Gao Qi looked at Wang Ming Yuan. Wang Ming Yuan was stunned for a moment, then he turned around and left.
Thomas looked a little confused. Gao Qi smiled and said, "I'll be able to prove the investment prospects of this big project right away."
Of course, Gao Qi could prove it. An instrument that could detect spiritual power, even a fool would know how profitable it would be.
Wang Ming Yuan came back again. He went to the car to get the spiritual power detector, which took about ten minutes.
There was no need for PowerPoint, no need to tell a story, and no need to draw a big picture. He just put the things in front of Thomas and he had everything.
Seeing the crude thing made of a boiler pressure gauge and a pressure cooker, Thomas looked very surprised. Then, he said very carefully, "You're talking about … this?"
"This is it. Let me explain it to you. This instrument is used to detect people's spiritual power, and spiritual power is closely related to whether a person can be awakened. If your spiritual power is high enough, then there is a possibility of awakening."
Thomas opened his mouth and said, "How do I use it?"
Gao Qi nodded to Niu Lidong. Niu Lidong squatted down excitedly and put his hand on the instrument. Then, the pointer moved one bar.
"His spiritual power is the standard unit of this instrument. One bar is one bull."
Thomas was very surprised and said, "Bull? One bull? Newton? "
Wang Ming Yuan said proudly, "It's not Newton, it's Niu Lidong. In the English system, this is not a problem. In the Chinese system, we will specify that it's Niu Lidong."
"Uh, uh, why … Go on."
Wang Ming Yuan put his hand on it and said, "It's a very regrettable fact. Although I'm a genius, my spiritual power isn't high. My spiritual power is about 1.5 bulls, but I can call a paranormal for you. Basically, an E-class paranormal's spiritual power is above 50 and below 100, so this is why some people awaken as C-class or B-class paranormal. Because their lower limit is high, and of course, their upper limit is also high. According to my statistics, our paranormal's data before awakening is …"
"Ahem."
The one who coughed was Wang Ke. He coughed to prevent his father from leaking any more secrets.
Wang Ming Yuan said angrily, "Do you think I don't know the importance of academic confidentiality? Why are you coughing? Are you insulting my IQ?"
Thomas exhaled and said, "I understand. Can I try?"
Was there a better opportunity than this to test the mental strength of an A-rank Esper? Therefore, Gao Qi did not stop Thomas even though he knew that the detector might be damaged.
"Go ahead."
Thomas hesitated for a moment, but he still put his hand on it. After a while, the needle on the pressure gauge instantly turned to the limit. Then, with a hiss, the water column broke through the safety valve and sprayed out from the pressure cooker.
Thomas was shocked. He quickly got up and backed away. Gao Qi did not wait for him to ask and immediately said, "Unfortunately, your spiritual power is off the charts."
"What's going on?"
Gao Qi smiled and said, "That's how it is. This detector can't withstand the mental strength of an A-rank Esper, just like Bernhard's Arcana detector that went off the charts several times."
Thomas's face was solemn and curious. He said, "Is it different from Bernhard's device?"
"It's not the same. It detects a completely different kind of energy. This involves the fundamental secret of Arcana. Forgive me for not being able to explain it to you."
Thomas thought for a moment and said, "Is the cost of this device high?"
"The technology is simple, but the cost is high. But it's not that I can't afford it. The reason why I'm cooperating with you is that you have a mature industrial system, mature sales channels, and a certain reputation and credibility. Most importantly, cooperating with you will save me a lot of trouble."
"How do you want to cooperate?"
Thomas was tempted. Gao Qi smiled and said, "I'm the only one who can make the core parts. You're responsible for making the meter, responsible for selling it, and then we'll split the profits 20-80."
"The price depends on the cost. But if I give you 20% of the profits, well, I can accept it."
Gao Qi shook his head and said, "Wrong. I'll take 80% and you'll take 20%."
"Then the cost will be 80% for you and 20% for me?"
"No, you'll bear all the costs."
Thomas was stunned for a moment and said, "I know why you're not willing to rob. It turns out that you also know how to do this kind of business. Don't joke with me like this. It's impossible, absolutely impossible!"
If not for the high cost, Gao Qi would not have cooperated with Thomas. That was because he could not solve the problem of the energy core required to make the meter. He needed someone to take out the money and buy a large number of energy cores. Thomas had the financial resources and the strength to protect this business.
Gao Qi smiled and said, "You can take the cost and 20% of the profits. Believe me, this ratio is very fair. Because only I can make the core parts in this world. Even if I tell you the technology, the principle, and how to make it, you still won't be able to make the core parts. Just based on this, I can work with anyone. Don't you think City One is a good partner?"
Thomas was deep in thought. Then he realized that Gao Qi was right.
"Then …"
Thomas decided to compromise, but he tried to struggle with the ratio.
"Fifty-fifty, at least fifty-fifty. I really can't accept anything less than fifty-fifty. I'll be responsible for all the work from production to sales and even after-sales. You only need to provide the core parts."
Gao Qi shook his head, then smiled and said, "Let's split it 20-80."
Thomas said with a pleading expression, "Thirty-seventy, I'll take 30% and you take 70%! This is my bottom line! This is really my bottom line. "
Although it was indeed an exclusive business, Gao Qi didn't want to squeeze too much out of his partner. Therefore, he happily said, "Alright, thirty-seventy it is."
Thomas was stunned for a moment. Then, he said with joy, "You agree? Very good! "
"But the factory must be built here."
Thomas hesitated again. To Gao Qi, the deeper the cooperation with Apple City, the stronger the binding, and the safer his city would be.
Thomas hesitated, but after a while, he nodded and said, "Okay, but you have to give me all the sales rights. Also, you can't cooperate with anyone else, whether it's production or sales."
Gao Qi thought for a moment and said, "Well, I'll think about it."
At this moment, Anna suddenly swayed.
Anna was standing behind Gao Qi, so Gao Qi did not see it. However, when Anna swayed, he suddenly felt something and immediately turned to look at Anna.
Anna took a step forward. She looked a little panicked and said loudly, "I …"
Gao Qi was shocked. He knew about Anna's situation and knew that everything he said would be heard by Bernhard in a way that he did not know.
However, Gao Qi did not know what happened to Anna.
Anna started to stagger. She reached out to Gao Qi and said with a terrified expression, "Save me …"
