Chapter 888 - 469: Is Expert Bai Mo Squandering Money? (2)

Chapter 888: Chapter 469: Is Expert Bai Mo Squandering Money? (2)

Netizens expressed strong opposition to this machine worth billions!

[We already have bulletproof materials, bulletproof glass, bulletproof fibers, bulletproof vests, stab-proof vests. These materials are very strong and sufficient, do we really need to invest billions to develop new materials?]

[The money is earned by Expert Bai Mo himself, why do you care?]

[Where did Bai Mo’s money come from? Isn’t it all social resources?]

[Have you ever wondered why only Bai Mo can sell Immortal-related resources?]

[Bai Mo’s money is earned through Immortal-related transactions permitted by the Immortal Committee. It’s also social resources, also social wealth, and shouldn’t be wasted recklessly!]

Huh?

Bai Mo frowned slightly, feeling that what the netizen said didn’t seem entirely incorrect?

The pharmaceutical factory’s funds were indeed earned through Immortal-related transactions permitted by the Immortal Committee.

Some netizens really understood.

[Expert Bai Mo is humanity’s spark-level scientist. What’s wrong with him spending a bit of funding? Isn’t that justified?]

[Have you ever thought about why only Expert Bai Mo can sell Immortal-related resources and make money from those tycoons?]

[This isn’t just a matter of permission]

[There’s also the issue of trust as a foundation]

[The Immortal Committee trusts Expert Bai Mo, the tycoons trust Expert Bai Mo]

[Moreover, the Immortal Technique resources in Expert Bai Mo’s hands are obtained through scientific methods, not Immortal techniques. That’s the key]

[Would you dare drink a soup sold by an Immortal Technique Master? Aren’t you afraid of Gu insects in it?]

[And Expert Bai Mo’s soup has Immortal effects, but it’s produced in a factory!]

[This is a unique foundation of trust, throughout Jiuzhou, there’s only one place like this, no franchises!]

Netizens chatted away, arguing passionately.

Some people spoke unexpectedly sensibly!

Others were just ranting.

And there are those who remain stubbornly steadfast!

[He does whatever he feels like]

[Whether his money comes from tycoons or eats up Immortal-related research funding, it’s all social wealth]

[He shouldn’t use social wealth to develop useless materials!]

Bai Mo frowned.

This kind of thing, right or wrong, twists and turns, is not easy to discern.

"Well... although this machine is for Fox Mountain development, it’s definitely worthwhile for the Human World."

He walked up to the super centrifuge, touched the metal shell, and smiled at the engineers.

"Is the debugging proceeding smoothly?"

The leading engineer returned the smile.

"Smoothly, but we need to check a few more times.

"In half an hour, we’ll be able to test run it."

Bai Mo nodded and saw factory director Chen Yuanlin entering with Master Chong.

Master Chong was walking while holding his phone, sending voice messages one after another.

"Oh dear, just one billion, not a big project. Expert Bai Mo has no plans to release the goods, talk again next month."

"Hahaha, President Wang, thank you for your kindness! But we have enough money, no need for support!"

"Booking ten bottles next month? Oh, sorry Old Li, I just checked that your points in our company are not enough..."

Seeing Bai Mo approaching, he immediately put away his phone, smiling and stepping forward, first giving a gentle hug to Bai Mo.

Bai Mo pointed to the super centrifuge not far away.

"Master Chong, could you start a live broadcast?

"Let everyone see the performance of our new material."

Master Chong chuckled and asked a few questions, then agreed.

New materials mean new sales opportunities!

He took out his phone to start a live broadcast, first sending the link to the company’s VIP group, then shared it massively to the contact list.

Back in the live broadcast room, he first changed the title.

[Live testing of Expert Bai Mo’s billion-dollar equipment]

Then he started walking around the machine, introducing it while circling.

"Hey, old brothers, young brothers, old sisters, little sisters, come see the good stuff!

"Guess how much this iron house is worth?

"Hahaha..."

People quickly came into the live room to criticize!

[Spending money as if it’s nothing, right?]

[Can you talk about where this money came from?]

Some were defending.

[Sprayers have sharp noses, found the spot already?]

[Could those with nothing to say start the rhythm?]

Master Chong was not bothered, happily introducing the instrument.

