Chapter 986: Sign of Life and Death (actual 6,300 words)
In the battle between these companies in the Crimson Federation and the outside world, each shareholder must contribute.
Although the company also has its own armed forces, the company's armed forces are mainly aimed at minor frictions or public security.
In large-scale external wars, all are private armed forces of various shareholders.
When these private armed personnel are together, they also assign tasks separately.
Anything can happen in a war, being ambushed or something.
Valerie's father was in a foreign war and fell into an ambush by the other party because of his rashness.
John Li was in charge of the mobile unit at the time, but the rescue of the mobile unit had priority.
So John Li did not save Valerie’s father immediately.
Valerie's father was killed during this war, and he didn't even have the chance to pay the ransom.
So the two people naturally became enemies, but the company later proved that John Li's choice was right.
In the armed force of this kind of company structure, you have to bear the responsibility for your own mistakes.
Valerie’s father didn’t even receive a pension from the company because he disobeyed the commander’s orders.
If Valerie's father was killed while following orders, he would receive a large pension.
Because the company has a company system, if you don’t obey orders on the battlefield, what will be the final result?
And there are deeper things, and no one can tell what some people are thinking.
Maybe he deliberately disrupted the conductor's rhythm.
As for what Valerie said, there are many ways to play, but as an enemy, they usually choose force.
It's a bit similar to the duel on the Empire's side, but the Crimson Federation's side is more brutal and fierce.
“Haha, there’s a good show to watch!”
“I’ve been bored at home recently!”
“That’s right, I owe a lot of debts outside, so I’m just waiting for the company to pay dividends this year!”
“I’m also waiting for the company to pay dividends. Then buy a batch of new equipment.”
“I think the development of the company is still the most important.”
“Shit, there are many people who know about the Golden Lion City, and they are not the only ones who are worried about it. Us.”
"I also feel that the money is most secure in my own bag."
"We have occupied three-fifths of Black Star City's territory, and the other two companies are also eyeing us."
>"It is said that Maya Company's headquarters sent a group of people."
"Blue Shield Company's headquarters also sent a group of people."
"These two companies have no good intentions." Yang Bo listened to the various shareholders talking in the reception room.
The other two companies in Vicky City are branches of large companies here.
Of course, these two companies are branches of large companies, but the relationship between them is just equivalent to a franchise.
If these branches need help from the head office, it will be settled by brothers.
Black Star Company has a total of seventeen shareholders. The largest shareholder is the Poppy family. The remaining shareholders have different shareholding ratios. The highest is ten percent and the lowest is only one percent.
“I think the purity of the company’s radiation protection drugs is too high!”
"I also think so. Our sales data of radiation protection drugs have declined."
"I think the company should take the initiative. How about we bring some polluting organisms from outside into the city?"
< br>"I heard that someone was smuggling anti-radiation drugs?" Then these shareholders talked about another thing.
Radiation protection medicine, this is a medicine that 80% of the people in the Crimson Federation need.
Using this drug can prevent radiation damage.
Most cities in the Crimson Federation do not have complete environmental protection purification systems.
So the superpowers in these places are constantly polluting the local environment.
A polluted environment has a certain chance of giving birth to some polluted creatures.
Although this probability is very low, many creatures have a large base number.
And these contaminated organisms will also be contaminated once they are eaten by other organisms.
The river in Vichy City is slightly polluted.
So everything on this planet has a little bit of slight pollution, which is radiation.
Although pollution in the air cannot cause fatal harm to people.
But you need to drink water and eat. If these are combined, they will cause serious harm to the body.
Radiation protection drugs are controlled by major companies.
Although these anti-radiation drugs are cheap, they cannot be afforded to be taken every day.
And you must eat it, unless you are willing to wait to die.
The cost of making anti-radiation drugs is extremely low, but all the materials and production technology of this drug are controlled by major companies.
Once someone manufactures this kind of drug privately, they will be cracked down by various local companies.
However, the phenomenon of smuggling anti-radiation drugs between cities is extremely serious.
"Black!" Yang Bo silently evaluated the company in his heart.
In fact, the company's system is only relatively obvious, and this company monopolizes all industries in this region.
In essence, it is not much different from the alliance.
It just means that there is more than one company in a region in the alliance, and the industry in a region of the alliance is dominated by many companies.
The company system is similar to the lord system of the empire. On the contrary, the lords of various territories in the empire have greater power.
"Let's have a meeting." The company's major shareholder finally arrived, and without any polite greetings, everyone entered the conference room.
The company’s major shareholder looks like a bald, yellow-skinned young man in his thirties.
