From Cannon Fodder to Sweeping Across Thousands of Stars

Chapter 270 We Sell Services

Lubion 5 geostationary orbit, foreign ship mooring area.

A private cruise ship and two frigates, with the Atlas logo printed on them, slowly sailed into the space reserved for them.

This cruise ship, kindly sponsored by the rich elf lady Ellenita, is currently used as Atlas's exclusive 'reception ship', used to receive important customers of some companies.

The Prince Regent's special envoy Perseus became the first Atlas customer to experience this cruise ship.

"How have you been resting these past few days, Mr. Perseus?"

In an elf-style tea room on the cruise ship, Shikodi asked Perseus opposite her with a decent smile.

"It's very good. This is my first time on a cruise ship made by elves. I have to say that it is indeed a rare experience. The comfort level of elves' ships is indeed much higher than that of our human ships."

Perseus seemed very interested in this topic, and he was full of praise for this elf cruise ship.

"I dare say that among the ships in the human world, maybe the private ships of the imperial royal family and nobles are also very luxurious, but in terms of comfort, they are still somewhat different from your elven ships. Maybe only our Majesty's ship can be compared.”

"Mr. Perseus has given you too much praise. I believe that the nobles of your Star Dragon Empire are also very accomplished in this area."

Seeing that the atmosphere was almost lively, Shikodi continued:

"The person you wish to meet this time has arrived via transport boat and is now waiting for you in the conference room. Mr. Perseus, do you want to go directly to the main part of your visit?"

"Of course, I wish for it.

——

Soon, Perseus was guided to a spacious conference room in the cruise ship. There were no extra decorations and no waiters waiting on either side.

There is only a long transparent table and the man sitting at the end of the long table.

After Shikodi bowed slightly and left, he closed the door of the conference room and turned on the 'black box mode'.

"Please take a seat, Mr. Perseus, you are welcome to come from afar."

Amber's voice passed directly into Perseus's mind, and the latter quickly reacted - this was the effect of psychic energy.

For Perseus, this is not good news. According to the information he knows, high-level psykers may have the ability to influence people's thinking.

This ability can give psykers unimaginable advantages in some important negotiations.

However, as the regent's special envoy, Perseus could be considered a person who had seen strong winds and waves, so he calmed down and pulled out his chair and sat down.

"It's not easy to meet you, Mr. Amber."

"I can't help it, we've been too busy recently~" Amber spread her hands,

"You see, it's already so busy that I, the chairman, have to run the business myself."

"Haha, everyone in Atlas is really good at joking." Perseus smiled, and then continued:

"Presumably Mr. Amber already knows my purpose of coming. With my identity, coming to this sensitive area at this sensitive time can also show our sincerity, right?"

"Of course, since the Regent has found out my identity and is willing to send envoys to such a place to negotiate with me, I naturally believe in your sincerity."

"Very well, then I will get straight to the point."

"You can rest assured that every word spoken in this room will not be known by a third person."

"As expected of you, you are indeed very cautious."

Perseus nodded and continued:

"As entrusted by His Excellency the Regent, I am here to meet with you this time to conduct business negotiations on the 'real-time transmission technology of inter-galactic information' and 'network information dissemination technology' in the hands of Atlas - to put it simply, Your Excellency the Prince Regent is willing to purchase these two technologies at an absolutely sincere price.”

Perseus did not beat around the bush, but explained his purpose very directly.

Amber did not speak directly, but after staring at Perseus for a while, she replied:

"I think you must have misunderstood something. We at Atlas are a service company and will not directly sell our technology. We will only provide corresponding services based on customer needs.

This is a very simple truth, we cannot sell our jobs.”

"But the price we are willing to offer is also very sincere. Mr. Amber, don't you really want to hear it?"

"I think you and the Prince Regent should both understand the significance of these two technologies. Do you think they can be measured in terms of 'value'?"

