Blackstone Code

"Lynch is going too far."

In a bright office, the faces of several gentlemen were not so pretty.

After some unpleasant and silent conversation, one of the gentlemen could not help but sigh.

As this sentence appeared, everyone's expression was slightly different.

Some people's faces were full of contempt and disdain, some people frowned with a look of disgust, and some people lowered their heads quietly with no expression on their faces.

About twenty seconds later, someone continued, "Even if you hate him or don't like him, there's nothing you can do against him."

"Can you still kill him?"

There was another longer silence in the room, but compared to the mostly negative expressions on people's faces during the silence just now, the expressions on the faces of these gentlemen were more inclined to think.

"Hey, you're not really considering this possibility, are you?"

The gentleman who spoke couldn't help but look at the others as if he was seeking confirmation or some kind of "persuasion" to himself.

At this time, the gentleman sitting by the window raised his eyebrows and said, "If this continues, I'd rather someone kill him!"

"Look at the good things he has done recently!"

"I have never been so dissatisfied with a person. He succeeded, he did it!"

Lynch has been running the Shelter Industry Committee recently, and under his leadership, the society has accepted the emergence of this new industry committee.

And many people have provided them with a lot of constructive opinions and suggestions.

It must be said that Lynch has an excellent ability to organize and mobilize people's emotions. After his efforts, the society's recognition of the Shelter Industry Committee has increased a lot.

This also caused the big consortium's idea of ​​​​to destroy this organization to be gradually abandoned. After all, their products are ultimately sold to ordinary people.

What they want to do is to please, satisfy and even deceive consumers, making them feel that they are on the same side as them, rather than causing any negative impact that will harm their own interests.

Lynch united the operators of these small and medium-sized shelters, who usually looked down upon them, and formulated more "fair" industry standards, which made large shelters uncompetitive in front of these small and medium-sized shelters.

Small and medium-sized shelters that cater to most ordinary people basically start inviting people to stay for free. People can apply for a living space here for free, and then complete some of the tasks to obtain resources for survival.

This is a disaster for large shelters and very large shelters, whose attempts to replicate the real estate model of selling space and selling resources to continue making profits fall flat.

And they have to compete with these small and medium-sized shelters, otherwise there won’t be that many people living in their shelters.

Some very large shelters have begun to stop subsequent construction plans because they simply cannot find so many people to join the shelter.

This has caused unexpected problems in many consortiums' original plans, causing them to face huge losses.

Whoever makes them lose wealth is their enemy, whoever makes them make money is their relative.

Even if this person is Lynch, as long as Lynch harms their interests, they will be on the opposite side of Lynch.

"Really...has anyone ever considered this idea?"

After a brief silence in the room, someone could not hold his breath and said this as if he was suppressing his inner excitement.

After he finished speaking, he went to observe the expressions of other people, and saw that those people did not show any obvious resistance, which meant that these people seemed to be thinking about the possibility of doing this.

He emphasized his tone, "Our losses are now huge, and it is very likely that this will be a huge loss-making project."

"There is very serious dissatisfaction with the board of directors in the group company, and shareholders also have great resentment."

“Some people feel that we have lost so much wealth and resources by building our own shelters, so we might as well abandon the plan at that time and join other shelters with this wealth and resources.”

"This is much better than the current bad situation. Not only will we not suffer any losses, but we will gain better opportunities."

Several other people had more or less looks of approval on their faces, and they actually felt a little regretful.

Who knew that things like shelters would be so popular, and they actually figured out the reason for the proliferation, which was Lynch's technology sharing.

Shelter technology is a general term for the basic science and technology required to build shelters. It is very complex and high-end and cannot be mastered by small companies.

It is said that the technologies that Lynch contributed have cost billions in research and development. If he did not share these technologies, there would be no way for those small shelters to appear!

In a sense, he was the one driving the proliferation of shelters!

Now that he has formed an industry committee and occupies an important position, it is difficult not to think that this is probably part of his complete plan.

The gentleman who spoke first pursed his lips. His eyes changed slightly and he was a little panicked. He lowered his voice and said, "This matter...should not have anything to do with us. No matter whether it can be done or it will fail."

Someone went on to say, "The relationship between Lynch and the five major banks is very bad now. Compared with their losses, our losses are nothing at all."

"Maybe they are the people in the world who wish Lynch didn't exist the most, and can we take advantage of that?"

The gentleman sitting by the window asked, "What are you going to do?"

"Talk to them..."

After a brief silence, every gentleman voted in favor of the plan to push the five major banks to deal with Lynch.

No one is more suitable to be this bad guy than the Five Elements, no one.

"But we need a reason that will convince the big five actors."

“How about the Global Communication platform?”

"Agree!"

"Excellent!"

Lynch did not expect that he himself had not yet proposed to include the Global Access platform within the scope of shelter standards. At a recent meeting, a small shelter operator mentioned this matter.

"Now that we have formed an alliance, should we also form a closer alliance in the daily operation and management of the shelter?"

"We talked about transportation between shelters at the last meeting, and we have to consider whether shelter residents will make the 'travel.'"

“Go from one shelter to another and feel the difference between different shelters.”

