Kayaba Akihiko, who has almost completed the information immortality experiment, was played around by Hayama Yayoi. Perhaps they will seriously consider the feasibility of the information immortality experiment.
Yayoi Yuyama did not expect them to repent, so she could only choose to keep their handle in her hands to intimidate them into cooperating.
In the conference room, Yayoi Hayama was enjoying her coffee alone.
There were several screens hanging on the walls around her, and Yayoi Hayama was quietly waiting for the online meeting to begin.
There is an LED clock on the table, which was specially brought by Yayoi Hayama.
55, 56, 57...
The seconds kept ticking, and Yayoi Hayama also blinked slightly.
When the seconds jumped to "00", several screens lit up instantly.
Along with a boot animation, messages requesting access appeared on several screens simultaneously.
Yayoi Yuyama swiped the table lightly, and the wooden tabletop instantly turned into a touch screen. After pressing "Connect All", several virtual figures appeared on the surrounding screens.
After seeing the virtual image displayed on the screen, Yayoi Yuyama couldn't help but smile.
On the screen, they all look very young, and seem to be about the same age as Yayoi Hayama, but in fact, most of the people behind the scenes who support Kayaba Akihiko are in their seventies or eighties, and their images on the screen are just their imagination.
Of course, another purpose of using a virtual image is to hide your identity.
In this video conference, except for Yayoi Hayama, the identities of the other participants are kept confidential.
"I don't know what you guys are doing by contacting me through secret channels. I'd like to make it clear in advance that after being busy for several days in a row, I wanted to have a good rest this evening, but you ruined my plan. I'm not very easy to talk to, I guess."
Yayoi Yuyama's speech was very strong. Although he had already guessed the other party's intention in coming to him, he still needed to do some superficial work.
The screens were all equipped with cameras. Several people looked at each other, and the man on the screen opposite Yushan Yayoi said, "Yushan, don't get me wrong, we have no ill intentions."
Yayoi Yuyama blinked slightly. The other party's voice was also very young. There was no doubt that the other party shamelessly turned on the voice changer.
"Whether there is malicious intent should be based on my subjective judgment," said Yayoi Yuyama.
The man on the other side blinked slightly, but his expression did not change much. After all, he had worked in the government for many years and had long since developed an invulnerable skin.
If it were a young person, just the impolite tone of Yayoi Hayama would make the person become much gloomier.
From the tone of Yushan Yayoi's voice, it could be heard that the other party did not seem to want to cooperate with them, and was even somewhat resistant to talking, which made the person who spoke feel a little embarrassed.
"Actually, we invited you here this time because we want to discuss business with you."
The other person smiled and said.
As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person, otherwise it is easy to give people the impression that you are difficult to get along with.
But Yushan Yayoi didn't care about this. She took a sip of coffee and said, "The Yushan family no longer has any business in Japan. We don't need a business partner."
The expression of the person who spoke changed subtly in an instant. Even if he had good upbringing, he had been in a high position for a long time. When had he ever been ignored like this?
The other party simply ignored me before I even put forward any conditions, and even teased me in a slightly provocative tone, which naturally made me very unhappy.
However, there was no other way. Now he was asking for help, so he could only bury his resentment in his heart and said, "If the Yushan family's business wants to return to Japan, we can also provide help."
Yushan Kazuto stared at him and couldn't help but smile. The Yushan family withdrew all their assets from Japan not because they were squeezed out, but simply because they felt that the Japanese market did not have enough potential, so they transferred the assets to more suitable regions.
From the tone of the other party, it sounded as if the Yushan family had lost the competition and was squeezed out for a day, which was a bit funny.
"I'm sorry, the Japanese market is a bit chaotic, with all kinds of people, making it difficult to operate. Therefore, we don't have the intention to do so for the time being. Thank you for your concern." Yayoi Yuyama said, but she retorted calmly.
The person opposite him narrowed his eyes slightly, and although he still had a smile on his face, it didn't look very good.
"I think we should just get straight to the point." A cold voice sounded. Yuyama Yayoi looked carefully and saw that the other character also had a cold expression, which made Yuyama Yayoi blink slightly.
He is already at such an old age, but he still acts like a middle school student with a serious attitude. No wonder he is thinking about such stupid things as information immortality.
But after hearing this, the people on the other screens thought about it and finally nodded together.
It can be seen that the identity of this elderly person with chuunibyou seems to be unusual.
"Yayoi Yuyama, you solved the SAO incident these days, so you should have obtained all the data and source code of SAO. This is what we want. You can set any conditions you want."
