"'Jinghua' Office holds a science and technology exhibition and invites you to participate. This is the invitation letter..."
The holographic image of Cerberus senior agent Miranda appeared in the "Illusive Man"'s room. She held an invitation in her hand and looked a little embarrassed. As a senior executive of Cerberus, she certainly knows that all the recent public opinions and the "Mu Xing Act" against Musing are all caused by Cerberus behind the scenes. Of course, Mu Xing's counterattack was equally sharp. The new "key credit" review of the "Patent Sharing Rights Association" has hit all the companies under the name of Cerberus and all companies that have donated money to support Cerberus and the Earth-only Party, and not even a half has been spared!
At this point, it can be said that killing one thousand enemies and losing ten thousand to oneself - Mu Xing may suffer a loss of one billion star yuan per year due to the "Mu Xing Act". But her counterattack was ten times more lethal! Enterprises related to Cerberus and the Earth-only Party will have to bear the cost of losing dozens or tens of billions of stars every year! Some companies simply have no choice but to close down... Of course, most of this money will be enjoyed by the patent holders of the "Patent Sharing Equity Association", and only part of it will go to Mu Xing's pocket.
Mu Xing still suffered a small loss overall, but to Cerberus, it was almost a non-fatal comprehensive blow... and the end was disastrous!
Moreover, after the "Patent Sharing Rights Association" lowered Starlink's credit rating, various patent banks in the galaxy also followed suit. They will not treat them differently like the "Patent Sharing Rights Association". The consequence of the "joint attack" on the entire Starlink enterprise is that the only party has become a street rat. It almost became a situation where everyone was shouting and beating! The reputation that the Earth Party had just soared due to "saving the Citadel" fell to the bottom again.
At this time, "Jinghua" actually invited "Phantom Man" by name to participate in some technology exhibition. This is like a slap in the face. But according to Mu Xing's terrifying research and development capabilities, if she wants to hold a science and technology exhibition, she will probably display the most cutting-edge and high-end technologies. Who dares to neglect? ! It's not okay if Cerberus doesn't go. You must know that if Mu Xing was still in Star Alliance at this time, no one would dare to target her.
Why? Because she has the ability to develop new technologies and disrupt an industry, who can take her appearance in stride!
"Let... Wells go instead of me." The Illusive Man originally wanted Miranda to go. After all, Miranda was once friends with Mu Xing. But looking at Miranda's expression, she would definitely refuse him face to face. The "Illusive Man" could only change his mind and find another senior agent.
"Okay." Miranda put away the invitation. However, she did not close the communication directly, but pursed her lips. Asked what she had always doubted. "Why do you do this?"
It was a confusing question, but both of them knew what they were talking about - why did Cerberus target Mu Xing? Why target Lu Yuan and the forces behind him?
If a year ago, arbitrarily intervening in the Citadel War (Lu Yuan had shared intelligence with Cerberus in advance, Cerberus could seize the opportunity so accurately) was Cerberus's internal affairs. Then in the subsequent division of interests Negotiations, photo leaks, obstruction of promotions in the military, and promotion of the "Mu Xing Act". Opposition to Dawn's side at every turn cannot be explained simply by internal affairs.
When former collaborators suddenly turn against each other, there is always a need for a justifiable reason. What's more, Miranda has a very favorable impression of the Mu Xing siblings... She doesn't know where her sister is from, otherwise it would be hard to tell for her as a strong girl...
"Profit, just because of profit." The phantom man was not surprised by her question. He pointed out the problem directly without making any big arguments. "Our business needs money. But he takes 1.5 billion star dollars from Cerberus every year - this is absolutely unacceptable to Cerberus!"
Miranda Rosen had nothing to say and could only leave and end the communication. But the Illusive Man, who was sitting alone in the large room, picked up his cigarette again and fell into deep thought again.
He knows the horror of Dawn's power better than Miranda - the initial shares of the "Patent Sharing Equity Association" were given to Musing by Cerberus. It's just an addition to Cerberus's investment in Musing Labs. At that time, although the patent bank had already demonstrated its terrifying power, the "Patent Sharing Equity Association" was just a small organization, and even the "Phantom Man" did not take that little share seriously at first.
