When somersault cloud drones were fully advertised in North America, the server of Parallel Line Technology's newly launched Internet community mall immediately crashed.

Relying on the original Parallel Line game community, Parallel Line Technology has also opened up a new battlefield for online shopping. And this time, it was they who obtained the North American sales agency rights for Somersault Cloud drones.

However, the Internet community shopping mall was still poorly prepared and did not expect so many users to place orders at the same time.

In just one week, the number of orders for Somersault Cloud drones reached as high as 170,000?

Don’t laugh. By the time around 2020, the global annual sales of civilian drones have already exceeded the 10 million mark. Yes! More than 10 million units can be sold in a year!

And it is widely used in various fields. Many derivative models have been born.

But in this era, I really don’t know how to use it. It’s just a bunch of damn flying guys, they just think it’s fun.

Just because it's "very fun", more than 170,000 units were sold at once? This shows how popular it is?

And with such a sensation, there was also a situation of being out of the circle.

Many people who were not drone enthusiasts suddenly felt itchy when they suddenly saw this kind of product?

Because $999 is too cheap. For many people in Europe and the United States, it is nothing more than a week's salary. Even if you add in a mess of optional components, the price will never exceed $5,000.

You know, isn't that the price of a second-hand car? Isn't it just saving money by saving money on your teeth?

The extremely low price completely inspired the desire to buy.

Even many European and American media are competing to report on it. Such cheap and beautiful products have completely opened the sky's limit.

The truth is very simple: in the past, you had to take a plane to enjoy the beautiful scenery, but now just a drone is enough. Why not buy one? It is also fun to use as a toy?

In foreign countries, the prices of many high-performance high-end toys have already exceeded US$1,000!

It should be said that there is never a shortage of smart people in this world.

The emergence of somersault cloud drones also attracted the attention of these smart people, and they soon imagined various uses and fields.

The first was the U.S. Department of Defense. They immediately rushed to Parallel Technology (agent) to explore whether it could be used for military purposes.

Everyone should know that the U.S. military-industrial complex is a powerful monopoly group, and almost all of their wealth comes from military orders.

Although later there were ridiculous prices of US$5,000 for a roll of toilet paper and US$1 million for a goat. But that cannot be exposed. Even the congressmen on Capitol Hill can't do anything about it?

During this period, the U.S. military did have many drone projects, some of which were very advanced. But the budget was simply astronomical? Even the U.S. taxpayers couldn't bear it?

In this case, a $999 drone suddenly appeared?

Although it flies slower, the flight environment requirements are higher, the range is shorter, the load capacity is smaller, and the functions are simpler...

But even if there are 10,000 shortcomings, it’s so cheap if you can’t stand it?

This is cheaper than a rifle? And it can fly several kilometers away for reconnaissance? MMP! What kind of high-tech top-notch drone is needed?

Because it is too cheap, there will be doubts - where was the original high budget for the drone project used?

In the end, the U.S. military, with its keen sense of smell, immediately found Parallel Line Technology.

The result surprised them - the Somersault Cloud drones are a Chinese brand and are all produced in China. Are they just Chinese-made drones?

To explain: According to US law, their military products can only be manufactured locally.

That means that even if the Somersault Cloud drone is very practical and cheap, the military cannot purchase it?

Of course, there must be workarounds. Isn’t it just licensing production? Local manufacturers can purchase patents and license production.

But after the news was sent back to China, it was rejected by Sanzuwu - we are a civilian manufacturer and are not involved in the production of military products!

Damn it! Is there any other reason for this?

The U.S. military has a lot of old blood.

At this time, they also purchased a lot of Douyun drones from the market. After testing them, they were surprised to find that they were really suitable?

In some specific situations, this drone has considerable uses, and it doesn't hurt to consume it?

If this is the case? How much military expenditure will be saved?

So I contacted Sanzuwu again and proposed a high-premium acquisition through the leather bag company.

It was also rejected by the Three-legged Crow - our corporate philosophy is for the ideal of unmanned machines, so this is not for sale!

Not for sale, grandma! The leather bag company raised the price again. It was also rejected without hesitation.

This made the U.S. military become more ruthless. I still don’t believe it. Do you think you have the same technology and we don’t have it? So they simply issued a tender document—let’s build one of the same model ourselves!

However, after the invitation to tender was issued, very few people responded?

After asking the reason clearly, it turns out that after those manufacturers disassembled the machine and calculated the cost of all the parts, the same drone cost as much as 3,800 US dollars without taking into account the construction cost and labor cost of the factory?

Damn it! How can $3800 and $999 compete? And what we have here is a knockoff?

Nowadays, the three-legged Black Douyun UAV has become an instant hit and is very popular!

