Star Dome Railway: Why Life Sighs

From now on, the future of Pinocchio and Asdena will no longer be completely controlled by the family.

Selflessness, healing, altruism——

Finally, Banxia smiled slightly: "I never thought... that one day my credit would be used by me in this way." There was a hint of self-mockery in his smile.

"Are you happy?" Ah Ha made a brilliant appearance with the familiar mask and red hair. Ban Xia said nothing, and there was no emotion in her eyes.

"Now you no longer have any obvious weaknesses, and you won't be restrained by anyone, and no one can threaten you, right?

In this way, you can live freely, without the constraints of your parents and the restrictions of those unknown guests, and you will definitely feel extremely free and happy.

And all this is because of my gift! As the God of Joy, what I am best at is bringing happiness and joy to people. Believe me, this is definitely a wonderful feeling you have never experienced! Let go of the troubles and worries of the past, and devote yourself to this beautiful world!"

"That's not something you would say."

"I seem to have read in a book of a genius club that it is foolish to evaluate the actions of a star god with the cognition of a mortal... That's what it said, you are committing this kind of stupidity now~ You think you understand Aha, but maybe you know nothing.

If you become a star god, maybe you can understand Aha a little bit better, just a little bit..."

"I become a Star God? To be honest, I don't have the confidence myself. After all, I don't even know what to do or where to go right now."

"But you actually had this thought before, didn't you? Even earlier, seven hundred years ago, when no Star God could help you, you had this thought...

You have collected the fragments of reproduction, not because you want to pursue the worm, but because you know that reproduction is the destiny that breaks away from immortality...

But how broad can the concept of a destiny that is separated from a destiny be?

Even though that bug caused a worldwide locust plague, which was a despairing disaster for mortals, wasn't it still killed by three blows from the hard stone in the end?

Then you have a bold idea. Since a destiny can be separated from another destiny, then if multiple destinies are combined together, will it also produce an unprecedentedly extensive destiny...

I wish you good luck and I'll leave you a small gift as a souvenir."

Aha's voice became smaller and smaller, and finally disappeared, leaving a white mask on the table in the bar.

Banxia picked up the mask and looked at it carefully. It had no decoration and was completely blank. It did not have any holes, but the surface looked like a human face.

Just when Banxia was about to try it on, Walter and Danheng suddenly came to the bar. He put the mask away.

“I didn’t expect you to be here. I thought the family would invite you to negotiate.” Walter said.

"Well, he did come to me, but I rejected him... Himeko should have gone to negotiate on behalf of the train crew, right? After all, the train crew contributed the most to this farce."

"Did you plan all this from the beginning and anticipate this situation to happen?"

"Well... there are some differences. At least before coming to Pinocchio, I guessed the invasion of "Order". I didn't expect that the entire Oak family and even the dream master were the remnants of "Order".

I thought they wanted to occupy Pinocchio, but I didn't expect that they were actually usurping the authority of "Order".

And [Taiyi's Dream]... I... really don't want to wake up..."

“The more troubled a person is in the past, the easier it is to become addicted to it. It’s not your fault.

So, what are you going to do next?"

"You don't have to do anything. It all depends on Old Odi's choice... Mr. Walter, if it were you who made the choice, how would you break the deadlock of the company's intrusion?"

"…Pinoconi is now facing internal and external troubles. If it were me, I would have to negotiate with the family and try to compromise and seek more opportunities for the family to survive. In short, I would try every possible way to delay it."

"Hahaha, that's a correct idea...

But he is Otti Affa, a tycoon who has been famous for several Amber Ages. I read his autobiography when I arrived at Pinocchio in advance. He is a very courageous person who always makes some amazing choices. So he will not sit still and wait for death in the face of greedy companies...

If he was determined not to let the company get Pinocchio, I think he would have made Pinocchio "listed" on the world."

"You mean to say that the old Odi will publicly offer shares to the entire universe? But this won't work either... With the size of the company, which force has the confidence to compete with the company for shares...!!!"

Walter suddenly looked at Banxia. He remembered the newly formed Abundant Force he had just seen not long ago...

"So, I want to see if Old Odi is willing to let me become a shareholder. Of course, I have no shortage of money, so buying shares is easy for me."

"But this is just your guess." Dan Heng said suddenly.

"It's not really a guess, actually. I've met old Odi himself. I injected him with truth serum, and he told the truth himself. Then I injected him with neurotoxin... I staged a charlatan show, and I killed not only him, but also the heads of other families.

What I hope to see most is that Pinocchio can be taken over in the most peaceful way. The reason why old Otto wants to go public is simply to introduce a large number of irrelevant people to complicate the situation.

After all, a company can certainly rely on its own strength and size to forcibly harvest retail investors, but if there are too many retail investors, it will have to consider face and credit issues... although they almost don't have those things.

