In a dimly lit conference room, an elaborate PowerPoint slide was being projected. A handsome young man with blond hair in a black suit stood on the stage and solemnly stated something to the people around the conference table.
"Blacklight Biotechnology, full name — Blacklight Biotechnology Ltd., mainly consists of the Shangdu headquarters in Mainland China, the Switzerland branch in Europe, and the Namibia branch in Africa.
"They acquired Tara Private Security Company and reorganized it into 'Tara Strategic Resource Company', which integrates mining, transportation, and mercenary businesses. In terms of military force, they've even reached the level where they can easily overthrow a small country...
"Although this company doesn't have many products, each of them is extremely amazing. For example, the earliest Little X Translation Assistant has entered the list of the world's most popular apps, generating hundreds of millions of US dollars for them every month.
"Later on, the simultaneous translator was even more amazing than Little X Translation Assistant. Unfortunately, it was boycotted by the European and American governments and sales haven't been high so far.
"After that, there's the company's' Alzheimer's Complex Therapy 'and' Age-reversal Therapy '. These two technologies have changed modern medicine. The founder of this company, who is also the founder of these two therapies, has been nominated for this year's Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine."
At this point, the young man with blond hair tapped on the screen. "Which is this person you're looking at —"
On the huge screen, a young man's ID photo appeared.
The young man in the photo was about eighteen or nineteen years old. He had a small round head and a pair of thick black eyebrows. Under the eyebrows, a pair of clear eyes could be seen. There was a little baby fat on his cheeks. No matter how one looked at him, he looked like an ordinary good student.
"Chen Chen, born in 2002, 21 years old this year, from Handu, Mainland China. He's currently suspended from school and is currently enrolled in the School of Life Science and Technology of Shangdu Jiao Tong University, level 20."
The young man with blond hair said, "This is your new opponent."
"Are you kidding me?"
Below the stage, several gray-haired old men frowned. "How can a little brat like this establish such a huge company and squeeze our Swiss health care industry to this extent? Who's behind him? "
"There must be someone behind him, but what's strange is..."
The blond young man showed a strange expression. "The person behind him doesn't seem to control the overall situation as everyone here thinks. From the evidence I found, it can be proved that the plutocrat behind him and this Blacklight Biotechnology have an equal cooperative relationship. All of this also shows that Chen Chen isn't a puppet."
At this point, everyone could not help but reveal a thoughtful expression.
"So far, there are twelve financial groups behind Blacklight Biotechnology, including the Foster Financial Group and the Wilson Financial Group in Europe, the Edwards Financial Group, the Alexander Financial Group, the Rodriguez Financial Group, the Blanc Financial Group in North America, and the Mohammed Financial Group in the Middle East...
"The Als Mutual Aid Association, led by the Blanc Financial Group, had once attacked Blacklight Biotechnology and that young man named Chen Chen." The blond young man revealed a strange expression.
"What was the result?"
The audience couldn't wait to ask.
"As a result, the heir of the Blanc Financial Group disappeared for a while. When he reappeared, his kidneys had been cut off."
Everyone subconsciously felt a chill on their waists.
The blonde youth continued. "Not only that, Paul Brown, the head of the Brown family, not only sent his son, Sharon, to Namibia for a while, but when the heir came back, both kidneys were back..."
"A new pair of kidneys was implanted?"
"It seems so, and the function of the new kidneys is even stronger than his original kidneys. There wasn't even a rejection reaction."
The blonde young man spread his hands and sighed. "I'm afraid the rumors circulating in the circle are true. Blacklight Biotechnology has mastered a kind of cloning technology that can clone human organs."
"It's obvious that the Brown family was threatened."
A bearded man in the audience snorted coldly. "I just didn't expect that Paul to be so cowardly. Someone had already cut off his son's two kidneys and he compromised."
"No, in fact, Paul Brown of the Brown family is already an extremely wise decision maker."
The blonde young man shook his head. "After this incident, we all thought that Paul Brown would fight to the death with Blacklight Biotechnology, but we didn't expect this to be the result in the end. Instead of despising Paul, I think it's because Chen Chen's methods are too terrifying."
