Chapter 549: Allies
"As much sincerity as you have, I can show as much sincerity as I can." Jiang Chen looked directly into Liu Xiangguo's eyes without being humble or arrogant, "And before that, I need to know what you want." ”
"Virtual reality technology."
Hearing this, Jiang Chen sighed and put his hand on the arm of the chair.
"If that's your sincerity, then our conversation can be over."
After saying that, Jiang Chen made a gesture and wanted to get up.
Liu Haotian, who was standing at the door, looked at Jiang Chen in disbelief, he never thought that the conversation would develop in this direction.
The atmosphere in the tea room instantly became tense.
"Wait." As Jiang Chen expected, Liu Xiangguo stopped him.
I saw that the old man's eyes flashed with essence, and the eagle-like gaze was unabashedly locked on his face.
"You dare to talk to me like that, you are the first and the youngest." Picking up the teacup and taking a sip, Liu Xiangguo said lightly.
"In 'here'." Jiang Chen added.
"Hahahaha...... That's right, you're right, it's here. As if hearing something funny, the old man laughed and slowly placed the teacup on the table.
The air in the room suddenly relaxed, and the atmosphere eased.
"Sincerity, isn't it? Are you not willing to compromise on virtual reality technology anyway? As if his face had changed, Yoo Sang-kook regained that kind expression on his face and asked with a smile.
"That's right."
"So what if I let you not do business 'here'?" Although the words were said casually, Liu Xiangguo bit the three words in the middle very hard.
"Then we'll pull out completely."
"A total withdrawal?" Liu Xiangguo was stunned. looked at Jiang Chen with some curiosity, "With this 1.4 billion market, you don't feel distressed at all?" ”
"Technology that was at least twenty years ahead of its time slipped out of its hands. You don't feel distressed at all? Jiang Chen smiled and returned the question.
"There's never a shortage of talented people here."
"If there are talented people who can develop immersive virtual reality technology."
"Nothing, don't do it."
"I didn't give it to you either. Including the present and the future, all the new gadgets that the future people will come up with technology. ”
Jiang Chen's words made Liu Xiangguo fall silent.
Even before this conversation, or even before the Phantom Helmet was announced as an immersive virtual reality technology, the executives were discussing the issue of the Future People Group. The answer from the Academy was pessimistic, that for at least thirty years, they would not be able to achieve the level of virtual reality technology to the level of a phantom helmet.
Unless. Major technological breakthroughs are taking place in both the fields of medicine and electronics.
If the Phantom Helmet is kept out of the door, and other countries accept the Phantom Helmet, it will not be unclear what it means.
Keep new technologies out. will only be left behind by this world.
But then Liu Xiangguo scoffed at his idea, just relying on a mere company? Do you dare to claim that your new technology is leading the next era?
But is it really impossible?
Looking at Jiang Chen with a smile on his face, Liu Xiangguo was a little doubtful of his thoughts for a while.
"It's an interesting opponent. Originally, the old man thought that he had too many moves to choose from in this move, but now he looks at it like this. It doesn't seem to be so. ”
"Haha. Don't dare to be. I'm not here to play chess with you, but to find allies worth working with. ”
"Allies...... You're not a small one. Liu Xiangguo glanced at Jiang Chen.
"Please don't underestimate the technical strength of the Future People Group," Jiang Chen shook his index finger and said with a smile, "There is only technology that you can't think of, and there is nothing we can't do." ”
After a pause, Jiang Chen smiled mysteriously and continued.
"What's more. You can't guess who the real ruler of the new kingdom is, do you? ”
It seemed to confirm Jiang Chen's guess. Yoo Sang-kook snorted with his nose.
"Boy, you're slippery?"
"You're getting too old."
Although he spoke modestly, Jiang Chen's face at this moment no longer showed any humility.
……
When Jiang Chen left the courtyard, it was already late at night. The two sides discussed the details of the cooperation for a long time, and finally reached an agreement that satisfied both parties.
Although it was only a verbal agreement.
Liu Haotian opened the car door for Jiang Chen, and then got into the car himself.
"Are you satisfied with today's harvest?"
"Very satisfied. It could even be said that it completely exceeded my expectations. ”
Liu Haotian glanced at Jiang Chen through the rearview mirror, but with this hurried glance, he couldn't tell whether what Jiang Chen said was sincere. Halfway through the conversation, his father motioned with his eyes to look away. Although some were concerned about what agreement the Liu family or the Hua Congress reached with the Future People Group, the old man obviously didn't mean to let him know.
"That Uncle Liu, is it your father?"
"yes, how do you see that?" Regarding Jiang Chen's sudden accosting of himself, Liu Haotian was puzzled.
"Do you still need to see this? Aren't you surnamed Liu? Jiang Chen rolled his eyes and returned to the idiot's question.
That's the same thing......
Liu Haotian said in his heart embarrassedly.
"Speaking of which, what is the status of your Liu family in China?" Jiang Chen asked nonchalantly.
Hearing Jiang Chen ask this question, the corners of Liu Haotian's mouth hooked up with a touch of pride.
"The head of the family."