Amber smiled, with an expression on her face that seemed to say, 'Dude, do you think I'm stupid? ’

Perseus also had some embarrassment on his face. As the regent's client, he naturally knew the value of these two technologies, and also knew how outrageous it was to come directly to buy them.

Looking at the expression on the imperial noble's face, Amber continued to smile and said:

“How about we discuss purchasing our services?

As the first customer of this business, you can enjoy the strongest annual discount, and you will also receive additional services including but not limited to armed intervention, VIP protection, military unit training, and defense contracting~"

"I know that purchasing services can achieve the same effect, but some things involve our privacy after all, and it may not be convenient for you to operate them after purchasing services."

Perseus looked embarrassed, and he obviously knew that some things could not be said openly.

Amber showed an expression of "you don't have to worry about this at all" and said:

"You don't have to worry about this at all, and I hope you can tell His Excellency the Regent that our Atlas is a company with very high professional ethics and corporate reputation, and will never disclose any secrets of our customers.

No matter what you want to use our services for, as long as it does not harm the interests of our Atlas, we will not have any restrictions.

Even if there are some things that cannot be said in public, we will not restrict them."

When saying the last sentence, Amber looked at Perseus with a ulterior motive, and the latter also looked at him with a meaningful look.

After a moment, Amber added the last sentence:

"I believe you also know that our Atlas is a company registered in the Thousand Star Empire, and our corporate style is also "extremely pro-foreign". As long as the customers who cooperate with us are our eternal friends.

So we will not favor any party for any reason."

After listening to what Amber said, Perseus thought for a while and asked: "Even if your company may cooperate with two mutually hostile forces at the same time in the future, will it be the same?"

"That's natural. Our Atlas Group will always put its own reputation first and will never do anything to ruin its own brand.

If the situation you said really happens, we will only provide service support to both parties, and they are all the "breadwinners" of our Atlas, so we will never favor any party.

If it involves services related to armed intervention and defense contracting, we will only reach an agreement with the first customer to cooperate, and will not provide this type of service to both parties at the same time."

Amber said a lot of things skillfully, because these things have been imprinted in his mind.

After deciding to go the path of a ‘giant enterprise’, he had already pulled a group of professionals to plan in this regard.

How to maximize profits?

How to make money from mutually hostile customers at the same time?

Before becoming bigger and stronger, how to maintain one’s position without leaning towards any party, so that potential customers can trust Atlas and then reach cooperation?

And so on and so forth

For these problems, Atlas already has methods and plans for dealing with relevant situations.

The Dragon Field Enlightenment masters in the Financial Business Department couldn’t sit still after figuring out what Amber wanted to do.

“This is the utopia for us people”

So when these people assisted Amber in corporate strategic planning, they were also the most attentive group of people.

One by one, they took out the spirit of hard work they had when they were studying before, and under the leadership of several top bosses, they quickly came up with a set of strategic development plans suitable for Atlas.

Although this set of plans still needs to be continuously optimized and adjusted in the process of practical exploration, Atlas now has a set of ‘guiding’ behavioral codes anyway.

Perseus, who was sitting opposite Amber at the moment, was surprised that this company, which was established less than a year ago, had already developed to such a mature stage and had an extremely clear understanding of its own positioning.

As a person close to the regent, he was entrusted to negotiate, and naturally he also got a lot of information from Norton II.

For example, he was one of the few people who knew that Amber was still alive and had opened a company in the Thousand Star Empire.

"Mr. Amber, I understand what you said. But this is not a simple matter. I believe it is also an important project for you. So, please forgive me for not being able to give an immediate reply. I may need to organize this information and then report to His Excellency the Regent."

"Of course, no problem, Mr. Perseus, just report. If you need us to prepare any materials, just tell me."

Amber made a "please" gesture and added:

"By the way, since you are going to report to His Excellency the Regent who is far away in the Empire, do you need to experience our "inter-galactic communication service project"?

We have just expanded the communication range to your country recently, which should greatly improve the efficiency of your report."

"Oh? Free experience project?" Perseus smiled.

"Of course, no charge~"