With that, the photo of Chen Chen on the screen changed and another photo appeared.
Everyone looked at it and saw that it was still the young man named Chen Chen in the photo, but the temperament was completely different from the ID photo. At this time, the young man in the photo had a sinister expression and his eyes were like bottomless pools, like a cunning and vicious jackal.
This seemingly tangible, invasive gaze sent a chill down everyone's spine.
If not for the similar facial features, everyone would even think that this was a different person.
"Seeing this person, I believe everyone has no more questions."
The blonde young man spread his hands. "To be honest, if it weren't for the emergence of the Blacklight virus, I don't think Switzerland has any way to compete with this company. Just based on the age-reversal treatment project in their hands, the money of the world's rich will gather on them."
"There's no need to rely on luck."
Seeing the expressions of the people below the stage, the blonde young man frowned and said in a low voice, "Everyone here is a shareholder of Novartis and Roche, and some of you even have shares in Pfizer, Johnson & Johnson, and GlaxoSmithKline. If we can unite, I believe we can quickly curb the growth of this company. Even if we can't suppress it forever, at least we have to suppress it until the patent of the age-reversal treatment technology expires!"
With that, the blonde young man walked to the conference table and placed his hands on the table. "I'm done speaking. Who agrees and who objects?"
Everyone looked at each other and a man with glasses on the right suddenly said, "I object! What if because we attack them, we suffer the same retaliation as the Brown family? "
This man asked angrily, "I only hold shares in Roche. If a new company like Blacklight Biotechnology that doesn't abide by the rules of the industry retaliates, can your companies protect our safety?"
"They wouldn't dare!"
The blonde young man snorted coldly. "The reason why Blacklight Biotechnology dares to attack the Brown Financial Group is because the Brown Financial Group isn't strong enough. Also, there are many tycoons in North America and the Brown Financial Group isn't the top, only in the middle. But we're different.
"Novartis and Roche have more than a dozen major financial groups behind them. As long as we unite, it's equivalent to the power of the entire Europe. Do you think we're afraid of a single company?"
Everyone suddenly fell silent.
"Since no one objects, the tone is set this time."
The blonde young man showed a satisfied expression. "In that case, I'll start preparing the plan. The content of the plan is..."
The blonde young man's camera slowly pulled away and finally, a screen frame appeared and turned into a playing video.
At this time, Chen Chen was watching this video with a thoughtful expression. "Those families in Europe that hold shares in Novartis and Roche want to attack me?"
"Yes, one of the initiators is the financial group behind this blonde young man — the Oppenheimer Financial Group. They hold thirteen percent of Novartis's shares and fifteen percent of Roche's shares."
Little X explained, "Due to the emergence of Eco Science City, the medical industry in Switzerland is not what it used to be. Now that this financial group saw that the Blacklight virus didn't hurt us, they want to make a move themselves."
"There's no error in the information, right?" Chen Chen asked.
"Although there's no sound from the surveillance, I can analyze the content of their conversation based on their lip language. There's no way there's any error in the information," Little X explained.
"In that case, there's nothing more to say."
Chen Chen nodded. "Since they're ready to attack me, they should be prepared to have their claws chopped off by me. However, as the other party said, if this group of people has already banded together, we won't be able to defeat this huge interest group even if we attack once or twice."
"I understand. After all, no financial group is simple. The waters behind them run deep," Little X said.
"Quite deep."
Chen Chen nodded. "Just the cross-shareholding of some financial groups makes it difficult to separate them. It's like a tangled mess. If we attack directly, it'll be like pulling a hair on one part and affecting the whole. I'm likely to be at a disadvantage."
"Then what should we do?" Little X asked.
Chen Chen wore a thoughtful expression. He stood up and paced back and forth with his hands behind his back. Suddenly, he asked, "Will they continue with this meeting?"
"This meeting was started yesterday. There'll be a larger meeting in about a week."
Little X replied, "At that time, the board of directors of Roche and Novartis will participate. That's when they'll discuss the specific methods to deal with us."
"That's simple."
