Chapter 555 A sudden turn of events
"When you're in a bad mood... it's quite rare."

As soon as Li Yan returned to Huajiang No. 1, she was hugged by Wei Yunzhi.

"It's okay for others to say this, but you've seen me in a bad mood many times." Li Yan smiled and touched her head.

"It's different. You used to be angry only at yourself."

"It's not the first time I've had emotions because of someone else."

"Maybe it's a little different. Look, you didn't say you were angry because of someone else."

Li Yan looked at Wei Yunzhi's sparkling eyes, took several deep breaths, and finally turned them into a chuckle.

"You."

"I can sense your disappointment in others." Wei Yunzhi still held Li Yan in his arms. "Disappointment is a big blow to you and will directly affect your motivation."

"It's okay. I've always been a very self-centered person." Li Yan patted the little beauty's butt. "If there's resistance to working for others, I won't do it."

It was rare for Wei Yunzhi not to respond to Li Yan's "tease".

Of course she knew it was just a diversion.

“You do care.”

"Of course I care." Li Yan pulled the little beauty to sit on the sofa and stretched his body. "I do this for myself, and ultimately for humanity. I do this for humanity, and ultimately for myself. If we discuss the meaning of life too highly, it will be a waste of time. So, after living this life and having the ability to directly lead all of humanity into a new era, it is impossible for me not to care."

The little beauty had an expression of "and then what?"

"Don't worry," Li Yan smiled, "We are not the ones who should be anxious now."

"Then you're happy?"

"I'm happy when you're around."

Wei Yunzhi then happily took out his phone and said, "We agreed on the annual plan. I was so busy at the beginning of the year that I didn't dare to talk to you about it."

Li Yan smiled and spread out her hands, "It's okay, I'm free now."

"You'll have plenty of time to spare. Future technology alone will keep you busy enough."

Li Yan kept her hands open. "I haven't been involved much this year. Do you think there are any problems with future technology?"

"That's not true..."

“Actually, yes.”

Wei Yunzhi was speechless for a moment.

"Internal corruption is very serious." Li Yan shrugged. "They think I don't know, but I know it all. But it's impossible to expect a giant private enterprise to be pure and innocent. The management of a company of this level should not be controlled by me alone. I will first understand the situation, and then kill them when they are mature enough."

“But they don’t have any problems with their business.”

"In fact, companies of this level should not be managed long ago. If they don't start new projects, no one can turn the tables even if they rely on their old capital for ten years. Under highly monopolistic conditions, users are surprisingly tolerant of new products. In fact, with Sun Miao's ability, he can't manage such a large company at all, but he is now a symbol and has absolute influence on actual management. In summary, this aircraft carrier can't be turned over."

"Mr. Sun has absolute influence, what about you?"

"I'm already a legend."

"Well, Mr. Chuan Shuo, let's continue with the annual plan. First, let's share an annual number." Wei Yunzhi showed the screen of his mobile phone.

"137?"

"Yeah, guess what."

Even though Li Yan had such powerful abilities, he couldn't think of anything meaningful to match it.

"Really? I can't think of it."

"We did that last year."

...you little frivolous one!
"And this year, the number is still 0 for now?"

So I +1 it.

But at this moment, Li Yan could not have imagined that many things would change so quickly.

The intensity of his behavior in the special medicine incident exceeded the expectations of his leaders, and the intensity of the leaders' reaction to this incident also exceeded Li Yan's expectations.

At first, there was no report on Hou Xiaofeng's recovery. The teams that had come in large numbers to inspect suddenly disappeared, and no related content was released.

Li Yan could understand this, as he originally wanted to keep a low profile on this matter.

But soon, starting with He Xiaogang, all the heavyweight experts withdrew from the universal medicine research and development project. Even Wan Keming, who was originally very enthusiastic, gave up further clinical optimization of the broad-spectrum cancer eradication therapy.

However, the reasons were well prepared, and most of them were based on the reason that "the abilities are really not matched", which gave Li Yan enough face.

The real turning point occurred on January 1th.

This day is the day when the Future City unmanned vehicle system is officially opened to the public. According to the original plan, senior leaders will come and Li Yan will also be present. It is regarded as a milestone in China's unmanned vehicle field and should be an unprecedented event.

However, not only did the top leader not come, even Huang Guohui did not show up.

Such a significant event was attended by the leader of New Taipei City.

After learning about this, even the leadership of Future Technology felt a little uneasy, not to mention outside public opinion.

The more Wang Zi thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong, so she suggested on the spot that Li Yan should not show up as originally planned, and even Sun Miao should not show up, and she could just arrange for the manager of the company that was researching driverless cars to show up.

But Li Yan insisted on coming forward.

