Chapter 240: Chapter 240
Robert's words caused an uproar in an instant!
Ten supporting actors!
Not Elena!
But only the ten supporting actors!
The ten supporting actors were under Lunanica Media.
But they were terribly awful, be it their characters.or their acting skills.
It was clearly shown in the movie that their acting was too often exaggerated.
They were pompous and their bad reputation preceded them.
Any person or company would detest them.
It was really unexpected that Robert and his team would want to buy them over!
And all ten of them would be bought over at the same time!
It was simply unbelievable!
Were Robert and his team crazy?
Everyone looked at Robert strangely.
Robert in turn looked around and glimpsed at everyone of present.
Looking at the confusion and bewilderment in their eyes, Robert heaved a sigh of relief.
It was exactly what he had expected!
Everything was under his control!
To understand the reason for Robert's team making an appearance here this day, the story dated back to two days ago.
It started from the night before the movie was released.
Both the experts from the Pharmaceutical Association and the Medical Association received an invitation from Lunanica Media for the movie premiere.
The experts from the Medical Association had the same reaction as Christopher, the chairman of the Pharmaceutical Association.
In the initial part of the movie, everyone was criticizing and mocking the terrible acting and editing of the movie.
However, toward the end of the movie, several experts were astonished.
They repeated watching the few scenes for further scrutiny.
Their eyes widened in stupefaction as they watched for another few more times.
In the end, the eeriness gradually turned into shock and horror!
They noticed an incredible detaill
In fact, there were ten of them!
It was as though they had discovered dragons or apparitions in the real world.
It was simply impossible!
Unfortunately, as if the editing was intentionally done in such a way, whenever the truth was about to be revealed, the movie would skip to the next scene.
It made the experts fume with rage.
They were obviously intrigued yet they could not find the answer in the movie..
Everyone was left hanging!
The elders of the Medical Association called each other for clarification.
They gathered in the office in the middle of the night.
They were all in shock.
They asked one another. "Are you sure that those things are true? Or is Lunanica Media trying to pull some tricks?"
It was a question everyone had in mind.
The leader among the experts, Maxwell Song pondered for a long time and spoke, "I believe that they are true. It is impossible for all these ten things to appear as a coincidence. Moreover, these things have been long lost without a trace in this world."
He paused for a while and added. Think about it. People in Lunanica Media don't know anything about medicine, How could they fabricate those things out of thin air? We'll give them the benefit of the doubt if it is only one but there are ten of them! Do you still think it is a coincidence?"
Another expert voiced, "Honestly, although these ten items have been long lost, some of them have appeared a few times in ancient records. Well, each is incomplete.
"I compared the records overnight with the ones in the movie. they were exactly the same! The ones in the movie are more detailed than those being documented!" a man in his sixties chimed in.
"This is beyond comprehension! I believe none of us will be able to collect those ancient records, let alone laymen like the staff members in Lunanica Media.
Maxwell nodded. "A bold guess from me: Lunanica Media actually holds treasures we don't know yet! That's why they invited us to the movie premiere! Only we, the old freaks could possibly recognize them!"
Everyone was excited.
What a miracle!
Their blood was boiling with jubilance for they had witnessed ten miracles occurring at the same time!
If they obtained these ten miracles, it would definitely be a breakthrough discovery in the entire medical world.
They would garner wealth that would sustain them for generations!
It would also bring them fame and fortune to their fingertips!
Even though these experts no longer cared about fame and wealth, they could not help feeling passionate and excited about this miraculous discovery.
This was like a godsend opportunity for everyone!
"So what do you think we should do?" someone asked Maxwell pondered for a moment and replied, his eyes sparkling, "We'll get them at all cost! I am going to bring Robert in for the next step. Are you guys in?"
Everyone hesitated.
At all cost?
The price would be huge!
Although Maxwell sounded convincing, it was just his hypothesis; no one had seen the real evidence.
It was a huge bet!
Seeing the hesitance in their faces, a glint of malice flashed across Maxwell's eyes and he continued, "Gentlemen, if you've forgotten, let me remind you about that old man, Christopher Hoo from the Pharmaceutical Association. He is terminally ill and there will be only one thing which can save his life.
"We do not know if it's a coincidence that such items actually appeared in the movie. I believe Christopher would have also watched the movie, too. If he were to obtain these items before us, we will suffer under his brutal suppression in many more years."
Maxwell's words were like a bomb, exploded in everyone's heart.
Displeasure began to cloud everyone's expression.
They were unwilling to succumb to Christopher!
They were unwilling to give up their honor and dignity too!
D*mn!
They were going to give it a try, though the price was huge!
If they lost this bet, then all fame and fortune would be lost! If they won, they would become legends and their names would be remembered for centuries!
Everyone nodded in agreement and was willing to send their respective spokesperson to Lunanica Media to get those items in hand as soon as possible.
The team of spokespersons headed by Robert gathered again for a meeting the next morning.
Although they were called the spokespersons, in fact, they were from various finance consortium supporting the experts who appointed them.
Each expert had a finance consortium to fund each of their scientific researches.
Every piece of their research could yield huge returns to these consortia.
It was a win-win cooperation. Each of them benefited from each other. Robert and the team were naturally not going to take those items at all costs, as expected by the experts.
They were businessmen and had their own ways.
They would leverage all resources; they would only go the extra mile to get what they wanted.
They had many means and tactics up their sleeves.
Their first consideration was always to maximize profits for the consortium.
Therefore, Robert and the team decided to collect some intelligence first.
Robert immediately laughed eerily when he was given a pile of documents.
"It seems like Lunanica isn't aware that they are holding such precious items. If that's the case, they shouldn't blame me for taking these items away!"
Robert's eerie guffaws echoed off the wall. "How ignorant! These treasures should be ours then!"
