"Umbrella withdraws investment from Sindorra, questioning its safety issues, virtual reality games suffer a heavy blow! ?"
"I didn't expect that foreign countries are also good at shocking people."
While drinking tea and reading the newspaper, Fang Zheng couldn't help but sigh. In his opinion, this was not a big deal, but it was not the case for Sindor. As a giant in the IT industry, Sindor had been planning in this area for a long time. In fact, Umbrella's withdrawal of investment had no impact on Sindor's R&D and manufacturing work. The important impact was... social opinion.
Yes, it doesn’t matter if people talk nonsense in the newspapers, but it’s very conspicuous to gamble with real money. In fact, under the hype of Sintra, almost everyone believes that virtual reality is the future of the gaming industry, and many large conglomerates and companies in Japan have joined in.
Amid all the cheers, Fang Zheng, the "contrarian", stood out.
It's like everyone thinks that the stock market is hot and that investing money will make money, but you are the only one who thinks the stock market is about to end and rushes to sell short.
This is very strange.
Moreover, given the social nature of Japan, such anti-trend behavior is generally unwelcome. In fact, there are many reports in the media that openly or covertly mock Umbrella. Fang Zheng just pretended not to see it. Even though he is jumping for joy now, he will be put on the list sooner or later in the future.
"So if you don't say that, then everything will be fine."
Hearing Fang Zheng's muttering, Xiao Ai looked at him helplessly and pointed at the invitation letter next to him.
"If you don't say anything, then this won't happen. Do you want to go?"
"I'm not going."
After taking a look at the invitation letter, Fang Zheng snorted coldly.
"The CEO of Sindora specifically invited you to come. I guess he was really pissed off by your previous comments in the media."
Xiao Ai looked at Fang Zheng with a grin, as if she was enjoying a good show. No wonder Xiao Ai said that. Fang Zheng dared to say that this thing was unsafe, of course he had evidence. He was referring to the "game cabin" of this virtual game. According to the plan given by Sindorah Company, their approach was actually no different from Kayaba Akihiko in SAO, but they went a step further than Kayaba Akihiko. At best, Kayaba Akihiko just put a helmet on people, but this game cabin not only locked everyone in, but it was also sealed?
Moreover, the game cabin has no safety disconnection system at all, and there is no way to actively open it from the inside. It can be said that even if Fang Zheng did not know the plot of "The Phantom of Baker Street", he could see dozens of safety hazards in this system at a glance.
Of course, anything will have many potential safety risks in the early stages of construction, and the same is true for airplanes. The first airplanes were only required to be able to fly... Modern airplanes are naturally not that simple.
But to be honest, this thing is actually more dangerous than the full stealth system. After all, the full stealth system can still maintain vital signs after losing consciousness, but if something unexpected happens with this thing, you can only wait to die in it - well, the coffin is prepared for you, and it is high-tech, so you just need to find a place to bury it.
Perhaps the president of Sindor Company was almost having a heart attack because of Fang Zheng's criticism, so he sent him an invitation letter to attend the first public launch of the virtual reality game system to be held at the Mihua City Hall tonight.
Fang Zheng naturally decided not to go!
He almost vomited after playing the death game, and he wants to play it again? No!
"If he invites me, I will go. Don't I want to save face? You don't have to join in the fun. It's not fun at all."
"No problem. I plan to go out to the movies with my sister tomorrow."
Having said this, Xiao Ai paused and looked at Fang Zheng.
"Do you want to come with me? My sister has an extra ticket..."
"What movie? I don't watch romance movies."
"I don't watch science fiction movies either."
"Okay, as long as it's not you who loves me. I love you. Oh, mom, please don't be angry with me..."
"call……"
Hearing Fang Zheng's agreement, Xiao Ai lowered her head and breathed a sigh of relief.
The reason why she invited Fang Zheng to go to the movies together was naturally what Xiao Ai had planned long ago. The reason was very simple... She wanted to bring her sister and Fang Zheng together!
Xiao Ai could see that her sister liked Fang Zheng, but for some reason, she never confessed her feelings to him. This made Xiao Ai very anxious, because she knew Fang Zheng was quite popular. After all, Mingmei was working on weekdays, so Xiao Ai spent more time with Fang Zheng, so she observed him more carefully.
In fact, according to Xiao Ai's observation, it was normal for Fang Zheng to be popular with women. He was young, handsome, rich, and had no annoying show-off qualities. Although he was very rude at times, he surprisingly did not make people feel disgusted, but instead gave people a sense of uninhibited and free-spiritedness.
Not to mention that he is actually a very gentle and considerate person, so it is normal that he is popular with girls.
Ai knew that the Shimokasa sisters at home looked at Fang Zheng in an abnormal way, not to mention Shimabukuro Kimie, Kosaka Natsumi and Okino Yoko who appeared in the movie casting. Ai could swear with her woman's intuition that they also had a good impression of Fang Zheng!
Although Xiao Ai also thinks that her sister is a pretty good-looking girl, isn't it the same for the others? Shimabukuro Kimie is gentle and sweet, Kosaka Natsumi is cheerful and lively and is also a mixed-race, and Okino Yoko is even more of an idol. Her sister has basically no advantage over the three of them. The only advantage is that she has been with Fang Zheng for a long time...
But my sister never seizes the opportunity...!
Xiao Ai felt tired too.
Although they live together, Fang Zheng treats Xiao Ai and Ming Mei like his own sisters. Xiao Ai is really worried that if this continues, Fang Zheng says that he only treats Ming Mei as a sister...
