Chapter 256 Technology Sharing

Tony Stark sat leisurely on a recliner by the lake of the Alliance base in the Savage Land, admiring the floating city in the distant "sky" that was about to be completely completed with the efforts of countless steel soldiers who worked as hard as bees.

This floating city was finally named Avalon after a vote by the Alliance.

He did not even mention Dalaran, which Levi had only thought of once before.

Because he could not tell the meaning of the name Dalaran at all, it was too abrupt.

So he voted for the name Avalon.

However, in the meeting before returning to Earth, this floating city named Avalon almost had a difficult birth.

After all, after obtaining a large amount of technology from alien civilizations, a floating city inside the earth has relatively little significance for the Alliance.

In contrast, Tony prefers to rebuild a super space station in space to replace the floating city.

As for upgrading Avalon and rising it into space, they have never considered it at all.

Because compared to the super space station to be built, Avalon is too backward.

The cost of completely transforming it and then raising it to space is much higher than directly mining all the required resources on the moon, processing them on the spot and building a new city in space.

However, after discussion, Avalon's existence was finally retained.

After all, in the original calculation, the floating city was almost completed, including the nearly one year they left.

It would be a pity to demolish it.

Moreover, for the current alliance, there is no shortage of Avalon's resources and time, as well as "manpower" issues - the cost of transforming the old steel soldiers is as high as the floating city, so it is not as cost-effective as building a new one.

So even if Avalon is really useless to the alliance in the future, it is not bad to use it as a resort - it feels very good to look down at the entire wilderness from the sky.

But Tony is not here to see Avalon today.

There is nothing to see in the unfinished Avalon.

After all, as a designer, he is very familiar with every corner of Avalon, and at most he has a little sense of accomplishment.

However, this sense of accomplishment is nothing compared to the super space station, the City of Thousand Stars, which has been designed and is about to start construction.

Accompanied by a burst of sparks, a portal opened, and Levi and Wanda stepped out of it, lying down on the two recliners next to Tony very unceremoniously.

"Why do you have the leisure time today and remember to treat me to tea?" After Levi sat down, he unceremoniously used the tea set that had been set up long ago to pour himself a cup and smell it. It was not their usual drink "chrysanthemum tea", but a serious green tea.

Then he took a sip and praised, "Tsk, it's pretty good, what tea?"

"I heard it's some Royal Tea Longjing. They know you like to drink tea, so they asked me to pass it on to you. In addition, there are some mother tree red robes and so on." Tony replied.

"Haha, they are thoughtful!" Levi nodded when he heard it, and there was no surprise.

These things are undoubtedly state gifts from his hometown.

In this situation, it is normal for him to receive state gifts. In addition to him, Tony has received countless things.

And because after returning to Earth, in addition to planning to recruit immigrants and build space stations, the Alliance also did one thing.

That is technology sharing.

After all, one of the purposes of leaving Earth was to try to improve the technological level of the Earth through acquisitions.

Although the Alliance has now obtained countless times more than the planned amount, and has also obtained a perfect "new home" such as the New Earth.

But the original intention cannot be forgotten.

However, how to share technology is also a very troublesome thing.

After all, the political situation on Earth is too complicated.

If it is simply made public, the result will inevitably be war, and a big melee.

Those countries that originally occupied the largest cake on Earth will never watch those small countries that have obtained technology become stronger.

And when small countries have advanced technology, they will also want to redistribute the cake on Earth. If they don't get it, there may even be a "crow brother" who will overturn the table.

So war is absolutely unavoidable at that time.

It is true that with the current strength of the alliance, it can forcibly suppress various countries with force.

But how long can they suppress it?

And if it does this, the alliance may become the target of public criticism from the entire earth.

What's more, most small countries do not have the national potential to quickly improve technology - many countries do not even have a basic industrial system, and technology is given to them for free.

So this option was PASSed before they left the earth.

So how should the technology sharing plan be implemented?

This issue has been discussed for a long time within the alliance.

Although the current alliance, as an organization that has entered the universe, does not have any bias.

But as a member of the countries on earth, most of the alliance members are still slightly biased.

For example, although Levi is an American international in this world, his core is still yellow.

His father is still a staff member there.

So when discussing, he is more or less biased towards that side.

Jessica and other American members are not surprised to support their own country.

Melina and other bears are not very close to the current big bear because of their own experience, but compared with the United States, the back home, they are still willing to help the big bear say a few words, well, definitely not because of Levi's hint.

The most surprising thing is Tony, the world's richest man who once had the closest relationship with the US government, but he is somewhat biased towards the East and the big bear.

So the final result of the discussion is to maintain the current global structure, with the five major flow...mobile vendors as the core, gradually spread technology, and the first rich drive...ahem, the first strong drive the later strong, and finally achieve the technological improvement of the entire earth.

Admittedly, this method still cannot avoid disputes.

Especially the four vendors among them, there is a high probability that they will still invade those small countries for their own interests.

But at least from past experience, under this structure, the possibility of a large-scale war is much smaller.

There is a gap in strength among the several families, but it is not outrageous, and each has its own plans, and they will be relatively restrained when encountering things.

Moreover, although the strength of several families varies, they are still powerful countries in general, and they will develop very quickly.

They are far from those small countries.

It may not even need too many conflicts, and the five families have already gone to the universe.

As for whether the five families will be divided or united after they go to the universe, it is not important to the alliance.

Because for the alliance, the most important thing is to let humans go out, whether they agree or not, it doesn’t matter.

