Take Arada back to the past

Chapter 858, Technology Transfer
After listening, Yang Xiaole pondered for a moment, and finally shook his head slightly.

"Sir, I'm really sorry, I can't get involved in this matter."

Grandpa Mou was indeed very successful for a while, but after the bigwig who protected him passed away, Grandpa Mou was imprisoned the following year.

He stayed there for 16 years.

The timing was coincidental.

Creating a god is ultimately not about creating a real god, and it's about creating a group of people. When the time is right, that's when it will be broken.

He wasn't afraid of the trouble that would follow.

He just didn't want to be in the limelight.

How many truly powerful conglomerates actually emerge?
Every year, a large amount of money is spent to erase information sources.

Not only is he uninterested in showing off, but several members of his own family have already entered the system.

There are also those who go into finance.

He is no longer suitable to go public.

Otherwise, they wouldn't use their Hong Kong identity to invest in mainland China.

Old Wang didn't show much expression when he heard this, but asked, "Oh, why? This is a rare opportunity! Let the rich help the poor, and now we just need a role model."

Yang Xiaole smiled upon hearing this: "I know, but my current situation is simply not suitable."

Hearing this, Old Man Wang pondered.

Yes! Yang Xiaole really doesn't need that kind of reputation anymore.

Of course, he was just trying it out.

Yang Xiaole looked at his expression and smiled: "I really can't, but that doesn't mean others can't."

These words made Old Man Wang thoughtful.

"I won't tell you who it is for now, but you'll find out in a while. Don't worry, it will definitely meet your requirements."

Yang Xiaole kept everyone in suspense for a moment.

I don't think I've changed this history, and the Nande Group is now a fairly large private enterprise.

Old Wang pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly: "Alright, then I won't ask anymore. Actually, there are two other important things I wanted to discuss with you today."

"whats the matter?"

"The first issue is a bit sensitive. The Middle East is not very peaceful right now, and we want to sell some equipment there, but we need to be discreet. Do you have any channels for that?"

Yang Xiaole raised an eyebrow upon hearing this.

He was naturally aware of this matter.

In fact, many military industrial enterprises are currently facing a severe shortage of orders, with production lines forced to shut down and a large amount of equipment sitting idle.

Even more seriously, some companies are struggling to pay their employees' basic wages, and their survival difficulties are intensifying.

In order to keep their businesses running, some companies have had to make difficult transformations and shift their production capacity to the civilian sector.

At that time, a peculiar phenomenon emerged: companies produced agricultural machinery, daily hardware, and even kitchen utensils.

The entire industry has fallen into an unprecedented slump, and its survival is precarious. There are still huge gaps and challenges ahead in achieving the goal of industrial revitalization.

Iran and Iraq have already done a lot.

Due to the hostage crisis involving the Persian cats, the Bald Eagle government decided to impose an embargo on them, cutting off their access to equipment.

At the same time, although Russia maintains a relatively close relationship with Iraq, it has adopted a relatively cautious approach to its equipment support strategy, unwilling to invest all its resources in a single ally.

Smaller regions, either due to insufficient military production capacity or political risks, are unwilling to get involved in this regional conflict.

The mainland is indeed a very good route.

More importantly, we have a relatively complete production system. Although our technology has not yet reached the world's leading level, and is even lagging behind, our products have significant price advantages and reliable performance in actual combat.

He recalled that back then, the mainland did indeed take this route, and it was even a supply chain between the two sides.

The better you play, the more you earn.

Pulling himself out of his thoughts, he smiled and said, "Yes, are you looking for a one-off operation, or a long-term, ongoing one? If it's the long-term one, do you personally transport the goods, or do you simply need a discreet channel?"

"Of course, it has to be a long-term one. A covert channel is definitely needed. If it can be delivered to a relatively safe and designated location, that would be ideal, but we can't expose our operations."

Old Wang spoke softly.

After hearing this, Yang Xiaole thought for a moment and realized that Viktor had his own way of doing things, so he was naturally the most suitable candidate.

If you want to be discreet, then a port in Myanmar would be the best place to transit.

