Lu Yuan's expression immediately darkened.
Was this why Lu Jin wanted to leave them?
Because the enemy he was facing wasn't an ordinary person, but a conglomerate that truly controlled the world's financial lifeline!
The resources and manpower these people could use were much more powerful than He Chengjian's.
Lu Jin thought that they could escape He Chengjian's pursuit, but they couldn't escape the pursuit of these conglomerates that controlled the world's financial lifeline?!
Gu Nianzhi couldn't take her eyes off the TV. Her hands unconsciously balled into fists and covered her mouth as she nervously waited for their reactions.
In fact, the small conference room was silent for a moment before a few chuckles rang out.
Then, more and more people laughed. Although there were only seven or eight people in the room, the sound of everyone laughing together was still quite impressive.
On the television, Lorraine seemed to be angered by everyone's reaction. He sneered, "Do you think it's funny? Do you think it's a fantasy? But our Lorraine family's laboratories in New York, Berlin, and Huaxia are working hard and have recently made breakthroughs! I believe that soon, you'll be lining up with money to beg me to improve your genes! "
So powerful?
The people in the room looked at each other and saw the doubt in each other's eyes.
Everyone sitting here was a smart person. For them, a beautiful blueprint and an exciting slogan were not enough to convince them, because they were good at doing so themselves.
Only by taking out real evidence, and only real evidence, like real gold and silver, could he make them believe in him, make them worship him, and then become his followers.
Lorraine's gaze swept across these people's faces and saw that their expressions had changed from disbelief to skepticism. He secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as they could believe a little, it would be fine.
Because he needed money, a lot of money, to support his biological genetic laboratories all over the world.
He needed to convince more people to join his project, and thus inject new funds to keep the project running better.
Lorraine waited for a while to let his skepticism settle. Just as he was about to add fuel to the fire, he suddenly saw the silent Corsican sitting opposite him stand up.
This man was Lu Jin, disguised as von Rolsten.
He was wearing a tailored tuxedo and a silver pocket watch chain on his chest.
He asked in confusion, "Mr. Lorraine, I remember that your project started with your great-great-grandfather, right? Hasn't it been almost a hundred years? "
Lorraine paused for a moment, then quickly said with a smile, "Yes, my great-great-grandfather was the initiator of this project."
"If I'm not wrong, your family's project made great progress after World War II. Can you tell me in detail how you made the breakthrough after World War II?"
The corner of Lorraine's mouth twitched imperceptibly, but he maintained his gentlemanly smile and said, "These are our scientific secrets. Please forgive me for not being able to comment."
"… But you want us to invest." Lu Jin hit the nail on the head and said sharply, "You didn't even tell us your specific plan, and you want us to invest money. Even if it's a Ponzi scheme, it wouldn't be so outrageous, right?"
"Even if you're just painting a cake to appease your hunger, you should at least paint a cake for us to see …"
The people in the room burst into laughter again.
Even Gu Nianzhi and Lu Yuan, who were in front of the television, couldn't help laughing.
"Don't you trust my family?" Fortunately, Lorraine's face was already red from the sun, so no one noticed that he was actually blushing awkwardly.
In front of the TV, Gu Nianzhi clicked her tongue and said, "Why do white people like to tan themselves? Look at the dark look on his face. It can be said that he's very thick-skinned. "
On the TV screen, Lu Jin put his hands in the pockets of his tuxedo and shook his head disapprovingly. "Business is business. I believe that everyone here is smarter than me and knows what kind of plan is worth investing in."
"Mr. Rolesder, what do you mean?" Lorraine's expression darkened even more. "If you're willing to invest, I'd welcome it. I understand if you don't want to. But please don't stop other people's desire for genetic technology. "
Lu Jin scoffed. "Mr. Lorraine, don't try to change the subject. Please answer my question. How much money has been spent on the laboratory supported by your family over the years, what results have been achieved, what is the market conversion rate, and what is the profit model and prospects? "
"If you want to take this opportunity to ask us for investment, don't you want to prepare a powerpoint beforehand?"
Lorraine narrowed his eyes and looked Lu Jin up and down. "Mr. Rolesder, I still stand by what I said. The experiments done in our laboratory are patented and can't be made public. As for the profit prospects, I can say that we're only one step away from success. When the perfect gene appears, everyone's returns won't just be one or two times, but a hundred, a thousand, or even ten thousand times! "
"You make it sound better than you sing. But you still won't tell me the reason. " Lu Jin raised his gold-rimmed glasses and said coldly, "Then, let me tell you the reason."
His gaze swept across the faces of everyone in the meeting room. He was cold, sharp, and inhuman.
"The reason why Mr. Lorraine found this opportunity to promote his family's business is because they've invested for so long, nearly a hundred years, but until now, they still haven't gained anything!"
Lu Jin picked up the remote control on the round table and turned on the projection screen on the wall. He connected it to the special iPad he had brought with him and said, "I have a copy of the Lorraine family's balance sheet and cash flow here."
On the projection screen, several financial statements were displayed.
The people in the room were familiar with these financial statements. With a casual glance, they realized that there was a big problem with the Lorraine family's finances.
"… Do you know why Lorraine is so eager to promote their results? Because he's looking for someone to take over. " Lu Jin pointed at the numbers on the projection screen with the remote control. "Look, they've spent so much money, but the return has been zero. What does this mean? This means that their experiments haven't yielded any results at all! "
"This so-called 'superhuman' perfect gene experiment is a fantasy that goes against the laws of nature and science!" Lu Jin spoke passionately. "I won't even give you the word 'sci-fi' because you don't deserve it!"
Gu Nianzhi was dumbfounded.
She finally understood where her "drama queen" gene came from..
If someone who didn't know the details of Lu Jin's words, they would have been completely convinced by him and believed that it was impossible for a "perfect gene" to appear in humans.
In fact, it was in Lu Jin's hands that the first "perfect gene" in human history was born!
"We've got results!" Lorraine was forced into a corner by Lu Jin, so he had no choice but to reveal the latest results in his laboratory. "Our laboratory in the Huaxia Empire has recently achieved major results! A DNA sample that is very close to the 'perfect gene' will arrive in New York tonight. Our scientists will take over and conduct a full verification! "
