Chapter 43 Asymmetric Negotiation
When Pierce saw Jasper Sitwell entering the reception room with two strangers, his face instantly became alert and he asked:
"Who are they? Don't you know what the situation is now? I have said many times, don't come to me easily unless it is important."
Jasper Sitwell quickly lowered his head and said: "Sorry, Minister, they are from Baron Strucker's faction.
Umbrella has recruited Baron Strucker, and now the boss of Umbrella wants to talk to you directly.
I think this is an emergency, so I brought them here."
Pierce was silent for a while. Recently, he naturally noticed the sudden emergence of Umbrella.
He also knew that the founder of Umbrella was a special human with superpowers.
But Umbrella actually recruited Baron Strucker's faction, which made Pierce's face a little uncertain.
After thinking for more than ten seconds, Pierce asked coldly: "Umbrella sent you two soldiers to talk to me?"
Two Umbrella clone security soldiers who had been searched and confirmed to be unarmed.
At this time, they heard Pierce's words, and took out the 3D holographic projection watch without saying a word and placed it on the long table in the conference room.
[Connect to the satellite network.]
[Establish an encrypted communication channel]
[Network communication link successful]
A holographic projection appeared, revealing Carl's full-body projection, which looked almost like a real person standing on the ground.
"Hello? I'm sorry that I can only meet you in this way for the time being, Mr. Minister.
You may have seen my personal profile from the information, but I still want to make a simple self-introduction.
I am Carl Davis, the actual controller of Umbrella, an ordinary arms dealer.
Again, I'm sorry to bother you so late, Mr. Minister, but I came to you this time mainly to discuss cooperation.
When I heard the inside story of Hydra from Baron Strucker.
In fact, I was very surprised that there was such a huge organization hidden in this world.
In view of the fact that Umbrella is currently being madly targeted and suppressed by SHIELD, I came to Mr. Pierce for help.
After all, I have become a member of Hydra now, and only by helping each other can we win together!"
Seeing that the other party's technology has been advanced to this point, Pierce is a little worried about the reliability of this communication method.
"This holographic projection does look very advanced, but how can we ensure that it will not be eavesdropped?"
At this time, Carl was far away in Manor No. 7 in Manhattan, and heard that Pierce was just worried about whether the encrypted communication was reliable.
He knew the underlying meaning of Pierce's words was that as long as the communication was proven to be reliable, cooperation could definitely be discussed.
So Carl smiled and introduced: "Although I don't want to show off, I still want to introduce you to the chief steward of Umbrella - the artificial intelligence Red Queen!
Mr. Pierce, you also know that Strucker has been researching various cutting-edge technologies.
Including artificial intelligence, intelligent robots, genetic enhancement technology, etc.
It's just that Strucker's luck is not very good. After so many years of research, he has not been able to come up with something that makes people's eyes shine.
When I recruited Strucker to establish Umbrella Corporation.
I went a step further on his basis and finally developed the artificial intelligence that is closest to intelligent life in the world.
That is Red Queen.
It can be said that the cyber world is almost defenseless for Red Queen.
How to prove it?
I have learned a lot of top-secret information about Mr. Pierce.
To know these top-secret information, But even Baron Strucker doesn't know.
For example, the Winter Soldier?
I think his name is Bucky Barnes, right?
He is an old man from the last century. Although his strength is average, he has helped you complete many tasks successfully.
Speaking of this, I have to say that your brainwashing technology is too low-level. You have to repeat the brainwashing work every once in a while?
Those six Winter Soldiers are lucky that they have not been turned into idiots by you.
In addition, what else is there. Insight Project? Zora Algorithm?
Oh. Uploading consciousness to the computer, this Dr. Zora is really brave. To be honest, I am quite interested in this technology.
And"
"Enough, I believe that it is impossible to be eavesdropped with your technology!"
Pierce finally couldn't help it. If Carl continued to talk, his past would be exposed.
In fact, even if many of Hydra's top-secret intelligence are archived through paper documents, it seems that they cannot be found in the online world.
In fact, in the process of executing the mission, it always depends on people to execute it.
In modern society, there are surveillance cameras everywhere, as well as people's social records, telephone communications, and big data archives.
You should know that even satellite encrypted communications will actually leave indelible traces.

However, the real reason why Carl knew so many secrets of Pierce was not really the credit of the Red Queen.
He was just an ordinary time traveler.
Pierce was already a little panicked, after all, Carl knew so much of his secret information, but he didn't know much about Umbrella.
This information asymmetry made him feel powerless for the first time in his many years in a high position.
"What do you want? If you think that knowing some secret information can make Hydra clean up your ass, you are wrong.
Hydra never accepts threats from others!
If you want SHIELD to give up targeting Umbrella, you have to hand over something of equal value. "
Pierce showed an uncompromising attitude.
He said that cooperation must be equal, and without sufficient exchange of interests, no secret threats would work.
Carl found it a little funny to see Pierce's cowardly look.
"Tsk tsk, if you could be a little tougher when you said this, and your tone would not be so guilty, maybe I would really believe it."
Pierce, who was exposed in front of him, was a little angry and said: "What do you want?"
Carl looked to his left, which was the direction of the door of Pierce's mansion. He said meaningfully:
"What do I want? It doesn't depend on me, but on whether you have something I like! "
Pierce felt that he was humiliating himself. Did he mean that he looked down on the strength of his own Hydra?
He couldn't help but grit his teeth and said, "If you are here to humiliate me, I will let you know."
Carl suddenly showed an unfathomable expression and interrupted him unceremoniously:
"In fact, all I want is to meet you once. Now my goal has been achieved."
Pierce was confused by Carl at this time.
"What do you mean? You want to meet me once just to humiliate me in person? You are so boring..."
Pierce was interrupted by a sudden change just halfway through his words.
"Bang——"
A deafening explosion sounded from outside the mansion.
