Su Yan's extravagance not only shocked his agent.
Everyone around who heard this trembled, their wine glasses shaking in their hands.
10 billion, just for a moment of indulgence...
Even Bill Gates wouldn't dare to be so bold!
But there was no helping it, Su Yan was just that bold!
Occasionally, when the mood struck him, he simply wanted to do something different... For example, right now, he wanted to invest in a TV series called "Heavenly Speed."
In the Marvel Universe, because he was surrounded by too many powerful enemies, Su Yan had no time for anything else; he had to quickly improve his strength to ensure he
wouldn't be casually obliterated by the god-level figures in the Marvel Universe... Now that he had finally returned to the Main Universe, there weren't so many monsters and gods, nor immortals flying everywhere.
The most crucial thing was that he had earned over two hundred billion in one go, how could he not spend some of it?
As the saying goes, it's hard to please an old master with a paltry sum.
Investing 10 billion to create a truly high-reputation, awesome special-effects fantasy blockbuster, letting Hollywood also witness the charm of the grand Eastern fantasy world!
"I'll have people handle this matter. You just need to strictly adhere to my two conditions, understand?" Su Yan said.
"Understood, understood!"
The agent quickly nodded, "Please rest assured, our company guarantees you that we will absolutely not use any meaningless traffic stars nor will we casually use five-cent special effects to deceive you. Everything will be guaranteed to satisfy you completely!"
"Also..."
The agent leaned closer and whispered, "If you have any specific actors in mind, please feel free to tell me, and I will definitely arrange it for you!"
It was no joke, this was a genuine 10 billion!
And the investor was Su Yan!
Celestial Technology, the CEO of Future Invasion Phone.
For such a big financier, they naturally had to handle him with utmost care and try their best to fulfill any requests.
Let alone a small request like specifying actors, even if it meant having their artists accompany Su Yan for something, they would not refuse.
"Let Director Zhang Yimou cast the roles first! After he decides, just let me know, and I'll add my input."
Su Yan said calmly.
"Alright! Leave this matter to our G Huang Entertainment, there will be no mistakes. You can rest 1.2 million percent assured!"
The agent's smile was as fawning as could be.
Immediately, Su Yan continued to converse with others while the agent, bowing and scraping, rushed out to call his boss.
When the boss of G Huang Entertainment heard that Su Yan was actually going to invest 10 billion, he was so shocked he almost dropped his phone.
But after the shock, he was naturally ecstatic. A huge investment of 10 billion, and he didn't even care about making money... Especially since the investor was Su Yan, where could you find such a good thing?
Without another word, the boss immediately made a call. Even though it was after work hours, he gathered all the top executives of G Huang Entertainment to the company for a meeting, quickly putting the "Heavenly Speed" project on the agenda!
...
In terms of entertainment, Su Yan was just acting on a whim, spending some money, hearing some buzz, and enjoying the show.
So, he didn't care much about it.
He only needed to send someone to oversee the 10 billion expenditure, and then wait for the grand premiere of the "Shrouding the Heavens" TV series.
"Hmph~"
"It seems this body still isn't good enough; I must quickly get a serum to strengthen and reshape it!"
In the Bugatti Veyron, Su Yan sat in the passenger seat, rubbing his slightly aching temples... In the driver's seat, a holographic projection of a virtual butler appeared to be driving.
But in reality, this virtual butler didn't physically touch the steering wheel; the car was still being controlled by J.A.R.V.I.S.'s autonomous driving system.
After the banquet, there were simply too many people coming to toast, and even though Su Yan's subordinates helped block a lot of it, and Su Yan himself refused many toasts, he was still overwhelmed by the alcohol and felt a bit dizzy.
"J.A.R.V.I.S., have the materials for controlled nuclear fusion already been put on the agenda?"
"The meteorites I asked you to keep an eye on last time, if there are any suitable ones now, you can arrange for people to acquire them directly! As long as a meteorite is detected to contain the elements I need, we must secure it!"
"Additionally, regarding the materials for X-Healing Factor, you can start instructing those Black Market Merchants... The conditions remain the same: double compensation and double the price for all materials if found within the stipulated time!"
The Future Invasion Phone was already selling extremely well.
Although the growth rate of pre-orders wasn't as fast as at the beginning, according to the current momentum, reaching 400 million in pre-orders within a week was absolutely not a problem!
400 million pre-orders, truly terrifying.
Even Apple would need several years of accumulated sales to reach that figure.
And this was only the pre-order volume for one week of Future Invasion, and the data would continue to increase with time.
With a profit of 3000 yuan per phone, 400 million means a staggering 1.2 trillion in profit.
Without a doubt, in one week, Su Yan could legitimately and grandly ascend to become the undisputed World's Richest Man.
Therefore, Su Yan was no longer limited to just gathering materials for one technology; he was simultaneously gathering materials for multiple technologies.
Controlled nuclear fusion was, of course, a given.
It was also the most crucial factor in solving the energy problem of Su Yan's future technology empire, and enabling the birth of the Iron Suit.
Wolverine's X-Healing Factor also had to be put on the agenda... In terms of complexity, this thing was even harder to realize than controlled nuclear fusion.
One must understand, this was truly the technology that led to immortality!
How many generations had sacrificed huge sums for immortality, but ultimately failed to achieve it?
Moreover, immortality referred to lifespan and did not mean one could not die; if one were secretly attacked, they would still be finished... But the X-Healing Factor was something that could withstand atomic bombs, making it even more terrifying than immortality.
Therefore, to achieve it, first, immense energy was required, second, complex formulas, and finally, element synthesis methods that even brilliant scientists like Stark, Shuri, and Doctor Pym in the Marvel Universe didn't know.
On the point of X-Healing Factor, the 1.5 technology mastered by Su Yan had already surpassed the Marvel Universe.
The members of the Avengers still didn't know that Su Yan had privately cultivated a group of loyal death warriors.
And each of these death warriors had been injected with a controllable X-Healing Factor by Su Yan.
From this, it was clear that Su Yan at that time had thoroughly analyzed the X-Healing Factor and directly mass-produced "Wolverine."
But to create the X-Healing Factor, the required elements were not found on Earth; one could only rely on luck from meteorites.
No one knew how many years those meteorites had flown in the universe, what kind of cosmic energy rays had shone upon them, or what kind of time and space they had traversed. Their internal elements were far richer than those on Earth. 2
Therefore, all preparations had to be made in advance!
