Chapter 1,264 Variables

Not just devil bugs.

There may be other species deep in the mantle.

Jiang Chen tried to search for figures other than devil bugs from the memory of Gaia civilization, including those mounts that Gaia once rode on its crotch. However, unfortunately, the light ball did not explain those creatures to him one by one. What are their names?

But come to think of it.

If human civilization has to erect a tombstone for itself one day.

I'm afraid I won't put too much ink on those irrelevant things. At most, I will use powerful creatures such as lions or tigers to prove how I stood out from hundreds of tribes in ancient times and stood at the top of the food chain.

Dr. Amos's findings were included in the database, labeled as S-class secrets, and associated with Project 071. After hesitating for a while, Jiang Chen finally did not disclose the details about those species to the researchers of the devil bug research project team.

After all, he couldn't explain at all how he could be sure that there were Martian creatures other than devil bugs on Mars tens of millions of kilometers away without specimens.

This is designed into the memory of Gaia civilization.

As for the memory of Gaia civilization, it is the top secret of the S-class in the Star Ring trade, even higher than the confidentiality level of Crane particles...

After leaving Dr. Amos' laboratory, Jiang Chen returned to the office.

According to the secretary's report, President Zhang Yaping's assistant had been here during his absence.

"President Zhang's assistant? What does he want from me?" Jiang Chen asked.

"He left a letter and I put it on your desk." The secretary replied respectfully.

Jiang Chen found the letter on his desk, opened it, looked at it twice, and then placed it on the corner of the desk.

It's an invitation letter.

There will be a state banquet celebration dinner tomorrow night at the banquet hall in the heart of the ocean. The protagonist of the dinner was Zhang Yaping, leader of the Civil Liberties Party and President of New Zealand. The purpose was naturally to celebrate the election victory, thank his campaign sponsors, and at the same time communicate with all walks of life in New Zealand.

Those attending such banquets are mainly new country dignitaries, at least at the level of cabinet ministers and parliamentary speakers. besides,

There are also outstanding entrepreneurs from various industries, representatives of citizen groups, and even international financial giants... With Xinguo's current international influence, Jiang Chen, the leader of a third country, would not be surprised.

As a supporter of President Zhang, Jiang Chen naturally had to show his support when the time came.

After all, no matter what, those who are qualified to participate in the banquet are sensible people.

Everyone knows who is the biggest winner in this election.

…

After get off work, return home.

Jiang Chen was about to go to the bathroom to take a bath when he found Natasha standing at the door of the living room looking at him with an embarrassed expression on her face.

After waking up from the hangover, she had already heard Ayesha tell her what happened last night, including her drunken behavior and her vomiting Jiang Chen...

"Well, I'm sorry for last night."

Natasha, who was blushing and crossing her arms, scratched her cheek in embarrassment and looked away in embarrassment.

"It's okay." Jiang Chen rolled his eyes and put on his slippers.

Otherwise, what can be said?

After all, he himself was also responsible for what happened last night. If he hadn't wanted to tease her on a whim, that wouldn't have happened.

But to be honest, he didn't expect that she would work so hard and refuse to admit defeat even after she was so drunk...

Seeing Jiang Chen didn't speak, Natasha smiled sheepishly and said shyly next to her.

"By the way, I remember you said we were tied, right?"

"..."

Ignoring the girl who kept pestering him to ask about last night's victory or defeat, Jiang Chen went to the bathroom and took a hot shower.

After putting on fresh pajamas, Jiang Chen came out of the bathroom. Seeing that it was still a while before dinner time, he went straight to the study.

When he walked into the study, he found Ayesha sitting on the sofa waiting for him, so he walked over with a smile and sat next to her.

"The Morgan Consortium and the Rockefeller Consortium may have joined forces." Ayesha took out a document from her arms and gently placed it on Jiang Chen's knees. At the same time, she reached out and gently wiped the water drops on his neck.

