The command center suddenly became tense and busy.
However, at this moment, even William did not expect that the door of the command center was pushed open, and an uninvited guest appeared in the dispatch room with three or four security personnel in black suits.
Everything about Fantasy Zero is the top secret of Kyle Technology. If you want to get in here, you need to go through layers of reviews. The only way to bring someone here so leisurely is that the other party has extremely high authority within Kyle Technology.
This is indeed the case.
"Director Ellen...?" Manager William saw the short man with a big belly and short brown hair across from him. His face remained unchanged, but his heart sank.
"It's okay, I just came over to take a look. Thank you for your hard work, Manager William. Is there any new progress on Fantasy Zero?"
Director Ellen waved her hand in a pretentious manner and asked chattingly as if she was inspecting the work.
Normally, William would have just smiled and dealt with it, but today, the expression on William's face finally couldn't help it, and he looked a little unnatural.
Director Ellen just smiled at this, and then ignored the silent Manager William and quickly came to the command room. On the big screen, the previous red-level confidential information of the 39-A team was displayed.
"What are you doing? Director William and I have worked so hard to get the information for the company. Why are you still waiting for it? Why don't you quickly record it!"
Under Director Ellen's scolding, the three or four men in black he brought with him immediately went to the researchers in the command center and asked for permission.
The researcher was immediately at a loss. He looked at Director William and then at Director Ellen. He didn't know what to do. After all, once the authority is handed over, others will also obtain this detailed information, and the credit will be huge. It's not theirs alone.
Obviously, it was no coincidence that Director Ellen appeared here at this time. He didn't even act, but he came to tell them clearly that he was here to grab the credit.
"Director Ellen is an important guide to our plan. His words are mine. Let's get started." William took a few deep breaths and chose to give up, letting Ellen's people take over the place and extract the data.
Ellen glanced at William's clenched fists, but still had a smile on his face, and patted William's shoulder with appreciation.
"I will report this important information to the board of directors later. William, I think you are very smart, very valuable and have potential. When the time comes, you can join the board of directors with me."
"Thank you for the promotion to Director Ellen."
William pretended to be grateful, but in reality, deep in his eyes, there was a hint of gloom towards Director Ellen.
The board of directors of Kyle Technology symbolizes the highest power of the company. Being brought to such a meeting, even just to show your face, is definitely an honor. But what makes William angry now is that he can obviously get more, even more Or maybe, he was given one of the seats on the board of directors, but now it's all gone. It's conceivable that Ellen will definitely take away more than half of the entire credit.
And what can he do? There was no way, he was just a department manager, Director Ellen was much higher than him, and William had no right to choose at all.
"By the way William, I just saw a large-amount grant you applied for in the company's financial system. What are you going to do?"
"Team 39-A sacrificed their lives in exchange for information. This is their pension and reward for their heroic sacrifice." William replied expressionlessly.
Upon hearing William's words, Director Ellen shook his head. He leaned close to William's ear and whispered:
"William, it seems you are still not smart enough about some things. The biggest contributors to this intelligence are us, not the dead Team 39. They just obeyed our exquisite command and went to get the intelligence. Even It is because of their improper operations and mistakes that the current information is so unclear."
In just a few words, Director Ellen took credit for Team 39-A's work, and even gave the team the credit for having incomplete intelligence, thus making their image even more perfect.
"Director Ellen, this is not good." William remained expressionless.
"Let me tell you the truth, William, the company's board of directors has long had objections to your expenditure on the pension and reward mechanism on the Explorer. Your behavior will not only lead to a waste of a large amount of company funds, but also It has produced very negative social effects.”
As Director Ellen spoke, he handed a piece of news to William. On it were the family members of many explorers who died for the company in Dream Zero, complaining bitterly about the illegal and secret experiments being carried out in Kyle Technology. Otherwise, why would there be so many casualties?
"William, the company's public relations department has already protested seriously."
"There is no way. The company wants to explore the Zero Dream, and sacrifices are inevitable." William replied expressionlessly.
"No, no, no, William, you know, there are some things, as long as you don't count them, it means they don't exist. Do you understand? Once you issue the pension, it is equivalent to admitting to the outside world that the deaths of these employees were caused by our Kyle Technology , and if we directly fire those dead employees, there will be no leverage. At that time, the relevant departments of the company will be able to have more freedom. You have to believe in the strength of our public relations. Those family members... Haha, they can't make a sound. of."
William looked at the fat smile on Director Ellen's face. In this era of advanced prosthetic technology, it takes skill to become a fat man.
He finally asked expressionlessly: "But in this case, many explorers today will protest or even go on strike."
"Strike? Protest? Haha, so William, you are too young. Those employees have already signed a contract with us and have not completed the agreed targets. Huge fines and compensation will be waiting for them. William, you have to trust the company's legal affairs After the department and those explorers knew the price of breach of contract, believe me, they would not dare to do anything."
"Due to the changes in Longguo, the company's current situation is very critical. At this time, as the company's senior leaders, we must know how to share the company's worries and save expenses."
Director Ellen patted William on the shoulder sincerely.
"From now on, just do as I say. There will be a press conference in three days. Public opinion must be controlled at this time. No information about the death or injury of any employees should be revealed. We will wait until our "Witch Brand" is released. Later, hum, the company's market value will definitely pick up and even surpass before. William, I still have extra stock shares that I haven't moved. If you need it, you can contact me and I will allocate you a purchase quota. "
"Thank you Director Ellen, I will consider it."
"Follow me and work hard William. In Kyle Technology, people without background can't climb very far. Trust me, I won't treat you badly."
Just after Director Ellen left with his people, the researcher who was the first to discover the information left behind by Team 39-A came to the side of Manager William with trembling steps.
Any fool can see that Director William is in a very bad mood right now, but the matter is so important that he has to bite the bullet and report it fearfully:
"Director Wilhelm, I'm very sorry. I was too excited before and found that I missed a message from Team 39-A."
"Omission?"
"Yes, Team 39-A also sent a second message. The content is very short, which explains the source of the mural information. It is very possible that there is someone from other organizations in Dream Zero, who is better than our Kyle Technology Someone who also understands fantasy more deeply.”
Regarding the mysterious competitor, he actually neglected such an important matter. When the researcher thought about what happened to Famas before, his legs were so frightened that he almost knelt down in front of Manager William.
"Yes, I'm sorry Sir William, it was my negligence in my work, please."
"No, no." Manager William, who had been expressionless since Director Ellen appeared, finally showed a bit of a smile.
"You did very well."
After William murmured to himself, he stared at the information thoughtfully for a few seconds, and then, with the researchers next to him dumbfounded, he deleted the information without hesitation.
