from night city

We must know that in this era, ordinary people rarely have the possibility of turning over, let alone the opportunity to achieve a class jump.

The reason is also very simple.

Because all upward channels have been firmly controlled by the company.

Let’s take Arasaka as an example.

After Japan's defeat, when Saburo Arasaka just took over Arasaka from his father, Arasaka was just a very ordinary company.

It was Saburo Arasaka who gradually developed and expanded Arasaka Company.

After Arasaka Company occupied the Japanese market, many rising stars also appeared in Japan. Many of them were as talented and capable as Saburo Arasaka, who was increasingly aging and dying.

But why are there only two companies in Japan today, "Arasaka" and "Tsunami"?But there are no other Japanese companies?

It is because, when Arasaka noticed that other outstanding Japanese companies might threaten Arasaka, Arasaka did not sit back and watch, but took measures to nip the threat in the bud.

Either spend a lot of money to acquire the other party's company and merge the other party into Arasaka.

In this way, it doesn't matter no matter how good the other person is, because the other person is already a part of Arasaka.

If the acquisition of the entire company fails, then use money to poach the other company's core team and technical backbone.

Even people who don't understand company operations should understand that when your core team and technical backbone are poached, your company will almost fall apart.

Relying on these two magic weapons, Arasaka defeated almost all Japanese colleagues who tried to challenge it.

This situation also applies to Night City.

It is precisely because of this understanding that no one dares to open a company in the city.

Because I am really afraid of losing.

In comparison, becoming a legend is much "simpler".

Seeing River's confused expression, Su Xiao knew what he was thinking.

He smiled.

"Of course it is true, but one difference is that my company is not in the city, but outside the city. It is still under construction and there are not many manpower."

After hearing Lidya Su's answer, River suddenly realized.

No wonder.

It turns out that it is still too small and has not been noticed by those giants.

And, River realized he had made a mistake.

He only remembered that Arasaka's primitive accumulation was bloody, but he forgot that the place they were in now was not Japan, but the City of Night.

If it were Japan, Arasaka would certainly treat other Japanese companies vigorously and resolutely.

Because Japan is Arasaka's home base, there is absolutely no way Arasaka would allow his own backyard to catch fire.

But things are different in Night City.

Night City is not just Arasaka alone, but there are many companies including military technology, Kang Tao, biotechnology, and Qiluji Optical. Arasaka is not yet able to do what he did in Japan, where one company can respond to all needs.

Moreover, Su Xiao's company is not built in the city, but outside the city.

Outside the city is not the scope of Night City, it is just a bad land, full of wanderers and random swordsmen. It may be for this reason that those established companies feel that it will be okay even if they leave it alone.

"You want to poach me?"

"You don't have a job anyway? How about you come to my place?"

Needless to say, River's character has not been as depraved and corrupt as most people after staying in the big dye vat of the NCPD for so long.

This characteristic of getting out of the mud without being stained is enough to reassure Su Xiao.

Moreover, the NCPD kicked River out because of his integrity, but Su Xiao was not worried that anything bad would happen to River's integrity.

Because their cause is just.

Therefore, Lidya Su has nothing to worry about.

In addition, River's skills are not bad either.

After all, he is a police detective who often goes on missions. Although River once said that the detective spends most of his time looking for people everywhere.

People ask questions, and the rest of the time is used to write reports.

But this does not mean that the gun worn on the detective's waist is just a decoration.

You must know that the place where the detective wants to ask questions is not a peaceful place, and not everyone is in awe of the detective.

Therefore, having good skills is also a must.

River's skills are definitely among the best in the NCPD.

Don't forget, when he was in the city hall, he knocked down the cybermaniac with three shots.

Although that may be the most embarrassing cyber madman in history, a cyber madman is still a cyber madman after all.

Therefore, Su Xiao believes that River is definitely someone worth wooing, and developing him into the backbone of Shuguang Society is definitely not a loss-making deal.

Rather, it would be a big mistake for the NCPD to give up this treasure on its own initiative.

River thought for a long time. He didn't say anything, and Su Xiao didn't urge him. Finally, after a long while, River said with a smile.

"Okay, I can think about it, but how much can you give me? If it's less, I won't do it."

Chapter 279: The ministers and others are about to fight to the death, why does Your Majesty surrender first (4K)

"How about a daily salary of [-] euros and a monthly salary of [-] euros? I'm not treating you badly, am I?"

"so much?"

River was shocked.

When he was a police detective in the NCPD, his monthly salary was only [-] euros. This was the result of exhausting work, working overtime, and offending people everywhere.

If you change jobs and work in a company, you can earn nearly ten times more salary?

River couldn't help but click his tongue.

No wonder many of his colleagues chose to work as security guards for companies after quitting the NCPD.

Do you really have so much money to start a company?

Or is the other person just trying to make him happy?

"Can you really afford such a high salary?"

What River actually wanted to ask more was "Where did you get so much money?"

But asking like this seems like inquiring into other people's privacy... No, it should be said that it is not privacy, but business secrets.

Shopping malls are like battlefields. Trade secrets are the most important information within a company and must never be shared with outsiders.

And asking like this can easily give others a bad impression.

That's why River changed his question to a more tactful way.

Although River asked tactfully, Su Xiao knew what he really wanted to ask.

In fact, it is normal for River to have such concerns.

In the history of Night City, which is shorter than the founding of the United States, many legendary figures have emerged.

Johnny Silverhand, Morgan Blackhand, Andrew Snake Wayland and more...

Some of them, because they had personally experienced the war, wanted to use rock music to awaken the people and call on everyone to rise up against the company;

Some people appear to be legendary lone wolves, but secretly maintain close contact and cooperation with military technology;

Some people tried to do something, but failed, leaving only a relic in the public cemetery and an epitaph engraved on the tombstone...

There is no doubt that they are all legends of Night City. Even the wine they loved to drink during their lifetime will be renamed after them in the next life for those who come after them to look up to.

But even so, it's nothing more than that.

In the eyes of the company, everyone is just a swarm of ants.

And the so-called legends are just bigger ants.

It is precisely because history has proven that it is useless to become a legend and there is no way to change the world.

So their route is wrong.

Therefore, Su Xiao's policy is to use magic to defeat magic, and use company to defeat company.

Moreover, Su Xiao knew that there were many companies in Night City, and the cake and market had actually been divided up by those established giants.

He has no way to develop and grow in Night City and will be severely restricted.

That's why he built the company in Shiji Mountain and developed it from the outside, using the rural areas to encircle the cities.

……

Lidya Su smiled: "Don't worry about the salary issue. This is something I only need to consider. Just tell me whether you will come or not?"

River closed his eyes, and his mind fell into a battle between heaven and man.

If it were anyone else who offered such a generous offer, he would be a liar one thousand percent.

But Lidya Su is different from others.

Although the cooperation with Su Xiao was not long, it left a very good impression on River.

As a police detective, River comes into contact with all kinds of people in order to investigate cases.

Maybe it's a bit metaphysical to say this, but River can smell that the smell of different people is different.

River did not smell the smell of "deception", "lie" and "crime" in Su Xiao.

Therefore, he decided to believe Su Xiao.

"Okay, I'll do it, but I have to wait until my nephew's matter is over. Sorry, Su, I can't think of anything else until Randy is safe."

Lidya Su had no objection.

"Don't feel sorry for me, I understand. And, since you decided to do it with me, let's solve this matter together."

"You are my employee. As a boss, it is my duty to protect my employees."

Su Xiao was very happy to have gained another key member.
