Chapter 340: Sales Agent

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Benefits. The essence of this world was still ultimately built on benefit.

Anyone would participate in a project that actively benefitted them, but if it didn’t they wouldn’t participate and if it harmed their benefits, they would do just about anything to protect their own self-interest.

It was waging war that benefitted the military complex of the M nation.

This group did not care about how many soldiers died or how high military expenditures would be. All they cared about was how many weapons they could sell and how much money they could make. They dispatched lackeys to take the heads of anyone who got in their way. As weapons manufacturers and wholesalers, it was too easy for them to take a life.

It was very difficult to eradicate this group. However, if Xing Hai Technologies agreed to help, it would not be completely impossible to stamp them out!

The use of several of Xing Hai’s core products in the information and technology field could save a country up to 90% of their research and development costs, and 80% of their time, increasing work efficiency by several times in many fields.

Countries that imported a full set of Xing Hai products saw an annual GDP growth rate of more than 5%. The more time the products were used, the better the effect. This implied endless business opportunities!

Ordinary people could also acquire a substantial amount of opportunities and benefits as well as see significant improvements to themselves. This would be enough to stop people from supporting a military devil that, in the end, would only toss them into the abyss. Normal civilians were mostly irrational and short-sighted. The so-called “ideal democracy” could only be realized by people with excellent upbringings and independent personalities. Otherwise, they would only be manipulated by those possessed by tyranny and lust.

Of course, this did not have much to do with Chen Jin. He did not care about the fate of the M’s. The problem was that the M’s possessed nearly 10 thousand nuclear weapons which posed a severe threat to world peace. The nuclear button might be snatched away by madmen at any time and be exploited by war traffickers.

Chen Jin had a disturbing thought.

Is it possible that Earth could become the second planet Haierfa?

He shook his head.

“Try if you dare lunatics! I’ll let my Killer Robot’s slaughter you before you can act!”

With the monitoring prowess of AIs Nuwa and Alice, every move the M nation made was on his radar. If he detected abnormal movement, he could swiftly alter history. He would not have to live in a future full of regret, contemplating space-time gates or other silly hopes for changing history. Chen Jin had many approaches in his arsenal.

However, the side effects would be immense. His potential interference could not withstand long-term investigations. When it came to things that might make him the target of public criticism, it would be better for him not to intervene.

He thought long and hard.

For the sake of world peace, should I agree to Malton’s request?

He felt inexplicably disgruntled.

After contemplating this dilemma Chen Jin turned back to Malton Raphael.

“Why don’t you bring your concerns to the Z nation government? Xing Hai has licensed many of our technologies with them. If you tell them your difficulties, I’m sure they will help for the sake of world peace.”

Chen Jin thought of the Z nation. He was sure that the country would be willing to tend to this matter. The mission of safeguarding world peace could only be shouldered by something as big as a whole county, he alone definitely couldn’t cut it.

Malton rejected his idea.

“We do not wish to cooperate with a state-owned enterprise, only Xing Hai Technologies. Your company is our only target.”

Chen Jin was a little baffled.

“Isn’t it the same?” What the heck is this guy thinking?

“It is not! The core technologies are in Xing Hai’s possession, the government is nothing but a shell. Based on our shared values, we prefer autonomous companies.”

Chen Jin rolled his eyes.

“From where can you tell that we are autonomous? How is Xing Hai Technologies autonomous?

To hell with your “shared values.”

“It’s the shares. You alone possess 100% of Xing Hai Technologies’ shares. From this, we’ve seen your persistent autonomy This is the same as the M nation. This is where I admire you the most, and it is this that makes me think that Xing Hai Technologies will be successful in our country.

Malton seized the opportunity to reiterate his idea and dished out dozens of compliments.

Chen Jin was rendered speechless. What is going on?

“So what you mean is, you’d rather be Xing Hai Technologies’s tiangou than cooperate with our country?” Chen Jin asked abruptly.

“Tiangou? What does that mean?” Malton asked.

Chen Jin asked his translator, who looked stricken, to explain the word.”

“It means lapdog,” the translator said uncomfortably.

Malton coughed. His face was flushing as the situation settled into awkwardness.

After a brief moment, he spoke again.

“Mr. Chen, I’m offended by this term of yours, but I forgive your offense. At the same time, I wish you could put this in another way. It is better if you call this a unity for freedom. This is a mutual partnership. I do hope that Xing Hai Technologies will enter the M market to empower freedom and create a better future.”

“Fine!” Chen Jin was finally moved by Malton Raphael’s words. “You can return and tell the companies in your country to dispatch their respective business representatives to the Z nation along with cash deposits, the more the better. There will also be tests on Z nation culture. Ask them to send people who know us best.”

Chen Jin sighed.

Xing Hai intends to recruit local M agents to promote the Wa-wah robot, Bang Bang robot, Kitchen robot, Star Cloud system, Xinghai computer, Little Star learning machine, Virtual Factory, Work Assistant, etc. This is the best way I can think to do this for now. We will not set up a branch in the M nation for the time being. At our current state, we should seek cooperation with agents. Once the time is ripe, Xing Hai Technologies will move over.”

The word agent had a slightly ambiguous synonym – comprador. Xing Hai Technologies intended to recruit a batch of M compradors to promote their products.

“Sure, sure!” Malton was instantly overjoyed. “Mr. Chen, thank you for cooperating with us, thank you for saving the M nation!”

He almost cried out of joy after having completed his mission.

“And another thing!”

Chen Jin was not finished.

“Honestly speaking, I do not like the M nation’s media. If it is possible, Xing Hai Technologies wants to establish a media company over in the M nation that broadcasts more accurate information and improves your people’s intellect. I wonder if there’s an issue with this?”

Malton shook his head.

“Our press law is very strict. It disallows any foreign enterprises from owning local media. If the public support rate of President Lanfelord rises, we will amend this law and open a door for Xing Hai Technologies.”

“Alright, I hope you can do so.”

Those M media that deliberately tarnished Xing Hai Technologies must pay the price. Chen Jin decided he would find a way to bring them down.

Malton hopped away in glee.

Watching him depart so cheerfully, Chen Jin shook his head.

“Are the brains of the M’s more or less problematic?” he murmured to himself.
