Reborn in 2010, the AI ​​in my mind is too powerful.

After having a quick bite to eat when he got home that evening, Chen Yiran opened Skype when it was almost time.

Mr. and Mrs. Chen seemed very happy. As soon as the video call connected, Mrs. Chen quickly brought up the house.

"I've really seen a lot lately, looked at so many luxury homes, they're all outrageous. In the end, we decided on No. 6 Gongyuan, no more being picky. We've already made arrangements with them and paid the deposit."

Chen Yiran was a bit speechless. He didn't really like No. 6 Gongyuan. Although it was a decent place now, it wasn't exactly top-tier. The main problem was that, despite its central location, it was surrounded by old alleyways and lacked the atmosphere of an affluent neighborhood.

"Aren't you going to be picky? Diaoyutai No. 7 Courtyard, that's pretty good."

Chen's mother started complaining: "You're only thinking about whether the house is good or bad. Your parents still have to go to work. It's relatively convenient for me to go to the Xicheng Bus Group, but your dad comes to work in Shijingshan every day. Living in Diaoyutai, it would take him at least 3 hours round trip. But Diaoyutai No. 7 Courtyard is nice, the environment is so good. We still have to buy it, so you can stay there when you go back to China."

That's really great! Let me tell you, that's where the richest people live. You might be fine living there, but the two of us probably wouldn't be used to it. What kind of people would the neighbors be? I'd feel awkward talking to them every day.

The people we saw in the model apartments last time had a completely different vibe. The decor there was definitely more comfortable than the Gongyuan apartment. Gongyuan No. 6 looked too nouveau riche. The Diaoyutai area looked very grand; all the wood and stone used looked expensive.

And the appliances are incredibly complete. You mentioned in our video call that almost every American home has an oven. Both of these buildings are fully furnished and have ovens too, I think they're from a really good brand called Gaggenau. I'm thinking of trying to bake some bread at home sometime.”

Mr. Chen also started complaining: "We think Yiheyuan is nice, but it's still too far. Pangu Plaza is the same; it's inconvenient for both of us to get to work. Gongyuan No. 6 is much better. The subway is right next to it, so we don't have to drive to work, and it's convenient for everything. The small street market is also very close. Your mother and I tried it, and we can just walk there in the morning. It's very convenient for things like having breakfast and buying groceries."

"Alright, alright, whatever makes you happy. I'll transfer the money to you later. Twenty million US dollars? Didn't you say you wanted to buy Diaoyutai too?"

After doing the math, Aunt Chen said, "Okay, if you have enough money, transfer twenty million US dollars. We've reserved the best one at Gongyuan No. 6, a 19th-floor unit. It's 360 square meters, and fifteen million should be enough. As for Diaoyutai No. 7, they're selling slowly. We'll wait until there's a new phase and see if we can help you buy a good one."

"Things are expensive over there, some are six or seven hundred square meters, an entire floor. But we definitely won't be able to spend all twenty million US dollars. I'll manage the rest, so you'll have money to spend if your business fails in the US and you come back. I've been reading some books at work lately, and it seems starting a business is quite difficult, so be careful. There's also some good news: your dad got a job transfer."

"A transfer? Wasn't it just a few years ago? The Production Planning Department is considered an important department, so where are they now?"

Mr. Chen said with a hint of pride, "It's all thanks to you. Now that the family is rich, even the leaders know about it. But how can we work properly when we're so rich? After talking to me, they assigned me a good job. The production planning department is important, but it's exhausting. We have to schedule production, track materials, and coordinate energy supply. Right now, it's a critical period of shutting down the Shijingshan plant and starting up the Caofeidian plant. This department is too tiring."

"Now it's all good; they've transferred me to be the director of the engineering coordination office. We have land swap and transformation tasks, right? It's all been decided from above. Actually, there's not much work; I just have to have tea with people from the demolition office and the planning commission. I also have a position as an investigator at Shougang Qian'an Mining Area; I can go visit old friends when I have time."

Chen's mother explained from the side, "To put it bluntly, it's because they see you have money now and feel more at ease letting your dad manage the money. There are so many messy things involved, like land deals and demolitions. As long as your dad is there, he can ensure that things don't go wrong at Shougang. Your dad's got ambitions now. Ever since you became successful, he's been complaining of back and leg pains every time he goes to work, and the bosses have noticed."

"I did have back and leg pains; it was from working in the factory before."

"Your back and legs were aching, so you took leave and stood at the chess stall by the gate for half a day. There are so many people from Shougang around here, plenty of them saw it."