"Joined forces?" Jiang Chen let the little hand gently wipe his neck. He looked at the document in his hand with interest and opened the first page. "I thought they were out."

“They would rather have someone come to power who claims to kill Wall Street than accept a dovish president.” Ayesha said softly, “These are Bernice’s exact words, which she heard from an informant. "

Jiang Chen looked at the document, and a look of seriousness gradually appeared in his eyes.

Morgan and Rockefeller team up?

He probably knew something before that Morgan was betting on Kerry, while Rockefeller, as always, was betting on Hillary. The two major consortiums are both members of the military-industrial complex. Whoever wins the bet will only affect the distribution of interests at most, and will not touch the interests of the other party too much.

Obviously, Morgan and the Rockefeller consortium believed that if Joseph Kennedy came to power, their common interests would be affected. After all, Mr. Kennedy Jr. mentioned many issues involving overseas U.S. troops, defense budgets, and foreign strategy in his campaign manifesto.

As for these issues, the U.S. military-industrial complex will never give in.

"Be prepared for the worst." Jiang Chen sighed, and after pondering for a moment, he continued, "Even if Joseph comes to power, I'm afraid there will be resistance from Congress. We must ensure that the initiative is taken at all times. It’s on our side.”

Aisha sat quietly next to her, waiting for Jiang Chen's instructions.

"How is the situation in South America?" Jiang Chen asked.

"What aspect are you referring to?" Aisha asked, tilting her head.

"Global Power Grid Plan." Jiang Chen said, "It has been more than a year. Our salesmen have just knocked on the door of Ecuador. The transmission corridor to Brazil is still not open. I want to know your progress there. Now it has arrived. Which step is it?"

Ecuador may be the only country in South America willing to open its door to the Halo trade, because the Halo trade has sent out signals more than once to prepare to build a new space elevator on the other side of the Pacific. Considering that the space elevator can only be built on the equator, Ecuador, which is located on the equator, has a natural advantage to compete for this project.

On the one hand, it covets the huge economic benefits brought by the space elevator, but on the other hand, it also has many problems such as energy shortage. Ecuador is naturally very courteous to the Star Ring trade, asking for land for land, policy for policy, and money... Nothing money.

Since last year, the United States has used South American countries to export nuclear power technology to contain the Star Ring trade and promote the global power grid in South America. Since the United States itself has a strong influence in this region, the Star Ring Trade cable was laid across the Pacific Ocean to Ecuador, but could not go further east to Brazil.

Peru and Colombia are like two mountains blocking the road, and these two countries are traditional allies of the United States, and of course they will stand on the side of the United States.

"This year is an election year in the United States. In previous years, the United States will adopt conservative policies during election years. This is our opportunity." Jiang Chen tapped his fingers on the armrest of the sofa. "If Colombia and Peru continue... Maintain a non-cooperative attitude and I will allow you to use special means."

The special means here naturally refer to providing weapons to anti-government armed forces, providing funds to the opposition, and other actions that may lead to war.

"Is it okay to do that at this time when we are supporting Joseph Kennedy's campaign?" Ayesha asked.

"No problem, as long as the Americans don't know that it's us who are doing this." Jiang Chen smiled, took out an invitation letter from his pocket, and handed it to Ayesha, "Are you free tomorrow night? Come to a dinner party with me.”

"Isn't Sister Shiyu here? She is more suitable to attend such an occasion than me..." I don't know why Jiang Chen suddenly changed the topic to this. Aisha looked slightly embarrassed and whispered.

She once accompanied Jiang Chen to a dinner party, but then she stopped attending.

The constricting feeling of the evening dress made her feel quite uneasy, and she was not good at alcoholic drinks and socializing. Even when attending a party, she followed Jiang Chen without saying a word, unable to bring him any help at all.

"Because we have to solve this problem as soon as possible." Jiang Chen shook the document in his hand and said with a smile, "And the way to solve the problem is at tomorrow's dinner."
