Hexagonal God

Chapter 442 Forgot to turn off the live camera

The atmosphere in the live broadcast room was originally a bit solemn, but it became boiling because of Su Mo's rhetorical question.

"Yes, all the money for research and development was paid by Su Shen himself. What does this have to do with wasting money and labor?"

"Haha! Talking about money with Su Shen, you old man probably don't know how rich our Su Shen is."

"It seems the old man has never looked at the Forbes rankings. Su Shen has 80 billion in assets. How could he be short of money?"

"Su Shen is short of money? This is the funniest joke I've heard this year."

"It's pretty impressive to be so nosy, but how come you can't even apologize?"

At this moment, Yang Guangming felt how powerful Su Mo was.

No, it cannot be said that Su Mo is great, but rather that everyone in this live broadcast room is so partial to Su Mo.

Isn't it just a compliment to myself? Look how excited these onlookers are. I just had such a wonderful performance, why is no one praising me?

Yang Guangming was a little overwhelmed by the squeeze, his face flushed, and he said, "Your own money? Do you know how much it costs? I know you have some dirty money, but this is not a small amount. It's not something you can achieve with just one or two small goals. Don't be so arrogant."

In his opinion, Su Mo was indeed quite rich, but who could have so much idle funds?
If you ask the wealthy people in China to take out tens of billions of yuan, they basically cannot do so. Their money is in the form of stocks, which are the least reliable and can evaporate at any time.

Unexpectedly, just as he opened his mouth, Su Mo interrupted him.

"Is 10 billion enough?"

"One hundred billion?"

Yang Guangming was choked by this huge number. Investing 10 billion in a project research and development, he couldn't say whether it would be successful or not, but it would be enough in the early stage, at least enough for a few years.

But he still didn't quite believe that Su Mo could easily take out 10 billion.

At this time, Su Mo took out a few pieces of paper and showed them to the live camera.

“This is my factory construction plan.”

"This is my letter of intent to invest in Shanghai. I've already contacted the city government."

"This is a recruiting ad, ready for radio broadcast."

"This is my construction team. We'll be heading to Shanghai after the Spring Festival."

"This is my bank card. I won't show you the balance. Anyway, my 10 billion is ready. Professor Yang, do you have any questions?"

With 10 billion to cover his face, who else can do it?

Yang Guangming stared at Su Mo with a red face and thick neck, breathing heavily.

Vulgar! Vulgar!
This method of spending money is the least technically demanding, but also the most infuriating.

Anyway, I have money and I can spend it however I want. Who can do anything to me?

However, it is impossible to make Yang Guangming admit defeat like this.

He glared at Su Mo. "Su Mo, as your elder, I have to advise you that passion alone won't get you anywhere. Liquid batteries haven't even been fully researched in China, and you're thinking of taking it all in one leap? Is it just because you have money? Do you have the solid-state battery technology? Would anyone dare to ride in the car you developed?"

Su Mo smiled slightly. "Professor Yang, since you are in charge of research and development, you will naturally test it. If my product doesn't meet the quality standards, I will not release it to the market. I would rather waste 10 billion yuan than let cars with quality problems become potential health hazards for the people. You don't have to worry about this."

"Alright, alright! Since you're so stubborn, I won't waste any more time talking to you. I'll just sit and wait for your car to be released. But I have to remind you that domestically produced cars are already in terrible condition. You'd better not make things worse, and don't become a sinner for the nation!"

Yang Guangming was greatly irritated, and his tone was harsh when he spoke to Su Mo.

"Will I become a sinner of the nation?"

Su Mo's expression also turned serious: "Some people may not understand some things, but someone has to do it.

Because Galileo supported the heliocentric theory, he was misunderstood and persecuted by the Catholic Church and was imprisoned for many years.

Morris's research in anatomy proved that women also have sexual pleasure, but was misunderstood by the church and society as blasphemy, and his life was threatened.

Darwin proposed the theory of evolution, which was misunderstood and attacked by the Christian Church, and his theory was denied for a long time.

Liang Qichao was suppressed and persecuted by the Qing government because he advocated political reforms and new ideas.

Gandhi, the leader of the Indian independence movement, was arrested and imprisoned many times by the British colonial government.

But can you say these people are wrong? Someone has to do the work, and it's not advisable to throw the baby out with the bathwater. You just said that, Professor Yang. Why? Why did you change your attitude so quickly?

Yang Guangming was stumped by Su Mo's series of examples and rhetorical questions, and suddenly became angry and embarrassed.

"Su Mo, don't argue with me here. Talking is useless. Academic matters cannot be faked. I don't believe you can come up with anything."

Su Mo showed a meaningful smile: "Speaking of this, there is something I want to confirm with you."

"I guess there's nothing more to say between us."

"No, you have to say this."

Su Mo didn't give Yang Guangming time to respond and asked directly: "You just said that your course on lithium batteries started two months ago, which is before the school winter vacation. Am I right?" "Yes, so what?"

"That's good. You said domestic cars are rubbish again. I have some information here."

As he spoke, Su Mo took out a piece of printed paper from the table.

"It was at the end of this year, about two weeks ago, that Hyundai Motor Company in South Korea announced a major breakthrough in lithium battery research. A prototype car will be unveiled at the auto show next month. Professor Yang, are you aware of this?"

