Chapter 144 It's Time to Show Your Real Skills
The moment he hung up the phone, a "pop" sound rang out immediately, and the professional-dressed beauty appeared in front of him.
She took two steps forward, stretched out her right hand to Chen Bin, and smiled: "Sorry, there was a small misunderstanding. Today, the team leader and the deputy team leader also went to the meeting. Please let me temporarily receive you on behalf of the Wu decision-making group."
Chen Bin looked at her hand quietly while putting on pure white gloves.
Then, he shook hands with her through the gloves with disgust, and then took off the gloves and let them burn.
This behavior was tantamount to fanning the beauty's face, but the beauty's face did not show any displeasure, and she was obviously much more mature than the year before. She was the beauty who contradicted Chen Bin in the investment company two years ago, and her name was Holly Taylor.
"Sit over there and talk, and ask your recorder to come and take notes." After Chen Bin finished speaking, he ignored the expressions of the crowd and walked straight to a corner of the lobby, and then conjured up two sofas and a coffee table, on which there were black tea and snacks.
Taylor sat on the sofa opposite, looking friendly and natural, and drank the black tea on the coffee table elegantly.
She tried to chat with Chen Bin, but Chen Bin closed his eyes and waited for the recorder to arrive.
After a while, twelve people came behind Taylor. They all had notebooks, and both men and women wore black suits.
A staff member moved a long table behind Taylor so that the group of civilian staff could record with peace of mind.
The glass door of the hall had been closed and covered with a black curtain. All irrelevant people had left the hall, leaving only these thirteen people to talk with Chen Bin.
Why did Chen Bin talk here? To show his power? To prevent surveillance? To test the other party's sincerity? To prevent an ambush? None of them, he just wanted to play cards out of the ordinary, and there was no deep reason.
(*σ`)σ: Surprised, surprised, bored?
He knew that there might be a team of hundreds of people behind them analyzing, or some negotiation experts monitoring, etc., but none of them applied to this meeting, because he only needed to act as a repeater this time.
After the twelve people placed the equipment, Chen Bin exuded powerful magic. Well, it was about three times the magic of an adult wizard, just a normal outburst, without any spells.
All the computers on the long table turned black, all the electronic items in the lobby were also disturbed, and even the lights were blinking.
The skin of the thirteen people also felt a slight tingling sensation, especially Taylor, whose hair stood up all over his body, and his hands trembled unconsciously.
Muggles don't know what this means, but Taylor, as a wizard, knows at what level to rely solely on the human body's own magic to continuously interfere with electronic products.
(_): "I asked you to come here and take notes, just pick up the quill and write it down for me. I don't want to say it a second time."
Chen Bin's voice was not loud, and his face was just an ordinary poker face, but Taylor was so scared that she was sweating all over. She quickly stood up and bowed, saying: "Mr. Nama, I'm sorry. I will arrange it immediately."
She turned and glared at the Muggle colleagues around the long table, and shouted: "When I come back, don't let me see any electronic products in the venue!"
Then, she turned and bowed to Chen Bin again, and then disappeared with two "pops".
Twelve civilian staff members picked up their laptops and rushed to the nearest room as if they had picked up a time bomb.
Then, dozens of black suits rushed out of the same door and quickly emptied the movable electronic products in the hall. Those that could not be moved, such as emergency lights, metal detection doors, access control systems, etc., were all smashed and dismantled with hammers or wrenches, just to leave no fragments behind.
After they completely destroyed or removed the things, the twelve civil servants all changed into medieval robes and sat nervously around the long table. Everyone was watching their noses and their hearts, and they didn't say a word.
Chen Bin kept a poker face, but he was a little shocked. Whether they were acting or serious, this was also a very flattering gesture: Whatever you say, the Lun family will do it!
Is this still the powerful department that produces 007 in the movie?
Not long after, Taylor Apparated back again. She changed into wizard robes and brought quills, ink bottles and parchment to the people behind her.
Then, she turned around and bowed to Chen Bin again to apologize, and then slowly sat back in her seat.
(_): "Okay, I came here to tell you something important. You should hand over the records to the people who can make the decision. Is there anything you don't understand?"
Taylor shook his head, indicating that there was no problem.
Next came Chen Bin's boring recitation, which was a kind of acting, because all the contents were thought out by him, but he had to pretend to be Dumbledore's assistant, and he had to recite them word for word, and he was not allowed to have a script in his hand.
This was to perform for the Muggle authorities - no evidence was allowed to be left.
The super secrets that Chen Bin said came from the chairman of the International Confederation of Wizards, the chief wizard of the Wizengamot, the principal of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, the first-class medal holder of the Order of Merlin, and the strongest white wizard in Europe, that is, Dumbledore.
First, Chen Bin showed Dumbledore's handwritten letter, which had only one sentence: All the words Aaron Nama said were authorized by me, and you are welcome to verify them with me at any time. The following was Dumbledore's signature, seal, and the letter that blinded the magic world.
