Chapter 511 Ways of Protection

God knows how Huang Guohui felt when he received this call while sitting in the tea room.

Especially right after the secret speech.

"Li Yan, are you sure?"

"Sure." Li Yan didn't explain.

Xiao Gao's hands were already cold when he heard what Li Yan said.

"Xiao Gao, drive calmly. No one dares to act rashly in this place. It's past nine in the evening. Don't get on the highway or take the side roads. Just drive along this road and circle around him."

"...Can you see the license plate number?"

"Lin A38295, black Audi A4, driver has a crew cut, should be wearing a light blue shirt, estimated height is around 175cm..."

"cough."

It's like arresting a suspect, who is following who?
Huang Guohui's cough and silence had basically made Li Yan relax her guard.

"I had a similar experience when I came to the teahouse, but the distance was too short to confirm..."

"You are our people, we will ensure your safety."

There is no excuse anymore, nothing can be said as good as telling the truth.

Unexpectedly, Li Yan did not ask any questions, but just responded silently, "I understand, thank you."

"It should be." Huang Guohui said, "We need to ensure your safety within a certain range."

"The black Volkswagen with license plate number Lin A25B71 parked at the intersection of Busy Road, too?"

"……etc."

"Xiao Gao, it's time to drive normally. Let's go back to Huajiang No. 1."

Xiao Gao, who had been driving as steady as a dog, kept the car very stable at the most tense moment, but at the moment when he was finally relieved, the front of the car shook.

"No...sorry Mr. Li."

"It's okay, just relax and drive well. If you can't do it, I'll do it."

"No need! No need..." Xiao Gao adjusted his breathing and the car gradually accelerated.

"It's ours too." Huang Guohui asked about the result. "They... also realized that you were tracking them, and they didn't know what to do for a moment."

"It's okay, as long as I know it's okay." Li Yan said, "Secretary Huang, is the protection only for me?"

"Your parents have, too."

"Add Wei Yili's family. Be careful not to use business struggle as an excuse."

"...Okay." Huang Guohui didn't say "already protected" in the end. He didn't want Li Yan to have an accurate judgment of the degree of danger.

"Especially Wei Yunzhi."

Huang Guohui couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"Don't worry, you will be safe for the next period of time."

This is the promise he can make to Li Yan.

When they arrived at Huajiang No. 1, Xiao Gao got off the car with Li Yan, which was rare.

"what happened?"

"I'll take you downstairs to your home."

"Worried about safety?"

Xiao Gao scratched his head, "I... I don't look like a bodyguard either. Mr. Li, you really need to hire a bodyguard."

"Yes, I have. Don't you know all the big brothers every time they go out?"

“But now there is none.”

Li Yan smiled and said, "Someone else arranged it for me."

"That's good, Mr. Li. Be careful."

Li Yan looked at Xiao Gao, who was worried, and suddenly took out her wallet from her pocket. Without counting, she grabbed a stack of red bills and said, "I don't have any red envelopes with me, so just take it. You can have a midnight snack with the big brother next to you, and buy the rest of the things you want."

"No, no, no, Mr. Li, that's not what I meant..."

Li Yan ignored him and walked straight to the black Audi parked behind the car.

Before he knocked on the car window, it rolled down by itself.

"Mr. Li." The man with a crew cut and a blue shirt inside said with a smile.

A face full of murderous intent still looks... eerie even when smiling.

"Brother, please follow the car back to the residence and spare some effort to ensure the safety of the people around me."

"Okay." The elder brother seemed a little curious about Li Yan's quick and decisive actions, and he couldn't help but ask a question first, "You greeted me, aren't you worried about being exposed?"

He had no doubt about Li Yan's ability to deal with and crack their "tracking" with the help of the Sky Eye so quickly. Even in the field he had been immersed in for many years, he would not have any confidence in front of Li Yan.

Therefore, there is no need to educate people about the fact that “greeting may lead to exposure.”

"If it comes to the point where someone is watching me in real time and ready to take action at any time, you won't just be following me like this."

Secretary Huang naturally couldn't say something like "it's definitely safe."

"Okay, please be safe."

Li Yan nodded, watched the two cars leave, waved to the Volkswagen on the other side, and then walked into Huajiang No. 1 Community.

Obviously, there was one more security guard, and he was wearing a different walkie-talkie from the one used by the community security guards.

Apparently, there was a male receptionist at the front desk, and his shirt couldn't cover up his muscular body at all.

It was obvious that the young cleaning lady in the lobby of the floor had very amateurish cleaning movements with her hands, but her thigh muscles were quite prominent.

These things are very conspicuous to Li Yan, and he can even instantly judge whether there is hostility from the way these people observe him.

Of course...the core basis of Li Yan's judgment is still Secretary Huang's words "it is definitely safe".

