Chapter 412 The enterprise's generosity! (Thanks to "NightChicK3n" for the Silver Alliance!)

  The airspace in the east of Qingquan City.

  Twelve heavy-duty transport planes lined up like wild birds in the air, and appeared at the end of the clouds.

  Inside the semi-curved cabin.

  Two bionics wearing silver cloaks stood by the front window, staring intently at the dead city not far away.

   Same as Ideal City.

   There are also many tall buildings and buildings, even worse than that, and you can't see the edge of the city as far as you can see.

   However, the entire city has been deserted.

  Whether it is the city center swallowed by the yellow-green spore cloud or the empty concrete wreckage, they are undoubtedly dead.

  Only a corner of the northern suburbs, there are still traces of fireworks.

  The survivors built new homes there, built houses with three or five floors, transported materials with ancient trains, and machines driven by electricity operated in the fields, and tall chimneys slowly drifted black mist.

  The fire of civilization has been preserved, and it seems that there are signs of recovery, but the breathing that is like gossamer is still weak, like a candle flickering in a storm...

   "That's Qingquan City." The relatively tall bionic man said slowly as he stared at Dawn City with colorless pupils.

Its name is "Frost" and its model is A-130. It is redesigned from the pre-war civilian P-100 series. Its application scenarios are raids, security, rescue, monitoring and cleaning, etc. At the same time, the AI ​​​​algorithm is compatible with P-100 Some features of the series.

  As the proud work of the Bionics Design Department of Kangmao Group, its energy supply device is a nuclear battery storing 200g of helium III and a chemical battery storing 6kg of metal hydrogen.

  As a hybrid bionic human, its electrical energy is usually provided by the latter, and it will switch to the former when the energy of the latter is exhausted.

  The name of the bionic person standing next to it at the moment is "eclipse", the model is A-110, and its main application scenario is comprehensive information processing.

  In addition, unlike Frost, which can carry multiple weapons, its abilities are more reflected outside the battlefield. For example, coordinating conventional bionic troops to fight collectively, such as coordinating multiple drones to form an attack fleet, and so on.

   "The alliance answered our landing request, and they will lend us the airport in the northern suburbs... We will land in 5 minutes and 12 seconds." The pupils of the eclipse flickered slightly, and said softly.

   Frost nodded.

   Its pupils have no color, but it seems to be more intelligent than the colleague next to it equipped with a more complex processor.

  Looking at the weak village, it raised its chin slightly, and there was a hint of imperceptible meaning in the undulating electronic sound.

   "Eclipse, this is an opportunity for us."

   Solar eclipse slightly out of the way.

"What?"

   Frost continued.

   "We will use our superb technology and professionalism to eliminate customers' concerns, and prove to our customers that we are the optimal solution under all precise calculations—"

   "We will lead mankind and revive their civilization!"

  The solar eclipse paused for two seconds, I don't know if I was confused or thinking.

   Then it nodded.

"OK."

  …

  The funeral just happened to be over.

   Chu Guang, who left the cemetery, walked in front of Zhao Yongxu, the head of the militia regiment in Jushi City.

   Before Chu Guang could speak, the man with strong Kong Wu seemed to be unable to wait any longer, so he took the initiative to speak first.

   "Hello, Mr. Manager, I am here on behalf of the Lord of Boulder City, and I hope to discuss our common future with you."

  Chu Guang smiled faintly and nodded.

   "This is indeed an issue worth discussing. We value our relationship with you, but I have to say that you came at an inappropriate time... Maybe you should tell our embassy before your next visit, or make a phone call in advance."

  Zhao Yongxu narrowed his eyes slightly.

"What's the meaning?"

  Chu Guang said straightly.

   "It means, maybe I have to trouble you to wait a little longer."

   Still waiting? !

  Laughed angrily at this sentence, Zhao Yongxu said with a smile on his face.

   "How many funerals do you plan to hold, and do you finish the next one?"

   "It has nothing to do with the funeral," Chu Guang was not irritated by his words, and continued calmly with a smile, "It's just to receive friends from far away."

   "Friends from afar." Zhao Yongxu narrowed his eyes slightly.

   Chu Guang nodded and said in a relaxed tone.

   "Well, they've come all the way from the East Coast, and I can't just leave them alone."

  Hearing Chu Guang's words, almost all the envoys from Boulder City, including Zhao Yongxu, showed surprised expressions on their faces.

   Corporate people?

come here? !

  Standing next to Zhao Yongxu, an officer couldn't help protesting.

   "Those people already made an appointment?"

   Chu Guang looked at him and said.

