Rebirth 07: Start adding points from elementary school students

Chapter 559 The storm is coming
Wei Yunzhi put the meat jelly down directly, "Really? My parents are not here..."

"If they were here, maybe people wouldn't come."

Li Yan remained alert the moment the door opened, but the two strange middle-aged men were very good and showed several documents in succession. They only entered the house after obtaining the consent of Li Yan and the deputy captain of security.

The two middle-aged men didn't look like researchers at all. One was big and strong, and the other was square and upright. They looked very steady.

He is so tall and looks quite intimidating that even a down jacket and jeans cannot overpower him.

The shorter ones all have square faces, and look more like experienced gangsters. Their expressions are very friendly when they enter the room, but Li Yan can tell as soon as they speak that it's all fake.

He is the kind of person who can make his subordinates piss and piss themselves in fear just by glaring at them.

"Excuse me for your sudden visit, Li Yan." The short man said in a deep voice, "Let me introduce myself. I am Gong Zheng, the vice president of the Huaxia Military Industry Research Institute, and this is the chief engineer Jian Fujun."

...Li Yan glanced at the two of them.

Vice president? Chief engineer? Military research institute? …

I believe you.

Although one cannot judge a book by its cover...at first glance, these two seem to have nothing to do with researchers.

Sure enough, before Li Yan was introduced and anything else could be said, Huang Guohui called.

"Li Yan, is there someone claiming to be from the Military Research Institute looking for you?"

"Yes, fraud?"

"What kind of scam is this? I'm calling to let you know. Don't doubt their identities. They are representatives of the military."

"understood."

If they change their clothes, their epaulettes will probably be blindingly bright.

That is the real job, and my current identity is just a temporary one.

Li Yan continued the call. Neither of them said anything, and they looked confident.

"Director Gong, Engineer Jian, hello." After Li Yan finished speaking, he prepared to make tea, but Wei Yunzhi stopped his hand and took out the tea leaves himself.

"Is this Xiao Wei?" Gong Zheng asked with a smile.

"Yes." Li Yan answered first.

"It's better to stay away from it." Gong Zheng still smiled.

Wei Yunzhi stood up immediately and said, "That's right, I'm going to sleep then."

After saying that, he left in a cool manner.

"Li Yan..."

"Then let's not make tea today. Do you two mind?" Li Yan's response was so sudden that even Gong Zheng couldn't control his expression for a moment.

There was a deputy security captain standing at the door, and a girlfriend was isolated in the room. They both looked pretty impressive.

"You two, please tell me why you're here. My parents are not here, and outsiders are quarantined. We also need Huang Guohui to greet us. I'm afraid we don't have much time to chat."

Director Gong and Engineer Jian looked at each other and said, "Then Fu Jun, you go ahead and speak."

Jian Fujun also said straightforwardly, "Li Yan, China's military research needs talents like you. We believe that you can contribute a lot to the research of military equipment, so we specially invite you to join the institute to carry out the research and development of secret projects together."

Li Yan shrugged her eyebrows. "It's consistent with what I guessed about your intentions."

"Because the project we are working on is highly confidential, we will impose certain restrictions on your personal freedom after you join. You will temporarily be separated from your family and friends, and you are not allowed to operate Future Technology. Of course, we will ensure your safety during this process..."

"crazy?"

Li Yan's calm question caused the two of them to change their expressions wildly.

"What do you mean?" Gong Zheng put away his smiling expression.

"I was going to ask you what you meant." Li Yan leaned back on the sofa. "You are the ones who need my abilities, not me begging to join you. I understand that the project is confidential, but you just assumed that I agreed and directly proposed restrictions. Jian Gong, do you know how funny the sentence 'you are not allowed to operate Future Technology anymore' is?"

"Of course I'm not asking you to give up Future Technology or sell it. You are still the boss of Future Technology. It's just that for the sake of confidentiality, you have to temporarily leave the business content during this period of time." Jian Fujun responded.

"I am worried about you."

"That's not what I meant, Li Yan, this is the rule!" Gong Zheng said seriously.

"Have you never made any contingency plans in case I don't agree to join?" Li Yan frowned tightly.

"..." Both of them were silent.

That's true. They have always felt that it is impossible to refuse someone like Li Yan who is willing to break through the shackles of Chinese technology and has enough patriotic sentiments.

After all, researching secret military projects is something that many people dream of!

We came to you on our own initiative, how could you not want to join?

However, Li Yan was too strong, so Gong Zheng made a contingency plan on the spot.

"Li Yan, you are special, so we can discuss the conditions..."

