Chapter 318: Driving Out Wolves and Swallowing Tigers! Ruins of the Temple! Leadership Module!
Seeing that the core executives of each department had expressed their own opinions, Li Ang did not rush to make a decision, but threw the question to V.
Li Ang intended to give the task of integrating the "Transformers" universe to V to lead and handle, and this would be the second universe under V's jurisdiction.
The 003 "Edge of Tomorrow" universe, which was previously in charge of V, has been handed over to Xu Shiming, the former CEO of Kangtao Company.
Although Li Ang will also participate in and handle most of the key decisions in this integration operation.
But for a small matter like integrating the earth, he still wants to understand the views of his trusted senior executive V first.
"V, what are you going to do."
Li Ang looked at V, who was at the headquarters of the front-line base, calmly through the hard light screen. He hoped to get some different answers from the other party.
In an instant, all the executives automatically quieted down and all looked at V.
Seeing this, V, who remained silent throughout the process, knew in his heart that neither decisive killing nor gentle handling was the solution that boss Li Ang wanted.
He knew that Leon had only one core idea in doing things, that is, efficiency, it must be clean and neat, and it must not be dragged on, leaving any sequelae or trouble.
Either don't do it, or do it all at once!
But the problem is that no matter whether it is decisive killing or a soft strategy, it is not a good idea to deal with the American government.
Killing will lead to the intensification of the contradictions on the earth. With the Zhentianzun and the Creator civilization outside, the bloodshed inside will only increase the difficulty of the integration of the giant company.
So the Universal Giant Company can do this, and it is not difficult to do this, but there is no need for it. After all, Leon rarely kills humans.
Only when the main universe was still in the cyber age, Leon used tough measures to kill many people in order to sweep away the forces of major companies and the remnants of the powerful.
But even so, not many ordinary people were affected, because the war only lasted for more than half a year and ended, and the rest was all about clearing out the remnants of a small number of companies.
However, if they choose to appease, the U.S. government will definitely be aggressive and start asking for various benefits and rights from the giant companies.
This kind of cowardly attitude is definitely not acceptable to the World Giant Company.
"Boss, I suggest that we cooperate with another big country to hold this global conference, and exclude the United States from participating in this technical assistance program."
After thinking seriously for a moment, V finally gave his response.
He knew that the fundamental reason why the United States refused the giant company to hold a meeting was because the United States wanted to monopolize the communication channels with the World Giant Company.
As long as the World Giant Company is not allowed to contact other countries, the United States can receive the latest information and situation trends at the first time.
But V did not let the U.S. government get what it wanted. He decided to exclude the United States in turn and refuse to let the other party join this meeting.
In the Earth Integration Plan formulated by Leon, there is a decision to first grant each country a portion of "backward but sufficient" advanced technology to quickly improve the combat strength of each country.
Let them actively cooperate with the integration actions of the Universal Giant Enterprise, so as to facilitate the confrontation with powerful enemies such as Megatron, Cybertron, and the Creator Civilization.
This was originally a far-reaching and important meeting, but the short-sighted American government, as the hegemon of the current Earth, was afraid that it would lose its technological advantage and thus lose its global hegemony.
This time, their top leaders led the United States to stand on the opposite side of mankind.
V knows the temperament of the United States as a country. Their history is too short. After becoming the hegemon of the Earth, they did all the things that nouveau riche would do.
Making enemies everywhere and causing trouble have already buried too many hidden dangers for the United States.
At this time, the rise of various countries led by the giant enterprises and obeying the orders of the Universal Giant Enterprises, and there is no need for the giant enterprises to send out a single soldier. There are more forces to clean up the United States.
When America is beaten up by other countries, they will naturally send friendly people and take the initiative to apply to the giant company to be a dog.
In this way, the world giant company can achieve the strategic goal of integrating the earth efficiently without leaving any sequelae, let alone implement various brutal killing methods and give others handles.
Even if America is beaten by other countries, it is the earth's own business. It has nothing to do with the world giant company. As long as the giant company does not do it personally, it is impeccable!
After listening to V's answer, Li Ang nodded repeatedly. He is worthy of being a core backbone senior who has mixed up from the grassroots. In terms of the way of thinking about dealing with problems, he can achieve a sharp effect.
For the mad dog of the American government, any normal person should not give priority to beating the dog personally. This approach is not decent, but it is likely to cause trouble.