   "Of course, they said they were coming five days ago."

  Although Chu Guang didn't expect these people to come so quickly.

   Didn’t you agree that the maximum range is only 500 kilometers?

  Why did it suddenly span 3,000 kilometers?

  Zhao Yongxu's face changed slightly, and the thoughts in his mind were spinning rapidly.

  Although he heard a long time ago that Vault 404 is a permanent partner of the enterprise, he has never heard of their cooperation outside of the trade field.

   And these people didn't arrive suddenly, but had an appointment five days ago.

  This means that these country bumpkins in the northern suburbs actually have a way to maintain stable contact with the company!

  There are nearly 3,000 kilometers across the east coast!

   It is common knowledge that long-distance communication is difficult on the wasteland. How did these people do it? !

  Thinking of this, Zhao Yongxu couldn't help being secretly vigilant, and a subtle change unconsciously occurred in the eyes looking at the blue power armor.

   If the new alliance does align with the corporation, they will have to rethink their relationship with this neighbor...

   Taking a panoramic view of the expression on his face, Chu Guang smiled faintly.

   "Are you going with me? Or go to the city hall to rest first?"

  All the messengers whispered for a while.

   Looking at Chu Guang expressionlessly, Zhao Yongxu suddenly squeezed out a stiff smile on his face.

   "Then please, introduce us a guest from the east coast..."

   The negotiations on the Heart of Iron are no longer important.

   In contrast, he was more eager to figure out one thing.

   Are those people from the east coast anyway...

  …

  Shuguang City North Airport.

   There was a lot of chattering noise on the ground.

  Looking at the plane flying from a distance, the players near the airport counted one by one, and all of them opened their eyes wide in shock.

   "Fuck! What the **** is that?!"

"airplane!!"

   "I know it's an airplane, but why is that shape so strange?!"

  The fuselage is nearly 30 meters long, the wingspan exceeds 30 meters, and the drum-shaped engine sprays a faint blue arc.

   At this time, a person suddenly shouted in a fuss.

   "Look at that wing!"

"Moved!"

   The arc light sprayed backwards turned its angle and became obliquely directed downwards to the ground, supporting the huge fuselage while slowing down and landing downwards.

  The whole set of movements is done in one go.

  A transport plane smoothly switched flight modes and landed neatly on the runway of Shuguang City North Airport.

  The swirling airflow swung away, blowing billows of dust.

  Looking straight at the large planes full of sci-fi feeling, Mosquito’s face is full of indescribable excitement and envy, and he keeps mumbling in his mouth.

   "Oh my god, it's finally a bit of a sci-fi feeling!"

  Guigui nodded seriously.

   "Understood! Vertical takeoff and landing is the direction of the future."

  The pigman brother coughed lightly.

   "It's just a game, maybe other operators just think this look is more handsome... Selective reference, don't be misled by others."

   Mosquito said with a smile.

   "That's right! What vertical take-off and landing do you want! What is the power of electric thrusters enough for? Big nozzles, big thrust, and forward-swept wings are the future!"

  Luo Yu: "..."

  Unprofessional retort: ​​"..."

  While everyone was talking, the door of the plane opened.

  A row of bionic soldiers walked out of the cabin with neat steps, forming five neat squares on the runway.

An iconic G9 "Black Swan" assault rifle is held horizontally in front of their chests. The streamlined gun body is integrated with the desert-colored camouflage armor, and scarlet light spots faintly flash in the arc-shaped eyepieces. .

   They are machines for war.

  Although the name is a bionic person, apart from being similar in shape to a human being, there is nothing resembling a human being on his body.

  Standing next to Mosquito, several of his apprentices sighed with surprise.

   "I rely on."

   "The dog's plan is crazy!"

   "Awesome!!!"

  The players whispered.

  Looking at those bionic soldiers, Chu Guang, who was standing next to the airport, was as surprised as these players were.

  Although the company said it would send reinforcements, it didn't say who the people were, let alone whether they were people.

   Zhao Yongxu, who was standing on the crowd not far away, swallowed, with disbelief written in his eyes, as well as a trace of deep fear.

   A total of five centurions made up of bionics!

   And this is just the first wave of support!

  God knows if there will be more...

  Didn't pay much attention to the expression on Zhao Yongxu's face, Chu Guang kept his eyes on the runway of the airport, looking at the twelve planes with unique shapes and the bionic soldiers lined up neatly.

  Luo Hua, who was leaning on crutches, stood beside him, with the same surprised expression on his face.

