Chapter 149 Old horse, old horse

Prior to this, Musk was in dire straits. Both Space He became one of the millions of homeless people in the United States, and his worth of $1 billion was wiped out in the blink of an eye.

Now Musk has discovered that as long as he is willing to lower his head and be a dog, all the problems that have troubled him will no longer be a problem. Tesla has received sufficient funds and cold nuclear fusion technology, and Space X has also received sufficient funds and the aviation industry overlord Tesla. With the technical licensing of Tucker Group, these two major assets under his hands have been completely revitalized. With the backing of Osborne and Stark, he is now a rich man worth at least US$2 billion, so he doesn't have to worry about his future. The kind that won't go bankrupt.

"Thank you! Thank you, Master!" Musk sobbed: "No one has ever treated me like you, Master..."

Ma has been wandering for half his life, only regretting that he has never met his master. If he doesn't give up, Ma is willing to worship him as his adoptive father!

"Haha, that's an exaggeration. This is just normal business behavior." Bai Ye smiled and waved his hand.

"No matter what, I will always remember the young master's saving grace." Musk said excitedly.

Stark Group is the strongest company in rocket and satellite technology besides NASA. Space One step forward.

As a capitalist, it is definitely nonsense to say that Musk does not run a company to make money and is not interested in money, but he is also a person who has a little dream, such as new energy sports car, capsule high-speed rail, Mars colonization... People still have dreams. Yes, what if it comes true one day?

"Then you will work hard from now on, develop Tesla and Space

Bai Ye patted Musk on the shoulder and smiled.

In fact, Bai Ye’s investment in Space Joined Space X’s Starlink satellite program.

In fact, Starlink satellites are very scary. The complete Starlink network will include 12,000 satellites and may be expanded to 42,000 satellites in the future. The Starlink project is Musk's plan to send 42,000 satellites into space, orbit the earth, and cooperate with the U.S. military to achieve global surveillance without blind spots.

At that time, Motorola also came up with a similar "one-star plan", which was to build a communication system with satellites as the core in outer space, get rid of the constraints of ground signal base stations, and realize network signals in every corner of the earth.

This idea is indeed great, but it consumes too much financial resources. The budget for the 66 satellites planned to be launched by One Star is as high as 5 billion US dollars.

To build a complete network, more than 40,000 chips would be needed, which would cost at least US$3 trillion, not including the cost of damage. So the final result was that Motorola declared bankruptcy after spending nearly 10 billion US dollars. The reason was that it was too expensive.

By streamlining the satellite design to the extreme, Space Combined with the cheapest launch vehicle and multi-satellite technology that can launch 140 satellites at the same time, the overall launch cost of a Starlink satellite has been reduced to US$15 million.

That’s why Space

And Starlink not only has outstanding commercial uses, but more importantly, it has huge military value hidden behind it.

At least Bai Ye had seen with his own eyes the use of Starlink satellites in actual combat.

So when Osborne lacks satellite technology, Bai Ye is very interested in making up for one of his shortcomings through Space Something that feels great.

In the future superhero era, he can also use this to perfectly allocate resources and do what he wants to do.

That night.

Baiye took Musk, Ivan Vanke, Jordan and other executives to open a high-end IM together. The women who came to serve did not have an appearance fee less than 10,000 US dollars, which made Musk and Ivan... If Vanke and the others try to get in touch with each other, they will definitely work together in the future.

The four iron pillars of life: we carried guns together, we shared the same window, we shared our dirty laundry together, and we visited prostitutes together.

Let's exchange more feelings with each other.

Musk no longer had worries about the future of Tesla and Space How could we not let go of a bunch of children?

Played for one night.

When Bai Ye and others took Musk to JFK Airport the next day, except for Bai Ye himself, Musk, Ivan Vanke, Jordan and others all had white lips and dark eye circles.

"Master, I will definitely live up to your expectations!" Musk vowed: "Tesla and Space X will return you a big business miracle."

"I believe in your ability!" Bai Ye nodded with a smile: "If you have any difficulties in the future, just call and I will help you solve it! Even if the White House or the Pentagon wants to threaten you with anything, I will help you. solve."

move.

Musk was so touched. Young master, he actually wanted to fight against the White House and the Pentagon for me?

So, what's wrong with being a dog for the young master? Many people want to do it, but haven’t had the opportunity yet! When I return to Silicon Valley, I will make those of you who look down on me and think I am crazy take a good look at it. What's wrong with being a dog?

Jordan also held Musk's arm and shook it twice:

"Take care of yourself!"