Since Mu Xing requested that the share be included in the negotiation, he simply gave it to Mu Xing to enhance the goodwill between the two parties.
More than ten years later. The "Patent Sharing Rights Association" grew into a giant patent bank, and Mu Xing became the chairman of this patent bank! Cerberus has to pay tens of billions of losses every year. Only then did I realize this... The strength of Dawn's power lies precisely in her mystery! Her strength is always hidden deep in the mist, and every time she shows her fangs, it makes her enemies feel heartbroken!
So now that we know this, why does the "Illusive Man" still challenge it at all costs? no one knows.
The shadow of the "Illusive Man" is clearly visible on the glass porthole opposite.
In the mirror, his eyes suddenly turned blue, mechanical and indifferent - just like when he was controlled by "enlightenment"...
*****
Novilia Science and Technology Expo Center, the "Dream Age" science and technology exhibition is being held.
Perfect wireless power transmission technology, in the entire clean exhibition hall, countless devices are running, but not a single transmission line can be seen; the battleship engine completely abandons the existing energy system and directly uses the negative energy that exists in every corner of the world. Energy (from Reaper technology; magical image transmission material (from Mona and human body teleportation technology) (this is simply magic "teleportation"); without going through the buoy network, it can carry out live broadcasts synchronized throughout the galaxy (in the form of Dawn) Quantum entanglement communication technology used as a transit station...
The technologies displayed one after another almost made the whole world speechless!
Countless scientists who did not get the invitation letter still rushed to Novilia by spaceship, just wanting to get closer to these technologies - because this is the technology that will determine the future world for a hundred years! Unfortunately, they didn't know that the next two years would be a massive invasion by the Reapers. The entire galaxy will be plunged into all-out war! Even if the galactic civilization wins in the end, they will be isolated from each other and enter a heavy and long period of reconstruction - Dawn will put these technologies on display. But I never thought about actually promoting it.
The first day of the exhibition excludes the general public and is only open to invited dignitaries from various countries. Therefore, although the flow of people in the exhibition center is small, the people coming and going are all technological elites and dignitaries of various races.
When Wells, a senior agent from Cerberus, entered holding an invitation, this was what he saw. In the hall, large-format banners were hung everywhere, and all that could be heard were electronic explanations. It seems to be no different from an ordinary technology exhibition. But since this exhibition is organized by Mu Xing, everyone will think that this is a special exhibition - "Dream Age" will live up to its name.
Wells looked around the venue. Unsurprisingly...except for the female manager of "Jinghua", he could not see anyone related to the Dawn force, including Mu Xing, the protagonist of the science and technology exhibition. In fact, what Wells wanted to see most was Lu Yuan - after all, they still had a friendship when they were on Star Trek Rescue. At least Lu Yuan robbed his ship...
Since they are not here. He could only bite the bullet and walk towards the female manager of "Jinghua". This time Wells not only came to visit, but also shouldered the important task of "submitting" to the Dawn forces... Otherwise, if they continue to be attacked like this, the Earth Party and Cerberus forces may be disbanded.
When he walked in, he happened to see a middle-aged Salarian man in front of the female manager, nodding and bending to please... Wellesden suddenly felt his heart tightening. Because he recognized the identity of the Salarian man at a glance—the director of the Citadel Patent Office! Cerberus was responsible for allowing the "Star Moon Act" to be ignored by the Citadel Council. But now he is acting like a dog, wagging his tail in front of the female manager "Jinghua".
"I've said before, 'Jinghua' will not consider patenting these technologies in the short term!" A person approached. Wells heard the female manager spitting at the patent director angrily. "You allowed the Star Alliance to pass the 'Mu Xing Act', which makes me unable to see the patent office's careful protection of patents! We are very doubtful about the necessity of registering patents!"
"That was our negligence in our work. For that matter, I have fired all the people in the Star Alliance Division!" The Salarian said with dignity and sincerity, "We accept the accusations from Jinghua Office and are willing to Therefore, we will bear the liability for compensation. However, registering a patent is to protect the interests of developers. Look... would you like to communicate with Chairman Mu again..."
