Just when everyone was inexplicably shocked, Yu Qi felt his body suddenly loosen and he began to fall headfirst at the speed of a freefall!
The ceiling of the venue was five or six meters high from the ground. Once he fell headfirst, he would either die or be crippled. Yu Qi suddenly let out a scream. Not only him, but all the people who were pressed on the ceiling also fell like dumplings. For a time, the entire venue was filled with screams.
However, just as Yu Qi instinctively closed his eyes and was about to make intimate contact with the ground, the impact he imagined did not come...
Yu Qi slowly opened his closed eyes, only to find that he was once again fixed in mid-air, only about one meter from the ground.
Immediately, an invisible push came and Yu Qi's body suddenly turned 180 degrees, turning from head to foot, and his feet stepped on the ground again.
"Phew..."
Returning to his seat in a state of shock, Yu Qi's face was already pale. He looked around with cold sweat, but saw that the others had also regained their freedom like himself. At this time, everyone looked at the man on the ceiling with an expression as if they had seen a ghost.
If it could be explained with magic before, then everything he had experienced now could no longer be explained by magic...
Wait a minute!
Suddenly, Yu Qi seemed to realize something. Just now, this group of people called out the man's name, which meant that except for himself and a few people, everyone who came to attend the meeting knew who this man was.
And this man's name was Chen Chen?
Huh?
Hearing this familiar name, Yu Qi thought for a while in a daze, then he seemed to realize something and suddenly raised his head!
He was Chen Chen!
At this moment, Yu Qi finally understood why the number one leaders of the four continents were gathered together, why a non-politician would appear in such an important venue, and why he was standing here as the keynote speaker...
There was only one reason, that was, he was the founder of Blacklight Biotechnology — a legendary figure who could make the North American government suffer a setback, who could expand the arms business to the Earth Federation in a private capacity, and even use his own developed technology to impact the entire human society!
Chen Chen!
It was just that in his memory, Chen Chen was clearly a young man, but now the one standing on the stage was a patient who was so thin that he was disfigured. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was terminally ill?
At this moment, a famous online picture flashed in Yu Qi's mind. In the picture, there was an old man with white hair and a few lines of text next to it:
A real researcher is wise, tranquil, and knows how to live. His secret is to do research in the morning, at noon, and at night. Look, he is almost 30 years old now, but he is still very energetic …
Let's not talk about Yu Qi's inner thoughts. At this time, the thin man opened his arms, slowly floated down from the ceiling, and then stood firmly on the ground. "Everyone, do you still think all this is magic?"
Everyone was silently wiping their sweat, and the audience was silent.
"In fact, the 'Weeping Angel' incident was not the first memetic incident on Earth.
Seeing that no one spoke, Chen Chen continued. His voice gradually deepened and reverberated in the conference room with a sense of oppression. "I believe that all of you still remember the 'This Man' incident that happened in Northern America and the 'Three Statues' incident two years ago. Those two incidents were also similar. It was just that we at Blacklight Biotechnology noticed it and calmly resolved it, so that our human civilization did not encounter the corresponding crisis."
"What!"
Several senior executives of Northern America immediately slammed the table, and Nancy stood up angrily. "The disappearance of the three statues two years ago was your doing?"
"Sorry."
Chen Chen nodded slightly, showing an apologetic smile. "If human civilization needs a person who carries the burden in the dark, then let us, Blacklight Biotechnology, bear all the sins."
"You..."
Nancy still wanted to say something, but was stopped by the senior official next to him.
"So, your Blackwatch does have the technology to control memes?"
The president of Northern America looked at Chen Chen solemnly. "Please answer us truthfully."
"Yes, but only the surface."
Chen Chen stared at the other party and nodded calmly.
As these words came out, the expressions of everyone present changed even more. Everyone looked at Chen Chen with a complicated gaze.
Whether it was the angel statue incident or the previous This Man incident, it made everyone understand that things like memes were far more dangerous and unstable than nuclear weapons. After all, nuclear weapons could only destroy human civilization at most, but memes could destroy everything known...
Therefore, Chen Chen, who claimed to have obtained memetic technology, had instantly upgraded from an ordinary person to an existence on equal footing with the four major continents.
"Memetic technology is far from what current human civilization can thoroughly study."
At this time, Chen Chen said with a calm expression, "And the reason why I know this is because I'm a successor. I inherited the legacy of the person who disappeared from this world, so I was able to establish the famous Blacklight Biotechnology and finally stand before you."
Hearing this, everyone's expression flickered, thinking about the truth of Chen Chen's words.
"I believe that with your intelligence, you should have noticed something wrong a long time ago. What is the purpose of the existence of the Earth Federation? Isn't it to unite the power of all mankind? But in the absence of foreign enemies, why should we unite? "
Chen Chen stood on the stage and said slowly, "Also, the quantum computer Adam is the legacy left to us by 'that person'. What is his purpose, and why did he leave behind this machine that can predict the future?
"If the first two are nothing, then the existence of the Earth Federation United Front is even more suspicious..."
Hearing Chen Chen's rhetorical question, Yu Qi could not help but think of the classification of various events by the United Front. One of them was the so-called "abnormal event".
It turned out that the Earth Federation United Front and the quantum computer Adam existed for human disasters such as memes?
