867 、 Extortion by Force
"This time, in order to raise funds for the Super Physics Laboratory in the world of Terminator, considering that Svetlana's side is in a civil war in the world of Resident Evil: Cursed, she still needs some funds. Therefore, I only asked her for 15 billion USD in cash and physical resources. Although she only gave 8.5 billion USD, at least, in my opinion, Svetlana put in a lot of effort to achieve this goal, "Chen Gang said to Tang Yu while holding a notebook.
"But it's also necessary to knock some sense into her. Now that the Resident Evil: Cursed series has temporarily stabilized, my plan is to turn the entire Republic of New Itonia into our research center and manufacturing factory. But this plan is huge, and it's not something she can accomplish alone. Svetlana, in essence, is still just a politician. Therefore, we need to set up an advanced artificial intelligence there. Currently, 'Henry' that we stole from the US Department of Defense and 'Taotie' that grew up in the world of Pacific Rim both have this potential, but they still need to grow further, "Tang Yu said.
"The world of Resident Evil: Cursed has limited potential in terms of mechanical technology. We still need to develop biotechnology in this world," Chen Gang said.
Tang Yu thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "There's no need to rush. Mechanical technology is our core. Let's use it to run the Republic of New Itonia first."
Chen Gang wrote a few words on the notebook and said, "In this case, the expected profits in this world will be lower, but the advantage is that if something unexpected happens, we will have the ability to fight back. Okay, then we'll do as you say. "
With a flash of white light, Chen Gang, Tang Yu, and Kristina, who was always by Tang Yu's side, appeared in a world of ice and snow.
"But the problem now is here, in the world of Alien vs. Predator." Chen Gang's expression was solemn. He pointed to the front. On the steep mountain wall in front of them, there was a huge white iron gate. On the iron gate, there was a huge black T, the logo of the Guardian Group.
"In fact, I asked Lei Fan for US $5 billion in funds and physical resources, but he was very troubled. Under the promotion of the US government, the Guardian-Tanggu Corporation's annual sales volume was more than 100 billion US dollars, and it used a lot of robot labor, so it should have more funds. As one of the two major shareholders, Lei Fan should have already started preparing funds and resources according to the business strategy I had formulated. There was no way he couldn't afford it. But in fact, he only has the ability to come up with $800 million. " Chen Gang said, "Not only that, Lei Fan and Robert Ray have also lost contact. I'm afraid they're being controlled."
"Less than a fifth … Actually, I can roughly guess who did it. The Lady Utani! From the very beginning, she had been planning to embezzle our Guardian Group's technology and assets. This was also the inevitable result of the Guardian Group's early dealings with the country … When I agreed to buy Weyland Group's assets and merge it with the Tanggu Group to form the Guardian Group, that was my compromise. But now it seems that she took our compromise as weakness … "A dangerous light flashed in Tang Yu's eyes.
"It's a pity I didn't join at the time, otherwise I would have stopped it. Lady Utani didn't actually have good intentions when she asked you to buy Weyland Group's assets. We paid the money, settled the employees of Weyland Group, and bought their factories. Then, Lady Utani merged with us. She directly took half of the money and the assets! It's equivalent to us spending money, and she's taking things directly. "Chen Gang's expression didn't look too good either.
"So, on the surface, she gave us great benefits, but in fact, it was all a trap. If we hadn't had a lot of funds from other worlds to replenish our funds, just the funds to buy Weyland Industries would have been enough to stretch our operations, or even cause us to run out of funds! If that really happened, she could have taken the opportunity to get more benefits from the Guardian Group, and even directly control our Guardian Group! "Chen Gang continued.
Tang Yu's footsteps suddenly stopped. He looked at the gate of the secret base, and his tone was murderous. "And they also found this place. This secret base for researching the Predator spaceships!! "
Following his gaze, they could see a few more sentries at the gate, and inside the thick sentry post, they could see US soldiers moving about!
"The deal with the Predator Elder is imminent. If he knows that we can't even control a small lifeboat, how can he trade with us in the future? Hahaha … "Tang Yu's voice was full of murderous intent." Let's go, Kristina. If we don't show our teeth, they might really think that our full strength is just a few broken robots that we painstakingly produced! "
"Are we going to attack from the front?" Kristina tilted her head.
"No, my spaceship is still inside. Don't break it …" Tang Yu grinned. Suddenly, he waved his hand, and countless nanomachines formed a barrier in front of them. If they attacked from the other side, they would find that these nanomachines formed an image of a constantly moving snowstorm, perfectly blending into the environment and hiding their figures.
In the two sturdy sentry towers temporarily built at the gate of the base, more than a dozen US soldiers were warming up around a stove and chatting. Their attention was focused on the interior of the base, and they did not consider that someone would break in from the outside. After all, this was the South Pole, not just any other place. The temperature was more than -40 degrees Celsius, and the wind was strong enough to form a barrier of death.
"It looks like the snowstorm is about to stop. The weather forecast seems to be more accurate this time," a soldier said as he looked out the window with a pair of binoculars.
"It's good that it's stopped. At least we can go out for a stroll … ah, no, patrol …" another soldier said.
Suddenly, an electric bell rang from the entrance of the sentry post. An American soldier drank a cup of warm drink in one gulp, got up, and said, "I'll go have a look. Maybe it's Tom from Tower B coming to look for food … Ha!"
The soldier walked down the stairs and said loudly, "Hey, Tom, we charge for hot coffee!!"
