When I am reborn, I just want to be a top student

Hong Kong.

An hour after Xiong Guodong was taken into custody, a white man smoking a cigar received the news.

"It seems we've failed again. This is absolutely terrible news!"

Michael listened to the news from his subordinates, his eyes filled with anger, but his expression remained extremely calm, revealing a contradictory nature.

"Fuck, damn Galaxy Technology, damn Xuanwu Battery!"

Michael grew angrier the more he thought about it; anyone could see the immense value of the Xuanwu Battery.

Anyone who masters the relevant technology can easily earn a large sum of money.

It wasn't just Ginnar that offered a high reward; there were more than a dozen international rewards offered for Xuanwu battery technology.

They bribed technical staff or management, or stole Xuanwu battery products.

There are many different methods.

Some are even planning to use their own market as leverage to secure the technology of Xuanwu Battery for factory construction.

However, none of this has anything to do with Michael.

He only wanted to steal some technology from Galaxy Technology and then exchange it for a large sum of money.

However, to my surprise, I failed three times in a row.

After composing himself, Michael pulled out a phone and said in a harsh tone, "Ginnar, I think you absolutely need to compensate me."

"I've failed three times and suffered heavy losses. You must compensate me!"

Michael's tone was rude and showed no respect for Ginnar whatsoever.

In his eyes, Ginnar was just a lucky guy; if it weren't for his older brother Masla, he wouldn't even have the chance to appear in front of him.

Upon hearing Michael's words, Ginnar, on the other end of the phone, retorted without hesitation, "Michael, that's unreasonable."

"I'll provide the money, you do the work."

"If you bring me what I want and what I need, then you will naturally receive the reward I give you."

"I don't care how many times you've failed, or how much you've lost; I only care about your abilities."

"Clearly, you haven't demonstrated the ability to make me willingly part with my money."

"It seems I may have overestimated your reputation, Vulture."

Even the least capable person will naturally develop an air of superiority once they reach the level of a billionaire.

So, after hearing Michael say that, Ginnar didn't give Michael any face at all.

Upon hearing these words, Michael's face contorted with anger.

“Ginnar, I have to tell you something: this is China, not our country.”

"This is a country with a different system and national conditions, and a different race and culture than ours."

"Therefore, it is extremely difficult for us to develop our influence here."

"My failures three times do not mean I am incompetent; on the contrary, they are proof of my ability."

"If it were anyone else, they would absolutely not have the capability to launch three operations in China without interruption."

"China is a no-go zone for mercenaries, and a black hole for international powers."

“Ginnar, believe me, you won’t find a more professional and capable partner than me.”

“My losses this time are huge and very serious; it’s almost like I’ve lost most of my achievements in China.”

"Five million US dollars as compensation is not excessive at all."

Michael gradually calmed down and said to Ginnar.

"Five million dollars? I think Michael, you're probably still dreaming."

"I'm telling you, that's simply impossible."

"Out of humanitarian considerations, I can compensate you with ten thousand dollars."

"No more possible!"

Ginnar could never accept Michael's offer, but what he had just said did make a lot of sense, so Ginnar compromised and offered $10,000 as compensation to Michael.

Ten thousand dollars!
Michael gave a cold laugh and said in his final statement, "Ginnar, I'll compromise one last time: four million as compensation, and this matter will end here."

"I'll add another ten thousand dollars, but I want to hear you tell me a joke!"

"If you speak well, I might be able to give you a little more."

Michael's eyes were cold, as if he had made a decision, and he said directly, "Ginnar, it seems that I was too mild-mannered and caused you to misunderstand."

"The British Empire Bank, Elisa, are you familiar with this information I'm talking about?"

Ginnar didn't speak on the other end of the phone, so Michael continued, "Bald Eagle Commonwealth, Ohio State University, Monisha."

"That's enough, Michael, you shouldn't know these things."

"What exactly do you mean? What do you want to do?"

