Chapter 134 Energy Industry
"...Are you trying to subdue them?" As soon as Hugh Jones opened his mouth, Josie basically guessed what the other party wanted to do.
Vampires in this world don’t have any ranks of titles as in novels, such as Grand Duke, Earl, and Jazz. Most of them are just titles or disguised identities in life, and have nothing to do with strength levels.
There is not even a clear division of strength.
The only thing that is relatively clear is that in most cases, the older the vampire is, the stronger it is,
But blood-born vampires are not without the possibility of killing those ancestor-level vampires by virtue of external forces.
So Hugh Jones, as a newborn vampire, wants to subdue other vampires in the United States, even including some old ones, it is not delusional.
Even as long as you have enough force, it is not impossible for you to let a top vampire ancestor like Dracula work for you.
"That's right, after I learned about it, I realized that the blood race has a lot of power in the United States, and it is usually hidden by our side. This is a very good power, but you know that my strength is limited, and the power in my hand The armed forces are also limited, so I need your help, sell me a batch of electromagnetic weapons of that kind, of course, if you are willing to sell me the technology, that would be the best!" Hugh Jones also admitted himself very simply the goal of.
"...I don't quite understand. Although ultraviolet rays are the best weapon against vampires, artificial ultraviolet rays are not a particularly advanced technology. With the industrial capabilities of Roxon Group, there should be no need to buy electromagnetic weapons from me, right?" Josie frowned slightly. asked.
While in Europe, Josie and Hugh Jones experimented with some low-level vampires.
Among the non-transcendent substances, garlic essence and silver basically have a certain killing effect on vampires, but it is only a certain killing effect, not a sure kill.
For example, silver weapons, unless you chop off or pierce the vampire's head or heart, you can achieve a one-hit kill effect.
Otherwise, if only the vampires are hacked, it will only make these vampires suffer, instead of being wiped out after being hacked once in movies and TV dramas.
Garlic is also the same. Simple garlic can only make vampires feel afraid or hurt. Only refined garlic essence can cause enough lethality to vampires.
As for the holy water, the cross...hehehe! Maybe there might be real ones, but at least Josie hasn't seen any useful ones yet.
Some other chemical toxic substances can also cause harm to vampires, but these things are also more harmful to users.
So after a comprehensive test, for vampires, at least for conventional vampires, ultraviolet rays have the best killing effect.
Ultraviolet rays can be manufactured artificially as early as the beginning of the 20th century, and it is not a high-tech in this era. If Roxon Group can't make it, Josie will not believe it.
"That's right, but those blood races are not primitive people, they also know how to use guns and bombs, as long as they find that my people use ultraviolet devices, they will give priority to the device as the target of attack, and if there is no fixed In the case of the power supply, my group of trash can't make a battery that can keep the high-power ultraviolet lamp running!" Hugh Jones said helplessly.
Josie understood now, in fact, the protective ability of the ultraviolet device and the like are all excuses.
Hugh Jones is interested in the battery technology of the magnetic blast infantry suit.
The energy used by the magnetic blast infantry armor is naturally impossible to generate out of thin air, and it mainly relies on the extremely advanced battery technology on the armor.
Although this battery technology is incomparable to the Ark reactor, in terms of performance, even Josie's battery technology in the 21st century in his previous life is incomparable. In this era, it is a proper black technology.
More importantly, the battery of the Magnetic Explosion Infantry Armor is also equipped with the unique regenerative feedback current coil technology of the Red Alert World Bear.
Anyone who has played Red Alert knows that the power plant of the Bear camp is something called a magnetic reactor.
But to be precise, the magnetic energy reactor is not a generator in the traditional sense, but a secondary generator.
What does that mean? It is that this thing itself is actually just a large battery, the key point is that a device called a regenerative feedback current coil is installed on it.
When the reactor is discharging, this device will rely on the voltage generated during the discharge to generate a new current.
To put it bluntly, it means that electricity can be used to generate electricity.
It's just that the newly generated current will have a great attenuation compared with the original current.
So this is not a perpetual motion machine, it does not violate the law of energy conservation, and the power generation is far inferior to that of a normal turbo generator.
