“So, my final offer is this, $50 billion in cash, plus a 100% replica of the model!”
“You want your team to go to Northern Europe to build an identical AI model for me. No differences are allowed from hardware to software, and I ask you to update and upgrade it simultaneously;”
“In other words, whatever version your version in Silicon Valley is upgraded to, my version in Northern Europe will be upgraded to this version at the same time. The maximum delay shall not exceed one hour;”
“Also, all knowledge bases in the AI model must be fully synchronized:”
“And you must always maintain this system for me, and you must not stop maintenance for any reason in the next 20 years.”
When Howard heard this, he immediately became anxious and blurted out: “That AI model… is now… has been spotted by the U.S. Department of Defense… and its commercial… commercial application prospects are… also very broad… in the future. The valuation space is no less than 100 billion U.S. dollars. After organic… organic integration with other industries, the added value may be… even more immeasurable… Your Majesty, you… are simply… idiotic dreams!”
Seeing that Howard was getting a little angry, Helena was not angry and just said lightly: “Mr. Rothschild, don’t get angry in a hurry. I have an additional condition that I haven’t finished yet;”
After a pause, Helena continued: “I want this set of your models for personal use and will not be used for any commercial purpose, which means it will not have any impact on your original market. I just want an identical replica for me. It’s just for your own use. To you, it’s nothing more than giving me a copy, a set of hardware, and twenty years of maintenance fees. The cost shouldn’t be much, right?”
Howard asked coldly: “How can I be sure… that you won’t… won’t use it for commercial use?”
Helena smiled and said: “This is the specific detail I am going to talk about next. You will still pay me 100 billion US dollars, but I will sign a contract with you and agree that 50 billion US dollars will be used in the next two years. Return to the Rothschild family in the amount of $2.5 billion per year within ten years;”
“If you cut off the upgrade and maintenance for me, I will cut off the subsequent return of this money;”
“If I take your AI model for commercial use, you can immediately stop upgrading and maintaining it, and sue the Nordic royal family in court for full repayment of US$50 billion;”
“All our cooperation, as long as an agreement is reached, will be written into the contract and will be protected by law.”
Howard said angrily: “Oh, I give you 100 billion U.S. dollars, and then you turn around and put it into a trust. Judging from the current median rate of return in the U.S. financial market, the annual interest will be at least several billion U.S. dollars. !”
“And once the compound interest is calculated, this is an astronomical figure. Aren’t you just borrowing chickens to lay eggs? Borrow my chickens to lay eggs for twenty years, and then return the chickens to me. I will take the eggs for these twenty years. Where can I get it back?”
Helena said generously: “How about this, you still give me 100 billion US dollars, of which 50 billion US dollars are generated every year in interest, and I will refund you every penny;”
“In the first year, I will calculate it for you based on the actual interest generated by the 50 billion U.S. dollars. When I return your 2.5 billion principal, all of this interest will also be refunded to you;”
“In the second year, I will pay you the interest actually generated on the US$47.5 billion, and then refund the principal of US$2.5 billion, and so on, until the twenty-year contract is completed.”
Speaking of this, Helena smiled and said: “If you mortgage the chicken with me for twenty years, all the eggs laid during these twenty years will belong to you, and the chicken itself will be returned to you gradually over twenty years. Is this fair enough? ”
Howard felt a little more comfortable when he heard this.