"By the way, Mr. Fang Zheng."
Thinking of this, Xiao Ai took a deep breath and decided to play as a forward instead of her sister.
"Do you have a favorite woman?"
"Yes, I have."
However, to Xiao Ai's surprise, Fang Zheng actually nodded in acknowledgement without even stuttering, and even looked at the newspaper in his hand. His reaction was as if someone asked him "Have you eaten today?"
“Yes…yes?!”
Hearing this, Xiao Ai suddenly became nervous.
"Who is it?"
"Oh, you don't know him."
Which means it’s not the same women as before… um… wait, now is not the time to relax!
"Then when can we be introduced to each other?"
"It depends on the situation. It's unlikely at the moment. I can introduce them to you after I deal with the Black Organization."
Fang Zheng answered casually as he flipped through the newspaper, and Xiao Ai nodded, then was suddenly stunned.
Wait...what are they?
"What do you mean by 'they'? Mr. Fang Zheng, do you have more than one girlfriend?"
“That’s no nonsense.”
Fang Zheng's expression was like Ai asking if the earth was round.
"How is it possible for a handsome, young and rich guy like me to have only one girlfriend?"
“…”
Meow meow meow?
At this moment, Xiao Ai looked at Fang Zheng with a completely confused expression.
What you said makes sense, but why do I always feel like something is wrong?
"So you are such a playboy, Mr. Fang Zheng?"
"That's fine if you want to understand it that way."
Fang Zheng shrugged.
"They like me and I like them, so we are together. I don't think there is any problem."
"But love isn't like this, right...?"
Xiao Ai feels like her outlook on life has been distorted.
"You mean like Kudo Shinichi and Xiaolan? Frankly speaking, I can understand, but I can't empathize with them."
Fang Zheng shook his head and turned another page of the newspaper.
"To be honest, I think that Kudo Shinichi likes Xiaolan, and Xiaolan also likes Kudo Shinichi. In their eyes, each other is the only one for the other. This is a very romantic thing. I can also understand their loyalty and trust in each other, but... I can't do this myself."
Although Fang Zheng secretly complained that he wanted to cheat on Kudo Shinichi every day, he was just talking. After all, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Kudo Shinichi and Xiaolan loved each other and were willing to sacrifice everything for each other. Fang Zheng would certainly not break up this kind of "true love".
On the other hand, for people like Kato Megumi and Aki Tomoya... then don't blame Fang Zheng for using the super-god-level excavator technology he learned from Lanxiang Technical School.
Not only will I dig into your walls, I'll even tear your house down!
"Why? Isn't this just being fickle?"
"I didn't say it wasn't true. I just treated others in the way I thought was love."
Having said that, Fang Zheng raised his head and glanced at Xiao Ai.
"Or do you know what love is?"
“…”
Xiao Ai was silent now. Her life before she became small was all about doing experiments and talking to mice. Love? Was she talking about love with mice? Or was she talking about love with amino acids?
"You don't have a boyfriend."
Seeing Xiao Ai not saying anything, Fang Zheng also chuckled.
"So it's a little early for a little girl to fall in love...especially at your age."
It hurts, my friend!
Hearing this, Xiao Ai snorted coldly, and then walked out of the room with a cold face. I don't want to become smaller! If I don't become smaller, I will still be a young girl of eighteen, and I want to find a boyfriend... Thinking of this, Xiao Ai suddenly became discouraged again.
In the organization, who can have a boyfriend or girlfriend?
Why not go talk to your sister?
Thinking of this, Xiao Ai thought of her sister again.
Why not just sleep with my sister tonight? It’s been a while since we had a night talk together as sisters... maybe this is a good opportunity?
Fang Zheng didn't care about Xiao Ai's thoughts. What kind of love is a child's? Well, strictly speaking, if Xiao Ai returned to her original age, then some of Fang Zheng's girlfriends would be younger than her, but being young doesn't mean that you have never been in love. If we really want to talk about the view of love, there are some little girls in Fang Zheng's family who might understand it better than Xiao Ai.
Of course, Fang Zheng knew that those girls had feelings for him, but this world was just like the world of love, so Fang Zheng didn't dare to have a large harem.
Why? The reason is simple. Look at how many episodes in Conan are women killing bad men? !
Moreover, compared to the "brutal and simple" method of stabbing with a kitchen knife in the love world, the women in this world are really good at dealing with men, with all kinds of secret room killing methods emerging one after another. If Fang Zheng opened a harem here, if he was not careful, it would not only be a question of whether he would die, but also a question of how he would be killed...
Alas, it’s tiring to hold it in for too long.
Fang Zheng also wanted to help some poor JK women who had to come out to make a living, but the world really didn't give him face, and there was no such profession at all... This made Fang Zheng have a lot of enthusiasm but nowhere to vent it. If he continued to hold it back, he might become a pervert...
But if you want to have a girlfriend in this world, it is easy to be killed in various ways...
Just when Fang Zheng was considering whether to go to Ginza to have some fun, his cell phone suddenly rang. Fang Zheng put down the newspaper and answered the phone.
"Hey, Officer Megure, what can I do for you?"
"Ah, Brother Fang, are you busy now?"
Inspector Megure's voice on the phone sounded a little heavy.
"Not too busy, what's up?"
"It's like this, there's some trouble at the Mihua City Hall..."
Having said this, Inspector Megure lowered his voice.
"Can you come and see?"
“…”
After hearing this, Fang Zheng knew what Inspector Megure wanted him to do.
