Chapter 975 Terrifying Connections
Life was always full of ups and downs.
Who would have guessed that the shy kid talking to him at the Purple Mountain Hotel became a world-renowned university student?
Who would have guessed that a company making mixed carbon cement material would transform into an industry giant in the alternative energy field?
Liu Wanshan would have never imagined it. He thought that it would be amazing to reach the billion yuan mark, he never would have imagined earning billions in just a few years’ time; he might even end up on Forbes soon...
He thought that the reason he stood here today was because of his tenacity and his willingness to seize opportunities.
Working with Professor Lu was an inflection point in his life.
Now that lithium-air batteries had become a reality, the era of printing money with lithium-sulfur batteries was over; the entire industry was being turned upside down...
Liu Wanshan felt like he was at another turning point in his life.
And this time, he hoped that he made the right decision...
High-tech zone area, Zhongshan New Materials factory.
Just a few days ago, Liu Wanshan was still worried about his overstocked inventory, but ever since he returned from Professor Lu’s house, he had been as happy as a clam.
The assistant didn’t know what was going on, so he walked up to CEO Liu and asked, “Hey, boss, what’s the good news?”
Liu Wanshan smiled and said, “Go gather the senior engineers at the plant.”
The assistant was confused, and he asked, “For what?”
Liu Wanshan smiled and said, “To help the Institute for Advanced Study! What else? Call Professor Li Rongen, he should be interested... Forget about it, I’ll call him myself.”
The assistant looked at the boss and said, “But those guys are the backbone of our factory, and we need them to adjust the production line. If we send them away... What’s going to happen to our factory?”
“Why are you in such a worry! Why would we need to adjust the production line, you don’t even know what we’re producing! From now on, shut off all electric vehicle lithium-sulfur batteries production and only focus on small-sized batteries!”
Seeing how the boss didn’t seem to be joking, the assistant began to sweat.
“But—”
“No buts, just do what I say!” Liu Wanshan laughed and said, “Once our engineers come back from the Institute for Advanced Study, you’ll realize how wise my decision is!”
...
Zhongshan New Materials urgently dispatched a team of engineers to the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study. Beep Beep Charging, on the other hand, finally finished the relocation of their research and development team. They moved from Shanghai to the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study.
The process wasn’t smooth; in fact, they paid quite a price.
First of all, not everyone was happy to move for their job. And because of the recent changes in the company’s structure, people’s expectations of the company’s future had been disrupted. In the end, only five technicians were willing to follow Wang Qiang and to move to Jinling.
A week ago, there were a dozen technicians...
In addition to the loss of talent, what disappointed Wang Qiang the most, the Chief Technology Officer of Beep Beep Charging, was that these people didn’t receive the best hospitality at the Institute for Advanced Study...
One could even make the case that they were being mistreated.
What bothered him the most was that they had to move from Shanghai to Jinling because of Star Sky Technology, but now, the people at Star Sky were treating them coldly...
He almost wanted to resign!
“Did you bring the designs?”
Wang Qiang looked at the grumpy old man and nodded.
“I did.”
The old man frowned.
“Let me see.”
Wang Qiang took out the blueprint and handed it over.
The old man casually glanced at the blueprint designs.
Wang Qiang was expecting a comprehensive evaluation, but the old man snorted and spoke.
“What the hell is this?”
Wang Qiang nearly fainted.
Wang Qiang’s colleagues couldn’t stand this anymore, and a man with a bald cut stepped forward and spoke furiously.
“We spent months with our supervisor on this design! Let’s see your design then!”
“Brother Zhao, it’s fine.”
“Get off me!”
The old man looked at the young engineer and spoke with a smile.
“Who is your supervisor?”
Wang Qiang paused for a second and said, “Professor Liu Zhongpei, an electrical engineering professor from Aurora University!”
Even though Liu Zhongpei wasn’t an academician, nor was he in the Changjiang Scholars Program, he was still well known in his respective field and had participated in many scientific research projects.
For example, his supervisor worked on the Haizhou demonstration reactor project.
However, after hearing this name, the old man...
Didn’t react at all.
“Liu Zhongpei?” The old man frowned and thought for a second. He then shook his head and said, “Don’t know him.”
No wonder these students created this garbage. I don’t even know who their supervisor is.
Of course, the old man didn’t say this out loud.
If he did, the student engineers might have punched him in the face.
However, even though the old man didn’t say anything, his face told the whole story.
The researcher named Zhao couldn’t stand this anymore.
“Who are you then?!”
“Me?” The old man raised his eyebrows and said, “Professor Lu asked me to help you, and he didn’t tell you who I am?”
Wang Qiang froze.
So did the researcher named Zhao.
The other young researchers looked at one another.
When they first came to the Institute for Advanced Study, they were told to find Professor Wang, but they didn’t know who this Wang person was...
No one had ever mentioned it to them.
The old man wasn’t angry at the fact that the students didn’t recognize him. Instead, he smiled and said, “Don’t you millennials love using your phone? I’m Wang Zengguang, go find me on Baidu.”
He shook his head and walked away.
Wang Qiang took out his phone and searched up the name. Someone behind him exclaimed, “Wang, Academician Wang Zengguang!”
Academician?
Wang Qiang looked at the researcher and spoke.
“You found him?”
The researcher nodded and handed over his phone.
Wang Qiang looked at the phone and instantly froze.
Academician Wang Zengguang!
The chief engineer of the China National Nuclear Corporation!
Leader in the domestic nuclear and electrical engineering industry! Worked on Pangu, ferrofluid electric energy, and other fusion reactor projects!
Wang Qiang finally remembered who this person was.
Wang Qiang knew this old man looked familiar; that was the reason he took the criticism so quietly.
But now, he finally realized why the old man looked familiar...
Back when Wang Qiang was still in school...
Wang Qiang remembered his supervisor talking about someone else other than Lu Zhou, who was a god in the field of nuclear engineering.
It turned out that his supervisor’s idol was Academician Wang. Academician Wang’s ferrofluid electric energy generator was even taught in textbooks around the country...
Wang Qiang was shocked.
He finally realized why CEO Li was so confident that Star Sky Technology could guide them to success, that he even refused help from Tesla.
I can’t believe Lu Zhou was able to get this guy to help us...
There’s no way we won’t succeed!