The only advantage is that it increases the utilization rate of electric energy by 30-40%, which greatly reduces the cost of electricity, and at the same time increases the battery life by 30-40%.
Well, this one advantage alone is already amazing.
"It turned out that I fell in love with my battery technology! My friend, you Roxon are also playing with energy. I don't think you don't know the huge benefits in it!" Josie said with a smile.
Whether it’s battery technology or this regenerative feedback current coil technology, any one of them is enough to change the pattern of the world’s energy industry. Is it that you, the Roxon Group, can eat it if you say it?
"Of course I understand, but the development of new technologies also requires a huge investment of cost, and various obstacles will be encountered during the period, right? But if you have a partner who is already strong enough, the situation will be different. It’s the same.” Hugh Jones also said with a confident smile.
"Hehe... Do you think I'm determined?" Josie couldn't help but sneered when she heard the words. Of course the problems Hugh Jones said existed, but would Josie care about this now?
"No, no, don't get me wrong, I'm not threatening you, but I think that the conditions I offer will definitely satisfy you!" Hugh Jones shook his head slightly when he saw this.
"Oh? Tell me?" Hearing what Hugh Jones said, Josie couldn't help but feel a little interested.
"15% of Roxon Energy Group's shares!" Hugh Jones offered the price.
My good guy, Josie was really surprised this time, the price was indeed beyond his imagination.
Don't look at the price offered by Hugh Jones, it's just the shares of Roxon Energy Group, not the shares of Roxon Group—although the word energy is only missing, the value of it is very different.
After all, Roxon Energy is only a part of the Roxon Group.
Although the Roxon Energy Group does not represent the entirety of the Roxon Group, it is also the most essential part of it.
Includes all relevant upstream and downstream industrial chains of the Roxon Group, such as oil, coal mines, gas stations, power plants, etc., and these industries of Roxon Energy account for 40% of the total related industries in the United States.
And 15% of the shares is definitely not a small number.
After all, the energy industry is not an ordinary industry, and there are not many joints that need to be opened up, even if this is the United States, which claims to be free of business.
Even if Josie builds a new energy company by himself, it is difficult to guarantee that he can retain more than 50% of the equity under normal business methods. As for 100% holding? Stop messing around, maybe it might be easier to directly raise troops to conquer the entire United States.
So even if Josie's battery technology is advanced enough, it will definitely not be a loss in exchange for 15% of Roxon Group's shares.
After all, it is only battery technology, not resource or power generation technology.
Of course, there is also a very important point here. Now Josie seems to be rich, but in fact he doesn't have much money and energy to invest in the energy industry.
However, if the regenerative feedback current coil technology is added, 15% is a lot less meaningful.
"Not enough!" So Josie shook his head and said.
"Josie, you can't be too greedy!" Seeing Josie's refusal, Hugh Jones couldn't help frowning.
"No, it's not that I'm greedy, but there's another technology here." So Josie brought up the regenerative feedback current coil technology.
"So that's the case, the 15% of the shares is indeed a little less." Hugh Jones was stunned when he heard this, and then quickly made a decision, "If that's the case, let's go to 30%!"
"The price is very fair, and I can't find a reason to refuse it, but if I remember correctly, you only own less than 30% of Roxon Energy's shares, right?" Josie nodded, and then said.
Although Hugh Jones is one of the founding family members of the Roxon Group, he is also the current helm.
But as mentioned earlier, it is almost impossible for a single family or individual to completely monopolize energy, a national lifeline industry, unless the family or individual is the ruler of that country.
Therefore, the shares of Rosen Energy held by the entire Jones family have not reached 50%, and Hugh Jones' personal shares are even less.
"That's right, I can't get it out myself, but I can persuade other shareholders to share some shares together and get 30% for you!" Hugh Jones said confidently.
"Then there is no problem, happy cooperation!" Josie showed a smile on his face, and immediately stretched out his hand, and joined Hugh Jones' cold palm, announcing the conclusion of the deal.
…
After sending off Hugh Jones, finally no third visitor came to the door.
Looking at the sky, it was almost evening, and Josie was going to Brooklyn to see another old friend.
Due to the limited understanding of the energy industry, all content comes from personal understanding, so don’t spray if you don’t like it