After the two leaders of New Taipei City learned that Li Yan was still going to come forward, they became very nervous and repeatedly called Huang Guohui to ask what to do.

Finally, Old Huang was forced to come out and shake hands with Li Yan with a smile.

But the official process was still extremely simple. Not to mention such a milestone event as matching Li Yan, they couldn’t even match Huang Guohui.

Only a small number of media came, and the event couldn't be more official, so they just shot a brief introduction and didn't even start the opening ceremony.

"Why do you still have to show up?" Huang Guohui frowned as soon as he left the camera and the crowd.

"Because this is very valuable." Li Yan said, "The entire area is completely operated by unmanned vehicles. It is not easy to establish this system. It has very high demonstration value. The detours we have taken in this project will also be important experience for the future operation system of unmanned vehicles."

Huang Guohui sighed, "I know, I know. But what can I do if the leaders don't take it seriously?"

Li Yan stood in the command hall and looked at the huge screen in front of him, saying, "The value of something is not determined by whether the leader attaches importance to it or not."

"Li Yan, look at this sentence dialectically. I don't believe you don't know its power."

"Of course I know. If you want to say that driverless cars are good, then they are the future and all risks should and can be taken. If you want to say that driverless cars are not good, then they are all risks that cannot be taken and should be locked away." Li Yan smiled. "This is not even at the level of leadership decision-making. It can be solved with a propaganda campaign."

"You obviously know everything."

"I'm afraid there won't be any major promotions today, right?" Li Yan asked.

"will not."

"Uncle Hui, a lot of the backbones of the special medicine team have evacuated."

“……”Huang Guohui did not respond.

"You don't think that the special medicine depends on them, do you?"

Huang Guohui's eyes widened involuntarily after hearing this.

Li Yan could feel that his image in Huang Guohui's eyes was changing dramatically.

"As long as I want, even if it's just me, it's only a matter of time before I can find a universal cure-all."

"Li Yan!"

"but."

Huang Guohui immediately shut up and listened to Li Yan finish speaking.

"I'm too lazy to do it." Li Yan shrugged. "This thing... To be honest, after knowing that I can really do it, I'm not very interested. If everyone welcomes it, then I'll change it for the time being. If someone doesn't welcome it, then there's no need for me to do it. If I have that time, I might as well study more advanced things. Like you said, I have to take a high position. I don't just consider China, I consider all mankind, okay?" "Li Yan, Li Yan, Li Yan," Huang Guohui obviously read some signal that made him panic from this sentence, "Well, let's sit down, I'll tell you something from the heart."

"please."

"Well, don't be anxious. What you just said actually makes sense. Some things have too big an impact once they are made, so you really need to think about it. It's not that we don't support you doing this, but we just don't support it now. We absolutely don't want you to misunderstand. We never mean to stand against you. You have to know that we are now very meticulous and very guaranteed in the security of you and your family. This is only possible in China, and we can still talk to you and mess with you like this. Why don't you try going abroad? If you take out this cheap special medicine today, you don't know how many guns will be pointed at you tomorrow..."

Huang Guohui spoke for more than ten minutes, and only stopped to get some water when his throat was exhausted.

"Oh, is this the reason why my reputation on the Internet has deteriorated?" Li Yan showed a trending search.

Huang Guohui squinted his eyes and saw clearly:

"Future Technology's drug development team was laid off."

It looked like a Spring and Autumn style of writing, but when you clicked into it, it was a bunch of messed up comments targeting Li Yan.

Some people said that Li Yan was blindly arrogant, some said that he was deceived, some said that the project was a joke, some said that drug development violated human ethics, some speculated that Li Yan had disappeared for so long because he had fled abroad, and some said that Li Yan was doing drug development just to gain fame...

Although it is not exaggerated, the number of comments below is quite large.

"As you know, the attacks on you have never stopped."

"But before that, my name could even be a sensitive word. For at least two full years, I didn't see a single negative comment on the front page of any website." Li Yan smiled and put away her phone. "Thank you for your efforts."

Huang Guohui looked very unhappy and was speechless for a long time.

"Don't worry, Uncle Hui. I know there are some things you can't decide." Li Yan said, "Future Technology has its own publicity department, and it's no pushover."

"So Li Yan, are you still developing that universal medicine?"

"R&D, but I know you have the ability to kill my idea of ​​'cheap price', so I'm not going to do it."

Huang Guohui's expression was much more positive. "That's right. Just set a higher price. We are not unwilling to let you do this project. In fact, we will support you."

"It's not expensive," Li Yan said with a smile, "it's priceless."

"Ok?"

"It's developed, so forget it. If I can't sell it cheaply, it will affect the existing medical system, so I'll just keep the existing system and I won't sell it."

Huang Guohui closed his eyes.

He really had no way to deal with Li Yan.

