliner!

This giant killing machine that could take on an entire military region by itself—even if Song Qi agreed to sell it to them.

The military region wouldn't agree!

For a moment, all the representatives were 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.

To the side, Song Qi also rested his chin on his hand, lost in thought.

After a long while.

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 can't be guaranteed!"

"If it gets blown down by a nuclear missile in the future, I won't be held responsible!"

Hearing Song Qi say this, all the representatives’ eyes lit up.

Holy crap!

This weapon system can be removed?

Isn't this the dream plane for every airline?

Large space, fast flight, and an intelligent driving system.

Most importantly, it’s so sturdy!

A terrifying defensive capability that can take a missile hit and retreat unscathed!

If this isn't safe, then there are no safe giant planes in the world!

The airline representatives’ expressions 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 f***ing trying to snatch it; Southern Airlines already has the most planes, Northern Airlines offers 1.1 billion USD!"

"..."

The airline representatives were so excited they were about to fight.

A new round of bidding had begun!

Song Qi blinked in confusion.

Is it really worth fighting this hard for...

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 divine machine, just the advertising effect alone would be unimaginably huge!

Moreover, the plane Song Qi built was indeed worth that price!

To the side, Wang Zhen watched the scene before him.

He was smiling so hard his mouth wouldn't close.

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 bought for 200 million Long Country currency."

"You’re offering 1.1 billion USD, aren't you just being a sucker!"

Song Qi said with a straight face.

Wang Zhen, to the side, hurriedly tried to cover Song Qi’s mouth.

But the words were already out.

They couldn't be taken back.

Everyone stood there like wooden chickens, as if struck by lightning.

And it’s in Long Country currency?

A giant plane advanced enough to bully the entire world, and the cost price is only 200 million Long Country currency?

That means, with the money to buy one Boeing plane, you could build two of these awesome giant planes?

What kind of international joke is this!

Deng Lao, to the side, also said with an expression of disbelief.

"Song Qi!"

"You’re not joking, are you!"

"This giant plane, the cost is really only 200 million?"

You have to know.

A new type of giant plane developed by Institute 1 cost 80 million just to build!

Selling it for 100 million was already considered a conscientious price!

But the giant plane built by Institute 1, compared to Song Qi’s, was simply industrial waste!

Don't look at Song Qi’s high price; in terms of cost-effectiveness, it absolutely blows Institute 1 out of the water by dozens of streets!

At this moment.

The chief designer of Institute 1, Xiong 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 nothing.

However, Xiong Xiong Xingyu felt no resentment in his heart.

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’s "I’ve never seen the world" expression, 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 researching for a long time!"

"You don't need to install the weapon system; it’s a castrated version, so the cost will be much, much lower!" ===== CHAPTER 123 =====

"Plus, this giant plane, one hundred percent—even down to a single screw—is domestically produced!"

"Not a single bit of foreign technology!"

"With the domestic industrial chain, we are fully capable of manufacturing it! Therefore, the price will be much lower..."

Listening to Song Qi’s explanation, everyone was stunned.

Song Qi’s words seemed plain, but the gold content contained within was unimaginable.

A fully autonomous and self-developed industrial chain?

This is a completely different concept from so-called "independent research and development"!

Independent R&D just means the core parts are developed by yourself, but you still buy foreign things!

Who builds a giant plane where even the screws are domestically produced?

In the current era of economic globalization, even the Free Country can't do this!

Moreover, for such an advanced plane, all the materials, all the technology, are actually from the Long Country itself?

What about all those technologies that were "choking our necks"?

What about all those patented designs from Boeing?

Did they all just vanish into thin air?

This can no longer be described as a miracle.

It’s simply a divine feat!

At this moment, in everyone’s eyes, Song Qi was simply a god!

The scene was silent, with only the sound of people swallowing their saliva from time to time.

Don't look at how easily Song Qi says it, but everyone knows that to reach this step.

The effort put in would far exceed everyone’s imagination.

Although Song Qi looks like a slacker, in terms of dedication to the country, he is truly a peerless national treasure.

Deng Lao looked at Song Qi with a gratified expression, a faint, kind smile always on his face.

With his status and position, he rarely felt surprised by young people like Song Qi.

But today, Song Qi’s appearance truly surprised Deng Lao!

"Song Qi!"

"Thank you for your hard work!"

"You must have suffered a lot to build such an advanced giant plane..."

"On behalf of the Long Country, I extend my highest respects to you!"

"The greatest of heroes, for the country and the people!"

"Forging swords for the nation! A peerless national treasure!"
