Chapter 76: A Specific Price!

He did not intend to offend anyone during the discussion between the countries.

Marina naturally knew what Sirius was thinking.

So when it was her turn, she opened her mouth.

“I know that the United States has always wanted Germany’s picometer semiconductor technology. Unfortunately, our country has already obtained it. Give me a price!”

Britain’s military strength was incomparable to the United States.

However, technology was a part of strength.

And this had been gained from Germany.

It was naturally good to be able to offset a part of the cash.

As for the picometer semiconductor technology, it was actually closely related to the chip industry.

Picometer was a unit.

Below micron was nano, and below nano was pico.

Breaking through nanotechnology was a problem that every country had been concerned about for more than a decade.

After all, this was a technological era.

The ability of the chip represented a part of national power.

Although Germany had secretly broken through, this secret was not kept secret for long.

Therefore, after learning this news, the United States immediately mobilized undercover agents to try to obtain this technology.

Unfortunately…

However, the British seemed to have taken the lead this time and got their hands on the technology.

Moreover, they had placed it on the table as a condition of the deal.

Hearing Marina’s words, Mr. President’s face shifted away from the screen for a while.

Obviously, he was discussing with the think tank behind him.

After a while, The President returned to the meeting.

“It’s worth 50 billion USD!”

“No! At least 200 billion!”

Her Majesty Marina immediately responded with a little anger in her voice.

“100 billion, no more!”

“This technology is not a mere step-up, but the change of an era. This technology transcends Moore’s Law…”

Marina continued to argue.

“I didn’t intend to elaborate on it, but it looks like I’ll have to. Even if you Brits get this technology, so what? With your semiconductor ability, is there any way to put it into production within two years? Only the United States can put it into production within a few months after we get it.

“You are offering a technology that you don’t need in exchange for Raymond’s technology. 100 billion is already a lot!”

The President was blunt.

“It’s precisely because you Americans can use it that this technology is worth money. If I give it to Japan, Mr. President, how much do you think they will give back?”

Marina said with a smile.

The Japanese Prime Minister, Yasuko, smiled as if he was trying to signal Marina.

If this technology was real, he would be willing to have Yasuko give out 300 billion US dollars.

But on the surface, he was probably out of luck.

Moreover, Britain had not discussed this matter with him in private before, which meant that the chances of getting it was very small.

“It could be worth 150 billion US dollars at most!”

“180 billion, no less. Mr. President, you know the value of it. And we are pressed for time, don’t waste too much of it.”

“Don’t worry about it, our people are already loading the materials.”

Chekov praised him in a monotonal, expressionless face, “You have guts! Looks like this ticket will be easier to get!”

“180 billion is fine, but I hope that you, Britain, will settle this matter within a day.”

Marina nodded in agreement.

After a while, she turned off the computer.

She did not want to participate in the rest of the matter.

Moreover, she had second-hand plans.

Would she believe what the United States said?

Absolutely not.

Therefore, she needed to quickly get her men into the United States.

This way, she could arrange for someone to go with the Americans during the handover.

Only then would she have some confidence.

“200 billion, plus 400 kilograms of uranium!”

After the British withdrew from the meeting, Chekov said straightforwardly.

“No. Absolutely unfair!”

“That’s it. I’ll think of a way myself!”

Chekov said this very easily.

But how could The President not understand the meaning behind it?

Russia’s national strength was not as great as it was a few decades ago.

However, they still had a lot of hidden strength.

And what they hid the most was their military strength.

Moreover, Chekov was a quick and decisive man.

If negotiations were to fall apart, he would really do something unpredictable.

He would do anything for his country.

Otherwise, he would not be called The Great Emperor by his people.

As long as he remained in power, he could lead Russia forward.

Until it regained its former glory.

After thinking for a moment, The president let out a sigh of relief.

To play on the safe side, he added a little more.

“200 billion dollars and 450 kilograms of uranium!”

It was almost the final answer.

Chekov also thought for a moment.

In the end, he agreed to this condition.

Was there anything advanced about Japan’s technology?

There were too many. There were too many.

Japan did not take much of the world’s patents.

However, Japan took a lot of patents that could make money and made a lot of money they did.

Logically speaking, Japan had the strength to negotiate with the United States.

Unfortunately…

Japan developed steadily by completely relying on the strength of the United States.

If the United States was not a big tree waiting on them would be a disaster.

There were also the Chinese.

And even the face of South Korea could kill them.

After all, Japan did not have an army, only a so-called self-defense force.

At least on the surface, it was impossible for Japan to develop its military.

“President Ao Guanhai, we also have the technology…”

“Yasukuni, you should just take the money! You can develop the technology all you want, I won’t stop you.”

In fact, in Ao Guanhai’s eyes, Japan was the American ATM machine.

Moreover, it was the kind that did not require a card or password.

If he asked you to give it, you had to give it.

Not giving it?

Believe it or not, I’ll smash it right away.

After all, the American troops stationed there were not to be trifled with.

In the end, Japan still agreed to take the money.

Similarly, the United States also took the money.

The meeting ended very quickly.

However, Sirius received a piece of intelligence from The President.

“The Ross Consortium is already secretly developing nano-neutrino batteries. Their laboratory is located…”

Sirius was not surprised at all when he received this piece of information.

After all, Gayle Gadot was a member of the Ross Consortium.

It would be ridiculous to say that they did not have any ulterior motives.

However, this piece of news gave a glimmer of hope to Sirius.

Perhaps… it was not necessarily a bad thing to fully support a country at such a critical time.
