The two groups of people in the audience became even more enthused when they heard this. They became more and more excited. Cory and his compatriots who were all holding towels subconsciously held the towels tighter in their hands as if what they were holding was not a towel but a ticket to prosperity and wealth. However, they ignored the other members of the Armed Calvary Guards around them who were not holding towels and had already started to quietly look at them from the corners of their eyes as they were ready to attack them at any time.Charlie, who was on stage, then smiled slightly and said, “I have some good news to tell you today. The British Lord has prepared a new antidote for you, and this new antidote extends the attack time for the poison in your body from every seven days to fifteen days. I hope that everyone can make good contributions to the British Lord in the future!”After saying that, he waved his right hand and said loudly, “Come, give me the antidote and w
Cory was startled when he heard Charlie say the words ‘Do it’.One of the thoughts in his mind was ‘Do it? Do what? Special Envoy Master, it cannot be that you’re asking twenty of us to kill more than two hundred of them, right? This is clearly an impossible task!’.The other members of the Armed Calvary Guards who were holding towels like him were also at a loss. They did not know what Charlie meant by ‘Do it’.But at this moment, the members of the Armed Calvary around them suddenly moved!Noel, the Left Banner Commander, and another banner commander attacked Cory in an instant. Before Cory could react, both his arms were grabbed by the two men in a deadly grip.Cory was shocked and blurted out, “What are you two trying to do?! Do you still want to rebel in front of the Special Envoy Master?!” Noel said coldly, “Cory, do you really think that today is an auspicious day for you to soar to greater heights?”Cory could not break free at all after being controlled by the two of t
These seven people were extremely excited at this time.Being able to come back was also something that had previously been unthinkable.What’s more, Charlie had controlled the situation here completely now.Not only would they be able to return, but they would even be able to reunite with their loved ones here!This was definitely the best outcome for them.Charlie then said, “I announce that from today onward, all the members of the Armed Calvary Guards will be reorganized. Noel will be the commander of the Armed Calvary Guards. The Right Banner Commander will remain unchanged, and the Left Banner Commander and Central Banner Commander will be selected through a nomination. Noel will nominate five people, and each of you will then vote internally to choose the person with the highest number of votes from the five people to take up the position!”“In addition, the Armed Calvary Guards will form a cabinet with a maximum of eleven members starting today. Aside from the commander,
The mining location of this copper mine was located at a depth of about five hundred meters underground. Charlie asked Noel and the Section Ambassador who was under his control to lead the crowd together with him to take the lifting cage to the dead soldiers’ living quarters. As they made their way down, Noel introduced the specific situation of this copper mine to Charlie.After decades of continuous development, the interior of this copper mine had become extremely intricate and complex. It consisted of a total of three parts. The first was the normal mining part of the copper mine which included the tunnel and the mining surface. The second was the part where the dead soldiers and their relatives lived, and the third was the part where all the supplies and equipment were stored. Going down from the shaft all the way to the bottom was, in fact, just going down to the working face of the copper mine.After going down, it could be seen that this was a very standard medium-siz
There was actually a large machine room behind this wall. This machine room was in fact a heavy-duty elevator equipment and operation room, and there was a large lifting cage below the machine room.Noel led the crowd into the cage, activated the cage with his own iris, and the cage then brought the crowd to the depths of negative six hundred meters. As the cage moved downward, Noel said to Charlie, “Mr. Wade, all the safety equipment here is one-way. The hidden door just now as well as the lifting cage can only be operated from outside. In addition, after the cage reaches the bottom, there is a door that can only be opened from the outside.”Charlie asked him, “This should be the only access to the outside world from the dead soldiers’ living quarters, right?”“That’s right.” Noel nodded and said, “The dead soldiers can only enter and exit through a passage, but there are a large number of steel ventilation pipes in their living quarters. However, the thickest internal diameter o
At this moment, the dead soldiers as well as their families who were kneeling to greet the special envoy did not know that the man in the black robe in front of them was no longer the special envoy they thought he was.According to the regulations, on the day of the antidote distribution, all the dead soldiers and their families had to line up in this hall that was tens of thousands of square meters in advance and kneel to welcome the special envoy. Charlie was also shocked by the scene in front of him when he saw so many people kneeling on the ground.This underground area that was tens of thousands of square meters with a height of more than ten meters combined with the huge support pillars and the lighting at the top which made it look as bright as day made this scene look like a magnificent ancient palace. What’s more, thousands of people were kneeling in front of Charlie and saying the same sentence in unison. The echo made the entire underground space shake. Charlie looked
