"Master, please slow down, be careful not to fall..."
The gray-haired old housekeeper helped a man with a majestic look and gray hair slowly get off the plane. Seeing that the man's pace was a bit fast, he quickly warned him.
"Becker, you don't need to help me."
The man with a majestic expression pulled out his arm and said helplessly, "Old man, I am no longer the Paul Brown I used to be."
"Okay, sir."
Seeing this, the white-haired butler spread his hands.
Looking at the stubborn butler, the majestic man just shook his head helplessly. He was five years older than himself and had served him all his life. It was hard to blame him.
Under the plane, there were already more than a dozen bodyguards standing with their hands behind their hands. When they saw him getting off the plane, they all came up to him, blocked his face with their bodies, and then led him out of the airport.
"Sir, look over there, it's Felix Munster..."
Just as they were about to leave the plane, a group of people also poured out of the parking space next to the parking space where they were, led by a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties or fifties.
Not only that, someone on the opposite side seemed to have reminded him, so the two of them looked over almost at the same time, and their eyes completely met each other at this moment.
Looking at this familiar old enemy, Paul's eyes flashed with gloom, and then he burst out laughing.
"Hahahaha! Felix, I didn't expect to meet you here?"
"I'm really surprised, Paul. I didn't expect you to come to Namibia in person!"
The two walked in quickly and hugged each other passionately.
"I haven't seen you for four or five years. I heard that you gave all your work to your son before. Are you coming to Namibia for vacation now?"
Paul said enthusiastically, “Namibia is indeed a great place for vacation!”
"Isn't it the same for you? I heard that your son Sharon had a major operation two years ago and even two kidneys were replaced. Is it because of this that you are forced to come out again?"
The other party was also hiding something, and upon hearing these words, Paul's face suddenly darkened.
The reason why he said this to the other party was because the man in front of him was the founder of the Munster Group. However, four or five years ago, the old man in front of him resigned from the company's management due to Alzheimer's disease, leaving him His son Adrian runs the board.
Originally, one could only live for a few years with this disease, but he didn't expect that the other party would take the path of Blackwatch Company. Not only did he cure Alzheimer's disease, he also withstood the aging reversal treatment and became like himself. The appearance of a young man in his forties or fifties really made Paul angry.
The reason why the other party said this about himself was because he had attacked the chairman of Blackwatch Company before, but not only did he fail to do anything to the other party, but the other party cut off his son's two kidneys. This incident has become a scandal in the chaebol circle. A joke in.
"God bless me, but my son not only received a new kidney, he also kept six mistresses and has given birth to eight children so far."
Paul smiled and said, "I wonder how your son Adrian is doing?"
"My son is not as courageous as your son to have his kidney replaced, and the heirs of our family are also very good. They should not need to keep giving birth to litters like pigs."
Felix also sneered back.
The exchange between the two suddenly broke down unhappily.
When Paul got into his car, he was breathing heavily. If he hadn't undergone aging reversal treatment, he might have suffered from high blood pressure just now.
"Master, calm down and take care of yourself."
The old housekeeper on the side kept comforting him.
"Humph, he himself is not the same, surrendering to the Blackwatch Company?"
Paul was indignant and said quickly, "Let the driver drive faster. We must arrive at the biological research center before the other party and see Chen Chen."
"yes."
The old housekeeper nodded.
Immediately, the whole car started quickly and drove out of the airport along the VIP aisle.
Half an hour later, the vehicle drove into the Biological Research Center of Life Science City and stopped at the bottom of a diamond-shaped high-rise building.
This high-rise building is extremely tall, almost one-third higher than other high-rise buildings in the entire Life Sciences City. It can be seen as far away as Walvis Bay International Airport, and here is the new landmark building of Life Sciences City - Blackwatch. The company's African headquarters building.
This building is 230 meters high, with a total construction area of 150,000 square meters, and the main building has 62 floors.
"Already arrived, sir."
As the vehicle stopped in front of the building, the housekeeper immediately said, "Sir, although the bodyguards can't follow you, it should be allowed for me to go up with you, right?"
"No, I'll go up alone."
Paul pondered for a moment, then waved his hand, then got out of the car alone and walked into the headquarters building.
This was Paul's first visit to the newly built headquarters building. Before the building was built, he always went to the old office building of the Biological Research Center to meet Chen Chen.
Strictly speaking, the interior decoration of the building is not luxurious. It even has a simple and futuristic flavor. The floor is huge and looks like it is paved with white glazed glass. It can almost reflect everyone's shadow, while the walls are equally large. It is composed of white and green-style wall paint, and outside the wall paint, there is even a layer of glass decoration, giving people an extremely clean and transparent feeling of comfort.
Paul understands that at their level, luxurious decoration styles can no longer satisfy them. Instead, they prefer a simple but not simple feeling, and the huge hall decoration in front of them reveals an extremely simple future. style.
Paul just glanced at these scenery and took in them all. Then he didn't stay too much and went directly to the front desk of the hall.
The front counter of the hall is a green glass counter that is integrated into the entire hall, and behind the counter is a girl from Central China with a somewhat dull expression. The girl's eyes followed Paul's movement, and Paul suddenly felt a little strange. , he looked at the other party carefully without any hesitation.
Different from ordinary people, the eyes of the girl in front of him had an inexplicable hollowness, as if they were not like real people. Not only that, the corners of the other person's mouth were slightly raised, seemingly smiling, but if he looked carefully, it made Paul feel a little creepy.
Because of this smile, the more he looked at it, the more fake it became.