He is nearly two meters tall, with short hair and a Chinese-shaped face.
Wearing a black leather jacket, the expressions of these shareholders were expressionless.
“Let me report the situation now!” This young man’s name is Tate Bobby.
He is also the fifth heir of the Poppy family and the eldest son of the current patriarch of the Poppy family.
Forty-two years old, Class A, said to be a psychic superpower.
It is precisely because he is a spiritual superpower that he came to the company to be the chairman of the board.
“A hacker attack occurred on Alliance Tianze Star. The federal and alliance security departments have confirmed that the source of the attack was in Golden Lion City.”
“Alliance Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ministry of Defense, Homeland The Ministry of Security has condemned Golden Lion City.”
"And the Commander-in-Chief of the Alliance's First Fleet said that it was our Federation that provoked the Alliance."
"The special investigation team sent by the Alliance will arrive in Golden Lion City in twenty days to conduct an investigation."
>"During this period, all B-level and above superpowers in Golden Lion City are not allowed to leave the city."
As soon as Tate said this, a shareholder said: "How does the alliance know who is there? Inside the city?"
Tate sneered when he heard this: "It's no problem if you want to leave individually, but if they encounter trouble outside the city, they can't come out in large numbers."
"This is our opportunity."
"There will eventually be a conflict between Golden Lion City and Vicky City."
At this time, another shareholder asked: "The other two companies Are you willing to participate too?”
Yang Bo was speechless when he heard what these shareholders said.
In the conflict between Golden Lion City and Vicky City, the other two companies may not necessarily help, and they may even hinder it.
Because the other two companies of Weicheng were already dissatisfied with Black Star Company occupying three-fifths of the territory.
If the companies in Golden Lion City are willing to give up part of their land, the other two companies in Vicky City may raise their hands to welcome each other to move in.
Between companies and within companies, naked interests are the main priority.
"You idiot, if you were from two other companies, how would you choose?" Someone asked directly and angrily.
“Our Black Star Company occupies three-fifths of the first floor of Vicky, as well as the jurisdiction of the rivers in the city. The other two companies have long been dissatisfied. If we start with Golden Lion City in the future If there is a conflict, I don’t want the other two companies to join in, because they might stab us in the back.”
"Yes, yes!" There are also smart people among the shareholders.
That's the case with superpowers. Although some people are very powerful, they are still a little bit unsmart.
Because the strength of superpowers has little to do with each person’s IQ.
Of course, it is not ruled out that some people do this deliberately. Anyway, there are all kinds of people in society, and everyone has different ideas.
"I propose that we not divide this year's dividends and use them to deal with the Golden Lion City." Tate said straightforwardly.
"How much can we get in dividends this year?"
"I still have a large debt that I haven't paid yet?"
"What are you going to do with the money?" These shareholders asked again.
When Tate heard this, he took out a thick document, asked someone to get a copy for everyone, and then said: "This year's dividend will probably reach 6.5 billion. ”
“Because time is tight, my plan is to hire someone.”
"Hire some teams from the Free Mercenary Guild, the Adventurers Guild, and the Bounty Hunter Guild."
"Of course, these teams are mainly for spying on intelligence. We still need to work together to do it."
< br>Yang Bo looked at the relatively simple battle plan in his hand.
The high-level superpowers in Golden Lion City cannot leave the city on a large scale, which means that high-level mecha masters and fighter pilots cannot leave the city.
And the company now wants to turn money into its own fighting power, and there is simply not enough time.
Because twenty days later, the alliance's special investigation team arrived, and the company had no way to take action.
There is just one thing that makes Yang Bo very confused, why is the Crimson Federation so cooperative this time, and why is Karaya State so cooperative.
It should have something to do with the internal fighting among their top brass.
Of course, the Crimson Federation’s management of the Karaya Gang is very weak.
So the Crimson Federation will not take a stance on this incident, because taking a stance has no effect.
Maybe the Crimson Federation hopes that Karaya will not cooperate with the alliance.
Then the Crimson Federation can use the alliance to clean up Karaya.
“Let’s take a look at the plan first, and then we will vote.”
“This opportunity may not be available in the future!”
“Golden Lion City’s properties Richer than us!" Tate said again.
"A mob." Yang Bo looked at the shareholders in front of him and the battle plan in hand.
It feels like this company is like a grassroots team.
There is no detailed plan or detailed explanation, and there is no comparison of strength between the enemy and ourselves.
Of course Yang Bo also knows that these are full of unknowns, and the company must take it one step at a time.
Step by step to find out what the other party is like.
"I abstain!" Yang Bo said as soon as Tate finished speaking.