Charlie saw the people’s shocked and flustered expressions, so he said lightly. “To tell you the truth, I’m not the special envoy from the Qing Eliminating Society. The real special envoy is under my control now, and all the members of the Armed Calvary Guards have already sworn their allegiance to me to fight by my side against the Qing Eliminating Society. So, I came to ask you whether you would like to fight alongside me like them?”The crowd was in an uproar as soon as Charlie said this!No one expected that things would turn out so unexpectedly!However, 3900 was shocked and could not help but say, “Sir, if what you’ve said is true, none of us would be able to survive today. Even if you obtain the real antidote from the real special envoy, we would only be able to live for another week. Even if we wanted to fight alongside you, I’m afraid we would be powerless.”3900’s words made all the dead soldiers who were in shock feel extremely depressed for a moment.Everyone knew that
From the time that 3900 could remember, his father had used practical actions to let him understand that the fate of the dead soldiers was extremely difficult, but each generation was still living strong and producing offspring with the sole purpose of hoping that their own bloodline would finally be able to break the shackles of the Qing Eliminating Society one day in the future and truly gain freedom.There were several difficulties in front of this goal, and the first difficulty that needed to be crossed was the severe poison that occurred regularly in their bodies. There was really no need to talk about this kind of poison. No matter how many dead soldiers and generations had tried, they still had no way to get rid of this strange poison.Although 3900 had never forgotten his father’s earnest teachings, he also knew very well that this was simply something he could not accomplish. He had even pinned his hopes on his son and even his son’s future son. The mentality of all
"That would be Ashley Layna Acker," Matilda replied without hesitation. "She was our age, as well as a major investor in Silicon Valley, while we were only starting to get our first clients. It's no exaggeration to say that she's the shining example in many case studies when it comes to business."Pausing, she then continued, "And she used to be your classmate, right? I remember you mentioning that in our conversations before.""Yes," Yolden sighed emotionally. "She was a classmate and the star of our generation."Matilda nodded but soon shook her head, "Wait, weren't we talking about Charlie's car company? What does that have to do with Ashley Acker?" "Here's where I let you in on a secret," Yolden said. "But first, you have to promise me that you won't tell anyone except Paul."Matilda nodded without hesitation. "Don't worry—if it's a secret, I won't tell Paul either."Yolden scratched his head. "Actually, Paul should know. We are going to marry soon, and he's my stepson, lega
In fact, the legal department of major enterprises covered many responsibilities, the chief of which concerned intellectual property, which was why veterans were needed to lead.Additionally, Charlie trusted Matilda's accomplishments in the legal field, especially since she had worked in the United States for years.With Curtis Autos' intended expansion worldwide, that meant the legal department should also know the laws of countries abroad, ready to file or respond to lawsuits at any time. After all, competitors may use the law to impede their growth, along with the government applying unfair policies to impede their development and impact on local businesses.Moreover, Charlie considered Paul young and therefore lacking in experience, not to mention that it was not likely he would abandon his family's law firm. As such, the ideal solution was to poach Matilda for now.As for Matilda, she was still in the dark and had no idea what she was in for, asking Charlie in confusion, "Lega
Later, after Charlie told Jeremiah over the phone about the joint venture with the Ackers to establish Curtis Autos, the old man was awash with tears, especially after Charlie told him that it was Keith who suggested it. After all, Curtis was his favorite son whose death he could never really get over. Moreover, he once believed that only his family mourned Curtis while the Ackers never did, and he held a grudge over his son's passing. As such, he was surprised that Keith held such great respect toward his late son and didn't hesitate to say yes when Charlie invited him to Aurous Hill to sign an agreement with the Ackers.Still, Charlie wasn't in a hurry to arrange for a specific time, and he was going to let the Ackers sort out the human resources of Godot Autos over a few days. It still wouldn't be too late by then.Moreover, he was keen to allow the buzz to have time to grow so that the automotive industry would be astounded by the joint project between the Ackers and the Wade
