Marvel Rise of Lord God

Chapter 166: Buy a data center

Views:

"Jarvis, set up an isolated network and prepare for the upgrade." Tony said after sitting down at the console.

"Yes, sir, level three isolation has been established..."

Jarvis divides its network architecture into three levels, with the most important core part being the first level. If problems arise during the upgrade, the external structure can be discarded to prevent deterioration.

"That's not enough, Jarvis, start backing up the data. Back up all the data three times and store them separately." Tony went on. Although he believed that there would be no problems with the things in the main god space, necessary caution was still needed.

"Sir, there is insufficient space in the data center to perform multiple backups. Please add hardware equipment," Jarvis responded.

Over the years, Jarvis has accumulated so much data that most people can't even imagine. Although the data center where Tony is now is large, it is still not enough.

"Buy it. Just buy the nearest newly built data center!" Tony started spending money without saying a word.

"Sir... I'm sorry, we contacted the other party a month ago, and they didn't plan to sell the data center." Jarvis reminded.

"Then buy their company. I remember that the company is not that big. It seems to be a small company with less than 10 billion US dollars." Tony said after thinking for a while.

"Yes, the nearest data center belongs to Dream Space, with an estimated market value of US$7.9 billion. The largest shareholder is Mr. Masayoshi Son of SoftBank." Jarvis projected the company's public information.

After taking a look at the report, Tony curled his lips in disdain. What kind of bullshit company is this? It's valued at 7.9 billion, but it's just a sub-landlord. Its annual loss is over 100 million US dollars. It's a dream space, it's really dreamy.

Years of experience allowed Tony to see at a glance that this company did not need any data center at all. It was building this just to connect with the Internet and indirectly increase the company's market value.

“Contact Masayoshi Son directly and tell him I have a big business to discuss with him.” Tony said, leaning back in his chair.

Soon, Masayoshi Son's call was answered through Jarvis.

"Mr. Tony Stark, long time no see. I heard that you want to acquire a data center?" Masayoshi Son's hearty voice came from the phone.

"Make your offer directly. If you don't want to sell it alone, you can sell the company to me as well. I will buy it at a 20% premium over the 7.9 billion valuation." Tony said generously.

Since joining the main god space, the stock price of Stark Industries has soared, especially after he became the leader of the Pioneer Alliance, various forces have tacitly pushed up the stock price. Now the total value of Stark Industries has more than doubled than before.

"No, no, there is no need for a premium. That company is full of bubbles. As for the data center, how about I give you $50 million directly?" Masayoshi Son said quickly.

Tony frowned. What did this guy want to do

The value of this data center is indeed around 50 million US dollars, but its most important value lies in its geographical location. Normally, how could a data center be built in a downtown area? The land price here is ridiculously expensive, especially since it is only a little more than three kilometers away from Tony's current location.

Masayoshi Son is willing to invest without making any money, so he must have other ideas, otherwise SoftBank would really become a philanthropist.

Tony is still a bit troubled when thinking about it. This Dream Space has not been listed yet and is still in the process of financing. If it is listed, he won't have to deal with these old foxes. It's too troublesome.

"What do you want to do? Just tell me." Tony asked. With his current position, he was qualified not to play tricks with Masayoshi Son.

"Haha, Mr. Stark is really quick to speak. Let me be frank. I know that Mr. Stark has a certain power in that place. Can you sell me an invitation letter?" asked Masayoshi Son.

"Impossible!" Tony rejected him without even thinking.

An invitation letter to the main god space on the market has reached 10 billion US dollars, but it is still out of stock. The certificates Tony obtained through his pioneer status are all given to various national forces.

"I'm sorry for being rude. Those strengthening potions should be enough. I just need the purchasing qualification." Son Masayoshi lowered his demands and said.

"Strengthening potion..." Tony pondered for a moment.

It's true that some of Umbrella's potions can be used on ordinary people, but they usually have a tacit understanding and won't buy or sell them casually. Who knows what the other party wants to do? If they want to reverse engineer it, it will be a big trouble.

Don't get me wrong, Tony is not worried that these idiots will be able to crack Umbrella's technology. So many top players on the Trail Blazers' side can't do it, so they are even less worthy of it. What Tony is afraid of is that they will cause some weird things again, which will be a big trouble.

"I will select three potions for you to use, but you must come to the Stark Industries headquarters to use them." Tony gave his request.

"No problem, it's settled then. I will transfer the key and ownership documents of the data center to Mr. Jarvis immediately." Masayoshi Son said readily.

After hanging up the phone, Masayoshi Son sighed deeply. The world has really changed. There are suddenly more things that money cannot buy. He pressed the call button to call his secretary.

"Go and have someone transfer all the data centers under the Dream Space to Mr. Jarvis of Stark Industries as soon as possible, the sooner the better!" Masayoshi Son said.

After the secretary left, Masayoshi Son rubbed his temples. Just in terms of the US dollar, he suffered a huge loss this time.

The idea of building data centers to boost valuations was his idea. The cost of building these five data centers was about 300 million yuan, but Tony took 50 million away, and he still has to thank them. Is there any justice in this world!

This negative emotion only lasted for a few seconds, and then Masayoshi Son couldn't hold it back and laughed out loud. The three strengthening reagents, not to mention other things, at least could greatly improve his physical condition. Being ten years younger would be like a piece of cake. It only cost a few hundred million dollars to buy the purchasing qualification. It was worth it, really worth it.

Two hours later, Tony looked at the five keys sent by Masayoshi Son with a puzzled look.

... Didn’t you just buy one

That’s right, the money is just one’s own money, but what is the situation

Buy one get four free

Never mind, it’s just a small amount of money anyway, just give it away if you want.

"Jarvis, start data backup. After the backup is completed, build a high-level defense network for this new data center, and then prepare for the upgrade." Tony took out the nearest data center and pointed at it.

The keys to the other four data centers were lying pitifully in Jarvis' database, and it was estimated that no one would be interested in them in the short term.