Driving other dogs to bite and trample on the mad dog is the most time-saving and labor-saving, and it will not leave other troubles.
The other countries are the dogs that the giant companies are about to adopt. They have been bullied by the United States for too long.
If the giant companies give them a chance to take revenge and complain at this time, any normal country will obey the orders of the giant companies unconditionally.
In fact, Li Ang had already made this decision in his mind. He was very satisfied that V could match his approach this time.
The image of the United States is actually more like a giant baby that is swollen and greasy. Their high-level thinking and methods are still based on the most primitive plunder and zero-sum game.
It is unlikely to expect them to learn to cooperate and win-win.
Since the United States does not want to cooperate, let other countries use advanced weapons to beat it and beg for cooperation. At that time, the giant companies will naturally achieve the goal of being the fishermen and profiting easily.
"V, this matter will be left to you."
Li Ang made a decision to hand over the affairs of the global conference to V. V's trick of driving away the wolf and swallowing the tiger can be regarded as learning the essence of his own work.
"Yes!"
V nodded solemnly. He had anticipated the result. Either the United States would give in and take the initiative to come and be a dog.
Or the United States would be hard to the end, and even be furious and send troops to attack the Universal Corporation, but this would just fulfill V's wishes.
After all, at that time, the giant companies would be able to legitimately take down the top leaders of the United States and arrange their own staff to move into the presidential palace.
Other countries on Earth will not say anything. In short, no matter what choice America makes next, the winner is the Universal Corporation.
After discussing the convening of the global conference and the relevant technology assistance plan, Leon discussed the issue of subduing the Decepticons.
At this time, Megatron has slowly recovered from his serious injury, and Starscream is also actively cooperating with the work of the giant company to recruit and appease the surrendered Decepticons.
It’s just that the specific arrangement plan has not been officially determined.
"I propose to send all these Decepticons to the rear area, let them cooperate with the scientific research department to conduct technical research, and provide them with some information and materials to let them understand their own situation."
At this time, Ott Cunningham, the head of the scientific research department of the giant company, said that as the head of the scientific research department, she is still quite curious about the technology points of the "Transformers" universe.
For example, some energy conversion, cable transmission efficiency and other issues seem to be further optimized in Transformers.
Li Ang nodded and threw the group of Decepticons to the Wanjie base. On the territory of the giant enterprise, these Decepticons had no one to rely on and could only obey the arrangement of the giant enterprise and serve as experimental materials.
"Okay, I'll leave this matter to you. Try to keep in touch with the Decepticons."
Li Ang mentioned this sentence specifically to ask Otto to be "gentle" and not treat these Decepticons as guinea pigs. The current Decepticons are a force worth uniting and using.
"Understood!"
Otto quickly understood what his boss Li Ang meant and nodded in response.
At this point, Li Ang announced the adjournment of the meeting and asked the staff to go and execute the order. The first phase of the integration mission of "Transformers" has ended.
Now it is time to implement the second phase of the plan, take down the leadership module, capture Megatronus, unite with the Cybertronians, and prepare to charge against the Creator civilization!
...
...
At this moment, in a desert area far away in Egypt, an ancient temple that has been abandoned for a long time ushered in a group of special spectators.
They were a sightseeing group consisting of Sam, the male protagonist of "Transformers 2", and three Autobots.
Amidst the exclamations, Sam curiously looked at the internal structure of the temple, and beside him, the Autobot scout Bumblebee was vigilantly looking around the rear, guarding against the Decepticon's surprise attack.
At this moment, they knew nothing about what was happening in the outside world. It had been four hours since the Universal Corporation came to Earth, and the Decepticons on Earth had already surrendered to the Corporation.
No one would chase them now.
"It's safe here for the time being, we have to move quickly, lest Red Spider bring people here to cause trouble again!"
Bumblebee said nervously.
They came here to find the leadership module, which is the key to open the star blasting system.
Sam learned the coordinate information of the leadership module through a series of coincidences, and with the help of the ancient Transformer "Skyfire", he was teleported here.
Since Skyfire betrayed Megatronus and hooked up with the six Primes to seal the former boss, he has been surviving until now, and now he also serves as Sam's guide NPC.
For Sam, the leader of the Autobots, Optimus Prime, has been beaten to death by the Decepticons. The information and energy in the leadership module can revive him.
Sam must find the leadership module as soon as possible, revive Optimus Prime, and let it lead other Autobots to turn the tide and defeat Megatronus.
