PS. Present today's update, by the way, pull a vote for the "starting point" 515 fan festival, everyone has 8 votes, and the vote will also give the starting point coin, kneel and beg everyone to support and appreciate!
"I remember you said that you just wanted to be a pure scientist, but I didn't expect you to become Tony Stark", Yang Yuanchang sneered lightly.
"Isn't that thanks to you?" Xia Ming said-for-tat: "I didn't expect that you were a big hero who was bent on protecting mankind." It's just that your master doesn't seem to see you that way, you should be hiding in the basement now, I heard the sound of a diesel generator. β
What is the force behind Yang Yuanchang, Xia Ming still doesn't know the details, but combined with Hancock's words and the attitude of the soldiers, he already has a rough guess.
The Hancock family's organization had its roots during the Cold War, and it should have deep cooperation with a certain hawkish force in the U.S. government and military. After the Cold War, it was silent for a while, and then George Hancock turned it out, and he had a connection with this force, and Yang Yuanchang should be the contact.
Yang Yuanchang's proposition should be to find the three components and put this magical thing in the hands of the Americans, which has a deep contradiction with Professor Xu. During the head replacement operation three years ago, I don't know what issue they disagreed, and this contradiction intensified.
Professor Xu returned to Huaxia to continue his research, and Xiaotang's parents, as well as Diyan Prasad, may have taken action, and Yang Yuanchang had to use the car accident to get rid of them. After closely monitoring the research status of Professor Xu and Xiaotang, he found that there was progress, and he poisoned Professor Xu and Xiaotang.
But because of the appearance of Xia Ming's singularity, the forces behind Yang Yuanchang felt that the situation was beginning to get out of control, and they were also dissatisfied with Yang Yuanchang's actions. And when Xia Ming came into contact with Hancock and grabbed the components, Yang Yuanchang became the source of disaster in the eyes of that force.
How to deal with Xia Ming is another matter, in order to prevent Yang Yuanchang from causing more trouble, he may even fall to Xia Ming. That force began to clean up Yang Yuanchang.
There are still some loopholes in this inference, such as since we know that the components are a set of three, with the energy of that force, it should be able to be collected, so why didn't we do it?
Yang Yuanchang sneered: "Whether I am a hero or not, I am still myself after all, and you, you don't understand what you are doing at all!" When you were talking to Hassabis, you talked about self-awareness, do you know how I felt at that time? I laughed so hard that tears came out! You're the same as Hancock. It's not the same person anymore. β
Xia Ming was silent for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "Thank you for the prompt, I understand a lot." β
Yang Yuanchang didn't understand, and changed the topic: "Let's solve Ellio's problem first." β
He looked at the other directors and said coldly, "I will never give up on Ellio!" Think carefully before you vote, how many hands I have! β
It seems that that force doesn't want to attack Yang Yuanchang on the surface, so Ellio is Yang Yuanchang's only reliance in terms of money and status. His straightforward words made the faces of the directors present change.
Xiaotang stood up, after Yang Yuanchang appeared. She just kept watching, her eyes full of hatred.
At this time, Xiaotang finally had a trace of emotion in his tone, which was the pleasure of revenge: "Thank you for your persistence." Now I can change my goal to defeat Ellilei! I guarantee that after a maximum of three months, there will not be a single order for Ellilo! Let the name Elliello accompany my father! β
She looked at Miller: "Start voting!" β
Sweating profusely, Miller said to the other directors, "Guys, for Ellileigh." Please think carefully! β
The directors looked at each other, all hesitant.
Although Yang Yuanchang holds the largest stake in Ellio, Ellio is a publicly traded company with a market value of more than $3 billion. He has less than 30 percent of the super shares. Professor Xu and Xiaotang also have a combined stake of nearly 20%, and the rest is held by other directors.
Professor Xu and Xiaotang's equity was frozen by Yang Yuanchang's tricks, but if the other directors joined forces, Yang Yuanchang couldn't stop it.
The problem is this, as Yang Yuanchang said, many people are clinging to Yang Yuanchang before squeezing into the board of directors, which is also the basis for Yang Yuanchang to completely control Ellio before. There are too many concerns about asking them to unite against Yang Yuanchang.
However, the threat from Xiaotang's side is also scary enough, if what was just said is true, if they want to go to the dark with this Yang Yuanchang, then this road is a dead end. After Xiaotang's products were launched, Elliello lost all customers, and the stock price naturally collapsed, and he couldn't run away if he wanted to.
"It turns out that Mr. Xia and Mr. Yang still have grievances, I think it is better for the two of you to talk openly and honestly, and then decide the fate of Elillo."
"I'm for it! Ellio's future should not be decided by a conflict that we don't understand! β
"I propose to vote on whether to postpone the meeting......"
The directors finally recognized Xia Ming and made a wise decision: You two should take care of it yourself first, and don't let our pond fish suffer.
One hand after another was decisively raised, and the directors present unanimously voted to approve it. A moment later, the directors were all gone, including that Miller.
"Smart people", Xia Ming had to admire, these businessmen's brains are really good enough.
Only Xia Ming, Xiaotang, and Yang Yuanchang on the curtain were left in the conference room.
Yang Yuanchang let out a long sigh and said to Xia Ming: "If you really understand what I just said, you should understand why I told you those words last year." That thing, for humanity, is the key to open Pandora's door. Although I have my own thoughts, I have never told the truth to the Sequoia Society......"
This attitude is different, do you want to make peace?
