Interdimensional science and technology starting from cyberpunk

The person next to the old captain was indeed a representative of Tingwei Company, named Moses Sherman.

But he is not entirely a representative of Tingwei Company.

"Dad, please take a seat. I am Sherman Skye, the person in charge of Mackinac Concept Stock of Tingwei Company."

When Lier heard this, he raised his eyebrows: "Wait a minute, what is the person in charge of concept stocks? What is your position in the company?"

Sherman straightened up after hearing this and glanced quietly at the old captain next to him. The latter's eyes told him not to try any tricks.

So he scratched his head: "He is the one responsible for marketing this stock. Hey! Brother, I will tell the truth, this is what happened."

The first is the concept of concept stocks.

Everyone knows that general performance stocks require good performance from companies or organizations as support, but concept stocks are different.

To put it bluntly, the more popular the concept associated with a concept stock is, the more valuable it will be. To put it simply, it is for speculation.

Mackinac Concept Stock is just that kind of stock - it has little value in itself, it's more like a gamble on how long this concept can be popular.

So why did Tingwei Company do this?

Sherman was a little embarrassed when he said this: because Tingwei Company initially thought that this concept would only be popular for a while.

A flowing legend and an ironclad company will not end well if they go against giant corporations.

If these big brothers die suddenly, the stock price will fall back as it has risen, and the company may suffer losses between the rise and fall.

But seeing the rising money makes people drool.

The genius CEO of Tingwei Company thought: Since it is so suitable for speculation, it would be better to separate out a concept stock.

This idea is good, and the good thing is that it caters to the ideas of stock traders from all walks of life at that point.

People at the bottom felt that Mackinac was indeed awesome and could easily be incited by media and television programs, and then bought stocks.

However, people with a lot of money thought of this situation first, and also felt that such a stupid gang like Burger King, who bought and sold stupid big shots, would soon be wiped out in Night City. They basically had the idea of ​​​​cutting a wave of leeks.

When those with a lot of money and those at the bottom have entered the market and speculation has started, the slow-responsive middle-level managers see the hot current situation of concept stocks and start to make a decision - enter the market!

The middle class, which is always slow to enter the market, is booming now.

This wave is a win-win-win situation, and all three parties think they can win.

Then Sherman, a novice, was sent to take charge of this concept stock.

Some people think Sherman is a victim because concept stocks will explode sooner or later, while others think Sherman has made a lot of money relying on this business.

But Sherman really thinks that Mackinac is awesome, or that the Lille trio are awesome.

He felt that the rise of Tingwei Company must be attributed to this matter!

In any case, as things developed later, it proved that Sherman's vision was getting more and more accurate, and Tingwei Company began to realize that something was wrong:

Mackinac has had the same performance for so many years, and at such a stupid price, how awesome is it?

They immediately looked for their own reasons and found that they had not done a good job in strengthening Mackinac, and the car's performance had not improved.

So where is the awesomeness?

Of course the eldest brother is awesome.

As a result, the strategy gradually changed.

Instead, the CEO of Tingwei Company began to be jealous of Mackinac's increase, and wondered if he could bring his own company to a similar increase, so he found the old captain.

The plan that once asked them to replace the Magic Dog armored vehicle was the plan of the top management of Tingwei Company.

The second modification of the Mackinaw was Sherman's suggestion: the car was still a Mackinac, as long as people could tell that the car was not a normal Mackinaw.

Everyone can tell that the new Mackinac is more than just a Mackinac, but what is so awesome about this car? The market doesn’t know either.

However, what can be confirmed is that these technologies are all Tingwei's technologies, so Tingwei's stock price can still rise slightly.

This kind of increase is relatively stable.

Of course, only Tingwei Company still knows about it, and there is actually no real breakthrough technology.

If anything, converting a broken pickup truck into an armored vehicle is indeed a bit unusual.

As for how Sherman came here, Lear probably guessed:

Why are Mackinac concept stocks so popular? It's not because of what happened in Night City.

Night City is his base. Anyone who is not too brainless knows to stay here and keep an eye on the situation.

Sherman finished speaking and took a sip of his drink: "Anyway, that's probably the situation."

"Are you having a hard time?" Lear said suddenly.

Sherman's hand froze slightly as he drank the drink.

Sherman, who was told about the current situation by Lear, instantly turned into a bitter face. The distortion of his expression made Lear wonder if this guy's entire face had been replaced with an expression control prosthetic--

"Yeah! Life is really hard! Dad, you don't know, Tingwei's top management is so rigid!

Even if you make a small profit, stick to your basics and don’t be greedy. It’s so damn funny. Don’t they have a clear idea of ​​whether they are greedy or not?