The man who spoke first spoke again, still smiling.
Among these people, the other party seems to serve as a spokesperson.
"You can just set any conditions?" Yayoi Yuyama sneered.
"I want to be prime minister. Can you push me to the position?"
The expressions of several people suddenly became a little unhappy. They did not expect that Yuyama Yayoi would raise such a difficult question as soon as she opened her mouth.
It is no secret that the Japanese government and the Hayama family are at odds. The reason why Hayama Yayoi was made a cabinet minister was mainly to prepare for both situations.
Although Yayoi Hayama entered the Diet and became a Cabinet minister, and is likely to work for a long time on the tasks accomplished by the Cabinet, it is almost impossible for her to become Prime Minister.
The Japanese government needs someone who goes against mainstream public opinion, but Japan's political families do not want to touch this hot potato, and Yayoi Hayama just fills this position.
Chapter 1131: Kayaba Akihiko told me, do you believe it?
Unless there is a drastic change in Japanese public opinion and the original government is boycotted, Yayoi Hayama will have a chance of coming to power.
But now, the other party started talking about something with a probability so small that it was almost impossible, which made several people feel embarrassed.
"We can fully support you and make you the third minister in the cabinet. This is our limit," one person said.
From the other party's tone, it could be heard that the other party was very knowledgeable about politics. Yayoi Yuyama took a breath and thought that the other party should come from a political family.
"Why is he the third minister of the cabinet and not the second minister of the cabinet? It seems that the difference is not that big." Yayoi Hayama said with a smile.
Several people looked at each other and no one responded to Yayoi Yushan's words.
The second minister of the cabinet will temporarily take over the position of prime minister when the prime minister encounters an accident or resigns.
If Yayoi Hayama really becomes the second minister of the cabinet, the prime minister might have to be more careful. He might accidentally have a plane crash when he goes out to attend an event.
Just like the death of the Indian Chief of Defense Staff two years ago.
"Let's talk it over. Obviously, we can't meet these conditions." One of them took a deep breath and said.
"There's nothing to discuss. Do you want me to hand over all the data to you, and then you take it to some third world countries to find guinea pigs to complete your absurd and crazy experiments?"
It is very intriguing that Yayoi Hayama did not use the word "crazy" to describe Kayaba Akihiko's death game, but instead used the word "insane".
In the eyes of several people, Yayoi Hayama seemed to be teasing them in a roundabout way.
"Those people in third world countries should be grateful that they are participating in a great experiment that has never been done before, and that we will take good care of their children and families."
Said a man who never spoke, yet spoke so sharply.
Yayoi Yuyama blinked slightly. Judging from the other party's remarks, he seemed to be a representative of the hard-line faction.
"You are wantonly depriving people of human rights and freedoms, and you are not ashamed but proud of it. You are really real politicians!" Yayoi Hayama said with a smile.
It was just a casual mention before, but I didn't expect that the other party really had the idea to continue this experiment in a third world country, which made Yayoi Yuyama take a deep breath.
Human rights and freedom are usually the sharp weapons they use every time they speak. But now, Yayoi Hayama is using the same method against them, which is somewhat ironic.
"Don't you want to live a long life? When people reach middle age, they sometimes feel powerless, right? Don't you want to keep plenty of energy and a clear mind at all times to observe and control the world?" one person said.
But his persuasion didn't really feel real, and Yushan Yayoi was a little unconvinced: "When you are unable to do what you want? Really not. I know that you are from the previous generation, the same generation as my father."
"But when my father was still able to fly around the world, you could only sit in the yard and bask in the sun. So you fantasize about the unrealistic immortality of information and pretend to be young people in the information world."
After being hit in the sore spot by Yayoi Yuyama, the expressions of several people suddenly changed, but after years of self-cultivation, they still did not explode in the end.
"You can't stop us, Hayama Yayoi."
Without Sao's data and Kayaba Akihiko, they could find someone else to design a new plan.
Although I didn't get the source code, at least I had Kayaba Akihiko's example and some nervgear entities, so it would be much easier to develop it on my own than before.
In their view, what Yayoi Hayama did was just a way to delay time.
However, it is difficult for them to predict how many events it will take to complete the experiment. Some members’ bodies cannot support it anymore. If the experiment period is long, they may die before the experiment is successful.
The others didn't dare to say that they would be able to hold on until the experiment was successful. After all, there had been cases before. Among them, a member who was less than 60 years old died of a sudden illness less than a month after SAO went online.
This also intensified their sense of crisis, which is why they came here to seek a trading opportunity with Yayoi Yuyama.
