Chapter 240: Perhaps they don't know?



"But, from this day forward, there will be no more Bennett Rockefeller in the world, you know?"

Liu Yun said that she would not let Bennett go back, and it was even more impossible for him to return to the BCIA or the Rockefeller family.

Harold, being an old and shrewd man, understood: "I understand, thank you for going easy on me, I'll keep an eye on him."

Liu Yun: "Did the Rockefeller family not know Bennett's and your identities?"

Harold: "Of course I don't know, otherwise... these tycoons... would probably be willing to be embraced, at least they could live longer and have more time to enjoy all the riches."

Liu Yun: "...That makes sense. With so many superhumans in the BCIA, how could they not know?"

Harold: "I used a special secret method to conceal Bennett's presence. As long as he doesn't transform in front of others, there will be no problem."

Liu Yun: ...No rebuttal, neither confirming nor denying.

There are actually many smart people in this world; don't think of others as so stupid.

But most people were probably unaware of this, and knowing they couldn't control Bennett, they kept quiet.

According to her information, there are quite a few people who want to introduce Bennett to partners, or become Bennett's partners.

On the contrary, there were surprisingly many.

Although the Rockefeller surname is somewhat related, and Bennett inherited the vampire's good looks, it's not enough to attract so much attention. Some of those who do have powerful backgrounds, mysterious origins, and great abilities are even more so.

Why would anyone go to such lengths to do that?

Is it really for love?

Anyway, Liu Yun didn't believe it; those with strong romantic instincts are few and far between.

"When you first embrace, do you have to pay some price?"

Harold: "Of course, it's like transferring your energy to the other person, modifying their body, giving them vampire blood, and allowing them to awaken and cultivate."

"The degree of embrace is related to the amount of energy invested, and the resulting qualities will also be different."

"In severe cases, it can even damage the foundation and cause a drop in cultivation level; in milder cases, it will take many years to recover... Ultimately, it's because the environment is not good."

Although there is suspicion of manipulation, it would grant immortality!

At this point, many people flock to it.

Liu Yun had a knowing look on her face.

This means that even the most powerful vampire has a very limited number of times they can receive the Embrace in a short period of time.

Those who are clearly in the know probably also know this, and understand very well that using coercion may not yield the desired results.

So they wanted to use emotions to get Bennett to willingly give them the first embrace, or rather, to use more energy to transform their bodies.

Therefore, even if they discover something, they won't show it.

It's a pity that Bennett, because of his status, has extremely high standards and hasn't figured things out yet, so he didn't take the bait at all.

Otherwise, it's really hard to explain the thought process behind those who abandon female beauty for male beauty...

I guess they were just thinking that the first embrace doesn't discriminate by gender, and what if Bennett liked it?

Liu Yun didn't press the issue, saying, "Alright, just keep an eye on him... Also, do you own any movie theaters?"

Harold's attention was drawn to the peeling of the net, and he didn't immediately understand what was being said: "What theater chain?"

Liu Yun: "You don't have access to movie theater chains, but what about the rest of your family?"

"I don't believe your ancient family wouldn't get involved in something this lucrative."

The more profitable something is, the more these ancient families hold onto it.

They originally wanted to use Bennett to squeeze some money out of Rockefeller.

Now that Harold is here, it will only be easier.

Bennett was lucky, which is why he survived, only with a different name.

These past few days, he's been beaten up by Zhang Linyuan like a punching bag. His current state, where even his own father wouldn't recognize him, is Zhang Linyuan's handiwork.

Harold: "Oh, yes, there is one wholly owned, and several with shares. I'll have someone transfer the shares to you."

After he finished speaking, Harold fell silent.

How long has it been, and his servility has already emerged?

Liu Yun: ...She just wanted Harold to get involved and get these cinemas to be the first to install glasses-free 3D equipment. It was a hot commodity, but she hadn't been able to act because of pressure from above.

Once someone takes the lead, the stalemate will be broken.

Everyone wants to make money, so they'll definitely be scrambling to get involved.

Otherwise, you can only watch others make money.

Since this person is so cooperative, why not just give her the shares? What's the point of refusing?

Although she is not short of money now, it doesn't stop the cinemas from making money and then using it back in Yan Guo!

Whether it's development or talent recruitment and incentives, there are always many areas that require funding.

According to Secretary Liu, Yan State has issued a recall order and is spending a lot of money to retain talent.

"Alright, you go first and get the cinema shares sorted out as soon as possible."

Harold: ...The net hasn't been taken off yet. What is it made of that is? It's stuck on so firmly.

Before Harold could respond, there was a "ripping" sound, and it felt as if something had been removed from his back and arms, leaving a cool sensation.

"Aww!"

Harold screamed in agony as the pain belatedly struck him.

Fortunately, when Harold transformed from a bat into a human, he had at least put on a pair of underwear.

It wasn't that he didn't want to wear clothes, but the netting was stuck on him, so he couldn't put them on.

Liu Yun picked at her ear. Poor thing, this shows how important it is to change your clothes along with your transformation.

If it gets stuck on clothes, it's just a piece of clothing that's lost.

Now, it truly feels like we've shed a layer of skin in a physical sense before we can move on.

Zhang Linyuan and his two companions tossed the half-finished webpage around with some disdain; it would be too much trouble for them to deal with!

"When Sister Yun initially chose and tested Bennett, she probably wanted to contact Rockefeller through him to resolve the theater issue!"

With cinemas being such a lucrative business, how could American conglomerates not get involved?

Each of them still holds a very high percentage of shares.

It's all built up over so many years.

Back then, these technologies had just emerged, and wealthy conglomerates couldn't possibly miss out on them.

As for those digital special effects technologies, they've been held back because they don't want Yan Guo to reap the benefits and make their previous investments go down the drain.

As of now, we haven't come up with a better solution.

Liu Yun nodded: "Who can blame us when Bennett has such a special status?"

"Fortunately, starting with Harold was just as good, and the result was even better."

“Rockefeller wouldn’t transfer all his shares to me for the sake of Bennett.”

The three remained silent: ...Isn't it because of that talisman?

In the following days, Liu Yun used her original identity to conduct activities, not only having John represent the company at the equity transfer, but also having him handle all the necessary procedures.

In short, as I said before, when she follows the rules and regulations, everyone should be secretly happy and behave themselves.

If she's up to no good, don't blame her for acting unpredictably.

Of course, the equity transfer is to her personally; the overseas company is merely authorized to use it.
