Chapter 069 Gold Bricks
Aldridge Killian, who had long since become different from the past, was indeed surprised by someone's prophetic ability, but he soon returned to normal.
"After years of avoiding the president's ban on "unethical biological research" issued by my think tank has invented an inconspicuous gadget."
“We call this idea a 'desperate situation'.”
Aldridge Killian said, then took out a small silver cuboid device from his body, and said:
"Sorry, the environment here doesn't seem to be suitable. I need a dark environment."
"It's okay, it's easy to do." Liu Rui'an, who knew exactly what the other party was going to do, clapped his hands after saying that.
The next moment, the originally sunny terrace darkened in Aldridge Killian's shocked eyes.
Before this person could figure out what technology this was, he heard Liu Rui'an laugh:
"Is this environment OK?"
"certainly."
Aldridge Killian, who looked up at Umbrella Technology in his heart, took a small device similar to an earplug from the silver rectangular device just now and placed it behind his left ear.
Then he took out three silver "marbles" and threw them on the table, and continued to explain:
“This idea is related to the human brain.”
Under the constraints of a certain force field, the three marbles quickly appeared an equilateral triangle on the table.
The light from these three marbles quickly projected a gorgeous image above the two.
"Wait for a moment, this is the universe, I made a mistake." Aldridge Killian, who pretended to make a mistake, said: "But I just need this..."
As he said that, he pressed the remote control in his hand.
The next moment, the projection of the cosmic star map immediately changed into an image of the human brain, or to be precise, Aldridge Killian's brain.
"This is the brain, but they are abnormally similar, aren't they?"
Aldridge Killian, who was watching the scene in front of him, was still a little excited even though it was not the first time he saw it.
“Very good idea.”
Liu Ruian, who leaned on the back of the chair, praised the other party's brain picture while communicating with the star spirit, allowing the other party to record and analyze the image.
"Thank you, this is my brain." Aldridge Killian, who had a look of swaying look in his eyes, said.
"So that's it." Liu Rui'an nodded and said with no surprise or surprise on his face.
Aldridge Killian, who originally thought that his research results would attract enough attention, was inevitably disappointed with someone's reaction.
However, this "true" Man quickly cleaned up his emotions, clicked on the small device behind his left ear, and continued to explain:
"You are in my brain now, or this is a live broadcast."
"Are you sure?" Liu Rui'an, who was indeed curious about this project, asked.
"certainly."
Aldridge Killian said as he pinched his arm. At almost the same time, in the image originally dominated by blue, some orange and red lines flashed instantly.
"This is the primary body sensory cortex, which is the pain sensory area of the brain."
"But, this is what I want to show you."
Aldridge Killian said as he reached out and pulled it lightly in the projection of his brain, and the image like a starry sky was quickly pulled closer and enlarged a lot.
"Now the 'desperate situation' completely develops and controls the neural potential of the organism, and then sends the signal to...here."
As the closer and enlarged image stopped, a strange image appeared in the sight of the two.
"This is essentially a waste, and this tells us..."
Before Aldridge Killian finished speaking, Liu Rui'an, who was sitting beside him, suddenly said:
"Tell us, our brains, all our DNA is destined to be upgraded, right?"
Aldridge Killian, whose lines were stolen, looked instinctively nodded and said:
"You're right, that's it."
Unfortunately, Liu Rui'an, who has never had a good impression of men, did not stop there, but continued to smile and said:
"So, your 'desperate situation' can invade any organic organism to a certain extent and reencode DNA, right?"
"you……"
Aldridge Killian, who didn't believe that the other party had discovered the use of "desperate situation" just after watching his own demonstration, wanted to ask how the other party knew.
But when I think of the title of "Prophet", the shock in my heart could not be concealed.
"It's indeed a very good project, but it sounds like this project should be of highly weaponized technology to me." Liu Ruian, who was very satisfied with the other party's reaction, said.
"Yes, sir, but 'desperate situation' still has a broad and boundless prospect." Aldridge Killian, who had lost his confidence when he came, said.
I was very satisfied with the fact that this kind of genius in front of me was poured cold water on me after a few words. Liu Rui'an nodded and said:
"I agree with this point, so, Dr. Killian, what is your purpose in coming to you this time?"
