Chapter 133
: The country is strong and the people are rich (second update)
If Zhang Yuxin doesn't take action, she will be fatal. She will not give anyone a chance to move. She sat in the office that afternoon, dreaming that the head of Shenglong Pharmaceutical Factory came to beg him, Peng Xiaogang was taken away by the Commission for Discipline Inspection in shock, while Shimada Toshiba, who was waiting in the hotel, was taken away by the Tang Dynasty National Security Bureau for espionage.
Wu Shengjie was not clear about Zhang Yuxin's arrangements. After school in the evening, Wu Shengjie walked out of the campus with Jiang Xiuxiu as usual, and was about to send Jiang Xiuxiu back with Zhang Yuxin first, and then set off for Tianjing.
Just as the two of them reached the intersection, a car suddenly stopped in front of them. When the window was lowered, Old Master Zhang appeared in front of Wu Shengjie.
The old man sitting in the car looked at Wu Shengjie and Jiang Xiuxiu standing in front of him, and said to Jiang Xiuxiu with a kind look: "Xiuxiu! Get in the car."
When Mr. Zhang said this, he said to Wu Shengjie lukewarmly: "Wu Shengjie! You get in the car too, I have something to look for you."
If it were the past, Jiang Xiuxiu would have said goodbye to Wu Shengjie happily when she heard Mr. Zhang's words, and then got into the car. However, Jiang Xiuxiu did not do this today. Instead, she replied coldly: "My mother comes back to pick me up. I will take my mother's car back later. As for what you have to do with Shengjie, just talk about it here."
Mr. Zhang was so angry that his face turned red when he heard Jiang Xiuxiu's words. However, he always felt sorry for Jiang Xiuxiu. Moreover, in his heart, Jiang Xiuxiu was still a little girl and did not have that high awareness. So he could only hold back his anger and tied a face and said, "This is not a place to talk. Let's get in the car. As for your mother, if she arrives, she will definitely recognize my car."
Wu Shengjie knew that Jiang Xiuxiu and Mr. Zhang had become so nervous because of him. Although he did not have many contacts with Mr. Zhang, he already knew more or less about Mr. Zhang's personality. So he knew very well that Mr. Zhang was confronted by Jiang Xiuxiu but was not angry. It was because he loved Jiang Xiuxiu from the bottom of his heart. He didn't want to see an elder who cared for Jiang Xiuxiu disappointed Jiang Xiuxiu, so he took the initiative to open the car door and said to Jiang Xiuxiu: "Xiuxiu! Since your grandfather has something to come to me, let's get in the car first!"
"Director Yang of the institute called today and said that the hybrid power had been manufactured, but the test effect could not meet the requirements, so I want you to go over and help them see where the problem lies." After seeing Wu Shengjie get into the car, Mr. Zhang did not beat around the bush and explained his purpose to Wu Shengjie directly.
Wu Shengjie expected this result, because he knew very well that if there was no equipment manufactured in the base to produce hybrid power, the current technological level on the earth would be far from being able to produce qualified hybrid power. However, he did not intend to tell the other party the truth, so he directly refused: "Old Zhang! When I promised to sell hybrid power to the country, I clearly stated that I should not come to me for hybrid power in the future. Why didn't you come again after a while? Do you suspect that I quietly left a hand in that research data? Here I can swear that I have handed all the information to Director Yang. If you doubt you can disassemble the power I sent to compare and see if I have made small moves."
When Mr. Zhang told Wu Shengjie this, he had been observing the expression on Wu Shengjie's face. As a result, he found that Wu Shengjie did not show any surprise when he learned the news, but instead showed an expression that was completely expected. Therefore, at this moment, he could almost conclude that Wu Shengjie must have concealed some important issues, and this question would directly affect the success or failure of hybrid power. So at this time, he followed Wu Shengjie's answer and continued: "Director Yang compared the hybrid power they produced with the one you handed to the research institute. He found that the two powers were exactly the same, but the power output was very different. So I would like to ask you, the inventor, to take a look. I wonder when you are free?"