I have told them many times that if the company wants to make major breakthroughs, it must be bold and boldly introduce new technologies. With such a good promotion opportunity, you can get 10 points for every penny you spend.

The effect of 100 cents! At this time, I was still timid, so I might as well go home and sell sweet potatoes! "

Sherman talked a lot in rapid succession, as if the old captain asked him to tell the truth and opened up his chatterbox.

Generally speaking, there is one core idea: Tingwei's top management is completely stupid and does not spend money when it is time to spend money; they say they are not greedy, but in their hearts they want to make a steady profit.

How can such a good thing happen?

It deserves to be that this once largest daily car manufacturer in the United States is now half-dead and resting on its laurels.

The old captain kept snickering as he listened, as if he thought this guy was quite interesting.

Sherman finished speaking and took another sip of his drink: "There are many people who don't like me, but I still bring some good players.

Dad, if you want anything, just say it, and I will definitely get you something good.

By the way, your car has been repaired. It's in good condition and like new. Let's take a look. "

The Mackinaw could be seen through the glass on the second floor, but Lear had already inspected it just now.

He thought for a moment and said, "Then you should have many engineers on hand?"

Sherman nodded: "Many of them are not that good, but they are definitely good players. At least they can understand the technology in their hands, and they can prepare you for any adjustments you want."

This is not nonsense. After all, the heavy damage suffered by Mackinac last time could not be repaired by ordinary engineers. These engineers do have something to offer.

So Hu Lier touched his chin and said: "Since you have said this, I want the design drawing of the car engine, you won't refuse to give it to me, right?"

Sherman froze.

The engine technology used by Tingwei can be regarded as the core technology of the entire vehicle.

An engine with a full 2,400 horsepower is stuffed into the car, and the thrust-to-weight ratio is already quite good. So what does Tingwei want to do when designing this engine?

Of course, I want to build a floating car to taste the sweetness of the ultra-high-end market.

It has always been one of the visions of various automobile companies to drive down the price of aerospace vehicles and open up the cost-effective aerospace vehicle market. Unfortunately, aerospace vehicles are not that simple.

In the end, Tingwei came up with this monster engine, and I didn’t know how to do it. Fortunately, it was used this time.

The Mackinac engine modified from the experimental aerodynamic vehicle engine involves the company's internal secrets, but right in front of him is his father

Sherman suddenly felt that there was a dilemma between loyalty and filial piety.

Seeing how embarrassed he was, Lille suddenly said: "Actually, I was thinking that Mackinac's car is not bad, and Adecado is interested in buying some new cars.

But the design of these new cars must meet our requirements. Should your company accept such orders? "

"Customized?" Sherman was stunned for a moment, then of course he accepted.

But generally customized services come from major companies. Does Zhewander have that strength?

Leal knocked on the table and said: "There are more than 100, 200,000 people in Adecado in the wilderness. If all these cars are replaced with new ones, do you think how much it will cost?"

What did you just say? Wealth comes from danger, Sherman. I think you are better than Tingwei Company, so I gave you this benefit. "

"Done!" Sherman slammed the table angrily: "Done! Dad is right, wealth can be found in danger!"

Lear patted the boy's shoulder meaningfully: "Don't act like I care about your engine.

Let me remind you, now I am giving you this opportunity because of your honesty. Your brother will be responsible for this production matter.

You can also get a share of the pie, but..."

Lear glanced at the old captain, who rubbed his hands.

Now the old captain is not a simple black car middleman. He also has the Impala Automobile Company, which he obtained at a low price.

It is productive.

Lear continued: "As for us, our business stall is bigger than you think. Think about it, hundreds of thousands more people in Adka will be driving Mackinac in the Bad Land in the future.

Mackinac's cars are endless, passing through sandstorms and conquering the bad soil. I'm afraid you, a concept stock, will have to turn around one day.

You have to remember that these things are not given to you by Tingwei Company, do you understand? "

Sherman swallowed. He was a corporate dog. What kind of pie had he never heard of?

But there are always some people whose thoughts can't stop wandering when you talk to them face to face.

Either shivering or immersed in the pie drawn by the other party.

Leal is this kind of person: Although Sherman is normal on the surface and does not show too many other emotions, those are controlled without revealing anything by relying on the mental drafts and prosthetics that were prepared in advance.

It's strange that he didn't panic when he was really facing such a lawless maniac.

So when faced with Lille's unexpected proposal and pie, he felt that what he said was indeed reasonable.

Sherman nodded: "Understood."

Just when he said these words, he felt a little magical.

He was selected by Tingwei Company to run the Mackinac Concept Stock.

As a result, he was suddenly sent by Mackinac Company to undercover Tingwei Company - although there is no such thing as Mackinac Company yet.

Sherman was still thinking about it next to him. The old captain gave Lear a thumbs up and said silently: "High."
