251: Mr. Xia: I've been lucky enough to have a discus fall from the sky!

After the broadcast, Su Yu was meticulously studying the various knowledge he had just acquired in his mind.

When many technologies from movies and TV shows first appeared in reality, even he, who had always been bolstered by the system, was momentarily stunned.

Indeed, his previous development of the system was only a tiny fraction.

The more reputation points unlocked, the more various good things became available.

It's worth noting that before his reputation points reached 100,000, Su Yu had, out of curiosity, checked the most expensive skill he could currently redeem.

If he remembered correctly, the top-ranked one would require spending fifty to sixty thousand.

Therefore, if it weren't for this unexpected unlocking of the 100,000 reputation point threshold, he probably wouldn't have been able to redeem the skills needed to build a mech.

It wasn't until Su Yu had quickly browsed through all the newly acquired knowledge that his phone suddenly vibrated with a "buzzing" notification.

Strange, hadn't he just finished broadcasting? Who was looking for him so urgently?

Su Yu picked up his phone, and saw the buzzing vibration notification coming from the Kuaishou app. It was precisely the Streamer who had accepted his application to connect during the live broadcast earlier.

The account name was [National Robot Competition Official].

Yes, that's right, he remembered that was its name.

"Teacher Su, I'm so sorry! I'm disturbing you right after you finished your broadcast."

The other party sent a message via private chat, followed by a cute baby apologetic emoji.

"What's wrong? Is there anything else?"

Su Yu quickly typed a reply.

"Teacher Su, didn't you say in the live broadcast earlier that you needed us to provide various materials for building the robot?"

"What raw materials do you need? If it's convenient, could you directly provide a list? I'll have the company's purchasing department find these items immediately."

"I know, after all, some materials are not easy to discuss during a live broadcast, so I had to wait until you finished your broadcast to ask."

Judging by the tone of the other party's reply, Su Yu felt that he was still chatting with the same chubby middle-aged man from earlier.

He wasn't even in a hurry yet, but he didn't expect the other party to be so actively pushing to come over.

It was as if he was afraid of delaying the free delivery of materials to him—no, it was as if he was afraid of delaying the progress of the show's recording.

Su Yu pondered for a moment, then continued to reply.

"Please wait a moment. I'll compile a document with the first batch of raw materials needed and send it to you. If you're concerned about affecting the broadcast schedule, then please get me the materials as soon as possible, and I'll be able to build the robot faster."

The chubby middle-aged man was immediately overjoyed!

"Alright, Teacher Su, no problem!"

"Then I'll wait for you."

"If you need any other materials later, or if the materials run out midway, just remember to inform me in advance. I will find all these items and deliver them to you as quickly as possible."

Su Yu did not reply again.

An hour later.

A detailed list encompassing hundreds of millions of raw materials was clearly written and sent out by him.

The chubby middle-aged man, who had been waiting restlessly, jumped up from the sofa in excitement upon receiving Su Yu's material list. This startled Hu Yueyue, who was busy tidying up the live broadcast room nearby.

She had never seen her boss so excited before.

"Yueyue, reply to Teacher Su, saying we've received the material list. I will ensure all these items are delivered to him by the day after tomorrow at the latest."

After speaking, the chubby middle-aged man, in a great mood, pushed the door open and headed to the company's purchasing office.

Although he couldn't understand what was on the material list Su Yu sent, the dozens of densely packed pages made him feel a bit more at ease.

Materials were easy to talk about; as long as the other party asked, he would fulfill his promise and just get these things... "Easy to talk about?!"

"CEO Xia, this, this is not easy to talk about at all!!"

Experiment Center.

The head of the technical department and the person in charge of material procurement, both wearing white research coats, simultaneously widened their eyes!

Liu Weigang's left hand, holding the procurement list, was trembling slightly, and Xu Chuan couldn't help but raise his voice by two full octaves!

"CEO Xia, do you know how much it would cost to find everything on this list?"

Liu Weigang took a deep breath, trying hard to keep his voice as calm as possible.

Xia Dahai frowned, looking at the two in front of him with some displeasure.

As one of the top three figures at Haichuan New Technology Company, he felt a sense of being challenged and questioned by his subordinates. This made him, as the company's CEO, feel a bit embarrassed.

Although Xia Dahai didn't know how much it would cost to gather the materials on the list, he knew how difficult it was to invite Su Yu, who was currently very popular, to participate in the National Robot Competition!

He didn't ask for any appearance fee and decisively agreed to participate in the competition. This made Xia Dahai feel that he had already taken advantage of the other party.

In such a situation, if he couldn't even fulfill his promise to provide the raw materials for building the robot, it would be somewhat inexcusable.

Besides, how much money could it cost to make the raw materials for just one robot?

The robots the company researched only cost hundreds of thousands per unit, with more money invested in scientific research. He understood this situation.

Seeing that Xia Dahai remained unmoved, Xu Chuan shook his head and continued to speak.

"CEO Xia, Engineer Liu is right. The cost of raw materials on this list is indeed somewhat expensive. I just had my subordinates do a rough estimate; it will cost at least 100 million to gather these items. If we need to gather them by tomorrow, the price might increase by another 10%!"

"This is still because our material suppliers are powerful. If it were a typical company, let alone one day, it might not be able to gather these things in one or two months."

How, how much?!

It would cost hundreds of millions to buy all these materials?!

When Xia Dahai heard this number, his mind also went "buzz" and he was stunned.

Then, as his thoughts raced, he instantly understood why Su Yu had shown a very satisfied expression after hearing him agree to provide the raw materials.

A material cost of hundreds of millions!

And this might only be the first batch!

My goodness, he had thought that such a good thing, like a pie falling from the sky, could actually happen to him. Turns out this wasn't a pie at all, it was a damn iron disc!

Indeed, one cannot judge a book by its cover!

Xia Dahai recalled the other party's harmless smile as he made such an outrageous demand, and now he couldn't even force a smile.

Who could he blame?!

Who told him that he had already made the promise! And he had even thumped his chest in front of millions of viewers in the live broadcast room.

If he were to go back on his word, his National Robot Competition would probably be canceled!

Thinking of this, Xia Dahai could only grit his teeth and console himself mentally.

This 100 million material fee would be considered promotional expenses for inviting various celebrities to build momentum for the competition.

Anyway, marketing and promotion also cost money, and instead of giving the money to those popular celebrities, it's better to give it to Su Yu. The other party's current popularity means that even spending 100 million to invite him wouldn't be a loss!
