Chapter 47: Completion of the Industrial Park
At the opening ceremony of the new century in Raccoon City, the Umbrella Company showed its strength to the outside world.
Faced with umbrella companies that were overwhelming them with various strengths, some small businesses wisely chose to join or surrender. After the opening ceremony of the new century, small businesses continued to express their intention to cooperate, and these were all handled by some newcomers in the company.
.
Duncan is now eager to acquire some management talents. Even if he loses some profits due to some negligence in the process of cultivating talents, it doesn't matter. The umbrella can afford the loss.
His ability to handle company affairs is not very high. He only makes long-term investments at the expense of immediate interests, but only on the premise that he holds the key to success.
There are companies that are aware of the gap and choose to cooperate, but there are companies that are unwilling to face the facts, or are greedy for the technology of the umbrella company.
With more and more infiltration operations into the Umbrella Company, Buck and his team's picket department became busier and busier, and many capable subordinates were transferred from the Umbrella Security Department.
The picket department is busy, and even the Raccoon City Police Department is busy. Even the task of patrolling the streets is outsourced to the Umbrella Security Company. There are vehicles from the Umbrella Security Department patrolling the streets at all times, arresting some suspicious people at any time.
stand up.
The citizens who were conquered by Duncan's money-splitting methods would not have much resistance to the security guards of the umbrella. On the contrary, they were very welcoming.
During a busy period of time, the industrial park in the suburbs was completed, which took a total of 7 months.
Because it is close to the Meimen Bridge, Duncan, who was too lazy to think of a name, simply called this industrial park Meimen Industrial Park. It was named after the traffic bridge in Raccoon City, which is a metaphor for the industrial park as a bridge between two worlds.
On the day the industrial park was built, a large amount of metal materials were successively delivered to the building, and the Ark reactor, which was made in advance, was quickly transported to the industrial park for assembly, preparing to completely replace the old power generation system.
Electricity in the entire city became free on the day Duncan made those three promises. Raccoon City consumes a lot of money for one day's electricity consumption. This senseless wasteful behavior should be put to an end as soon as possible.
Ten days later, the Ark Reactor was assembled, and the Duncan bionic man arrived with the media reporters to show the trouble-making energy companies the Ark Reactor start-up ceremony.
Skipping the meaningless speech phase, the cold fusion reactor was "ignited" and blue arcs filled the entire power supply room.
Power is transmitted through cables and delivered to every place in Raccoon City, eventually allowing thousands of homes in Raccoon City to shine again.
The stable power output effect has greatly shocked scientists in the world of biohazard. Their cold fusion technology, which was still in the theoretical stage, was suddenly displayed in the eyes of the world. How powerful is the technology of Umbrella?
When the real objects were put in front of them, some conservatives who still had a sense of luck completely defected to the umbrella side, while others who were unwilling to let go of their interests began to spread rumors on the Internet that cold fusion technology was not perfect and had huge interests.
Safety hazards, etc...
The "war" between giant international companies has also plunged the world into turmoil.
Particularly in some areas where energy is the main source of income, there is naturally great dissatisfaction with the umbrella.
Letters of negotiation were sent to the umbrella company one after another, leaving Duncan a bit overwhelmed.
Faced with invitations to negotiate from various regions, he temporarily postponed them.
That night, he put on his steel suit, left the hive base, and came to Meimen Industrial Park under the cover of darkness.
In the current industrial park, there are only 500 clone security patrols and guards, and all internal workers have gone to other construction sites.
Duncan walked into the circular transfer center. The place was still very empty. Except for the bright incandescent lights above his head, there was only a giant square frame in the center of the transfer center, which was where the "door" was.
With a slight movement of thought, the square frame was like a stone thrown into the water on a calm lake, causing waves in circles, and finally stabilized, turning into a huge door twenty-five meters high and twenty meters wide.
Opposite the door, there is also a wide interior space of the building, but the difference is that the opposite side is not as empty as the transfer center.
The door opened this time was special. It was a two-way passage. After Duncan opened the door, he also saw the door on the other side.
Tony, who was wearing a T-shirt, had been standing behind the door waiting. When he saw the door suddenly opened, he naturally saw Duncan in battle armor and let out a long breath.
With a clap of his hands, the originally quiet warehouse became lively after the clap of Tony's hands, and the sound of various mechanical startups filled the hall.
When Duncan took off his armor and entered the noisy warehouse from the quiet transfer center, his ears were almost deafened by the stimulation.
"It's finally started!" Tony met Duncan and showed a relieved expression.
He had made so many preparations that if he hadn't occasionally seen Duncan wandering over to him, he would have almost suspected that it was just a dream.
Duncan smiled and looked at the unmanned transport vehicles that were entering the portal in an orderly manner. He was very satisfied and said: "Yes, the future is waving to us! Did you watch the video I gave you? How did my speech go?"
"
The video is a recording of the hearing provoking capitalists and announcing the future development direction of the umbrella company.
To achieve the goal of "eternal glory of mankind", Tony's power is crucial, because he is a cheating player and a person cursed by knowledge.
As long as he puts his mind to it, he can accomplish anything. Even the matter of the portal across the world, Tony already has some ideas.
"That's good. I didn't expect you to have a talent for speaking. It's boring to do this. How about going out for a drink?" Tony was about to have a good chat with Duncan. Before they met, they were talking about cooperation and chatting.
develop.
Using the video as a conversation starter, Tony also wanted to talk to Duncan about the future. In that video, Duncan's speech shocked him greatly.
Humanity... After becoming Iron Man, Tony has been worried about the survival of mankind, but all he has been doing is to be a good hero and use himself as an example to activate the kindness in more people.
He felt that he had done a good job, and indeed many people regarded him as a hero and dreamed of becoming one.
Peter Parker from Queens is the best tribute to his heroic career.
But after watching the video of Duncan's speech, he realized that he should be able to do more.
Duncan can sacrifice the interests of the company and lose money to bring changes to the world, but what about Stark Industries?
After thinking for a long time, Tony could only shake his head slightly. The Umbrella Company in another world is too special. Stark Industries is not yet able to compete with global capital. It needs time to develop.
Duncan made a serious expression and said, "Okay!"
The two of them passed through a large number of machines.
Duncan looked at the unmanned transport vehicle passing by. There were three layers of roller-shaped robots neatly arranged on the vehicle. These robots were all crawler chassis and highly modular engineering robots.
These robots are the first-generation industrial robots displayed on the holographic billboards at the opening event of the new century.
These industrial robots are highly modular and can be used in complex factory environments. Their multi-module components allow them to perform a variety of tasks that require flexible hands.
As long as it is controlled by artificial intelligence, they can replace human power and achieve true autonomy!
These unattractive-looking robots cost Tony a lot of energy. His technology was fine, but the difficulty was just how to reduce the cost to a level suitable for mass manufacturing.
In the end, the cost of each of these robots is about 100,000 US dollars, and the service life is conservatively calculated to be 30 years.
