1588 、 White Bishop – Tang Yu
Edward Bachman paused in high spirits, then bowed to the people around him and said, "As usual, our Hellfire Club only has one goal — to change the world, to push the world forward, to evolve the world! So we have always welcomed top-notch elites with foresight to join our ranks. Today, we will welcome a new partner! A partner with the knowledge to change the world — Mr. Tang Yu! "
The light immediately shone on Tang Yu, making him extremely conspicuous in the darkness.
In order to stand out from Tang Yu, the light on Edward's side had already been extinguished. He said in the darkness, "Mr. Tang Yu suddenly rose up like a supernova. His understanding and research of nuclear energy, and even his knowledge of mechanical engineering, far surpasses this era by at least 20 years! Because of this, I have asked a large number of experts and doctors for their opinions. They believe that Mr. Tang Yu's understanding is something that even they can't keep up with. Although they have exchanged letters, the communication between the two parties is on a completely different level. It can even be said that if we have your help, we can even achieve a breakthrough in the use of nuclear energy within two years! So I believe that Mr. Tang Yu is the kind of person that our Hellfire Club needs … the kind of person who can change the world!! "
Clap clap clap clap … There was a round of applause, but it seemed that because there weren't many people, the applause wasn't that enthusiastic.
"Perhaps Mr. Tang Yu doesn't understand the Hellfire Club too well, but you will soon understand the power we have. Changing the world isn't just empty talk. If you can become one of us, you and your business will receive a huge amount of funding. We can make you a billionaire within a month. Money is just a number. What we truly have is the power to change the world! And you, Mr. Tang Yu, I believe that you can make our power even stronger! "Edward said passionately.
Tang Yu smiled and pointed at the white bishop badge on his chest. "Then what does this mean?"
"The Council of the Chosen One! The true core of the Hellfire Club! " Edward raised his hands and pointed at the huge round table. "The Hellfire Club is a huge organization, but the only ones qualified to sit here and make decisions are us — the Chosen One Council!"
"We use chess as our name. I am the White King, and Dennis Rockefeller is the Black King. Next is the White Queen, Paris Seville, Black Bishop Sebastian Shaw, White Chariot, Steven Lang … If you are willing to join this big family, this is your name and your position — White Bishop! "In addition to these people, Edward also introduced the other people at the round table to Tang Yu.
"I haven't even agreed to join, yet you are so anxious to introduce me to the core members. Aren't you worried?" Tang Yu said calmly. In his opinion, Edward Backman was a smooth talker, but he was vain and impetuous, in sharp contrast to Sebastian Shaw, who was very calm.
"Hahahaha." Edward laughed heartily. "The Hellfire Club isn't some secret cult. We're known to everyone in the upper-class circles. So, don't mind it too much. Then, Mr. Tang Yu, I sincerely invite you to join the Hellfire Club and become our White Bishop. Are you willing? "
Before Tang Yu could answer, a voice suddenly interrupted Edward. "Please wait a moment, Mr. Edward." Tang Yu looked over. It was Dennis Rockefeller, who had clashed with him at the door before. He was also the Black King of the Hellfire Club.
Although it was dark except for Tang Yu, Tang Yu could clearly see the sneer on Dennis Rockefeller's face. "I have a suggestion, Mr. Tang Yu. Your research on nuclear energy and mechanical automation … Mm, let me be frank. Your research on robots is very, very outstanding. You are the most outstanding and advanced scientist I have ever seen. How about you come to our Rockefeller company? I am willing to pay you ten million dollars a year! What do you think? "
Tang Yu did some calculations. According to the current gold-standard US dollars, ten million dollars was equivalent to eight tons of gold! According to the gold price of China in the future, it was equivalent to more than two billion RMB! This was really an unimaginable amount of money! And it was this much every year!! Sure enough, when this price was mentioned, there were gasps of surprise from the surroundings.
As if he thought that Tang Yu was beginning to be moved, Dennis continued. "I noticed that apart from making some small investments in Luling Town, you also bought land in the Permian Basin? What do you want to do in that place where birds don't even shit? Open a dinosaur park? Hahahaha … "
He laughed mockingly. "Maybe your … Mm, 'Tang Dinosaur Park' will be a great park that can rival Disney in the future. But that is a distant future. Earning money bit by bit, why do you have to be so tired? Isn't it better to grab hold of your present? Ten million dollars a year, you can get it just by lying down. What do you think? If you are not satisfied, my door is open at any time. You can discuss this price with me at any time. "
Tang Yu smiled coldly and replied, "Sorry, Dennis. Maybe this' dinosaur park 'of mine can really become a park that surpasses Disney. I really can't bear to part with it. So, this ten million dollars a year, you should keep it for your retirement. I think you will really miss this money in the future. "
Dennis Rockefeller's face suddenly became extremely ugly. He slowly said, "You are … refusing a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit? Mr. Tang Yu. "
"Looks like the Rockefeller banner isn't always useful, Dennis." Sebastian Shaw at the side said lightly.
Tang Yu was too lazy to pay attention to this person. He turned his head to Edward Bachman and said, "Looks like I have really been chosen by an amazing organization. Alright, I accept your invitation. I am willing to become a member of the Hellfire Club as … Bishop White! "
