Chapter 691: Conquering People with Virtue
Liu Kang wanted to say something after hearing what George said, but looking at those strong bodyguards, he opened his mouth but lowered his head dejectedly.
"I just want to save my mother. I will still work in the lab. I will come back once her treatment is completed. I will only go there regularly when she needs treatment..."
"Haha, who do you think I am? If you just won the travel qualification, it doesn't matter. You can't stay there for long anyway. But what if you rely on the right of settlement and stay there and don't come back? Who can I ask for the loss of the laboratory? Can I arrange for someone to go to Penglai to capture you and bring you back?"
George laughed, his face full of sarcasm.
What nonsense!
This laboratory is of vital importance to him, as are many of the research carried out within it, so every researcher is under his close watch!
"But Umbrella is willing to pay the termination fee! They value me so much, aren't you afraid of offending Umbrella?"
Seeing this, Liu Kang felt somewhat desperate and could only resort to the greatest support he could rely on at the moment.
"Important you? What a stupid thing you are thinking!"
George seemed to have heard some funny joke.
"Umbrella's willingness to pay the penalty is just a normal business headhunting behavior, nothing more. Penglai's settlement rights have a million quota! If you don't go, will they keep begging you? Haha..."
The other researchers nearby also felt a sense of grief at this moment, but they did not dare to speak out.
At the same time, some people were jealous of Liu Kang for being able to obtain the right to settle down and receive high-level treatment.
Why can he do that!
How long has he been in the lab? Although I heard that he is quite capable, he is just a new guy!
After George laughed for a while, his face gradually turned cold and he said with a sarcastic expression:
"Umbrella, I'm so scared! I admit that Umbrella is indeed the strongest in the world, and I am indeed afraid! But do you think they have nothing to do? Can they still control you? Da Piaoliang had so many dogs roaming around, do you have to be responsible for them all? Ridiculous!"
Then he waved to the bodyguard behind him.
"Take him away and let him face the reality! Haha, you're threatening me with Umbrella. I hate threats the most! Do you really think Umbrella will come to pick you up in a mecha? You're so naive..."
As soon as George finished speaking, the whole laboratory suddenly shook, making everyone unsteady on their feet.
There seemed to be some dust falling on the ceiling.
A thought came to everyone's mind: what's going on?
Earthquake?
But it stopped again after a while. What happened?
Just when everyone was a little confused, there was a series of knocks on the laboratory door .
Because of the importance of what this laboratory is researching, the door is a standard explosion-proof door and can serve as a safe room.
Normal communication between the outside and the inside cannot be accomplished by 'knocking on the door'.
Because it's so thick, you can't hear anything at all, even if you slap it, there's no effect.
But at this moment, there was a very rhythmic 'knock on the door' sound!
Moreover, the noise of 'knocking on the door' was so loud that one could clearly feel the door vibrating.
Because they were going to give a lecture, this group of people were not in the laboratory, but were standing in the discussion room at the door. Through the glass on the wall, they could clearly see the shaking of the door outside.
After knocking three times, it seemed to start knocking regularly again.
This made everyone swallow their saliva, and then they displayed the external surveillance footage.
I saw a gorgeous and cool black mecha squatting at the door of the laboratory and knocking politely with its "finger".
This made George's eyes widen and he wanted to slap his mouth.
What the hell!
Are you really going to drive a mecha to pick people up?
Oh shit!
This is San Francisco?
Why did you come here without saying a word?
Are you kidding me?
What a joke!
It can be clearly seen that two large and beautiful patrol cars have also arrived nearby.
But the agents inside didn't even dare to get close and just stood by to maintain order.
George and the lab director looked at each other in bewilderment, but finally went over to open the door, forced out a smile uglier than crying, looked up at the mecha and asked politely,
"What can I do for you?"
The mecha's external speaker also spoke politely, without any oppression or arrogance, and seemed quite approachable.
"Hello, here's the thing. There's a man named Liu Kang in our Penglai settlement rights program who said he works in your laboratory. He also expressed his desire to obtain settlement rights to treat his mother.
"Because he has obtained the top talent qualification, and from his simple introduction, I can tell that he might encounter some troubles, so I came here to inquire about the situation. Don't worry, I entered the country legally this time, and I just came here to show my goodwill. Regardless of whether Liu Kang's liquidated damages are reasonable or not, our company will pay them, whether it's US dollars or credit points. May I ask what your company's remittance account is..."
His humble attitude and kind words attracted a lot of onlookers nearby, some of whom were filming videos with their mobile phones.
After Umbrella signed the agreement with Da Piaoliang, a mecha completed some registration procedures for the aircraft at Da Piaoliang. This time, it also reported a few minutes in advance. Because it was too fast, it arrived here and greeted politely without much reaction time...
And George looked up at the 'kind' mecha and listened to the polite remarks.
But I almost cried, and I kept saying "you you" and "I" for a long time but no words came out.
Seeing that George didn't say anything, the mecha's external speaker started talking again.
"We have also reviewed the contract between Liu Kang and your company. As long as we pay him in full, his stay or departure is completely reasonable and legal. Your company is not trying to force our Penglai talent to stay, right?"
As he said this, the green light from the mecha's eyes began to turn yellow.
"We at Umbrella have always valued peace and followed the rules. The reason we developed a small amount of military force is just to allow everyone to talk to us calmly and reasonably. You, should not be unreasonable..."
The yellow light switched to red again.
"Of course! We are a reasonable company! We just learned that Liu Kang was leaving soon, so we held a farewell party for him. Yes, a farewell party! After all, we have been colleagues for such a long time, isn't this reasonable?"
"Of course! But I hope your company can ensure his health and safety, and remind him that his mother's treatment is scheduled for seven days later. The ticket stub has been sent to his email, and he can go directly to the Umbrella Airlines counter to pick up the ticket. Then, I won't disturb your farewell party..."
As he finished speaking, the mecha saluted politely.
"I'm sorry. We may have damaged the road due to our high speed when landing. However, our company will pay for the damage. We apologize for the inconvenience. Bye..."
After saying that, the mecha jumped into the air, turned into a fighter plane in the air, and quickly broke through the air!
Yes, Umbrella does have only three mechas on display right now, but with the maximum speed of these mechas exceeding Mach 20, they can reach anywhere in the world quickly!
The last time the mecha made its debut, Da Piaoliang didn't even have time to react before it completed a three-sided killing spree.
It really doesn't take much energy to go out once.
Energy loss? Material fatigue loss?
If the materials do not have self-repair properties, then the high-frequency movement and deformation of the mecha will become meaningless.
Even fighter planes have to be inspected every time they are deployed. Since mechas have come into being, they naturally have to overcome many problems...
