Chapter 240: #240 - Business Relocation

Luther is gambling.

Even though he has already extricated himself in advance, even though he has secretly transferred most of his assets, even though he has prepared a way out.

But once his plan fails, even if he has prepared a backup plan, he will still face considerable losses.

But as long as he can win, he will get everything he wants, and the government and the military will have no choice but to cooperate with him.

This is also why those in power haven't dealt with Luther immediately.

Of course, it would be best if they could directly control Luther and that biological weapon, but Luther has already run away, so they can only wait and see for now.

"Will it affect our car company?"

While clamping the phone between his shoulder and ear to talk to Victor, Kiyomizu tests the data for White Knight II, and still manages to spare some attention to watch the TV hanging on the wall.

Being able to manipulate three puppets simultaneously, he can naturally multitask.

Kiyomizu even feels that he is not far from being able to manipulate four puppets at the same time.

"I think it will have some impact, even if it hasn't manifested yet."

Victor stood outside the office, looking at the employees whispering to each other at their workstations, his expression serious.

Kiyomizu and Luther are TSL's most important financial backers. Now that Luther is missing, although LexCorp has not been sealed by the government, the morale inside is also unstable, even affecting TSL.

The latter took generations to integrate Wayne Enterprises into everything in Gotham, including food, clothing, housing, and transportation. Gotham cannot live without Wayne, and Wayne cannot live without Gotham.

At least the armed forces of Hogg United and its peripheral forces, plus the secondary Titan enhanced humans who already have a certain number, and Solomon Grundy, the human puppet with considerable combat power, are an extremely large force.

Unless a large-scale army equipped with unconventional thermal weapons is used to enter Gotham for street fighting, and a comprehensive economic blockade is imposed on Gotham, or Superman of this level is invited, it is impossible to destroy them.

And after that, there is Kiyomizu, who can be called a BOSS, waiting.

Two or three years is enough for Kiyomizu to create a force that no one can ignore.

"From a security perspective, it is suitable, but from a business development perspective, Gotham is no longer suitable for the development of high-tech enterprises. I have two other compromise suggestions."

"Tell me."

Kiyomizu put down the tool in his hand, picked up the phone, and watched the TV screen. Several experts in the fields of biology, military, and society were telling the host whether the experiments done by Superman and the military would bring harm to human society.

He didn't know that these people were paid.

One of Luther's purposes was to amplify public opinion and plant seeds in everyone's hearts.

And when the Doomsday he created erupts, even if all the truth is made public, then no matter whether he wins or loses, people will doubt Superman and fear Superman.

Because Luther has proven how much danger the existence of Kryptonians may bring.

As long as he is a Kryptonian, he may threaten the Earth.

As long as Superman is a Kryptonian, as long as he is still on Earth, he will always face this kind of doubt and this kind of distrust.

Not only outsiders will doubt him, but his companions will too.

If he doesn't have a perfect character comparable to a saint, and unswervingly sticks to his original intention, no one can withstand such an environment.

Obviously, Luther believes that since Superman grew up on Earth, he will have human weaknesses in terms of personality.

"Including Gotham, there are three options. Another option is to move the company to Central City, which is the most densely populated new first-tier city for high-tech enterprises. It is the best for the development of the company. Moreover, there is also the Flash team, and we also know Barry and them.

Secondly, there is Blüdhaven. I know that there are also many crime problems there, but it can't be compared with Gotham. The city's size is not that big, but with our ability, it is much easier to solve the problems there than to solve Gotham.

Gotham is our hometown. Although it is not suitable for our company's development, there are still other ways to complement it. Setting up a research and development center in Blüdhaven will allow us to obtain resources from both Gotham and Metropolis at the same time.

At the same time, we can transfer factories and downstream enterprises to Gotham, providing more jobs for Gotham. If we can develop the group into a world-class large enterprise, then it is entirely possible to drive the development of a city."

No mistake, one first, one hair, one inside, one capacity, one in one look!

Blüdhaven is a satellite city of Gotham.

After Nightwing graduated, he was actually stationed in this city most of the time.

Affected by Gotham, the crime problem there is also not small, but compared with Gotham, the folk customs are still slightly simpler, at least there are not so many powerful villainous figures.

With the size of Hogg United, it can quickly clear and integrate the local criminal forces, and the local political energy in Gotham can also easily affect that.

It's just that the starting stage will definitely be much slower, because the relevant construction of the city and everything else takes time, and many things are not as convenient as in Metropolis and Central City.

However, since Victor has proposed this place, it shows that emotionally, he is inclined to the latter approach.

But from a business perspective, Central City is a better choice.

But that is only considering the situation where Kiyomizu himself has the energy.

"Choose Blüdhaven. You help me write a plan later, and then contact Wayne Enterprises. I think they will agree to help promote this matter."

Due to historical legacy factors, Gotham's ills are difficult to reverse. It is extremely difficult to complete the city's transformation in a short period of a few years, or even more than ten years.

But starting from Gotham's satellite city, Blüdhaven, is also a roundabout solution.

After the enterprise is established, driving the development of related industries is enough to become a strong economic driving force, providing many jobs for Gotham.

Hanging up the phone, the talk show on TV has been suspended and started broadcasting the military's press conference.

There is nothing nutritious. The military's rhetoric is just trying to shirk responsibility as much as possible.
