Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 1615
Chapter 1615: Another Benefit
Shen Yuanbao sneered, “Is there be such a stupid mega corporation that enjoys putting layers of shackles on itself?”
“There will be,” Meng Chao said confidently.
“If the nine mega corporations all have two to three Deity Realm warriors and there are several peak Heaven Realm warriors who are lining up to break through to the Deity Realm, their main businesses are developing well, and most of the shares of the corporation are controlled by the same family, then this family is miraculously united. As the saying goes, ‘when brothers are united, their strength will cut through gold.’
“If that’s the case, then I really don’t have much confidence in persuading such mega corporations to transform.
“However, let’s say, a mega corporation only has one seriously-injured Deity Realm warrior overseeing it who has fallen from his peak, he could die at any time. The talent echelon of this mega corporation is obviously insufficient. There are very few fighters below the Deity Realm who are at the peak of the Heaven Realm. Although the majority of the corporation’s shares are controlled by the same family, the members of the family are all cunning and scheming against each other. In addition, its main business involves the most sensitive strategic resource field. It has long become the target of public criticism and is surrounded by wolves.
“If light of the situation, what’s the reason for this mega corporation not to find new allies, new ways out, and a new business model?”
Shen Yuanbao’s face darkened.
His wound was hurting again.
He swallowed the blood that was gushing into his throat, leaving only a cold, bloody taste in his mouth.
“Oh, right, there’s also the Blood Alliance.”
…
Meng Chao patted his head and said, “There are also sinister and cunning members of the Blood Alliance who are hiding in this mega corporation. Once the Deity Realm warrior falls, they will immediately take over the corporation and control it.
“When that happens, this corporation will be completely reduced to a tool for the Blood Alliance to stir up trouble. In the end, it will still be unable to escape the fate of decline or even destruction!”
Shen Yuanbao gritted his teeth. Sparks flew between his teeth, almost igniting the blood in his mouth.
“One more thing. If the nine mega corporations and the Azure Alliance really can’t reach an agreement and start an all-out war, the Azure Alliance won’t be able to split their forces into nine and attack the nine mega corporations at the same time.”
Meng Chao continued. “‘It’s better to break one finger than to hurt ten fingers.’ The most practical strategy is to gather all of their strength and attack the weakest of the nine mega corporations. As long as we destroy one of them first and break the myth of the mega corporations’ invincibility, there will naturally be more people on the Azure Alliance’s side.
“Senior Shen, which of the nine mega corporations seems to be the weakest, most chaotic, and easiest to deal with at this critical moment?
“You might as well think about it again. When this ‘weakest, most chaotic, and easiest to deal with’ mega corporation is attacked by the Azure Alliance from all fronts, will the other eight mega corporation be sincere and spare no effort to save this unlucky guy?
“Or will they treat this unlucky guy as cannon fodder and push him out to fight a war of attrition with the Azure Alliance? When both the unlucky guy and the Azure Alliance suffer heavy losses, will they sit back and reap the benefits?”
Shen Yuanbao took a deep breath.
The temperature in the infirmary was between twenty-five to twenty-seven degrees, which was the most comfortable temperature for the human body.
Despite that, the old Deity Realm warrior still could not stop the cold sweat from seeping out of his forehead.
Meng Chao smiled and calmly dangled a carrot in front of him. “Besides, there are also great benefits to working with me aside from avoiding the disadvantages!”
Shen Yuanbao could no longer hold back and sneered. “Oh, there are actually benefits?”
“Of course there are benefits.”
Meng Chao pointed to the north and said, “North of Monster Mountain Range, in the middle and lower reaches of the Raging Tiger River is a golden land of treasure, which the locals call ‘Picturesque Orchid Lake.’ It’s vast and lush with a large population. It contains natural treasures and infinite business opportunities.
“Although it hasn’t undergone a scientific census, a rough calculation shows that the local population is at least over a hundred million, or even two to three times the population of Dragon City.
“Moreover, the locals have not been baptized by modern civilization or impacted by large-scale industrial production. In other words, it is a clear blue ocean market that needs to be developed urgently. Small commodities with extremely low costs can be found everywhere in Dragon City. It’s possible to sell them at a high price there, or in exchange for a lot of resources, or to buy a few strong mercenaries.
“I believe that, as the tentacles of the Dragon City civilization gradually extended beyond Monster Mountain Range, they also captured some local natives known as the ‘rat people.’ Through the rat people’s mouths, they partly understood the richness and mystery of the land. The nine mega corporations have long been interested in Picturesque Orchid Lake.
“What I want to say is that the rat people don’t comprehend the panorama and the enormous value of the local market in their civilization, the Turan Civilization.
“On the other hand, the locals who call themselves the ‘Turan’ are not to be trifled with. Although they don’t have Dragon City’s advanced technology and steel torrent on the surface, they are equipped with a special armor. It is more advanced than Dragon City’s power armor to a certain extent.
“Let me put it this way. You can imagine the Turan people as humanoid monsters with a basic civilization and a considerable level of intelligence.
“Do you think that you can open such a market with just your military power?
“Even if you can, what price will you have to pay?”
Shen Yuanbao thought about it quickly and understood what Meng Chao meant.
“You can open up this market without bloodshed?” he asked.
“That’s right.”
Meng Chao threw out his trump card. “I have a way to distribute Universe Corporation’s products unimpeded in Picturesque Orchid Lake.”
Shen Yuanbao fell silent.
“You don’t believe me?”
Meng Chao laughed, “Alright, even if you don’t believe that I have a way to distribute Universe Corporation’s products unimpeded in Picturesque Orchid Lake, do you believe that I have a way to prevent Universe Corporation’s products, or any mega corporation’s products, from being sold in that land?
“I have my ways. Turn the products of any mega corporation into the sacrifices for the devil? The excrement of toads? The bait for a curse?
“I have a way to make the products of any mega corporation stuck in the mud when they develop their market in Picturesque Orchid Lake. Their operating costs will rise by at least 100%.”
Shen Yuanbao believed that.
One year ago, when Meng Chao left Dragon City, he had at most been a Heaven Realm fighter in the Five-star Spirit Gaze Realm and the Six-star Spirit Armor Realm.
In just one year, he had returned to Dragon City as a Deity Realm fighter.
Moreover, even Shen Yuanbao could not tell how advanced he was.
That meant he was definitely not a “beginner Deity Realm fighter.”
Normally, no matter how fast one’s cultivation speed was, it would be impossible for one to advance rapidly like that.
Meng Chao must have had some fortuitous encounter in Picturesque Orchid Lake, befriended the local powerhouses, and obtained the ability to call the wind and summon the rain in the middle and lower reaches of the Raging Tiger River!
