The Ultimate Evolution Chapter 23: Blackmail
Chapter 23 Extortion and Blackmail
The next morning, Fang Senyan got up early in the morning, and after enjoying a rich breakfast, he took a taxi to Eleventh Street where Seberding Computer Company is located. At the time of departure, the traffic on the street was still smooth, but when it was about to reach its destination, he realized the severe traffic jam in the super metropolis of Los Angeles, which was even worse than the era of Fang Senyan.
In desperation, Fang Senyan asked Seiping Computer's address and got off and walked. Fortunately, the company's headquarters is extremely magnificently built. Even in the high-rise buildings in Los Angeles, it can be regarded as a standout. Almost as soon as you look up, you can see the company's huge and large logo.
But from the moment I got off the car, Fang Senyan felt a strong sense of danger, as if standing on the top of a high-rise building and looking down without a guardrail. It was terrifying, and the closer I got there The thicker the sense of danger ...
Fortunately, the destination of Fangsenyan is not this huge and dangerous company, but the Bast steakhouse hundreds of meters away. The environment of this steakhouse is generally not very good. It is old and greasy everywhere. The leather pads on the chairs are cracked and cracked. However, it should be because the taste is quite good. It still shows a tendency to be overcrowded. Fang Senyan waited. It took half an hour to sit down in a position.
Although Fang Senyan only consumed a cup of coffee in his seat, in front of the generous tip, the waiter can say that he knows everything. Thirty seconds later, Fang Senyan knew that the middle-aged bald rosacea man sitting in the third row next to himself was the target of his trip: engineer Vincent. I also know that he has some time before leaving after breakfast.
Obviously, Vincent ’s appetite is very good. There are already several empty plates stacked on his table. When Fang Senyan looked over, he was dealing with a sandwich with bacon. By the way, I swallowed a bite of hot milk oatmeal, patted the chest with a contented heart, and forked another half of Russian sausage.
Fang Senyan beckoned and paid Vincent engineer's bill together, but his behavior did not gain the latter's friendship. Vincent wiped his mouth with a handkerchief that could not be seen clearly, and looked at it with a vigilant eye, which was very impolite:
"I will not look at you differently because of that bill, lad, no one can let me put water in the interview."
This engineer really has a terrible personality as in the task evaluation. But Fang Senyan did not discourage, but stared at Vincent's eyes very seriously:
"Oh, I ’m not interested in working for the computer company of Septing Ding-by the way, it does n’t mean that you have to belittle your company-five minutes, Mr. Vincent, I only need to take five minutes Time, if you still want to leave after this, then I will take the initiative to pull the door for you. "
Fang Senyan said, on the one hand, he had noticed Vincent ’s slightly yellow index finger, so he took out a Havana torn cigar from his arms, cut it and handed it over. Obviously, this one-hundred-dollar cigar successfully cushioned the impatient and arrogant Vincent engineers. He snorted coldly from inside his nostrils, lit this deep-colored, strong, powerful cigar, and took a sip, letting the mellow smoke linger in his mouth for a while, and then spit out gently , Then closed her eyes slightly:
"Say it."
Fang Senyan paused for a moment, and it felt as if he was seriously planning the language before saying:
"I am a resident living near Seventy-seventh Avenue-the place where large-scale terrorist attacks were reported yesterday."
Vinson nodded characteristically, motioned to know that, and then said indifferently:
"Four minutes left."
"There was a violent explosion near my house. At that time I was taking a nap at home, and the glass of the window was broken. After a while, the police were surrounded by the police downstairs. After the police were removed from the police, I was cleaning. I found this when I was in the room. "
After Fang Senyan finished speaking, he stretched out his palm. There was a seemingly ordinary thing in his palm, but on it shining a strange light blue current light. It was the mission prop: the main CPU chip (incomplete)!
Vincent was closing his eyes and swallowing the clouds, and perfunctory arrogance came out, but when he saw this thing in Fang Senyan's hands, he first looked at it carelessly, then his face gradually became Seriously, after sitting upright, he took the chip from Fang Senyan's hand.
This Vincent engineer has some abilities, and was once one of the main project leaders in the company, but he usually does not trim, and his personality is also quite irritable and offended many people. In recent years, he has been gradually marginalized by the top management. Change.