There was a clear hint of panic in Ginnar's tone.

Michael didn't speak; he remained silent.

An invisible pressure seemed to be transmitted to Ginnar through the telephone line.

As time went by, Ginnar's tone gradually changed.

From initial confidence, they gradually became somewhat anxious.

But no matter what Ginnar said, Michael remained silent.

As a result, Ginnar's tone gradually weakened, and he became less confident.

It's clear that the two names and addresses Michael just mentioned really resonated with Ginnar.

"Michael, what exactly do you want to do?"

With a hint of helplessness in his voice, Ginnar asked in a low voice.

“I already told you from the beginning that by accepting your commission, I have already lost the fruits of my labor in China that I have built up over so many years, and you need to compensate me.”

"Therefore, I only offered five million, and I'm willing to lower it to four million."

"This is not the price of the reward, but compensation."

"If I hadn't accepted your bounty, I wouldn't have suffered such a great loss."

"I think this needs to be calculated separately."

“Your failure to acknowledge my efforts and your questioning of my abilities will severely damage my reputation in the industry.”

"Therefore, I think it is very necessary for me to demonstrate my abilities to you."

“Listen, Genna, what I just said is only part of what I know.”

“If you really are unwilling to pay compensation, I think you will definitely regret it.”

Michael shrugged nonchalantly and said to Ginnar in a relaxed tone.

"Four million US dollars is impossible. I can only give you two million US dollars at most. That's my bottom line!"

"If you're willing, this matter can end here. If you're not, then I'll fly back to the Bald Eagle Federation immediately and get two million US dollars to upgrade security."

"Now, the choice is yours."

After a long silence, Ginnar finally spoke.

Upon hearing Ginnar's words, Michael's lips curled into a slight smile.

"Well, since I'm a businessman, I can barely accept two million."

"If you encounter any problems in the future, feel free to contact me. Vulture won't let you down."

"You should have my account, remember to transfer the money to me!" Michael said, and hung up the phone before Ginnar could reply, behaving extremely arrogantly.

Actually, what he just said wasn't entirely true.

China's actions did cause him losses, but not that serious.

It's at most a matter of $100,000.

Rebuilding it wouldn't cost much.

On the contrary, it was investigating Ginnar's intelligence that cost him half a million dollars, which was the biggest expense.

Fortunately, this intelligence did come in handy, and they managed to extract two million dollars from Ginnar, this fat sheep.

Overall, there's still some profit to be made, though it's not extremely lucrative.

Michael was naturally very satisfied with today's results.

Since the mission to steal the technical parameters of the Xuanwu Battery from Galaxy Technology has failed three times and resulted in heavy losses, there is no need to continue.

He had already made up his mind to abandon this mission.

I'll consider the two million dollars I got from Ginnar as my profit for this period of time.

To be honest, if it weren't for the concern about Masla behind Ginnar, Michael would never have let him off so easily.

In the Bald Eagle Federation, more wealth is not necessarily better; without the ability to safeguard wealth, one will only bring trouble upon oneself.

And that's exactly the kind of person Michael sees Ginnar as.

With his mind wandering, Michael went out, got into his car, and prepared to head to the airport to leave Hong Kong.

However, in the online world, a 'god' is watching Michael closely.

When Michael was about to leave, big data had already analyzed his itinerary and, combined with the current traffic situation, immediately formulated a meticulous plan.

The countdown at a traffic light five kilometers away was two seconds slower than usual.

This immediately caused an anomaly and resulted in a traffic jam.

A construction vehicle had to change its route due to traffic congestion.

Everything happened quietly and without attracting any attention.

There is no specific, obvious connection between each step.

However, guided by an invisible, mysterious force, the traffic gradually converged in Michael's direction.

Once Michael's car was on the road, it was like a fast-forward button had been pressed.

"Damn it, this place is really backward, even the traffic is so bad!"

