Break out of the courtyard

Chapter 1006 Some things can be done, but absolutely cannot be said.
"What can I do to them?" Zhang Heping looked at Director Wang and said with a smile, "After Heping Group reduced its shareholding in its listed companies, it will be difficult to unify all companies to blacklist Ridao as before."

"So, it all depends on how the Hong Kong government sentences the attackers!"

After the Peace Group began its large-scale acquisition of gold and gold mines, it spent a considerable amount of money to reduce its holdings in all of its listed companies in order to cash out and support the gold acquisitions.

In addition, in some countries, money cannot be used to directly buy gold mines, but exchanging shares of certain listed companies under the Peace Group with certain individuals is very easy.

Therefore, Zhang Heping cannot act as recklessly as he did before when he blacklisted countries like Japan, the United States, and South Korea!

Many of the shares sold by the Peace Group ended up in the hands of foreign investors.

If Heping Group blacklists Japan Island and stops selling goods or providing related services to Japan Island, it will harm the interests of the listed company, and foreign shareholders, especially Japanese shareholders, may not agree.

Therefore, in the face of this attack, Zhang Heping did not let the Heping Group do futile work, but instead prepared to solve the problem of Japan Island once and for all.

As for how he will resolve it, that cannot be told to outsiders, not even his family!
Director Wang naturally didn't believe Zhang Heping's answer.

"Don't do anything foolish!" Director Wang Sumei said sternly, pulling Zhang Heping's arm. "Especially, you can't use biological weapons!"

"I'm not some Japanese devil, what are you talking about with biological weapons!" Zhang Heping's smile faded, and he said calmly, "There's no need to bring this up again. I don't have time to explain such trivial matters!"

After speaking, Zhang Heping went to the side and told his bodyguards to pull up a black cloth to cover the gold thread arrangement that was about to begin in the corner.

Currently, although a small number of people know that the Peace Group acquired gold in order to manufacture brain-computer interfaces, they have all tacitly kept it a secret. Instead, they have taken the opportunity to hoard some gold, waiting for Zhang Heping to announce the brain-computer interface materials and the subsequent surge in gold prices!

The corner on the first floor of the library was covered with a black cloth. Firstly, it was to avoid revealing that a lot of gold threads were buried there, so as to prevent others from coveting it; secondly, it was to avoid revealing how much gold was used in the virtual reality game equipment, so as to prevent the price of gold from soaring again.

After Zhang Heping disappeared into the other side of the black cloth carrying a large black box, Director Wang's gaze fell on Xie Wan and Xie Ting, who were helping to assemble the game pod at the door.

While pondering Zhang Heping's words, she also considered having the Xie sisters go behind the black cloth to find out what Zhang Heping was doing inside; her thoughts were in turmoil.

"Back off!"

"Young man, we know Consultant Zhang! Could you please ask him for us if we could..."

"Step back! This is the second warning!"

Director Wang was startled awake by a warning sound several decibels louder than usual from behind. When she looked in the direction of the sound, she saw that the four bodyguards standing in front of the black cloth had raised their stun guns and were pointing them at the more than thirty elderly experts in front of her!
"Don't shoot!"

Director Wang and Zhang Long at the door shouted almost at the same time!

"Don't move, don't cause any misunderstandings!" Director Wang hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade the senior experts, guessing that they probably also wanted to go behind the black cloth to find out what Zhang Heping was doing, but this was not something they should bring up.

"What do you want?" Zhang Long ran over quickly, stood in front of the black cloth, looked at the group of old experts, and frowned. "Didn't you see that there's a police cordon here, and bodyguards with guns on guard?"

The senior expert leading the team from Shenzhen smiled awkwardly and said, "Comrade Zhang Long, we just wanted to ask if there's anything we can do to help your father!"

"Just go outside and help set up the game pods, we don't need you here right now!" Zhang Long said, and before the old experts who wanted to find out the secrets could disperse, he went back to the door.

As soon as Zhang Long left, Director Wang said with a stern face, "What did you promise me before I came here?"

"It's agreed that you're not allowed to bother Consultant Zhang without my permission!"

"Is this how you fulfill your promises?"

These old men and women were already embarrassed after being lectured by that young man Zhang Long, and now Director Wang brought up the prior agreement, making them all feel even more ashamed.

However, just as these veteran experts turned around to go outside, the black cloths behind them all fell down.

"Xiao Long!" Zhang Heping came out carrying a large black box and casually said to Zhang Long, who hadn't even reached the door yet, "Have someone bring the assembled game pod over for installation!"

Although there were many gold threads, they were arranged quickly under Zhang Heping's mental guidance.

In the short time these people were talking, Zhang Heping had already set up the golden connection cables for 200 game pods, so he didn't need any outside help!
Zhang Heping was busy in the library of Heping College until the afternoon when a few Japanese people came over after hearing the news, wanting to explain the attack that night to Zhang Heping in person.