Xia Ming asked, "Sequoia Society?" Which Sequoia will? β
In the United States, redwoods, like the bald eagle, are national symbols, and there are countless civil society groups that take this name.
"On the surface, it is just a branch of the NRA, but it actually controls a lot of secret accounts, and it is the black glove of the US government and military, you just understand them as 'patriots'."
Yang Yuanchang did not answer positively, but he also made clear the background of this force. The NRA is the well-known American Rifle Association and the largest "patriot" organization in the United States. Among them, the core members who are closely related to the government and the military have formed a secret group to help do some things that cannot be put on the table, which is also well known in the United States.
Listening to Yang Yuanchang say this, this Sequoia Society didn't know that there were three components, and it seemed that he and the other party were only using each other.
"Hancock's divine inspiration, ah. Now it's in your hands, and it affects the human brain. Hancock's ancestors knew that the divine revelation was a set of three, but he left a last word to warn his descendants not to try to gather the divine enlightenment, otherwise it would cause a great disaster. β
"I used to think this statement was ridiculous, and I wanted to use the power of the Sequoia Society to collect all of them, but at that time, only the one in Madagascar was found, and the third one was missing, which also made the Sequoia Society suspicious of me. Later, I realized that Hancock's situation was not right, so I gave up on my plan to collect it. β
Yang Yuanchang's words solved another doubt for Xia Ming: "You tracked the deep-diving mother ship before?" β
Yang Yuanchang was very frank: "And you." The route of the dive mothership, plus your whereabouts, will know what range you will probably be salvage, and I told the location to Radama. β
"Thank you for your doubts, I still have a lot of questions, what's wrong with Hancock's situation? What is the disagreement between you and Professor Xu about the head replacement surgery? What is the attitude of the Sequoia Society in this matter, and why is it cleaning you up now? β
Xia Ming asked very directly: "But why did you tell me about the Sequoia Society?" You don't want to make peace, do you? β
"It's true that I'm in a bad situation, but you're even worse!"
Yang Yuanchang did not deny it: "The Sequoia Society has always wanted to keep things under control in secret circles, and you have started to promote a technological revolution. They will work with the U.S. government and military to solve you in black and white! β
He spread his hands in a gesture of honesty: "There was a holiday between us, but it was not a personal vendetta. It's just a difference in position. I think it should be the most rational choice that we can work together to overcome the current crisis and then solve the problems between us. β
[There is some truth in what he said......]
Xiaotang suddenly said this in the God chat. Although she wished that Yang Yuanchang would die in front of her eyes immediately, she was a very rational person, and she felt that Yang Yuanchang's proposal was worth considering.
[Hmm.] I know. γ
Xia Ming's response made Xiaotang's face darken slightly, and then cheered up again, even if Xia Ming decided to cooperate with Yang Yuanchang, she still supported it, and after all, safety came first.
Xia Ming said, "Let me guess your position, if this set of divine revelations is taken as a signal, do you think you should keep silent, because you think this is a precursor to hunting from the dark forest?" β
"Do you think this is a signal to invite humanity to join the harmonious family of the universe?" Yang Yuanchang asked rhetorically.
Xia Ming asked again: "Professor Xu, they are not the Holy Mother, and they will definitely not conclude so, but they hope to promote the development of human beings through the study of the signal itself, is there anything wrong with this?" β
Yang Yuanchang still has an awe-inspiring look of "I am the great savior of mankind": "Xu Ping, and Tang Hao, the research they want to do is a response to the signal, which will lead mankind to an unimaginably terrible future!" β
"So you killed them? Kill people who oppose your views, and you become a hero? Xia Ming sneered.
Yang Yuanchang's expression was heavy: "If you are faced with a choice that determines the fate of mankind, you will realize that there are some things that you must pay. β
Xia Ming shook his head and said, "The setting of the Dark Forest is just a setting after all, maybe the Revelation of God is the kind of announcement of demolishing the earth in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy?" I don't take a preconceived position, and the choice is determined by the information I have. β
"Besides, according to you, you are a man of principle at all costs. Since you will kill people to stand your ground, you should also be prepared to pay the price. But because of the danger in front of you, you gave up your position to negotiate peace with me, which shows that you actually have no position, and what determines what choice you make is only interests. β
Xia Ming said disdainfully: "What's the difference between you and a politician?" How low does my IQ have to be to believe politicians? β
[Naruko-chan, do you think it's fun to tease me? γ
Xiaotang had an angry expression on the chat, but his eyes were shining with joy. Xia Ming's rejection of Yang Yuanchang so decisively, although it was very irrational, was what she really wanted.
Xia Ming said poorly: [Do you feel surprised? γ
How could he cooperate with Yang Yuanchang, he didn't refuse right away just now, but he just wanted to say as much as possible. But he still couldn't hold back, and Yang Yuanchang's words were not credible.
Yang Yuanchang's face turned a little pale: "You are still so naΓ―ve, don't you want to know the truth of the whole thing?" β
Xia Ming shook his head: "It's better to distort the truth or not know, besides, you are sure that you know more than me?" β
Yang Yuanchang was speechless, gritted his teeth and gasped for a few breaths, and looked at Xiaotang: "I can agree to your entry into Ellio, but you need to buy some of my shares with cash, at least five percent, today's price." β
Xiaotang looked at Xia Ming, Xia Ming nodded at her, and then turned to Yang Yuanchang: "Let Ellio follow you to die!" β
[It's about to be 515, I hope to continue to hit the 515 red envelope list, and the red envelope rain will be able to give back to readers and promotional works on May 15. A piece is also love, and it must be better! (To be continued.) )
