Global monopoly of technology

Chapter 723 [Blue Coast Technology Expo]

With the passage of time, Horizon Security's affairs temporarily came to an end, and Luo Sheng gradually shifted his energy from here.

At present, Auguste Fran, who is in charge of Horizon Security, is frequently being "interrogated" by major media. The reason for using the term "interrogation" to describe it is that what the company does in Lipia is Morally criticized wildly.

The main points of criticism include the overbearing "smuggling" of the huge sum of US$50 billion for their own possession. Another point is the ruthless attack on the local warlord forces during the transfer of US$50 billion, and two rounds of "justice from heaven." "Washing directly caused two-thirds of the casualties of the people who robbed the money, and more than 1,300 people were killed on the spot, so they were detained as "executioners".

The media in the United States and the United States are also criticizing and criticizing them, but the business contacts between them have not been pulled down at all. Horizon Security has its own public relations team and lawyers responsible for war of words and lawsuits.

In any case, the nature of Horizon Security is destined to become infamous sooner or later. As a private military company, this will happen sooner or later.

Whether it is a private military contractor such as Blackwater or Draken International, which one has a good reputation?

But reputation is really not important to these private military contractors. The reason is simple. The customer group is not the general public, and the gate of life is not in the hands of these people.

On the contrary, Horizon Security has established a good reputation in the industry, and many corporate customers are increasingly trusting and entrusting it to provide security services.

If it is a customer group such as Bluestar Technology and the Blue Coast that faces a large number of ordinary business companies, it is very important for the corporate reputation. If the reputation is too bad, it will face consumer resistance, which will affect the company's performance and income.

But for private military contractors, as long as the law cannot be sanctioned, other issues need not be concerned at all.

...

After Luo Sheng's energy was transferred from Horizon Security, he focused on the results of the Côte d'Azur Lab in the second half of this year. His private mailbox has received news about a series of technological breakthroughs in new graphene materials.

Research in this field has been in this field for more than ten years, and the corresponding topic demonstrations have been started almost since the establishment of the Côte d'Azur Laboratory, and the scale of funds invested today has reached hundreds of billions of dollars.

The scientific research staff under its banner are on the front line year after year and day after day. The breakthroughs in a series of technological achievements are either accidental, inevitable and predictable.

...

This afternoon, Luo Sheng came to the Galaxy City of the Blue Coast headquarters. An outdoor plaza inside is undergoing construction work in progress. From the perspective of the layout, a large-scale exhibition will be held.

"Mr. Luo, this is an exhibition project of the major subsidiaries and affiliated companies of the group company. There are a total of 1,289 start-up technology companies from 129 countries and regions around the world."

When the first person accompanied the super boss on the field, Yao Jianhong, the company's number two figure, walked quickly to his side and handed him the information in his hand.

Luo Sheng took it over and took a look. These affiliated companies, including Cao Junhui's Huachang Technology and Chen Xin's Bochuang Technology, are all on the list.

In the next August, a large-scale event called "Côte d’Azur Technology Expo" will be held. This is a new project of the company. From this year onwards, it will be held once a year in August, targeting the Côte d’Azur and A concentrated exhibition of major technological breakthroughs of its affiliated companies.

Few companies in the world can use the word "exposition" for their own technology exhibitions. Such a vocabulary is often called "exposition" when large-scale events organized by a large number of companies from many countries around the world participate. .

This exclusive Expo on the Côte d’Azur is fully qualified to use this term. Other than that, the close to 1,300 subsidiaries and affiliated companies of the group company is a very exaggerated number.

These companies are basically technology companies, most of which are investment-supported start-up technology companies. Medicine field, new material field, new energy field, etc.

"Well, it's pretty good. Let's go ahead as planned." Luo Sheng looked at the table of contents in general, and did not read too much in detail. He handed the information to Tang Xin, the assistant secretary who was accompanying him, and added to everyone: "This The grounding atmosphere mentioned in this event is a large-scale event of "seller show", highlighting one word-show! How to show how to come, to show off the technical background of our group company."

The person in charge of the accompanying event smiled and said: "President Luo, please rest assured that all departments are intensively cooperating with this event, and everything is going well."

Luo Sheng looked around for a week and said: "How many people can the venue accommodate?"

The person in charge of the event replied: "The daily flow of 150,000 people is completely stress-free. Big data analysis shows that the peak may reach the scale of 180,000 traffic, and the site can carry 200,000 traffic at the limit."

Luo Sheng said in a deep voice: "There are so many people from all over the world. The security and confidentiality work must be done well, the restricted traffic area must be clear, and unclear people must not be allowed to go to places where they should not go. Concentrate on this aspect of work."

The person in charge of the event nodded again and again. The workload in front of such a large event is already so large, and the workload behind the scenes will only be greater, and ordinary people can't see these tasks.

Luo Sheng said that he has to say so, but he is actually very relieved that Xiaona monitors the overall situation. In addition, the country also provides a lot of counterintelligence assistance, not only providing relevant agents, but also relevant Questioning consultant.

The technology of the Côte d’Azur company is not coveted by foreigners for a day or two. The country is also a treasure. It is not an exaggeration to say that even if Luo Sheng doesn’t care about it, someone will help him. Heart.

A large number of behind-the-scenes personnel's unknown work arrangements can ensure the smooth development of this expo.

...

As time went by, by the end of July, the Cote d'Azur Company held a press conference and officially announced the event day of the "2018 Cote d'Azur Science and Technology Expo". The event will last for a week, from August 25 to 31. until.

In fact, long before the official announcement, there were rumors in the industry. To hold such a big event, more than 1,000 affiliated companies have already notified in advance, it is impossible to hide them all.

In the name of a company called "Expo", few companies in the world have this confidence, but no one will doubt that the Côte d'Azur has this capital.

The more people understand Luo Sheng's business technology empire, the more they know how terrifying it is. Many European and American media often use the term "tentacles" to describe the expansion of this huge business technology empire.

After the official announcement, ticket sales began to target the outside world. The cost of the event was huge. Tickets must be collected. Although the overall sales must be "losing money and earning praise", the ticket revenue is not cheap.

Of course, the company does not lack money for activities, but this is not a reason to lose.

There are six types of tickets for the Expo: general tickets for designated days are 280 yuan, designated days discount tickets are 199 yuan, weekdays ordinary tickets are 200 yuan, weekdays discount tickets are 140 yuan, three-time tickets are 700 yuan, and seven-time tickets are 1200 yuan.

Relatively speaking, the ticket price is very cheap, everyone can afford it, and there will be no huge economic pressure because of this. For technology enthusiasts and enthusiasts, it is definitely worth the fare.

This is much cheaper than the ticket for the product launch of the Blue Coast company, but it is also because of the wide range of audiences. The company's internal big data analysis estimates that the total traffic of this Expo can reach one million.
