Finished memorizing.
Andre raised his head with the notebook and sighed, "Boy, what you just said is not a small amount of money. Are you sure you have thought about it?"
"I'm sure."
600 billion supports 70,000 people. Even if 200 billion is thrown away for various research and development, each soldier can still get 5.7 million.
Enough.
William crossed his arms on his chest, looked at Andre and said seriously, "One of Umbrella's declarations is that life is business.
This is not just about customers, but also our own agents.
If it weren't for the agents' disregard for death, how could the customers be safe?
Besides, the company is really not short of money now, Andre, let's go ahead and do it."
"Well, okay." Andre nodded solemnly.
This old colonel has personally organized the vast majority of Containment Operation. He has also witnessed the heroic sacrifice of those young children, and he is completely in favor of equipment upgrades.
Then asked, "Is there anything else besides these?"
"No more..." William rubbed his chin with his hand, whispered for a moment and then said to Andre:
"In fact... I don't seem to have to travel around the world anymore, the company's expansion has reached saturation.
There is no shortage of money either."
"That's it..."
Seeing that William was confused, Andre first put the notebook and pen into his pocket, his eyes shining brightly.
The old strong man walked up to William, stretched out his arms, and hugged his neck, all at once.
And in the tone of an older generation, he looked at the ceiling and sighed:
"Boy, I think back then Lord Russell led us to make our family prosperous.
Senior officials in Britain, France, and the United States, and even Minister Heller in Canada, have all received favors from Lord Russell.
But (sudden change of tone).
Lord Russell Only one of your father's descendants led to the family's rapid decline, not counting Sukka!
So (looking at William being clamped).
You have to hurry..."
"Stop! Stop it!"
William didn't wait for Andre to finish speaking, and quickly made an "X" shape with his arms, and broke free from the restraints again and said loudly:
"I have something I like, don't rush it."
"Oh?"
Andre said with a face as if his plan had succeeded, "When will we take little girl Catherine to get married, eh? Where is the bridal chamber? Where is the child?"
"You are always like this every time, and you always say that I am not good at what I do." William was a little annoyed.
"Hey..."
Andre Seeing that the hard-line approach was not feasible, he immediately changed his strategy. He sat back on his office chair and pretended to be melancholy:
"Boy, I'm fifty years old.
I took care of you as you grew up, and witnessed your decadence from your previous decadence to your present worth of hundreds of billions.
Regardless of Lord Russell's legacy, I have already regarded you as my own son.
At my age, what I wish for most is...
Hug a grandchild."
"Andre..."
William Seeing the other party's increasingly older face, even though he knew it was a trick, his nose still felt a little sore.
Then he walked to the table and promised, "Don't worry, I also know that I shouldn't delay it any longer. I will give you an answer by the end of the year."
"Very good!"
After receiving the guarantee, Andre nodded with satisfaction, and his face became refreshed.
"Haha." William really couldn't help his 'old father', so he smiled and said:
"The five warships of Voyage to Dawn will be launched in August next year. Before then, the company should not have made any big moves.
The only things worthy of my attention are the premieres of <Iron Man> and <Starship Troopers 2>, as well as the Xbox launch event."
"So, how do you want to arrange your free time?" Andre asked.
"Hmm..." William thought for a moment and said:
"I plan to stay in Troy and let Hunk and the Alphas teach me how to fight and shoot. Anyway, there is no harm in learning more self-protection skills."
"That's okay." Andre didn't object, but as if he suddenly remembered something, he reminded William:
"By the way, St. Mary's contacted me two days ago and said that you haven't gone to class for a whole year.
If your student account is not unfrozen, you will be dismissed immediately."
!
I heard that I had to go to class.
William felt a headache.
I already have a fortune of nearly one trillion yuan, so why should I take classes?
He raised his hands and rubbed his temples, and said lazily, "Andre, buy St. Mary's..."
Evening.
New York.
Looking down from the sky, the afterglow of the sun makes various tall buildings elongate their silhouettes, covering a large area of Manhattan.
Even if it is not completely dark, the bustling city is already brightly lit.
It is worthy of being the economic center of North America and even the entire world.
The camera zooms in.
Manhattan Midtown, home to Empire State Building, Central Station, and the New York Library, has surging traffic on the streets, showing that this is the most lively and prosperous area.
42nd Street across Midtown.
A convoy of ten black SUVs, led by the local police, was driving westward unimpeded.
The convoy is driven by Hunk and Alpha, and its destination is Empire No. 25 cinema.
in one of the vehicles;
William, who is sitting on the back left, has a slightly better hairstyle and clothes, and his face looks much more heroic.
And next to him is...
"Old... boss, does this look good to me?"
Hearing the shy voice, William couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and cast his gaze to his side.
I saw Halsey also sitting on the right rear side of the vehicle.
His face was crimson and he looked very shy.
Her long light golden hair was carefully taken care of by the stylists hired by William, making her look graceful and elegant, unlike the little girl she was before.
More importantly...
The black evening dress she wore showed off the white skin on her back and the close-fitting design, perfectly interpreting what a devilish figure is.
Seeing Halsey so beautiful and touching, William was stunned.
After a long pause, he nodded and affirmed. "You are the most beautiful today."
Hear the words.
Halsey was so embarrassed that he covered his face with his hands and murmured softly, "Then, do you like...?"
"Of course." William smiled softly, "I like it."
At this time, he saw through the front window that he was about to reach his destination, so he picked up his windbreaker and put it on Halsey.
After all, we have just celebrated Christmas. It cannot be said that the wind is biting outside, but Halsey will definitely catch the cold with the clothes he wears.
"Chi-!"
As the vehicle came to a sudden stop, Hunk, who was sitting in the passenger seat, immediately unbuckled his seat belt and prepared to get out of the car, opened the rear door and asked Halsey and William to get out.
"Boss..."
Seeing this, Halsey felt deeply nervous, and his little hands couldn't help but grasp William's thigh.
"Okay."
William, who was accustomed to outside situations, reached out and patted Halsey's back, encouraging him:
"Show your usual domineering attitude, and I'll take care of the rest."
"Huh... ha..."
With William's comfort, Halsey forced himself to calm down, took a deep breath, and tried hard to maintain his cold and charming face.
"Click-"
Hunk opened the car door, held the handle firmly with his right hand, and swung his left hand toward the red carpet and said softly to Halsey:
"Miss, please."
"..." Halsey was slightly hesitant and fearful.
But in the end, he nodded to Hunk, covered William's windbreaker with both hands and stepped out of the car to greet the people outside...
'Army of journalists'.