"Whose idea was it that you two came here this time?" Li Yan asked directly.

"Of course it's the Military Research Institute's intention."

"Since we have already spoken out, there is no need to hide it. Otherwise, I would have asked Yunzhi to come out for tea."

Asking Wei Yunzhi to come out for tea basically means that he is not prepared to have a serious talk.

"We sincerely hope that you can exert your abilities and create conditions for China's military industry to lead the world. This is our assessment of you, and it is a very high evaluation."

"Maybe I can," Li Yan said, "but not now. Let's wait a little longer. Right now, I don't have this content in my personal rhythm."

He has invested a year in the research and development of a special medicine. Regardless of whether he has support or not, he must strike while the iron is hot and develop a truly universal special medicine.

And he must seize the time to push his abilities to 100% of their peak. Only then will he know where his ceiling is and what he can achieve.

Now he is devoting himself to unlimited military research, not to mention restrictions on his freedom. How could Mr. Li possibly make this his life pursuit?
"Wait?" Who knew that Dean Gong was actually anxious, "We can't wait. The sooner the new technology comes out, the more we can seize the opportunity to complete the monopoly. Li Yan, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity..."

"That's your consideration."

Li Yan interrupted Gong Zheng's speech directly and her voice was quite loud.

Both of them were stunned.

"You have your considerations, and I have mine. Director Gong, Engineer Jiang, you can come directly to my house, you can find my parents to come when they are visiting, and you can contact me through Huang Guohui. I don't believe you don't know why I am still in Lincheng today instead of going to the company."

Both remained silent.

"So, people are always like this, they say whatever they want. I'm only speaking for myself now, there's no need for you to hold me hostage with the interests of the country. It's weird, you tell me not to do something and I can't do it, you tell me to do something and I'll do it anyway? Aren't broad-spectrum cancer treatments and universal special medicines related to people's livelihood? Why don't you talk to me about the interests of the country now?"

"We didn't mean that at all..." Gong Zheng's expression eased a lot.

It seems to be true that if you are tough enough, others will be soft.

"So, please understand what I said again. According to my personal pace, it is not the right time yet. I will definitely be happy to make China's military power the world leader when I am capable of doing so. But I hope you will also put your attitudes in the right direction. It is you who need me, not me who needs you."

"Capable? What do you mean?" Jian Fujun asked, and even his voice was not as strong as it was at the beginning. They all realized a possibility: Li Yan would not participate.

That would be so damn embarrassing. How would I report it? How would others interpret it?

Don't let it cause another mess by then...

"You don't need to know about this. It's my own business." Li Yan said.

I can't possibly tell you that waiting for the system to be 100% and for new weapons to be created will be as easy as fiddling with a toy, right?

“Isn’t there a deadline?”

Li Yan felt that his patience was almost exhausted. He couldn't have a good chat with these two people:

“Why do I need to provide a deadline?”

Miraculously, Jian Fujun seemed to feel that his patience had almost run out. "Li Yan, this is a chance to be remembered forever. Just look at how our founding fathers conducted research in secret decades ago. The living environment you have today is entirely due to their hard work!"

"I have always been grateful to them. But my situation is different from theirs. Even if it is the same, it does not mean that I have to make the same choice." Li Yan's face was already very ugly. "I still say the same thing. You have your attitude, and I have mine. I believe in a community with a shared future for mankind."

"Innocent!"

"I am naive. I am too damn naive." Li Yan laughed. "You don't need to tempt me with immortality. With just a special medicine, I should have been immortalized. This is far from the limit of my ability. I will say it one last time. You need me, not me needing you. So please come to me with enough trust and sincerity."

"No, Li Yan..."

"Yunzhi, have you rested enough? Come out and see us off."

At this point, the talks have basically broken down and there is no need to continue.

Jian Fujun's face looked very unhappy, and he hadn't adjusted himself yet. Gong Zheng, on the other hand, was very impressive, and had already regained his smiling face. At first glance, it seemed that they had just completed a very ideal communication.

On the return plane, Jian Fujun still had a gloomy face, and even felt angry when he saw Gong Zheng's sad face.

"What's going on? This kid just refused to accept my toast and is now being punished! Why are you still looking so gloomy?"

"Shut up, Lao Liu. What the hell are you asking him to drink for punishment? We should drink for punishment now!"

"You've been taken advantage of by a little brat." "Jian Fujun" laughed, "Who told you to name yourself 'Gong Zheng'? I have to call you 'Lao Gong'? Disgusting, so fucking disgusting, Lao Li."