If there really is any hidden hostility, Li Yan is confident enough to react. Unless it is a sniper rifle, it would be extremely difficult to successfully kill Li Yan.

Apart from anything else, for Li Yan now, this "killer move" of stabbing someone with a knife in the bushes is basically equivalent to giving away a head.

Poisoning might be a good way... Damn, am I going to live like a secret agent from now on?
This doubt made Li Yan sit on the sofa in a daze for a long time when she returned home before she got up and prepared to take a shower.

After a rational analysis, I still feel at ease overall.

Pulling out a sniper rifle in China is hellishly difficult. Li Yan asked himself that even with his achievements in photolithography machines, he shouldn't be able to alert anyone to pull out this thing...

And judging from today's protection work, to put it in a bad way, of course, someone really wanted to use underhand tactics to threaten Li Yan's life safety; to put it in a good way, it also proves that the current level of attempts is not high, otherwise the authorities would have wrapped him up tightly long ago.

The difficulty of taking action when Li Yan and the authorities are not yet sufficiently alert and the difficulty of finding an opportunity after they have taken sufficient precautions are completely on a different level.

Even if on-site protection is implemented, other scientific and technological forces will inevitably be involved. Let alone implementation, the risks of gathering to discuss it are extremely huge, and the whole thing could be ruined in minutes.

Li Yan wanted to ask Huang Guohui what happened, but Secretary Huang did not take the initiative to explain, so even if she asked, she would probably just say something for show.

As long as the authorities have taken this into consideration, there is no need to dig deeper.

Huajiang No. 1 is one of the three houses that Wei Yili gave to Li Yan, a 300-square-meter flat overlooking the river.

In fact, Li Yan hardly ever "lives at home". He spends most of his time in the office.

After all, that place is called an office, but in fact it is a completely customized happy cabin.

Not small either...

You can get whatever you want, and you have a high degree of freedom. The study materials of Huazhong University of Science and Technology are all piled up, and it also has the emotional blessing after living there for a long time. The key is that there are people and the atmosphere of fireworks.

With so many Future Technology businesses, it is inevitable that some departments will work at night. Li Yan and the leaders of these departments have become accustomed to chatting about work late at night.

Occasionally, when Li Yan doesn’t want to stay in the office, she will go to her parents’ house to have dinner and rest.

If the Future Building was not located in Baijiang New City, Li Yan probably would not have thought of living in Huajiang No. 1.

Three hundred square meters is not considered a mansion for someone of his wealth, but with only one person living in it, it still seems a bit empty, so empty that it feels a bit lonely.

"It's rare to experience this kind of emotion." Li Yan said to herself while standing by the floor-to-ceiling window after taking a shower.

He suddenly remembered Wei Yunzhi's excited speech in this house.

Maybe it would be fun to live with Wei Yunzhi?

As soon as this thought came up, Li Yan laughed.

He shook his head and opened the refrigerator, scanning the food inside to see how he could combine it into a delicious midnight snack.

Finally, his eyes stopped on a few bottles of wine.

He didn't really not drink because he was underage. He drank quite a bit of beer in high school in his previous life.

He just hated the state of being drunk, thinking it was a loss of control and very ugly.

At the same time, I hate the drinking culture that comes with too many extras.

Being a little tipsy is acceptable.

He remembered that these bottles of stuff were given to him by a wealthy businessman from Hong Kong Island at a gathering of real estate bosses after the launch of the Future Building project.

Wei Yili wanted to help Li Yan refuse at that time, but Li Yan accepted it on her own initiative, which was rare after she found out that it was the 82 Lafite.

The average price of these bottles is 6, which is a price that Li Yan and big brother Hong Dao cannot afford to worry about.

This wealthy businessman is also a wine collector, and the things he took out are not collectible items.

Neither was given as a gift, and neither was received as a gift. It was almost like a physical greeting.

Li Yan was happy to accept it, mainly because she felt a strange sense of time and space interweaving.

The 82 Lafite was a joke he also liked to use in his previous life. During dinner parties, he liked to say "82 Coke, cheers up."

I haven't really tasted it.

"Try it."

He felt a little emotional. If he didn't have an 8% intelligence and an extremely lofty goal, and if he didn't have time anxiety following him like a shadow, with the wealth he had now, the temptation of a life of luxury would be incredibly strong.

Think about the beauties in all kinds of poses in the private messages on various social media accounts, and the innocent goddesses with hundreds of thousands of fans on Weibo. They all feel that they are not qualified to send Li Yan things that are not suitable for children. They have to work hard to get a million fans, maybe only then they have a chance to be seen by him in the vast private messages. Li Yan originally had an assistant team responsible for the operation of the social media accounts. Since private messages that even goddesses with millions of fans cannot write began to appear in his private messages, he can only take care of it himself.

If it were given to anyone else, there's no guarantee that when the gossip gets leaked, the impact would be quite huge.

