Chapter 936

.

In the battle of wits between Shi Lei and Gabriel, although from Gabriel's point of view, Gabriel's plan was very brilliant and could be said to be a model of foresight.

However, Gabriel and Shi Lei did not have the same amount of information!

Shi Lei knew too much information that Gabriel thought Shi Lei did not know. This caused a fatal flaw to appear in Gabriel's plan. In fact, Shi Lei had even predicted Gabriel's plan and constructed a reverse plan. While Gabriel was scheming against Shi Lei, Shi Lei was scheming against Gabriel.

Once Dream Entertainment's player event in New York City, Lijian Province began, Shi Lei and Gabriel's plans would clash head-on. At that time, whether Shi Lei was more skillful or Gabriel was more skillful, the answer would be revealed!

Lijian Province, June 1th, 65 PM. Xia Xia time, 65 AM.

Dream Entertainment's official website announced that Dream Entertainment would be holding an offline event for the World of Heroes in New York City, Lijian Province.

New York City, Lijian Province Offline Event Announcement

Due to the enthusiastic support of Lijian Province's players for the World of Heroes, Dream Entertainment officially decided to hold an offline event for the World of Heroes on June 4th, Lijian Province.

The exact location of the event was still to be decided. Dream Entertainment's official website would announce the event before 75 PM on June 3th, Lijian Province.

This event included but was not limited to players from Lijian Province. Any players who wanted to participate in the event could sign up on the event announcement page. Special reminder: To save resources, players who signed up for the event and obtained the right to participate would receive the following warning measures if they did not participate in the event.

First: Players are prohibited from signing up for any Dream Entertainment offline events.

Second: Good and Evil Points in the World of Heroes will be reduced by 655.

Friendly reminder: Please do not use the event's resources. The three warning measures will be implemented!

[Remarks]

Players with the following forum IDs have received a special invitation from Dream Entertainment. They do not need to register to participate in the event.

Storm, Blue Ocean, Holy Light Priestess, Wings of Glory …

VIP players will not be warned if they do not attend the event.

…

At the end of the announcement, there were more than thirty players on the list. They were all players from Lijian Province who supported Dream Entertainment. Dream Entertainment had singled out the rich players and specially invited them. This would make the rich players feel very proud.

As for the opinions of ordinary players?

There was no such thing as absolute fairness in this world. The so-called absolute fairness was, in fact, unfair!

The World of Heroes operated by Dream Entertainment was geared towards high-end players. This was a fact that the majority of players had already been mentally prepared for before the game was released. Therefore, the ordinary players did not have much of an opinion about the special invitation.

For this event, Shi Lei did not plan to hold it in a public venue. Instead, he planned to hold it indoors. There were many disadvantages to having a public venue, including the fact that there was no way to control the number of players participating. If there were too many players and an accident happened, there would be very serious consequences. After all, Shi Lei already knew that there would definitely be accidents during this event.

If there were no accidents, Shi Lei would dare to eat his keyboard!

Another disadvantage of choosing a public venue for the event was that there was no guarantee of safety. This was because there was no way to control the situation in an open venue. Even if there were snipers on the surrounding rooftops, they would not know!

Shi Lei already knew that Angel Council's Gabriel would definitely carry out some plan when Dream Entertainment held the event. Even if Shi Lei did not know the details of Gabriel's plan, Shi Lei could completely prevent the consequences of Gabriel's plan.

Just as Shi Lei was planning, the phone on the bed rang. Shi Lei rubbed his chin with his left hand and waved his right hand. "Let's do it! I want to see what Gabriel is capable of! "

After speaking, Shi Lei turned to the bed and picked up the phone from the white blanket. Izur's automatic notification showed that the number was Xiao Bo. Shi Lei pressed the answer button and spoke first. "Xiao Bo, is there any new development regarding D-Wave?"

Shi Lei was determined to acquire D-Wave!

Even if the price was higher than D-Wave's market price, Shi Lei would not hesitate to buy D-Wave.

On the other side of New York City, Xiao Bo held the phone with a complicated expression. Shi Lei immediately guessed the reason for his call. No wonder when he went against Shi Lei, he was set up by Shi Lei.

