Chapter 184: Huge profits

Views:

On the second day after returning to Binhai City, ambassadors from several countries came to visit the Army Ant Company, all for the seismograph.

As China has built its first true earthquake early warning network, the popularity of seismographs has swept the world. Countries that have suffered huge earthquake disasters want to establish an earthquake early warning network.

The exorbitant price of seismometers caused public outcry. Netizens in many countries have criticized the Army Ant Company for monopolizing the market, but the official government dare not say anything more.

It is useless to protest or sanction Marching Ant Company at this time. There are not many overseas markets for army ants. Sanctions have little impact on army ants. Once army ants are offended, it is impossible to establish an earthquake early warning network.

In order to reduce losses when an earthquake strikes, all countries can only pinch their noses and accept the inhumane price of the Marching Ant Company.

Zhao Min walked into Chen Mo's office with the folder in hand.

During this period, all her energy was focused on discussing the seismograph with representatives from various countries, until today, it finally came to an end.

"The export of seismometers has been negotiated. Here is the complete list and contract. New Zealand ordered 16 units, Chile 14 units, Indonesia 47 units, Mexico 35 units, and island countries 25 units. We paid the US$100 million for the last damaged seismograph. , 24 units in India and 20 units in Turkey, for a total of 181 units.

We have over $9 billion in revenue from the production of these seismometers. There was an earthquake in Nepal yesterday and the damage was considerable. Today their ambassador has contacted us and the order is being negotiated. There should only be two or three units. "

Chen Mo was surprised when he heard this number.

Converting 9 billion U.S. dollars into Chinese currency, there are nearly 60 billion U.S. dollars, and a seismograph costing more than 3 million U.S. dollars is almost negligible. This is absolutely a terrifying profit.

"Isn't it shocking? This is the huge profit of monopoly." Zhao Min said calmly: "Our customers are based on the country, and the money is only a small amount."

As Zhao Min said, their customer is a country. Although the money is huge, any country with a little economy can spend it. When money is spent in this area, the opposition parties in those countries dare not object. After all, it is for the benefit of the people, and to oppose it is to go against the people.

"The United States, Germany and Russia also want to buy, but their orders are not large. Each country only has two units. I have not responded yet. They want to import seismometers and copy them themselves. In terms of technical confidentiality, is there no problem?" Zhao Min asked.

"Don't worry about technology leaks. As long as you have money, anyone who wants it can sell it." Chen Mo said: "The core system algorithm has been encrypted and only I know it. If I don't get the most critical algorithm, it will be soulless to copy it." body.

"I understand." Zhao Min nodded.

After Zhao Min left, Chen Mo focused on the computer again. He only knows about the company's business occasionally. Zhao Min is responsible for the specific matters, so he doesn't need to worry about it: "Mo Nu, continue to organize the information."

"Okay." Mo Nu said.

After returning to the company from the capital, there was nothing else to do. Chen Mo stayed in the office area and sorted out the supercomputer data, which was almost completed.

Supercomputers can perform large data volumes and high-speed operations that cannot be processed by personal computers.

Although the components are not much different from the concept of ordinary computers, the performance of supercomputers is unmatched by ordinary computers.

It has powerful data processing capabilities and is characterized by high computing speed and large capacity. Because supercomputers are special, they have many special peripheral devices and require specialized large-scale computer systems.

Mo Nu can solve computer system problems, so he doesn't need to worry.

The characteristics of supercomputers just meet the needs of artificial intelligence.

It is mostly used for cutting-edge technology research. If it can become Mo Nu's shelter, Mo Nu's computing speed will definitely be more terrifying and it will help him even more.

Now he is working on superconducting computers.

Superconducting computers use superconducting technology to produce computer components. Its switching speed reaches several picoseconds, its computing speed is a hundred times faster than current electronic computers, and its power consumption is only one thousandth of that of ordinary supercomputers.

This means that after completion, the superconducting computer does not need to occupy a large area and consume a lot of electricity like a supercomputer, but it will also have powerful computing capabilities.

Research on superconducting computers is very important for the future. Once superconducting computers come out, Mo Nu's calculation speed will be even faster in future technological research.

Chen Mo didn't stop until Mo Nu reminded Xiao Yu to enter the office area.

"It's time to get off work. Ruo Xi is waiting below. We are going to go shopping and buy some things. Do you want to come with us?" Xiao Yu said.

"Okay." Chen Mo picked up his coat and took Xiaoyu out of the office area.

As soon as he arrived downstairs of the company, he saw Li Ruoxi waiting. "Hello boss, hello boss lady." Li Ruoxi smiled and saluted the two of them.

"Stop making trouble and let's go." Xiaoyu's face turned red and he pulled Li Ruoxi towards the car where Wang Hai was.

The commercial square is full of various activities, the decorations are festive, and there are many more people than before. Chen Mo, Xiao Yu and Li Ruoxi are one of them.

Chen Mo wore a mask for fear of being recognized by others. This was Xiaoyu's request because the last time I went out with him, many girls chased me for photos, which caused a lot of trouble.

With the rise of the Army Ant Company and the introduction of the seismograph, Chen Mo's reputation in the country reached its peak. Being famous is a whole lot of trouble, being recognized wherever you go.

"What gift do you want for the New Year?" Chen Mo asked.

Li Ruoxi's eyes curled up, she pulled Xiaoyu and gave her a look. Xiaoyu immediately shook his head. Seeing the strange eye contact between the two, Chen Mo was confused.

"What's the matter?"

"It's nothing." After being signaled by Xiaoyu, Li Ruoxi shook her head hastily: "Big boss, you have to prepare this gift yourself to be sincere. If she told you to buy it and give it to her, it won't be a surprise."

Chen Mo tilted his head and muttered: "That seems to be the case."

"You should think about what women like, but you haven't given it to her yet." Li Ruoxi said with a smile.

"Ruoxi, don't talk nonsense." Xiaoyu's face turned red and he looked at the store: "Ruoxi and I are going to buy some girls' supplies. Do you want to come with us?"

"Huh? Let's say goodbye." Chen Mo glanced at Li Ruoxi next to him and shook his head hurriedly: "You guys go buy it first, and I'll buy something too. After you buy it, call me." Li Ruoxi is not here, but he may still be together. Now How embarrassing to go.

"Okay, then go and see if there are any gifts. We'll be there soon." Xiaoyu pulled Li Ruoxi and walked towards the underwear store not far away.

After the two left, Chen Mo looked around, thought for a while, and walked in one direction.

Zhao Yanyu stood by the counter and looked quietly at the door of the store. There are many customers in the jewelry store now, but they are all taken away by other colleagues. She can only look forward to the arrival of the next customer.

The New Year's Eve is approaching and it is the peak season. During this time, there are many customers. They all hope to earn more this month and get some share for the New Year.

Suddenly, when he saw a figure appearing at the door, Zhao Yanyu's eyes lit up, someone was finally here. Just seeing that the other party was wearing a mask, Zhao Yanyu hesitated for a moment and then greeted him.

"Hello, sir, do you need anything?" Zhao Yanyu looked at Chen Mo.
