Break out of the courtyard

Hearing that someone was still coveting the technology for the longevity potion, Zhang Heping couldn't help but sneer. "Putting aside the dangers of raising blood slaves, I'd like to ask, if I'm willing to share the technology related to the 120-year longevity potion, what technology can you offer me in exchange?"

As soon as Zhang Heping said this, the main venue suddenly became noisy, and the participants began to whisper to each other and discuss the possibility of exchanging technology.

At the same time, the online live broadcast barrage ushered in a climax, with the screen full of discussion texts saying all kinds of things.

A male expert from China, standing at the podium, turned on the microphone and asked in Mandarin, "Mr. Zhang, is what you just said true?"

"Are you really willing to exchange the technology related to the 120-year lifespan potion with us?"

Zhang Heping waited for a moment, until everyone in the room was captivated by the man's question, before he said slowly, "Professor Jerry's understanding of Chinese is still lacking!"

"What I said just now, coupled with that tone, was clearly a sarcastic remark. My point was that you couldn't offer me comparable mature technology in exchange. Do you understand?"

Professor Jerry from Magnesium hadn't given up yet. "What if you could get it out? Would you be willing to exchange it?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Heping turned around for the first time and said seriously, "As long as your technology satisfies me, I can even trade you for the technology that makes a potion that makes life span 160 years, not to mention 120."

"Okay, Mr. Zhang! I will bring your idea back to China and try my best to promote cooperation in this area!" After Professor Jerry finished speaking, he nodded to Zhang Heping, turned off the microphone, and leaned back in his chair.

"The exchange I mentioned to Professor Jerry of Magnesium also applies to other countries, companies, and individuals!" Zhang Heping retracted his gaze, looked back at the camera in front of him, and said:

"Of course, if it's just immature technology, or just speculation, I wouldn't trade it for the lifespan potion technology."

"Back to the topic just now, in the next few years, I will focus on the research project of converting brain waves into mental power."

"Let me emphasize that this is not theology or metaphysics, but a very scientific research project."

"In my space program, the hibernation chamber on the spacecraft is equipped with nutrient solution, regeneration and repair fluid, life-extending potion, etc., which can maximize the protection of astronauts during long-distance interstellar voyages."

"However, a spacecraft cannot be fully autonomous during flight. If astronauts could control the spacecraft and robots with their brainwaves while in hibernation, and could also remotely log into a virtual network and interact with family and friends, who would be afraid of long voyages?"

After Zhang Heping finished speaking, someone asked about the details of the technology exchange, as if they all had some incredible secret research projects.

Many people did not believe the mental power research project launched by Zhang Heping today, because he only gave a text description, which was not even a preliminary theory.

However, it was useless for them to believe it because they could not provide the technical information that Zhang Heping needed.

The national team that could provide Zhang Heping with technical information exchange was currently meeting to discuss articles related to mental power on the World Internet Forum.

Hua Lao, Li Lao, and others who were watching the live stream on their mobile phones never expected that Zhang Heping would reveal the matter of mental power after not mentioning the longevity potion and regeneration repair fluid.

The key point is that what Zhang Heping posted were all his own insights on spiritual power, which had nothing to do with the confidential information and projects of the Sanxingdui underground base. Naturally, no one could use the confidentiality regulations to talk to him.

Hua Lao thought that since the higher-ups wanted to suppress the matter of spiritual power, this time they had to come up with some information that would impress Zhang Heping, and this matter probably wouldn't end well.

The point is, Zhang Heping also announced that he agreed to use the lifespan potion of 120, or even the lifespan potion of 160 to exchange for technology from other countries!
What kind of technology can impress Zhang Heping?
The answer is almost in the live video!

The Chinese people thought it was a star gate, because Zhang Heping spoke about his paper on the principle of star gate transmission on the first day of the meeting.

But what outsiders don't know is that Area 51 in the United States is currently not as good at theoretical research on stargates as Zhang Heping's paper. If they don't produce some other technical information, they may not even be able to see Zhang Heping.

In contrast, in China, although the articles related to mental power published by Zhang Heping are relatively simple, the principle of converting brain waves into mental power has opened up new ideas for researchers at the Sanxingdui underground base in concise and easy-to-understand words.

However, what annoyed them greatly was that Zhang Heping had left a lot of key information unwritten.

This is like the sister took off her pants on her own initiative, but the other party just rubbed her for a moment and that was it. Who can stand this!
In the afternoon meeting, Zhang Heping did not talk about mental power anymore, but instead discussed the future development of medical care and some rare diseases with medical experts from various countries.

