321: Chapter 320 A New Era (Part 2)

Everything in the deep mountains seems always to be so isolated. Even if earth-shattering changes occur, if no one pays attention, it is as if nothing happened.

The only ones who noticed might be the building material manufacturers in nearby counties.

Taiwan Novel Network solves book shortages, twkan.com, super reliable.

Since half a month ago, a big shot who appeared out of nowhere has been waving cash around, frantically sweeping up building materials on the market.

Cement plants, sand and gravel yards, steel mills, and even lumber mills near Amu County have all been bought out. Orders are lined up for the next three months. For a time, it even caused the price of ordinary cement and sand to rise slightly.

Even so, it still couldn't satisfy the mysterious big shot's appetite. There are still endless trucks of building materials being transported from nearby Ruoergai County, following the small roads northward until they enter the unfathomable depths of the mountains.

According to estimates by those in the know, the cost of these items alone has already reached over ten million.

The many bosses in Amu County can only watch helplessly, as if money that originally belonged to them is flowing into someone else's pocket. That feeling is indescribably painful.

But there's no way; they can't handle it.

Amidst the grief, many well-informed people are guessing: where on earth did this rich person come from? With these things, it would be enough to build a three-story, ten-acre villa out of thin air in the mountains, right?

Building a villa in the mountains, tsk tsk, the rich are truly willful. Who knows what kind of shady dealings are going on behind this.

The common people shake their heads and sigh, corruption, corruption.

And then there was no more.

No one had any objections.

The businessmen had no objections because they were making a fortune.

The local government had no objections because the taxes collected in just this half-month were equal to their busy work over the past three or four months. If it weren't for the fact that they couldn't see this mysterious big shot, the Amu County Magistrate would have wanted to visit in person; they were almost ready to worship him like a God of Wealth.

Naturally, the common people had no objections either. Major factories are frantically recruiting, and even local truck drivers can find work without having to run long distances. Making money is the hard truth.

Meanwhile, the mysterious big shot, the super-rich Boss Wang Shuo, who is being thought of by the Amu County Magistrate and the bosses of the major building material plants, is currently stuffing buns into his mouth without any image, while his eyes are fixed on the screen without leaving an inch.

Beside him, Chen Xin frowned slightly: "Slow down, no one is going to snatch it from you."

If Chen Zhongxuan and Chen Cheng were here and saw Chen Xin like this, their eyeballs would probably fall out.

Since when did the eternal ice beauty, Miss Chen Xin, start saying "Slow down" in such a soft, slightly reproachful tone?

Isn't this a sign that the sun is rising from the west?

Unfortunately, they couldn't see it.

The only one who could see all this was Wang Shuo.

But Wang Shuo's mind was clearly not on Chen Xin at this moment. After interacting more, he seemed to have developed an immunity to Chen Xin. Although she was still stunning, he would definitely not be swayed by her beauty.

"Mmph."

After taking a sip of milk and finally swallowing the meat bun in his mouth, Wang Shuo said: "I can't slow down. The project is about to start, and it won't do if the location hasn't even been chosen yet."

On the screen in front of him, a large map was displayed. In the search bar at the top of the map, a few words were marked:

"Hanzhong City Geographic Map."

Chen Xin looked at the serious Wang Shuo without speaking, only a faint gleam flickering in her eyes, exceptionally calm.

After looking for a long time, Wang Shuo sighed helplessly and sat back in his seat.

Sure enough, for things like site selection, you still have to go to the scene to see it specifically. You can't tell at all on the map.

As for the matter of him being map-illiterate, Wang Shuo would resolutely not admit it.

Just last night, through more than two hours of negotiation with General Manager Yu Tongguang, Liu Yemei drafted the simplest cooperation agreement she had ever seen. Huaneng Group and Frontier Technology formally reached a cooperation agreement on the Super Chip project.

