Chapter 478 - 147: Show-Off Moment
As soon as Squirrel appeared, the audience erupted in excited whistles, the three ring blades on the mecha’s arm gleaming with a deadly light, capturing the hearts of many weapon enthusiasts.
The mecha will display some data for the audience to see.
Climbing, acceleration, energy endurance, etc., upon seeing those numbers, the audience broke into applause again.
Squirrel’s mecha is a high-end model under the Xue Family’s name, slightly modified to suit Squirrel’s driving habits.
Although the Xue Family’s reputation has declined like the stock market because of Xue Huiyi’s incident, they remain the leader in the mecha market with consistent quality.
People who buy high-end products still trust their brand.
Everyone envies Squirrel for having a good mecha.
They might not fully understand the data, but the price is attractive. So many zeros before the decimal point must mean it’s a good thing.
Then it was Su Xiaocai’s turn to come forward, and as soon as her mecha debuted, the entire audience instantly fell silent.
"Oh my, this must be a custom mecha."
"I don’t believe it, how much does this mecha cost?"
The mecha’s exterior continued elements of Black Wing’s design, a silver-black body with six wings spread out, making the smaller frame appear more dynamic.
An overwhelming sense of beauty shocked the whole crowd.
The weapons mounted on the wings didn’t affect the balance; instead, it added a touch of lightness.
A mecha different from this era.
Petite, yet not losing its imposing aura.
"What kind of mecha is this?" Many people pressed against the screen, magnifying the mecha’s structure with their fingers.
"It’s too beautiful, unbelievably beautiful. I wonder how its data looks like."
Soon, the data was also displayed.
All data surpassed that of Squirrel’s mecha.
Except for one aspect, it carried slightly less weapon weight.
But this factor didn’t affect its strength at all.
Su Xiaocai walked around the center, doing some free advertising, half-jokingly saying, "This is our luxury mass-market version mecha, dual-use version, priced at nine hundred eighty-eight thousand. Pre-orders are welcome; the link shows your intention to buy, not an agreement to manufacture. Delivery time is undecided, thank you."
Squirrel suddenly felt a bit emo, why is this person like this? His actual mecha costs over ten million, more than ten times, and you’re just saying the weapon carrying capacity is slightly less?
"Jeez, is this data real?"
"Is President Su planning to lower the prices of all mechas?"
"I support this! When will it be released? Where is the pre-order page? Ninety-eight thousand, my car costs more than hers."
"My family never supports me buying a mecha, I want to know the performance of the cheapest version. If the mecha under fifty can achieve half of this one, I’m willing to buy it."
"Who else but my great Cai Bao dares to challenge all impossibilities."
"I’ll work hard to earn and maybe get one too."
"But speaking of which, Capital Star doesn’t allow mechas, what’s the point of buying one?"
Xue Feiting, who had been watching the live stream all along, stood up, "Impossible." At this price, unless Su Xiaocai owned all the patents for the mecha, starting from the raw material sources.
Thinking of those few shareholders on Extraordinary Island, Xue Feiting clenched his fists. This little brat had paved the way for herself from the very beginning.
The Extraordinary Island plan started by pulling in three shareholders from various industries.
No matter what they do, they stand invincible.
Of course, Su Xiaocai wasn’t just limited to that. She stepped off the mecha, pressed a button on the communicator, and the mecha rapidly transformed. The weapons automatically detached, stored in the Space Button, and in less than ten seconds, the mecha turned into a vehicle slightly wider.
The entire audience was rendered speechless.
Such a dramatic display, urban travel might need unlocking permission for the transformation from car to mecha, but thinking of luxury cars all being mechas.
When the Insect People arrive, there won’t be a shortage of mechas at all.
Even if civilians can’t play around much, the army and police can always requisition these mechas for combat, never worrying about a lack of mechas.
"This move, this advertisement, caught everyone off guard."
"The previous price war, we could fight her head-to-head and scare her off. This latest move, we can only seek cooperation with her."
Whether car dealers or mecha traders, they can only find ways to partner with her.
The mecha industry is truly about to change drastically.
With enthusiasm and ambition, Su Xiaocai almost made mecha merchants grind their silver teeth, but swallowing the blood after biting their tongues was inevitable.
The subject of transformable mechas, tackled by so many, not because of cost issues, but because they couldn’t turn such large mechas into road-worthy vehicles.
Width controlled within the range of automobiles, and she pulled it off successfully.
She did it with such aplomb.
With such ostentatious entry, no wonder the vegetable farmers are uniformly ridiculous.