"Everyone, please take care of yourself!" Musk said: "From now on, when everyone comes to California, I will make the arrangements. I guarantee that the fun will not be worse than last night! You all need to know that Hollywood and the Sacred Valley are both in California. Do you want any celebrities? ah?"

"Old horse, old horse!" Jordan covered his waist and became a little angry: "Why did you not arrange anything for me after I stayed in California for two days? I like a few female stars in the Sacred Valley very much. !”

"At that time, I was still wandering on the edge of bankruptcy. How could I have thought about arranging any entertainment for you?" Musk said with a wry smile: "Now I am fortunate to have the help of the young master. I didn't tell you that when you come to California in the future, you will not be allowed to leave holding on to the wall. , I am not entertaining you well."

Bai Ye and others watched Musk leave.

"Master, do you really plan to make this guy become the richest man in the world?"

Jordan asked curiously.

Bai Ye smiled and didn't answer.

He just let Musk return to his original position, which can be regarded as compensation for robbing him of Tesla and Space X.

In fact, Bai Ye doesn't count as stealing Musk's Tesla, because Tesla is not his in the first place.

——In the 1990s, an American automotive engineer founded AC Propulsion, an electric vehicle company in California. The company developed the T-Zero, a single-seat sports car with a lead-acid battery, which had a range of only 130 kilometers. Due to no sales, the company ran into operational difficulties.

At this time, Tesla's first founder, Martin Eberhard, appeared and invested $150,000 in AC Propulsion. Inspired by T-Zero, in July 2003, he and his long-term partner Mark Tarpenning, the other founder of Tesla, jointly established Tesla!

At this time, Tesla was positioned to develop electric sports cars for elites, but car development was very expensive. The two founders were both technical and did not understand financing. Tesla soon fell into an economic crisis. , on the verge of bankruptcy. Under the introduction of ACPropulsion, the two founders met Musk.

In 2004, Musk invested US$7.5 million in Tesla as a Series A investor and obtained a majority of Tesla's shares. At the same time, he put forward an additional condition: he would serve as Tesla's chairman!

After Musk joined, a series of infighting occurred. Founder Eberhard, who served as CEO, resigned in 2007, and Tarpenning, another founder who served as CFO, resigned in 2008. The two founders were driven out. Let’s go, Musk will take over as CEO and fully own Tesla!

It was Musk who “stole” Tesla.

Bai Ye just did something similar to Musk, just preying on the weak.

After seeing Musk off, Bai Ye drove to the Osborne Building, preparing to take out the entire set of technologies of the Green Devil Armor, put it into Venus Energy, and cooperate with Ivan Vanke to develop the Blue Devil Armor of the mechanical biological genre.

Musk, who was sitting on the plane, was also sorting out the documents Bai Ye gave him.

Including the open source of Tesla's patents and Space

"The young master is so awesome. He deserves to be the heir of the Osborne family." Musk sighed: "It's ridiculous that so many people treat the young master as a playboy. They are really blind."

Shaking his head, Musk continued to read the document.

For example, Tesla’s patent open source integrity agreement: if a car company wants to use Tesla’s patents for free, they cannot sue Tesla for infringing on their own patents.

In other words, this "deprives" car companies of their freedom to innovate on the basis of patents. Tesla can safely use patented technology that utilizes its own patent innovations, even if the car company does not open source the technology. Tesla cannot be held liable for infringement. This potential price is enough to scare away a large number of car companies that have mastered independent technology.

Large car companies have extensive and mature patent portfolios, and cooperation with Tesla will undoubtedly lose their "soul"; for some start-up car companies, they can obtain Tesla's mature patents that have been proven by the market. In contrast, Tesla Ra is also on top of the latest trends in technology at startup car companies.

Tesla’s patents are open source and serve multiple purposes.

Of course, the biggest beneficiary of FSD authorization is Tesla. As long as this open source agreement is implemented, Tesla will become a chimera of Apple and Google Android in the mobile phone market in the future. Are you afraid that you will not make money?

…

Bai Ye arrived at Osborne Tower.

Or should Felicia come to receive him? Norman Osborne's daily work schedule is seamless. Deciding to see him on the spur of the moment like Bai Ye must have made Felicia, the secretary, reschedule her time. , arrange reception.

She put on an OL uniform of a white shirt and a black silk hip-hugging skirt. The uniform was very slim and perfectly outlined Felicia's alluring curves. She was straight where she should be and curled where she should be. Her pair of slender and round pairs were Her long legs were wrapped in black silk stockings, giving off an air of OL workplace familiarity, which made people feel seductive, yet refreshing and capable.