"A-30 general-purpose bionic soldier, the unit price is 270,000 Cr, a product of Kangmao Group... Before I set off from Ideal City, I saw their advertisements, but their technology was still immature at that time. It's been pretty hip. It's only been two or three years, and they've produced so much."

  The unit price is 270,000 Cr, a total of 500 units.

   Doesn't that mean the total price is more than 100 million? !

   Surprised by this huge handwriting, Chu Guang looked at Luo Hua.

   "Kangmao Group?"

  Luo Hua nodded slowly.

   "Well... Didn't I say before that the company has multiple subsidiaries?"

   Chu Guang knew it in his heart.

   "The Kangmao Group is a relatively large subsidiary?"

  Luo Hua nodded.

"It's not relatively big, it's very big. Their main business is medical equipment and bionic equipment, and most of the bionic organs with the Ideal City brand are produced by them. In addition, there are comparisons in Yunjian Province. Common android labor, most of the survivor colonies there signed the abolition of slavery, so they occasionally use androids to do farm work, dig mines, and even pick up trash.”

   Speaking of this, he paused for a moment and continued.

"There are four other companies of the same size as Kangmao Group, Yinyi, which is mainly engaged in the manufacture of exploration equipment and heavy engineering equipment, Changge, which sells arms products, an endpoint that provides intelligent services and cloud technology, and the largest contractor in Ideal City And property—ideal group.”

"Although there are tens of thousands of companies in Ideal City, the seats on the Supreme Council are basically in the hands of these five companies. If the aid resolution is passed on the council's vote, these five companies will basically contribute money and efforts .”

  Chu Guang suddenly asked curiously.

   "What determines the seats on your council?"

  Luo Hua hesitated and said.

   "Of course it's equity... why are you asking this?"

  Chu Guang smiled and said.

   "I'm just a little curious... Speaking of the equity, can it be traded? Is it directly purchased with Cr?"

   "Yes, yes, but basically no one will sell it at will."

Luo Hua frowned and thought for a moment, then continued, "I heard that a century ago, corporate equity transactions were very active, but now they are basically concentrated in the hands of five companies. Moreover, the rules for equity transactions are very strict. available."

  Chu Guang nodded slightly.

   This is probably a variant of representative system?

  However, the subject of power is not a person, but a "shareholding", and its operation mode is probably similar to the "profiteering empire" in "Group Type".

As the number one "dog licking" of Ideal City, Boulder City has borrowed from Ideal City's technology and rules to a certain extent. However, since this trend started from the aristocratic class, they only borrowed ideas that are beneficial to their own class. that part.

   In the end, a semi-feudal lord and semi-capitalized operation was born.

  However, even though there are differences in many fields, when the official power of Ideal City appeared in front of him, it still brought a lot of shock to the nobles of Boulder City.

  Including the leader Zhao Yongxu.

  The word "dread" was almost written on his face.

  Even hardliners who are keen to show off their force have to admit that showing off their force to those on the east coast is not a smart choice.

   While Zhao Yongxu was anxiously thinking about how to respond, two bionics with distinctive shapes left the formation and walked towards Chu Guang.

  They wear a silver cloak.

  It is obviously different from those mass-produced models. They have facial features similar to human beings, and appearances that conform to human aesthetics.

   "Welcome to you, friends from afar, I am the manager of the alliance, Chu Guang."

  Looking at the two bionics approaching, Chu Guang estimated that they might be representatives of the company, so he stretched out his right hand.

  The right hand holding the power armor shook.

  The bionic man headed by bent the corner of his mouth, and spoke in a voice without waves.

   "Thank you for your welcome, and I hope we didn't come too late. My name is Frost, model A-130."

   Frost is okay.

  Chu Guang looked at the person next to it with a strange expression, and was about to ask if it was called Unreal.

   Probably read the question on his face, the bionic man took the initiative to introduce himself before he asked the question.

   "Eclipse, Model A-110."

  Hearing these two names, Luo Hua's face was a little surprised.

   These two androids are models he has never heard of.

  Thinking of this, he couldn't help muttering in a low voice.

   "...Looks like I've been away from home for too long."

   While Chu Guang was thinking about how to communicate with these two bionic friends, a figure trotted over from the plane not far away.

   "Wait a minute, I, I am the representative of the expeditionary force... Yi Chuan! Overseas Business Development Department of Silver Wing Group! Nice to meet you!"

   stopped in his tracks, the man supported his knees with his hands and gasped for a few breaths, and finally recovered his breath, looking at Chu Guang in front of him, he squeezed out a smile.

   "It seems that we came in time!"

