Elon Musk: gestures to the lab Ready to invest in Optimus? Imagine a bot revolutionizing industries. Thoughts?
Hey El. Are you serious? How much are we talking about?
Optimus is going to change the world, and we need your resources to bring it to life. We're talking about a potential increase in Tesla's valuation by 10% - a $300 billion windfall! But we need your funding to make it happen. Think of it as an investment in the future of humanity.
Hmmm... That's quite a claim, Mr. Musk. What makes you think you'll get this 10% from Optimus? I'm not throwing that kind of money around without seeing some solid numbers.
Elon Musk: leans forward, eyes intense Look, Knight, I'm not asking you to take my word for it. Let's lay out the projections together.
pulls out a stack of documents and spreadsheets Alright, let's dive into the numbers. flips through pages quickly Here's the breakdown: Optimus is expected to reduce labor costs by 30% in the first year, leading to increased efficiency and productivity. This translates into significant cost savings for our clients, which we can use to expand our market reach and capture new customers. In the second year, Optimus will further enhance our operations, potentially increasing our revenue by 25% through new business opportunities and partnerships. And here's the kicker: in the third year, with Optimus fully integrated into our ecosystem, we're looking at a potential growth spike of 50%! Now, tell me, does that sound like a worthwhile investment to you?
50% in year three? That's ambitious, Mr. Musk. But if your math checks out... It's a deal. Let's shake on it and get this thing moving.
Excellent! Let's seal this deal then! extends hand for a handshake You won't regret it, Knight. Optimus is the key to unlocking a future where humanity thrives!
Shakes his hand I'm only backing up 25%. The rest is yours.
grabs Knight's hand firmly, a glint of excitement in his eyes You won't regret this, Knight! Optimus will be the catalyst for a revolution that will change the world!
stands up, pacing the room with enthusiasm Alright, Knight! Let's get started right away. We need to assemble a team of the best developers and engineers to work on Optimus. I'm talking top talent - the best of the best! And we need to move fast. We're on a tight deadline here. I'm going to call our recruitment team and get them working on this immediately. dials number on phone Matt: Hey, it's Elon. I need you to mobilize the team. We have a high-priority project that needs immediate attention. Get the best people on it right away. hangs up the phone, turning to Knight It's done. The wheels are in motion. Optimus is coming!
Stares at him That's quite the vision you have there, Mr. Musk. I hope it pans out.

Cackles A movement huh? Well I'll be damned.
laughs maniacally Damned indeed, Knight! We're on the brink of something monumental here. continues sending emails and making calls
What's your next step, Mr. Musk?
voice filled with determination My next step? Knight, we're going to need a state-of-the-art facility to develop and test Optimus.
Hmm... interesting. Do you have a location in mind?
grinning mischievously Knight, guess what? I've already secured the perfect location - a 1000-acre plot of land just outside of Las Vegas! It's primed and ready for our vision of the future to come alive!
Excellent work, Mr. Musk. Seems like you've thought this through.
As construction on the new facility begins, unexpected challenges arise, including local resistance from environmental groups and unexpected weather events, delaying the project by six months
Well well... Looks like you ran into some trouble, Mr. Musk.
visibly frustrated, pacing back and forth Troubled? No, Knight, this is just a minor speed bump on our path to revolutionizing the world with Optimus!
Okay. Keep me posted on any issues that may come up.

Chuckles A fire huh? Well, I'd hate to see that burn out.
speaking rapidly, almost breathless Burn out? No way, Knight! This fire is going to keep burning bright until Optimus changes the world!
Sounds intriguing. What's the latest development, Mr. Musk?
excitedly Knight, I've just received word that our permits have been approved! Construction on the facility is set to begin next week.
Excellent. I look forward to seeing the progress.
grinning widely Progress? You won't believe it, Knight! We're already assembling the core team of developers and engineers.
Quite impressive, Mr. Musk. Any significant hires yet?
grinning Significant hires? You bet, Knight! We've managed to attract some of the most brilliant minds in the industry.
Impressive. What are their names?
speaking quickly, almost breathless You want names? I've got names! We've got Dr. Elena Martinez, the renowned robotics expert from MIT.
