Chapter 187 Accepting New Challenges

Originally, Mason was apprehensive about Wu Tao's Chinese background, but now that he didn't care about the deal, all doubts in his heart faded away, and he made a final decision: "Deal!"

"OK, deal!" Wu Tao reached out and shook Mason.

Mason added with a smile: "Wu, the first batch of ten multi-legged intelligent robots, if the application effect is satisfactory, our base should continue to order in the future."

"Oh, NONONO!" Wu Tao reminded with a smile: "Lieutenant General Mason, the price will not be so low for subsequent additional orders. In fact, the cost of each of these ten multi-legged intelligent robots is as high as 300 million. U.S. dollars. Therefore, I did not make a profit from you in this transaction. This time it is just a useful attempt for our cooperation, and I also thank Lieutenant General Mason for his trust."

"Really?" Mason shook hands again quite unexpectedly and said, "Thank you so much, Wu."

Wu Tao thought to himself: "Of course it's fake, otherwise, how could you be so grateful to me?" '

Immediately afterwards, the two parties began to discuss the contract. Mason first said: "Wu, I must remind you that so many retired military helicopters can only be used as civilian helicopters within the geographical range of the Hawaiian Islands."

"Of course!" Wu Tao said without hesitation: "I will register them all under the name of Tianyu Engineering and Construction Company, and they are limited to use within the state of Hawaii. However, you must provide training on driving skills. Multi-legged robots can only be used for the overhaul and maintenance of the Pearl Harbor aircraft carrier group, and are absolutely not allowed to be provided to Tianyu's competitors for research and use."

Mason's blue eyes flashed, he laughed and said, "Sure!"

Half an hour later, the two parties formally signed the contract.

According to the contract, as a deposit, the Pearl Harbor base will first provide [-] speedboats to Tianyu Engineering Company.As for the remaining helicopters, their manufacturer, Sikorsky, will carry out professional overhaul and maintenance, and after the arrival of the intelligent overhaul robot provided by Tianyu, they will be provided to Tianyu Engineering Company.

In addition, the helicopters provided by the Pearl Harbor base have at least ten years of civilian life.The service life of the speedboat can be shorter, but it must also reach five years.This is a requirement for the quality of the items to be exchanged. If they come back with scrap copper and rotten iron, a minor repair in three days and a major repair in five days, it would be more cost-effective to buy a civilian helicopter directly.

After the agreement, Wu Tao got up and left.After saying goodbye to Lieutenant General Mason, he left the base building accompanied by Simon.

The convoy returned to the previously agreed place, and not long after, the film crew returned.Judging by the expressions of An Qi and Lu Nan, there shouldn't be any problem in the negotiations on the location of the movie.

So the group got in the car and returned to the Honolulu villa.

Under Wu Tao's suggestion, the crew members refrained from going out, but chose to stay in the villa for vacation.

Fortunately, the facilities and scenery of the three villas are all top-notch. Not only can you see the endless sea view, but also have a large heated swimming pool, and there are all kinds of drinks and food in the villas, which will not look too monotonous.

After several hours of dealing with technical solutions and company affairs in the study, Wu Tao just came out towards the evening.The big-screen TV in the living room is broadcasting the news in turn, and the stand is KIKU TV station.

Outside the terrace, Leng Wei, who was wearing a purple one-piece swimsuit, and Liu Bei, who was wearing a red one-piece swimsuit, were lying on a beach chair, as if they were having a good dream.

Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared on the TV, and Wu Tao, who came back from the bar with a bottle of water, was immediately attracted.

I saw Eliza said with a serious expression: "Dear viewers, this station has just received the news that the Ebola variant virus from Africa has been infected in many countries around the world. He died within hours, and medical experts expect the mortality rate to be 24% or more! The World Health Organization has urgently raised the risk level of the Ebola variant virus to level three!"

Wu Tao's heart trembled. Since the media has made it public, it means that the epidemic has become too serious to contain.

The next moment, the TV camera turned and turned to the voice of the male anchor behind the scenes: "According to the incomplete statistics of the US health organization, more than [-] infected patients have been found in the federal territory. At present, these people are scattered in various states. They recently All have been to Africa or had contact with Africans."

"... In this regard, the Hawaiian state government has already taken preventive measures to strictly screen and manage the flow of passengers entering and leaving the country. Therefore, if you are identified as a suspected infected patient, please actively cooperate with the work of the state government and consciously accept treatment and observation. and isolation."

At some point, Liu Bei had already stood behind Wu Tao, and said with great gratitude: "Boss, thanks to your reminder, everyone didn't go out."

Wu Tao said apologetically: "It's a pity that we can only be wronged and spend time in the villa."

"It's okay, it's just like a resort, it's not boring at all." Liu Bei said happily.

Leng Wei walked in from the balcony with a graceful figure and said: "Of course you are not bored anymore, I am so bored to death, I can only be your old mother in the villa."

Liu Bei smiled sweetly and said, "Sister Wei, Wenwen doesn't know how to cook, but it doesn't mean I can't either! So I'll cook today's dinner, you just wait and try something new." After speaking, she turned to Wu Tao and said, "Boss, What cuisine do you want to eat today?"

"Yo ho?" Wu Tao said in amazement: "Hearing this tone, you can know any cuisine! Then let's have a meal of Sichuan cuisine, I haven't tasted it for a long time."

Leng Wei gave Liu Bei a flamboyant look and said, "Damn girl, why don't you ask my opinion?"

Liu Bei had an idea: "Sister Wei, I also want to eat Sichuan cuisine. So we three minority obey the majority, two to one, let's cook Sichuan cuisine." After finishing speaking, he ran away.

Leng Wei looked at Liu Bei's back, shook her head lightly, turned her head, looked at Wu Tao and said angrily, "Have you seen enough?"

Wu Tao withdrew his reluctant gaze from the opponent's enchanting figure and said, "No."

Leng Wei stomped her slender feet, and said in a low voice: "Last night, you tossed all night, haven't you fed you yet?" Thinking of the fierce and continuous screaming upstairs last night, she felt numb all over her body for no reason.Immediately, the tender body twisted back to the room, thinking while walking: "Could it be that people who engage in scientific research are so energetic?" '

The TV news went to the next one, but it was still about the Ebola variant.

"... Dear audience, many national biomedical laboratories and famous university laboratories in the United States have announced the launch of research on Ebola variants, hoping to overcome this tenacious virus as soon as possible."

Just then, the phone rang.When Wu Tao picked it up and heard it was Mia, he immediately instructed: "Mia, tell everyone to keep a distance from outsiders when you go on vacation, so as not to be infected with the Ebola variant virus."

"Boss, Gavin feels that the many new bacteria we isolated from the magma may bring new inspiration for overcoming Ebola variants. So we have returned to the laboratory and started to accept this challenge!"

Wu Tao's eyes lit up. Although this possibility is unlikely, it is still a useful attempt.Besides, other laboratories dare to make such high-profile announcements, so it's okay for the future biological laboratory to try.

　Severe cold, sent a little late.