Sitting in the car, Michael felt the car crawling along and couldn't help but complain.

However, just as Michael finished speaking...

"boom!"

The sound was followed by an overwhelming force that overturned the car Michael was in.

In that instant, Michael felt the world spinning around him, and he felt dizzy and lightheaded.

There was a car accident!

This was Michael's first thought, but he didn't think much of it.

But at this time.

Another screeching sound of brakes followed.

Upon hearing the screech of brakes, Michael's eyes widened instantly, a sense of foreboding washing over him.

My instinct was to unbuckle my seatbelt and run out of the car.

But, it's too late.

"boom!"

A loud crash resounded.

The vehicle was already severely damaged in the previous collision, and this latest impact compounded the damage.

This directly caused severe deformation of the car.

In the midst of the chaos, Michael had a feeling that he must be injured.

That was his last thought; before the car even stopped, he had already passed out.

The car accident that occurred on the streets of Hong Kong was also recorded by countless cameras.

However, no one would believe that the car accident was deliberately staged.

Because, from all perspectives, it is a coincidence within a coincidence, an accident within an accident.

……

The buzz surrounding the Nobel Prize winners continues.

Netizens are still debating why Wang Donglai won both the Nobel Prize in Chemistry and the Nobel Prize in Physics.

Through debate, the rhetoric has also been upgraded.

The debate has shifted from whether Wang Donglai deserves the award to whether his award has affected the fairness of the award and hindered academic development.

Meanwhile, some of the things Wang Donglai said on various occasions were also collected by those who were interested.

They appear frequently on various online platforms.

Wang Donglai's views on the international situation and the Bald Eagle Federation, in particular, became the focus of criticism.

“I said it long ago: Wang Donglai is a pure nationalist. He only cares about his own small area and has no international perspective. After all, he is a country bumpkin from the mountains.”

"To be honest, after learning the authenticity of these videos, I was very disappointed. I originally thought that Wang Donglai, who became the world's richest man, was a great figure with a global vision. I never expected him to be such a narrow-minded person."

"In just a few years, Galaxy Technology has become a global technology giant. If there's no problem with that, I'll walk upside down from now on."

"Exactly. Look at the shares of Galaxy Technology. Almost all of them are owned by Wang Donglai. How is that possible? It's not realistic at all. It's like science fiction."

"We've all been in China for a while now, so why are we making such a fuss over this little thing? Look what I've found out: Tangdu City and Qin Province have provided over 100 billion yuan in funding to Galaxy Technology in the past few years. Those who know, know what that means!"

"Are all the people upstairs idiots? Haven't you ever used Galaxy Technology's products? I don't believe your phones don't have Toutiao, Douyin, Neihan, or Pinyidao. If you don't have any of these, then I'll call you a caveman."

"Go and see how popular Galaxy Technology's Evergreen Liquid is. It's in short supply. I don't know the exact cost of Galaxy Technology's Evergreen Liquid, but it must be making a killing."

"Seriously, do the executives at Galaxy Technology really have absolutely no objections?"

"I have some information that most of Galaxy Technology's products were actually developed by Wang Donglai. The reason why Galaxy Technology spent a lot of money to build a research and development center and recruit talents was actually to cover up the fact that these R&D personnel were used as a talent pool."

"Everyone's saying things is getting more and more outrageous, how is this possible!"

"..."

There is a great deal of discussion online about Galaxy Technology, with some defending it and others questioning it.

However, at the official media level, the attitude is mostly positive.

Everyone's attention was focused on Wang Donglai winning two Nobel Prizes at once.

After all, this is also something that has made history.

It is certainly worth writing about in detail.

However, at this time.

Suddenly, news broke that Wang Donglai was not planning to attend the Nobel Prize ceremony.

The news immediately added fuel to the fire of the already heated discussion.

Just as everyone was verifying the authenticity of this news, Wang Donglai's Douyin account posted a video. (End of Chapter)
