In fact, from the very beginning, Leon decided to fund this "cosmic ray" research project proposed by Reed.
Although, he knows that this is a worthless investment project.
However, what he cares about is not the benefits of the research institute, but the person Reed.
To be precise, the superhero team of "Fantastic Four" was born because of this project!
For Leon, money is just a bunch of numbers.
However, if these numbers can make him and the Fantastic Four on the line, then even if it is more money, Leon is willing to spend it.
You know, what is the most precious thing in this dangerous world?
superhero!
Especially superhero like Reed Richards, Tony Stark and Bruce Banner, who have high IQ and can develop various black technologies independently, are the backbone of protecting the world!
Although the entire Avengers small team has talents in all aspects. However, Leon felt that in order to face the future alien invasion or Thanos army, all the forces that can protect the earth must be united.
He didn't want to recruit Reed, who had become the "Fantastic Four", into Avengers to grow the entire team.
However, befriending the Fantastic Four will be a good start…
. . .
With the disappearance of the three-dimensional projection, Reid's entire research project presentation finally came to an end.
Next, is the moment to follow the trial…
Reed, Oliver, Susan…
The eyes of everyone present were all on the sofa, and the brown-haired man was waiting for his answer.
Especially Reed, in the look of expectation, he vaguely revealed his inner anxiety.
Reed is very confident in his research.
How confident is he even?
In order to go to space and study cosmic rays at close range, he not only invested all the funds on hand into the construction of the spacecraft, but also mortgaged the entire Baxter Building to the bank!
However, the distrust of NASA, the rejection of Stark Industries and the Osborn Group, made his strong self-confidence suffer a major blow.
Had it not been for his girlfriend who worked in the Nirvana Group to suggest that he come to the Nirvana Group to have a try and see if he could get the investment, he might have declared bankruptcy.
In a sense, the Nirvana Group is his last straw…
If you don't succeed, you will become benevolent!
At this moment, Leon, who was silent for a moment, finally opened his lips slightly and said:
"I have to say, your entire presentation convinced me."
"This project, if it is what you said, is really a study of far-reaching significance for humans…"
Having said this, Leon couldn't help but pause, then spread his hands and smiled:
"So, why not?"
This sentence, as if in Reid's heart, a stormy sea appeared.
Reid couldn't help taking a step forward, and asked slightly excitedly:
"You mean, you are willing to support this research?!"
"Yes! All research funds and resources required for this experimental project will be provided by Nirvana Group."
After speaking, Leon gave Oliver a look.
Oliver understood immediately, nodded slightly, took the conversation, and then added:
"For this experimental project, we will send Miss Storm to work with you."
"As long as you want, you can borrow the experimental base of our company, and the scientific research personnel will call you at will. You can discuss all matters related to the experiment with the specific person in charge, Miss Storm, in detail."
"Any request, we will do our best to satisfy you…"
"Do you have any other questions?"
After listening to Oliver's words, he tried to suppress the excited Reed, swallowed, and then asked:
"In return, what do we need to pay?"
Before Oliver could answer, Leon on the side could not help but stand up and said first:
"Thirty percent of the profit, and priority for the next cooperation."
Upon hearing this condition, Reid was stunned and couldn't believe his ears.
This condition is not excessive, but very, very generous!
After all, the research funding gap for this project is very large.
The total cost of equipment, personnel, etc. adds up to at least 7.8 billion U.S. dollars.
In other words, Nirvana Group paid almost 80% of the funds for the entire project, but only required a 30% return on profits!
Such a business, it sounds like there is not much profit at all…
Although it was too generous for Leon, it was a bit surprising. However, Reed was not stupid enough and said to Leon, "The profit is too low. Would you like to take more?"
He is not as rich as the other party.
After getting the investment, he has to complete the entire research project before he can apply the product and generate profits.
The building has also been mortgaged in the hands of the bank, so it can make more profits, so why not do it?
In any case, Lyon's generosity is obvious to all.
Reed, Ben, and Reed's girlfriend Susan all had a good impression of this young chairman of the Nirvana Group.
Regardless of petty profits, it is indeed a promising young man who controls a huge group at a young age…
"make a deal?"
Faced with Leon's extended right hand, Reed did not hesitate.
The two big hands were held together tightly.
"For the future, happy cooperation!"
"Happy cooperation!"
Allow Susan Storm to send the two of Reid out of the office, leaving only Leon and his confidant in the huge office.
"Your Excellency, I have a question, I don't know if it should be said…"
Picking up the coffee on the coffee table and taking a sip, Leon half-squinted his eyes and said in a deep voice:
"Do you think that the profits we ask for are a little too low?"
Hearing this, Oliver couldn't help but nodded.
"According to our investment ratio, this project, even if we take 60% of the profit, they will not refuse. Besides, the risk of this research project is too great. NASA, Stark, Osborn are all The unwillingness to invest a lot of money and resources into this project is because of its uncertainty, which may lead to the entire project…"
Facing Oliver's doubts, Leon's face was calm, but he just replied faintly:
"What I care about is not the profit of this project…"
Before Oliver understood the meaning behind this sentence, Leon turned around and suddenly said:
"Oliver, I need you to investigate something."
Hearing this, Oliver was taken aback for a while, hiding his curiosity deeply, and then said:
"You say."
In the next moment, I only heard Leon's tone, vague:
"A man."
"The name is…"
"Victor von Doom!"