Unfortunately, Zhang Heping's attitude was the same as Chen Shuting of the Heping Group: he refused to meet with her!

Zhang Heping didn't want to see the Japanese islanders; they couldn't even get into the intersection of Heping Academy!

If it were just a matter of refusing to communicate, the Japanese islanders wouldn't be too worried, because someone on the mainland assured them that they would absolutely not allow Zhang Heping to drop the Lifespan Space Capsule on the Japanese mainland.

Furthermore, the Japanese islanders did not believe that Zhang Heping could create a biological weapon with such destructive power in just two days.

In fact, they were right. Zhang Heping did not produce any finished products during the two days and two nights he spent in the laboratory, because the cultivation of bacteria and viruses takes some time.

Of course, these things cannot be discussed with outsiders.

What worries the people of Ridao is that companies and factories still firmly controlled by the Heping Group, such as Tingmei Trading, Heping Hospital, Heping Real Estate, Heping Automobile, and Heping Chips, have launched countermeasures against Ridao.

Tingmei Trading does not export medicines and medical devices to Japan, Heping Hospital discourages Japanese patients from leaving, and Heping Real Estate evicts Japanese tenants. These are things that the people of Japan can still tolerate.

However, the actions of the Peace Group in uniformly lowering prices and acquiring three poorly managed car factories in mainland China to convert them into fuel vehicle production lines made the Japanese people restless!

In particular, Peace Motors' recent advertisements state that all its models will feature intelligent vehicle assistance systems to make driving more comfortable and safer.

This whole series of actions is specifically targeting inexpensive Nissan cars!

Most importantly, the ban on the sale of Peace chips to Japan not only cut off the possibility of Japanese cars imitating intelligent vehicle assistance systems, but also affected the production and research and development of information equipment in Japan.

It was precisely because of these resistance measures that Director Wang did not believe Zhang Heping would not retaliate against the Japanese.

In Director Wang's view, Zhang Heping's lack of retaliation is simply because he hasn't discovered who was behind the night raid.

But this time, Zhang Heping doesn't need to know who's behind it all!
If he can add to a person's lifespan, then he must have a way to subtract from it.

The only problem is how to target specific groups without harming unrelated people!
……

News of the expert team's obstruction at the library quickly reached the capital.

That evening, Zhang Bei, Zhang Yi, Luo Yi, and their group arrived at Hong Kong Island and successfully participated in the installation of the game pods on the first floor of the library.

The veteran experts are not allowed to participate in the installation of the game pods, but Zhang Yi and his group of young people are. This difference in treatment is really too obvious.

The next morning, the library was closed. After it became clear that the expert teams from Shenzhen and Chengdu were unable to enter, while Zhang Yi's 16-person brain-computer interface research team was allowed in, the members of both expert teams relayed their dissatisfaction to the mainland via telephone. Subsequently, Mr. Hua, who had originally abandoned his plans to come to Hong Kong, had no choice but to rush over that afternoon.

Because Zhang Heping did not refuse to meet, Hua Lao did not ask Zhang Bing and Ma Xiuzhen to come along, since they still had patients to take care of.

After arriving at the Peace Hotel on Hong Kong Island, Hua was immediately surrounded by the impatient senior experts and taken to the library on the west side. They hoped that Hua could persuade Consultant Zhang to allow them to join the construction of the virtual dream system at the library, so that they could learn about the network principles of the system.

When everyone arrived outside the library, Director Wang saw that Elder Hua was looking at the Japanese people who were talking to the bodyguards, and casually explained, "Those are people from the Japanese embassy in Hong Kong, and there's another group downstairs at the Peace Group!"

Mr. Hua gave a noncommittal "hmm," then looked at the bodyguards blocking the way with guns, wondering if it was possible to revoke their gun licenses and the various weapons they had hidden after Hong Kong's return to China.

On this issue, Mr. Hua actually supports taking it back!
The fact that the military is responsible for security at the Shenzhen Peace Academy, rather than having bodyguards from the Umbrella Corporation, demonstrates his attitude.

However, Umbrella Corporation has recently established branches in the capitals of countries such as Europe and the United States, and has obtained gun licenses for all of them.

In other words, even if the gun licenses on Hong Kong Island are confiscated, it will not make the Umbrella Corporation hand over their weapons, and may even backfire.

Especially if their gun licenses are confiscated, and another Japanese spy attack occurs, resulting in casualties among Umbrella Corporation security personnel, then it will be a huge problem!

Who knows, Zhang Heping might actually immigrate abroad!
This shows that Zhang Heping is facing quite a lot of trouble.

Director Wang spoke with the bodyguard captain for a few minutes, and the captain eventually agreed to go to the library to ask if Zhang Heping was willing to meet her and Elder Hua.

