Chapter 108 Reappearance 000001
Alvin immediately recognized the visitor—a negotiator sent by Meta Platforms to acquire the Gemini app.
However, since it was Emily's father, it wouldn't be appropriate to reject him outright in public.
Alvin smiled from a distance and said, "Benjamin, we're having a party right now. We will discuss the business later!"
"Alright, Mr. Weaver!" For some reason, Benjamin seemed very confident today.
He smiled slightly. "But you'd better hurry; I fear you might get too flustered later!"
Alvin just gave a faint smile, not planning to respond.
The crowd was also murmuring in surprise.
They knew Emily's father was a Meta Platforms executive!
'Alvin's company must be impressive to have business dealings with Meta Platforms!' they thought.
Alvin continued, "Ladies and gentlemen, when it comes to achievements and net worth, none of us can compare to one person, and that is my good brother, Elbert!"
"Mr. Weaver is truly humble!" someone remarked.
"Elbert is just a waiter! He doesn't have any net worth to speak of," Cynthia whispered.
But coincidentally, it was a moment of silence after Cynthia spoke, and her words were exceptionally clear to everyone!
'A waiter?'
The crowd looked at Cynthia in shock, then at Elbert. Although Elbert had some mental issues, he was at least a graduate of a prestigious university. They thought he would at least land a decent job!
"Jesus, he's just a waiter!"
Someone couldn't help but laugh.
Alvin suddenly frowned. Benjamin glared at his wife and whispered. "Shut up! You're always causing trouble. It doesn't matter what Elbert does; if you offend Alvin, I can't continue negotiating!"
Suddenly, the roar of an engine came from afar. A white private helicopter slowly approached!
The crowd was stunned. There was even a helicopter. Gradually, they saw the large letters on the helicopter: Meta Platforms!
'Oh my god! A Meta Platforms helicopter! Who could this important person be?' Everyone felt confused.
Benjamin looked very pleased.
'Yesterday, I reported back to the group and informed Mr. Greene about today's event. Emily's class reunion is an opportunity to meet Alvin! To ensure everything went smoothly, I specifically invited Mr. Greene, the group's vice president, to come personally! We must acquire the Gemini app in one fell swoop!'
After thinking this, his smile widened.
Benjamin squinted at the helicopter. He felt very proud!
'Mr. Greene's appearance is indeed impressive! They even used a helicopter! Landing on the rooftop helipad and then walking out grandly! Just the spectacle alone would be enough to overwhelm the small Creator! Let's see how you could refuse my acquisition now!' he pondered.
Meanwhile, Cassius, sitting in the helicopter, also looked very proud.
Everyone on the rooftop was staring wide-eyed at the Meta Platform helicopter, full of shock!
In their view, luxury cars were common, and many of them even owned one! But a helicopter was a rare sight! It was not just about money! It represented status, prestige, and company scale!
"Mr. Greene, we are preparing to land!" the pilot in the front row shouted, and Cassius nodded slightly!
Suddenly, a signal came through the helicopter's radio: "Calling 308, please respond!"
The pilot was stunned and quickly replied, "308 received, go ahead!"
"308, you are occupying my legal airspace. Please move aside quickly and do not delay my landing!"
The pilot and Cassius were both dumbfounded!
Another roar of an engine was heard! Another luxurious private helicopter, entirely black, flew in from a distance!
Two helicopters, one black and one white, approached the Skyrise Tower helipad one after the other!
Another one appeared!
Private helicopters were rarely seen in the city, and now there were two at once!
"308, move aside quickly; you are occupying my legal airspace!" The voice came through the radio again!
The pilot was so scared he trembled! Their helicopter, indeed, hadn't applied for the airspace today!
Cassius was completely bewildered!
"Mr. Greene, we have to move aside!" the pilot shouted.
The confused Cassius could only nod blankly! As the Meta Platforms helicopter moved aside, the black private helicopter slowly approached.
The crowd finally saw the words on the helicopter: Creator—000001!
Everyone gasped!
"The Creator's private helicopter! How incredible!"
"Alvin is truly impressive!"
The crowd looked at Alvin again, full of disbelief!
Even the CEO of Creator, Alvin, looked puzzled, staring at Elbert in confusion.
"What's the meaning of this?" Alvin asked.
Elbert shrugged. "You know, I don't have a car."
"And you bought a helicopter?" Alvin's eyes widened.
Elbert replied helplessly, "No, the car I wanted wasn't for sale unless I upgraded some membership, so I just bought this helicopter to make up for it!"
Alvin was dumbfounded and slowly gave Elbert a thumbs-up!
Elbert shrugged. "Strictly speaking, this helicopter is a bonus. Alvin, you can keep it for fun."
Alvin was at a loss for words! He said blankly, "You are too generous. Thank you!"
The helicopter roared, stirring up a gust of wind. The black helicopter landed steadily on the Creator helipad! Then, a tall young man walked off the helicopter, covered in dust. He looked around for a moment and headed towards Elbert!
It was Gregory, the sales manager from Four-Dimensional! He walked through the crowd and came to Elbert.
"Mr. Perry, your Bell-210 luxury private helicopter has been delivered! As per your instructions, the helicopter is painted black with the Creator logo! The number has also been registered as you requested, LD-000001! Additionally, the limited-edition vintage car SS454 you ordered has been delivered downstairs via a container truck! Please check and accept it!"
After speaking, Gregory bowed slightly and handed the document bag to Elbert!
The entire place fell silent. Everyone's heads swung back and forth, like pendulums, between the private helicopter and Elbert!
"LD-000001? Did that correlate with the Gemini ID-000001?"
"It must be like that! He is the number 000001!"
"Oh my god, how rich is he?!"
"He could actually afford a private helicopter!'
There was a burst of discussion among the crowd.
Meanwhile, Caleb spat out the half-sip of champagne he had just taken. Emily and Cynthia's LV bags fell to the ground!
