Chapter 33: Magic
Wood, the security director of the Titan Company, woke up from his sleep and was startled when he suddenly saw that there was another person in front of the bed, but after seeing that it was Wang Zhenling, he also became ecstatic.
"You know, after you disappeared, we searched for you everywhere and couldn't find you, damn it, everyone was going crazy during that time.
What did you do?
Oh my God, the way you look is barely the same as it was ten years ago. Did you go to surgery too?
Haha, just kidding, we've improved the surgery so much now that there will be one failure in 100,000 people.
But now our company is going bankrupt......"
This Wood chattered endlessly, and told Wang Zhenling almost everything that had happened in the past ten years.
But Wang Zhenling was still shocked when he heard that the Titan Company was almost bankrupt.
Although there was a bit of exaggeration in Nawood's tone, Wang Zhenling clearly remembered that Titan was the largest giant cross-border enterprise in the world's market capitalization.
Everyone wants immortality, which means that almost everyone has to spend on Titan.
Even from top to bottom, everyone is willing to escort Titan.
Why did such a powerful company end up in such a situation in just ten years?
"Isn't it because our technology is too successful?
When the success rate of our surgery has increased dramatically, the damned politicians, the rich people, who have already had surgery, will no longer be interested in our company.
They already have a long lifespan of two or three hundred years, which is enough for them to enjoy. Wood grumbled.
"And what about ordinary civilians?"
"Most of them can't afford the surgery, and although our technology has improved a lot, the cost is still very high, and the government needs to subsidize most of the money to perform the surgery!
But can you imagine that you would spend so much money on something that has lost its usefulness?
In the past, those civilians were still able to work, and they were able to generate value for the capitalists.
But what is the use of them now? What is the use of each one other than consuming resources and lying at home and playing games?
If it weren't for the moral considerations, and other constraints, do you think those civilians would still be able to get all kinds of cheap food and entertainment for free like this?"
"Cheap entertainment is the best way for the government to anesthetize ordinary civilians!"
Hearing this, even Wang Zhenling couldn't help but sigh.
"So, our company's main business is almost finished.
Those greedy goshawks, with enough time, forced our company to hand over the operation.
For the sake of the people, it is impossible for our company to develop the second stage of life-prolonging technology in a short period of time.
He also said that we dare not monopolize the future of mankind......
And now, it's not all carved up by those powerful chaebols.
There is not even a shadow of the second stage of surgical technology!"
Wood grumbled.
"It would have been nice if you had been there, with you as a powerful man in charge, we would not have been afraid of the threats and temptations of those people in the first place.
But the good thing is that although our main business is over.
But after all, our company still has a very strong technical reserve, and it is still very competitive in various fields such as medical treatment.
However, we are no longer the biggest company in the ball and have dropped to eighth place in the rankings.
Okay, let's not talk about that. Mr. Presiding, do you want to meet President Li?"
"Shall we?"
Wang Zhenling is indispensable, anyway, he just came to this world this time to relax, in fact, there is not much time to do.
The Wood was a high-ranking figure at the Titan Corporation and soon contacted the company's president.
And that Mr. Li naturally happily prepared a small welcome reception for Wang Zhenling......
Of course, this is also the reason why I know that Wang Zhenling doesn't like to be lively.
This made Wang Zhenling once again realize that the life of the upper class in this world was different from that of ordinary people.
When ordinary people eat nutritious meals that look similar to Indian food, and lie at home all day playing games.
And the real rich are eating all kinds of foods that are naturally grown and raised.
Even in many cases, they try to abandon those high-tech products and insist on using manual services.
And they even cling to their previous way of life and entertainment and so on.
The so-called luxury is like this, it must be incompatible with all living beings and be different.
When President Li saw Wang Zhenling, he was very happy, gave Wang Zhenling a big hug, and said with a smile: "If you hadn't killed that monster and got the test sample,
It is very difficult for us to improve the surgical technique to the current situation...... It's all your credit!"
"However, if it weren't for the improved technology, the company wouldn't be in the situation it is in today!" Wang Zhenling said.
President Li laughed: "Haven't we been able to develop more efficient surgical techniques today?"
Believe me, we're going to be in a much tougher situation......
If the real magnates lose patience again, they will definitely force us to hand over the technology and then find a way to continue researching it ourselves!"
Wang Zhenling shrugged his shoulders and did not refute. Apparently he agrees with that, too.
It's really longevity genetic modification surgery that is too tempting and amazing!
"If the company encounters any trouble, you can talk to me!"
Wang Zhenling remembered that at the beginning, the company promised his treatment.
President Li suddenly showed a happy smile: "Great, even if there is something that needs Mr. Wang's help today."
I've already invited a few big people over, maybe Mr. Wang can show them what true power is!"
Wang Zhenling suddenly realized, it seems that everything has been arranged for this President Li!
Okay, just do me a favor.
Anyway, for Wang Zhenling, it's not a big deal!
In the small living room of President Li's villa, several so-called bigwigs were gathering together in well-dressed clothes to smoke cigars.
"What did this guy Li do mysteriously invite us all to?"
"Who knows, maybe he'll try to do a magic trick for us?" said someone laughing with humor.
Everyone here is a powerful person, and each one of them is an existence that can make the whole earth shake by stomping his feet.
Of course, President Li, who is the president of the Titan Company, also belongs to this class, otherwise it would be impossible to invite these people over.
However, listening to their tone, it seems that they lack enough respect for President Li.