After the cooperation agreement was signed, General Manager Yu Tongguang also gave Wang Shuo a big surprise. He not only accepted all the items proposed by Wang Shuo but also took the initiative to increase the first batch of payment funds to 30 billion, paying it all at once without delay or arrears, and promised to raise another 10 billion funds to inject into the project later.

Such a large amount of financial support shows Huaneng Group's confidence in the Super Chip.

Of course, Huaneng Group also put forward requirements for the management of funds. They would jointly set up a supervision account, and all funds would be injected into the supervision account, while Wang Shuo would be fully responsible for the specific use.

Because of this, Wang Shuo lost another night of sleep.

When he came back to his senses from the profound blueprints, Chen Xin had already brought him breakfast.

Seeing that Wang Shuo had eaten enough, Chen Xin said slightly: "I heard you want to bring your parents to Hanzhong City?"

"Yeah."

Wang Shuo nodded gently: "I do have that idea, but there are too many things these past two days, and I can't get away for the time being."

The idea of picking up his parents had long been there.

But because his own situation was not very safe, he had not taken any action.

Now it's better. Instructor Duan Chengwu's Security Company has been officially established, and the first batch of security personnel has been identified. According to him, the skills are excellent and absolutely reliable.

This is very good.

No matter how he did it or where he found the people, as long as he said they were usable and good, Wang Shuo believed it unconditionally.

No other reason, simply because Instructor Duan Chengwu is not someone who brags.

The most important reason is... he has money now, 30 billion! Even if he only took a negligible one percent from it, that would be 300 million. With this 300 million that fell from the sky, he could arm this group of people to the teeth.

So, it is time to bring his parents to his side.

Chen Xin paused and said: "I'll go."

"You go?" Wang Shuo was slightly stunned: "Is that appropriate?"

Chen Xin's eyes were clear: "You are all busy, and I am the only one with time. No one is more suitable than me."

Wang Shuo thought about it, and it really seemed so.

There are not many people around him who are not busy. Even Xu Kexin, who is best at slacking off, is now so busy that her feet are off the ground and her keyboard is smoking.

Han Xiaoxin is a bit idle, but this guy is now the main force in bottom-fishing US stocks, staying up later than him, and has panda eyes every day, which makes one's heart ache.

Liu Yemei goes without saying. Her feet have hardly touched the ground during this period. She is either on the plane or on the way to the airport. She worries about all the big and small things in the company and also works part-time as a cashier. She is a completely five-sided warrior.

There are still too few people.

After thinking silently in his heart, Wang Shuo raised his head and smiled: "It's not impossible for you to go, but in what capacity? Girlfriend?"

It was originally a joke, but to Wang Shuo's surprise, Chen Xin nodded very naturally: "If this can make your parents feel at ease, it is possible."

"Uh..."

Wang Shuo felt a little awkward.

There is nothing to fear except sincerity; sincerity is the eternal killer move.

Laughing it off, Wang Shuo said awkwardly: "Haha, how could that be? You are Miss Chen Xin of the Chen Group. Who would dare to let you be their girlfriend..."

Seeing Chen Xin frown slightly, Wang Shuo quickly changed the subject: "But don't you need to go back to school? If I remember correctly, you've been out for a long time this time, right?"

"No need."

Chen Xin said lightly: "I already have the qualification for recommendation for postgraduate studies, so it doesn't matter if I don't go to school."

Well, there goes the excuse.

"If that's the case..." Wang Shuo touched his nose and said: "Then I will trouble you to make a trip to Gudu."

Chen Xin breathed a sigh of relief and nodded gently: "Okay."

Pausing slightly, she added: "I'll go down and pack up. I'll leave tomorrow."

Without waiting for Wang Shuo to speak again, she turned and walked out of the office.

Looking at her slightly hurried back, Wang Shuo smiled slightly. This girl...

Shaking his head amusedly, he immediately raised his head and said: "Zero."

Wang Shuo's voice was steady.

"Help me contact Dr. Song. I want to see them this afternoon."

Some things are time to advance.

...