"Felicia, long time no see, how are you doing?"

Bai Ye greeted warmly.

By the way, Bai Ye hasn't seen this girl for a while since he last invested in Felicia. He has been too busy recently.

However, he originally thought that Felicia would resign and run away after stealing the spider serum belonging to the Osborne Group, but Felicia was obviously very courageous and dared to continue to rely on the Osborne Group.

"Thanks to you, Master Baiye, I'm not dead yet."

Felicia said with a smile.

If she could still maintain a clear respect for Bai Ye before, but since Bai Ye caught her last time and chose to forcefully buy shares, it would be too difficult for her to continue to greet Bai Ye with a smile.

"Felicia, it seems that you still have grudges against me?" Bai Ye said aggrievedly: "But didn't we have a fair deal last time? I turned a blind eye to your stealing of the Osborne Group's property. I lost one eye and caused the Osborne Group to suffer huge losses. I was so guilty that I had insomnia for a long time, tossing and turning, and you still come to blame me... An honest person can't let you bully me like this, right?"

Felicia: "..."

Did I bully you?

Are you an honest person?

What the hell...

Felicia was so angry that her glass was even bigger.

His eyes were fixed on Bai Ye.

It's just that because the spider serum matter was kept secret, it was not easy for Felicia to quarrel with Bai Ye in a place like this.

"Forget it."

Felicia comforted herself:

"For the sake of him having left his mother since he was a child, don't get along with him."

"Master Bai Ye! I'm so sorry!" Felicia gritted her silver teeth and said, "Come with me, Mr. Osborne is waiting for you."

She shook her head and walked forward on her high heels, completely ignoring Bai Ye who was chattering and bullying her behind.

Bai Ye walked behind Felicia, looking openly at Felicia's astonishing curvature of her hips, while muttering:

"This little girl's physical fitness has also increased dramatically. Could it be that she stole the spider serum and used it for herself? She was also very lucky to withstand the genetic modification caused by the spider serum without any genetic collapse?"

"Then she is really lucky. She can be compared with Gwen."

Following Felicia, Bai Ye met Norman Osborn, who mentioned that he wanted to take away the Green Goblin's armor technology.

Norman Osborne had no objections.

As Bai Ye's business grows bigger and bigger, and the Osborne family's business territory expands, the Osborne family will also need a strong force to protect them. The Extremis virus + the Green Goblin armor are enough to defeat those who covet Osborne. The people in this family are all considering whether they can withstand the revenge of the Osborne family.

"What about the Extremis virus version 3.0 you mentioned before?" Norman Osborn asked another question: "Is there any progress?"

"Not yet." Bai Ye shook his head: "How can biological research be so fast?"

Even though Serol Stern is extremely talented, it is impossible to make breakthroughs with regard to the technology of Extremis Virus.

Norman Osborne must also know the difficulty of developing biotechnology in depth, but this research is too important and related to the future of the Osborne family, so he has to urge Bai Ye more.

Bai Ye smiled: "But there is no need to worry too much. There is an opportunity now to quickly mature version 3.0 of the Extremis virus."

"Um?"

Norman Osborn raised his eyebrows.

"The opportunity is Tony Stark!" Bai Ye explained: "He was shot through the chest by someone in Afghanistan. The broken shrapnel could enter his heart at any time and crush his heart valve. Now he relies on The Ark Reactor on his chest acts as an electromagnet to absorb shrapnel and survives. However, there is a drawback to this, that is, embedding the Ark Reactor into the body and functioning at all times will cause him heavy metal poisoning. If there is no solution, he will die in a few months. Facing death. I thought, maybe we can work with Tony Stark to develop the Extremis virus, so that he saves himself, we also save the Osborn family, and gain commercial benefits."

Norman Osborn: "I remember you said that the development of the Extremis virus itself had important contributions from Tony Stark. It was he who perfected the formula of the Extremis virus?"

"Yes." Bai Ye nodded and said, "So he will definitely be of great help in the development of version 3.0 of the Extremis virus. He has just returned to New York not long ago and is still enjoying his freedom. However, when he realizes My own dangerous situation is not far away.”

"I understand." Norman Osborn narrowed his eyes slightly: "When he discovered his problem and tried his best, he couldn't stop himself from dying step by step. Under the suffocating pressure and fear, If we lend a helping hand again, that guy will owe us Osborne another favor."

"Yes!" Bai Ye smiled and said, "That's what I think. Things given away before catching up are worthless. Of course, buyers have to come to us to beg us for a profitable business."