If the company shows an overly strong desire for acquisitions and this news spreads throughout the world, it will be extremely difficult for the company to conduct business in other places in the future, and the loss of reputation will be immeasurable for the company.

Everyone knows the true face of the company, but the company itself must never show it in public... This is the hidden condition. "

Shu Weng, who was standing by, paralyzed himself: I didn’t hear anything, I didn’t hear anything…

"Then Banxia, ​​in your opinion, which side should the train crew stand on?" Dan Heng asked.

"We don't stand on either side... Danheng, I made a similar choice during my pioneering journey seven hundred years ago. At that time, I thought the world was either black or white, so I would correct things that seemed wrong. But I gradually realized that many times, this is not a simple question of right or wrong, but a complex interweaving of interests and values."

He paused, then continued: “The family or ‘harmony’ is not entirely a victim. They all have their own selfish desires and purposes, but these are not obvious.

But Pinocchio is a muddy water. No matter what choice you make, someone will jump out and blame you.

You see, Xianzhou is very smart. Maybe Jingyuan saw the clues. They didn't come even when the family invited them, so they didn't get involved in any trouble."

But for me, whether it is the family or the company, I will not let them completely control Pinocchio. You said it right before: the Pinocchio in Mikhail's dream is definitely not part of the order...

Likewise, it is not a case of "harmony," "protection"... or even "development." The complete control of power will ultimately harm innocent people.

Oh, I almost forgot, now Pinocchio has lost the power of "order", and now if he dies in a dream, he may really die in reality.

Of course, the tourists didn't know about this... They just thought it was an attack by evil forces against the Harmonious Ceremony, and that the family had failed in their duty to "protect the dream", and their credibility had plummeted.

Credit is the most powerful weapon whether it is used to control a company or a family. Guess who has the most credit and the best reputation in Pinocchio now?"

"It's you, Brother Banxia." Sanyueqi came over and said. Xing, who was pulled over by her, woke up dazedly and agreed, "Yes, it's Brother Banxia."

"Well, if you get the answer right, I'll give you a candy." Banxia took out a candy from her pocket and threw it to Sanyueqi.

Sanyueqi happily took the candy, peeled off the wrapper and stuffed it into his mouth, mumbling: "Thank you, Brother Banxia!"

"I want some too." Xing looked at the candy in Banxia's hand and swallowed his saliva greedily.

"Well, there are a lot." Banxia smiled and threw another one to Xing.

Xing took the candy excitedly and couldn't wait to put it in her mouth to taste it.

"So, Brother Banxia, ​​you want to acquire Pinoconi?" March Seven asked curiously.

"No, I've said it before, no matter which force completely controls Pinocchio, it will only create a false dream, which is definitely not what Mikhail wants to see." Banxia shook her head.

"Well, although I don't want to disturb you, can you please sit down and talk? You're not blocking the guests." Gallagher appeared and said.

"You heard what I said just now, what do you think?" Banxia asked.

"As for me... I'll finish this cup of [The Glory of Pioneering] first, and it won't be too late. One cup for each of us, everyone has a share."

……

In the corner of the Hibiscus, a short figure was standing there, constantly pressing the ornately decorated buttons. This person was Hanabi, and there was no expression on her face, as if she had lost her soul, just repeating the action mechanically.

Soon after Hanabi woke up from Taichi's dream, she came here to press these switches. She didn't stop for a moment, even though her fingers had become sore from pressing for a long time, she still persisted.

"I should have told that guy Sambo not to run so fast..." Hanabi muttered to herself, "My hands are so sore!"

But she did not give up, instead she became more determined. She told herself: "Filming of Fireworks-sama will be finished soon, hold on!"

Chapter 191 Jade

At this time, Old Aodi had already completed the first half of the transaction with the two Stone Heart Ten people in the company. While they were discussing, his men delivered a package...

"Oh~ Mr. Banxia is not coming? That's such a pity. However, I can probably guess what's inside."

Old Otto opened the package and found a contract and a letter inside.

He picked up the letter and read the contents carefully. The handwriting in the letter was neat and powerful, and the tone was firm and confident. Banxia said in the letter that he would fully support the development of the family in accordance with the agreement of the contract.

"As expected, hohohoho, this gentleman's desire for Pinocchio is no less than that of the company. Not only that, his reputation far exceeds the sum of the company and the existing Pinocchio. Alas...

Fortunately, he is not a businessman and is not willing to manage the family, otherwise with his ability, he would probably replace me..."

Old Otto looked at the contract in his hand, feeling a lot of emotions in his heart. He understood that signing this contract meant that he would lose control of Pinoconi, but it also solved a huge problem for him.

……

Soon, the Stoneheart Ten—Emerald returned to the negotiation table, but Topal, who had been with her, was gone.

"Sorry for the wait, Mr. Odi. The meeting can continue."

"Wow, you came up with a plan so quickly, Ms. Emerald? Um... where's Ms. Toppa?"