In fact, Aldridge Killian's purpose is very simple. In addition to the huge amount of funds that Umbrella Technology can provide, the more important thing is to take a fancy to the biological research foundation owned by Umbrella Technology.
It is not surprising to think about it. The AIM research team can only stay in places like basements to conduct research. Even if the funds can be supported from certain forces, the research equipment is often not something that can be done with money.
Of course, it is not ruled out that the possibility of Aldridge Killian being introduced in the world because of the recent glory of Umbrella Technology Company.
"One billion yuan of funds? And it's just the first step of capital investment?" Liu Ruian asked in the face of this seemingly excessive request.
"Yes, sir, please believe that these investments are worth it." Aldridge Killian nodded.
"Dr. Killian, I can't help you with money." Liu Rui'an, who was silent for a moment, shook his head and said.
"Why, sir, can't you see the value of 'desperate situation'?" asked Aldridge Killian, who seemed calm on the surface.
Liu Rui'an, who was sitting opposite the other person's temperature was immediately increased, and he didn't know that this "real" Man Man was a little excited.
"No, no, Dr. Killian, you misunderstood what I mean." Liu Rui'an, who shook his index finger, said: "I just said that there is no way to help you with money, but I don't want to invest in this project."
If someone else said this, Aldridge Killian would definitely give the other party a good look, but after seeing someone's ability to "prophet" and his look that didn't look like he was playing with him, he could only ask:
"What do you mean?"
Faced with this question, Liu Rui'an did not answer, but stood up and said:
"Dr. Killian, please come with me."
A few minutes later, Aldridge Killian, full of confusion, followed someone in a safe elevator to a secret warehouse.
After the door of the warehouse was opened, Aldridge Killian, who was stunned by the golden light that came to his face, was completely confused.
Walking into this large warehouse, Liu Rui'an casually picked up a gold brick engraved with two rows of words 9999 and 10KG, and said with a smile:
"Dr. Killian, please understand that although 'desperate situation' is a good project, it can easily cause huge trouble."
"And I am the most afraid of trouble, so it's not enough to give you money directly in terms of funds, and you can only give this."
To be honest, AIM is not short of money with the support of some forces, but after seeing the gold bricks in this warehouse, I couldn't help but be stunned.
There is no way, it’s not that Aldridge Killian’s psychological tolerance is too small, but that there are so many bricks in this warehouse that are a bit scary.
Just kidding, the official gold reserves in the entire United States are only more than 8,000 tons.
Even if the gold from all countries around the world is added together, it will only look like 15,000 tons.
Aldridge Killian's estimate of the total amount of gold in this warehouse will not be much worse even if it does not exceed this number.
Aldridge Killian is not surprised by the fact that private gold reserves are something.
After all, although the price of gold is also affected by market fluctuations, it is still a hard currency for the human civilization of the gold standard.
But the warehouse in front of me also has at least tens of thousands of tons of gold reserves, which is really nothing to do with the private reserve of gold.
"Mr. Liu, do you mean these are your investments?" asked Aldridge Killian, who pointed to the huge block in front of him, and tried to calm down his mood.
"No, no, no, I will only give you fifty tons of the first investment. I will continue to invest when there is a return." Liu Rui'an, who threw the gold bricks in his hand, shook his head and said.
"Fifty tons?" Aldridge Killian, who picked up the gold bricks quickly, converted the fifty tons of gold into cash at the first time.
Even if the current gold price fluctuates a bit severely, and if such a large amount of gold is sold out in a short time, it will definitely suffer a loss.
But even at a low price of one thousand dollars per ounce, these fifty tons of gold can bring you nearly two billion dollars in funds.
Faced with this unexpected investment amount, Aldridge Killian was first surprised, but then some bad thoughts arose.
There is no way. For a "successful person" who is ready to rule the United States, the 2 billion yuan of funds is far less than the warehouse gold in front of him, and it is even less valuable than Umbrella Technology.
But when he met Liu Rui'an's smile and was very playful, Aldridge Killian had no idea why a creepy feeling suddenly appeared in his heart.
