Especially after Hua Nuclear Group's wholly-owned subsidiary was established in Xilin.
In the United States, Washington, in a conference room at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Romand Willi finally had the opportunity to sit in the conference room with a host of bigwigs to discuss whether the material model was effective and express his own opinions.
"Gentlemen, isn't the situation clear now? This so-called material science model in our hands is a trap; the Huaxia people are trying to control our decision-making with something they call 'activation codes'! If this model were really useful, in the current environment, they would never sell us the so-called activation codes!"
I even suspect they are using this tactic to test our bottom line. Believe me, even if we are very close to the so-called new element isotopes, new materials, they would still sell us the activation codes without hesitation if we showed the intention to buy again.
But in reality, all that money is wasted! Nobody would sell a technology worth trillions for just a few billion. The Huaxia people are not that stupid! So my suggestion is to simply seal away this model. Of course, if there is a need to research it further, we can, but not through these so-called activation codes."
Romand Willi loudly stated his opinion.
There were no fools in this office, including the old man who seemed to be squinting and on the verge of falling asleep.
So he spoke loudly, just hoping to wake these people up and stop them from making futile attempts.
At one point, Romand Willi felt as if he were a coachman driving a horse carriage towards the edge of a cliff, hoping to change the direction of the foolish beasts before the carriage plummeted down.
Otherwise, if they continued to be extorted and deceived by the Huaxia people in this way, who knows what might happen in the future.
He hoped these people could remember the glorious history of the empire.
There was a time when the empire took whatever it wanted without having to buy it, let alone buy it multiple times!
In Romand Willi's view, every purchase of the so-called model activation code was a slap to his own face.
It was no longer just about the money.
If the empire's allies found out about all the details in the future, that they actually spent money on these useless things from the Huaxia people, what would they think? Once they all knew that the empire started to negotiate with scammers, it could be the beginning of the collapse of the empire's credibility.
Yes, Romand Willi had seen clearly, the so-called artificial intelligence was an outright scammer, and the material model was a clumsy scam.
"Oh? So you're saying our man from Langley has gone to great lengths to bring back something fake?" someone asked with raised eyebrows and a frivolous tone.
After a moment of silence, Romand Willi spoke, "We must admit that we oversimplified the problem before. The model might be real, but one thing we must acknowledge is that it is not under control."
"See, Romand, you aren't sure after all."
"No, I am certain. Or we could make a bet, I can use the contact information left from last time to contact the other party and buy the activation code again right now, and it, the so-called artificial intelligence, will be eager to sell us the so-called activation codes again!"
Romand Willi retorted with a hint of sarcasm.
"A childish bet," someone commented.
Hearing this, Romand Willi didn't want to waste more words, he felt he must make these people understand who was more naïve. The first step to achieve this was to let them see the greedy face of the artificial intelligence opposite them. He even hoped they could see their own stupidity through its greed.
So Romand Willi simply said coldly, "Why not let us try it first! Even if no one dares to accept this bet."
"Well, why not? Since Mr. Romand wants to teach us a lesson so badly, maybe we should give him this chance."
"I agree with Mr. Raynard's opinion, since Mr. Willi is so keen to demonstrate his judgment, let us see."
After a few simple arguments, a computer was eventually placed on the conference table in front of Romand Willi.
Before opening the computer, Romand Willi looked around at everyone at the table, then he confidently accessed his email.
The email address to contact Dou Dou was etched firmly in his memory.
It was, after all, his life's shame, and thus the memory was deep.
Soon, he sent an email expressing his desire to continue to purchase activation codes.
As usual, the reply came quickly, in less than ten seconds, an email was back.
Despite his poor impression of artificial intelligence, he had to admit that the thing was highly efficient. At least, the response time for emails depended largely on the speed of the internet.
After scanning the crowd once more, Romand Willi opened the email.
While doing all this, Romand Willi felt a sense of regret that the meeting room wasn't equipped with multimedia devices. Otherwise, he could have shown these people the greedy tone of the artificial intelligence immediately.
The next moment, as the contents of the email appeared before his eyes, Romand Willi was instantly stunned.
"Sorry, as our most recent inspection revealed that the material model test version could also reverse engineer restricted content, we are temporarily suspending our material activation code service. We will resume service once we overcome the current technical challenges, please wait for further notice.
I offer my sincerest apologies on behalf of myself to those affected by this decision and hope you can be patient, looking forward to a more pleasant cooperation in the future."
What's going on? Artificial intelligence isn't scamming for money anymore?!
