#96 - The Business of Bloodline Factors [Part 2]
Humans—the underworld—vampires. This was the old chain of interests.

Vampires—the underworld—humans. This is the new chain of interests.
It's simply that they used to raise blood banks for vampires, and now they raise vampires for humans.
Vampires have now become frightened birds, completely reduced to a group of rats running across the street.
Because of the strength of the underworld, those companies that acquired vampires even spontaneously discussed a set of sales grading system for premium and inferior products internally. However, before this system could truly begin to circulate, the official version of the vampire procurement standard grading system was preemptively announced by the government. In fact, the two versions were largely the same, with only minor differences in the details. For example, vampires who possess dark power within their bodies and can use dark magic are naturally of higher quality than vampires who do not have dark power within them and cannot cast spells.
Even if the latter is older than the former, it is still the same.
Anyway, there are countless commercial plans related to vampire factors now. Every day, companies are making shocking statements about vampire factors. Osborn Industries, as expected, rushed ahead of everyone else to launch a new health product that supposedly contains vampire factors. It is extremely expensive, but the sales are excellent, and it can be said that demand exceeds supply.
It is said that even Norman Osborn, who led all of this, was shocked by the sales revenue. While marketing vampire factor products as limited by the finite raw material supply, artificially creating production anxiety, he also increased production capacity and donated another 200 million US dollars to the Brooklyn Charitable Foundation of Hebron.
Other companies were encouraged by this and felt even more confident. This period can only be described as a carnival of demons.
Some pastry shops and restaurants even took the opportunity to launch cakes containing vampire bone powder, thick soups containing vampire blood factors, vampire XX with aphrodisiac effects, and various snacks and health products containing vampire factors. This reminded Luke of the so-called Kaiju, which was valuable all over.
It seems that now, as long as something is labeled with the name 'vampire factor,' all products will become exceptionally easy to sell. Anyway, whether they have it or not, the ingredient list will mostly indicate that they have vampire factors. As for whether they actually have it, the public doesn't know. If someone questions it, some companies will even display the few vampires in their company to show that they really have raw materials!
As for the issue of why these raw materials are still alive and kicking and look very healthy after they have sold so many products, that is another story. Anyway, what is vampire factor? How is it extracted? Does the extraction actually harm the raw materials? They have a whole set of biological experts to prepare a忽悠,呸, an explanation package for them.
Anyway, as long as Hebron, the true authority on vampire factors, doesn't open his mouth and砸盘子, then they have nothing to fear! Moreover, they are not truly ignorant. They have long learned from Norman's good example and donate a large sum of money to Hebron's Brooklyn Charitable Foundation with every profit they make, ostensibly to show love, but actually as hush money and protection fees. Anyway, they don't care how Hebron spends or uses this money.
So now, as long as you actually have vampires in your hand, you can add vampire factor ingredients to your products! This is a threshold! Therefore, those who have vampires treat them as treasures. How can they do something that kills the goose that lays the golden eggs? Vampire factor? They don't even know what the hell vampire factor is! They only know that with it, their products sell very well!
However, when the market begins to saturate quickly, these merchants have no choice but to find new models and begin to卷.
For example, they started to emphasize the vintage of the vampires, etc. Some capable people even contacted Norman Osborn, wanting him to take the lead and have Hebron and the official authorities issue a vampire association to register and evaluate the vampires in their hands, and issue certificates that can be queried online!
At that time, those with certificates, high certificate levels, and high vintages will undoubtedly be able to sell at more expensive prices, while those with insufficient vintages and low rating levels will naturally not be able to sell at high prices!
In even more extreme cases, in addition to certificates, product quotas will be allocated based on the number of vampires each company owns. Each level of vampire will have a fixed amount of products for sale based on its quantity. Under a certain limit on the number of vampires, you can only sell so much of the product. If the product sales quota is exceeded, you will be warned and fined.
This sales method can also be explained in another way, for example, the vampire factors that each vampire can extract are limited. If you exceed it, you must be falsifying, and subsequent products will definitely not contain vampire factors, etc.
With these combined punches, the private market has basically been divided up. The melee will gradually move towards the right track. When you want to make a living from vampire factors, the number, vintage, and level of vampires will become explicit thresholds. It may even give rise to another business: cloning vampires, artificially 'cultivating' vampires, etc.
Although the vampire factor market has not yet reached the time of true saturation and the start of内卷, if there are no accidents in the future, it will develop in roughly the same way as above. For example, Norman Osborn has personally visited Hebron several times during this period, and talked eloquently with Luke and Ina about his business plans. Every time he comes, he reveals in his words that he wants to cooperate with Hebron to a certain extent. He doesn't even need Hebron to contribute money, he just needs Hebron to tacitly cooperate with his plan.
Norman's business plan is a similar plan. When he and Ina have completely discussed the issue of interests, at least half of the various vampire factor companies that are emerging like mushrooms after the rain will die first, and then half of them will be merged after a while. In the end, only a few, such as Osborn Industries, will be able to survive and enjoy the greatest benefits of vampire factors.
Norman's only headache now is that even if he uses a lot of connections, it is difficult to obtain many high-level vampires. The Battle of Brooklyn was undoubtedly a feast, but the ones who divided up those high-level vampires were the official army, S.H.I.E.L.D., and Hebron. When Norman woke up and started operating, these vampires had almost been allocated and divided up.
First of all, Hebron obtained the smallest quantity, but the best quality! Because only Luke has the technology, and currently only Hebron can manufacture finished longevity potions and self-healing potions, so of course he gets to pick first. Then there are S.H.I.E.L.D. and the official major laboratories, who also want to unlock the secrets of vampire factors and create their own longevity potions.
Under these circumstances, Norman can only collect some of the inventory held by some congressmen and generals.
However, after discussing with Nick and Stark, Luke completely threw these things out. In his mind, this matter is already over. The rest, whether it is the official various studies or Norman Osborn's vampire factor business map, has nothing to do with him.
Now, the only thing that can still make him think about it is the matter of the Infinity Stones and the mages.