Tate glanced at John Li. The Bobi family was quite wary of shareholders who held more than 5% of the company's shares. For shareholders whose shares do not exceed 5%, they will adopt a win-win attitude.
Because the company's shares are not static.
Peter felt slightly disappointed when he saw John Li expressing his stance like this.
"Raise your hands if everyone agrees with this operation!" After waiting for almost ten minutes, Tate stood up and said.
The following sixteen shareholders, John Li, abstained from voting.
There are also fifteen shareholders. Each of these shareholders has one vote. There are no more rules regarding voting rights.
Because the changes in the company's shares are sometimes quite large.
"Ten votes in favor, six votes against, and one abstention." Tate looked at the number of shareholders raising their hands and said.
"Does anyone have any questions about the results?" Tate then asked again.
Face this result, no one has any objection.
"Next, the company will formulate a detailed plan, and everyone will need to express their position at that time." Tate said again.
If the company uses more than a certain amount of funds, the shareholders on the board of directors need to vote by a show of hands.
Just like this time Tate is planning to hire a free mercenary group and an adventure group, then there will be a vote on the hiring fee.
Because this kind of fee is easy to be tricky, although mercenary teams and adventure teams of different levels have quotations, they are only one price range.
"Alas!!" Peter sighed as the shareholders' meeting ended so quickly.
For some shareholders, it is safe to keep the money in their own pockets and use it for themselves.
There are also some shareholders who want to make money safely and do not want other things to happen.
But more shareholders still hope to make more money.
"Alas!" Yang Bo also knew that the war between companies was basically a head-on confrontation.
Because it is impossible for each company to command its own armed forces as smoothly as those of the alliance.
Because the various teams of the armed forces of each company participating in the war give priority to the orders of their own team boss.
For example, Yang Bo leads dozens of his guards to participate in the company's external battles. These guards will give priority to listening to Yang Bo's orders.
So in Yang Bo's view, the war between companies is a competition of hard power.
"John Li, do you dare to play with me!!" Seeing that the shareholders' meeting was over, Valerie stood up and stared at John Li.
“Oh oh oh!”
“There’s a good show to watch!”
“Bet, bet!” When other shareholders saw this scene, they started to cheer. .
Because for these shareholders, if the two shareholders in front of them both lose, other shareholders may benefit.
"If we have the ability, the two of us will end it ourselves. Whoever survives will own everything the other has!" Yang Bo responded calmly to this provocation.
"John Li, are you telling the truth?" Valerie hesitated when she heard this.
“Originally I didn’t want to get involved with you. Your good-for-nothing dad doesn’t obey orders, so you still expect others to save him?”
“The company has already made a conclusion about this, but you and your Just like dad, not only is he useless, but he is also unreasonable." Yang Bo looked at Valerie and laughed!
"John Li, don't you bastardize me here. My father is not here for the company. You are obviously the closest to my father, why don't you save him first!" Valerie heard what Yang Bo said and cursed.
"I like people who obey the rules the most. If your father doesn't obey the rules, he deserves it. Don't talk so much nonsense. Do you dare?" Yang Bo looked impatient.
"Okay, I'll bet your life on you." Valerie was so excited by these words that she couldn't stand down at all.
Valerie feels a little regretful now. The reason why she often makes trouble for John Li is because her status in the family is not stable enough.
Because his father not only has one child, but also other heirs.
My father died unexpectedly. As the first heir, I never expected to inherit such a huge undertaking so early.
"Then let's just choose a different day and settle the matter today, so as not to waste time going back and forth." Yang Bo didn't give the other party too much time at all.
Originally, Yang Bo also wanted to find an opportunity to show his face, because only if you are strong enough, will someone come to you.
The other party came to show his face to me, how could he give up this opportunity.
As for some of the other party's calculations, he simply ignored them.
In the Crimson Federation, it makes sense to have a big fist.
People in the Crimson Federation like to say: There is no need to reason with dead people.
"Okay!"
"Finally some fun!"
"Get on the ring!"
"Draw lots of life and death!" Others Shareholders are also clamoring.
"Okay, let's ask the shareholders present to bear witness. How about we have a life-and-death lottery?" Valerie looked at John Li and gritted her teeth.
The lottery of life and death is a way of playing in the Crimson Federation, that is, the same method is randomly selected, and then the two sides compete.
Gambling in the Crimson Federation is more rampant than in the Empire, with all kinds of gambling methods.
Dueling between people is already very common.
Animals and animals, bugs and bugs, humans and animals, anyway, as long as there are gambling methods in history, the Crimson Federation has them.