This letter does not need to be taken back, it needs to be given to Taylor to take to his superiors as a certificate.
After handing over the evidence, it's time to show real skills.
Chen Bin spent more than an hour "reciting" Deng's secrets, but the content can be summarized as follows:
1. Voldemort will be resurrected soon, and a war will inevitably happen in the wizarding world.
Two, if they could kill Voldemort, the Muggles wouldn't have to do anything.
3. If Voldemort wins, Muggle society will suffer unprecedented catastrophe, and the damage will be countless times that of the previous wizarding war.
4. In order to increase the success rate of the kill, the Ministry of Magic needs a lot of military expenditures and a large amount of equipment to deal with the possibility of Voldemort successfully escaping, that is, to start a full-scale war immediately after the kill fails.
5. The current Ministry of Magic cannot cope with the rise of Voldemort.
Based on the above five points, before proving Voldemort's resurrection, all expenses related to preparations for the war will be advanced by the Naama family, but the Muggle authorities must pay off the arrears immediately after obtaining the evidence.
The fee will be for "exclusive naming rights" to sponsor the Ministry of Magic, and does not preclude an increase in the fee on an annual or quarterly basis.
Chen Bin watered down such a brief content into a half-hour speech, not to abuse the twelve transcribers, but to circumvent the Ministry of Magic's detection magic.
Wizards like Taylor who have taken refuge in the Muggles will never return to the magical world, because this magic can not only identify who has betrayed the magical world in their hearts, but also can detect who has leaked the secrets of the magical world to the Muggle rulers.
Lao Deng has informed Chen Bin of the evasion techniques. Basically, this magic is countless times weaker than China's Heavenly Way. It only has the single function of notifying the Ministry of Magic, and has no real power to punish, nor does it have this power.
Chen Bin talked for more than an hour, going around in dozens of circles to tell the above information without revealing even a single word of the secret. This was his acting skills.
Twelve civilian staff recorded hand cramps, and finally waited for Chen Bin to close his mouth, then pick up the black tea on the coffee table and take a few sips.
"Do you have any questions? But I can't guarantee that I can answer immediately." When Chen Bin said this, Taylor didn't feel anything wrong at all, because she knew that this person had been perfectly avoiding all detection magic and had mentioned all the important points. out.
Taylor probed: "We have paid for the military, what are the benefits? Who will have the command?"
(_): "Of course, the command right is exclusive to the Ministry of Magic. You only have the exclusive naming rights of Auror, and it is expanded based on the five letters of Auror."
After a pause, Chen Bin added: "The good thing is that when the war breaks out, the Ministry of Magic can spare its manpower and try its best to reduce the damage to Muggle society."
Taylor almost laughed out of anger, but still maintained a sweet smile on his face. "Isn't this the same as before? It has always been your magical community's responsibility to protect modern society from wizards."
(_): "It's different. We will only help you if we have spare capacity. If you don't pay sponsorship this time, there will be absolutely no spare capacity."
"You..." Taylor couldn't bear it anymore, but he could only continue to bear it. "Is this your idea or Mr. Dumbledore's?"
"This is a fact, not an idea." Chen Bin continued to maintain a poker face and said calmly (_): "The last wizarding war was equivalent to the Northern Ireland conflict in your Muggle society; if the war really starts this time , its destructive power is definitely greater than your World War II.”
Seeing that Taylor's face became solemn, Chen Bin continued to intimidate: "We are defeated. At most, we will have a new leader to carry out high-pressure management, but your entire Muggle society will inevitably become slaves."
silence--
The two of them didn't speak, only the sound of rustling writing.
Taylor lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head and asked, "Is this what you think?"
"Just take it as my idea!" Chen Bin heard her ask the source of her idea many times and knew that the meeting should be over.
(_): "If you have any news, you can tell it to my investment company. Remember, the Naama family will only advance payment after getting a definite commitment. The later you reply, the less time we will have to prepare for war, even After a certain time limit, no amount of money you can give can save the situation.”
Then, without giving Taylor a chance to ask further questions, he disappeared through apparation.
In the next week, Taylor brought several people in black suits to Weiguo Yisha Investment Company almost every day, bargained constantly, and then reported back to the headquarters.
On the last day, Chen Bin became impatient and asked Dumbledore to apparate here to sit in battle.
As a result, within five minutes, Dumbledore answered three questions, and Taylor agreed on behalf of the royal family.
That's right, it was the representatives of the royal family and Lao Deng who were fighting from the beginning to the end.
Some distant relatives of the royal family also have wizard blood and have accounts in Gringotts. Otherwise, how could they pay the last arms sales bill?
It's just that these wizards are not accepted by the magic world because their ancestors supported the secular coalition to kill wizards during the witch-hunting war.
