Three days later, Eric brought Ulysses and the little leopard to Kenya, accompanied by another person, his beautiful secretary Jennifer.
Since he inherited the title and inheritance of "Daddy Charles", he has become a celebrity. It's okay to walk around in the United States, but when he goes abroad, it is easy to attract the attention of others, especially Hydra and S.H.I.E.L.D., they can Always staring at him. And he wasn't sure how long he would need to go, so he didn't dare to fly there secretly, so he could only take the plane honestly.
The group soon landed in Kenya on the pretext of going abroad for inspection.
A billionaire, who was also a European aristocrat, came to Kenya, a small and poor place, for an inspection, which attracted considerable attention from the local government. The business department sent several officials, both large and small, to pick him up.
Eric acted like a carefree playboy, his eyes full of contempt. Jennifer was so angry when she saw his expression. She was already busy enough in the company, and now he was asked to come to Africa. , don't you know how poisonous the African sun is to girls' skin?
"My President, can you tell me now what the purpose of our coming here is?" Jennifer couldn't show off her face to Eric in front of the Kenyan officials. She had a smile on her face the whole time, but when she returned to the hotel, her face was expressionless. Pulled down immediately.
"Dear Jennifer, I saw that you were working too hard at the company, so I took you out on vacation. You didn't appreciate it. It's so sad!" Eric pretended to wipe away a few tears and sounded more aggrieved. How wronged.
"Huh!" Jennifer took a deep breath into the sky, closed her eyes to adjust her emotions, and tried not to get angry.
"Okay, Jennifer, Kenya is one of the birthplaces of mankind. It has a very long history. If we go around tomorrow, we might be able to find prehistoric human ruins or something."
"Mr. Eric! Our maglev experimental track has been successfully built, and the maglev train has also been built. The first trial run went very smoothly. As long as we accumulate more data, we can report it to the railway department. As long as it passes the review, we will have We may have received an order! Our time is very precious, and we don't have extra time to inspect prehistoric human ruins here!" The president's assistant was really angry this time, and scolded Eric.
"Haha, of course I know this, but Jennifer, you need to take a longer view." Eric stood up and gave Jennifer a glass of red wine and said: "Our magnetic levitation technology is the most advanced in the world, and room temperature superconducting materials are more advanced. It's the only one in the world. We have no rivals in the United States and the world!"
"Of course, we..."
"Listen to me," Eric waved his hand, "The maglev train is a very promising project. It will have a huge impact on the traditional transportation industry. However, no country will reject this impact because it It represents the future!"
Eric stretched out two hands, spread one out and said: "There is no opponent!"
He spread his other hand and said, "The government will definitely support it!"
Putting his two hands together and holding them tightly, Eric stared at Jennifer, "What do you think our future will be like?"
"We will dominate the global railway industry!" Jennifer stood up excitedly. She has fantasized about this future countless times!
"No!" Eric shook his head slowly and spread his hands again, "We will die miserably!"
"Why?" Jennifer exclaimed.
"Because we don't have enough strength to swallow this piece of cake, and we are too greedy to swallow the cake. In the end, we can only be starved to death! At its peak, there were as many as 6,000 railroad companies in the United States! Now after consolidation and annexation, there are nearly 6,000 railroad companies in the United States. Qianjia, the largest six companies including UP and BNSF, control nearly 80% of the railway business in the United States. You compiled this information for me and you should know better than me. "
"Of course, but our technology..."
"Our technology is decades ahead of theirs, and our prices are cheaper than theirs, but we have no connections!" Eric sighed, "The U.S. government will cooperate with us, and we will not be short of orders. No matter how powerful they are, they will not be short of orders." It's not strong enough to influence the White House, but they will stumble in other places, such as raw materials!"
"Steel, aluminum, copper, they can't control these basic materials, but some special materials are hard to say." Eric took out a small gray metal ball and placed it on the table. The ball emitted light under the sunlight. Dazzling metallic luster, "Like this, niobium!"
"Niobium?" Jennifer carefully picked up the small ball and put it in front of her eyes to observe carefully, "Is this niobium? I have never seen it. People in the technical department said that this thing is very cheap, but it is synthetic Rancher No. 1 Very important raw material."
"The price of niobium is indeed very cheap, only a few dozen dollars per pound, but this material is very niche, with only five or six companies selling it in the United States, and we are very dependent on this material. Without this material, we would We can't build Ranchel No. 1! As long as we control these five or six companies and say hello to the customs, we will have no niobium to use!"
"So serious? I have to ask them to order more!" Jennifer jumped up hurriedly, picked up the phone and was about to make a call, but Eric hurriedly stopped her.
"It's useless. How much can we order now? Its output is there. Even if we pay a price several times higher, we can't order much. It's far from being able to meet our future demand! What's more, niobium is not a example!"
"What should we do?" Jennifer's pretty face was full of anxiety.
Eric laughed and pointed to the scenery outside the window and said, "This is where we are now. Look in that direction, Mount Murima, where there are a lot of niobium mines, and the mining equipment here is still at the level of forty years ago!"
Speaking of this, Jennifer's eyes suddenly lit up, standing by the window and looking out. Eric came behind her and pointed in another direction, "Look in that direction, Tamota, there are barite; in that direction, Gilgil, one of the largest diatomite mines in the world, and over there..."
Jennifer's eyes kept moving with Eric's fingers, sniffing the smell of Eric's body, and her face flushed slightly. Although this man looks cynical, he always surprises people and makes people curious about him.
…
The next day, Jennifer was left to accompany the local business officials on the inspection, and Eric left the city with his "bodyguard" Ulysses and his "servant" Little Golden Leopard. He paid a high price to buy an off-road vehicle and headed towards the prairie to inspect the prehistoric civilization ruins…
