Chapter 114: Chapter 114 Mercenary
After returning to the company building,
Lin Lee started searching for the separate island's for his company headquarters.
After searching for a while,
Lin Lee found the ideal island; it has a huge 4 km island in the middle and a 2 km wide ring strap around it.
Lin Lee planned to manufacture headquarters and other main buildings on the middle island, the ports, and other outlets on the strap around it. He will also modify the strap into a tourist spot for outside visitors.
After deciding on the island, Lin Lee bought it by paying more than $600 million, and then he used his nanobots to construct the island.
...
Six months passed.
Dao Island, located near the edge of the East Pacific Ocean,
Dao Group officially held the ceremony for the successful opening of the Dao headquarters.
A lot of renowned figures were invited to the ceremony. Now that Dao Corporation is one of the top companies in the world,
Lin Lee, standing inside the banquet hall, looking at the preparation and venue around, also saw the guest attending the ceremony, and Tang Xin was also invited; she also attended the ceremony.
"Today is your birthday; I will give you a gift that you won't forget." Lin Lee muttered with a smile, looking at Tang Xin, wearing a white and yellow dress, standing alone near a corner, looking at everything around him a little nervously.
"Xin, are you also invited?" Lin Lee asked calmly, walked toward her,
Tang Xin was startled and turned around, looking at Lin Lee standing behind her wearing a black suit. She was surprised by his appearance, and then her nervousness disappeared a little when she saw someone familiar.
"You are also invited." Tang Xin smiled, trotted beside him, and then whispered, "Thankfully, you are here; I was so nervous and embarrassed standing alone here."
Lin Lee smiled and then said, "I received a special notification; they said I was invited as a special lucky player."
"Really, me also." Tang Xin hurriedly replied, adjusted her glasses, looked around, and said, "It's the first time I've visited such a ceremony; it really is a unique and different experience; everything is so luxurious."
Lin Lee turned and glanced at her, looking at her face, which had become a lot more radiant and a little more mature than a few months ago.
'No matter how mature she looks, she will always be a little girl in my mind.' Lin Lee thought, then silently heard her non-stop comments about the venue.
Instantly, the stage lights turned on, and John was standing on the podium. "Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for attending our company ceremony. We have successfully opened the headquarters of our company, which is the base of our successful future."
After giving a summarized speech, John then glanced at Lin Lee and Tang Xin, then turned and glanced at the audience and spoke.
"Upon the chairman's instruction, we have decided to give rewards to those who attended the ceremony." John then announced, and then he added mysteriously, "But the rewards you are going to receive depend on your own luck."
All the audience members below were surprised; some guests were intrigued, looking at the podium.
Tang Xin's eyes brightened as she looked at the stage. She whispered, "The company is giving rewards; they must be extremely expensive items."
Lin Lee nodded with a smile. Looking at the direction of the stage, instantly two people appeared with a round bowl filled with small cards.
"Please pick the card; each person can pick only one card." John then said,
The audience started picking up the cards with anticipation. Tang Xin and Lin Lee also picked up cards.
"Now open the cards and see what you have." John then said excitedly,
All the audience members below started opening their cards with anticipation, including Tang Xin.
Lin Lee opened his own card, looking at the yacht written above, then turned and glanced at the wide eyes of Tang Xin and her wide, opened mouth.
Seeing CEO Job written on the card, there is also a note below: if he or she doesn't want to join as CEO, then she will be awarded 10% shares.
Tang Xin gulped, looking around. Seeing Lin Lee looking at her, she hesitated and then said, "I think they are pranking."
Lin Lee smiled, looking at her nervous and hesitant expression, then shook his head and said, "Don't worry, they won't lie, or it will ruin their business credibility.'
Tang Xin then hesitated and said, "There is a job offer on my card. Can a job also be a reward?" She showed her card.
Lin Lee then glanced at her card and said playfully, "Congratulations; you are now a CEO."
"You are making fun of me now. Who would believe it? Also, I don't know any company management. How can I be a CEO?" Tang Xin asked in surprise,
Lin Lee nodded and then pointed at her card and said, "Look carefully; they have written that if you don't want the CEO, you can reject and get 10% shares."
"Oh," Tang Xin startled, glanced at the note below thoughtfully.
'Indeed, there is such a note, but who will reward 10% of the shares in the trillion-dollar company? I can't simply believe it.' She thought to herself.
Then, Tang Xin heard the whispers of the audience around them; they all believed the rewards, and her heartbeat started speeding up.
'Should I accept the job offer or reject it? Both ways I will earn, I can't accept the CEO job; I will choose 10% shares instead of it.' Tang Xin thought and decided for herself,
After visiting the main company office, Tang Xin met with John and other general managers and received the job offer, but after thinking for a while, she decided to reject the proposal.
She was rewarded with the 10% shares; instead, she signed the share transfer agreement and became the owner of 100 billions; all the other guests were also shocked upon seeing the list of winners and their rewards. Soon, the news became a sensation around the world because no one had awarded 10% of the 100 billion shares.
...
A few days later,
Lin Lee glanced at the satellite coverage around the globe, as well as other probes progressing toward the other celestial bodies around the blue planet. His mining machine started working on nearby meteors.
Such technological means surprised the whole world and top countries; even some top countries, including the one he resides in, started contacting Lin Lee, offered him a lot of options, and wanted to let him share the technology.
Lin Lee rejected all their offers, which surprised and angered some countries, and sanctioned his company and banned his company products.
"Well, it's going to be fun." Lin Lee muttered. Looking at the genesis, he is encountering issues in some countries network systems, and his company products are also banned.
"Sir, it seems their greed doesn't know any bounds." John said, standing beside him,
"It's true that if humans were united and fair toward each other, then they would have left the planet and explored the star system a few decades ago; unfortunately, they fought amongst themselves and lost the potential to rise." Lin Lee nodded and replied calmly.
Then he said, looking at John, "Well, don't export our product to those countries; even if the whole world doesn't want to buy my company's products, then I won't sell them to them." After giving his instructions,
Lin Lee left the office building. On the way toward his home, a few dark vehicles instantly appeared and surrounded his car.
Boom! Boom!!
A few projectiles shot toward his vehicle from both sides, and the car body shook from both sides. Then the white smoke grenade burst, and white smoke spread through a large area.
A few people in special suits and advanced tactical weapons stepped outside those dark vehicles, aimed at his car, and progressed toward him.
Lin Lee, sitting inside his intact car, looking at everything around him speechlessly,
Time and space! Static domain!!!
Everything around him slowed down, as if frozen. Lin Lee then waved his hand; instantly, all those cars and people disappeared, and everything was restored as before, as if nothing happened.
Lin Lee then drove back toward his own apartment, looking at the details about the person who attacked him. It was the team belonging to the world's third-most powerful mercenary group.
Lin Lee smiled playfully, then shook his head. The next moment, somewhere in the deep, hilly area,
The secret base of Age Mercenary, which is the world's third-largest mercenary group, was moving around inside, and all of them were disturbed by the sudden disappearance of their team.
Instantly, a loud alarm rang through the base, their radar showing a few types of projectiles moving toward their base.
"What is this?" One of the monitoring staff was shocked, looking at the fast speed of the projectile, as if a flash of lightning,
"It's over." His expression sank, and he muttered with an extremely gloomy expression.
Boom!!!
Instantly, the whole hilly area disappeared, leaving an empty crater spanning a few miles. Everything about the mercenary group disappeared into history.
