Chapter 45: Who Is Acting?!
“One more thing, she had used this sentence. Do you know which one I’m talking about? She said, ‘That’s great, I’m not alone.’ Through our screens, it’s just another campy line. But face-to-face with Raymond, it hits differently. He has experienced a level of loneliness that no one else in the world has.
“I can’t even begin to put it in words. We have to be there to understand it.
“This is precisely why Raymond dove deep into books and the cycle of inventing and discovery to numb himself. Only he would understand the weight of her words. “If you don’t believe me, you can find a hypnotist and let you experience Raymond’s feelings. And let the cherry on top be a beautiful woman who tells you that it’s great that I’m not alone.”
“Oh my G.o.d! I know exactly how that feels. She just set off a nuke in Raymond’s ears!”
“Gadot is awesome! She must have done a lot of homework for this!”
“If only it wasn’t Raymond in front of Gadot!”
“I’m sobbing like a baby! I totally get it now!”
“Humans are sociable creatures. Your a.n.a.lysis is spot-on!”
…
Raymond had no other plans. He only needed to take advantage of the situation.
What did he want now?
Raymond did not say anything. He grabbed Gayle Gadot and pulled her into his arms.
Gayle Gadot did not resist at all. She embraced Raymond’s waist tightly, feeling his strong heartbeat, and sobbed softly.
“You’ve been so strong, it’s okay now!”
Raymond said in a low voice and patted Gayle Gadot’s back gently.
At that moment, Gayle Gadot seemed to have fallen into character.
She suddenly burst into tears.
“Wu Wu Wu! They… They all disappeared! Wa!”
At that moment, Gayle Gadot no longer paid attention to her image.
Tears flowed down her face.
“I thought… I thought… Wa!”
Gail Gadore sobbed and choked.
She seemingly poured her heart out to Raymond, telling him of her so-called experiences since the so-called disappearance of mankind.
It was as if she had suffered so much and was releasing her pent-up frustrations like an open faucet.
“It’s okay, it’s okay! I’m still here!”
Raymond continued to pat Gayle Gadot’s back gently.
His eyes began to moisten unknowingly.
Although he had learned the truth, his emotions over the past few days had been kept in a tightly sealed jar.
At that moment, he did not plan to hide it.
Releasing it was not a bad thing for him.
In the international live broadcast room.
The atmosphere in the live broadcast room was a little strange.
There was not a single bullet screen.
They seemed to have been moved. Not a single person said that Raymond was not worthy of Gayle Gadot.
They just watched quietly.
Only when the two of them separated did he regain his vitality.
“I feel like crying for no reason!”
“I suddenly feel sorry for Raymond. Was I wrong to take joy in his past antics?”
“I’ll have to submit to her acting skills. I won’t watch this year’s Oscar if Gadot isn’t a nominee!”
“I never heard of either of these two before, but at this moment, there is no sense of dissonance at all when they hug each other. This is simply invincible!”
“No! No! No! I admit that I was touched just now, but Gadot is mine! Raymond, that guy, is not worthy of Gadot!”
“Huh? Are you worthy? You’re still thinking about the Raymond from the slums! Wake up, the current Raymond is probably the world’s most popular bachelor right now!”
“Shut up! I’m so disgusted!”
“Right! Raymond is no longer someone you can slander! Even if you have his superpower, can you design and improve the engine? Can you calculate the speed of the universe? Do you know how to program artificial intelligence? You… What qualifications do you have?”
“Don’t look down on anyone with talent!”
“I’m in love! I really hope that they can be together!”
“Those trying to s.h.i.+p them, just get lost… It’s annoying!”
…
The old man looked at Gayle Gadot being embraced by Raymond on the screen, and a hint of discontent appeared on his face.
Originally, he would have taken Gail Gador for himself.
But.
What was gratifying was that arranging for Gayle Gadot to go had undoubtedly been the right choice.
“I hope you can do well, or else Raymond and you will have to meet G.o.d…”
Muttering, the old man turned off the screen and closed his eyes to rest.
At the same time, several higher-ups of Ross Financial Group looked at the screen carefully.
They were not looking at Raymond and Gorgado hugging.
They were looking at a blueprint.
That’s right, it was the blueprint of the nano-neutrino Battery.
Many viewers thought that these cameras were controlled by the program team.
In fact, the program team had absolutely no control.
As long as more than half of the financial groups spoke, the program team could even ascend to heaven on the spot.
It was not difficult to drop one immediately.
At that moment, the Ross Consortium had control over what they wanted.
“Quick, activate all the cameras in the vicinity. We must get the most detailed image of the blueprint and parameters!”
“As long as we get this data, our Ross consortium might be able to climb to the first place!”
“As long as we get it in place, everyone’s stock can be doubled again!”
The higher-ups kept cheering.
Meanwhile, the people beneath them were also a.n.a.lyzing crazily.
Although this blueprint was hand-drawn by Raymond, it had become a treasure at this moment.
Even if they spent tens of billions of dollars, Ross Financial Group would not share it with others.
A monopoly was the foundation of building a financial group.
“Immediately arrange a few of the energy laboratories under us to start researching immediately!”
“The people in the program team will pay any price to get a neutrino battery installed on a robot!”
“Immediately transfer the special talents from Apple, Tesla, and Siemens. We must master this technology in the shortest time possible!”
“The initial budget of 5 billion is not enough. Tell me at any time!”
“We must keep it a secret!”
“We must not let the people from other consortia know that we have this technology.”
“If there is an accident, announce to the public that we were researching engine technology…”
The leader issued many orders in one breath.
However, he was met with a retort from the professor below.
“Boss, we can’t see one-tenth of the blueprint, so we can’t study it!”
The leader had originally been in high spirits, but the sudden cold water sent a chill down his spine.
Then.
He shouted, “Isn’t it just one-tenth? Can’t you guys figure it out yourself! Do you know how to fill in the blanks? It’s practically complete, but you can’t handle the remaining one-tenth? Are your brains full of pus?”
“Boss…”
“Don’t say anything else! Can you do it?”
“I’ll definitely complete the task!”
The professor gritted his teeth and gave an impossible answer, then left.
He could not stay in Ross Financial Group anymore.
If there were no follow-up blueprints, he would not be able to figure out the structure of this nano-battery.
Some things were so special that a single action could affect the entire process.
That’s what the nanocells were made of.
