I Have A Super USB Drive

Chapter 469: Persuasion

Yellowstone Park, Northern America, in an uninhabited area.

A building hidden amid thousands of trees stood tall. There were no villages and roads within a hundred miles of it. There were only a few intricate secret military bases, guarding this square building like bodyguards.

Here was the true core of the Earth Federation — the Federation’s Quantum Deity Laboratory and in this building was the world’s most precious thing, “Adam”.

Adam was a quantum computer but its form was very strange, like an abstract sculpture built by an artist. It was composed of large and small translucent glass-like gears as well as irregular parts. Many tassels were hanging down too, full of strange beauty.

If one day “Adam” broke down or lost its power of prediction, then within a month, the entire Earth Federation would fall apart, disintegrating like the Soviet Union in the past. There would once again be a situation where nations were separated and conquered each other. ...

Even so, on such a night, the quantum computer “Adam” suddenly started up by itself, jingling with the sound of clinking glass.

“Clink clink...”

“Clink clink...”

However, just such a small collision was comparable to the storm of a century in the eyes of the many monitoring personnel outside —

“Report, Group 14 has detected abnormal fluctuations!”

“Report, Group 10 has detected abnormal fluctuations!”

“Group 17 has also detected that the analytical curve valves of the third and sixth indexes are still rising, from an average of 30% to 102%. The eighth index’s curve has increased by 1,000%!”

“What happened?”

“It’s a curve disturbance. Adam is predicting the future of an event!”

As everyone yelled out updates in a disorganized manner, a harsh alarm blared out loudly. In an instant, the entire monitoring team was in chaos. Everyone tried to parse the strings of codes for the quantum computer’s operations, but what was shocking was that these codes were all encrypted!

“Why! Why did ‘Adam’ suddenly use encryption codes?”

“We don’t know, this phenomenon has never happened before!”

“Decipher them quickly, hurry up!”

However, it was not easy to parse the encryption codes of a quantum computer. This group of people spent every effort and used the computing power of 200 supercomputers around the world, only to barely arrive at a conclusion — if they wanted to crack Adam’s encryption codes, it would take these supercomputers three hundred years without break to crack them!

After seeing this conclusion, everyone was completely dumbfounded...

When the entire Federation’s higher-ups were in an uproar over Adam’s anomaly, Chen Chen was standing in the air at a height of a thousand meters. The wind roared, causing his clothes to flap in the wind, and below his feet was the world-famous capital of film and television.

At this moment, Chen Chen lowered his head and looked stoically at the brightly lit city under his feet.

Besides being the second-ranked city in Northern America, Los Angeles was famous for another reason — it was the place where Hollywood was located.

Since 1911, after the first film company was established in Los Angeles, the city had quickly become the world’s center for film and television, and it had also become a cultural export center in Northern America. The name Hollywood had attracted the attention of billions of people and guided the general direction of movie entertainment globally.

This was Chen Chen’s second time coming to this city.

The last time he came here, it was also for something film related. As he was sharp enough to notice that the movie Deadly Crisis: A Shocking Scheme had a strange causal connection with reality, he came to Hollywood specifically to investigate the director and crew who shot the film.

The investigation results naturally did not tell him much. This movie did not show any signs of being meddled in by mysterious forces.

Thus, Chen Chen came to a judgment at the time: some movies shot on the USB flash drive were likely to affect reality!

However, now that three years had passed, the original judgment had come true. Although the physical appearance of the characters in that movie was not the same as in reality, everything else was the same as the movie’s plot, whether in terms of name or other details as if the story of the movie was being faithfully reproduced.

Even at this time, Chen Chen had received a report that the young man named Keith had created AD-001 in his research and was now being ordered by Professor Irwin to secretly deliver the medicine to the founder of Osmond Biotech.

Chen Chen had obtained AD-001 as early as three years ago. Although the drug had not been disclosed to the public so far, it was already well known in God’s Forbidden Zone. More than a dozen family members of the Disciple Council who had been suffering from Alzheimer’s disease had even been treated and were 100% cured.

Now that this drug had been “produced” by others who would claim it as their own, of course, Chen Chen would not agree to this.

Not only Chen Chen would not agree but even the other Disciples’ families also would not agree.

At this time, Chen Chen had arrived at the headquarters of Osmond Biotech. This was a dilapidated office building with a history of at least 20 years. This building was also close to the suburbs and it was now nighttime, so the surroundings looked a little desolate.

Chen Chen landed in a free fall from a high altitude, but when he was about to reach the ground, his speed dropped suddenly. His entire body spun around, going from an upside-down position to an upright one. Then, he settled firmly on the rooftop of the office building.

All this time, no one saw this amazing scene.

A place like a rooftop was naturally deserted at usual times, not to mention that it was now late at night. Even so, Chen Chen saw that the bellows of several central air conditioners on the rooftop were still buzzing.

According to the positioning information given by Little X, Parker, the founder of Osmond, was now in his office.

Thus, Chen Chen walked directly to the stairwell on the roof and looked at the battered iron gate in front of him. Chen Chen sneered and pushed the door directly as he went in.

“Creak —!”

At once, the iron gate that had not been opened for a long time made a loud rubbing squeak as Chen Chen directly pushed it open.

When he walked down from the rooftop, Chen Chen saw that he was in a long and narrow corridor and there were offices on both sides of the corridor. Other than that, there was nothing worthy of attention.

In the row of offices on the right side of the corridor, the first one was what Chen Chen was looking for. He saw the words “Chairman and General Manager’s Office” on the signboard of the office.