The meeting lasted until the evening and came to an end.

At the request of the participants at the main venue, Zhang Heping took a group photo with them.

Needless to say, the C position naturally belongs to Zhang Heping!

After all, he was the host of this conference and was responsible for the food, drink, defecation and urination of more than 10,000 scientists.

However, although the meeting has ended, the post-meeting exchanges have just begun.

This time, Zhang Heping called in experts from the mainland and asked them to accompany expert groups from their respective industries and visit the factories and key units of the Heping Group with guards.

For example, the satellite manufacturing plant at Heping Aerospace, the clinical treatment with regenerative repair fluid at Heping Hospital, and the chip factory and shipyard in Wucheng, etc.

For Zhang Heping, these things are just a matter of words.

In the end, the allocation was still handled by Elder Hua and Director Wang, and it was the people below who were running around exhausted.

Zhang Heping's explanation to Hua Lao and Director Wang was simple: he wanted to keep these foreign experts!

Regardless of whether they really want to stay or stay for ulterior motives for the sake of technology, as long as they can stay and create value, it will not be in vain for the time he wasted at the venue these days.

That being said, however, Elder Hua, Elder Li, and Grandma Zheng had other opinions, but they didn't want to tell Zhang Heping.

After more than ten years of development, the technology in many industries in China has far surpassed the international level.

Zhang Heping is now bringing in so many foreigners, but it actually doesn’t help much in research and development.

But from another perspective, these foreigners who are willing to stay can be used as media spies to monitor the domestic business environment.

If something like the Power Grid Shares incident happens again, foreigners in Heping factories and units will be the first to speak out in foreign media!

Who has led media from various countries to establish their own news websites under the influence and promotion of the Peace Group?
The video of this technology conference was posted by these media on the homepage of their respective websites and broadcast, greatly expanding the influence of the conference.

After the meeting, the Peace Prize winners list page on the World Internet Forum was available for viewing again.

The award winners shortlisted from July last year to March this year are still on the list.

Moreover, the title on the list of winners is the information about the winners of the 6th Peace Prize.

In other words, the 6th Peace Prize Award Ceremony, which was not held this year, may simply be postponed to next year.

To Zhang Heping's slight surprise, neither the mainland nor other countries rushed to him to discuss cooperation. It seemed they were all uninterested in "spiritual power," or perhaps they simply didn't believe in it.

In this regard, Zhang Heping did not calculate the frustration of failure, nor did he care about the recruitment of experts. Instead, he returned to his previous state of concentrating on learning.

A virtual dream game cannot be created by just a few advertising videos. There are still many technical difficulties that he needs to solve!
Therefore, many external affairs of the Zhang family fell on Chen Shuting, such as the recruitment and winning over of experts.

The benefits of Heping Group are still very generous, especially the benefit of being able to apply for free trials of longevity medicine for yourself and your family, which is more attractive than an annual salary of one million or tens of millions.

Even so, the recruitment feedback Chen Shuting received was not very ideal. Many foreign experts had projects on hand and could not leave in the short term. In the end, they only left a polite message to contact them later.

As this group of foreign experts left and stayed, the domestic situation finally responded to the "mental power" information published by Zhang Heping on the World Internet Forum.

On July 29, Director Wang called Zhang Heping and asked him to return to Shenzhen, saying that someone from Xishu wanted to discuss technical cooperation with him.

Zhang Heping refused without even thinking about it.

"Heping, these people have special identities and cannot leave the country casually due to confidentiality regulations!" Director Wang tried to persuade him, "When you can come back someday, I'll ask them to wait and take them around Shenzhen."

Zhang Heping didn't want to waste time and said directly, "I'll ask Xiaobei to go over there on my behalf. If there's anything, tell Xiaobei directly and don't ask them to beat around the bush."

"Xiaobei is fine too!" Director Wang didn't insist, lest Zhang Heping get stubborn. "If there are any problems, I'll have Xiaobei call you."

After the two hung up the phone, Zhang Heping shouted towards the desk in the middle and called his eldest son Zhang Bei over.

"Take your bodyguards and go to Shenzhen Peace College later." Zhang Heping turned his gaze from the computer monitor and said to his eldest son, Zhang Bei, "Someone seems to want to cooperate on a mental power research project. Go over and confirm their conditions."

Zhang Bei held a roll of information and didn't refute it. Instead, he asked, "Dad, what if the person is asking about the longevity potion?"

"That depends on what they offer in exchange!" Zhang Heping said calmly, "Don't worry too much about it. You just need to get to know them when you go back. You don't need to make any decisions."