"Alright, alright, that's true. Your son is so rich now, it's normal for him to want to relax. This job is pretty good, it's just clocking in every day, coordinating the land transfer is easy, anyway, they do the work first and then come to us."

The family chatted like this for over half an hour before finally ending the video call.

Chen Yiran felt pretty good. In her previous life, her father was very busy with work, mainly because he had a lot of worries. This kind of leisurely job now was not bad at all.

I took out my phone and called Datong.

Linda's sweet voice appeared, which was supposed to be a polite greeting.

Chen Yiran didn't mince words and directly stated his request: "Linda, I need to transfer a sum of money to China, twenty million US dollars. What do you think we should do?"

"Okay, Mr. Chen, for such a large cross-border wire transfer, I need your authorization code. Then just give me all the payment information. The clearing process will take one to two business days. I also need your tax payment certificate and proof of the source of funds, because the amount is so large, the financial crime enforcement department will definitely need it."

Required documents are normal; even receiving payments domestically requires documents, otherwise domestic banks might refuse to accept the money.

"Okay, I'll send it to your email later. There's something else: I want to buy a car, could you help me contact some good tuning shops? I want a bulletproof one."

Linda took a note and asked, "Do you have a preference for any particular car model?"

"I don't want a sedan, I want a big SUV with good bulletproof protection. Please check the situation on your end and send the relevant information to my email."

Linda was incredibly fast. Chen Yiran hung up the phone and took Pidan to pick up Hannah.

I exercised for a while, which took a little over an hour, and then my email rang.

Datong recommended two of the most famous armored vehicle modification companies, both of which they have partnerships with, and you can pick up the vehicle directly if needed.

They also introduced some information about armored vehicles. Generally speaking, American armored vehicle companies use a dual standard of Europe and the United States.

European CEN standards, levels B1 to B7.

B1-B3 are entry-level weapons, only effective against some handguns.

The B4 to B5 caliber vehicles can withstand 12mm shotgun shells and .44 Magnum rounds, marking a significant milestone. At this level, the doors and windows are now made of thick, bulletproof polycarbonate glass.

B6-B7 are heavy armored vehicles, large vehicles that require a heavy-duty suspension. They can basically withstand AK-47 fire and even withstand one or two grenades exploding under the vehicle.

The difference lies in the fact that the B6 can only stop 7.62mm full-metal-cased soft-core rifle rounds, while the B7 is not afraid of even 7.62mm hardened steel-core armor-piercing rounds. Since it can stop high-velocity armor-piercing rounds, even snipers would find it difficult to inflict damage without a large-caliber anti-materiel rifle.

The US NIJ standard was originally a standard for body armor, with Level 3 roughly equivalent to the European B6 standard. The highest Level 4 is also a standard for protection against armor-piercing projectiles, and this is the highest standard for individual armor in the US military.

Whether it's the B7 or the NIJ4, vehicles of this level can withstand direct fire from heavy machine guns used by the US military during wartime.

Both tuning companies are top-notch. One is O'Gara Coach in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, a long-established company that specializes in modifying cars for presidents and Hollywood stars, and is skilled in integrating stealth armor into high-end German SUVs.

They recommended the Mercedes-Benz G55 AMG B6 armored version, with the original price at 88,000 and the B6 armor upgrade package at 120,000. It has the same chassis as a tank, so adding a ton of armor won't affect its off-road capabilities.

The other is the Texas Armoring Corporation in San Antonio, Texas.

They primarily promoted heavy armor for American full-size SUVs, offering an even more exaggerated solution.

The Chevrolet Suburban 2500 HD, which is available in a pickup truck version, uses a heavy-duty pickup chassis and is very suitable for modification. It can be perfectly modified to meet the B7NIJ4 standard. At $25 a unit, you can take home an invisible armored vehicle.

Jasmine then stepped in and gave Chen Yiran some hints.

[You've probably seen this Texas Armoring Corporation's videos in your past life. Their boss personally sat in a car filming himself getting shot, while his employees fired a burst of AK-47s at him. This later inspired other armor company bosses to also personally film their own shooting sessions. I suggest you choose them.]

"The suggestion is useless. Why should I choose it? I might as well just buy both. It's a pity about my Cayenne. The chassis of this old car is too bad. The unibody construction can only go up to B5."

I quickly replied to Linda's email, telling her I wanted both cars.

Chen Yiran thought for a moment and realized that the only protective measure he needed was a gun. However, he realized that his I-485 and I-140 had been submitted for more than a month.

According to TED, the green card should be issued soon, and he can be armed with weapons immediately.