That would be the most suitable approach.

The items are left there; go and get them yourself, and then hand them over to Victor to sell.

This guy sells a lot of equipment every year.

Of course, the other party definitely contacted more than just him; there were many other people involved.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Sure, you can leave the goods at Maungdaw Port in Myanmar, and someone will come to pick them up later. But you'll need to provide a price list and samples."

"Mengdu Port?"

Old Wang silently wrote down the address: "Okay, I understand. Our people will send some samples over there. Who will receive them?"

"I'll go! It'll be more convenient for you guys decide on a time!"

"Preparation may take some time, and with shipping included, it'll be about a month from now!"

"it is good!"

Yang Xiaole naturally agreed.

Old Wang nodded slightly upon hearing this: "Well, let's leave it at that for now."

He paused for a moment, then said, "There's another important thing. Your company has a health supplement called 'Life Potion,' which comes in five levels, right?"

Yang Xiaole glanced at him upon hearing this.

"Yes, that's right! It was in the medicinal wine I gave you."

There are no secrets in the world, and it's no secret that the company provides "life-saving potions" regularly according to rank.

Over the years, the efficacy of the medicine has become known to everyone in the company.

Even though he tried his best to block the news, some information must have leaked out.

After all, the company is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more people, including all kinds of people.

It's still very difficult to maintain absolute secrecy.

Actually, such medicines do exist in the world.

Many people will probably notice that many celebrities, wealthy people, or political figures can live to be in their eighties, nineties, or even over a hundred years old.

Even if they have cancer, they can live much longer than the average person.

These are naturally the related technologies.

Similar studies exist even in mainland China.

It's just that these things are not known to ordinary people, and ordinary people don't have the ability to afford such medical expenses.

"What? The medicinal wine you gave me contained these things?"

Old Wang was shocked.

Yang Xiaole nodded slightly upon hearing this: "Yes! Haven't you noticed that you've been getting sick much less lately?"

Old Wang looked at him, calmed himself down, and then remembered.

"Indeed! I can say I haven't been sick at all in the past few years. Really?"

"of course it's true."

After Yang Xiaole finished speaking, he asked, "Who wants that thing?"

Then he laughed at himself. Who wouldn't want that thing!
He was thinking to himself that since the mainland had a geographical advantage and would be the first to know about this, people abroad would eventually find out about it too.

Old Wang nodded gently: "Yes, some elderly comrades are not in very good health and want some to see if it can help improve their health. The price is negotiable."

Yang Xiaole pondered over this.

After a while, he finally looked up.

He agreed: "Okay, but I have a condition." Old Wang's eyes lit up; he hadn't expected things to go so smoothly: "Tell me, what's the condition?"

"At least one-third of the contents need to be allocated to researchers, especially those in the military industry."

He knew that once the goods were inland, he had no control over how they were used.

He still wanted to benefit more those researchers who worked quietly behind the scenes.

Of course, it wasn't just these people who made contributions, but he couldn't take care of everyone.

Moreover, there were many insects inside, and he couldn't check them one by one, but he believed that most of them were good.

After listening, Old Wang asked, "Is that all?"

"Um... there's one more thing. You can't reveal that the stuff came from Hong Kong. You need to issue a statement saying that it's your own research result."

Announcing it now would be detrimental to the mainland.

It doesn't matter to him as a single company; even if he's targeted, the impact will be limited.

If the mainland is targeted, it may face many problems in the future.

For some people, money and power are indeed important, but life is more important.

Old Wang seemed to be deep in thought.

After thinking for a moment, he immediately agreed: "Sure! How many can you provide? And what's the price?"

Yang Xiaole shook his head: "No need for money. 1000 bottles of level 5 potions per year. If there are special circumstances, we can increase it appropriately."

They didn't give too much at the beginning.

Is this a large quantity?

Compared to a population of over one billion, it's incredibly small.

Old Wang sighed with emotion upon hearing this.

He didn't speak, but stood there thinking.

After a long pause, he said, "Okay, thank you for this. The country will not forget you."

Yang Xiaole smiled and didn't pay much attention to it.