"Topa has other tasks. You will see her later. This conversation can still continue. Just you and me."

"Is it my imagination, ma'am? The tone of your voice is...very different from before."

"Isn't it the same for Mr. Odi? Although I don't know what happened...but, you are full of confidence now." Jade said with a smile, squinting her eyes.

"Now we can speak frankly. Do you believe it, Odi? In the past ten Amber Ages, you are not the only "businessman" who has witnessed the changes in the cosmic market."

"Interesting... Hohohoho, this is getting interesting. Speaking frankly, very good! I like openness and transparency the most. Tell me, where are you going to go with this move?"

"Unfortunately, my habit is to checkmate first and then make a move. Let me tell you the conclusion directly. First, your plan is impossible to achieve. There is no way that Pinocchio can bypass the company's "listing".

Second, you cannot prevent the company from entering Pinoconi. We have plenty of time and means to find a suitable breakthrough, tear it open bit by bit, and then fill it up, so that the Asdena Galaxy can become familiar with the company's tactics again.

I will now return all the words you said. In order to save your dignity and avoid becoming the target of public criticism during the formal talks, you'd better give up that fantastic plan."

"Hahaha! Interesting, so interesting! You, a woman with painted skin, have such a big mouth! Come on, show your cards, Old Odi, I'm ready!" Since Feicui forced him so much, Old Odi had already made up his mind that Pinocchio could not be given to the company no matter who it was.

"Don't forget, Mr. Odi, our company controls the largest propaganda platform in the universe. More than half of the news networks in the universe are our mouthpieces.

The second after you spread the news of Pinocchio's IPO, tens of thousands of users will receive a push notification like this at the same time:

"The family's protection of Pinocchio has failed. An accident in the dream state may lead to permanent brain death."

Hehe, guess what, when the whole galaxy is looking at Pinocchio, with just this one piece of information, how many ways does the company have to devalue the Clover Coin within twenty-four systems?"

"Ms. Feicui, is this the trump card of you and the company? Oh my god, I really didn't expect this..."

Jade thought that Old Odi was powerless to refute, so she continued: "My whip is very long, and it can easily strangle your neck even in Pier Point.

As long as you give up that stupid listing plan, the company will promise not to harm the interests of the family heads headed by you.

We also need allies in AstraZeneca. The company can "help" Pinocchio with financing - starting with buying 30% of the shares. With our capital inflow, the stabilization and reconstruction of Pinocchio will be a project overnight. "

"30%... Hahahaha, really, I was not wrong at all. Sigh... Madam, I thought you could give me a lot of surprises, but I didn't expect that he had guessed every step of yours..."

"What do you mean?"

“How terrifying! You clearly didn’t participate in this negotiation, but you were able to accurately guess everyone’s thoughts. You deserve the title of genius… Ms. Emerald, everything you just said is based on the condition that [the family cannot guarantee the safety of the guests].

But if the company uses such a large force to smear and defame Pinocchio, the company's reputation will surely plummet..."

Jade was confused... Did she miss something? Wait, isn't there someone who wants Pinocchio who hasn't shown up yet...

Then, in front of Feicui, Lao Aodi took out a contract.

"Ms. Feicui, the family embraces everything, including [protection], of course, but the company..."

Jade picked up the contract and took a look at it…the smile she had before disappeared.

"You did a great job, Mr. Banxia... You actually used your reputation as a bargaining chip to guarantee the safety of all Pinocchio's customers in the name of [Abundance], and at the same time maintain a long-term cooperative relationship with the family..."

Feicui frowned slightly. Even if the company exposed his identity now, it might not cause much impact. After all, he didn't care about his reputation at all. Besides, the company still had leverage over him and the debts had not been paid off yet...

"If we go public, to be honest, our company's cash flow may not be better than this gentleman's. Mr. Odi, you really found a good helper..."

To be honest, Feicui had actually seen through Banxia's intentions a long time ago. Old Odi has now regained his youth, and he is the only one in Pinocchio who is capable of doing this.

"You can't say that... His appetite is no smaller than your company's, but if the company is determined to fight to the death, Old Aodi doesn't mind paying a price..."

After a moment of silence, Feicui smiled again: "Don't make the atmosphere so awkward, Mr. Odi. The company can definitely establish a new cooperation based on the cooperation between you and Mr. Banxia... We can make some concessions."

"How do you want to cooperate?"

At this time, the door of the conference room opened, and Jizi and Topa walked in.

"Mr. Odi, let me introduce you to this person, one of Pinocchio's future shareholders, Ms. Ji Zi from Star Train!"

Chapter 192 Shareholders

"Brother Banxia, ​​how many shares did you ask the family for?" Sanyueqi asked curiously. She knew that Banxia needed enough shares to ensure the safety of all the guests of Pinocchio, but she didn't know the exact number.

"Not much." Banxia replied with a smile.
