2029. Umbrella's Secret (Part 1)
Alfred-Ashford looked a little ugly. He grabbed his blond hair that was neatly combed. Then he seemed to feel that it was such an insult to his elegance, so he quickly straightened his hair again.
Then, he connected to a communication. A majestic man with gray hair, wearing a dark blue military coat and looking about 50 years old, appeared in the holographic projection.
"Sergey Vladimir, can you tell me that Chalseden Planet's commotion has been resolved by you!" Alfred-Ashford asked.
The majestic man named Sergei snorted coldly, "Rebel Alliance is probably involved in this matter. Our people have missed the target twice and still failed to catch the target. As I said, if you really want to solve this matter, you need to send U. S. S. Only the few Ghost Agent assigned to U. S. S. can find those elusive Rebel Alliance."
"Why does it have to be U. S. S! I'm not feeding pigs by spending so much money on U. B. C. S!" Alfred looked gloomy.
"You should know that many former Jedi Knight participated in the Rebel Alliance. But this time U. B. C. S returned without success, probably because the other party had Jedi Knight." Sergei Vladimir said coldly.
"Jedi Knight is not the reason you use to whitewash your failure." Alfred-Ashford gritted his teeth.
"But it is an objective factor. Don't forget, there were 6 Jedi Knights killed by us last year. None of them were because of my mistakes in judgment." Sergei Vladimir said.
"No! You must not use the U. S. S. this time!" Alfred said loudly.
"The dispatch of U. S. S. Ghost Agent requires permission from Alexia. If you are unwilling to face your sister, then I can do it for you." Sergey Vladimir said, "The suspected virus adapter that appeared this time The virus inhibitor is the only one that has appeared in the past six months. To complete the experiment of the 'Ant Colony' project, we must extract the virus inhibitor from the aptamer. Now the military is paying close attention to this project, and we have no time to find a second aptamer."
Alfred punched the table hard, "Asshole! Why did you find the adapter from a few sold slaves! Asshole!!"
"The more critical question should be why Cerea civilians were infected with T-Veronica Virus? And the infected people were taken out of Cerea. If this was not because of management loopholes, maybe the problem we are facing would be more serious." Sergey said.
"No, Tang Xiao cannot know about this! We cannot let them know that we are conducting biochemical experiments on a habitable planet!" Alfred held his head, "He will definitely kill me! Just like he killed William-Birkin before!"
Sergey said expressionlessly, "Since you are afraid of death, then report it to the lady honestly. At least she won't kill you."
"This is none of your business!" Alfred roared and shut down the communication.
He was panting like an angry hyena at the moment. After a long time, he rubbed his twisted and stiff cheeks hard, trying to make his expression more natural. Then I practiced in front of the mirror several times to ensure that there would be no problems with my lines and appearance.
Then, he connected to a unique communication.
The holographic projection flashed, and a girl with long golden hair and a lavender dress appeared. Her appearance is delicate and beautiful, and she looks to be in her teens at most. However, in her beautiful eyes, there was a maturity and grace that was beyond her age.
And Alfred-Ashford has also become the handsome nobleman again. He gave the girl a noble salute and then said sternly, "My dear sister, Alexia. The research and development of the 'Ant Colony' project has encountered some obstacles, but the military is currently putting a lot of pressure on us. So, I think we need to think about some countermeasures."
The beautiful girl Alexia-Ashford smiled coldly and said, "Are you talking about the adapter? I have already sent out U. S. S. I have always been full of confidence in your incompetence. As long as there is a problem, you will definitely have a problem."
Alfred's face turned pale. He didn't expect what happened just now. Alexia knew it immediately. This result made him a little frightened.
After Alexia-Ashford and he were awakened by Tang Xiao, Tang Xiao immediately asked Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group to divide it, and divided a research institute and gave it to Alexia. And later, he also made additional investment so that Alexia could carry out her own research plan.
This action greatly improved Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group's strength, and in the next few years, Alexia-Ashford also showed no less talent than Sherry-Birkin. She was even much better than Sherry-Birkin in the field of research.
So gradually Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group formed a situation where the two giants coexisted. On the one hand, Sherry-Birkin, who is adhering to the tradition of Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group, as the founder of the group, has the most mature product line and market share, as well as stable orders.
On the other side, Alexia-Ashford is determined to forge ahead and continuously launch newer and stronger products with unparalleled research capabilities. As a distinction, many people call this part of Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group's power Umbrella (Veronica).
However, Alexia was not too concerned about the management of the group. She just focused on her research and handed over all her assets to Alfred for operation. However, the core of this part of them is still Alexia, and she still controls the real power.
This is also the result of Tang Xiao's deliberate segmentation.
Because in the actual development, he found that as a pharmaceutical company, Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group was actually the fastest growing among the major companies under Fourth Civilization! Even companies such as Tyran Heavy Industries, Halo Weapon Systems Group, and Citadel Standard Light Industry, which specialize in industrial manufacturing, are developing rapidly.
Before that, Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group was already the largest business group under Fourth Civilization, second only to Fourth Group!
The fundamental reason is that Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group's products are practical and rich, and the fields they cover are also too wide.
Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group, their biggest main business is their pharmaceuticals. They have developed a large number of medicines for various diseases, and also launched a variety of healing items, health products, etc., almost monopolizing at least 70% of the within the Duchy of Dawn Hospital's market scope.
