Harrison Clark spent nearly an hour discussing the details with everyone. It was still morning in China, but it was already late at night in Carlisle.
Carrie Thomas’s biological clock was disrupted, and she looked a bit tired.
She yawned and stood up, saying, “I got it, I’ll go to the guest room to sleep first. Harrison, you should rest soon too.”
Harrison nodded.
Julia Lambert across from him also suggested, “Yes, it’s too late over there for you. Go get some rest. We will digest the information a bit more.”
Harrison hummed, “Okay, let’s end it here for now. Fatty, don’t worry, I’ll figure something out. Just promise me that you won’t do anything until I do.”
Europeans grumbled in response.
Before Harrison hung up, Avril Green glanced at him one more time.
Actually, Avril understood the hidden message in Carrie’s words just now.
Carrie was quietly telling her a fact.
She and Harrison hadn’t engaged in that kind of relationship yet; they hadn’t slept together.
Avril felt a little guilty, but also very moved.
But at the same time, she thought it wasn’t quite right.
If their mission was so big, and they were a team, then they should be able to handle their emotions better and not get caught up in their petty personal affairs.
However, Avril didn’t dare to discuss this issue with Carrie easily.
Carrie’s creation was driven by emotions, which were very sensitive, and Avril couldn’t be sure if any abrupt promises or changes would affect Carrie’s creative talents.
Avril also gradually learned Harrison’s way of thinking about problems.
Meanwhile, she came up with her own idea.
She didn’t particularly agree with Harrison’s arrangements.
After waiting for about ten minutes, Avril opened the Solution-specific encrypted communication software on her mobile phone, customized by Harrison, and sent a message, “Asleep yet?”
“Not yet. What’s up?”
Harrison had just woken up in the afternoon, and he wasn’t sleepy at all.
Avril pondered for a moment, “I know you advised me to focus on music for my own good, but I don’t think it’s right.”
Harrison was taken aback, “Huh? What do you mean?”
He didn’t quite understand Avril’s intention.
“Before I met you guys, I just wanted to focus on creating. But you showed me my limits, and you even helped me break through them. I’m very grateful.”
Harrison: “Why are you suddenly bringing this up?”
“But now my thoughts have changed. Maybe if I keep creating like this, I can still make progress along the path of music creation, but it’s not all that significant.”
“How can you say it’s not significant? You must not underestimate the power of the Renaissance. The connection between the European Renaissance and the first Industrial Revolution doesn’t need further explanation, does it? In the previous timeline, your premature initiation of the Across the Starry Sky style and your album, The Invincible War God, were essential for the upcoming art explosion. This time, you can try even more.”
Avril laughed, “I’ll definitely do my best in what I can, and I won’t completely give up on the creative path. I just think that I must pick up another path. Let me give you an example: suppose I’m now ranked 80th in your so-called Millennium Ranking. If I continue to focus on this, maybe in this timeline, I can move up to the 70th place. Indeed, I can provide a little more help to the art explosion you expect, but it’s still not enough.”
“However, if I take on another career, I can accomplish more in my life. I can have a huge impact on the Solution project from another level. I know you’ve been working hard recently to promote the integration of the Eastern and Western worlds. You want to eliminate conflicting ideologies and build a new world order based on Chinese civilization while maintaining the advantages of the Indo-European language system, right?”
Harrison wanted to argue but couldn’t hide it from Avril, “Yes.”
Being raised in a special family and exposed to administration management since childhood, Avril continued, “You were prepared to make concessions and adjust the resource allocation of the means of production on a larger scale. Your first intention is to allow more capable and morally upright people to receive a larger share of resources, thus accelerating the flow of wealth and technological innovation. Your second goal is to make more people form a vested interest relationship with Summit Ventures and our Solution. So, we can better guide the world.”
Harrison: “Hmm.”
“You went to Carlisle to attend that conference on alien threats and then invited the Oxford Professor to our country to conduct a questionnaire survey. You wanted to prove to the Western world that the Eastern way of thinking would perform better in the face of an apocalyptic environment. At the same time, you didn’t deny the value of the Indo-European language system. You started to promote the development of the Compound Eye Crisis game, which perfectly exposed your intention to accelerate language integration.”
“You then went to Lincoln County. Although they refused to admit the value of that place, I think, besides the legendary Area 51, they had nothing else to attract you to make a special trip. You saw something and then took out three new material science technologies, preparing to launch a technological competition between the East and the West. I’ve seen the plan of Summit Research Institute. I firmly believe that we will win this competition, and then we can control others’ key industrial chains to some extent, thus changing the situation where our country lags behind in advanced technology industries.”