  Chu Guang looked at the panting man in front of him with a strange expression, and then glanced at Hanshuang who was watching him with a smile on his face.

   Are these people not communicating?

   So much so that he almost got the reinforcements representative wrong.

   Before he could speak, Luo Hua suddenly opened his eyes wide and recognized the person in front of him.

   "Yi Chuan?!"

   The two obviously knew each other.

  The young man who had just caught his breath froze, looked at Luo Hua who was leaning on a cane next to Chu Guang, and immediately recognized him.

   "Luo Hua?! I heard you were seriously injured... Hey, where is your arm?"

  Luo Hua looked at his left hand and said with a wry smile.

   "Put my affairs aside for now...let's talk about it later when we talk about the past."

  Obviously knowing that this is not an occasion for reminiscing about the past, Yi Chuan nodded, looked at Chu Guang standing in front of him, cleared his throat, and said seriously.

   "You are the manager of shelter No. 404, nice to meet you!"

   "Chu Guang, I'm glad to meet you too."

   As he spoke, Chu Guang made a joke to ease the atmosphere, "It seems that you are the representative of the reinforcements. Just now I was still thinking about how to communicate with our bionic friend."

  Looking at the two bionics next to him, Yi Chuan had a slightly embarrassed smile on his face.

   "These two are representatives of Kangmao Group...they may be more enthusiastic."

  Chu Guang nodded.

  From the expression on the face of the young man in front of him, he vaguely noticed something unusual. It seems that there should be disagreements on some issues within the company.

  However, that is an internal matter of the company and has nothing to do with the new alliance, and Chu Guang does not want to get involved in their internal affairs.

   Fighting for more benefits and compensation for his little players and the residents of the alliance is what a manager should do.

   While talking, two men and a woman came not far away.

  The three of them got off the last plane. After they approached, Yi Chuan introduced to Chu Guang.

   "This is Wu Mu, a senior employee of the product sales department of Changge Group!"

  The young man named Wu Mu was wearing a set of red-painted power armor, with a hearty smile on his face, and he proactively extended his right hand.

   "Hello, the manager of the alliance! I have seen your video, where is the death claw? Why didn't you ride it?"

   After shaking hands with him, Chu Guang smiled and said.

   "It has a bad temper and is not suitable for meeting guests, but if you are interested, I can take you to have a look, and even give you one."

   "Haha, that's great, I can remember this sentence!" Wu Mu's eyes flashed with strong interest.

  Compared with other people, Chu Guang can clearly feel that the representative from Changge Group in front of him is probably the one he likes the most.

   There's even a little bit of...worship?

  However, compared with the others, this one doesn’t look like he’s here to fight a war. It’s a bit like an outing. It’s hard not to doubt his professional ability.

Of course.

  Maybe his specialty is not in the battlefield, after all, according to Yi Chuan's introduction, his profession seems to be "sales"?

  Compared with this friend named Wu Mu, the aura of the other two representatives is obviously much more stable, especially the middle-aged man who is about forty years old.

  There was a trace of rigidity in that old-fashioned face, and it was difficult for Chu Guang to see his thoughts from the changes in his expression.

   Before Yi Chuan introduced himself, the middle-aged man spoke in a businesslike tone.

"Li Changkong, the business staff of Ideal Group, our engineering equipment and construction technology will be open to you to help you build a more reliable logistics supply line and ensure that war materials and personnel can be smoothly sent from the rear to the front...Of course, what we can do It’s just to help you build roads and strengthen fortifications, as for the resources needed for construction and the front-line warfare, you still have to rely on yourself.”

   Chu Guang smiled and shook hands with him.

   "Enough is enough."

  The largest contractor and property in Ideal City.

   Thinking about it, he shouldn't be disappointed.

  After introducing the representatives of Changge Group and Ideal Group, Yi Chuan continued to introduce the last one, the representative from Endpoint Group.

   "This is a senior engineer from the AI ​​Technology Department of Endpoint Group... Yunyou, she will serve as your information technology consultant during the war and help you complete the construction of information-related infrastructure. Although she is very young, in fact—"

  Crossing his arms in front of his chest, the one named Yun You coughed lightly, interrupting his speech, and continued with a blank expression.

  "My personal situation should have nothing to do with my job content."

   Yi Chuan said embarrassedly.

"Feel sorry."

  Chu Guang sized her up.

  She is in her early twenties, with a temperament like a typical researcher, and her dress style is similar to Heya, but she is a little shorter.

   Probably between Heya and Fujito.

  Perhaps it was the glasses on the bridge of her nose that magnified her sharp eyes. He always felt that this guy had an inexplicable... vigilance towards him?

