Chapter 260: A Gathering of Meat Eaters
Setagaya Ward, Phoenix Temple.
The birthday party is held at six o'clock in the evening, and before six o'clock, the guests will naturally arrive.
Honorable people will arrive a little later.
Like those executives of various companies who are attached to the Phoenix Courtyard Group for dinner, as long as they are not abroad, they must arrive at the Phoenix Courtyard home early.
They basically arrived at the Phoenix Courtyard house an hour in advance, at five o'clock, and the housekeepers were responsible for receiving them.
The place where it is placed is also in the side hall.
There were many guests who participated in Hu Die's birthday banquet, and according to their identity and status, they were placed in different places and had different levels of hospitality.
Even with thousands of guests present, everything is in order.
As the future heir of the group, the people who need her to entertain are either the elders of the Phoenix House family or important business partners.
These people were entertained in the main hall.
It was still early, and not many foreign business partners came early.
Only those elders of the Phoenix Courtyard family, they rushed to the scene with the juniors in advance.
No matter what contradictions there are internally, externally, everyone is still in harmony, showing the unity of the Phoenix Academy.
"Mei Ji, you're really getting prettier."
"Second uncle, thank you for the compliment, Mio is also very beautiful."
A smile appeared on her face, and she wore her long blonde hair tied up on the top of her head, wearing a tiara-like headband made of sterling silver and set with sparkling diamonds.
Long tassels hang down the temples, strung with gemstones, and the ear clips are luxurious without looking tacky.
Mihime of Phoenix Temple is wearing a dress, and this dress is a costume carefully selected by her, Nomura, and Yoshikawa.
The color of the dress is lilac, which always covers the knees, and the surface has complex patterns in the style of ancient Egypt, showing a mysterious aristocratic temperament.
Worn by her, it looks particularly noble.
"Haha, where can my Mio compare to you."
Hearing the second uncle's sigh, Mei Ji of the Phoenix Courtyard glanced at it, felt a little strange in her heart, and asked, "Where is the third uncle?" ”
"He's gone to Africa."
The brief pause seemed to hint at something, and Mei Ji of Phoenix Academy noticed that the second uncle also had a strange expression on his face.
It can be seen that there are some things that he is inconvenient to say directly, so he can only say them in this vague tone.
After all, this is the way this world is.
If the plan is successful, it will naturally be sought after by tens of thousands of people.
If it fails, everyone wants to cut off with that person at the speed of light, when nothing has happened.
Regarding whether the third brother is alive or dead in Africa, he does not know, he can only say that living is Hu Die's kindness.
If you don't live, you can only say that you deserve it.
The power struggle of the big family is so cruel.
"Yes."
The expression on Meiji's face in Phoenix Temple was calm, and she didn't ask more.
The third uncle wants to take the initiative to go to Africa, which is impossible, it can only be transferred from his mother.
If her mother didn't tell her the specific reason, she didn't need to get to the bottom of it.
She believed her mother must have done so for a reason.
Phoenix Courtyard Mei Ji walked to the next guest and finished entertaining the people of the Phoenix Courtyard family.
She also needs to simply go to the side rooms where the executives of each company are located to show them the demeanor of the future heir.
It's obviously my mother's birthday party, but the people who are busy working outside are her and those housekeepers.
Phoenix Courtyard Meiji complained in her heart.
……
The hall outside was full of people, but it was not a guest that Hu Die needed to entertain in person.
There weren't many guests who really needed her to entertain.
She stayed in the conference room of the Phoenix Courtyard, where she received the helmsmen from the six major consortia.
There were no outsiders around, and out of secrecy about the meeting, there was not even a person to pour water.
In the past, Hu Die poured tea for the people present, but now he doesn't need to.
It has nothing to do with the birthday star, in their eyes, the birthday is not a celebration, but just a reason for each other to gather together to discuss things.
The real reason is that the six major consortia have died one after anotherSumitomo Taishi and Takashi Mitsui.
The person who succeeded later, who was older than Hu Die, could follow the rules of the silver six-pointed star, and the status was never determined by age, but by the order in which the six-pointed star was added.
Hu Die is a member of the Silver Hexagram in front of them, and his status is no longer the lowest.
Pouring tea is such a thing, naturally she doesn't need to do it, but Mitsui Araju, who recently succeeded Takashi Mitsui, pours tea for the people present.
He knew the rules very well, one person had a cup, placed the tea in front of them separately, and then sat down by himself without speaking.
On such occasions, nature is opened by Iwasaki, the oldest qualified.
"The situation has been very bad recently, and I believe everyone already knows that the KGB people broke into Long's estate in England and killed the people on the scene, disguised as a burglary.
The British police used this conclusion to characterize the case. ”
When Iwasaki Izo said this, he was still a little scared.