"This big guy is really amazing..."

...

Bai Mo stood nearby, watching as the workers gradually finished debugging the machine.

Taking out his phone, he saw messages from Chairman Chen Shu.

[Public sentiment is already being handled!]

Bai Mo smiled appreciatively.

[No need, a clear conscience fears no shadow]

He then saw messages from Hua Yuyue.

[Congratulations in advance to Expert Bai Mo for another achievement]

[Next time there’s such a plan, go through the process and report for approval, it can avoid a lot of trouble with public sentiment]

Hmm... this person’s attitude is a bit subtle?

Bai Mo replied casually.

[Let’s talk about it next time]

Then he heard footsteps, seeing Expert Zheng Yu from the Drone Center, along with Tian Xinghuo, laughing and chatting as they arrived together.

This was also arranged in advance.

Bai Mo went up to them, exchanged pleasantries.

Then he heard Zheng Yu complaining.

"Recently, I’ve always been receiving warnings from the Secret Brain Office, claiming the Dark World wants to assassinate me.

"Gosh, life’s impossible to live like this, hahaha.

"Fortunately, the Chairman assigned Committee Member Tian to protect me closely.

"Today, I’m here to see new materials and gain insights."

If the new materials are truly as Bai Mo said, light in weight and low in strength, they might be applicable to drones!

At that moment, several forklifts carried barrels of raw material solution to the centrifuge’s feeding port, pouring them in.

Zheng Yu watched the material flow through the pipe into the instrument, making a "whoosh" sound, appearing not very concentrated, feeling a bit puzzled.

"Expert Bai Mo, how much does this material cost per barrel?"

Bai Mo frowned slightly.

"Uh... roughly converted, the cost per barrel is thirty-two yuan and eight?"

Zheng Yu felt a pang in his heart... while expensive materials may not always produce good results.

But materials costing thirty-two yuan and eight per barrel almost certainly can’t produce anything good.

He awkwardly smiled.

"This... cost control is quite excellent!"

In the distance, Master Chong whimsically spoke to the live broadcast.

"I just overheard the big scoop!

"Haha, I’ll tell everyone, treat it as nonsense from me!

"Expert Bai Mo says the raw material processed in this instrument costs thirty-two thousand eight per liter!

"My goodness, I know Immortal Grass is expensive, but I didn’t know it’s this costly..."

A barrage of comments filled the live stream.

[Thirty-two thousand eight per liter? Is this how the money is spent?]

[Oh my, that’s heart-wrenching]

[I can’t even earn that much in a year]

But some tycoons were actually thrilled!

[Sounds like quality goods!]

[Master Chong, launch a new product, please]

[We’re willing to pay and help Expert Bai Mo share some research costs!]

Master Chong grinned widely, wanting to reply but was pulled away by a worker.

"The centrifuge is about to start; for safety, please step back a bit."

Master Chong quickly nodded.

Joining Bai Mo, Zheng Yu, and others, he moved outside the yellow caution line, tens of meters away, watching the instrument.

The large metal house gently vibrated, making "buzz" sounds, even causing slight tremors on the ground.

"The noise isn’t as big as expected?"

"Indeed relatively quiet."

"How long will it take this time?"

Bai Mo took out his phone, glanced at the real-time monitoring software, pondering for a moment.

"Not very long.

"About three more minutes should do it."

So, everyone stood afar, eagerly waiting, as the machine cooled down, amidst the buzzing, its discharge port began spewing material; didn’t take long before it overflowed a whole bucket!

In that metal bucket were clusters of fluffy, cotton-like matter.

Everyone crowded around, wide-eyed, seeing these fibrous things still steaming.

On Bai Mo’s shoulder, the Screwball Claw frowned... seemed like it hadn’t seen this at Fox Mountain?

Master Chong’s camera focused on the new material, bullet comments flooded in.

[What is this?]

[Is Expert Bai Mo entering the down jacket industry?]

[Is this new bulletproof fiber?]

[Looks like a treasure, Master Chong, I want to reserve it! Could I get two bottles of Snow Lotus Soup with it?]

Bai Mo turned to Tian Xinghuo beside him, smiling.

"Old Tian, are you armed?

"Come, fire a shot at what’s inside this bucket!"