"That's right, Mr. Shi. D-Wave's headquarters in Ghana have already contacted me to confirm. They will fly over tomorrow morning and can meet us tomorrow afternoon to discuss the work," Xiao Bo explained.

Shi Lei smiled. This was more or less a piece of good news. "Xiao Bo, has D-Wave confirmed the time and place of the meeting?"

"Mr. Shi, the person in charge of D-Wave has already arranged the time and place. The specific time is tomorrow at two o 'clock in the afternoon, and the location is D-Wave's Lijian Province office. " Xiao Bo thought for a moment and added, "Boss, do you need me to recruit some business negotiation experts for the first round of negotiations?"

Shi Lei shook his head. "No need, I'll do it myself!"

Business negotiation experts were indeed more capable than Shi Lei in the field of business negotiation. Their professional knowledge beat Shi Lei's a thousand times over. However, the appearance of business negotiation experts was a mistake. This meant that Dream Entertainment placed great importance on what should have been an ordinary meeting. This revealed that Dream Entertainment was very interested in acquiring D-Wave.

If it was just Dream Entertainment's CEO meeting with D-Wave's executives, it could represent a lot of information. It could be that Dream Entertainment was optimistic about D-Wave's development and wanted to acquire or invest in it. It could also be that Dream Entertainment wanted to buy D-Wave's quantum computer.

Regardless of which it was, it was a good outcome for D-Wave. However, these two situations represented completely different attitudes from Dream Entertainment.

Xiao Bo did not continue to express his opinion. He only agreed. "Okay, Mr. Shi. I'll pick you up at the hotel at one o 'clock tomorrow afternoon."

…

Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was already June 2th, past one o 'clock in the afternoon.

Xiao Bo personally drove Shi Lei to D-Wave's office in New York City. The traffic in New York City was very busy, but the city's planning was very reasonable. It was basically a standard horizontal and vertical layout, with traffic flowing in all directions.

Xiao Bo was very familiar with New York City's traffic routes. It was obvious that Xiao Bo had memorized the traffic information. When it was close to two o 'clock, the two of them arrived at D-Wave's office in New York City.

Shi Lei did not intend to deliberately delay the time and cause himself to be late or act like a big shot. Shi Lei was very particular about the concept of time, especially when it came to an agreed time. Shi Lei did not like people not following the rules.

D-Wave's office in New York City was not in a busy area, but on a relatively peaceful street. This was because D-Wave's capabilities were not strong enough. They did not have the qualifications to set up their offices in Wall Street or Times Square.

After D-Wave was established, there was almost no marketing income. They constantly invested in research and development, as well as advertising and public relations. In the future, the academic world did not recognize D-Wave because D-Wave's advertisements were too exaggerated.

D-Wave's office in New York City, small conference room.

There were a total of five people in this meeting. Dream Entertainment's representatives were Shi Lei and Xiao Bo. D-Wave's representatives were President Hoyt Vandenberg, Vice President Sanford Henry, and Technical Director Walter Smith.

President Hoyt held 20% of the shares, Vice President Sanford held 60%, and Technical Director Walter held 65%. Of the three, Shi Lei only intended to keep Technical Director Walter Smith.

Walter Smith was crucial to D-Wave's quantum computer research. He could even be said to be the core! Without Walter Smith, D-Wave might not have been able to develop a quantum computer!

"Hello, Mr. Lei, I am Hoyt Vandenberg from D-Wave," President Hoyt said.

Shi Lei's mouth twitched. This damn Hoyt, he did not even know Xia Xia's name beforehand. "Mr. Vandenberg, our Xia Xia's name comes first and his first name comes last. You can call me 'Mr. Shi' or 'Shi Lei.' "

Hoyt Vandenberg looked at Shi Lei awkwardly.

Vice President Sanford quickly said, "Mr. Shi, hello, I am Sanford, the Vice President of D-Wave. May I know why Mr. Shi is contacting our D-Wave company? "

Dream Entertainment had recently acquired AMD. Such a huge investment set off huge waves all over the world. As a related company, when D-Wave received Dream Entertainment's message, their first guess was that Dream Entertainment wanted to acquire them.

Shi Lei said bluntly, "I want to acquire D-Wave!"

Such a domineering and direct way of expressing his intentions caused everyone present to be stunned …
