Containment control starts with the umbrella

Chapter 422: A Fascinating'Great Country'

Halfa time: April 14, 2020, 15:45.

Location: City of the Moon, VIP waiting area in Terminal 8 of Airport.

This is supposed to be the elites in suits and leather shoes, or real ladies wearing their own clothes, accessories, bags, and so on in the waiting area for passengers who buy the top class Um-255.

But in the current waiting area, except for the Umbrella Marines stationed here, no other passengers were seen.

Because this airport was temporarily disabled at Serena’s signal after 14:00 today, which resulted in only the necessary personnel remaining in the entire terminal building, as well as ensuring the safety here. Marine Corps.

After all, a group of delegations will arrive at Airport No. 8 in a civilian version of Um-255 in the near future, and the airport will be temporarily closed for safety reasons.

As for William and Serena, they were in a VIP waiting room in the airport, waiting for the Um-255 carrying a delegation to arrive.

The room is just a simple lounge, with only a comfortable sofa, a virtual window that simulates natural scenery, and a holographic projection device installed in the center of the ceiling.

The projection device allows passengers to watch various movies and TV series of'Umbrella-TV' for free.

As early as more than ten years ago, William had the idea of ​​acquiring Disney. Of course, not long after that, he did indeed acquire many copyright owners, including Disney.

This means that most of the IPs of sci-fi movies, games, novels, animations and animations on the scene have been acquired by Umbrella.

As a victim of'VVIP' watching drama in his previous life, William hated all kinds of vices and methods of capitalists, although he is also a capitalist now.

However, he asked the film and television department to launch an'Umbrella-TV' app seven years ago.

Users who download Umbrella-TV only need to pay a membership fee of seven dollars a year to watch all Umbrella's movies that have been removed from theaters, as well as various TV series, animations and animations that are being serialized.

Even users who have not paid the membership fee can still experience watching the first three episodes of the series, the first fifteen minutes of the movie, and there are no ads!

That's right, there are no ads, no ads for member users or not.

When William was in his previous life, he was so annoyed with advertisements. Even with members, he sometimes had to skip the advertisements manually, which was extremely annoying.

And Umbrella doesn't lack this big advertising fee, not just tens of millions of dollars?If it's too much, it's a few hundred million.

William is not uncommon, and he has never thought about making a profit when starting Umbrella-TV, it is purely to serve the society.

Of course, William did this to allow ordinary people to increase their favorability for Umbrella.

Piracy... it is impossible to be pirated.

If even piracy can't be eliminated, then Serena and other artificial intelligences no longer need to supervise human society, and they have long been fired by the boss of William.

So this can guarantee the interests of every user who spends money, and it can also make those dedicated users of pirates have to pay attention to the true meaning of copyright.

Now William is sitting on the sofa with Serena, watching the new play on holographic projection.

Although in more than ten minutes, William will receive representatives of various countries and forces in human society, but he does not bother to make preparations before the meeting.

He has been dealing with this group of politicians for more than ten years, and Umbrella’s strength lies here, borrowing a famous saying from the'hometown people (people from the motherland)':

I can do what I want.

"Boss." Serena, who was sitting next to William, suddenly had a faint blue light in her eyes, and then said to William:

"The delegation's plane will arrive soon. Let's go out and wait for them."

"Well, if you let others know that we are watching a drama here, the impact will not be good, ha ha." William stood up while laughing.

Serena also got up quickly, helped him sort out the folds behind the uniform, and reminded him softly:

"This meeting determines the future security of the colonies, and also allows countries that are not members of the UNSC to abandon their prejudices and join the UNSC. So boss, you should pay more attention."

"Okay, I see." William still responded with a faint smile.

After Serena helped him tidy up his appearance, the two of them left the room and headed to the center of the hall under the escort of eight Spartans.

--------------------

A few minutes later.

The exit lobby below the VIP waiting area of ​​the airport.

Eight Spartans guarding William stood in the center of the hall, and the heavily armed Marines were also deployed around the entire hall to guard.

At this moment, at the exit directly in front of William and the others, a group of people in suits, earphones and sunglasses came out and approached the hall first.

The vast majority of this group of people are agents of the UNSC Secret Service, and their level of strength is comparable to that of the UNSC Special Command, and they are used to protect UNSC senior personnel.

As the Secret Service agents walked out, a group of UNSC officials and generals in suits and military uniforms also came to the hall.

William shook hands with the officials and generals in turn to greet each other, and the secret service agents surrounded them one after another, guarding with the eight Spartans from the Shadow Team.

The delegates who walked out from the exit did not have a scene like the UNSC, and there was no group of secret service agents to protect their safety.

It was the Marine Corps to which Umbrella belonged, protecting this group of representatives to the lobby.

This group of representatives represents those countries that have not joined the UNSC.

The vast majority are countries in Africa, Southeast Asia and some South America, so they appear to be relatively'poor'.

These countries did not choose to join the UNSC because they had a feast with UNSC member states, but now...

Obviously, I couldn't make it, so I rushed to this meeting.

The'culprit' who encouraged these countries not to join the UNSC is India, which is located in South Asia and claims to be a big country.

Because the main council (management) of the UNSC is still the former five permanent members, India is very dissatisfied, so it refuses to participate in the meeting to establish the UNSC.

He even encouraged some unreasonable countries to boycott together, believing that the UNSC would not be established without India.

But the result...

Obviously, the UNSC is not only established, but under the technology provided by Umbrella and UNSC's leadership, member states are becoming more and more prosperous.

India and some countries that failed to participate in the UNSC have become more and more isolated, and business exchanges are no longer frequent.

But even so, India, a face-saving country, was stupefied for nearly ten years and couldn't bear to join the UNSC.

Even in the incident where the giant beasts attacked various coastal cities, India also suffered heavy losses. Among them was Mumbai, which India proudly ranks as the most developed city in the world.

UNSC was able to help each other, supported by Umbrella's engineering team, and began to slowly overcome the disaster caused by the monster.

But India, as well as these countries fooled by India, have no such good luck and strength, and it hasn’t slowed down until now.

India, the country with the best face, was forced by the increasingly turbulent situation in the country, so it had to face down and participate in this meeting.
