Great Power - Chapter 569
In his previous life, Zheng Jianguo remembered two coffee brands. One was instant bird’s nest coffee with water, and the other was instant coffee with less than two wallets.
Another one, called Blue Mountain coffee, only heard its name but never drank it. It is said that this kind of coffee, which is different from the main convenient and fast coffee, is rare. It was sold in China some time ago through indescribable ways, so all the previous large-scale sales were Li Gui.
I didn’t expect to forget this legendary coffee when I was rich in my life, but fortunately, Kato senkong had enough consciousness to get coffee. He didn’t say it, but also gave some shares of the coffee company.
Do you want to open a coffee chain?
It was as if this brand had pressed the recall button. Zheng Jianguo found that there were no words related to this coffee in the media reports at the moment, so he woke up that the media communication channel was still in a backward state.
Of course, this is Zheng Jianguo’s comparison with the situation of moving his fingers in his previous life, but considering the stall in his hand, he feels that there are too few talents under his hand.
“Then grind some. Everyone has a taste -”
Soon he pressed down the idea of opening a coffee chain in his mind. Zheng Jianguo left a sentence and ran away. He returned to his room with a toss in his heart. Old John closed the door for him.
When the White Swan soared up against the cold wind, in the top room of a tall building on Merritt Island on the east coast of Florida on the other side of the earth, Robert was watching a huge TV. He saw the beautiful host next to the umbrella sign: “according to the latest news obtained by this station, NASA has quoted the cost of Mr. Zheng and miss Camille’s wedding to the moon, and the estimated cost is $5 billion — ”
“Yes, five billion dollars, or we’ll be your eye-catching tool -”
Remembering that Zheng Jianguo’s words made him the target of attention by countless reporters, Robert felt that the past two days had been a great deal of pressure. At present, his forehead, which had few hairs, was even brighter. A pair of bright eyes stared at the host, and then stared a little longer, I don’t want the blonde host on TV to directly turn over the press release in his hand: “here is a message from the return of hostages. Among the 52 hostages who have returned home by Algerian plane since January 31 -”
As the host read the next message, Robert suddenly stood up from his wide desk and stared at the TV with disbelief: “shit? That’s it? The guy didn’t promise or respond? ”
“Jingling bell -”
Before Robert’s curse disappeared, the phone on the wide desk jumped up, so he picked up the phone with a depressed face. Unexpectedly, there was a scolding voice: “Robert, 5 billion dollars, do you regard NASA as your company?”
His sparse eyebrows raised. Although Robert scolded a fool in his heart, his tone was low to some humility: “Oh, Mr. vice president, I have asked your assistant for instructions on this matter. Zheng’s original words were that if NASA refused, he would go to ESA -”
The voice on the phone was dissatisfied: “ESA? Eastern Surfing Association? I don’t know when the eastern Surfing Association – Oh, you mean the European Space Agency? ”
I make complaints about Tucao’s frustration, and Robert took a slight breath to calm the way: “yes, sir. This is the decision of our expert meeting. Considering that even if Zheng Jianguo and Camille failed to enter the moon orbit, that much money would make their technology go up and threaten NASA.”
The voice on the phone disappeared, so that when Robert raised his attention and listened, a voice came: “did he bargain with you? Five billion dollars, which is about the same as your budget this year. ”
Robert immediately said, “Sir, this is not an economic or technical problem. Zheng Jianguo is also the discoverer and core expert of atomic graphite layer. If this basic material can be produced on a large scale and applied to the industrial system, let alone the moon, It’s not impossible to immigrate to Mars. As far as I know, he also cooperates with Harvard University — ”
“What I ask you is whether he agrees with your offer?”
The rude voice directly interrupted Robert’s explanation. Robert quickly touched the shiny forehead and said, “Oh, no, Mr. vice president, we haven’t received any news about Zheng Jianguo’s offer.”
Clicking, Robert looked at the hung up microphone, took a breath, threw it back on the phone, turned to his seat and began to work.