For such a brand valuation alone, Wall Street gave a valuation of US$220 million. And the sales volume of drones this year is estimated by the industry to be more than 500,000?

How can we compete? Is it true that if we produce one aircraft, we will lose US$2,800? If we produce 500,000 aircraft, that would be a huge loss of US$140 million?

Here, it reflects what Li Yuan has been insisting on - the importance of building a full industrial chain domestically.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This is because suppliers at each level can be easily found in China, and joint scientific research, joint development, and a series of full packages for large orders are available.

Only then can every link be reduced to the limit.

By the way, it is not easy to achieve this step.

Let’s take a disposable lighter as an example. Do you think this is an assembly problem with low labor costs? There is a complete metallurgical industry, chemical industry, and machinery industry behind it.

Of course, these heavy industries will never be built for a certain company's disposable lighters. It is because of the use of many other industries. A little leakage between your fingers can support the lighter by the way.

In other words, if there are no other industries, then there will be no heavy industry, and there will be no leaks between fingers.

So how can we compete? Should we all import them from overseas?

And with the entire industrial chain in China, even transportation costs are very cheap, right? There is no need for long-distance transportation at all.

After understanding this truth, you should know why foreign manufacturers cannot reduce costs?

So the U.S. military is once again talking about old blood. Are you here to leave others with no way out?

But the demand is still there, you can’t use good things, right?

Let me put it more clearly! Military contractors are what many people call mercenary companies.

In fact, American arms contractors have a wide range of businesses, and mercenaries are just one of them.

For example: duty-free shops in military bases in various countries, as well as supplies of supplies, including drinking water, etc., and special flights to transport military personnel from various places...

So one more business doesn't matter.

A military contractor came forward and ordered 2,000 Somersault Cloud drones from Parallel Line Technology, which were then transferred to the military for use.

Anyway, it’s just borrowing! There’s no procurement problem. And it’s for civilian use, bypassing their legal restrictions...

…

It's quite interesting. Similar situations happen one after another. After all, for ordinary enthusiasts, it doesn't matter if they buy earlier or later. But for some powerful departments, they must grab good things.

And during this process, the Three-Legged Crow laughed as some people were tossing and turning.

To be honest, it’s hard to say what a great sales volume is. 170,000 drones cost tens of millions of dollars per day. It can’t compare to the one-day sales of most multinational companies.

But when it comes to influence? It’s amazing. The three-legged crow suddenly has a lot of influence?

Because the delivery time is early or late, you can't just jump in the queue, right? Therefore, some powerful departments will definitely use various means to get the Somersault Cloud drone as soon as possible.

Of course, the three-legged crow doesn’t have any blocking behavior. Just open for business! There is no need to embarrass customers. As long as you dare to pay, we dare to sell!

But if you want to jump in line through connections? Then you have to talk carefully!

Anyway, everyone is showing off their special abilities, and Li Yuan and the others find it interesting.

However, I never expected that this matter would also be known to the country, and an acquaintance would be sent to find Li Yuan privately:

"I'm talking about Yuanzi, what's going on with that drone of yours? Why was it sold to a foreign military?" Yu Shengkang was the one who found him. He dug out Li Yuan's tea leaves and brewed them for himself.

a cup of tea.

"Brother Yu, stop turning it over. This is a high-quality broken egg. I'm going to take it to my mother to make tea eggs."

"Bah, bah! That's really cool." Yu Shengkang spat out a mouthful of tea foam, "Did I say you are so stingy? Shouldn't your family's tea eggs be made of special-grade Longjing?"

"It's so fresh. I use good tea. Doesn't my mother feel distressed to death? I still went out to buy it. It's not easy to find such a three-no product."

"So you hid it so well?"

Yu Shengkang laughed loudly. Suddenly, the laughter stopped abruptly: "Isn't that right? I'm not asking about tea eggs, but what kind of drone you have."

"What's wrong with the drones? Are they open for sale on the shelves? Brother Yu, if you want one, I'll give one to your son."

"No, no, don't pretend to be confused in front of me." Yu Shengkang asked bluntly, "I have a question for you. Is your drone really useful? To put it another way, can we use it too?"

"Of course it can be used. Just buy it if you give me the money?" Seeing Yu Shengkang blowing his beard and staring, Li Yuan quickly smiled and said, "Don't worry, Brother Yu. I have said before that cheap is the way to go! As long as certain technical conditions are guaranteed.

, making it into a cabbage price is the greatest power! You didn’t believe it before, so we parted ways in the end. You should know this, right? Do you still blame me? "

"Hmm." Yu Shengkang didn't want to dwell on this issue. He knew that the kid in front of him was born in the year of the monkey. As long as he was given a chance, he would climb up and grab the wool of the national special funds. "We won't talk about this today. Let's just talk about it.
