"[addressing businessmen aboard his Skyship 6000] Gentlemen. For centuries alchemists tried to make gold from base metals. Today, we make microchips from silicon, which is common sand, but far better than gold. Now, for several years, we had a profitable partnership, you as manufacturers, while I acquired and passed on to you industrial information that made you competitive, successful. We are now on the unique position to form an international cartel to control not only production, but distribution of these microchips. There is one obstacle... [throws microchips onto the table, which splits up and out comes a model of a familiar city] Silicon Valley, near San Francisco."
