Earlier in the month, Jiang Chen contracted out the specification of the “Phantom” helmet to workshops on Coro Island with a production cost of 40 USD per helmet. Jiang Chen aimed to sell each helmet for 50 USD, so a single helmet would have a profit margin of 10 USD.

The high rate of return brought a wave of startups in Xin.

There were no more fishermen on Ange Island. People grasped the opportunity to purchase production equipment and started workshops in their own backyards. They only needed to produce 1000 helmets to gain 10 thousand USD in profit; it was a much better business compared to fishing.

After they got accustomed to the taste of money, the clever ones would start building bigger plants, expanding production, lowering costs, and making more money…

And they would become capitalists dependent on Future Group.

The calculations showed that a helmet cost roughly 500 USD. Jiang Chen planned to set the price at 1500 USD. Based on the tariffs of each country, the price would vary 5 to 15%.

Although the price of 1500 USD was a bit pricey, from another perspective, it would allow users to gain eight more hours when they could have their eyes “open.” Was that still considered expensive?

It was like giving them a second life!

And Future Technology promised that the “Phantom” had a warranty of more than five years. Any helmet broken with normal usage within two years could be replaced while any helmet malfunctions within five years could be replaced at half price – the warranty was impeccable.

For users who opened the helmet out of “curiosity,” they had to pay for their curiosity, unfortunately. The agreement and package explicitly stated that any activity exposing the interior of the helmet could cause the interior to “oxidize.” A helmet damaged in this manner would not enjoy the warranty provided.

On the production side, due to low production rates of the helmet, it meant that only part of the population could obtain one. Jiang Chen trusted that even at a price of 1500 USD, the “Phantom” would be out of stock