When saying goodbye to Li Yan, Huang Guohui said earnestly: "No matter how many ideas you have, we can talk about them. No matter what happens, don't think about leaving. I really do this for your own good."

From this day on, Li Yan felt the change very clearly.

Negative public opinions came in like a tide. Although nothing was particularly long-lasting or explosive, they were like flies flying around and could not be driven away.

There are all kinds of them, some sound serious but are completely bragging, some are just emotional outbursts and verbal slander.

The level is very high, and even the Future Science and Technology Publicity Department needs to be forced to step in. But as Li Yan and Wei Yunzhi said, "Once our own legal department takes action, we have already lost."

Although her level is very low, she was able to create a negative atmosphere and gradually change the public's impression of Li Yan.

The most difficult issue to deal with here is the issue of future technological products.

Just as Li Yan learned, there was serious corruption within Future Technology, and some of its products were bound to have varying quality as a result.

Because Future Technology has good enough after-sales service, the posts that previously reported product problems were insignificant. Now that the public opinion has changed, small problems have been fermented into big problems, which have a significant impact on the image of the entire brand.

What Li Yan could not have imagined was that there was a very strange "driving force" behind the reversal of public opinion.

It's the rebellious psychology.

Many people were not bought, did not receive any tasks, and did not even have any opinions or emotions about future technology.

But he joined in the empty criticism of Li Yan.

It's very simple. After staying in the context of saying Li Yan is awesome and Li Yan is good for too long, many people who want to express opposite opinions and show their presence are really frustrated. Occasionally, when they want to lead the trend, they are directly shut down by the website. They are very anxious.

Isn't this the chance to be caught?
But even so, Li Yan did not have any emotional fluctuations about these things.

What he was thinking was - "Why did it come to this?"

January 2017, 1, the eve of New Year’s Eve.

Wang Zi stood in Li Yan's office with a sad face.

"Sister Wang, I've already reported my work, why are you still so sad?"

"...Mr. Li, is the recent trend not right?"

"Has it affected the company internally?"

"..."

Li Yan smiled and said, "It's okay, don't worry about it."

"Recently... I often see a few suspicious people downstairs of the company. They keep walking around in a few places. Are they sitting and recording? I asked the security to help observe it. It seems that they are recording the entry and exit times of the senior management."

Li Yan's eyes were stern, "Including me?"

"You always go directly through the garage, but the security guards at the garage said there are a few suspicious people lingering near the garage."

"This kind of record has no practical significance for doing anything bad." Li Yan said, "They want to be poisonous flies, so that you can see them and worry about them. It's a despicable method."

"Do I need to call the police?"

"It's useless. They didn't do anything really bad."

"Then strengthen security? Set up an area where outsiders are not allowed to enter?"

"As long as there is an entrance, they can record you at the entrance, and you still have to worry." Li Yan shook his head, "Or their goal has been achieved. Find a way to explore."

"Ok."

"Don't worry."

In the past half month, Wei Yunzhi and Li Yan's parents have been under a lot of unnecessary pressure and negative emotions because of the messy negative public opinion on the Internet, and now this has happened again.

Li Yan himself may not care much, but if the people related to him are suffering from bad emotions that they shouldn't have to endure, he must care.

But things are quite complicated, and even he finds it difficult to judge the composition of these people who act as flies.

Was he acting to prove that "our security is valuable"? Or was it the medical system that he had put on the opposite side that was exerting its strength? Or was it that the rival companies that he had beaten up had sensed the wind and were out for revenge?
Thinking of this, Li Yan suddenly had the answer to the question "Why is it so?"

It is precisely because everyone knows how capable he is that they cannot accept any "rebellion" from him.

Allowing public opinion to ferment is definitely not a simple decision like "you made me angry so I want to retaliate against you."

The current operations are most likely intended to make Li Yan feel the pressure, to make him understand that there is no benefit in standing on the opposite side, and also to further test him.

If, faced with such pressure, Li Yan really chooses to officially stand on the opposite side, I am afraid that what he will encounter will be much more dangerous than what he has been blocked from doing now.

It is important to bring out the value of Li Yan, but nothing is more important than preventing Li Yan from bringing out her value in other places.

Having you is important to me; but it is more important for others not to have you.

Just imagine, if a person who can make lithography machines and cancer can be made with just one word, invests three to five years in military industry, what can he create?
If that is indeed the case... Li Yan couldn't help but sneer, "Then let's see who is more anxious."

Wei Yunzhi's call interrupted his thoughts:

"Yan, are you on your way back?"

"I was just thinking about something... I haven't left the office yet."

"Okay, come back soon, my parents and I are very worried."

"It's okay. Yunzhi, tell your parents to go back to Lincheng for the New Year this year."