"I advise you not to have such wishful thinking. Mr. Suzuhara probably won't be able to hold on for much longer."
Yayoi Yuyama looked at a screen and said with a smile: "What do you think?"
The virtual image on the screen suddenly became flustered. How did Yayoi Yuyama know her true identity?
Even among the others, only the leader, that cold and aloof man with a bit of a middle school mentality, knew his identity. If he said that the other party had reached some agreement with Yayoi Yuyama in private, he was unwilling to believe it.
"Why aren't you talking? Wasn't Mr. Ozoe very imposing before?" Yayoi Hayama looked at another screen.
If he recognized one person, it might be a blind cat catching a dead mouse, but if he recognized two people, it meant that the other party might have already known the identities of him and others.
I originally thought that the double insurance of video conferencing and a virtual identity, coupled with my deliberately disguised personality, should be very safe.
Even if they were political enemies that she was extremely familiar with, it would take a lot of time to identify them. There was no way that Yayoi Hayama could recognize many of them.
Unexpectedly, Yayoi Yuyama actually pointed out the true identities of the two people one after another.
"Mr. Tianchun, you are a quiet person, but you have to pretend to be a slightly paranoid person. I won't tell you how bad your acting is."
Yayoi Yuyama looked at the man who claimed that the experimental participants in the third world should feel grateful. Although he might be speaking from his heart, normally, the other party was a vicious vulture and had no such character at all.
"Why do you say that?" The cold voice sounded again. Listening to this voice gave me a very strong feeling of being a middle school student, but the other party's tone was much softer.
"Are you going to ask me why?" Yayoi Yuyama paused.
"I said Kayaba Akihiko told me, do you believe it?"
"Kayaba Akihiko?" One person was a little surprised.
According to the information they received, Kayaba Akihiko should be dead, and they have even asked someone to confirm the body.
"Kayaba, maybe you should come out and meet them."
Yayoi Hayama knocked on the table.
Light was projected from the four corners of the conference room and gathered on the table. A figure gradually condensed. It was Kayaba Akihiko.
His model was reworked by Kazuto Yuyama, directly adopting his real-world appearance.
Seeing Kayaba Akihiko's figure gather, the people on the screen couldn't help but widen their eyes.
Chapter 1132 Internal Breakthrough
"Kayaba, don't you want to say hello to your old friends?" said Yayoi Hayama.
"I just recovered and want to adapt." Kayaba Akihiko looked at his hands. Although they were just projections, at least they could be seen in the real world.
The people on the screen were all a little surprised to see Kayaba Akihiko's appearance. The other party appeared in this form. Was it because the experiment was completed, or was it a smoke bomb deliberately released by Yayoi Hayama?
"It seems that my old friends are not very happy to see me?" Kayaba Akihiko said, looking around.
"Mr. Tianchun, didn't you tell me that we would always be the most steadfast partners? Why didn't you say hello to me?"
After hearing this, Tianchun already understood the identity of Kayaba Akihiko. That guy Kayaba Akihiko actually carried out the experiment secretly in the end.
"I don't know what you are talking about, nor do I know who Mr. Tianchun you are talking about."
"Kayaba, what a pity, it seems that your old friend doesn't have a good relationship with you?" Yayoi Hayama said with a smile.
"Maybe they are afraid of virtual life." Kayaba Akihiko said.
"I used to fantasize about becoming a virtual life, but now I dare not recognize a virtual life when I see it. I remember there is an idiom in China called 'Ye Gong Hao Long', which seems to be talking about this situation." said Yayoi Yushan.
"It's a pity." Kayaba Akihiko spread his hands and spoke in unison with Hayama Yayoi.
It is natural that the other party would not admit his connection with Kayaba Akihiko, otherwise it would be equivalent to being caught in the act by Yayoi Hayama. Given Yayoi Hayama's character, it would be normal for him to send people directly to the door and take the person away. He has no habit of respecting the elderly and loving the young.
Although some people have previously expressed the idea of conducting experiments in Africa, it has never been put into action.
Moreover, since the other party refused to admit his identity, Yayoi Yuyama didn't have much to do with him.
"Has he...completed information immortality?"
Finally, someone spoke up, and it was Suzuhara.
He is now seriously ill and may only be able to survive for another two or three years. His desire for information immortality is the strongest.
"I don't know, but I have indeed merged with an artificial intelligence program. My way of thinking and memory have not changed at all. However, it doesn't seem like information immortality. Perhaps it is difficult to define my situation."
Kayaba Akihiko said slowly.