Then they also developed agents that could transform and strengthen the body, mainly for military use. Fourth Group soldiers, as well as Spartan Program hosted by Doctor Halsey, almost all of the biological enhancements and biological modifications come from Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group.
After that, they also developed biological and chemical weapons, not just virus weapons, but also B. O. W, biological weapons. The most famous among them is Indjori Vengeance, who once made Galactic Republic Army frightened. In addition, biological weapons such as Licker have also been used in night street fighting and achieved good results.
This is not over yet. Now the military is increasing its efforts to research brain implants, which are also researched and produced by Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group in cooperation with the military.
Even Tang Xiao himself is using Essence Transfer to equip many Duchy of Dawn pilots and Fourth Legion soldiers with Rebirth Plan, allowing them to be resurrected infinitely. This project was also completed by Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group and Fourth Group.
When special events occur, such as First Exploration Fleet discovering a mysterious infectious organism, God of Decay-Mont Gal-Mont Gal, it is also to find Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group for research.
Is it over? There is also a big head. Now Duchy of Dawn is drawing the genetic map of all Human race in the country, as well as the gene tailoring project, which is also done by Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group! Rendili Planet's 600 billion population, epidemic prevention work during the migration process, I'm sorry, it's still Umbrella!
In the first few years of Fourth Civilization's development, because the main power was concentrated in the military industry, the power of industrial companies such as Tyran Heavy Industries and Hiigaran Aerospace Group skyrocketed. But after Clone Wars ended, Duchy of Dawn entered a stable development period, and when resources began to be invested in other industries, Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group grew almost like a snowball.
So why did Sherry-Birkin go to First Exploration Fleet and take over everything directly, without paying any attention to the military's Lieutenant General He Ru and Captain Shepard? It's because she has the strength and capital!
Why did Alfred-Ashford directly entertain Lin Nanyi with expensive wine equivalent to the price of a cruiser? It is because of this level of luxury that he can drink it like water!
With such huge resources in their hands, Alfred-Ashford simply felt like they were super powerful people who were inferior to Tang Xiao and their sister, and superior to hundreds of millions of people, with overwhelming power that could be taken over by anyone.
So he was even planning to propose to Sherry-Birkin, and continued to pursue her. He believes that once successful, Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group's huge power will be in his hands alone. This will be a super power that shakes the galaxy with one stomp!
But this time, Alexia-Ashford told him directly with reality that she would know about anything that happened here immediately. This also shows that the so-called power in his hands is actually just charity given to him by Alexia.
Of course, Alexia proved this to him more than once.
However, humans, in the face of such huge interests, it is almost inevitable to forget about food and not fight.
Alfred's expression suddenly froze, and he quickly said, "The situation is under control! The adapter will be arrested by the afternoon at the latest!"
"I suggest you do this. This matter cannot be exposed, because the 'Ant Colony' project, what I reported to Tang Xiao is to experiment on the bugs on the planet Neu-Haon." Alexia said, "The political voices of Cerean and those primitive bugs that degenerated from Kilik Swarm on the planet Neu-Haon are not the same. If the matter is really exposed, you will have to bear the responsibility."
"Don't worry! There will be no problem!" Alfred said, showing an expression that he thought was graceful. "I will never let you down. Watching your beautiful face smile is my greatest happiness."
In fact, although Alfred inherited Ashford family's excellent genes and looked handsome and mighty, his expression at this moment looked a little distorted due to guilt and stiffness.
"It's best this way." Alexia glanced at his brother, his eyes were neither sad nor happy, as if he were looking at a stone.
In fact, Alfred cannot be said to be unsmart. Most of the time, he can still manage Umbrella (Veronica) very well. It's just that his intelligence is limited to the level of a mortal. It's still far from Pre's wisdom like his own.
Therefore, Alexia only values her brother more because of the blood relationship. In addition, she does not think that her brother has the qualifications to be equal to her.
Even, including Sherry-Birkin!
"I have to remind you, put away your unrealistic fantasies. It is impossible for Sherry-Birkin to respond to your advances. Although she is an idiot most of the time, it does not mean that you are qualified to stand by her side." Alexia said.
"Why am I not worthy of Sherry? Wisdom? Wealth? Status? Yes! She is indeed one of the founders of Umbrella Pharmaceutical Group, but the real founders are William-Birkin and Annette-Birkin who were awakened by Tang Xiao! She was just a child at that time! Apart from this Halo, how else is she better than me?" Alfred said loudly.
"Just because she is the perfect adapter for G-Virus." Alexia said calmly, "In the process of life's evolution, she has distanced herself from you mortals, and such a being, in ancient times, was called... god. How can a mortal be ranked alongside gods?"
Alfred gritted his teeth, "What about you?! Don't you also have unrealistic fantasies about Tang Xiao!!"
When Alexia heard Tang Xiao, she finally showed a look of longing, "You and I are different. You pursue Sherry-Birkin just because of her wealth and status. But the union between Tang Xiao and I is the evolution of life and the sublimation of the soul..."
"Hmph!" Alfred turned his face away, expressing his dissatisfaction with Alexia's naked contempt.
"Okay, find the adapter as soon as possible and conduct the next phase of the 'Ant Colony' project experiment as soon as possible." Alexia said, "Sherry, this stupid woman, has made a breakthrough in Meng Gal-Meng Gal's research. I can't fall behind her."
She glanced at Alfred coldly, and then said, "By the way, I was here the day before yesterday. I'll help you get rid of those disgusting toys by the way, you're welcome."