After a while, the bodyguard captain came out and led Director Wang and Elder Hua into the building, but did not let the other senior experts in.

The bodyguard captain led the man to the library entrance, handed him over to Zhang Nan who was waiting inside, and then turned and left.

"Xiao Nan, your dad..."

Before Hua Lao could finish speaking, Zhang Nan raised his right index finger to his lips, signaling the other party to be quiet.

Then, Zhang Nan led them to a row of benches by the door and pointed to the game pods and people diagonally opposite.

Under the watchful eyes of Mr. Hua and Director Wang, Zhang Heping and his children were standing around something. Except for Zhang Heping, who remained still, everyone else was flipping through books.

Just as Mr. Hua and Director Wang were looking around for Zhang Yi, Luo Yi, and the others, Zhang Nan typed a message on his phone:

[Zhang Yi and the others are in the game pod]

After being reminded, Mr. Hua and Director Wang realized that most of the game pods had their hatches open upwards, with only 16 game pods having their hatches closed.

Following suit, Mr. Hua took out his phone and typed a message: "What are they doing?"

[Enter learning materials into the regenerative brain server] Zhang Nan replied with a message on his mobile phone.

Then, the old man and the young man started communicating on their phones, while Director Wang next to them craned his neck to look at their phones.

More than ten minutes later, Zhang Nian put away a book and quietly left the regenerative brain server.

Then I saw her change to another book at the table, quietly return to her previous spot, and start flipping through the book again.

After Zhang Nan explained it by typing on his phone, Elder Hua and Director Wang finally understood that Zhang Bei and Zhang Nian were imprinting the contents of the book onto the regenerative brain server by reading it, thus manifesting the book in a virtual dream.

Zhang Heping doesn't need books because he doesn't require them; he can replicate a batch of books and papers into his dreams simply by relying on his memory.

As for Zhang Yi, Luo Yi, and the others inside the game pod, since they didn't know how to use mental power yet, we didn't dare let them record the book outside. Instead, we let them go into the virtual dream world to experience it.

The review of Zhang Yi's team members was not yet complete, and it was unknown what benefits Zhang Yi and Luo Yi would receive in the future, so Zhang Heping did not have them train their mental strength, but instead found them some random tasks to do.

Half an hour later, Zhang Nuo stepped back, placed an unfinished book face down on the long table behind him where books were kept, and then sat down on the chair by the door.

Seeing Zhang Nian holding his gold-rimmed glasses and rubbing his temples, Mr. Hua and Director Wang didn't disturb him.

Not long after, Zhang Nian also left, but she finished reading the book she was holding, so she didn't leave it face down on the table.

The next person to retreat to the rest chair by the door was actually Zhang Bei, the older brother.

Meeting the silent smiles of Zhang Nan, Zhang Nian, and Zhang Nuo, Zhang Bei could only smile helplessly.

With Zhang Long and Zhang Hu giving up reading one after another, the last one left was actually the fourth brother, Zhang Feng.

However, just as Zhang Feng was about to grab a book, she saw Zhang Heping, who hadn't moved, wave to Si Yatou, signaling her to leave and not let her read it.

This girl is clearly putting on a brave face!

Since she made it to the end, there's no need to make her keep reading books.

Zhang Heping has to check all the books his children have read, which is a waste of his energy and time.

After Zhang Feng left, Zhang Heping opened the hatches of the 16 game pods to prevent Zhang Yi, Luo Yi, and the others from continuing. This was because Zhang Heping needed to speed up the input of data and information and modify the dream world, and interference from other people's mental energy would affect his construction of the dream.

With so many people, it's inevitable that all sorts of noises will be made.

So, at Zhang Bei's signal, everyone else followed him out the door, except for Old Hua, who remained seated, silently watching Zhang Heping standing diagonally opposite him.

"Teacher Xiao Bei, what is the principle behind this virtual dream construction?" A fair-skinned, elegant female lecturer leaned behind Zhang Bei and asked, "Is it enough for you to just stand next to the regenerative brain server and meditate?"

“Dream construction is quite complex; none of us have mastered it yet.” Zhang Bei led the group away from the library entrance, stood behind the bodyguards on the right, and continued explaining:
"Even the simplest frog brain server is beyond our ability to build; we can only make minor adjustments based on the already constructed dream world."

Zhang Nan, standing beside Director Wang, said, "Once their identities are verified, they can go to our brain-computer interface training room to learn how to control their mental power."

"Only by learning to control one's own mental power can one conduct brain-computer interface experiments; otherwise, one can only be a test subject!"

"Grandma Wang!" Zhang Long reminded her from the side, "You know the dangers of mental power, so the investigation in this area will definitely be very strict."

"In addition, the safety of their family members should also be considered. It would be best to bring their family members to Shenzhen Peace College after the vetting process is completed."
