Chapter 297 The Three Giants Are Going Abroad
A moment later, Yao Xi saw a familiar figure she hadn't seen in a long time at the door of Old Wu's house.
"Mr. Wu, it's been a long time."
"Yao Xi?"
Old Wu kept scrutinizing the other person.
It felt like Yao Xi had really changed a lot since I last saw her.
The once vibrant and talented young man has now become a weary middle-aged man.
"Mr. Wu, you look to be in good health."
"I'm fine, but you must have had a tough time in the US."
"yes……"
"It's alright, it's good that you're back. No matter how bright the moon is abroad, it can't compare to life at home. Anyway, come in quickly!"
As he spoke, Old Wu pulled Yao Xi into his home.
When Yao Xi was studying at Tsinghua and Peking Universities, she often visited Mr. Wu's house, so she was very familiar with the place.
Compared to back then, Wu's old home has hardly changed.
After the two sat down, Old Wu made Yao Xi a cup of tea, and the two chatted about everyday things while drinking the tea.
"How are things? Not doing well in the US? I remember you were already a full professor at Harvard?"
"It was fine a few years ago, but later, because of my status, many research projects refused to let me join, and I haven't produced any results for a long time."
Yao Xi sighed.
That's not a lie.
When he first arrived in the United States, the Americans offered him all sorts of generous terms in an effort to win him over.
Not only did they solve his green card and citizenship problems, but they also provided him with almost unlimited research funding.
However, as China continues to grow stronger, the attitude of Americans towards naturalized Chinese scientists like him has visibly declined.
Although they have become American citizens, the United States is wary of them in various ways and prohibits them from participating in various government-led scientific research projects.
The school is receiving less and less funding because it's all going to Black professors.
"The Americans have misled you!"
Upon hearing this, Old Wu sighed.
"Otherwise, with your abilities, winning a Nobel Prize wouldn't be impossible!"
"Professor Wu, you think too highly of me. If we're talking about the Nobel Prize, that genius boy from Longke University might be a better candidate. He won the Fields Medal at a young age and recently invented the Star Rock material."
Although Yao Xi is really somewhat dissatisfied with her current life.
But he didn't actually intend to go back to China.
His real purpose in returning was to complete NASA's mission.
Because in Yao Xi's heart, she still harbored illusions about the United States, believing that the injustices she suffered in the past were actually due to the blood of the Chinese people flowing in her veins.
As long as he proves himself through this mission, the United States will continue to treat him as an honored guest, just as it has in the past.
So as they chatted, Yao Xi deliberately steered the conversation toward Lin Chen.
As expected, Old Wu was not wary of this at all and started chatting along with his topic.
"You mean Lin Chen? That's right, that kid is indeed the most talented young man I've seen since you!"
"It's a pity, if it weren't for certain reasons, he should have become my student!"
"Oh? Mr. Wu, what's going on?"
Yao Xi followed up on what Old Wu had said and asked.
Old Wu then excitedly began talking about how he first discovered Lin Chen's talent, and continued talking about all the things Lin Chen did after he entered Longke University.
Yao Xi was in the United States and only knew about Lin Chen's life after he entered university. She never expected that this genius was actually a vocational school student in the past.
He couldn't help but exclaim, half-jokingly, "This is truly a rare genius. I wish I could have a chat with him."
"You want to see him? That's easy. That kid is at Longke University. You can come with me to see him another day."
"Okay, then I'll trouble you, teacher."
……
The next day, early in the morning, Lin Chen took Chen Xiaoxiao back to Longke University.
He originally wanted Chen Xiaoxiao to move into his new home directly.
Unfortunately, the girl was shy and didn't plan to "live together" right now, feeling that they needed more time and emotional connection to develop.
Perhaps if it were any other girl, having a boyfriend like Lin Chen, she would definitely try every means to tie herself to him.
But Chen Xiaoxiao is clearly not like that.
Lin Chen wasn't in a hurry, since he had already set up a fingerprint password for Chen Xiaoxiao's home, so she could come anytime she wanted.
Driving the new car he bought along with the villa, Lin Chen took Chen Xiaoxiao back to school, and then went to her dormitory.
Although he has moved to a new house, there are some things he hasn't had time to bring over yet.
When Lin Chen arrived at room 402, he was surprised to see three familiar figures.
"Why are the three of you back?"
"Boss!"
"Father!"
Lu Han and the others looked at Lin Chen who came in with surprise.
The three of them gave him a warm hug one after another.
"So, why are you back? Did your company go bankrupt?"
Lin Chen looked at the three people strangely.
When he last contacted the three men, they said they were prepared to fight to the death and launch their latest product, a robot dog, at a drone exhibition in Nanjing.
Then suddenly all three of them went silent.
"Going out? Even if Longke goes out of business, we won't go out of business!"
Lu Han coughed forcefully, then showed Lin Chen a red booklet.
"Passport? Are you going abroad?"
Lu Han nodded: "Yes, just in the last couple of days, we received a super big order, and we have to go to Pakistan."
On the one hand, we are helping others to bring their goods there, and on the other hand, we need to make some customized adjustments on-site according to the customer's needs.
You know this matter; only my second and third brothers can handle it personally.
Pakistan?
Lin Chen was completely confused.
What are you three, who run a drone company, doing in Pakistan?
"Tell me, what's going on? Even if there really is an order, do you three really need to go abroad in person? Be careful you don't run into scammers who will sell you to a telecom fraud ring!"
Lu Han quickly waved his hand: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
"Boss, you'll never believe just how huge this order is!"
Lin Chen sat down with a curious expression and looked at the three of them, asking, "An order? How big is it?"
"If this deal goes through, we can at least earn a small fortune!"
"One hundred million? 666!!!"
Lin Chen was startled, but quickly recovered.
"What kind of big deal could earn you a hundred million?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Han and the other two suddenly tensed up.
Chen Hao closed the balcony door, and Shi Jun opened the dormitory door, peeked out a few times, and then closed the door again.
After they finished their series of actions, Lu Han sat down next to Lin Chen and whispered, "Weapons!"
"Clam?!"
How did we, a company that sells drones, become an arms dealer?
"Here's the thing... Boss, we've landed a job. The client is the first private security company in China to operate overseas! They're the kind that can use weapons. Just think of them as our country's Blackwater Group!"
"However, compared to Blackwater, they still have many restrictions, such as not being able to use heavy weapons. So they plan to buy some drone robot dogs to fill the gap in heavy firepower."
"Is this okay?"
"Of course!"
Lu Han raised his voice, "Look at the situation on the Russian and American sides now, it's almost turned into a drone war. Tanks and planes are no longer effective; we have to rely on drones!"
"I've figured it out now. If Longchen Intelligent Aviation wants to overtake the competition and break out of the red ocean of drones, we have to rely on the huge arms market!"
Lin Chen looked at Lu Han's excited expression and felt that he could see flames in his eyes.
"Boss, you won't object to us using your technology on this, will you?"
Shi Jun said with an embarrassed look on his face.
After all, the main reason they were willing to buy their drones was because they were interested in Lin Chen's insect hive consciousness control system.
Shi Jun was worried that Lin Chen would resist this.
After all, his inventions might be used in weapons of mass destruction.
However, Shi Jun was overthinking it; Lin Chen didn't care about such things at all.
"It's alright, why should I care? As long as it's not used against our own people, it's fine."
"Don't worry, we've already verified Feilong Security's qualifications! They are indeed authorized by the state. If they dare to use our drones against their own people, the government will be the first to step in, even before we do!"
