Chapter 207: Negotiations!
At this moment!
The white-haired woman was reporting the situation to the person at the helm.
“According to our statistics, due to the disconnection of the directional network, our consortium’s losses have already reached 300 billion. Although the block has been lifted, the effects are still lingering. The Actuary estimated that our consortium’s losses would be around 500 billion.”
After the woman finished speaking, she continued on to the next matter.
“The Childe Consortium claimed the blueprint of the neutrino battery, but we have our own copy. After proofreading the blueprint, it is the original version. The price was 400,000 tons of rare metals and 5 billion in cash.”
“The Ross Consortium and the Childe Consortium have already started to contact each other after this cyber attack. According to our spy report, the probability of them working together is more than 80%.”
“We have investigated this cyberattack and did not find any clues. However, because the fact that there are no clues has become the most important clue.”
“One, it was a cyberattack by the Asian Alliance. Two, it was a targeted attack by the US. Three, it was a joint attack by the Rabbit Kingdom and Russia. Four…”
“It might have been launched by Raymond!”
After the white-haired woman finished her sentence, the remaining four people on the stage still looked calm.
However, their heavy breathing betrayed their inner feelings.
In the past, Raymond had been their prey.
They could eat his flesh whenever they wanted.
But now, they could no longer act so freely!
If they acted rashly, he might very well bring them down.
Moreover, they were not even aware of Tuesday’s hand in all this.
However, Tuesday was an artificial intelligence. The network was as natural as him as it breathing was to humans.
His physical server was a vulnerability.
Without the server, Raymond was almost useless.
Even if he had Riven, he wouldn’t be able to withstand a sea of people.
The person-in-charge said, “Right now, Raymond is someone we have to fight for. Even if the previous cyberattacks were initiated by Raymond, we still have to fight for him. In the future, we need his skills!”
“Understood!”
The white-haired woman agreed and sat down.
Her actions caused the third button on her jacket to sway.
After a few seconds, it finally calmed down.
It was obvious that her growth was all-natural.
“Do you have anything to say about the union between the Ross Consortium and the Childe Consortium?”
The person at the helm waited for a few seconds and asked the white-haired woman, “I think this matter…”
It was an important meeting.
Even so, the five-person meeting did not last long.
In front of smart people, discussions did not require so much deliberating.
Therefore, the meeting ended very quickly.
The meeting ended.
The curtains of the meeting room’s windows opened automatically.
At the same time, the signal jammer was also turned off.
In such a confidential meeting, the signal jammer was a mandatory tool.
However!
Before the five people could get up completely, the phone of the person at the helm immediately rang.
The helmsman looked at the number and frowned.
His cellphone was custom-made and contained no phone card.
Besides, only the people in his address book could call in.
But now, he saw an unknown number without any remarks — 10086.
A five-digit short number.
Subconsciously, the helmsman wanted to hang up the phone.
Before he could move, his phone was immediately picked up.
Immediately, the projector in the meeting room lit up.
A familiar person appeared on the screen.
Raymond!
Although Raymond appeared on the screen, he did not speak.
He was waiting.
The leader of the Morgan Financial Group would naturally take the initiative to speak when he saw him.
However, at that moment, Tuesday was giving Raymond a message through the headset.
“Sir, allow me to identify them. They are…”
Before Tuesday could finish his words, the head of the Morgan Financial Group spoke.
“Mr. Raymond, when did you know that you were on the program team?”
The head of the Morgan Financial Group covered the camera on his phone.
He knew very well that with Tuesday’s capabilities, Raymond could very well be in the same room as them.
Tuesday’s analytical ability was very strong, needless to say.
Perhaps even the slightest change in their faces would reveal their cards to Raymond.
More importantly, Raymond had reached his very private phone, and his intentions were still unclear.
“That does not matter. I just thought of asking you this, Mr. Hobson. Are you interested in swallowing up the Childe Consortium?” Raymond answered calmly.
Hobson, as the leader of the Morgan Consortium, had a respected position.
However, this time was different from the past.
In front of Raymond, he was just an ordinary person with some goons!
In more than ten days, he would also become a dead person like those who were not selected.
“I’m sorry, not interested!”
Hobson did not know what Raymond was going to do.
Rationally, he should have asked in detail.
But in order to get information quickly, he chose to do the opposite.
In the past, this trick was very useful in front of other forces.
But now, he was facing Raymond.
What Raymond hated the most was wasting time.
So he went straight to the point and said his plan.
Since he didn’t agree, Raymond didn’t want to continue the conversation.
After all, the Morgan Consortium wasn’t the only consortium that could take over the Childe consortium.
“Forget it if you’re not interested!”
Raymond said casually and then said to Tuesday, “Move on to the next one!”
Raymond’s reaction made Hobson panic.
In an instant, many options flew through his mind.
However, he clearly knew that the Morgan syndicate desperately needed Raymond.
If he missed this opportunity, such an opportunity would be hard to come by again.
The current Raymond was already protected by the US military.
On that island, even Morgan Syndicate’s people couldn’t get in.
Now, the opportunity was in his face.
If he just turned it down like this, then it was really something that only a fool would do.
“Wait a minute, Mr. Raymond.”
Hobson said quickly.
He was afraid that Tuesday would hang up.
“Have you changed your mind?”
Raymond was straightforward.
“No…”
Without waiting for Hobson to finish speaking.
Raymond ordered Tuesday again, “Change!”
This time, Raymond only used one word.
“I did! I’ve changed my mind!”
Hobson knew that if he really hung up, then this opportunity would truly be gone.
The reason he denied it was entirely because of his years of negotiating habits.
But the point was, Raymond didn’t care about his habits.
He didn’t even know Hobson.
Tuesday knew all about Hobson, but Raymond had only glanced at Hobson’s name.
Raymond didn’t even want to know the rest.
He, Hobson, didn’t deserve it!
He’s just a tool!
And this tool, in a few days, will be destroyed.
Such useless information was a complete waste of brain capacity.