There is no way, this guy who used to be aloof and superior. Now I have to compromise.
The three major races of the Citadel...now the four major races, faced the technology shown by Mu Xing. My eyes are all red! This is completely the rhythm of single-handedly crushing the entire galaxy! Once these technologies are industrialized, I am afraid that half of the industries in the galaxy will be reorganized! How big of an event is this? ! How dare he, a small director, take this responsibility? ! Nowadays, the major races are all having crazy meetings, but they have no clue about the technology displayed at the exhibition - it's not that they can't research it, but they don't even have a research direction!
However, Mu Xing has neither published relevant papers nor registered any patents on these technologies. She just showed it directly, just like magic - even if those people had personally tested it - teleporting themselves from this planet to another planet, they still couldn't believe that this was true!
Therefore, he has now been given a fatal order to register these technologies with the Patent Office! As long as a patent is registered, even if it does not involve the core part of the technology, some technical details must be published - and everyone can find some research ideas... It is better than the current situation where all researchers are severely beaten.
"Look...if you don't register a patent, how can you protect your rights and interests through law? If nothing else, what if someone else registers the patent first while you are hesitating? Even if you don't register the same patent, but If peripheral patents are registered, such as appearance, manufacturing process, ideas... By then, Chairman Mu will not want to bear the name of a plagiarist." Although the Salary Patent Director was still smiling, his tone was already Bring a touch of menace.
If Mu Xing does not compromise, he does have a way to get others to register these patents, and the lawsuit will cost billions.
"Haha~" The female manager Jinghua sneered. As Mu Xing expected, these people are so shameless! Fortunately, Zhao Min had already told her the strategy before coming.
"You don't have to worry about it anymore. Jinghua can't stop anyone who wants to register." The female manager looked at the Salarian people with dagger-like eyes, "Because no one can develop these technologies even if you give them 30 years! Rushing to register patents will only delay time longer... As for rushing to register appearance patents? Haha~" She smiled contemptuously, "As long as such a patent is still valid, Jinghua will never publish the corresponding technology. Come out! That's our answer!
Please, I have new guests..."
The earth-colored Patent Director staggered away, and it was Wells' turn to walk up with a wry smile. He has already seen that today's female manager Jinghua is a hedgehog, she just wants to show her tough stance and don't try to please anyone! But he... still had to bite the bullet and say it.
"I'm here to apologize!" Wells put his stance very low at the beginning and admitted his mistake directly. "In the past, there was a problem within Cerberus. No matter what you and the forces you represent, we are responsible for it. We only hope that we can talk about the review of the 'Patent Sharing Rights Association' and give those companies a A way to survive..."
"If an apology is useful, why do you need our lawyers!" The female manager interrupted him unceremoniously, "Cerberus has at least taught Jinghua one thing!... Faced with dozens of billions of stars, When it comes to profit, nothing else matters! I called Sebirus’ people here today just to show you...what you missed! By the way, I want to inform you that we really have nothing to talk about!"
After finishing speaking, the female manager sneered, turned around and left with disdain.
Wells stood there, smiling bitterly.
Along the way, even if he just took a quick look, he understood what Cerberus "missed" - Cerberus missed the opportunity to cooperate with the most awesome scientists in the world, and also missed the opportunity. This is an opportunity for your organization to make rapid progress and grow stronger! There is no chance of a second opportunity like this!
"But Chairman Mu Xing is still from Earth!" He suddenly shouted loudly to the back of the female manager, "Doesn't she care at all about the planet she was born on?!" This accusation was very serious.
"Who said these technologies belong to Mu Xing?" the female manager asked strangely, and then left without looking back.
"Doesn't belong to Mu Xing? There's such a big 'Jupiter Nano' written on the door!" Wells yelled angrily, but no one paid him any attention. Wells rushed out of the door angrily and came to the big sign.
But after he took a closer look, he was immediately stunned - it turned out that it was really not "Jupiter Nano"!
I saw the four characters "Shu Xing Nano" written on the sign, which smelled like a copycat... (To be continued)