However, Li Yan himself doesn’t really watch it. He even wrote an intelligent algorithm to filter it.

Only review when necessary.

Li Yan suddenly thought of Wei Yunzhi's appearance again. His hormones were overflowing tonight, and he could only vent them through cooking.

A plate of stir-fried beef ribs with scallions and ginger is ready - he originally wanted to learn how to make a steak, but for Li Yan, who has a very high skill value, steak is something that is not very realistic to cook, so he changed to something that requires more skills.

Li Yan had drunk wine in her previous life, but the taste of wine was not something worth remembering across lifetimes.

So he didn't understand at all what was so great about the 82 Lafite.

He even went straight to the front desk to help him buy a bottle of red wine for 1,800 yuan and went upstairs to compare them on the spot.

I still don’t understand the taste, or I can feel the difference but I don’t know what is “good”.

Li Yan laughed in silence. After all, he just didn't like it. Even if something he didn't like was top-notch, or had some wonderful emotional blessing, it would still be difficult to get happiness from it.

As the saying goes, money can’t buy happiness.

He drank another glass of wine.

This inexplicable emotion tonight... Li Yan took a deep breath and exhaled, and finally smelled the aroma of grapes.

Unexpectedly, what slowed him down was "danger".

The temptation to enter the world did not attract Li Yan at all, but the reflection on life brought by danger made him realize the meaning of entering the world.

I guess he was a little tipsy.

That night, Li Yan had a very good sleep.

In the month that followed, officials quickly pushed forward some changes.

For example, Li Yan has a prominent yet not-so-prominent identity—Vice Chairman of the Linjiang Federation of Industry and Commerce, and also a member of the National Entrepreneurs Association.

The Linjiang Federation of Industry and Commerce has a very high positioning. It is already very remarkable that Li Yan can directly become a nominal vice chairman at the age of 18 when he just became an adult.

Being a member of the National Entrepreneurs Association may not sound that impressive, but if it weren't for the official push, Li Yan wouldn't be able to bypass all the rules and regulations and get the green light to get in.

But it’s really amazing... Li Yan’s current actual status is much higher than these two titles.

His being the vice chairman of the Linjiang Federation of Industry and Commerce is purely a way of flattering the Linjiang Federation of Industry and Commerce. The same goes for being a member.

If Li Yan really wants to go this route, then he should have more powerful options.

If he didn't want to leave, why would he need these two titles that people might not even pronounce when introducing him?

Speaking of strengthening official ties, what could be closer than calling Huang Guohui directly?
So his move left many media outlets confused.

It was not until various official media received the notice that "interview information involving Li Yan must be reported to the higher authorities" that people gradually came to their senses.

Of course, Li Yan is just a figurehead, he will not really participate in the affairs of these associations and federations.

But he now has a legitimate official identity, which sends out two key signals to the outside world: first, touching him means touching the official, so everyone should think twice; second, it strengthens the cooperative relationship between Li Yan and the official, weakening the role of Li Yan himself in various achievements.

In the final analysis, it is also a kind of protection.

Huazhong University of Science and Technology has gradually become the main force in the promotion of lithography machines. In the field of drones, Star Technology has also appeared more frequently. In terms of publicity, it is mainly completing some confidence-boosting tasks without saying much practical content.

They may even deliberately mislead people so that the publicity progress gradually lags behind the research and development progress.

These things are all handled by the official authorities, so Li Yan doesn't need to worry about them.

There was even a rumor among the public that "future technology will be taken over by the government."

It doesn’t matter what people say outside, the official respect for Li Yan is increasing.

The employees of Future Technology are a little confused. Sometimes they feel indignant that the godlike Mr. Li was robbed of his role by the official, and even begin to believe that Li Yan was manipulated by the official. But when they see the high-level official bosses coming to inspect, they all respect and love Li Yan very much...

How did respect and favor come together?
Especially when taking photos, Li Yan always stood in the middle, chatting and laughing, with the leaders surrounding her and smiling apologetically.

It's so fucking weird.

Only the ministers roughly knew that all of this was for "protection", but they were not clear about the details.

Li Yan is happy with this. The things he has to do are getting bigger and bigger. With the government standing in front to protect him from the wind and rain, and to give him shelter and support, he is responsible for doing what he has to do. It is worry-free and safe, how great.

It's just that some old acquaintances like to make fun of his title of "Vice Chairman of Linjiang Federation of Industry and Commerce", which makes him feel helpless.

For example, Cai Zhendong started shouting as he walked towards the gate of Linda University:

"Oh, Vice Chairman Li is here to greet me personally. I have to jog!"

Li Yan's hair was disheveled in the wind, and Xu Ning next to her was laughing so hard that her eyes were invisible.

On December 12, the BGI delegation came to Linjiang University, preparing to exchange views with Comrade Li Yan, President of Future Technology, on the joint construction of a biomedical research center by the two universities and one enterprise.