There are also forms of gambling that are both entertaining and entertaining, such as the women's hand-to-hand combat competition, where a group of beauties, dressed very sexy, engage in hand-to-hand combat either one-on-one or in a group.
“Okay.” Yang Bo also directly agreed.
Then Yang Bo signed a life and death contract with the other party.
The two people first draw a set of numbers and compare them, and the person with the larger number draws lots.
It turns out that Valerie’s number is relatively high.
Then the other party started drawing lots. The Crimson Federation had such a system.
"Unlimited duel with bare hands!" Valerie looked at the text displayed in the virtual projection, jumped up and shouted loudly.
"John Lee, you bastard, I will blow your head off."
"Hahaha!!" Valerie laughed.
Yang Bo still has an expression on his face now. As long as he wins, he will own the other party's shares.
"Then give it a try!" Yang Bo just said a few words lightly.
There is a venue for arena matches within the company, because various fighting matches are often held within the company.
This method is also used to resolve conflicts within the company.
The diameter of the arena is five hundred meters. Yang Bo put on fighting clothes with the help of his own guards.
The opponent also put on fighting clothes. Because it was unarmed fighting, both parties could not bring any weapons and equipment.
"Son of a bitch!!"
"I want you to die clearly!" After Valerie jumped on the machine, she looked at John Li fiercely, and then a light of energy flashed from her body, and her whole body It skyrocketed into a giant three and a half meters tall.
“Haha, you didn’t expect it!”
“You bastard, you never expected that my aunt has such super powers!”
The other party is now like a giant, And the skin on his body looks like rock.
"What kind of super power is this?"
"These should be two super powers?" Yang Bo muttered in his heart.
"Place your bet, place your bet!" At this time, the referee quickly shouted loudly.
"I bet on myself to win. Anyway, if I lose, the money belongs to others." In the Crimson Federation, players can bet on themselves to win, so Yang Bo shouted out loudly.
Others watching around were still annoyed because Valerie's superpower was too strong. If they all won with this, they wouldn't win much.
"How much pressure do you have, John Lee?" Upon hearing such a good thing, a shareholder outside the ring quickly asked.
"I bet one billion." Yang Bo shouted quickly.
“Place your bet, place your bet!” the shareholders outside the ring shouted one after another.
Then everyone saw John Li’s guard delivering the watch to John Li.
Then everyone bet on Valerie to win, and of course a small number of people bet on John Lee to win.
Superpowers can possess many kinds of superpowers at the same time, but it is rare that two kinds of superpowers can be integrated with each other.
Tate looked at Valerie's current appearance with a smile on his lips.
If Valerie beats John Li to death, she will own 11% of the company's shares. Then she will use her own means to get rid of Valerie, because Valerie's current position is not stable.
The Poppy family will then own more shares.
The more shares the company has, the more rights it has and the more income it will earn.
Yang Bo looked at the giantess in front of him, it was so irritating to his eyes.
Many shareholders within the company are wary of Valerie because her superpowers are too strong.
"Everyone is in your position!" The arena inside the company is quite simple, with a surrounding wall made of battleship armor.
There is no such thing as an energy shield, because the company does not have that much financial resources to do this.
There was a sharp contrast in the arena. On one side was a three-and-a-half-meter-tall black giant, his body full of explosive power, with strong energy fluctuations on his body, and his skin turned to stone.
The only bad thing is that the whole body is naked and it looks irritating to the eyes.
On the other hand, the other one is still wearing unarmed fighting clothes.
"Start!" The referee started.
Boom! !
To everyone's surprise, there was a loud bang on the ground under John Li's feet, and a large hole opened in the ground, which then closed instantly.
Everyone was startled, but John Li reacted in time and jumped up before being caught by the big hole in the ground.
“Insidious!!” Everyone watching gasped, Valerie was so insidious.
At this moment, Valerie’s entire giant was like a cannonball, hitting John Li who jumped up.
Obviously the other party also had a plan. If John Li was caught in the big hole on the ground, Valerie would just make a move and fall from the sky.
If John Li dodges, he will be hit directly in the air.
Everyone's eyes widened, expecting John Li to be hit and vomit blood.
There was no violent collision as everyone expected, because just when Valerie's huge body was about to hit John Li.
John Li's body actually lifted up a distance again, so that Valerie's body passed under John Li.
The moment the two passed by, John Li kicked Valerie on the huge head.
Valerie’s head was actually kicked back.
And her body continued to rush forward due to inertia, and her huge body hit the armored wall of the battleship heavily.
At this time, two pieces of information appeared in Yang Bo's mind.
Crazy energy +32!
Earth element control +32!