He is also based in the UK.
If the KGB hadn't chosen Mitsui, it would probably have chosen him.
In the end, it is still not safe abroad, and there is no such huge network of connections at home for him to use.
It made his ears and eyes seem extremely dull.
Of course, the country is not a safe place either.
He wanted to flee the country in the first place, and that's why Dior was here.
With that one here, any high-ranking official in the country, or a big capitalist like them, may become a fish on the chopping block and be slaughtered by him.
"We can't continue to be passive like this, we must find a superpower who can compete with Dior as soon as possible."
"Last week's Otherworlds was supposed to be a good opportunity, but Emily from the Task Force wasted that opportunity and didn't know how to poach people from the Otherworlds to deal with Dio."
"Griffith and Dio don't deal with each other, but in the end they are still apostles of the same world, and they have not risen to a hostile state, so it is difficult for him to help."
"The attitude of the other world is also worth considering, if the future Eagle of Light has ideas for us, how can we defend against it in the future?
It's always been their one-way way to contact our side of the world, and we don't have any way to actively enter the other world. ”
Listening to their words, Hu Die picked up the tea, took a sip slowly, moistened his throat and said, "If you discuss those now, you can't come up with any plan."
The key is to find the tritium that killed the second son of the BlackRock Group and the superpower who is suspected of having the ability to become a beast.
If they are subdued by Dior, we will be in trouble. ”
"The question is that we can't find a clue, are all superpowers so good at hiding themselves?"
Mitsui Araoshou couldn't help but speak, and it was only after he took over his father's position that he knew that Dio was a superpower.
His three views were directly shattered, and he quickly understood the reason why his father spared no effort to pursue Dior.
Mitsui Arashou, too, continued to use the Mitsui family connections to search for relevant clues, but the result was nothing.
The only known fact is that Hayakawa Inaka is not tritium.
That female high school student is dating online, falling in love with a cowherd, and in order to raise a cowherd, she is selling herself in a custom shop to make money.
"BlackRock's recent reaction is a bit intriguing, as if it has a connection with the Takizawa Group."
"It's not like, but they're already in contact with how to cooperate, we have wasted too much time and money on superpowers, and we can't continue to let the expansion of the Takizawa Group continue."
Hu Die is particularly concerned about this matter, her age is not as old as Iwasaki and the others, and she has time and energy.
Rather than a superpowered person who can't get a quick return, she wants to bring down the Takizawa group and embezzle their industry.
"Since that's the case, let's focus on the Takizawa Group first, the BlackRock Group is a little too greedy."
Iwasaki Izo opened.
Now, more than ever, he is eager to have funds, and only a huge amount of money can support all kinds of experiments.
He will never allow the rise of a huge group here in Japan that can compete with the six major consortia and the Phoenix Academy.
Resources are limited, and the establishment of that kind of group is to divide the cake that they deserve.
Sumitomo Kisai said slowly, "The funds related to the experiment need to be re-injected.
The last 3 billion yen invested has been used up. ”
"Is there any progress?"
Iwasaki doesn't care about the money consumed, he just wants to get a progressive result.
"Failure, from the mental to the physical, the researchers used various methods and failed.
The race tested, from the East to the West, even those in Africa tried.
They have developed Agent X in a way that can stimulate the body's potential.
It's just that people who do that kind of thing often die very quickly, and their organs will become decaying. ”
"It's about compressing the stimulant into a high concentration and injecting it into the human body."
Iwasaki Izo said with a look of dissatisfaction on his face, "Have you supervised those laboratory people well?"
We want results, not a bunch of crooks who want to cheat money! ”
"I carefully supervise every process to ensure that there is no link that allows them to cheat the funds, and all the expenses are clearly calculated, the place of origin, electricity, and medicines, including the population purchased by the Baichuan Group.
It can only be said that the daily cost of the experiment is quite a lot. ”
"Okay, don't complain about that, we'll pay you later, and each family will pay another billion yen, if it's not enough."
The research and development of superpowers is destined to be a scientific research activity that continues to burn money.
They knew in their hearts that there would probably be no results in the short term, but it was impossible to stop injecting money into it.
Not only them, but also the governments of the United States and Japan are not investing in this money-burning campaign.
Hu Die actually doesn't want to burn money, it's just that they all invest money, she doesn't invest, if she comes up with any results in the future, she won't be able to share without burning money.
For the dream of eternal life that is possible, she can only throw money into it like others.
Next, they discussed the situation in China, how to annex the Takizawa Group, and the strategic cooperation between overseas producers to deal with the current financial crisis.
The thirty years that disappeared are the country and the people, not on their behalf.
The consortium's overseas industry is booming.
After agreeing on everything, a housekeeper knocked on the door and said, "Mrs. Hu Die, the director of the CIA, John, is here." ”
