I'm the Demon King in Marvel

Chapter 600: The reaction of the tool man's descendants
"The 'Spark' laboratory on the Yuanchu star?"

Lin Chengdong returned to the president's office and was confused as soon as he answered the phone.

Does Lin own this laboratory?
"Mr. Liu, don't worry. I will check myself right away and get back to you within an hour... no, within half an hour."

The person who called Lin Chengdong was none other than the eldest son of the Liu family from thirty years ago. He was already in his sixties and naturally no longer the "eldest son", but he had not become the master of the Liu family either.

When Young Master Liu first entered politics, he suffered a setback in the county town and fell into the trap of his opponents. Although the Liu family stepped in and the two sides mediated, Young Master Liu successfully landed, but it still left an inglorious mark on his resume.

If it were an ordinary person, it wouldn't have much of an impact, but as the Liu family is a top noble family, the head of the family must be a master, otherwise they wouldn't be able to support such a large family business, and it would inevitably make the surrounding wealthy people suspicious.

If people's hearts are unstable, how can they establish their own mountain and hoist their own flag?
Young Master Liu, who had a blemish on his resume, was doomed to fail to make it to this level after passing through the huge battle array of thousands of troops. He was not the kind of person with extraordinary talent or strong personal charm who could erase the blemish through his own efforts later on.

Therefore, the Liu family decisively changed the training target and concentrated resources on Young Master Liu's younger brother.

With his career in government over, Mr. Liu had no choice but to turn to the business world.

To be honest, Young Master Liu's business talent is not that great. He simply relies on the power of the Liu family to bully others. If he were replaced by a more capable trader, he could make 100 yuan with 100 yuan. However, Young Master Liu can only rely on his family's power to barely make a profit of 100 yuan with 10,000 yuan.

Of course, it is enough to achieve stable growth in family wealth. What wealthy families seek is stability.

Objectively speaking, if you have not received an orthodox and professional education, and don't have some intrigue skills, you won't be able to handle such a big business, and you will definitely be fooled by your subordinates!

So Mr. Liu can actually shout out loud: I have achieved what I have today because of my own efforts!
If you want Young Master Liu to discover new business opportunities and create new markets, that might be a bit too much to ask, but if you want him to keep an eye on other families trying to follow suit and get a piece of the pie, he's very good at that.

Look, the news just came out from Yuanchu Star, Young Master Liu... no, now Mr. Liu got the news immediately.

After much inquiry, it was discovered that the laboratory that the second son of the Tang family had gone to great lengths to seal off was actually related to the Lin Group, one of their own white gloves. Mr. Liu immediately called to inquire.

"Xiao Wang, go call Director Shen over." Lin Chengdong put down the phone and immediately got busy, and told his secretary: "Wait, call Director Liu over as well."

"Brother, what's wrong?" Lin Chengliang asked from the side.

"Mr. Liu asked if our company has a biological laboratory called 'Spark'. He sounded very anxious." Since he called his cousin over, Lin Chengdong naturally did not intend to hide it from him.

"Alas, it's the Liu family again..."

Lin Chengliang is a young man, and of course he doesn't want his family to be treated like dogs by the Liu family all the time, but he is not a child who is ignorant of the world, and at most he will complain a few words at home.

"Don't say such meaningless words in the future!" Lin Chengdong warned earnestly.

"I know we can't afford to offend the Liu family."

A moment later, the financial director and administrative director came into the conference room together.

"Check if we have a laboratory called 'Spark' on Yuanchu Star. Be quick. I'll only give you fifteen minutes. The call will be made right here."

The two executives had no idea what was going on, nor did they need to know. After receiving the order, they immediately took action, some looking up information and some making phone calls.

After a moment, the administrative director responded first: "This laboratory does not exist in the group sequence, nor does it appear in upstream and downstream suppliers and affiliated companies."

It is very quick to search here. He can get the answer after entering the keywords into the system.

Lin Chengdong frowned and said, "Check it carefully again. Check the financial records over the years to see if there is any money flow."

If it were still the era of paper office, even in the semi-information era of the first twenty years of this century, it would inevitably take a lot of time to check such detailed things. However, now that the earth civilization has entered the era of artificial intelligence, even ordinary companies will purchase basic artificial intelligence systems to assist in office work.

Unable to find it in the sequence of his own group, he had to use big data to look for it in the database accumulated by the Lin Group over decades. After a few minutes, he finally got the result.

"President, we found it!" The financial director projected the image onto the screen.

"This laboratory was established more than 40 years ago. The person in charge is Mr. Lin. The funds are transferred from an independent foundation established by Mr. Lin. The annual funds are not included in the group's account book..."

"Grandpa's lab?" X2
The two brothers Lin Chengdong and Lin Chengliang looked at each other. The former thought for a moment and gave the order.

"Give me all the information you can find in this laboratory. Today's meeting will be rescheduled. You guys go back first."

