Chapter 658 247: The Green Plants in Upper Origin Capital, Twenty Years a Slave [Monthly Ticket]_2
In the beginning, the greenery was only distributed in Lower Origin Capital City.
But after Upper Origin Capital was established and the top-level citizens gradually moved to Upper Origin Capital, the greenery was entirely relocated to space.
Additionally, the Association initiated a special act, declaring that all information within Upper Origin Capital is classified. Only citizens at the Fifth Level and above are eligible to access it.
Under the precise information control of the "Net," not a whisper was leaked.
The world in the eyes of citizens above the Fifth Level and the world in the eyes of the wilderness people are indeed two different worlds.
At this moment, in a quaint building within the largest central hub in Upper Origin Capital, a high-level Association meeting related to Mengdu Group is being held.
At the meeting, Mengdu Group had to disclose a large number of experimental details and was then fiercely criticized.
"Within Source Star, the opponents are primarily from the low-level towns dominated by wilderness people, and the actions were carried out only by human professionals. There has been a case of encrypted codes being breached. If we were to participate in the competition among higher civilizations in space, this would become a fatal flaw, which could bring about our destruction."
"I believe this project holds no essential meaning. Mengdu Group should not waste the wealth accumulated by leveraging the Association's resources on useless research projects."
A representative from Mengdu Group argued with reason, "This is merely our first experiment! Any new science is in its infancy. It is inherently unrefined and unreliable. We should absolutely not give up an entire course of action due to a minor setback. We acknowledge that the Legion Beast project still has many areas for improvement, but as long as we persevere, we are bound to fully mature it. If you want us to give up because of one failure, then we might as well stop the brain implantation project too!"
Eventually, the Legion Beast project was successfully preserved.
Of course, after the meeting concluded, Mengdu Group's stock price still suffered a significant hit, dropping by 2.5%.
At this time, the entire Source Star stock market was flourishing and on the rise, yet Mengdu Group uniquely "danced alone" amidst the thriving market.
Moreover, only its parent company's stock fell; its subsidiaries at all levels still saw individual increases, unrelated to each other.
The higher-ups at Mengdu Group could accept this outcome.
Ren Zhong didn't "kick them when they were down" by disclosing the battle details to the entire citizenry, keeping project-related discussions confined to the top-tier circles, resulting in a controllable situation.
At the same time, Mengdu Group also received another form of compensation.
From now on, aside from Starfire Town and the satellite towns of the Nine Major Groups' headquarters cities, all the wilderness people on Source Star will become Mengdu Group's legal "hunting targets."
The brain implantation project has received the highest level of attention, and the curtain is about to be fully drawn.
Ren Zhong is a chaotic butterfly.
Though the butterfly resides in a corner, the slight breeze caused by its wing movements is magnified through the social structure, creating continuous, profound, and vast impacts.
Ren Zhong did not know the details and content of the high-level meeting; he merely glanced at the stock market while on the spaceship to Chromium Carbon Town, making some guesses based on the market changes.
He let out a slight sigh, "Alas."
Chen Hanyu, dressed as a secretary, nervously asked beside him, "Mr. Ren, what's the matter? Are you feeling unwell?"
Ren Zhong waved his hand, "It's nothing. I was just lamenting the limits of personal power."
Chen Hanyu furrowed her brow slightly, puzzled, "Mr. Ren, your power is beyond our imagination. How can it be called limited? What you have done in Starfire Town affects the entire Source Star."
Ren Zhong was initially stunned, then smiled and nodded, "Yes. You're right."
He spent more than four months using Starfire Town as a fulcrum to leverage the entire Source Star.
Even if only a light shake, almost imperceptible to the naked eye, the influence still objectively exists.
As long as the influence is persistently amplified, then one day, he will turn leverage into overthrow.
After speaking, Ren Zhong glanced at his personal account.
A satisfied smile appeared on his face.
Yesterday, he received a 2 billion Credit Points bonus from Mengdu Group.
This morning, Purple Crystal Mining also made a gesture.
Because of his outstanding contribution in the Continent Level laboratory in recent days, which significantly advanced the development of new metal extraction technology, Purple Crystal Mining headquarters directly transferred 1 billion points to him.
