Chapter 1621: Neighbors Who Can’t Agree
Shen Yuanbiao said, “The spread of the rumors depends on what the other party wants, such as ‘thoroughly investigating the actions that led to Universe Corporation’s rise.’ These words are nothing more than an exaggeration and cannot be counted.
“Has the other party put forward a request that is more realistic and can be supported by the public?”
“Yes.”
Shen Yuanbiao responded, “Now, the Azure Alliance has proposed to thoroughly investigate the Red Creek Project.
“At first, the natives of the Other World attacked the Red Creek Project, which led to the explosion of the crystal warehouse. Then, the project’s serious deficits and the fact that real reserves of the Red Radiance Jade vein were much lower than expected were exposed.
“Now, the nine ga corporations have proposed to abandon the Red Dragon Army and march into the middle and lower reaches of the Raging Tiger River to exact revenge on the Other World’s natives. Whether this ‘corporate war’ will be successful or not, it will squeeze out and consu an astronomical amount of resources, which will have a far-reaching impact on all the citizens of Dragon City.
“Therefore, the Azure Alliance has suggested that the investigation of the Red Creek Project should not be conducted by Universe Corporation alone, or by the descendants of the nine great cultivation families from the relevant departnts. Instead, a more open and extensive investigation team should be established. The mbers should include at least one-third of the superhumans from poor families and one-third of the ordinary people who have not awakened their supernatural powers. They should be forensic doctors, auditors, accountants, chemists, trace experts, and criminal investigators. Moreover, the results of the investigation should be exposed on social dia in real-ti every day. Only then would the public be convinced.
“This proposal received a lot of support on the Internet. More than 90% who voted on many websites supported the Azure Alliance’s initiative to set up such an investigation team.
“In fact, the ordinary superhumans, who gathered on the streets for the underground black market and clamored to purchase cheap cultivation resources, have also changed their slogan. They want to thoroughly investigate the Red Creek Project, and they’re demanding ‘truth and justice.'”
“Yes, that’s it.”
Shen Yuanbao closed his eyes and let out a long sigh. “The underground black market matter is ultimately a small issue that’s not that serious. They’ll deal with a few of the staff mbers first, then the higher-ups will co forward and apologize. After that, the nine great cultivation families will each spend so resources to temporarily silence the troublemakers, and the matter will slowly pass.
“Investigating the Red Creek Project is the real goal.
“The Azure Alliance wants to take this opportunity to seize investigation rights, supervision rights, and even jurisdiction over the nine ga corporations!”
......
“So, it really is Lu Siya’s doing?”
There was a glint in Shen Yuanbiao’s eyes. “We ended up underestimating that witch. How can her thods be so ruthless?”
“No, it’s not Lu Siya!”
Shen Yuanbao opened his eyes abruptly. The brilliance surging in his eyes was like a blue fla triggered by the leakage of natural gas in the depths of a glacier.
“Lu Siya is indeed one of the few outstanding figures among the younger generation who can compare to ng Chao.
“But she’s still too young.
“You showed a lot of ‘evidence’ earlier. If it weren’t an old person who has fought for Dragon City for at least thirty to fifty years like , it would have been impossible for him or her to do all this.
“So, it can’t be Lu Siya. At least it can’t be Lu Siya alone.”
Shen Yuanbiao was stunned. “It’s not her? Then who’s going against our Universe Corporation behind the scenes?”
Shen Yuanbao lowered his eyelids and pondered for a mont with a bloody smirk.
“The nine ga corporations are responsible,” Shen Yuanbao said faintly.
“Wh-What?”
Shen Yuanbiao was dumbfounded. “Aren’t we the nine ga corporations?”
“Wrong. Our Universe Corporation is only one of the nine ga corporations.”
Shen Yuanbao said, “Among the nine ga corporations, there are eight other ones besides us.
“If I’m not wrong, the one who exposed the shocking insider information should be soone from the other eight ga corporations, or even a few of them.
“Lu Siya’s reaction was just very fast. After she saw all the shocking insider information, she thought that she had found the weakest link among the nine ga corporations, so she launched a surprise attack on us.”
“This, this...”
Shen Yuanbiao was puzzled. “Why? What will the other eight ga corporations gain from exposing such shocking insider information?”
“Obviously, they’ll gain sothing.”
Shen Yuanbao smiled. “Let ask you. If the Azure Alliance were to take the lead and set up a special investigation team with one-third of the superhumans and one-third of the ordinary people to investigate everything related to the Red Creek Project, do you think we would be able to accept it?”
“Of course not!”
Shen Yuanbiao’s expression clearly beca unnatural.
As a big shot in charge of Universal Corporation’s core business, he undoubtedly knew how many hidden secrets the Red Creek Project had. Such information was not ant for outsiders. He had also obtained a lot of benefits from the Red Creek Project and knew that the crystal warehouse’s explosion was definitely not as simple as it looked.
Once the matter was thoroughly investigated, he could be burned at any mont.
“One-third of the superhumans from poor families and one-third of the ordinary people make up two-thirds of the total. That’s an absolute majority!”
“Such a prejudiced and biased special investigation team can’t possibly co to a fair and just conclusion. It will only make our Universe Corporation a lamb at the rcy of others!” Shen Yuanbiao replied.
“That’s right.”
Shen Yuanbao said, “Universe Corporation must not be a lamb for slaughter!
“The problem is that the Azure Alliance has taken advantage of the underground black market and won a majority of the ordinary superhumans’ support. No matter how low their realms are, they have the absolute advantage in numbers. As the saying goes, ‘more ants can kill an elephant.’ With so many regular superhumans gathered together, they are a force that cannot be underestimated.
“What if they talk amongst themselves and set up such a special investigation team to enter the Red Creek Valley and even Universe Corporation’s headquarters building to carry out a so-called investigation? What should we do then?”
“Let them try!”
Shen Yuanbiao snorted coldly. His slightly square face revealed the domineering air of a cool elder brother. “Universal Corporation’s headquarters building is definitely not a place where they can co and go as they please!”
“Then we have to make a move.” Shen Yuanbao sighed.
“They are forcing our hand,” Shen Yuanbiao said.
“If we really make a move, will Universal Corporation be able to gain the advantage?” Shen Yuanbao asked.
The question instantly exposed Shen Yuanbiao’s nacing aura.
“It’ll be difficult.”
Shen Yuanbiao said hatefully, “It’s not a matter of whether we can win or not. The key is that this is the f*cking information age. Everyone goes out with at least three or five caras on them.
“In terms of fist power, the scums of the Azure Alliance are certainly not our match. But if we actually have a conflict with this so-called ‘special investigation team’ and the conflict is recorded and posted on the Internet, we’re finished!”