"Mr. Zhang! That day I repeatedly stated that I promised that all the information would be handed over to the institute without reservation. What happened next had nothing to do with me. Now you look back at me because things cannot achieve the expected results. Isn't it a bit inappropriate? Besides, the country has so many scientific researchers, and the design drawings are ready-made. Now it's like a teenager seeking help. Isn't it a bit unreasonable? Besides, now I just want to study with peace of mind. All other things have nothing to do with me. Please, Mr. Zhang, don't come to me for this damn hybrid." Wu Shengjie didn't know that his performance had already made Mr. Zhang suspicious. At this time, he was secretly happy that the institute had obtained data but could not create qualified motivation. However, he still pretended to be a victim on his face and directly refused Mr. Zhang's request.
"Shengjie! I know that you have given hybrid power to the country. You have always been very dissatisfied with this, but have you ever thought that my approach is actually to protect you and your family. The emergence of hybrid power will undoubtedly reduce the pressure on crude oil a lot, so all countries must want to master this technology. By that time, do you think you have the ability to protect this invention? Of course, the price of three million is indeed very low, but there are many places for our country to use money at present. As a citizen of the Tang Empire, can't you make some contribution to your country? The country is strong and the rich, I think you should be very clear about this principle, so I hope you can seriously consider what I said." Mr. Zhang knew that Wu Shengjie was a typical guy who was soft but not hard, so although he was angry, he did not reveal it. Instead, he moved Wu Shengjie with emotion and reason and started to persuade Wu Shengjie.
The country is strong and the people are rich? In this era, when the country is strong, the people can indeed become rich, because there is no rising price in this era. The house price changes every day, and the salary of the two parents can save some money. Not only can they support the whole family, but they even have surplus. However, in the next twenty years, although the country is gradually becoming stronger, only a small number of people who are related to it are really rich. Most people struggle all day long for food and clothing. The high prices and rising housing market have made many people breathless. Many people even worked for their whole lives, but in the end they could not even save enough money for medical treatment. It is not an exaggeration to use the Internet saying that the period of life that cannot be survived and cannot die in the past ten years to describe the changes in the Tang Empire in the next decade. Therefore, Mr. Zhang's idea was not only useless to Wu Shengjie, but even made Wu Shengjie resent those officials who only ignored the interests of the people for their own interests.
So at this time, Wu Shengjie replied without emotion: "Mr. Zhang! I am really powerless to do anything about your request. The reason why I was able to invent hybrid power was completely a component of luck. I really don't know why the hybrid power produced by the research institute cannot meet the requirements. Even if you ask me to go to the research institute for help, I can't find out where the problem is."
In order to persuade Wu Shengjie to go to the research institute to help, Mr. Zhang was moved to understand it with emotion. However, he didn't expect that Wu Shengjie was still pretending to be stupid with him. If Jiang Xiuxiu had not been sitting aside with fierce eyes, Mr. Zhang might have exploded on the spot. So at this time, he suppressed his anger and said to Wu Shengjie: "No matter whether you have a solution, you are the inventor of hybrid power. Perhaps they ignored any problems when installing your research ideas to copy hybrid power, such as raw materials, etc. Of course, I know that you have to go to school on weekdays and have no time at all. Otherwise, you can see this, I will ask Director Yang to come to school to find you, and you can take some time to meet him."
The reason why the hybrid power produced by the institute cannot meet the requirements is because the equipment that manufactures accessories in the institute cannot meet the requirements at all. The hybrid power requirements for sealing are very high when it is running. It is a little worse than the power output, so no country can produce hybrid power that can be used in military use. At this time, Wu Shengjie learned that the institute actually suspected that it was a problem of raw materials, and he felt very funny. However, this situation was exactly the scene he was happy to see, so he continued to pretend to be stupid and said: "Mr. Zhang! The raw materials of my hybrid power are the most ordinary steel, so the problem of raw materials does not exist at all. If you think I was telling a lie, you can let them pick up the power I made for raw materials analysis. Don't do it as if I really concealed something."
"Besides! My child is there to find so many high-tech materials. But the experts from the institute do what they do. If they can't create a qualified motivation, they doubt me. Isn't this trying to put the blame on me?"