As Paul continued to walk in, he saw the other person's whole face more and more clearly. It had to be said that the girl in the reception uniform had almost no flaws in her appearance. She was so beautiful that she had no flaw in her skin. , but the more this happened, the more it gave Paul a creepy feeling.
When Paul walked completely to the counter, the girl in front of him finally spoke, "Dear sir, hello, I am the android receptionist No. A0003. Do you need my service in any way?"
In this voice, Paul actually heard a hint of electronic music...
etc!
Suddenly, Paul's eyes suddenly widened. He stared at the service girl in front of him in disbelief, as if he wanted to see through her completely, "What did you just say? Who are you?"
"I am the android receptionist No. A0003. Do you need my service in any way?"
The girl in front of me repeated mechanically.
"Androids?"
Paul suddenly took a breath of air. He raised his arm in disbelief and slowly touched the girl across the counter. It wasn't until he completely touched her cheek and felt the cold touch that was not like human skin that he was truly sure.
No wonder the girl in front of me always seems to feel like something is wrong, she is not a real person!
"my God… "
At this moment, Paul felt as if there were a hundred thousand grass and mud horses galloping past in his heart. Bionic humans? He had only seen this scene in a movie - it was more than forty years ago, when he was in his prime, he took his mistress to the cinema to watch the movie called "Alien"...
Shaking his head in admiration, Paul immediately looked around. Isn't there a real receptionist here
"Is there anything you need my service for?"
Seeing that Paul didn't answer, the android girl in front of him asked again.
"Um?"
Paul's attention was finally drawn to this issue, and at this moment, he seemed to have thought of something.
Just before the android in front of him was about to continue asking questions, he finally said tentatively, "I want... I have an appointment with Chen Chen. I'm going to see him now. Can you confirm it for me?"
As Paul finished speaking, he stared at the android in front of him.
One second, two seconds, three seconds...
Three seconds passed, and the android in front of him seemed to be stunned, without any reaction or movement at all, not even blinking.
Seeing this, Paul could only shake his head, "Sure enough, how could Blackwatch Company create such advanced bionics..."
"Mr. Chairman has been informed that the other party agrees to your visit. Please go to the top floor of the 62nd floor."
Before he finished speaking, the android in front of him spoke again.
Until then, Paul finally raised his head suddenly and looked at the other party in disbelief.
The android in front of me actually understood my request!
If this company is not so idle that it scares visitors with a robot controlled by someone behind the back, then wouldn't it mean that Blackwatch Company already has a machine that can communicate smoothly with humans and 90% of the Bionic human technology with more than five degrees of fidelity
When the world's best robotics and AI technologies are still at the level of the mechanical dog BigDog, has this amazing company already reached this point
Although Paul is over eighty years old, he is a product of elite education. Even though he is very old, his ability to accept new things is far superior to that of some forty-five-year-old middle-aged people. It is this ability that makes him Ability to maintain one's own family for a long time.
In addition, now that he has received aging reversal treatment, his mentality has become more positive and youthful. Therefore, he deeply understands what this ordinary and even scary bionic man in front of him has to the entire world. meaning…
"Please go to the 62nd floor."
Just when Paul was shocked in his heart, the other party urged him again.
"well!"
Paul finally recovered. He took one last deep look at the android, then turned and walked towards the elevator.
Because the floor was too high, a total of five elevators were prepared in the whole building, each with a huge capacity of carrying twenty people. At this time, Paul randomly selected an elevator and stood directly in it.
Until he walked into the elevator, Paul actually saw the android staring at him, with that stiff smile still hanging on the corner of its mouth...
"Oh shit… "
Paul frowned, and then the elevator door closed, completely blocking his sight.
Shaking his head and putting the weird android out of his mind, Paul pressed the button on the 62nd floor. Suddenly, he felt a surge of gravity on his body. It was the overweight phenomenon caused by the rapid rise of the elevator, but this feeling was very strange. It will disappear completely soon.
On the instrument panel, Paul could see that the elevator was moving extremely fast, almost jumping from floor to floor in two seconds. In just two minutes, he reached the top floor.
"Ding, the 62nd floor has arrived."
A beep came from the elevator, and then the elevator door slowly opened, revealing the space behind the elevator door.
After seeing the layout of the entire 62nd floor, Paul took a deep breath.
I saw that the entire 62nd floor was empty. There were no corridors and no so-called offices. What was there was just a hall as huge as the first floor!
However, the decoration here is more simple. Both the floor and the ceiling are paved with blue-gray PVC material. On the outer layer of the PVC material, there is a layer of highly transparent glass covering it, as if all the materials are made of crystal. Just as smooth and slippery.
All supports have been removed from the entire 62nd floor of the building, turning it into a huge office. And around this oversized office, there are not walls, but floor-to-ceiling windows that cover the entire wall!
At a sudden glance, Paul even had the illusion of being high in the sky.
When the entire space becomes empty, the only furnishings are extremely conspicuous. The only furnishings on the 62nd floor are a huge silver-gray metal desk opposite the elevator room and near the floor-to-ceiling windows. .
At this time, behind this desk, a man was sitting on a leather chair, with his back to Paul, seeming to be looking at the scenery in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows.
After seeing this man, even though he was just a figure from behind, Paul still bowed quickly. He lowered his head slightly and whispered at the same time, "I have met my master, Your Excellency Chen Chen..."
"Paul, you're here."
Until then, the man slowly turned around, revealing a young but deep face, "Is there anything important for you to come to see me in person?"
"Yes, there is something very important that you must be interested in knowing."
Paul bowed his body and said solemnly, "The North American Congress has received the news. Various consortiums in God's Forbidden City have worked hard to persuade the district council. They have tried their best to reject your acquisition of Osmond Biological Company. the behavior of."