At this time, in a hotel not far from the Software Park, Room 502.

A woman with glasses and shoulder-length hair, estimated to be around thirty, was sitting on the sofa, holding a laptop and carefully looking at the information on the screen.

Beside her, a slightly younger girl was holding a book, her eyes darting around. After a few minutes, she threw the book aside, leaned over to the woman, and looked curiously: "Sister Song, what are you looking at?"

The woman did not answer. The girl gently read out the content on the screen: "Today, a research institution in the United States announced that it has successfully manufactured the world's first prosthetic limb controlled by a brain interface. Patients do not need to use limb movements, they only need to concentrate to achieve the movement of the prosthetic limb..."

Curling her lips, the girl said: "Lying again."

The woman who had been silent said gently: "Maybe it's true?"

The girl said disdainfully: "If it were true, with the nature of those people, they would have publicized it all over the world. How could they just publish a short article? This is just to cheat investors."

As she spoke, she added angrily: "Sister Song, you know it's fake, yet you still look at it so seriously."

The woman shook her head slightly: "Technology is progressing very fast now. Brain interfaces are not hard to understand either. I wouldn't be surprised if a brain-interface prosthetic limb was really manufactured."

"It would be strange if it weren't surprising."

The girl rolled her eyes. If she didn't know the temperament of the sister in front of her very well, she might have really believed this ghost story.

Who was it that swore that there was no such thing as a real brain-interface computer in the world, who was full of confidence to build the world's first full-function prosthetic limb, and who was dismissed from the research lab time and time again but still enjoyed it?

However, seeing the current state of her leader and sister, she felt a little unbearable.

"Sister Song."

She hesitated and said: "Do you think this Boss Wang has forgotten about us?"

The woman raised her head and said: "No."

Then she continued to look down at the screen.

"But we have been here for so many days, living in the hotel every day, and no one pays attention to us at all."

The girl propped her chin and said muffledly: "Do you think Boss Lin lied to us? There is no new boss, no new company, and no new project team for us to continue researching the topic. These are just means for Boss Lin to get rid of us because he doesn't want to spend money on us?"

The woman surnamed Song paused slightly and said silently: "No, don't think nonsense, and don't make up things about the boss behind his back."

"Oh."

The girl replied with some grievance.

The room fell silent for a while.

The woman surnamed Song felt a little annoyed, gently touched the mouse, closed the original interface, and opened a new news page.

The news was prominently marked with a few black fonts.

"Huaneng Group holds a press conference, responding to US sanctions for the first time: Not accepting!"

In the video, General Manager Yu Tongguang was dressed neatly, smiling, and calm.

Reporter: "General Manager Yu, did the US communicate with Huaneng Group about this matter before imposing sanctions?"

General Manager Yu Tongguang smiled and said: "No."

Reporter: "General Manager Yu, will Huaneng Group change its current R&D and sales plans after the US sanctions Huaneng Group?"

General Manager Yu Tongguang still smiled: "No."

Reporter: "General Manager Yu, what does Huaneng Group think of the US sanctions?"

General Manager Yu Tongguang said: "Clowns jumping on the beam, a dog jumping over the wall in desperation."

Reporter: "General Manager Yu, will the US Government's sanctions work? How will Huaneng Group respond to the US Government's sanctions?"

"In the thirty-five years since the establishment of Huaneng Group, we have experienced all kinds of storms, but we have never bowed our heads to difficulties. We didn't in the past, and we won't in the future! Self-reliance is always Huaneng Technology's attitude, and it is always the attitude of Made in China! If anyone delusional tries to use sanctions to disrupt fair market competition and trample on the modern business system to make Huaneng Technology surrender, then I can only say to the United States and the people behind the United States: You are wrong!"

"A new era has arrived. Huaneng Group will let everyone who is watching the joke know what technology is! What is R&D! What is never giving in!"

General Manager Yu Tongguang scanned the audience, his eyes shining, revealing a row of white teeth.

"We... will wait and see!"
