Chapter 1626
The virtual world, the entrance to the instance of Jialan Empire.
The players sitting on the starship landing craft waiting for the instance to start completely ignored the NPC sitting next to them, and started chatting to pass the time.
A player wearing a silver helmet suddenly raised his head and brought the topic to real news.
"Have you heard? The John Griffin exhibition!"
Sitting opposite the player with the silver helmet, the player in the large power armor touched the back of his head and said something inexplicably.
"Is that the painter who calls himself a surrealist artist? Anarchist Martian?"
"What is self-proclaimed? It's a well-recognized boss in the art world, okay? I don't care about his political views. I only heard that he seems to be wandering on Mars."
"I don't know, I don't understand art, so what happened?"
"Just yesterday, he held a painting exhibition in the Central Museum to raise funds for the Nanmen Second Colonial Project, and exhibited his works that took a year to complete in the exhibition! It is said that whether it is the works to be exhibited, or The layout of the exhibition hall is epochal in the entire art history...Of course this is not the point!"
Seeing that the guy with the silver helmet was still playing tricks, the man in the brown jacket fashion sitting next to him couldn't help it anymore, and urged anxiously.
"What's the point? You said it!"
"The point is that Lu Zhou has also gone!"
Hearing this, not only the man in the brown jacket fashion, but everyone sitting next to him was shocked.
Even the NPC officer, who was still wiping the electromagnetic rifle there, had a surprised expression on his face, as if he was very familiar with the name Lu Zhou.
"...You mean, that Academician Lu?" The man in the brown jacket stared dumbfounded at the player in the silver helmet and couldn't help asking, "The greatest scholar of the 21st century?"
"It's not just the 21st century!" He squinted at the guy as if he was looking at the mentally retarded, and the player wearing the silver helmet continued in a calm tone, "He who has solved the second-generation controllable fusion and superluminal technology, even if Looking forward to the 22nd century, which has just begun, we may not be able to find a greater scholar than him!"
Having said that, a mysterious smile suddenly appeared on his face, he glanced around at everyone sitting beside him, and said in a low voice.
"And I heard that at the art exhibition, Academician Lu gave a very high evaluation of Mr. Griffin's paintings and artistic concepts, and also expressed his approval of the alien system colonization plan. You know, his judgment is rarely Wrong, it can even be said that I haven’t missed it so far.”
As soon as these words were uttered, everyone in the entire cabin was shocked, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively.
"Fuck! Is it true?!"
"Isn't it a lie!"
"Crap! I would have grabbed two boat tickets if I knew it!"
"You think too much, unless you go to Mars in advance, or find a reliable agent, otherwise there will be a delay of nearly 20 minutes on the earth, and when the button of the gun ticket pops up, nothing will happen!"
Looking at the chattering people, the player in the silver-white helmet gave a dry cough, raised his hand to signal them to be quiet, then continued to talk about the gossip he had heard from, and analyzed it logically.
"I don't think it can be faked! After all, the president of Tiangong Bank is on the scene. Later, he approved the application for the 100 billion credit point corporate bond issued by the Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Foundation. With the land of the New World as collateral, the maturity It can be redeemed for the permanent land use rights of the corresponding area, and can also be converted into shares or directly redeemed for interest! No one can guarantee that they will make money, but I can be sure that with the support of Academician Lu, they will definitely be able to sail there!"
Listening to this bewitching voice, many people sitting in the cabin held their breath.
Several players even went offline directly, not even playing the legendary dungeon for a while.
Tickets are not easy to grab, but there should still be a chance to grab the 100 billion credit point corporate bonds guaranteed by New World Land.
Even if those financial giants and bankers are interested in this 100 billion credit point cake, they will not eat the whole cake, and some soup will always leak out.
It's not that no one is concerned about the risks involved, but thinking that even Professor Lu is optimistic about the alien system colonization plan, the remaining worries are gone with the wind...
A similar scene is not only happening in the Jialan Empire in the virtual world, a storm sweeping the financial world has been brewing for a long time in the real world.
The official websites of a series of local banks on the earth, including Pan Asia Bank, Shanghai Bank of Beijing, etc., were crowded by the sudden surge in visits, and the network situation appeared.
Although the problem was solved in a timely manner and did not cause any information security accidents, it still shocked the managers responsible for selling these corporate bonds.
Before this, although they expected that the 100 billion corporate bonds would be snapped up like the boat tickets issued in advance, they did not expect people's enthusiasm to grow like beer foam.
It can only be said that Pan-Asia Cooperation is really rich, and the 100 billion corporate debt is not even enough for them to share.
Not only pan-Asian enterprises, but also hundreds of millions of families. In the development of space resources for nearly a century, the wealth of the entire society has been expanding rapidly. Whether it is a company or an individual, whether it is related to it or not, it has more or less accumulated huge wealth. wealth.
Therefore, they, who have tasted the sweetness of this cake, are afraid that they will miss the opportunity to make a fortune in front of them.
In less than two hours, 100 billion corporate bonds were sold out.
If, just a few days ago, the construction of this "Noah's Ark" was the work of the Nanmen Second Colonial Exploration Foundation, then now, this dream has been completely taken over by the citizens and enterprises of the Pan-Asian Cooperation.
Everyone hopes that this big ship carrying dreams will be built as soon as possible, and everyone hopes that the colonists who open up the new continent will set off as soon as possible, and bring them endless gold and silver treasures from the land of the alien system...
And when Lu Zhou learned the whole story from the email sent by Xiao Ai, it was already at night...
...
Star Hotel.
After watching the Martian news on the holographic screen, Lu Zhou stretched out his hands and pinched the bridge of his nose with some headaches.
"...I have never said that I am optimistic about the colonization plan of the South Gate II Galaxy Exploration and Colonization Foundation. At most, I have just expressed that I agree with the artistic ideals of that Mr. Griffin."
Looking at Lu Zhou with a headache, Professor Wu Qinglai stood at the desk tremblingly, with embarrassment written all over his face.
"Sorry... I seem to have caused you trouble."
Thinking that this guy seems to have bought several tickets, Lu Zhou raised his head and gave him a sideways glance.
"I'm afraid you made a lot of money."
With a slightly embarrassed expression on his face, Wu Qinglai coughed dryly and said.
"Uh, I can give you half."
"roll."
Seeing that Academician Lu was showing signs of getting angry, Wu Qinglai, who knew he was in the wrong, quickly shut his mouth, turned around and prepared to flee.
However, before he took two steps, he was called back by Lu Zhou.
"Wait a moment."
He hurriedly stopped, Wu Qing turned his head back and forth, and asked with an embarrassed smile on his face.
"Uh, what's the matter?"
"Who sold you that ticket?"
Hearing this sentence, Wu Qinglai was slightly taken aback, then shook his head.
"Actually... I didn't buy it with money, but gave it to me when I was grabbing the boat ticket."
Lu Zhou raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Sent?"
"...Yes," Professor Wu said in a low voice when he saw that there was something wrong with the expression on Lu Zhou's face, "Is there any problem?"
"Nothing, let's go."
Nodding his head inexplicably, Wu Qinglai turned and left the room, closing the door behind him.
Facing the empty room, Lu Zhou stroked his chin and thought for a moment, falling into deep thought.
If he remembered correctly, the art exhibition should be aimed at the upper class of Mars, and he didn't see anyone in plain clothes at the scene at this time.
He really couldn't imagine that the tickets for this kind of exhibition were placed on the ticket purchase page as a gift...