When Jiang Chen returned to the hotel where he was staying, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.
After parking Hongqi L9 in the garage, Liu Haotian did not stay here for long, but only told Jiang Chen that he would arrive at the door of the hotel at eight o'clock tomorrow morning, and then drove his car to say goodbye.
Perhaps worried that Jiang Chen hadn't come back so late, Xia Shiyu stood at the door of the hotel and kept looking at her watch to confirm the time. Seeing Jiang Chen get out of the car, she immediately greeted him, looked at him and complained.
"Where did you go, why did you come back so late?"
Although the tone is still so impersonal. But the concern on her face made Jiang Chen's heart warm, and she couldn't help but say widely.
"Don't worry, it's just a delay in talking to some big guy about business. The specific situation will be said in the house later. ”
"Who. Who's worried about you anymore. Xia Shiyu blushed and looked away frankly, "All in all, it's not early, let's go back quickly." ”
It's really a textbook tsundere.
Looking at Xia Shiyu's departing back, Jiang Chen couldn't help but think.
After returning to the guest room, he threw his suit aside. Jiang Chen lay down on the bed in a large shape.
"Aisha."
The air beside him fluctuated slightly, and a petite figure in a suit appeared next to the bed out of thin air.
Suits and trousers are made of special materials. Because she had reacted to Jiang Chen that wearing a black carbon nano combat suit was too conspicuous, Vault 27 came up with a corresponding plan. That is, clothes made of special materials can be made of invisible at the same time as the optical invisibility device. to avoid the problem of combat uniforms being too conspicuous. In principle. The butt and tactical vest are the same as those that match the Invisibility Cloak.
The azure pupils looked at Jiang Chen quietly, and the girl waited for her master's orders.
"Are there any 'eyes' around?"
Jiang Chen was naturally referring to monitors or cameras.
"It's been checked." Aisha shook her head.
It's still as reassuring as ever.
Looking at that pretty face, Jiang Chen smiled and patted the bed on the side.
"Come, sit down next to me."
Aisha nodded obediently and sat down on the edge of the bed.
"What's on your mind?"
Aisha glanced at Jiang Chen in confusion, and looked at her as if asking: How do you know?
"It's all written on the face." Sitting up, Jiang Chen said with a smile as he reached out and rubbed her hair. "Can you tell me? If only I could help. ”
"It's not my business." The girl shook her head, slightly curling her mouth in some distraction. shook his calves on the side of the bed and whispered, "Jiang Chen...... What do you think of Sister Shiyu? ”
Seeing that Jiang Chen didn't answer for a long time, Aisha couldn't help but turn her head sideways and looked at Jiang Chen with some embarrassment.
"My question...... It's really weird. ”
"No, nothing strange." Jiang Chen, who came back to his senses, smiled and gently squeezed her hand, "It's just that I think it's a little too selfish to say what you think in your heart." ”
Aisha shook her head vigorously, looked into his eyes and said seriously, "No. ”
"Because it's Aisha, I don't think so, but others don't have to."
"The host...... Annoyed? ”
"Why did this name come up again...... Never mind. It's not so much annoying as a little overwhelming. Although I can change the laws of the new country to make polygamy legal, the traditional wisdom will not change. ”
It is precisely for this reason that he has always carefully maintained the interpersonal relationships on this side of the world. He wasn't sure if the relationship between him and Xia Shiyu could still be maintained after piercing that layer of window paper, and it was precisely because of this that he almost came to that step a few times, but he was stopped by his sudden brakes.
After all, this is the present world......
Looking at Jiang Chen's side face, Aisha confirmed the guess in her heart, and a shallow smile couldn't help but appear on the corner of her mouth.
Sure enough, you have to help him...... Please allow your most loyal maid to be a little willful again.
Just then, there was a hesitant knock at the door.
As soon as the knock on the door sounded, Jiang Chen didn't have time to react, and Aisha disappeared in an instant.
“…… Already asleep? Xia Shiyu's whisper came from outside the door, and she was hesitating to leave.
Glancing helplessly in the direction where Aisha had disappeared, Jiang Chen stood up and walked towards the door.
"Wait a minute, I'll open the door."
Pulling open the door, a wisp of shampoo wafted through the tip of Jiang Chen's forehead and nose with the wind. Judging by the droplets of water on her white neck, she must have just taken a bath.
Xia Shiyu looked behind Jiang Chen and asked pretending to be calm, "What about Aisha?" ”
"Why do you think Aisha is in my room?" Jiang Chen touched his nose.
Although he was not lying, he replied with a statement that could easily be misunderstood. He didn't know why he did this, so he subconsciously covered up the information that Aisha had been here.
Maybe it was Jiang Chen's illusion, but he always felt that after hearing this sentence, Xia Shiyu's mood improved significantly.
"It's so late, what's the matter?" Jiang Chen asked.
"Just now...... Don't you have something to say to me? ”
Have it?
Jiang Chen recalled carefully, and a sudden expression immediately appeared on his face.
It seems that there really is. When he first came back, he said that "when he went back to the house, he was talking". (To be continued.) )