Christian was the first to exclaim in approval, "Yes! Curtis Autos sounds wonderful! It has my vote!""Seconded!" Kaiden nodded, pumping the air with his right fist. "I've looked up to Curtis the most, and I absolutely agree with naming the company after him!"Jaxson was nodding too. "Me too!""Yes!" Lulu chirped.Yolden couldn't help agreeing as well. "Curtis Autos is definitely a good name!"Merlin raised his hand gingerly as well. "Quit it with your flattery already," Keith chuckled, and he turned toward Charlie solemnly. "In the end, Curtis is Charlie's father, and the final decision goes to him!"Charlie's eyes were welling up with tears—his parents had been gone for almost three decades, yet he had never thought of dedicating anything to their memory.As such, Keith's suggestion to use Curtis's name for the car company left him thrilled. After all, wouldn't his father's soul be honored if Curtis Autos rocked the country, maybe even the world?With that in mind, he nodd
Charlie also had to agree that this was an opportunity to formally reconcile the Wades and the Ackers.While he couldn't reveal himself just yet, the Wades and the Ackers had been in-laws for years. Even if they had had a dispute for the longest time, restoring good relations made sense now that the Ackers had come to Oskia, and it wouldn't arouse any suspicion.That was why Charlie agreed to it without hesitation, even making a mental note to invite his paternal grandfather, Jeremiah, to Aurous Hill.The old geezers could meet up and clear the air while deciding on the partnership.Yolden was prepared to resign as a professor as well so that he could help the Ackers and Charlie fully develop their automotive company.With a general direction planned, he asked everyone, "Since we're creating a new brand, has anyone come up with a name?"No one was feeling inspired at that moment, but that was when Lulu, who had been silent throughout, said, "Since Charlie and our family are worki
Neither Charlie nor the Ackers expected Yolden's insight to cover all corners.In fact, it felt like the man had a blueprint ready and was only waiting for the time to put it to use.That was why everyone was immensely approving of Yolden and wanted no other man for the job of CEO.Kaeden smiled, "Well, since everyone has agreed, let's put this to rest as soon as possible—this will be a joint investment between our family and the Wades, and Professor Hart will take the post of CEO. Let's all do our best to make this a good one!"Yolden also made up his mind, deciding that he didn't want to let slip a chance to realize his ambitions. "I'll resign from the university after my honeymoon trip. It probably shouldn't be long, and I can get involved in early preparations via teleconference."Charlie nodded. "Then, we can have Uncle Kaeden stay on schedule while I'll ask the Wades to send a representative over to sign a memorandum for the investment."Keith smiled and nodded. "You should
Charlie hadn't been born and raised in Aurous Hill, but he still started living here at the age of eight and was more attached to this place than Eastcliff.If he was going to take part in this automotive investment with the Ackers, he naturally found Aurous Hill the ideal location.Not only would it create a huge number of jobs for Aurous Hill, but it would also rake in much economic flow for the region.Yolden also nodded at his suggestion. "If the first plant is meant to cover the demand of the entire local market, there's no reason for a coastal plant. Aurous Hill stands at an intersection between the north and the south, so transportation is convenient. It's also killing two birds with one stone, as Mr. Wade is fond of the city."Charlie couldn't help but agree. "I won't lie—Aurous Hill has been good to me, and I hope to give back. Nothing's better than succeeding in that respect."Yolden spread his hands, "Heavy industries are certainly ideal to contribute to Aurous Hill's e
Yolden had actually been researching new energy for a while—in fact, it was when Tesla's first car models were produced.He was passionate about the subject and had his own opinions as well as ambitions, but he was busy teaching, so he couldn't realize any of it.But was this not a golden opportunity tailor-made for him?Seeing that Yolden was clearly interested, Charlie turned toward Kaeden, "Actually, the professor is getting married soon. There's no way we'd split up newlyweds so soon after the wedding, right? So, is it possible to set up base in Aurous Hill instead?""Not a problem!" Kaeden replied without hesitation. "Our family is planning to return to Oskia anyway, and everyone knows about Ashley and Curtis. So, why don't we invest in this enterprise alongside the Wades and have the base set up in Aurous Hill? And then bring Godot under as a subsidiary?"Turning to Yolden, he continued, "By the way, Godot's plant is already in the province—barely 100 miles from Aurous Hill,
Pausing, Yolden continued, "Moreover, the greatest advantage of AI is that it is self-conscious and has the processing power to analyze astronomical proportions of data. As car sales grow, every car owner's driving data will add precious new data to our data vault, and it will be processed by AI for even greater space of imagination."For example, kst's say I experienced a bumpiness along a certain road, and when the sensors pick up on that anomaly, the data will be uploaded to the servers along with images of the road condition in real time. The processing AI module would determine in no time at all that there was damage and label said location on the map, and then forward the data to other vehicles close to that location, sending notifications when they are close enough and providing the appropriate advice for countermeasures."Naturally, the AI can even be refined further so that it immediately warns us to slow down while uploading the data to the servers and informing any cars cl