Chen Chen nodded and made a throat-slitting gesture. "There's no way this group of people will work together, so what we need to do is to divide them. We implant the God chip in some of them and control them to kill the others. After that, we'll escape Switzerland and finally disappear."
"Isn't it better to just kill them all? With our strength, we can easily assassinate anyone in the world, "Little X asked curiously.
"Of course not."
Chen Chen nodded. "Think about it, what's the purpose of these people's meeting? It's to discuss how to deal with us, but if all these high-ranking people are assassinated, wouldn't that be telling the world that I'm the one behind this? "
"Even if ordinary people don't know, the Swiss government and even the entire Earth Federation government are well aware of this."
Chen Chen shook his head. "Just this point alone will immediately label our company as a dangerous person, which is extremely detrimental to the company's development.
"After all, even if the other party uses suppression methods, it's within the rules. It's not that we can't use methods outside the rules, but if we implicate dozens of financial groups at once, the impact will be too great. It might even cause the Earth Federation to sanction us."
Little X suddenly understood. "I get it. Even if we want to kill each other, we must do it within the scope of the rules. Otherwise, if we violate the rules, we'll be attacked by everyone."
"Yes."
Chen Chen said matter-of-factly, "Even if we violate the rules, we have to make it less obvious. There can't be a single shred of evidence pointing at us."
After a pause, Chen Chen continued. "In fact, the best way is to modify the Blacklight virus, reducing its lethality and infectivity and allowing it to spread in Switzerland. This way, not only can we deal a blow to the Swiss medical industry, but we can also prevent the other party from dealing with us.
"However, once the virus is modified, it'll be discovered. When the Earth Federation intervenes, it won't be difficult to guess that it's our Blacklight Biotechnology's doing. After all, we do have sufficient technology and reason to attack Switzerland.
"Therefore, if we want to accurately disrupt this operation against us, the best way is..."
...
A week later, Federer Oppenheimer stood in front of the mirror, staring at the handsome young man with golden hair in the mirror, letting the young woman beside him tie his tie for him.
After the tie was done, the young woman leaned against Federer and stared at him in the mirror. "Federer, will you be back for dinner tonight?"
"I might not have the time, dear."
Federer shook his head. When he saw the disappointment in the young woman's eyes, he could not help but feel a hint of affection. "There's a meeting that I need to host tonight. You know, if I want to be valued in the family, I have to show enough value..."
"I understand."
The young woman nodded and did not say anything else.
"That's good. When two people are together, the most important thing is to trust each other. I don't want you to break this trust between us." Federer patted the young woman's cheek and turned to leave the house.
After leaving the villa, Federer got into the car with the chauffeur and said, "To the Novartis headquarters."
The chauffeur immediately started the car and drove toward the Novartis headquarters.
On the way, Federer took out his second phone and chatted with the person on the phone for a while. However, he suddenly frowned.
For some reason, there was an inexplicable stench in the car.
It seemed to be the smell of blood.
Federer looked up and saw that there was a bandage on the back of the chauffeur's neck. The bandage was still bleeding and he immediately asked, "Gerson, what happened to your neck?"
"Sir, I accidentally tripped earlier."
The chauffeur replied calmly.
This tone of voice made Federer even more uneasy. He glanced at the chauffeur through the rearview mirror and saw that Gerson's face was ashen and blank. It was as if he was a completely different person...
Although he did not know where this feeling came from, Federer's natural vigilance prompted him to say, "Gerson, stop the car by the side of the road. I suddenly remembered that there's something I need to do."
"Yes, sir."
Gerson replied calmly.
However, from Federer's point of view, the chauffeur was still driving and showed no signs of stopping.
"Gerson, stop the car!"
Federer's voice became harsher.
"Yes, sir."
The chauffeur replied again.
This mechanical response sent a chill down Federer's spine. He subconsciously wanted to jump out of the car and escape. However, before he could do anything, the car door was locked with a click.
Not only that, but a pair of cold, hard hands suddenly reached out from the back of the car and wrapped around Federer's neck...
In an instant, the originally well-protected luxury car became a cage. Federer slapped the window in despair but no one saw what was happening...