Norman Osborne is very satisfied. Bai Ye is already a qualified capitalist. Even if Bai Ye's business skills are not good, as long as he can grasp this capitalist mentality, the Osborne Group will be in his hands in the future. Where to go.

After leaving the Osborne Group, Bai Ye took the copied things and went to Venus Energy, where he began to discuss with Ivan Vanke about using the Ark Reactor technology to upgrade the Blue Devil armor.

This is not a simple matter. There are differences between biological armor and pure mechanical style. It takes a lot of effort to integrate them.

Been busy all afternoon.

evening.

He drove to Gwen's house, tonight was his date.

"Well, having too many girlfriends is also a problem. When you are working, you have to take time to arrange dates."

Bai Ye sighed.

Gwen's house.

Old father George's donkey face had long been pulled down, because Gwen was picking out all kinds of clothes, with a smile on her face, so George who came here didn't know what was going on?

My little cabbage is going to be eaten by pigs.

Gwen's mother Helen looked at her husband's appearance and said funnyly: "When the children grow up, this day will definitely happen! Do you remember when we were young? My father threatened you with a shotgun, but you still You secretly climbed over the wall of my house to find me on a date... You were very good at that time. We both tasted the forbidden fruit at a young age. Fortunately, I reminded you to use protective measures..."

"Ahem!" George coughed quickly and interrupted: "You are already a long time old, why are you talking about the past?"

Gwen picked around the room and glanced at her watch. The appointment time was coming soon. She jumped out of the room and said to George and Helen with a smile on her face:

"Father, mother, there is no need to prepare dinner for me tonight."

"Gwen, can you tell me that brat's name?"

George said in a gentle tone.

"No!" Gwen shook his head with a smile and said, "Don't think that I don't want my father. What are you thinking? After you found out the name, you wanted to check someone's household registration, right? Okay, it's almost time, I'm leaving. .”

"Remember to go home before ten o'clock at night!"

George shouted from behind.

Gwen jumped up and turned her back to George, making an "OK" gesture.

"well--!"

George shook his head and sighed.

I really want to blow the head off that brat who lied to his daughter.

He is not worried about Gwen being bullied. After all, he knows that his daughter is Spider-Woman, the kind who can blow up a locomotive with one fist. What man can bully her?

"Gwen, you are so beautiful!"

Bai Ye quietly drove a Mercedes-Benz SLS63 and came to pick up Gwen at the intersection. Looking at the graceful Gwen, he couldn't help but praise her.

"Hehe." Gwen giggled, looked at Bai Ye who was wearing a white suit and said, "Brother Bai Ye, you are also very handsome!"

Bai Ye smiled and opened the passenger door for Gwen:

"Get in the car."

In this way, Bai Ye took Gwen on a one-night date.

The two went to see a movie, went to the mall, walked on the street, and did things that couples should do.

Gwen was quite happy, her ambitions were modest and she was easily satisfied.

After a one-night couple's date, Bai Ye took Gwen to West 57th Street in Manhattan, the penthouse apartment that Bai Ye bought. This was also the place where Bai Ye and Gwen fell in love.

9 pm.

Bai Ye and Gwen were drinking red wine and chatting about some happy things, and the atmosphere of ambiguity became stronger and stronger.

When the atmosphere was in place, Bai Ye put his arms around Gwen's waist and kissed her.

Gwen's pretty face turned crimson.

Eyes blurred.

Obviously knowing what's coming next.

Sudden.

The watch on Gwen's hand vibrated.

Gwen woke up immediately.

Bai Ye and Gwen looked at each other. Gwen could only give Bai Ye a helpless look, and then took off her outer clothes, revealing the white ghost spider suit underneath.

Gwen's watch is a major alarm notification device, designed and manufactured by Gwen herself, in order to receive major alarm situations so that she, Spider-Woman, can help those in need.

"Brother Baiye, wait for me to come back!"

Gwen kissed Bai Ye, then shot out spider silk and left Bai Ye's penthouse apartment.

Bai Ye sighed, shook the red wine glass, and said, "How did the cooked duck run away?"

"So your girlfriend is Spider-Woman? This is really surprising!"

A pleasant female voice suddenly sounded from the top of Baiye's penthouse apartment.

"Um?"

Bai Ye turned her head in surprise, and saw a long white hair, a delicate body wrapped in a black tights, revealing graceful curves, crouching on all fours in the corner of the roof, with a malicious look... a black cat?

The corners of Black Cat's mouth raised, outlining an evil smile: "Little Osborn, you don't want others to know the true identity of your girlfriend Spider-Woman, do you?"

white night:"……"
