Even the forces behind Kay Lee can’t stand against this now. It’s not a question of courage, it’s the fact that the Blackfield Group would do this, even at their own loss. They don’t rely on personal connections or back channels, but the hard power they wield forces others to help them suppress Kay Lee.
This is the nature of the industry, one stage leading into another. WY wanting Kay Lee as their brand ambassador would only bring them trouble. WY isn’t a small company, and they do have their own media portal, but if the Blackfield Group applies pressure, VVY will have to capitulate.
“The Blackfield Group has some rather deep connections within the electric state bureau and above,” Yuri Johnson added with a bitter smile when he saw Finn Lewis unmoving.
Finn raised an eyebrow at this. For a gaming company, the department that audits their operations, like IVY’s top brass, is quite intimidating. Flame Nation is a society based on relationships, a habit that has formed over thousands of years and isn’t easily changed.
But Finn’s only reaction was a raised eyebrow, then he little but laughed and said to Yuri Johnson, “Mr. Johnson, if I told you that when I bought WY, my aim was to make Kay Lee a brand ambassador to break her out of her deadlock, would you believe me?”
Believe it? Yuri Johnson didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. How could he believe a suddenly outrageous statement? But Finn’s words did unabashedly show his ambition for Kay Lee.
Helping someone in dire straits makes a deeper impression than enhancing their success. And with this, Finn certainly made his decision clear to Yuri Johnson. He was resolved.
“But Director Lewis, are you ready to fight the Blackfield Group?” Yuri Johnson couldn’t help asking.
“Mr. Johnson, relax, when the enemy arrives, I’ll block them; when water comes, I’ll cover it.” Finn patted Yuri Johnson’s shoulder. Surprised, Yuri Johnson glanced at Finn’s hand and wondered if they had gotten their ages backward, leaving Yuri Johnson speechless.
“As you command, Master!” Charlotte Sommer nodded and left immediately. Finn didn’t need to worry about the robots’ identities; identities had been prepared for them when they had been manufactured. Two T800s also left with Charlotte Sommer.
The T2500 was different from the T800. Besides having a skeleton made of a special alloy, all its other ‘muscles’ were almost completely identical to a human’s. You would feel no difference unless it was being dissected. They were just as susceptible to injury as humans.
The T800 was very different from the T800 in the movies. Its skin was like a human’s but was tough enough to resist a sniper rifle with a 12.7mm caliber. It also has a strong ability to recover after an attack.
However, because the most advanced processors were very cheap, the difference in exchange points between the T2500 and T800 was so significant. After finishing up with his mom, only Jay Sommer was left. Finn thought about it and said, “Go to Celeston City now, set up a company, prepare ten Photon-model I computers and get ready to operate. All the paperwork must be legitimate, and you should rent some ordinary servers for concealment.” “Yes, Master,” Jay Sommer agreed and left.
After everyone had left the room, Finn went back to ponder upon the T-800 purchase. Each T-800 required 5,000 exchange points, and Finn only had 32,000 left. However, he still had other uses for these points. He was considering buying two more T-800s as Kay Lee’s bodyguards, but he realized that the T-800s weren’t suited for this role.
Because their logic processors weren’t enough. If Finn ordered them to protect Kay Lee, they’d immediately pounce on any potential threat to her, which would expose their identity quickly.
Unless Finn equipped them with the T2500 model to command them, an option which required 50,000 exchange points, a burden for Finn. It didn’t have great combat capabilities, and the T2000, despite being more powerful than both T800 and T2500, cost a staggering 200,000 exchange points. He couldn’t afford that.
After reviewing for a while, Finn decided to shut the exchange platform. It seemed that having more points let him have fewer choices. He decided not to be hasty about exchanging, as Kay Lee was not in danger for now. Finn should prioritize self-development. After taking a look at Bryski Miller’s home, Finn realized his power was minuscule.
Zero was indeed great, but it couldn’t be deployed without exposing itself. At least until Finn had the ability to protect himself, revealing Zero would be suicidal.
Thinking about it, Finn was filled with resentment about his previous lottery draw. He wished he had drawn the ultra-rare “Thunder God” class universe battle cruiser. If he had that, he wouldn’t need to fear anyone!
But Finn could only dream. He figured it was more practical to focus on how he can bring Kay Lee into his camp.
Once he took care of these matters, Finn waited for Yuri Johnson and Kay Lee’s negotiations. Once the deal was concluded, Finn would be ready to watch Bryski Miller’s next move.
Yuri Johnson met Kay Lee and her assistant in the company’s meeting room. Seeing the woman who had come alone, Yuri Johnson couldn’t help but feel sympathy. It was tough for an exceptionally beautiful woman, especially when her background wasn’t strong.
“Miss Kay Lee, do you have any objections to the contract? If you have any objections, you can consult a lawyer,” Yuri Johnson said with a smile. He could tell that Kay Lee was exhausted; her weariness showed on her face.
“No, no, Mr. Johnson, I have no objections to the endorsement. But… before I sign the contract, I have a question. Could you answer it?” Kay Lee bit her pale lips and looked at Yuri Johnson earnestly as she asked her question..