The two executives didn't understand what he meant, so they had to put down their things and leave.

Seeing his cousin quickly looking through the information, and remembering his promise to the Liu family, Lin Chengliang quickly said, "Since it involves grandpa, we should discuss it with the family first."

"I know, but that old guy named Liu has a bad temper and we can't go against him." After saying that, Lin Chengdong immediately called Mr. Liu.

"Mr. Liu, I found it. I'll send you the information right away." So Lin Chengdong sent the information over, and it took less than twenty minutes in total.

Lin Chengliang on the side couldn't help but frown.

"I've read the information, and there's only one-sided funding output. I don't know what topics this lab is researching, and I haven't seen them report any results to the group."

Lin Chengdong took this opportunity to pass on his experience to his cousin.

"Deception and concealment are the stupidest means to deal with an arrogant young master like Liu. Once discovered, he will bear a grudge against you. He will not wait until the next day to take revenge."

"But you can use the truth to perfunctorily deal with him and show your attitude towards work. Even if the result does not meet his expectations, he will not just abandon you."

"Although the old man surnamed Liu has been arrogant since he was young, he has at least been doing things for so many years and knows the truth that 'not every dog ​​can catch rabbits, but every dog ​​has its own value'. He will not get rid of you just because you fail to exceed the task."

"So in the future, when you deal with this kind of noble children, you should show your attitude first. Even if things don't go as planned, our Lin family is not something they can destroy effortlessly."

"..." Lin Chengliang was silent for a long time. For the first time, he understood the frustration his cousin felt when facing the sons of nobles.

"Okay, go home in the evening and call my dad, uncle, and aunt." Lin Chengdong walked over and patted his cousin on the shoulder to boost his depressed mood.

"The old man surnamed Liu actually said this personally. This is probably not a small matter. Moreover, it involves Grandpa. I don't think our Lin family can escape this."

After the two brothers returned, they immediately reported the situation to their three elders at the dinner table.

Lin Yi, Lin Er and Lin Shan are not much different in age. The latter two are twins and are all in their eighties.

The three were slightly surprised to hear that the matter was related to their beloved father.

"Show us the information about this laboratory."

Lin Chengdong immediately displayed the copied information.

"Dad did decide to let the group get involved in the field of biotechnology, and he also invested money to build several biological laboratories, but they were basically located on Earth..."

Lin Yi, who once headed the group, fell into memories.

"He deliberately placed this laboratory on an alien planet and provided an independent funding channel. Could it be that Dad is secretly conducting some mysterious experiment?"

"I've never heard that my dad has made achievements in the field of biology!" Lin Er stroked his carefully maintained white beard, looking puzzled.

They all knew that their fathers had made many inventions in the field of electronic engineering, and that the Lin Group had accumulated capital relying on the wisdom of their father, which enabled it to enter other industries.

However, they have never seen Lin Hao's abilities in the field of biotechnology, even though the three of them were humans created by Lin Hao using biotechnology.

"Why are the people from the Liu family suddenly asking about this laboratory?" Lin Shan also contributed her wisdom.

This is the habit that the three siblings have developed since they were young, and it is also the result of Lin Hao's training.

Although they were just Director Lin's tools, Director Lin still spent a lot of time and effort to train them, even making Yuanshi Tianzun mistakenly believe that these three siblings were Lin Hao's main players.

"That dandy boy is the type who won't do anything unless it's profitable. Could it be that this laboratory has really produced something good?"

"Don't think about it. Send someone to Yuanchu Star to check the accounts openly!" Lin Yi made the decision.

No matter what the Liu family is planning, this laboratory belongs to the Lin Group. According to the law, all research results in the laboratory are patented by the Lin Group.

Although the nobles and wealthy families are becoming more and more unscrupulous, they have not yet reached the point of raising the flag of rebellion. The Lin Group is not a small role that can be sent away by just a word from them. Even if there is a commotion, the Lin Group can still get a share of the profits.

What's more, the three siblings have developed an admiration for their father since they were young. Since this laboratory was built by their father, it must be something extraordinary.

So, Lin Chengliang volunteered to go to Yuanchu Star, wanting to see what was so attractive about this laboratory that the Liu family coveted.

The Liu family didn't discover Lin's actions until five days later. The news came back from Yuanchu Star, but Mr. Liu was not angry, because he also wanted to know what the second young master of the Tang family was planning. So instead of blaming him, he immediately contacted Lin Chengdong and expressed his willingness to seek justice for the Lin family.

Lin Chengdong thought about it and agreed, because the news his cousin brought back from Yuanchu Star was not good. The second young master of the Tang family had actually sent a large number of security personnel to seal off the laboratory. Lin Chengliang had been there for two or three days and couldn't even get into the laboratory.

Faced with the Tang family, which is also a top noble family, the Lin Group can only rely on the power of the Liu family to get back its own property.

However, these wealthy families could not have imagined that what they were plotting had fallen into the hands of an ordinary, unrelated person.
