Chapter 1256: Convincing Paris

"You mean... those 'out-of-control' situations are man-made?"

Paris said in shock.

Lin Yu nodded. "Of course, although fear is a risky and uncontrollable energy source, to say that it carries the risk of being completely banned by law is a bit too much."

"All projects were shut down, and even laws were issued. Naturally, it was because of 'profit'—Mr. Paris, this kind of thing should be familiar to you."

"It's not that there's 'fear' of energy dangers, but that some people don't want to 'fear' safety."

Paris, who had climbed from the bottom to the position of president and was an inspirational legendary idol in the city that never sleeps, naturally understood what Lin Yu meant.

"Interesting. You mean...someone back then didn't want to see 'Fear' developed, so they deliberately exaggerated the dangers and hazards of the project, even going so far as to 'create an accident,' right?"

Lin Yu nodded: "Of course."

Paris pondered for a moment. "I know you're trying to convince me with this, but honestly... if 'Fear' really was stigmatized and forced to shut down because it offended someone or a certain faction, then restarting 'Fear' in that case... might not even be as convenient as knowing that 'Fear' itself has major flaws."

"After all, if 'fear' has flaws, you just need to overcome the flaws themselves... But if fear was stigmatized back then, that means we need to once again fight the same people who stigmatized 'fear'—and they've already proven how powerful they are—a new energy project that could allow Truth Company to rapidly develop again has been completely stifled and blocked by them."

Paris said, and Lin Yu nodded.

"Of course, this does cause some 'trouble'...that's why I found you."

Lin Yu looked at President Paris and said with a smile.

The smile that Paris had always worn on his face disappeared: "I'm sorry, Director Arthur, it seems that you think too highly of me."

"Admittedly, I've reached the position of president of Truth Company, and I'm certainly not a powerless mascot. In the eyes of many in Nightless City, I might already be considered a 'successful person' and 'upper class'... However, you also have B-1 level clearance. You shouldn't be as naive as those idiots from the outer city, thinking that I really have the final say in Truth Company, right?"

"Honestly, the only thing I can make a completely independent decision on is something like having the subsidiary launch orange juice soda. If a true noble wants to mess with me... even if it's just a viscount or earl, those naturally noble gentlemen who master alchemy and hold company shares can just say a word and I'll get out of this company," Paris said self-deprecatingly. "You want me to join you in fighting against those who silently wiped out the development prospects of an entire large-scale project? What a joke!"

Paris' tone was full of disbelief and questioning.

but……

Lin Yu knew that although Paris appeared very determined, this old fox did not really want to persuade the "B-1 level manager" who wanted to restart the project to quit.

It's all a performance - to test whether you are qualified by showing weakness.

After all, Lin Yu knew very well that although Paris was right and he was indeed not an important figure compared to the nobles, he was not so insignificant.

At least, the little nobles in the City That Never Sleeps must show friendliness when they meet Paris.

The reason is simple...

"Don't act like you're alone. Sitting in this position, everyone knows that the future master of the Buyetian family is standing behind you," Lin Yu laughed. "I don't think there's any faction in this city that's more powerful than the one you're in, Mr. President."

"That's why I recruited you, Mr. President. Everyone has something to pursue, and I'm no exception."

"I'm not content with the B-1 rank. 'Fear' is the best opportunity I see—and I can't handle it myself."

"So, I've found you not just because I need you, but because you also need me, you need Fear. You and your biggest supporter may be powerful enough, but you need a victory that will make you the sole voice within Truth Company for at least the next fifty years."

"And 'fear'... this project has risks, but it's not 'icing on the cake', it's 'the final word'."

When Paris heard Lin Yu say this, he naturally gave this guy the okay in his mind after he passed the first level of the test.

This "B-1 level manager" who suddenly appeared was not a fool who had no idea about the market and how Truth Company and the City That Never Sleeps operated.

The other party who proposed to restart the "Fear" project was not a small-time person who was full of passion or blinded by interests.

So, Paris leaned forward slightly, supported his knee with one hand and supported the table with the other, stared at Lin Yu, and finally spoke.

"I need to know your confidence. The 'Fear' project has been abandoned for too long. It's just a 'supply product'. It's not enough to convince me or the people behind me."

"She stands at the highest point in the city that never sleeps. What she's seen and experienced may be worth more than the sum of your entire life... So if you want her to take risks for you, you must bring the real deal—the real deal worthy of the 'final word' you just mentioned!"

Paris said, and Lin Yu laughed.

"Of course, as I said, even if Professor Dot were to be resurrected, he wouldn't understand fear any better than I do."

Lin Yu said, put away Chat's supplies, and then took out...

【Ancient Notes】.

Of course, it was disguised.

"These are some special, modified 'universal recording papers' that I modified myself. They contain the core data I collected from the 'fear' experiment. They can be reproduced—based on emotional alchemy, the technology of transforming emotions into energy and materializing them is not uncommon anymore."

"But... the most special thing about 'fear' energy is that it can 'create' life-like matter—this is also what makes fear energy considered most dangerous."

"A large amount of fear gathering will produce signs similar to life activities."

"Although it's not a real life, but just thinking about this... Mr. President, you can imagine how broad the prospects are, right?"

"If you want to verify the authenticity of this, I can recreate the scene for you so you can watch and experience it yourself!"
