The Witch's Taste
Page 173
"This is blackmail!" one director said angrily.
"It can't be considered blackmail." A slightly more rational director reminded others, "They can really break in and take away the technology. They just chose to buy it because they didn't want to damage the cooperative relationship with us. That’s all.”
This person's words left everyone speechless. The co-author did not rob openly but chose to buy by force. We have to thank him, right?
What's even more speechless is that this is really true.
Although the Aurora Charity Company has a shell on the outside, the security measures inside are at the level of the Bakht Group. As a result, the witches came and went as if they were in a deserted place... The Bahl Group is also one of the eight giants of the Federation, but they only borrowed The huge profits from monopolizing food and medicine still lag behind that of established aristocratic plutocrats like Bakht.
If Bakht's strength is close to the second tier, then the Bal Group is a third tier group.Of course I'm also looking for an occult expert who can counter the witch, but I'd better give in until I can't find one.
Everyone quickly reached a consensus: sell!
Now that you have decided to sell, you have to be careful about how you sell it.First of all, there is no need to speak loudly, because the starship humans probably don’t have much money, and the core technology will still lose money no matter how high the price is.
The important thing is how to take advantage of this inevitable business and tie those witches to the Baal Group's chariot and tell them not to mess with you in the future... Of course, it would be better if you can help deal with competitors. .
It only took about half an hour for the board of directors to determine the general direction.
We sell old technology that is about 50 years behind the latest technology, as well as a complete set of corresponding equipment and related technical support.
The most meaningful thing here is "related technical support": Barr Group will have special engineers stationed on the starship to help maintain the operation of the food cell factory. The components that need to be replaced every once in a while are also responsible for Barr Group Provided, any colonial sector within the Federation can help with replacement.
In this way, as long as the starship humans break up with the Barr Group, it means that the food production capacity will soon be paralyzed, leaving the Barr Group without worries...
Looking at the results, there was a subtle silence among the directors.
This kind of "technical kidnapping" method is usually used by them to deal with the local governments in the marginal star regions, and it will basically squeeze out the opponent's pants.After all, as long as you accept technical funding from the Barr Group, your grain production capacity will increase significantly. As the population continues to grow, the result is that food is increasingly not allowed to go wrong, and in the end you will have to be a dog for the Barr Group.
Why has it become a helpless strategy for self-protection when it comes to the starship humans?
"That's it!" Everyone agreed.
I couldn't think about it any more. The more I thought about it, the more I felt aggrieved, so I quickly agreed to let the other party settle the matter.
Board of Directors, over!
In the follow-up work, the secretarial team refined the professional content, and the legal team was responsible for drafting the terms. The final contract was freshly released and was delivered to Chen Ziang by Abraham within an hour.
Chen Ziang:……………………
Why, are you really planning to sell it?
Xia Zili and Tsukinomiya Suzuna also came over to look at the contract, and were surprised to find that all the quotes were unexpectedly low, and there was no sign of any big talk.
As for the subsequent technical maintenance, it has become what it should be - of course it is impossible for others to teach the core technology to others. Otherwise, what if you take the technology and turn around to sell it and compete with others?This protection is something that the Barr Group must grasp, otherwise it will become a loss of power and humiliation for the plutocrats.
As for the lifeline being taken over by the Baer Group, Chen Ziang didn't care much because he didn't intend to give up the existing hydroponic production line. The purpose of introducing the grain cell factory was just to expand production capacity and produce some green leafy vegetables other than staple food as an incentive for Xingxing. The ship's people are just working hard.
If we really fall out with the Barr Group... without the green leafy vegetables, everyone can just continue to eat starch bars.They are all homeless refugees, how can they be moisturized?Get out of the starship and commit suicide in outer space!
319.Chapter 318 At any cost
Chen Ziang and others looked surprised. Abraham smiled apologetically beside him, but was completely speechless in his heart.
I'm so angry, but I still have to apologize.
Although no one on the board of directors said it clearly, Abraham was able to climb to the position of director of the public relations department. Abraham also guessed that some members of the board of directors must have blamed him afterwards, saying that if he had not brought people to the Sunlight Ecological Park to receive them, they would not have targeted the food cell factory. Technology.
This is of course an unreasonable statement. After all, business receptions were all held in the Sunlight Ecological Park in the past. To show the Baal Group’s strong technical strength in food production, who could have known in advance that such a thing would happen!
Besides, with such a huge number of refugees from the starship humans, there must be a hard demand for food.Even if they didn't come to Sunlight Ecological Park, wouldn't they ask the Baal Group for technology?
"This contract." Chen Ziang finally said, "We will give you an answer after discussing it."
"Of course." Abraham said with a smile.
"Let's talk about business." Chen Ziang took out another document, "We got some information about Aurora Charity Company's concert planning."
Where the information comes from, no need to say much, everyone knows.Abraham took the document and read it carefully.
Not long after, he smiled bitterly and said:
"I'm going to report, please wait."