Even if the five major merchants can form new civilized individuals, it is a good thing-maybe they can occupy more seats in the Galactic Parliament in the future.

And only giving technology to the five major merchants can also save the alliance a lot of trouble-because if something bad happens, just go to these five companies.

As for the interests of small countries... there is no way.

The development of history always requires sacrifices.

Moreover, no matter whether the earth is unified in the future or developed in other ways, these small countries with few people are unlikely to last too long.

As long as they don’t make too much trouble and don’t commit large-scale inhumane acts, the alliance will turn a blind eye.

Of course, if anyone goes too far, the Alliance doesn't mind imposing sanctions. Tony's new Iron Soldier design has not been tested in actual combat.

It's easy to do some degreasing work.

So, not long ago, Tony invited representatives of the five major merchants in the name of the Alliance, secretly held a meeting, revealed some specific conditions of the Milky Way to the five countries, and initially finalized the preliminary plan for technology sharing.

First of all, technology sharing is not free, and it is even more impossible to share all the technologies mastered by the Alliance.

Although the current Alliance can be said to have nothing to lack compared to the countries on Earth.

After all, the resources in the universe are much richer than those on Earth.

But free things are often not easy to cherish - the so-called free is the most expensive, that is a prerequisite, the Alliance does not have the habit of sowing seeds first and then harvesting.

And these technologies were also bought by the Alliance with real money.

So a certain fee must be charged, and the scope of sharing is mainly the more basic technologies that Levi and others bought in Xandar.

It's just that the fee the Alliance wants is not money, but some other conditions.

For example, publicly recognize the status of the alliance and allow the alliance to open offices in important cities of various countries - in fact, it is equivalent to an embassy. Of course, the alliance is short of personnel now, and this work can only be temporarily filled by employees of the Stark Group in various countries around the world, but this is not a bad thing for these employees, because they will be the second batch of anti-Earth citizens.

Why not the first batch? Because in the first batch of recruitment, they have to stay on Earth to work...

In addition, the alliance has to recruit personnel or implement some plans that are beneficial to human civilization as a whole, and the five major vendors need to cooperate.

When facing alien civilizations in the early stage, we must listen to the opinions of the alliance and not harm human interests.

Of course, many details are still under discussion.

This has also led to Tony being very busy in recent times, flying around the world every few days.

Of course, it is not just him, after all, there are actually quite a few idle people in the alliance.

Recruiting personnel and engineering construction do not require the participation of the main combatants of the alliance, so they are idle anyway, so they just follow Tony to the five major vendors to sit and get to know each other.

For example, when going to the UK, he brought Pietro, the newly joined British captain Peggy Carter. After returning to Earth, the Alliance did not hide the situation in the universe from him. After understanding the current situation of the Alliance, the British captain also took the initiative to ask to join the Alliance.

In view of the help this "elder" had given to the Alliance in the past and his non-pedantic mentality, Tony and Levi unanimously decided to agree to his application to join the Alliance.

As for her husband, the former Captain America?

A retired old Deng should not join in the fun, just serve his wife well.

When going to Da Mao, Tony brought the former Black Widow trio with him. However, when they first met, they did not get along well with Da Mao.

Because the Russians actually had the whimsical idea to invite the recently popular Winter Guard.

Although Tony and Ivan no longer care about the things of their fathers.

But some verbal confrontations are inevitable, so you can imagine the atmosphere at that time.

Well, the negotiations with the United States are the most convenient, but they also make Tony the most upset.

The process of going to the East is actually the most comfortable for Tony, and except for Levi, almost all members of the alliance are dispatched.

As for why Levi, as the most important person, did not go.

Hey, isn't it to avoid suspicion!

And as the mage of Kamar-Taj and the future Supreme Mage, Levi also needs to maintain his aloofness and not have too much contact with the official secular world.

Besides, whether he appears or not does not affect the overall situation. With his father around, Levi can just let him pass on the message if there is anything.

It is also because Tony runs around the world as a representative of the alliance.

So in order to better build a closer relationship, the five major merchants have been sending various national gifts to Tony, the representative of the alliance.

Therefore, it is normal to send some tea or something.

Although these teas are precious, compared with the technologies provided by the alliance, they are nothing at all.

Well, wait, is there something missing here?

Hey, forget it, nothing else matters!

"Let's talk about business. You are not just here to drink tea with me, right?" Levi asked Tony after drinking two cups of tea.

"I really want to drink tea with you, but didn't I say that you can come alone? Why did you bring Wanda?" Tony looked at Wanda who was looking at Avalon with interest, and whispered to Levi.

"I have nothing to hide from Wanda. She knows everything I know!" Levi said after looking at Tony.

Well, except for the fact that I am a time traveler! Levi added silently in his heart.

"...So, she also knows the content of this topic in the future?" Tony's eyes widened when he heard Levi say that. "Good fellow, how long have you two been together, and you already know everything? If you don't have tracheitis in the future, I'll take your last name!"

Levi rolled his eyes at him and said nothing.

But Wanda on the side did speak up, "I can't say whether Victor has tracheitis, but Tony, you definitely have tracheitis!"

"Can you hear it?" Tony was shocked when he heard that, and even forgot to pursue Wanda's question about his tracheitis.

"Haha, after she got the blood of the high elves, her hearing has also been greatly enhanced, far beyond ours." Levi said with a smile.

The long ears of the high elves are not just beautiful decorations!