After Chen Chen said many things that only the real higher-ups could know, Yu Qi's heart surged with a shocking wave. Countless doubts once had collapsed at this time and were completely exposed to the sun...
At this moment, a trance flashed in the eyes of the leaders of the four continents. Chen Chen was able to reveal the secret of the "blank" and at the same time knew all this out of thin air. Coupled with Chen Chen's current achievements, everyone believed at least half of his words.
"If you're really the heir of that 'non-existent person', then what are you going to do now?"
At this moment, the president of the North Sea Continent suddenly spoke. He took a deep look at Chen Chen. "And what do you want by inviting us here today?"
"I don't need anything, because it's not me who really needs it, but human civilization."
Chen Chen smiled faintly. "I think the reason why you haven't dissolved the Earth Federation should also be because you've found some clues. I have to say that the current situation of mankind is actually very dangerous...
"'That person' told me that this world is much crueler than we imagined. In the vast universe, Earth is like a lone island in the middle of an ocean, and the civilization of mankind is a castle built by a child with fine sand. It is beautiful but fragile. If any great wave hits, the civilization that human beings are proud of will completely collapse. There will not even be a ripple on it."
"In addition, he also said a theory called the 'Great Filter of Civilization' — if a planet is compared to a whole, then a planet with life is actually a human with a soul. It's just that we don't understand that for a planet, the emergence of civilization is not a surprise. Instead, like cancer cells, it develops at the cost of harming the planet itself...
"Therefore, the development of a corresponding civilization in each ecosphere needs to bear the resistance of the planet's immune system. As long as the civilization is not destroyed, this resistance will continue..."
Chen Chen continued with a solemn expression. "We humans have always been wrong. Since we experienced World War II until now, there have been almost no large-scale disasters, which gives us the illusion that this world is very safe. But if you look at history, you'll find that this' safety 'is only an accidental phenomenon. The history of human civilization has always been built on countless natural and man-made disasters, so he united all mankind to create the Earth Federation to deal with this kind of crisis from the planet and even the depths of the universe...
"This is everything 'he' told me."
With that, Chen Chen stood in front of everyone and spread his arms. "As the heir of 'he', I must inherit his will, so I hope that the entire human race can unite, at least all of you here can unite to deal with the crisis that may arise at any time in the future. This is the purpose of my trip..."
A true "union"?
Hearing Chen Chen's words, no one responded immediately but bowed their heads in contemplation.
"If we agree, what do we have to pay and what do we get out of it? “
The President of Northern America suddenly asked.
"I'll share the inheritance I received from 'that person'."
Chen Chen replied without hesitation, "In this inheritance, in addition to the technology I've released today, there are some more secret technologies that have not been announced."
With that, Chen Chen suddenly waved his hand and a dozen flying pieces of paper fell in front of the leaders of the continents. These people picked up the paper in their hands and looked at it. Everyone's face showed an inexplicable expression...
This was because in this information, although there were only a few short tables of contents, all contained in it were things that human beings dreamed of but were difficult to obtain!
Super AI technology, normal-temperature superconductors, stellarator reactors, super tokamak reactors, miniature hadron colliders, nuclear-powered spacecraft, fully automatic medical equipment...
The densely packed table of contents almost dazzled everyone's eyes because everyone present knew that each of these things was enough to trigger a new industrial revolution!
At this moment, everyone's hearts were completely filled with raging waves!
"Except for commercial use, I can share these technologies with you."
Chen Chen spread his hands and faced the crowd with a bewitching tone. "The fully automatic medical equipment can cure all human diseases so far and greatly extend human life, up to more than 300 years...
"Normal-Temperature superconductors, abandoning the ultra-low temperature superconductors that must be maintained at minus 100 degrees Celsius, can maintain superconducting properties at room temperature, enough to revolutionize the entire industrial system...
"A mature super tokamak reactor, the highest Q value can exceed 10,000. Once completed, human civilization will step into the era of infinite energy and humans will officially evolve into a trans-planetary species...
"There are even more legacies that I can share with your continents."
Chen Chen continued. "The price you'll have to pay is very simple. That is, you'll protect all of mankind wholeheartedly with me. I hope that all of you can work with me to establish a special organization dedicated to protecting human civilization. This organization will have extremely high authority and become a legal armed department independent of the federal government. It will also have the same privileges as the Earth Federation United Army and can operate anywhere in the world without being obstructed by the law..."
It was not until hearing Chen Chen's request that everyone came back to their senses. Among them, the elegant man next to Yu Qi thought for a while and then chuckled lightly. "If you can really lead the entire human civilization to resist the damage from the planet, what's the harm in giving you this authority?
"The premise is that you can't interfere in the internal affairs of the continents, let alone use this department for war."
The president of Northern America added.
"Of course."
Chen Chen nodded and solemnly said, "Please rest assured, my ambition is not about power, but more about immortality, which should be seen from my first technology."
"In that case, what about the membership of this agency?"
The president of the North Sea Continent was a little curious. "And how do you plan to establish this agency and what are its functions?"
"As for the membership of the agency, I allow each of you to send one person to enter the Supreme Council of this agency. One is responsible for controlling the agency, and the other is responsible for supervision. The identity of this person should be top secret."
Chen Chen said without thinking, "And the decision-makers of the Supreme Council have the right to vote and can make effective suggestions to the agency.
"And the name of this agency, we can call it - the Blacklight Foundation."