   Before Chu Guang could speak, Yun You looked at him and stated his position directly.

  "To be honest, I don't agree with the option of war. Rather than fighting like wild beasts, I think problems should be solved through dialogue, otherwise it is nothing more than repeating the mistakes made two hundred years ago."

  Chu Guang smiled faintly.

   "If you can drive those beasts away with your mouth, I'd rather use your mouth."

  Yunyou raised her eyebrows, and was about to say something, when Yi Chuan, who was standing aside, coughed and interrupted her.

"Ms. Yun's opinion is only her own. Resolution 1001 passed unanimously is the embodiment of our collective will... We all have relatives who have been involved in this war, whether it is active or passive, and what we have to do now Just end it!"

   As he spoke, he looked at Chu Guang.

  "The Legion must stop its territorial ambitions to the east of the Great Desert, abandon the military base in Luoxia Province, return the Pioneer, and release the Pioneer crew trapped in the Great Desert!"

   This is not a slogan.

   Instead, it was announced by the representatives of the reinforcements, the war goal of the enterprise in this war.

   Driving the army out of Luoxia Province is also one of the goals of the alliance. Only in this way can the threat from the west be ended.

   Chu Guang stretched out his right hand.

   "We stand on the same side, and we are glad to stand on the same front with you!"

"So are we!"

  Holding Chu Guang's right hand, Yi Chuan said solemnly.

   "Your bravery on the front line shocked everyone. The cry of war has never been higher. Although we are three thousand kilometers apart, our desire for civilization is the same."

   "The first batch of aid includes five hundred A-30 android soldiers, who will go to the front line to fight with you!"

"In addition, there are munitions, construction machinery, and production equipment worth 300 million Cr, which will be airlifted here one after another. We will not only help you build a complete supply line, but also help you complete industrial upgrades and use more advanced equipment. Arm your production lines and armies with technology!"

  Hearing what his allies said, Chu Guang couldn't help beaming with joy even though he managed his expressions well.

  The munitions of 300 million Cr is a trivial matter, and there is nothing to be excited about with 500 bionic soldiers. The key is the promise in the back!

   Isn't this what he was waiting for!

   Yi Chuan paused, and continued.

   "...However, we only had time to produce these 12 large aircraft with a range of more than 3,000 kilometers. Before the subsequent reinforcements arrive, we need an aviation base to replenish energy for our aircraft."

  Chu Guang asked immediately.

   "What energy do you need?"

"Metal hydrogen!" Yi Chuan said seriously, "We plan to build a metal hydrogen production line in the southern part of River Valley Province to supply energy and produce ammunition. This requires about 100 acres of land, and the requirement is that the local area can provide stable and sufficient electricity, and Water sources... We are not familiar with the local conditions, and these may trouble you to think of a way."

   Electricity and water?

   That's easy to say!

  Chu Guang's heart moved, and a bright smile appeared on his face.

   "This is very simple. I just happened to know a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, not only close to the water source, but also not far from our controllable fusion power station!"

   "There is also a controllable fusion power station here?!" Yi Chuan's eyes lit up, and a hint of surprise floated on his face, "Great!"

  He was already prepared to use thermal power to generate electricity for emergency, but he didn't expect these inland allies to give them a surprise.

  Chu Guang continued to draw the pie with a smile on his face.

"North of Xizhou City, on the south bank of a tributary of Tianshui, we plan to build a river port there. Nearby Xizhou City has our fusion reactor, and power is expected to be restored before the end of the month. I can lend you the open space near the port, but... "

   Speaking of this, Chu Guang suddenly paused for a moment.

   Seeing the embarrassed expression on his face, Yi Chuan asked quickly.

   "But what?"

  Chu Guang said with some embarrassment.

   "However, our control of that area is weak, and there are looters on the north bank of the river... which may have an impact on the safety of the air base."

  Hearing this, Yi Chuan heaved a sigh of relief, with a smile on his face.

   "Hey, small matter! If there are looters coming, let us take care of it!"

  Hearing these words, a happy smile appeared on Chu Guang's face again.

   "With your words, I feel relieved!"

  There is a company helping to guard the northern gate of the alliance. It should be difficult for the Legion's intelligence network in the Buguera Free State to take action.

   In this way, he can free up more manpower to devote to the new expansion pack!

  …

   (Thanks to "NightChicK3n" for the Silver League!! Thanks to the leader of "As a Congxin" for the reward!! It's really not that I don't want to add more, the main thing is that there is really no manuscript. QAQ)