"This involves many complex issues. Mr. Chairman has also mentioned it once before, including the management of the flow of people, the identification method of the floating population, and... the currency relationship circulating in the shelter era."

"I heard that Mr. Chairman once wanted to operate a letter of credit on his own, but Congress didn't approve it, right?"

Lynch, who was sitting in the chairman's seat, looked at the speaker, with the speaker's personal information in his mind.

A shelter with a total construction cost of approximately 200 million, like most other shelters, is composed of multiple funders.

The outbreak of this kind of small and medium-sized shelters is actually something that many people have never imagined, but it is reasonable.

The end of the world is coming, and the innate uneasiness and vigilance of the federal people make them more convinced that their destiny is in their own hands.

The entire social order will collapse when the end of the world comes. No matter how much wealth we have now, it is not as important as the power to survive.

Therefore, many individuals or companies are willing to spend a lot of money to build shelters.

What people didn't expect was that Lynch lowered the threshold for shelter construction, and then it became like this.

In a few seconds, Lynch had a rough impression of the speaker's identity, and there were no obvious problems.

But he was very vigilant and nodded cautiously, "Yes."

The spokesperson continued to ask with a faint smile, "Then why doesn't Mr. Lynch talk to us about how you plan to operate the letter of credit issue?"

"And can letters of credit be used for privately run shelters like ours?"

"If you have a very convenient and quick method, maybe it will save us a lot of time and work."

"For example...Global Communications?"

Although he didn't know why this person took the initiative to talk about this, Lynch was also sure that he had not arranged for "one of his own", but now that it was mentioned, he would not refuse.

Just like a strong warrior who is not afraid of any challenge, Lynch is not only strong, he is also fucking magic!

"The Global Communication Platform is a platform designed to provide wireless instant communication for shelters around the world. We do not need any phone lines or cable connections to communicate with any shelter and exchange information and data."

"This is a very cutting-edge technology. You can think of it as a modern communication platform with global coverage, including phone calls, faxes, and even more things."

"The most important thing is that it only takes a few seconds for us to transmit this data from one end of the planet to the other."

"And that's why I'm proposing to Congress that I run a letter of credit that would solve a lot of the problems that we have today that we can't easily solve."

"For example, the issue of new currency."

"With just a card, a person can spend the wealth he has in any shelter. It is more convenient, faster, more timely, and safer than a check!"

"Scientists can use it to conduct scientific discussions face-to-face, and relatives can also use it to conduct face-to-face video and voice chats."

"The development of industry has made the planet smaller and smaller, and the global communication platform has shortened the distance between people to zero!"

"Social order is based on communication, not just language communication, but communication in many aspects."

"Behavior, policies and regulations, all kinds of things we are aware of and things we are not aware of."

"The Global Connect platform provides us with a foundation that can continue to maintain social order and a certain degree of prosperity, which is why I want to vigorously promote it."

"Even though some people think I'm going to use it to control the world."

There were some good-natured laughs, and for most here, Lynch's domination of the world, or lack thereof, has no direct bearing on them.

On the contrary, if Lynch can really rule the world, it will be a good thing for some small shelters.

At least...he is much better than those big consortiums, isn't he?

People laughed kindly and made the atmosphere harmonious.

"Mr. Lynch, do we need to pay for using the Global Communication platform?"

"unnecessary!"

Lynch's very affirmative words caused some noise at the scene. He slightly increased the volume, "Any shelter does not need to pay any fees to connect to the Global Communication System."

"Of course, you will definitely have to spend money to buy the most basic communication equipment."

"My role is like a current communication network provider. I will provide you with communication channels and methods, but you have to make or buy the phone yourself."

"To be honest, the cost of making these machines yourself is much higher than the cost of building your shelter. On the contrary, it is very cheap to buy them."

"I will not charge any service fees in the process of operating it. It is completely free, and my purpose of doing this is not to make money."

"In other words, the channel I use to make money is not with you."

Some people have a rough idea of ​​what Lynch said, while others still don't understand it. This is the different perceptions they have at different heights.

Representatives of large financial groups, including banks, certainly know what Lynch is talking about. Once he can control the global currency circulation relationship, even if he does not make a penny from it, there will be countless ways to make money!

He doesn't care at all and will not compete with these people for their interests. Instead, he will benefit them and provide free services to complete the hegemony that defends his communication platform!

This is a conspiracy, put directly on the table, telling these banks and large consortiums that you can either go it alone or do what I say.

Many small and medium-sized shelters immediately became interested. As we all know, telephone calls in the Federation are not expensive, but the service fee is expensive.

If Lynch really doesn’t charge service fees...

Why not join in?

"Mr. Lynch, do you really not charge any other fees?"

Lynch nodded, "It can be written into the contract. I can guarantee that there will be no additional fees for using the Global Communication platform. It is free for everyone to use, and it is unlimited."

"Including whether you use the Global Communication platform and related services is your free decision. I will not force anyone to do anything they don't want to do."

"For me, profit is not my only and ultimate goal. Wealth can no longer impress me."

"The survival of human civilization is what I really care about!"

Immediately, some shelter operators took the initiative to shout, "I want to participate, Mr. Lynch..."
