Chapter 12: US$40 billion funding gap

The first method of making palladium metal is to make it from ore by dry method.

The second method is to use the byproducts generated in the production process of copper and nickel from copper and nickel sulfide ores as raw materials and use wet smelting to make it.

The cost of a palladium metal reactor is even less than one percent of that of a new element reactor.

It is suitable for large-scale production, and it is also more conducive to Carl to obtain higher profits when selling a large number of steel battle suits to the outside world.

When Carl secretly carried out large-scale industrial production demonstration of steel battle suits.

With the tacit cooperation of major forces in the world, the waves caused by the explosion of Sidi Moussa Prison quickly subsided.

The existence of the information cocoon made most ordinary people quickly forget about the explosion.

Except that Russia was still relentless and had to find the mastermind behind the explosion. As a result, the KGB's elite agents were sent to investigate for three days and three nights, but they could not find even a useful clue.

In the end, it could only be left unresolved, and at most a few painless protests were made in diplomatic statements.

Time entered October.

The Marvel world was still calm on the surface.

The opening ceremony of the Stark Industrial Expo held by Iron Man Tony Stark was a complete success, with tens of thousands of visitors received every day.

Tony Stark also successfully survived the poisoning crisis without the obstruction of the villains and successfully synthesized new elements.

Nowadays, people often see Iron Man wearing Mark VII steel armor, flying around in the sky over New York.

The Thor I incident also happened smoothly, and a small town in Old Bridge, New Mexico was destroyed by an unknown robot.

The news was quickly suppressed by SHIELD and did not cause much waves.

No one knows that in a corner of the earth, in the memory extraction laboratory of the Umbrella headquarters.

After Ivan Vanko completed his mission as a tool man, he was abandoned by Carl and sent to see God.

After all, it is better not to let too many people know about good things like the Ark Reactor.

Tony Stark is unlikely to hand over the Ark Reactor technology.

Then the Ark Reactor technology in Carl's hands is equivalent to the only one.

He was excited just thinking about the profits of the monopoly of the Iron Man suit.

It seems that his T virus plan can be implemented ahead of time. Although the prosthetic transformation technology and bionic human machine technology are good, it is too wasteful to exchange them with system points.

Using the Iron Man suit can also achieve the results that Carl wants.

Therefore, he plans to wait for the right time to implement the T virus plan in advance.

Early in the morning, the sun was shining, and Sokovia began to snow lightly in early winter.

The outside world has dropped to minus 3 degrees Celsius, but the Hive Base is still warm as spring.

Carl just woke up on the soft big bed in Wanda's bedroom, and the Red Queen brought him good news.

Umbrella's Iron Man suit has been successfully finalized and can be mass-produced at any time.

Carl inspected the intelligent precision manufacturing production workshop at the ground Umbrella headquarters.

The scientist who presided over the design and finalization of the Iron Man suit was Johannes William. He previously worked at Stark Industries and had designed and manufactured the Iron Man suit for the villain Tony's good uncle Obadiah.

William was specially poached from Stark Industries by Carl at a high salary. At first, he had some small thoughts.

After Carl installed the chip controller behind his head, he became completely obedient.

Now William bowed his head respectfully, followed Carl who was inspecting the smart workshop, and introduced him to the three finalized steel suits.

"Boss, there are currently three types of steel suits designed. The first is the police-use C1 steel suit.

This suit uses special stainless steel as the main armor material. The characteristic is that the price is extremely low, and the cost is only 100,000 US dollars."

"After testing, this armor can perfectly defend against the attack of small-caliber bullets. The disadvantage is that it cannot completely defend against the attack of tungsten core armor-piercing bullets and large-caliber bullets."

"The second model is the B1 steel suit for sale, which uses titanium alloy with strong defensive performance as the main material. The characteristics are moderate cost and strong combat capability, and the cost is one million US dollars.

"The third model is the A1 steel suit for self-use, which uses expensive gold-titanium alloy as armor material and has extremely strong combat performance.

The advantage is that the defense capability is very excellent. After testing, it can perfectly withstand the frontal bombardment of small missiles and armor-piercing shells.

The disadvantage is that the cost is as high as 30 million US dollars. "

William did not hide anything and introduced the differences between the three types of iron suits to Carl in detail.

After listening to the introduction, Carl had an idea in his mind and asked about the cost of the small Ark reactor.

He knew that after the big forces bought his iron suit, they would definitely carry out transformation and upgrading, so in the later stage he even planned to sell the finished small Ark reactor directly.

The original text is available at 6 # 9 @shu/bar!

William, wearing a white dust-free work suit, immediately replied when he heard the question: "The cost of a small Ark reactor is 50,000 US dollars, which is the lowest price for industrial mass production."

Carl nodded with satisfaction and issued an order: "The news of the iron suit will not be announced to the public within three months. You should give priority to manufacturing 20 A1 iron suits.

Then start to mass-produce the police-use C1 iron suits, and manufacturing 500 B1 iron suits will be enough. "

"Understood, I will manufacture the iron suits that Boss wants on time! "

William, who looked mature, answered respectfully. He already understood what Karl meant.

Now Umbrella is still in its infancy. It will be the best time for Umbrella to officially step onto the world stage after the construction of the seven new secret bases around the world is completed.

Under the strict management of the Red Queen, Carl does not have to worry too much about the precision intelligent production workshop.

He is more concerned about whether the funds on the Umbrella account are sufficient.

Nowadays, Umbrella needs a large amount of funds to build a new base, and it also needs a lot of funds to buy raw materials to manufacture steel suits.

In addition, with so many bases established, people must be sent to manage them.

Although clones are easy to use, seven secret bases require at least hundreds of thousands of clones.

Even if clones can be produced on a large scale from embryo culture balls, it will cost a lot of money to produce so many clones.

Now Umbrella's funding gap is as high as more than 40 billion US dollars.

After so many years of selling low-priced arms, Carl still dare not go too far. The price of some high-tech arms is similar to that of the international arms market.

In this way, although his profit is high, there are not many orders.

Unless he breaks up with all the arms dealers in the world and sells high-tech arms at a low price in large quantities.

Otherwise, the monthly profit of the Umbrella Group would hardly change.

The monthly profit is about 3 billion US dollars.

The reason why Carl can make such a large profit is that the cost of selling arms is much lower than that of others.