After all, just before Sam went to this desert temple, Megatronus had already started sending global broadcasts to find his own traces.
Whether it is to save human civilization or to keep himself alive, Sam can only pin his hopes on the leadership module and revive Optimus Prime.
However, the scene inside the temple disappointed Sam, because here, he did not see any remains of the Primes, nor did he see any lost leadership modules.
The earliest archaeologists who visited the temple had already emptied the temple, leaving only insignificant murals, but what use are the murals.
"We are late, there is nothing here."
Sam shook his head in frustration. If he went back empty-handed, then he and Optimus Prime would be doomed!
"Maybe there is a hidden switch here, or a secret passage leading to the underground. Anyway, we are definitely in the right place."
Bumblebee comforted Sam, and then began to carefully look for suspicious traces.
If there was no tomb of the Prime or traces of the leadership module here, it would be impossible for the fire to teleport them here.
"I hope so!"
Like Bumblebee, Sam paced in the temple, wondering where the switch inside the temple would be hidden.
But Sam was so anxious at this moment that he wanted to take the leadership module away immediately to save Optimus Prime. He really had no clue.
The archaeologists who came before them had already searched the temple thoroughly, even the floor was flat.
Just as Bumblebee and Sam were busy looking for the internal switch, the two brothers Little Red and Little Green began to quarrel out of habit.
"Why is it that Red Spider is chasing us this time? Where is Megatron? I heard that he fell into the sea and died. Is it true?" Little Red asked.
"That guy is an indestructible cockroach. With Red Spider and Shockwave, they might have resurrected him long ago. What? Are you scared?"
Green mocked Red: "I knew you were a coward, a cowardly follower."
"Bullshit!"
Red broke through Red's defense in a second and pushed Green away: "I'm afraid of staring at your stupid ugly face every day!"
As soon as the voice fell, Green's anger value also rose, and he cursed: "You idiot, we are twins from the same mother, do you think you are the only one who looks good?"
Bumblebee and Sam were busy looking for the switch here, but Red and Green started to fight as usual. The two fought in chaos inside the temple, and even Bumblebee couldn't persuade them.
Seeing this, Bumblebee had to pick up the two funny guys and throw them out of the temple to avoid causing trouble for himself here.
After the temple returned to normal, Sam returned to the mural. At this moment, he suddenly found that the mural in front of him had cracked due to the tossing of Little Red and Little Green.
It seemed that there was a hidden layer inside!
"New discovery!!"
Sam was overjoyed and immediately called everyone.
Bumblebee and Little Red and Little Green heard the noise and immediately surrounded them. Then they forcibly pulled out the layer. As expected, there was a part of rusty metal.
And on the metal, there were Transformers words engraved!
"Yes, all right! I have seen these symbols. This is the tomb of the Supreme."
Sam was very excited and immediately asked Bumblebee to shoot through the murals to show the true face of the temple.
"Back off, be careful."
After that, Bumblebee pulled out a machine gun and opened fire, shooting down all the murals in front of him. Only a dark and gloomy hole appeared in front of everyone.
The rotten smell and indescribable chill suddenly hit him, but Sam was not afraid at all. He could not hide his excitement and went into the cave to find the purpose of this trip.
Not long after, he saw six Primordial Supremes in different postures. They were the Transformers of the Cybertron star ancestors.
More than 17,000 years ago, these six Supreme Apostles fought fiercely with Megatronus to protect the stars in the solar system and the life on Earth.
But Megatronus with full mana and full status was too powerful. Even in a disadvantageous situation of one against six, with the backstab of the inner ghost "Skyfire", it could still firmly gain the upper hand.
As a last resort, the six Supremes could only seal Megatronus in the sarcophagus at the cost of their own lives, and hid the key to activate the Star Harvester.
Until today, nearly 20,000 years later, under Sam's pursuit, the long-dead Supremes were able to see the light of day again, but at this moment, they have become a ghost.
When he saw the First Supreme, Sam, who was anxious to resurrect Optimus Prime, had no time to think about this tragic historical event. He just wanted to get the leadership module as soon as possible.
The leadership module key is a crescent-shaped object with two sharp ends and an arc, and its length is about half of a human arm.
At this time, the leadership module was quietly floating in the hands of one of the First Supremes.
"Finally found it!"
Sam was so excited that he subconsciously held his breath, walked forward slowly, and gently held up the slender key.
