Extraordinary Genius

“Feng, you are too smart. Let’s talk about the prices of these technologies. This engine technology is worth...”

Alexander read out the prices from a document but did not show Feng Yu the document. Feng Yu is sure Alexander’s prices are much higher than what was written in the document.

Feng Yu calculated the total in his mind, and it is over 5 billion USD!

The construction cost of a medium carrier battle group will not be so expensive. Furthermore, many of the technologies are outdated, and some can even be replaced.

The aircraft carrier technologies are the most important. The construction cost of an aircraft carrier is around 1 billion USD, and 5 billion USD is too expensive for these non-exclusive technologies.

Belarus’s GDP is only around 3 billion USD. Are they trying to make a fortune from this deal?

Although Feng Yu has money and is willing to spend it, it is different from wasting his money!

“Alexander, do you think I am rich and looks like a fool? You should know from Kirilenko that I don’t like to waste time in business negotiations. I will always let the other party profit from the deal. But it will be too much if you are thinking of getting more than 100% profits.”

Alexander replied calmly. “Feng, you are wrong. Our technologies are worth this price. We had spent lots of funds to develop these, and I had not include inflation into it.”

You all had spent a lot to developed these technologies? Fine. Even if you had spent more than 5 billion USD to develop these technologies, you all are also not selling them to us only. These technologies are useless to you all.

Also, you all had these technologies for decades and had built several aircraft carriers. The value of these technologies should depreciate.

Alexander, if you are still going to speak like this, I think I will contact Ukraine’s Brother Ke. We have deal with them more than once. Maybe we might not get all the technologies we want, but the prices will be reasonable.”

“Feng, you can’t fool me. Ukraine will never sell you these technologies.” Alexander confidently replied.

“Are you sure?” Feng Yu asked with a smile.

Alexander suddenly lost his confidence after seeing Feng Yu’s expression. Ukraine is close with China and has military cooperation. If it weren’t for the US interference, Ukraine would not sell an empty hulk to China.

Ukraine had made lesser profits from their deal, and they also lack funds urgently. All former Soviet Union countries are very poor now.

Russia, followed by Ukraine and Belarus, had benefited the most from the former Soviet Union. The rest of the countries, like Lithuania, etc., did not get anything. But Lithuania is by the sea, and they have lots of ship technologies. If Feng Yu contacted the other countries, he might get all the technologies he wants.

When that happens, Belarus’s technologies will be worthless.

That’s right. India also wants these technologies, but India is close with Russia and Russia can sell their old carriers. They might not need these technologies as they also have many top engineers.

“Feng, even if Ukraine is willing to sell the technologies to you all, you all will also not get the full package from them.”

“But it will be much cheaper.” Feng Yu replied.

“Alright. What price do you think is reasonable?”

“I think 2 billion USD is quite reasonable.”

“Impossible!” Alexander almost jumped up. How can so many technologies be worth only 2 billion USD? He wants to tell Feng Yu that even if China invested 5 billion USD, they might not develop them.

Sometimes, technologies cannot be developed is not because of the research funds. They still need the top talents! The former Soviet Union has the top scientists and engineers.

“Feng, even if these technologies have depreciated, but it will not depreciate by so much. We are not selling apples in the market.”

Feng Yu shrugged his shoulders. “But I only have so much cash. It is either I buy everything, or I will not buy it at all. I can use 2 billion USD to pick some technologies from Ukraine.”

“You are the World’s Richest Man. How can you only have 2 billion USD?”

“The World’s Richest Man will also not have so much cash. Most of my assets are in the form of shares, and these cannot be liquidated so fast.”

“We can also accept shares.”

Feng Yu shook his head. “Alexander. Although these technologies are not bad, we are not in a hurry to get them. Also, this information will continue to depreciate next year, and my companies’ shares are still rising. Do you think I will use an appreciating share to exchange for your depreciating technologies?”

Alexander is dumbfounded before he realized Feng Yu almost fooled him. These technologies can increase China’s military power and shorten their gap from the US. The value of these cannot be measured by money.

“Feng, you better give me a better offer. I cannot and don’t dare to accept this price. Even if you don’t have sufficient cash, I believe someone else can help you.”

Alexander is representing his father for this deal and is also getting political credits. If he can sell the technologies at a good price, he will have good career prospects. But if he cannot get a good price, not only will his father be affected, his career will also be affected.

“How about you tell me a reasonable price? I might borrow some cash from Kirilenko if it is acceptable.”

Feng Yu pretended to be not anxious as he can get it from other sellers. Alexander is troubled as not many people can afford these technologies.

Furthermore, Feng Yu is right to say these technologies are depreciating, and it is useless to hold on to them.

Belarus also needs this sum of money urgently. Although China also needs these technologies, they can spend money to develop them.

“Feng, I can sell all the carrier battle group technologies at a package price of 4 billion USD!”

Package price? Feng Yu is tempted, but he will not agree immediately. He still needs to discuss with the rest first.

“Everything for 4 billion USD? It is still expensive. Let me consider about it first.”