Gong Zheng closed his eyes and rested. "The boss thinks highly of him. This series of twists and turns is just to test this kid's character. Who doesn't have hot tempers when young? He may not understand and may be angry, but as long as he holds back and stays here, he is trustworthy. Judging from his previous performance, it is easy to offend Li Yan, but it is not difficult to appease him..."

"Is it really that magical?"

"Yes, it's too much. Old Liu, you have to trust me on this. You have no technical background at all, so you don't know how outrageous Li Yan is."

"I don't understand, but since the boss values ​​it so much, I still understand."

"The biggest headache now is, how should we report today's progress?"

"Tell the truth, what else do you want to say?"

Gong Zheng shook his head repeatedly, "You don't know how much the leader values ​​him, so you naturally don't know what I'm so nervous about."

Li Yan roughly explained the situation to Wei Yunzhi, and the little beauty frowned as she listened:
"Will this have any impact on your life?"

"No, I still say the same thing, let's see who is more anxious."

However, Wei Yunzhi still looked worried.

"They specifically mentioned that you should stop running Future Technology... Are you thinking of taking over? After all, a special medicine can be messed up like this. I'm very worried now..."

"You're thinking too much. The biggest significance of today's conversation is that they're here."

"Huh?" The little beauty didn't understand - in fact, she is now a "big beauty".

"Military industry." Li Yan vacuumed the sofa. "Do you think the military industry came to me for help not because of the leaders' intention? This shows that they know my value and how much help I can provide in the military industry."

"Eh? Really... is it okay?"

"Yes." Li Yan answered decisively, "Beyond your imagination - the premise is that China is willing to invest heavily. If they are willing, I can directly reverse the situation."

Wei Yunzhi was a little frightened after hearing this...

"Do you have an idea?"

"Yes, I have ideas, and I can roughly figure out how to implement them. I just need them to give me permission or provide me with the content I need for some data."

"Why do they still have this attitude?" Wei Yunzhi became angry.

"This... is purely because they are used to being straightforward in the army, and their values ​​are very firm. The big brother named 'Jian Fujun' probably thinks that giving me this opportunity is a blessing from heaven, and he also admires the heroes of the past from the bottom of his heart."

Wei Yunzhi remained silent.

"Don't worry. Do you know why I haven't come to the company yet and am giving it the cold shoulder?"

Wei Yunzhi shook his head.

"Because I didn't understand their attitude at first, I also wanted them to not understand mine. The only thing I knew for sure was that they would be more anxious than I was. So I treated them coldly. I couldn't figure it out, and they would rush to do something, exposing their true attitude."

"Uh... eh?"

"The fact that the military industry came to me basically shows that my judgment was correct. The only thing that needs to be clarified is whether they are currently more inclined to actively own me, or passively ensure that others cannot own me."

“……”Wei Yunzhi’s face changed.

"Don't worry, it's obvious that they chose the former." Li Yan said, "The release of public opinion is just a warning to me, and maybe even an opportunity to release information about people with ulterior motives. In the final analysis, it's a test for me. If there is still a need for a test, it means there are expectations. Today, two people from the military industry came to see me, and the security guards were always at the door. Huang Guohui also called me, which is very telling."

"Why do you want to do this?"

"It's very difficult to build trust between people." Li Yan spread his hands. "At this level, it's meaningless to talk about feelings. As long as I show my intention of 'disobeying', it will severely shake the fragile foundation of trust, and they need to eliminate risks in a way that they approve of."

Wei Yunzhi was stunned when he heard this.

"The more I express my dissatisfaction, the more I intensify their concerns. However, under such circumstances, I never considered joining the Lighthouse. Instead, I was able to put their concerns to rest and gain great trust." Li Yan smiled, "I am so angry at a young age, but I still can't let it go. I am unmoved by the messy public opinion and the information from foreign countries trying to win me over. I even accept their protection. Accepting protection means that I am still worried about the ill intentions of foreign forces... What does this mean?"

"Are you trustworthy?"

“It’s so worth it.”

"Yan, can I understand that it is the same for you over at the lighthouse?"

"Don't worry, if they want to do something, it's not as easy as those rival companies."

"Now I don't really trust those guards..."

Li Yan smiled, grabbed an apple from the coffee table, covered it with both hands and suddenly exerted force, but for a moment, Wei Yunzhi even thought he was just pretending.

But I saw that the apple had been broken into two halves, with very neat edges.

Wei Yunzhi was also a top student, so he knew very well how terrifying the power Li Yan had unleashed at that moment.

Even the surface of the apple was left with fingerprints.

"I am very strong now," Li Yan said, "but once we enter China, they don't have guns."
