Chapter 861
Chapter 861
In the end, three hundred servers plus 1,000 H100 GPUs, along with a $30 million commission fee, totals $94.76 million, roughly RMB 680 million.
"OK."
"Xu, you are doing big things; I am very glad to know such a man!"
Fernando realized last night what kind of person Xu Lin was. In fact, when Xu Lin wanted GPUs and servers, Fernando looked into it briefly after returning and understood they were for training artificial intelligence. At that moment, he realized that Xu Lin, who called himself Xu, should be the Young Master Xu.
And now, with Xu Lin asking for five million kilowatts of electricity, it's clear without needing to think much that Xu Lin is up to big things in Dubai.
He is the renowned and mysterious artificial intelligence scientist from the Eastern superpower—
Young Master Xu!
This is a man standing at the top of the world; even if not now, he will be in the future.
Fernando is very pleased to know such a man and adheres to business ethics, keeping his secrets.
"Nice to meet you too!"
"Pleasure working with you!"
"Pleasure working with you!"
The two shook hands.
Xu Lin gave him the money.
Then, the two said goodbye.
This time, Xu Lin truly realized the benefits of having connections.
In the local afternoon, after eating, Xu Lin flew directly to Dubai.
When the goods arrive, Xu Lin will start immediately.
However, before that, Xu Lin needs to arrange the venue.
For example, setting up a factory first and buying several million kilowatts of electricity simultaneously.
That evening, Xu Lin landed at Dubai Airport.
"Xu, I have arranged it; tomorrow, a high-ranking official from Dubai will meet you. Your identity will be that of a businessman, and everything is arranged by me."
"Thanks."
"No problem, you are a man who does big things; I am happy to provide convenience for you."
"The official I introduced is a scumbag, but I have greased the wheels."
"However, you need to be low-key, don't mention what you're doing, as Western countries are looking for you."
"OK."
Xu Lin understood that Fernando already knew who he was.
However, Fernando is reliable, and Xu Lin was relieved.
"Right now, your identity is a businessman coming to invest and build a factory."
The next day, Xu Lin met the official.
His name was Bond.
He gave Xu Lin a distasteful vibe, and Fernando also mentioned he was a scumbag.
However, a scumbag is good.
At least it means he can be manipulated; the worst would be if he were a principled, incorruptible man.
Xu Lin negotiated with the official for a 10,000 square meter factory, rented temporarily for a year, with rent exceeding 6.3 million.
As for electricity, Xu Lin bought a total of ten million kilowatts, not five million.
Ten million kilowatts here cost around RMB 7.2 million, although outsiders typically have to pay over 5% more.
But with Fernando's help, Xu Lin didn't have to pay the extra charge.
With Fernando's arrangements, most of the factory setup and electricity purchase were completed within half a day.
In the evening,
Xu Lin invited the official to a top-tier club, calling three "Golden Beauties" for him.
Golden Beauties wore bikinis and were covered with gold powder, sparkling as if covered in real gold glitter, hence the name Golden Beauties.
Greasing the wheels without adding intensity?
It's not that simple.
Later on, Xu Lin still needs to rely on this scumbag Bond. He can't always rely on Fernando.
He needs local connections to get things done.
Xu Lin knew what to do; he had to let this man enjoy himself first.
While Bond was enjoying himself, Xu Lin took a car back to the Sailboat Hotel.
Dubai's Sailboat Hotel is well-known.
Xu Lin stayed in the presidential suite, costing an astounding 390,000 per night.
However, Xu Lin didn't have to pay.
With Fernando's connections, Xu Lin lived there for free, enjoying the top-notch service.
In the last two days, Xu Lin spent nearly RMB 700 million in one go.
He needs to make money well.
It was his first time spending so much money at once, making Xu Lin realize that without speeding up money-making, he would likely run out of funds in the future.
Therefore, he needs to strengthen and expand his money-making channels.