Yang Guangming's expression changed slightly, and then he pretended to be nonchalant and said, "I know. I'm a professor in this industry, so of course I pay attention to industry trends. They have good technology and have developed a new car, so we should congratulate them."

"Oh, you know they're good at it?"

Professor Yang snorted. "That's right. South Korea's automobile manufacturing industry is already quite developed, and Hyundai Motor ranks among the top 500 companies in the world. It's no wonder they've developed a new car. I suggest that if you want to buy an electric car, consider Hyundai."

When saying this, Yang Guangming couldn't help but give himself a thumbs up.

It's your platform, Su Mo. So what if you have a lot of fans? I just took advantage of it to advertise.

With over 200 million people watching this kind of live broadcast, the advertising effect is definitely more powerful than CCTV's prime time. If Hyundai electric vehicles sell well in China, I will have made a huge contribution.

When the stock price goes up, your own profits will also rise and you will make a lot of money.

Before he could finish feeling proud, Su Mo's face darkened.

"It seems Professor Yang knows a lot about modern electric cars. Didn't you help develop this one?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm Chinese. How could I possibly help South Korea develop cars?"

"Really? Then how do you explain this information, Professor Yang?"

As he spoke, Su Mo took out another piece of information.

The content of the information is divided into several parts, including a list of shareholders of South Korea's Hyundai New Energy Vehicle, among which Professor Yang's name is prominently listed.

It also includes an equity authorization letter, Professor Yang's signature, and photos of Professor Yang working in the modern new energy workshop, etc.

"You should recognize your signature, right? If not, you should recognize your own photo, right? How do you explain these things, Professor Yang?"

Yang Guangming's face turned from yellow to red, then from red to white, and then from white to blue, becoming increasingly ugly.

"Su Mo. You, you, you, you investigated me?"

Su Mo looked at him coldly. "If you have nothing to hide, then you won't be afraid of being investigated. Professor Yang, you should have seen the date on this. It was signed thousands of years ago. You provided technical guidance for Hyundai Motor's lithium battery project in South Korea, and you also signed a confidentiality agreement. During the research and development period, you were not allowed to disclose the research progress of lithium batteries to the public."

"And you yourself said that you only started teaching our university students two months ago. So, for almost two years before and after, you've been helping the Koreans develop lithium batteries. And during that time, you wrote and published a book on lead-acid battery technology. Do you understand what this means?"

"I, I, I don't know what you are talking about?" Yang Guangming said, sweat already running down his face.

Su Mo sneered, "Don't you know what I'm talking about? Are my words so profound that they're hard to understand? Well, let me be more blunt. You used our country's land and equipment to research academic achievements, then sold them abroad and received one percent of the original shares. Throughout this process, you always chose to conceal them from the domestic public, and even deliberately wrote books on lead-acid battery technology, misleading the direction of our electric vehicle industry and causing our automotive technology to lag behind foreign countries."

"Our technology lags behind, leading to a lack of market competitiveness and a blow to our national industry. And yet, in the process, you've been constantly saying that domestic cars are garbage, sparing no effort to attack our companies. Your actions are, at best, vicious commercial competition, and, at worst, a spy! You're selling out our technology to curry favor with foreigners, disregarding the interests of our nation for your own selfish gain."

"You're someone like me, yet you're a role model, standing on the podium and teaching like a real person. Don't you feel guilty about this? Have all the books you've read over the years been wasted?"

Having said that, Su Mo slammed the table hard, making a loud noise!
Yang Guangming, who was over there, felt guilty and was sweating profusely after being scolded by Su Mo. When he heard a loud noise, he shuddered all over and his face quickly turned ashen.

"You, you, Su Mo, you little brat!"

"shut up!"

Su Mo scowled at Yang Guangming and said, "Do you still want to quibble and make personal attacks here? You are in Shangri-La, the Magic City, right? I will report the case to the Magic City Public Security Bureau right now and let our police uncle investigate your problem thoroughly. Professor Yang, you wait for tea at the police station!"

Yang Guangming was really scared this time. When he thought about the fact that he might be arrested and sent to jail at such an old age, he felt terrible.

His chest felt stuffy and his expression became increasingly grim.

With his hands covering his chest, he could no longer argue with Su Mo, and slid down from the chair.

Su Mo then turned to Wang Nianming, who had been watching the show from the side, and said, "Young Master Wang, why don't you go check on your friend of different generations? Don't have a heart attack. If anything happens around you, do you want me to call 120 for you?"

Wang Nianming then looked at Su Mo with some fear, and without bothering to say any polite words, he quickly hung up the live broadcast. A few seconds later, he appeared behind Yang Guangming.

Qin Ben also appeared with him, and the two of them quickly put Yang Guangming on the sofa.

Everyone was worried that Yang Guangming was really ill and Su Mo might have to bear some responsibility, when Yang Guangming suddenly spoke.

"Master Wang, you must pay me the money you promised me. I need to go abroad and hide immediately."

Wang Nianming froze there.

He slowly turned his head and looked at the computer screen on Yang Guangming's side. Seeing Su Mo's meaningful smile in the camera, he felt unwell.

He only turned off the live broadcast on his side and forgot to turn off the live broadcast on this side!