But as soon as his fingers touched the leadership module, the object in his hand turned into a pool of ash, as if the object he just touched was just a false illusion.
Instantly, Sam's smile froze. He couldn't believe that the leadership module he had finally found with so much difficulty had disappeared out of thin air!
"No... no, how could this happen!"
At this moment, Sam's mood was like a roller coaster, falling from the peak to the bottom in an instant.
Only by getting the leadership module can he successfully resurrect Optimus Prime and let the Autobots fight against the Decepticons led by Megatron.
But now, without the leadership module, the end waiting for him is to be captured by Megatron, have his brain cut open and thrown into the formalin liquid!
Sam's desperate expression and Bumblebee's disappointment were all seen by the AI micro reconnaissance aircraft of the giant enterprise at this moment, and the picture was transmitted back to the headquarters of the Wanjie Base.
Seeing the leadership module in Sam's hand disappear, Leon reacted immediately, what on earth was going on.
It turns out that the six Supremes set up a special switch to prevent the leadership module from falling into the hands of the enemy again.
It is an extremely strange energy technology that can give the leadership module both virtual and real states.
When the leadership module falls into the hands of others, it will present an elusive virtual state, and only when the conditions are right and the destined person is loaded, will the real state be loaded.
This is like downloading a small movie. Even if it has not been downloaded yet, as long as it enters the download task state, a section of occupied space will appear in the storage displayed in the background.
On the surface, the space has been occupied, but in fact it is not completely occupied.
According to the original plot of the movie "Transformers 2", after Sam collected the ashes of the leadership module, he was attacked and knocked unconscious by the Decepticons who rushed over.
During this period, the six Supremes who had long died, through the method of "dreaming", made Sam wake up and restored the leadership module.
And Sam also successfully resurrected Optimus Prime.
Although the method of dreaming seems a bit outrageous, it is also a foreshadowing detail.
Because Sam had been in contact with the fragments of the All-Spark, the energy and information of the fragments existed in his brain.
Although the body of the First Supreme had long since perished, the residual energy consciousness had not completely disappeared. Through the energy information in Sam's brain, they allowed the other party to smoothly inherit the leadership module.
After all, these six Supremes were members of the 13 Apostles of Yuanshi Tianzun, and they were also the ancestors of the Cybertronians. It was not surprising that they knew some "gongfa" in terms of mental power.
After all, their big brother Zhen Tianzun was even more outrageous. He could even control chaotic matter such as "entropy" and use it as a burning technique. He would destroy whatever he saw.
They used this "spiritual projection" method to communicate with Sam for a sentence or two, which was barely reasonable.
Seeing this, Leon decided to follow the development of the original plot, let Red Spider and Shockwave lead the Decepticons, play the role of villains, and let the ghost Supreme Lao Deng hand over the key to Sam.
After all, it is unlikely to successfully restore the leadership module by forcibly taking away the key with the current technological capabilities of the Universal Corporation.
It's better to follow the established route.
"Let Starscream and Shockwave go. Remember, don't really snatch the key. Let Sam revive Optimus Prime first, and then take the leadership module."
Leon faced the hard light screen and gave an order to V, who was also observing the situation on the front line.
"Yes!"
V nodded in response, and then immediately sent someone to notify Starscream and Shockwave to come out to work. They should come out to play their villain roles.
After a while, the Decepticons who received the order from the Universal Corporation immediately began to rush to the designated area under the reorganization of Starscream and Shockwave.
Not long ago, Starscream, Shockwave and other Decepticon members saw the civilized species and technological miracles from the universe in Ideal City.
The shocking megastructures, the hundreds-meter-high Kaiju, the AI Knights of the Prometheus Legion, the soldiers of various races of the Star Alliance, the indescribable Alpha monsters...
After learning about the huge size of the Universe Corporation, Starscream immediately determined to develop a professional thug career in the corporation. This is the best stage to show his ability!
And Megatron, who is half-crippled and recovering, and Shockwave also expressed no objection.
They fled Cybertron to find a new home and to find the Allspark to start a new business. Now they can have a meal under the giant corporation. This ending is not bad.
So after learning that they have a job to do, or to bully their old rivals Bumblebee and Sam and others, the Decepticon members rushed to the target location while screaming.
They may not have the confidence and confidence to beat Megatronus, but if they bully the Autobots and the protagonists, they are too familiar with it!
This is a completely professional job for the Decepticons.
