In the evening, the night is falling.

After sending Yu Xinxi home, Tang Yuan asked Yuan Meng to turn the car around and drive again in the direction of the Bund.

About fifteen minutes later, the blue and silver Mercedes-Benz Pullman S680 slowly docked in front of the main entrance of Tianlin Pavilion.

"Tang Dong!"

After Tang Yuan got out of the car, Xiong Kai greeted him as soon as possible.

"How?"

"Did it go well?"

Facing the salute of many security personnel, Tang Yuan bowed slightly in response, and at the same time, he asked Xiong Kai as he walked towards the Tianlin Pavilion.

"Chairman, please ......"

In contrast, Wan Xinming's reaction was a little slower, but as a top scientific and technological talent with a high IQ, Wan Xinming quickly realized that the young man in front of him was most likely the mysterious chairman of the Victor Foundation.

Sure enough, after listening to Tang Yuan's words, Oleg Kotov couldn't help but be a little overjoyed: "Thank you, chairman!" ”

Facing Oleg Kotov's thanks, Tang Yuan smiled and turned his gaze to Wan Xinming beside the other party: "Hello, I'm Tang Yuan, and you are Wan Xinming, the chief engineer of Altran Technology, right?" ”

Originally, the two were sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window drinking tea, and when Oleg Kotov saw Tang Yuan walking out of the elevator, he immediately stood up from the chair as if a conditioned reflex, and his face instantly became extremely respectful and humble.

"Where is Chief Engineer Wan's ancestral hometown?"

is such a capable minister, and has the opportunity to show grace to the other party, Tang Yuan will naturally not be stingy.

As Tang Yuan pressed the bell, Wu Tai and his son quickly brought the meals prepared in advance to the table one after another.

The two sides exchanged pleasantries for a moment, and then moved to the table to sit down.

Tang Yuan patted Xiong Kai on the shoulder and said with a smile.

Tang Yuan picked up the red wine glass in his hand and gestured to Wan Xinming with a smile.

"Chief Engineer Wan, I didn't expect us to be half a fellow countryman."

Christmas, for Westerners, is the equivalent of the Chinese New Year, and if there is a chance to be with family, who would want to be in a foreign country, away from family and friends.

"It's not hard, it's all what I'm supposed to do."

Tang Yuan said with a smile, invisibly bringing the relationship between the two closer again.

"It went well."

Facing the two of them, Tang Yuan smiled slightly, he first looked at Oleg Kotov and said: "Secretary General Oleg, you have worked hard for you during this time, and you are busy supervising the Tianmu Dao Palace project, and you are busy dealing with Altran Technology-related matters, have you not been back to Los Angeles to visit your family for a long time?" ”

"My ancestral home is from Zhejiang Province, do you think we are fellow villagers?"

Tang Yuan could feel Wan Xinming's nervousness, and he said with a smile: "Chief Engineer Wan, you have successfully developed the first generation of artificial intelligence technology this time, you can be called a hero to our Victor Foundation, so you don't have to have any nervousness, I called you over this time, just to learn more about the first generation of artificial intelligence technology you developed, and by the way, I will discuss with you the future development trend of Altran Technology." ”

The Hong Kong-style side stove emitted steaming steam, and Tang Yuan took care of himself as he soaked the Wagyu beef slices while casually asking Wan Xinming.

Danny Grant is very old, and he still has the strength to sit in the base camp, if he is allowed to run around like Oleg Kotov, he may not be able to bear it in less than two months, so Oleg Kotov is almost equal to Xiao Yayue's status for Tang Yuan, and he can be called Tang Yuan's right-hand man.

Now, Wan Xinming went to Zhonghai to meet Tang Yuan, Xiong Kai and the others naturally followed each other back and accompanied Wan Xinming throughout the process to protect Wan Xinming's personal safety.

"Hello, Director."

Compared with the Western-style long-table food culture, the Chinese-style round-table food culture is easier to shorten the distance between each other, so when Tang Yuan, Wan Xinming and Oleg Kotov sat at the same round table and ate together on a Hong Kong-style side stove, Tang Yuan could clearly feel that Wan Xinming became more relaxed and even talked more.

Oleg Kotov bowed slightly and responded: "Some time ago, my family came to visit me in Hangzhou, thank you for your concern. ”

"Good work."

Since Danny Grant contacted Tang Yuan by phone, Tang Yuan asked Xiong Kai to take the three elite teams of Jinwei Security to Singapore as soon as possible to give close protection to Wan Xinming, chief engineer of Altran Technology.

"I'm Wan Xinming, and it's an honor to meet you."

The art of controlling the subordinates is nothing more than the combination of grace and power and these four words.

Perhaps because Tang Yuan behaved very easy-going, Wan Xinming's original nervousness gradually eased down.

"Chairman, it's my honor to share your worries."

"Chairman, my grandfather and grandmother are from southern Fujian, and my grandfather and grandmother are from Zhejiang Province, so my ancestral hometown can be regarded as both southern Fujian and Zhejiang provinces."

Although Wan Xinming is a top talent in the field of artificial intelligence and has a high social status, but in front of Tang Yuan, who is sitting on hundreds of billions of dollars, he is no different from ordinary people, if he hadn't succeeded in developing the first generation of artificial intelligence, he might not have had the opportunity to meet Tang Yuan in his life, such a disparity in status, it is difficult for him not to feel a little nervous at the moment.

"When I was young, I often followed my grandparents and grandparents back to China to pay homage to my ancestors, but then my grandparents and grandparents passed away one after another, and I came back less and less."

Xiong Kai followed behind Tang Yuan and replied succinctly.

When Wan Xinming heard this, he couldn't help but be a little flattered, and he hurriedly said: "Chairman, I salute you for this glass of wine!" ”

"I heard that Chief Engineer Wan is Chinese?"

Tang Yuan smiled and bowed his head, he did not snub Oleg Kotov next to him, and raised his glass slightly.

Tonight, because Tang Yuan had an important meeting, the entire Tianlin Pavilion was closed, and elite bodyguards in black suits could be seen everywhere, and everyone was on high alert.

Tang Yuan and Xiong Kai chatted for a few words, and soon took the elevator to the top floor of Tianlin Pavilion, where he saw Oleg Kotov, the secretary general of the Viktor Foundation, and Wan Xinming, the chief engineer of Altran Technology.

Seeing this, Wan Xinming hurriedly picked up the wine glass with both hands, stood up and bent down and put the rim of the glass extremely low: "Chairman of the Board, where is your ancestral home ......?" ”

Xiong Kaihan responded with a smile.

Speaking of this, Tang Yuan raised his hand and glanced at the time, and then said again: "It's all your own people, don't stand here stupidly, you guys are tired of traveling, and you probably haven't eaten well on the plane, how about we talk while eating?" ”

"When this time is over, I will give you half a month's vacation this Christmas, and I will personally allow you to go back to Los Angeles to spend the holidays with your family, and I will tell him at that time on Supervisor Danny's side."

"Secretary General Oleg, let's come along."

Oleg Kotov gestured respectfully, and then took his glass and drank it full.

After the three of them drank together, Tang Yuan quickly opened up the situation by taking advantage of the topic of fellow villagers, and at the same time, under the stimulation of alcohol, Tang Yuan and Wan Xinming gradually became warm, which also made Wan Xinming completely relaxed......
