Steel Steam and Flame

"Yes, it's something like a color table, or it's a color table in art, and it's also a company logo." The middle-aged driver said, "It's one of the seven giant companies in the Empire. Tricolor Group, you have not seen it before, but I think you should have heard its name. It may not be relevant to our lives. It is not as good as the arms giant Weber, which takes arms manufacturing as its main industry, but at the same time. All aspects of the automobile industry are well known by ordinary people in the empire. And the Golden Bank is not to mention, it is a huge company that is closely related to us. Even in reality, most of the people cannot handle that simple bank. Cards, but depositing and withdrawing money through account passbooks is something everyone will do. Speaking of golden banks, I think almost everyone will deal with it more or less."

"Golden Bank, I think so, but Weber is also very famous. I have seen their industry in many places." Cassia said, "It is the striking bullet logo, which has to be noticed. , The kind that is on the tires of this off-road vehicle."

　　 The uncle driver nodded fiercely in agreement, and the speed of the car also slowed down a lot at this time. As far as I can see, the road conditions have become worse. The uncle's driving skills are very good, but as soon as Cassia is not in a hurry, but now he is chatting, he will not fight for this little time.

"Among the seven giant companies, the remaining five companies may be much lower-key than them. It may also be caused by the nature of the company itself, or the production they are engaged in is related to the specialization of the products sold. The other five Although every giant company can be named by everyone, there are not many people who really understand and can reach. Then these people are integrated into the huge population base of the empire, which is basically a negligible proportion. Just like Like you surgeons, just talking about a number feels very large, but when divided by a basis, the ratio is also pitiful. People who know the Tricolor Group and have been in contact with it can apply the same concept."

　　 "I think most of the people who will come into contact with the Tricolor Group will be surgeons, too." Cassia asked, his eyes still searching for those huge tire marks, not knowing what was thinking at the moment.

"It should be the same as what you said. I am not very familiar with the Tricolor Group. I just heard an elder who took me with him before." The driver is not very sure, and the time for thinking in the words has also begun to grow. "The Tricolor Group is in the energy business. When the empire was just established, it started off by digging coal mines everywhere with its first boss. You know that after studying history, electricity was later developed by the scientists of Avalon. It was proposed and officially applied. At that time, Tricolor had already become a huge company relying on an almost monopolistic coal mine business. Later, it took the big ship of technology thrown by Avalon in time, and the transformation was successful. Electricity and coal mines, as well as the increasingly mature steam furnace technology, have become what they are now with the efforts of dozens of generations, just like other companies."

　　 "Which is the Huiguan that represents electricity?"

"Huiguan is now only one of their main industries. There are many energy-related things. With their steam furnace technology, I think they can occupy a place in the empire. As long as the group of lunatics in Avalon are silent, the three primary colors The group’s technology there is no one can match it. After all, although electricity has a good driving force, it is not very practical and too restrictive. Finally, some heavy machines, like the one just now Giant trucks still have to rely on these hot steam, there is nothing that can be replaced.” The driver uncle continued, while thinking about the big truck in his head, “And the Tricolor Group is not like the Weber Company. It is highly independent like the Golden Bank. It has survived to this day and it is also the result of interdependence and mutual assistance with other companies. Otherwise, other powers in the empire would not let go of such an important thing as energy. But when they wake up When it came over, the Tricolor Group had become an existence that could not be shaken. Including now, other forces also have their own energy projects running, developing, and starting. After all, all kinds of machines are inseparable from energy if they want to run. Without being constrained by others, every large force is constantly developing various things. At the level of science and technology, there is no such thing as “too much”.

. "

　　 "The relationship between the Big Seven companies seems not as simple as I thought." Some sigh.

"This is a matter of course. In the huge interests, almost every force will participate. And giant companies like the Three Primary Colors Group are also **** with another giant company like sisters. Want to be in the empire. To shake its position, it is necessary to be prepared to face the two giant companies at the same time. And there must be a protection agreement between the seven giant companies. They are independent competitors, but the counterpoint is the same. Otherwise, like the twenty-three major families, the Saint Royal Hall, and the King’s faction, they will not leave this piece of fat to eat.” The driver uncle shook his head and said, the speed of the car has slowed down again and again, and the road is full of sticky puddles. The thick mud makes it difficult for off-road vehicles to drive on it. "But they have fought for hundreds of years, and there is still no result. The war always comes at a critical moment ~ www.ltnovel.com~ so that they are consumed internally and point the contradiction to the outside."

　　 "This can be regarded as a good thing among the bad things, no one is good for the empire to be shattered." Cassia was somewhat comforting the driver uncle.

"As you said, I hope this is a good thing." The uncle smiled reluctantly, "I also climbed up from a civilian, I have experienced everything I should have experienced, and I should know a lot. I am afraid of the future. The empire is really shattered, and our lives are better. The closedness in the empire is too strong. At best, this closedness is not necessarily a bad thing, but over time it will make people feel inevitable depression. You are still young, and you may not feel at all about it. I have lived for so long, and sometimes I can feel the transparent film of Dingxi, which is suffocating."

　　 "Birds in huge cages can't see the iron pillars erected in the cage, but they know their existence." Cassia gave a suitable metaphor.

　　 "Excellent way to say, that's it." The uncle driver smiled and nodded.

　　 The off-road vehicle continued to drive forward, and the sky soon dimmed. The distant mountains turned into black paper-like textures, and the pieces were glued to the end of the horizon, exuding an uneasy smell. The nearby hillside alternated slowly and steeply, and the shadows of the grass resembled the grave grass growing in a waste cemetery, chaotic and oscillating like a floating soul. Although both Cassia and the driver do not believe in the existence of gods, in the entire huge mountain range of black, blue and yellow, only one of them is driving in it, which is indeed a matter of heart.