Yes, Parker was not only the founder of Osmond Biotech but also the chairman of the board of directors and the general manager of the company.

To be able to continuously raise funds for a small biotechnology company until it reached its current size — although this could not be compared to a behemoth like Blacklight Biotechnology, it was already impressive. Parker must be quite talented.

Thinking of this, Chen Chen walked to the door and directly opened the wooden door of the office.

“What’s the matter, didn’t I tell you? You can solve this kind of thing by yourself!”

As the door was completely opened, Chen Chen heard a male voice coming from inside and Chen Chen’s eyes took in the scene in the office at the same time.

This office was not big although it seemed to have been formed by knocking down a wall and combining two offices into one. Still, the interior decoration was more tastefully chosen, composed of black and white. Whether it was the floor or the wall, the surfaces were all black and white, which created a unique sensation when one was standing in the space.

Opposite the door was a large mahogany writing desk. Opposite the writing desk was Parker whom Chen Chen was looking for. This was a middle-aged man with a special face. He seemed to be of part-Germanic lineage with a slim face, large bones, black hair, and brown eyes, with eyebrows parallel to his piercing eyes.

As Chen Chen opened the door and entered, the middle-aged man at the mahogany writing desk raised his head impatiently. He was just about to lose his temper, but he was taken aback when he saw Chen Chen.

“Who are you, where’s Michelle?”

“Do you mean your secretary?”

Chen Chen walked into the office as if he was familiar with the place. He looked around and said casually, “I didn’t see her at the door, maybe she’s already got off work.”

“Got off work?”

The middle-aged man became even more puzzled. He looked at Chen Chen suspiciously and asked again, “Then who are you and why are you here?”

“Me?”

Chen Chen could not help but grin. He pulled up a chair from the side and sat opposite the middle-aged man. At the same time, he smiled nastily. “I’m the boss of this company.”

“What sort of joke is this?”

The middle-aged man became furious. He picked up the phone next to him and yelled into the receiver, “Where are the security guards, what have they been doing? There’s an outsider in my office! Come over now!”

After a woman’s voice replied on the phone, the middle-aged man hung up huffily. He solemnly looked at Chen Chen. “I don’t know how you got here, but before the security guards toss you out on the street, you have half a minute to get out of my office, right now!”

“Why bother?”

Chen Chen did not feel disgruntled just because of the other party’s words. At this time, he said leisurely, “Mr. Parker, don’t get so worked up. There’s no exaggeration in what I said before. Now, let me formally introduce myself. My name is Chen Chen. You should’ve heard of me.”

“I don’t want to know who you are...”

The middle-aged man snorted coldly but before he finished speaking, he suddenly stopped and widened his eyes in an incredulous expression. “What, who did you say you are?”

Chen Chen did not answer. Instead, he spread his hands and said casually, “I know you have heard me. I don’t have to state my identity again. Mr. Parker, I’m here to make a deal with you.”

As he spoke, Chen Chen suddenly leaned forward and said in a low voice, “I want the remaining shares of Osmond owned by you as well as the management rights of your company!”

“Impossible!”

The middle-aged man immediately refused without thinking about it. At this time, there was already the sound of running footsteps approaching outside the door and it seemed that several people were coming here quickly.

After hearing this noise, the middle-aged man seemed to feel more secure and his voice became calmer. “I will not sell the shares in my hands, let alone transfer the management rights of the company I created to another person. I don’t want to know who you are, just leave now immediately, otherwise, I’ll ask security to carry you out!”

After Parker’s speech, the sound of footsteps had reached the door and at the same time, five strong men in suits rushed in.

“Get him out of here!”

Seeing the security guards who had arrived, Parker looked a little delighted and ordered at the same time.

“I’m afraid it won’t be as you wish...”

Chen Chen’s eyes gleamed with a flicker of mock regret. He snapped his fingers casually and in the next second, the five security guards who had just entered felt a stab of pain in the back of their heads as if someone had hit them hard in the back. After that, their eyes rolled over at the same time and they collapsed to the ground in unison!

This was the use of Field energy. Now that Chen Chen was able to rely on the power of Field to break through the sound barrier, the simple trick of knocking people out was even simpler.

Even so, to Parker, it was as if the young man in front of him had mastered some mysterious power. Chen Chen had just snapped his fingers and caused five people to fall to the ground at the same time!

Seeing this eerie scene, Parker could not help but gasp sharply. He could not sit still anymore and stood up with horror on his face while quickly backing away until he reached the window.

“There’s no point in escaping.”

Chen Chen leaned back in his chair and continued to persuade Parker unhurriedly. “The reason you’re unwilling to be acquired by me is that you’ve received news from Professor Irwin, right? That AD-001 was successfully developed?”

“You...” Hearing this, Parker felt as if he had been struck by a thunderbolt. He looked at Chen Chen in shock. “How could you possibly know this!”

“Of course, I’d know.”

Chen Chen waved his hand and said with a chuckle, “Not only do I know this but I also know that to prevent the newly developed AD-001 from falling into our hands, Professor Irwin specially ordered Keith to travel by road to cross 2,600 kilometers and deliver the drug to you personally. Are you imagining the endless flow of cash that will come pouring into your pockets?”

Parker opened his mouth when he heard the words and fell silent again.

Only this time, as Chen Chen exposed his secret, his original arrogant expression had wilted significantly.

“Why don’t you listen to my offer?”

Seeing that Parker did not respond, Chen Chen said directly, “I’m willing to buy all the shares in your hands at a price of one billion U.S.D. This price isn’t low. After all, after several rounds of financing, you only own 11% of the original shares.”