In spite of this, Vincent heard the news yesterday, saying that the FBI found "some items that greatly exceeded the current state of the art" and it has been handed over to the company's headquarters. (According to the description of the movie plot: the Skynet system was originally developed through the remaining chips and bodies of t-800). The headquarters has held a meeting overnight, and handed over these things to the R & D department chaired by Moss Dyson, obviously excluding Vincent-his mood can be imagined, which also indirectly became Fang Senyan The main reason why I didn't get any good looks in the first place.
After Vincent took the chip, the more he looked at it, the more he invested, and his eyes showed a fanatic color, and he murmured in his mouth:
"This kind of linear conduction ... how could there be a carbon-based structure? The electronic dots laid out above are afraid that there will be more than one hundred thousand! Damn, what do my eyes see? Wireless functional base point, how is this possible , Raphael, go and turn on the electric shock module, Raphael, Ra ... "
At this time, Fang Senyan also received a reminder of the Nightmare Mark.
You successfully brought Vincent into contact with the main CPU chip (incomplete)
Spur task: contact (complete)
You can choose the following options to get rewards:
a: Give the chip to Vincent, and get a certain (10 ~ 25) favorability and a small amount of reward. The floating degree of favorability is directly related to the charm value of the contractor.
b: Sell the chip to Vincent to reduce its favorability to you (30 ~ 50) points, and moderate compensation, the floating degree of favorability is directly related to the charm value of the contractor.
Vincent, immersed in his thoughts, suddenly awakened, because Fang Senyan simply took the chip back from his palm, and said with a hateful sincere smile:
"Now, Mr. Vincent should have time to discuss the price problem with me, right?"
Vincent hasn't reacted for a while, and stunned:
"what? what price?"
Fang Senyan smiled and said:
"The price of transferring this chip to you."
Vincent suddenly looked ugly, lowered his voice and stared at Fang Senyan:
"How much do you want? One thousand dollars, two thousand dollars? Ten thousand dollars, lose t! Don't go too far, I just call, and the cute policeman will rush in and grab you greedy guy Of! "
"But the police won't give you the chips too!" Fang Senyan smiled on his face, but his eyes were as sharp as a pin! Although he didn't know Vincent's situation at this time, he pointed out the key point at a glance.
"Also, Mr. Vincent, please note that I have confirmed the authenticity and value of this thing from you now, so you are not my only potential consumer customer. If you offer a price tag Can't make me satisfied, then I think maybe other engineers of the company will give a generous bid. "
Vincent was so angry that he stood and walked back and forth like a desperate beast trapped in a cage. He grumbled reluctantly in his mouth, presumably a slang from his hometown, and then took all The banknotes were all taken out, and a gold-framed pocket watch that looked very old was put on the outside, with the words 1944 on the case.
"You greedy devil! Take it, damn, this watch is one of the relics left by my father, and then you can hand over that magical chip in front of me as quickly as possible Disappear, roll as far as you can! Let me never see your greedy face! "
Fang Senyan also got the information of these two props in an instant:

Explanation: My lifelong wish was to rush to Salt Lake City to be a pious monk ~ monster ~ teacher, but unfortunately this wish seems to be fulfilled by my son.
Note: Fang Senyan ’s dollars spent in this world are the same as ordinary currencies, and there will be no special instructions for the nightmare imprint. Similarly, ordinary pocket watches are also the same, and they cannot be brought out of this world.
Looking at these two things, Fang Senyan was not in a hurry to reach for it, but held the chip, a mysterious smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and shook his head slightly. There was a fierce light in Vincent's eyes, and he said in a threatening tone:
"Young people, people who are too greedy will be found by Satan."
Fang Senyan sighed. At this moment, he deeply understood the joy that profiteers squeezed out the interests of others at the negotiating table bit by bit:
"Dear Mr. Vincent, please do n’t get me wrong, I just want to ask you another question."
Vincent was staring at Fang Senyan ’s left hand holding the chip, and the rosacea and bald heads were all radiated with bright oil stains, and snarled with a hard roar:
"What else do you want to do!"
Fang Senyan suddenly spread the palm of his hand, and two identical chips appeared in his palm! This made Vincent's eyes suddenly wide like a dead fish, and then sluggish, it can be imagined that Vincent's heart was beating violently at this time, pumping blood violently into the cerebral blood vessels.
"I just want to ask, if two chips are sold to you together, what price can I sell?"