Xia Zili noticed a little cold sweat on his forehead, but Tsukimiya Suzuna had already expected it. This kind of thing was not something he, a young director, could decide.
Abraham quickly came to the side hall and quickly reported the situation to his boss.
His immediate boss was also shocked. How could I have forgotten this?Isn’t that the reason for their visit this time?Report it down immediately.
Today's second round of Barr Group's board of directors convened again within 10 minutes of the end of the first round of board of directors!
"Is it over yet?" The director, who had just taken a nap and was woken up, cursed directly in the video, "You are treating us as an ATM, right?"
"This kind of thing cannot be tolerated!" Another director whose golf was interrupted was also very angry. "The Bakht family has a grudge against them, but we don't!"
"That's it, give them some color and see!"
"We must be tough this time!"
The board of directors was filled with indignation until the chairman silently read the materials and said:
"It's information from Aurora Charity."
The cursing in the video stopped abruptly, and everyone was silent for a while. Finally, a director came out and said:
"That's right! You should go find trouble with Bakht!"
This sentence immediately brought a new trend to the meeting, and everyone praised it in unison:
"Yes, well done, human!"
"Take off all the underwear of Aurora Charity!"
“Fuck them hard!”
Everyone talked a lot, and the atmosphere was no longer so awkward. The chairman distributed the information to everyone.
It was okay not to read it, but when everyone looked at the information, the atmosphere immediately started to feel uncomfortable.
Starship humans are not very sensitive to religious beliefs, but the people here are basically elves, and of course they know what this kind of brainwashing preaching means.
In fact, the Elf Father Religion is not as simple as most humans understand.
It was first born out of the ancient divine religion of the dark elves, with quite complex and cumbersome "purification rituals" and "codes"; then it became the old religious religion among the wild elves, and the religious power reached its peak, emphasizing "theocracy rules everything"; The Snow Elves turned into the True God Religion, bowed to secular authority, and changed to "divine right of kings."
After the high elves began to gain the upper hand, a more liberal "New God Religion" appeared, claiming that "every elf has a father god in his heart" - in fact, it was the emerging capital forces trying to get rid of the ideological rule of religious feudal forces. .
An elf race, with five ethnic groups underneath it; a Father God religion, with four sects underneath it... It can be seen that the Federation elves have never been monolithic, and only foreign regimes like the Human Empire can force them to unite.
Krublev and Bakht were born out of the old feudal aristocratic forces, and naturally all of them were loyal believers in the Old God Religion.This sect emphasizes the "heaven on earth", and the priests who support the chief priest rule the spiritual world of believers, and the nobles and priests are also inextricably linked.Rounding things off, the nobles used priests to dominate the minds of believers, so it was very reasonable for them to support the Old God Religion.
The directors of the Baal Group, a capital tycoon that does not care about blood, naturally prefer the free-thinking New God Religion.The document mentions "gospel", and the religion it spreads is called "Catamecia" in the Elvish language. It refers to the Elf Father God's religion in general, but also specifically refers to the "Old God's religion". This is Lian Sui's style. Cultural details that even Xu doesn’t know.
Once the gospel is broadcast on a large scale, the vast majority of the Aegelaos elves of the New Religion will inevitably convert to the Old Religion. The believers of the Old Religion will frequently go to the church to listen to the priests’ sermons and attend masses. In essence, the priests have usurped the country. The status of mass media exerts ideological control over the grassroots.
And the priests are almost all from the Bakht faction... We won't say anything at that time. As long as we still want to hang out in Aegelaos, then we will do what Bakht says.
It’s like treating someone like a dog!
The reaction of the Barr Group's board of directors to this document was far more intense than Chen Ziang and others imagined.
Before 10 minutes had passed, Abraham quickly walked out of the side room and said with a smile:
"Thank you for the information, Mr. Chen."
"We must stop the conspiracy of the Bakht group."
This statement was so decisive that Chen Ziang and the two girls exchanged glances, and everyone felt that something was wrong.
Spokespersons of chaebols generally speak in a tactful manner and rarely give a firm attitude before negotiations.
For example, if Abraham says, "If the Bakht Group does this, it will be difficult for everyone," and then Chen Ziang replies, "Yes, yes." Both parties confirm that the other party has the intention to cooperate, and then slowly discuss the details of the transaction.
As a result, Abraham came up and said "it must be stopped", and the bottom line was immediately revealed.Chen Ziang also knows that this is the weakness of your Barr Group, and he can offer a higher price in the future. If you get it right, you will definitely have to negotiate this cooperation.
So why did the other party do this?
Could it be because... the Baal Group cares about this evangelical mission and would rather pay more for the starship humanity, but must also unite to counter the Baht family as soon as possible?
Chen Ziang's mind changed rapidly, but he said with an embarrassed face:
"Indeed, it's just that we are very weak. If we face Bakht head-on, we may have little chance of winning."
God damn people are so meager!You pierced all the Bakht mining ships, and now you're pretending to be weak and pitiful, right?