Old Wang is already the fifth oldest in his family, which is not low.

The matter has been settled.

Yang Xiaole then said, "Is the equipment arrangement set for a month from now? If so, then you can make the arrangements. I will send someone to Myanmar to discuss the specifics."

"Okay! Let's set it for a month from now!"

Old Wang finalized the matter.

He then asked with a wry smile, "Did you bring a lot of researchers from the Russians?"

Yang Xiaole smiled upon hearing this: "It's alright, it's alright! Not much!"

They've given us information during this period.

The number of researchers leaving Russia began to increase at the end of last year, and especially at the beginning of this year, the number surged.

There are many top researchers and even scientists among them.

Scientists aren't just anyone; they are people who have made significant achievements in their respective fields.

He remembered that in 2022, the year after his death, there were only a little over a thousand people still alive, not counting those who had passed away.

This number is the result of the accumulation of several generations.

It wasn't surprising that Old Man Wang knew.

There are no secrets in the world, after all, the transfer of people requires a large number of people to carry out the transfer.

Moreover, these people were not slaves and could communicate with the outside world.

There will always be leaks.

Old Wang didn't know exactly how many people Yang Xiaole had poached; it was a secret.

Thinking of this, he still asked, "Could you spare some people to come over? Don't worry, the wages and benefits won't be too low. After all, Hong Kong Island's industrial base is really too weak!"

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole pondered for a moment.

He then said, "Yes, but there's one condition."

There will be quite a few people coming from Russia in the next few years, and he can't handle it all by himself.

It's not that he can't absorb them; he has so many companies, he can just put a few people in the corresponding fields in each company.

However, many of his secretive businesses are located overseas.

These Russians, a little bit is fine, but too much isn't good.

After all, it's easier to recruit researchers abroad than here; as long as you have money, you can recruit people from any field.

On the contrary, the mainland is indeed lacking these talents.

"Oh, go ahead!"

“I want to get a few more plots of land. I won’t make things difficult for you. I will pay 10% more than the auction price. I want to set up a science and technology industrial park and build some large factories.”

Many economic zones have indeed opened up, but the land allocated is limited.

His initial plan was to build an industrial park on Hainan Island similar to Hong Kong Island, for example, he wanted to build a chip research and development and processing company.

However, the transportation there is really terrible.

It will be more difficult to attract talent in the future.

He can't keep throwing money around for fun.

There are still many things to consider.

TSMC's initial development and growth relied on orders from several major semiconductor companies.

As a major shareholder in these companies, he naturally wants his own companies to benefit.

Hong Kong Island can serve as a research center, while this area can serve as a production center.

What he was really after was the honeymoon period with the bald eagle.

It's important to know that the import and export level of mainland China has now been raised to Level V, a treatment that is common in European countries.

During this period, the mainland also acquired a large amount of advanced technology.

There shouldn't be any major problems in transferring some foreign technologies to the mainland now.

It won't work in a few years.

When the Russian bear's decline becomes irreversible in the next year or two, the bald eagle's attitude will undergo a complete 100-degree turn.

Trade is normal, but the high-tech sector can be suppressed in a roundabout way.

So he wants to get one here.

Old Wang pondered these words.

Finally, she nodded slightly: "Okay, I understand. We'll have a meeting to discuss this later. You know, many things can't be decided by one person alone these days."

Yang Xiaole nodded and said, "I know what you're saying! But you need to hurry, I'm in a bit of a rush."

"it is good!"

Old Wang agreed.

After the deal was settled, the two discussed some details, and then Yang Xiaole left the meeting room.

Old Wang watched Yang Xiaole's departing figure, feeling slightly dazed.

I never knew that what I've been drinking all this time was such a treasure!

Then came a wave of heartache.

He had given some to Old Man Ye when he was unwell.

Because he felt that this product was really effective in regulating his body.

……

After Yang Xiaole came out, he checked the time and decided to stay in Hong Kong Island for a while.

P.S.: I've been experiencing some health issues lately, plus writer's block, so I'm too embarrassed to even write a leave request. I'm truly sorry.
