Chapter 101 The reception of the Creator
The Skyrise Tower, a colossal structure that pierced the sky in Wavehaven CBD, was a sight to behold. At its zenith, four monumental structures stood in silence, their high-tech blue light flickering amidst the mist, creating an otherworldly spectacle.
Visible from half of Wavehaven, the Gemini app network was a symbol of power and influence, casting its shadow over countless startups, internet companies, and economic evaluation agencies.
Even Elbert, looking up from below, couldn't help but secretly exclaim, "How impressive!"
Entering the lobby and passing through multiple security checkpoints, the security guards gave him respectful looks all the way. Robert had already set up Elbert's identity as a Gemini app employee in advance. As the elevator doors opened, even Elbert, who usually kept a straight face, couldn't help but brighten up.
Inside the elevator, a select group of individuals stood, including two imposing bodyguards and an efficient assistant. At the heart of this entourage was a woman of unparalleled beauty, a perfect blend of European charm and Veridianian allure.
Her luxury brand trench coat, black tailored suit pants, and exquisite black stiletto heels accentuated her elegance. Her shoulder-length black hair framed a face that exuded the essence of Veridianian beauty, but it was her crystal-clear blue eyes that held the power to captivate anyone who dared to meet her gaze.
The most striking feature was her extremely slender waist, but her chest was full and firm, almost bursting out of her white shirt. Elbert's gaze was drawn for 0.1 seconds.
He pursed his lips and turned his head—after all, staring at someone for too long was quite rude. Elbert turned to press the elevator button, only to see that the floor had already been pressed—the 87th floor. So, this group was also going to Gemini app. Elbert stood with his hands behind his back.
He saw the assistant of the mixed-race beauty squeeze forward. This was a middle-aged woman, about 40 years old, wearing black-framed glasses with an oily face. She looked like someone frustrated and cynical. The assistant squeezed in front of Elbert, shoving her body and almost pushing Elbert into the corner. Her expression was full of disdain, and the look on her face could be summed up in one phrase: "You filthy men, stay away from my boss!"
The mixed-race beauty who was the leader calmly observed Elbert, her eyes showing both some interest and a natural arrogance. Elbert returned her a smile.
When the elevator doors opened on the 87th floor, it was a stunning sight. It was a clean and upscale open space. In the distance, behind a ten-meter-long marble bar, the word "Creator" was carved and emitted a refined and grand light.
Further away, at the workstations, professionals in business attire were bustling around, very busy. The group stepped out of the elevator, and several cameras on the ceiling turned to scan the group.
A soft electronic voice said, "Miss Elowen from Fubo Capital, welcome! It is an honor to see you in person. Your beauty and grace have amazed Gemini! Gemini has verified and found your appointment in 20 minutes. Please wait; someone will attend to you shortly."
'Alvin, you have a sharp mind!' Elbert nodded silently in approval.
He noticed Alvin used facial recognition cameras to scan visitors as soon as they entered and connected the data to the Gemini app information database to retrieve the visitor's information accurately.
Every visitor would hear a personalized welcome message the moment they entered, with each welcome message being completely different.
The mixed-race beauty named Elowen Winter also showed a hint of surprise in her eyes. She then smiled and nodded, very pleased with this welcome method.
Behind the bar, two beautiful women in professional black silk suits, each with at least an 8 out of 10 appearances, walked out with a smile. Their makeup was identical, and they each wore a shiny silver service badge on their chest.
"Miss Winter, welcome to Creator Company. Please follow us to the lounge for a short rest."
The two receptionists had sweet voices and perfect attitudes. At the same time, the cameras slightly turned, continuing to scan the mixed-race beauty's entourage.
"Welcome, Seraphina Rain... Hello, Mr. Flores."
When the camera scanned Elbert, it said, "Sorry, Gemini cannot recognize you at the moment; no reservation found!"
Elbert smiled and thought to himself. 'It would be abnormal if you could find me!'
After examining it for a while, he quickly understood how the voice system worked.
It seems that someone within the company compiled it separately, making it a simple, intelligent voice system. Using the Gemini app database and combining it with voice reading, if released on the market, this design would indeed be eye-catching. However, compared to Robert, it falls significantly short!
Elbert's Gemini app account, 'Paul Three,' had all the information hidden under his deliberate manipulation to avoid unnecessary trouble. Therefore, based on the Gemini app data, Gemini naturally couldn't find any information about Elbert.
The moment Gemini finished speaking, everyone in the hall looked over. The old woman named Seraphina Rain frowned even more.
'So, he was trying to sneak into the company. I can't trust him!' thought she.
Elbert just shrugged. He didn't plan to explain anything. Instead, he looked at the two receptionists with a smile.
What Elbert wanted to see was how his Gemini app colleagues would handle this situation. But to Elbert's surprise, in less than half a minute, two Creator Company security guards walked out from the side. They stood with their hands behind their backs beside the group. They didn't make a move, seemingly waiting for orders.
'This efficiency and this coordination is impressive. Alvin, I really admire you!' A smile gradually appeared on Elbert's face.
One of the receptionists whispered to the other. "Miss Wren, this guest has no reservation information or identity information at all. Could he be one of those crazy fans?"
The receptionist, Lyra Wren, frowned slightly and looked at Elbert. "Don't panic; all guests are welcome. I'll handle this." Lyra slowly walked up to Elbert, smiling. "Sir, may I have your name?"
"Elbert," Elbert introduced himself.
Lyra nodded slightly, very politely. "Sir, this is an office space, and visitors need to make an appointment. May I ask what brings you here?"
Elbert nodded with a smile and pointed to the mixed-race beauty, saying, "I'm here for the same reason as her: to invest in the company!"
"Invest in the company?" Lyra respectfully nodded and took a tablet. "May I know the name of your company?"
Elbert tilted his head, "Witness."
Lyra operated the tablet for a few moments. Sure enough, she found a company named 'Witness,' but the company's profile was rather sparse, with no successful cases.
In Lyra's view, Creator Company was a highly sought-after star company in the industry. Since joining, she had received countless investment companies.
It seemed that Mr. Elbert was also here because of its reputation. But compared to other investment companies, 'Witness' was indeed quite obscure.
Lyra smiled gently. "Sir, I have verified your information. Although you don't have an appointment, since you came from afar and think highly of our company, we certainly welcome you." Then, Lyra bowed and gestured. "Mr. Perry, please follow us to the lounge for some tea and a short rest."
"Alright, thank you!" Elbert felt extremely comfortable at this moment.
'This reception process and this service etiquette were truly heartwarming!' he exclaimed inwardly.