Abraham also knew that the other party was asking for a high price, so he just kept a smile on his face and said politely:
"Let's go to the side room to talk."
The side room was clean, there was nothing except conference tables and chairs, not even tea, so the atmosphere of the discussion immediately became urgent.
"Let me talk about our demands first." Abraham asked everyone to take a seat, then looked solemn and said quickly, "The board of directors means that the gospel must be prevented from being played at the charity concert at all costs."
"Of course, the charity concert cannot be stopped. When the society knows nothing about the gospel, we have no legitimate reason to stop the Bakht Group, so someone needs to be there during the concert, from the microphone to the transducer to the All playback equipment is closely monitored, and the gospel must not be inserted into the audio played live."
"It is conceivable that these key places will definitely be heavily guarded by Aurora Charity, so we need sharp enough knife troops..."
As Chen Ziang listened, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, because the Baal Group's previous attitude was too radical, but the plan proposed now was so conservative... But the starship humans were considered mercenaries, and as long as the price was high enough, it seemed that There is no need to worry too much.
320. Chapter 319 I have many witches on hand
Starship Forever.
"Someone has been spreading rumors on the ship recently," Yuuki Izumo said, "It is said that Aegiraos has offered very favorable immigration conditions, but our senior officials are preventing it from letting the people know."
"It may not be a rumor." Xia Qingyu said leisurely.
Everyone present was a little stunned. Can this be said easily?
However, Chen Ziang, Xia Zili and Tsukinomiya Suzuna were not there. Xia Qingyu was the uncompromising leader on the ship, so no one dared to directly refute her statement. Only Tenshangin and Hana mustered up the courage to raise their hands cautiously and said:
"I have also seen the data. Sister Yuuchi has arrested almost more than 100 people. There is basically no interpersonal contact between them, and there is no corresponding communication record."
"So...can we think that these people were not organized to spread rumors, but because they could not endure the living environment on the ship, they unanimously wanted to encourage the surrounding residents to live in the Aegelaos sector. Woolen cloth?"
"That should be it." Yuuki Izumo agreed, making Tenjoyin and Hua Xin feel at ease. "Your Highness, these people are currently under control. Should they be killed, detained, or how to deal with them?"
If you kill him, it means that you will adopt an iron-blooded dictatorship in the future. Those who follow me will prosper and those who go against me will perish. If you choose to imprison, it is almost equivalent to making peace with the mud. It will delay the time and cannot solve the problem itself. It is a conservative who blindly pursues stability. practice.
But Xia Qingyu's thinking is different from ordinary people after all, so she just said coldly:
"Don't they want to immigrate? Just expel them from the ship and exile them to the Aegelaos star port."
The crowd fell silent again.
Deportation doesn't seem to be out of the question. After being kicked out, there will be no way to continue spreading rumors on the ship.It seems a bit strange to let these guys get what they want...
"Understood." Yuuki Izumo continued, "The second thing is the technical support contract signed with the Barr Group. You need to see it in person."
Xia Qingyu took the contract and glanced at it.
The conditions cannot be said to be "favorable", it would be more accurate to describe them as "profit-making".With a complete set of food cell factory equipment, as well as on-ship engineers and technical support, it can be said that as long as this contract is signed, there will be no problems with the food resources of the starship humans, and they will even eat better than they did during the Gao Tianyuan period.
The only question is, what did Chen Ziang and the others do on the planet to make the Barr Group give such a free deal?
"I have no problem." Xia Qingyu threw the contract on the table, "Give it to Song Mingyuan and let him arrange manpower to deal with the Barr Group."
Tianshangyuan and Hua also breathed a sigh of relief.Her parents had indeed complained about the poor food recently. Although white rice and vinegared seaweed were enough, eating rice balls all day long was unbearable.
With these technologies, dietary problems should be greatly alleviated.
"The third thing is the 'gospel' plan being carried out by the Bakht Group..." This time it was Rio Hokaze's turn to start the report.
--------
The problem with the evangelical project is that it is a product of the occult and cannot be explicitly prohibited by current laws.
In other words, there is no way to solve the problem peacefully. Even if you take the materials and confront the Aurora Charity Company directly, the other party can just pretend to be stupid and say "What is this, I don't know" and get away with it.
The only way is to directly raid the studio and use violence to block the insertion of gospel audio.
On the day of the concert, Xia Zili was putting on makeup backstage, and took a look at Suzuna Tsukimiya who was standing next to her—she was now Kiritani Maki’s assistant.
Tsukimiya Suzuna shook her head, meaning she hadn't found it yet.
Since the key to the plan is to insert gospel into the concert broadcast, of course the broadcast studio cannot be set up at the concert site openly, otherwise it will be equivalent to telling others, "Come and sneak attack on me."
What has been confirmed is that Aurora Charity Company used wireless transcoding technology to transmit the sound signal received by the concert singer's microphone to an unknown place through the network. After processing, it was then transmitted back to the live broadcast via the network and transmitted to the live broadcast. platform.