After Zhang Bei understood the mission of this trip, he put down the documents in his hand and went back upstairs to change clothes.

Just as Zhang Heping expected, the 18 people who came from Xishu were all here to collaborate on the research and development of mental power.

When Zhang Bei arrived at the place, he found that in addition to Vice President Qian, there were two middle-aged strong men and 16 old men and women in the conference room.

"This is the eldest son of Consultant Zhang, Zhang Bei!" After introducing Zhang Bei, Mr. Qian introduced the old men and women present to Zhang Bei.

"This handsome guy isn't married yet!" A young lady who looked to be in her fifties said with a smile, "We have two beautiful female assistants in our office. Would you like to meet them?"

"No, thank you!" Zhang Bei refused with a smile and walked to the conference table and sat down.

Then, Vice President Qian sat down at the head of the conference table and briefly talked about the origins of these people and what had happened.

"Can I first take a look at the Ruomu brain-computer information you brought?" Zhang Bei didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

This action actually made it difficult for these old men and women to cope with the situation.

"Xiaobei!" Elder Qian, at the top, tried to smooth things over, explaining, "Those materials are top secret. Unless we confirm that you will also participate in the relevant research, we can only apply for permission to view the materials."

"It's okay if you don't want to see it. I just want to ask a few simple questions." Zhang Bei nodded slightly. "Do you teachers know why the brain-machine made of gold is in the form of a mask, rather than a necklace or headdress?"

These old experts were originally maintaining the attitude of the older generation and looked down on Zhang Bei, but they didn't expect that his first question would leave everyone unable to answer!

Zhang Bei waited for a moment, but didn't hear an answer, so he asked his second question, "When brain waves are converted into mental power, theoretically, they consume the bioelectricity in the brain. But what does it actually consume?"

"Cough!" A thin old man with gray hair put his right fist to his mouth and coughed, then replied:
"We have previously conducted animal studies on similar issues, and we only detected abnormal reductions in trace elements in experimental mice and monkeys, as well as electrolyte imbalances, arrhythmias, and poor concentration."

Zhang Bei stood up and said, "I've finished asking questions. When I get back, I'll tell my dad about the situation here."

The old lady who had just asked Zhang Bei if he wanted to meet the beautiful female assistant said with a smile, "Little comrade, why don't you call your father now and tell him about the situation and see what he has to say? Do you think it's okay?"

Zhang Bei frowned and looked at Vice President Qian, as if he had something to say that was not appropriate to say here.

When Vice President Qian saw Zhang Bei's expression, he immediately had a bad feeling.

"It's okay. Just say whatever you want to say here, so that I won't tell them the wrong thing." Old Qian sat forward a little, raised his left hand and pressed Zhang Bei twice, indicating that he should sit down and talk.

Zhang Bei didn't sit down. Instead, he frowned and looked at the group of old men and women. After a moment's deliberation, he said, "Teachers, your unit is confidential. Please don't spread what I'm going to say next."

"Of course!" the old lady agreed hastily. "The level of our meeting today is top secret."

Zhang Bei waited a moment longer, and when no one else spoke, he continued, "My dad is currently researching two things: a brain-boosting nutrient solution, and a micro-brain-computer interface."

"I can't confirm whether the information you brought is useful to my father, so I won't stay here."

Seeing that Zhang Bei was about to leave, Mr. Qian hurriedly stood up and pulled Zhang Bei to sit next to him.

Elder Qian frowned and thought for a moment, then turned to his old colleagues sitting on his left and right and asked, "Zhang Bei and his two younger brothers are both specially appointed researchers at our underground base, with two independent laboratories."

"Moreover, Consultant Zhang's research projects and materials did not avoid the three brothers."

"As long as the three brothers are willing to learn, even the techniques related to the 120-year and 160-year lifespan potions will be taught to them by Consultant Zhang. Unfortunately, they have only recently delved into biology."

"Xiaobei!" Old Qian turned to look at Zhang Bei and asked, "From what you said just now, you have been in Hong Kong Island recently. Should you be learning about the conversion of brain waves into mental power?"

Zhang Bei nodded and didn't say much.

After getting the answer, Mr. Qian looked at the group of old men and women and said, "You keep saying that you can't let go of your responsibilities and don't have time to go home and spend time with your grandchildren."

"The successor is here!" Elder Qian pointed at Zhang Bei and said, "Apply for reading permission for him and see if Xiao Bei can understand the information you brought!"

The group of old men and women were a little confused. Although Mr. Qian had laid so much groundwork, it could not stop the reality.

That's the kid's background; he couldn't pass the review... (End of Chapter)
