Chapter 238: Deterrence
"Do you think I don't dare to press it? Since we have the strength to develop entropy weapons, we naturally have a way to throw it directly into the unrighteous city. β
The atmosphere once again fell into a strange embarrassment, and the two sides refused to give in to each other and were at a stalemate.
"Why don't we talk about each other's conditions?" Jack sighed, "You're giving me a lot of headaches like this. β
The situation now is not quite the same as the war between the war with Ari back then.
The battle between Steel Dome and Yari is mainly focused on space, so the two sides have a lot less restrictions on the use of sophisticated weapons, and they can fight to the death.
If Cattail's Entropy was on the ship, Steel Dome would have a hundred ways to deal with it, but the current situation is that they are on the ground, and they are too close to Injustice.
"It's supposed to be me who should have the headache, don't you also have a Star Destroyer that is powerful enough to destroy planets?"
"Let's talk like this and we're back to square one, Miss Chu."
Do not hesitate to destroy planets for the sake of a cattail company? The price is too great to be worth it.
The current situation on both sides is that both sides have the means to threaten the other, but no one dares to press the button first.
"Then I'll tell you about my conditions." Chu Yu sat up straight:
"First of all, the cancellation of the seizure of the cat tail company must not affect the normal operation of the cat tail.
Second, stop the persecution of cattail employees and restrictions on personal freedom. Finally, get your men out of the East 4th Ward. From today onwards, this will be the private domain of the Cattail Company! β
Chu Yu's words and sentences are not too embellished, but they clearly express their meaning.
Jack was silent for a long time, as if weighing the pros and cons, and then spoke in a deep voice:
"I can order the cancellation of the action against the cat's tail, and correspondingly, we also have our conditions."
He glanced around, and many of the low-ranking officers and soldiers quickly exited the room, leaving only a few people in the room.
Jack turned his gaze to Shen Yu, and now he believed that this strange guy from Xinghui was really here to mediate: "Mr. Shen can avoid it for a while?" β
"This is the beginning of the drive? Okay, okay, I'll go. Don't fight without me. Shen Yu stood up slowly and methodically, and walked out the door while lighting a cigarette.
"It's okay with both of them." Chu Yu is talking about Yao Han and Gu Yue.
Jack was also left with two superior officers, who appeared to be his henchmen. Now only the six of them are left here.
"My condition is that you hand over the research materials you got from Fellman." Jack crossed his hands on the table, "Don't play stupid, Miss Chu Ye." What you have done on the island of Yashu Sea, we know very well. β
"You Steel Dome scientists are really passionate about psionic research." Chu Yu quietly tried to say a word.
"You are the president of the company, and I am the chief of the planet, but in the end, we are still ordinary people, and there are some things that ordinary people cannot interfere in. Trust me, it's off-limits... When it comes to psionic things, it's not good for ordinary people. β
Everyman... I believe your nonsense.
However, it seems that his identity as a monk has not been revealed, and this should be Yu Chen's handiwork.
From Jack's words, Chu Yu heard tons of information: "In other words, you are also under pressure? β
"I can promise to withdraw the army, or I can hand over the East Fourth District to you, or even give the ownership of the main wasteland to Maowei... Of course, this is based on the relative security of both of us.
But Fellman's research materials, the steel dome cannot be lost, and I cannot afford to do so. There's a lot more to this stuff than you and I think. β
Compared to before, Jack's attitude seemed extremely sincere.
"In a way...... It is even more important than the Spirit Source Star. For some people at HQ, if destroying the Psitron could bring Fairman's research back, they would definitely choose to do so. β
"Are you talking to me too much?" Chu Yu was puzzled: "Maowei has no intention of taking refuge in the steel dome. β
"Just to emphasize, I'm not interested in digging into the corner of Starlight." Jack spread his hands, "After all, I just want to guard the territory of the spiritual source. This is also my responsibility as a director-in-chief. β
"I see."
Chu Yu pondered for a moment, and a secretive smile appeared on his face:
"I can agree to your terms, but wellβthe scoring period."
ββ
The negotiations lasted a whole day, and with the remote support of Yao Han and Gu Yue, as well as the base's think tank, Chu Yu and Jack signed various treaties.
One of the most important of these is called the Non-Aggression Pact between Cattail and Steel Dome, or the "Wasteland Peace Treaty" for short.
It was compiled with reference to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, which appeared in the history of heaven and man.
From the date of entry into force of the Wasteland Peace Treaty, the area of the Eastern 20 Wastelands west of the Third Continent urban agglomeration became the independent property of the Cattail Company, and the Cattail Company enjoyed all rule and jurisdiction.
At this point, a deterrent mechanism has been established between the cattail company with entropy and the steel dome.
The first layer of deterrence is the high-risk weapons in the hands of both sides that are enough to crush each other's cities.
The second layer of deterrence is Fairman's psionic research materials in Chu Yu's hands.
She wasn't stupid enough to give this thing back to the Steel Dome. After intense negotiations that almost escalated the conflict, the two sides set a deadline.
Decade.
Chu Yu divided Fellman's research into several parts and returned them to Steel Dome in batches over a period of ten years.
Ten years is the limit, and this is the result of the joint efforts of all the people at Cattail.
As soon as the news came out, the whole world was shaken.
Wasteland East Twenty, what is this concept? It's like biting off a piece of meat on the body of the steel dome!
As soon as the news of the establishment of a peace treaty between the two sides came out, the streets and alleys, wasteland and deserted towns were boiling.
Is the cat tail company trying to defy the sky, they can simply establish a country!
The name Chu Xiaoye once again climbed the hot search on major platforms, detonated the topic, and became the talk of people after dinner.
The young female president's entrepreneurial experience has been re-excavated, including the various events that have occurred in the past few years, such as promoting products for the benefit of the public and hunting for insects in the wasteland......
The name of "Queen of the Wasteland" has finally been confirmed, and more fans of Maowei and Chu Xiaoye have appeared on the Internet, and some people have even dug up the specific details of the anti-dumping negotiations, and the rumors are getting more and more evil:
What went to the meeting alone, bravely entered the enemy camp, faced the 100,000 army of the Steel Dome without changing his face, and even slapped Jack twice...... The narrator's vivid voice adds a touch of mystery to these rumors, and the name of the queen even tends to be almost deified.
Perhaps because everyone was dissatisfied with what the Steel Dome had done, the "Chu Xiaoye" who was the enemy of the Steel Dome naturally became the target of many people's worship.
Of course, there are praises, and naturally there are denigrations.
These denigrations also represent the thoughts of many:
Cattail's reasons for occupying the wasteland are not honorable. The two sides have reached peace on the surface, but in fact it is because of the illusion of entropy nuclear deterrence, and in order to protect itself, Maowei has put the lives of many ordinary people on the scale, which many people cannot tolerate.
The scolding war on the Internet continued, and all kinds of discussions were raised, and the protagonist of the matter, Chu Yu, was now lying on the small bed at the base of the shelter and falling asleep.
Gong Xiaoran put down a glass of water at the head of her bed, walked out lightly, and closed the door.
"It seems like the first time I've seen her so tired." Outside the door, Chen Qingyu was standing by the wall and waiting, "Is this still the Elder Chu I know?" β
"Shh
Gong Xiaoran smiled and made a silent gesture.
"Let her sleep, she's done enough. Now, it's our turn. β