To tell the truth, Robert doesn’t believe that Zheng Jianguo really has so much money. NASA’s total budget this year is only more than 5.1 billion, less than 5.2 billion. How can this guy get so much money?
On the contrary, if Zheng Jianguo really takes out so much money, Robert believes that the FBI will have to find him and learn about the origin of the money.
If Robert feels that if this guy’s money is really OK, it’s not a big problem to restart the Apollo program. It’s said that the new president is having a headache about domestic economic problems. It’s no problem if this 5 billion goes down and drives a GDP of 10 billion?
Last year’s GDP seemed to be $2860 billion?
This is a few thousandths of GDP?
Robert did not know that compared with his vague idea, the vice president at the other end of the phone had more detailed data than he had guessed: an investment of $5 billion could drive a GDP of $15 billion, accounting for 5.2 ‰ of last year’s GDP, and could bring tens of thousands of jobs to thousands of enterprises, as well as hundreds of universities and dozens of scientific research institutions.
The number of people directly involved in the project will reach 50000, and thousands of new technologies will be updated. The most important thing is that these technologies will benefit the aerospace and military fields, and reduce a large number of previous military technologies to civilian technologies, so as to drive more economic effects.
Of course, in front of the vice president is not only the economic, technological and military effects of $5 billion, but also another document with the words of FBI top secret, which clearly states the evaluation and profile of Zheng Jianguo’s motivation to go to the moon: “as a scientist, the idea of going to the moon is also in line with scientists and their personality characteristics, However, how to ensure that the process of landing on the moon does not reveal secrets needs to be comprehensively evaluated with relevant departments. However, its participation in the lunar landing plan has violated the confidentiality requirements that prohibit foreign students from accessing the Republic. ”
The brown eyes swept over the short evaluation conclusion. The vice president raised his eyebrows, looked at the man standing in front of the table and said, “didn’t you investigate the origin of his funds?”
The man asked stood with his hands crossed in front of his lower abdomen, and a hesitation flashed on his white cheeks. It seemed that he nodded after making a decision and said, “through public intelligence analysis, the Republic’s foreign exchange reserves last year were – 1.296 billion US dollars, which was the money they borrowed from Japan –”
When the man said, he looked painful, as if he could not row on the toilet. The vice president suddenly understood what the goods were saying, so he nodded and said, “you can go.”
The man let go of his hands, nodded and left. Soon, an obscene man with shiny forehead came in in a suit and shoes. He put down the document with both hands and stepped back to stop. The vice president also picked up the document in front of him, looked at it and raised his eyebrows: “do you suspect that he has something to do with the Erlang army?”
The wretched man said frankly, “this is the intelligence we can collect at present. If you can give us more time, I believe you can get more useful information. If you can authorize us to investigate it in China, I believe you will get results soon.”
The vice president slapped the document on the table, stood up, hugged his arm and said, “just like you installed a bug when he came? If the FBI hadn’t helped you, would it have become a Harvard event like Watergate? ”
The wretched man nodded quickly and said, “Mr. vice president, if I said that the mission was a success beyond expectation, do you believe it?”
“Ha, you said it almost became a global scandal, which exceeded the expected success?”
After picking his eyebrows, the vice president said with bright eyes, turned back to the chair and sat down. He motioned in his heart and said, “well, why is it a success beyond expectations?”
The man quickly said, “according to the information we have collected from the public news, Zheng Jianguo should not be so vigilant, although his explanation is due to Helena’s plagiarism in domestic academia and the rampant crime here.
However, according to the analysis of the data we have, the act of pinning his hair in the crack of the door as an alarm when he leaves home is the vigilance that only professional special agents will have, which fully exposed that when he came, he was ready to prevent eavesdropping and investigation. ”
The detective scratched his forehead. The vice president pointed to the goods and said, “if according to your conclusion, he is a special agent or has received relevant training, why did he directly choose to call 911 after discovering that you had installed a bug?
Instead of pretending to be okay, after communicating with their intelligence agencies in private, I’ll hook you? Oh, did he know at that time that you had no law enforcement power in China, but wanted to beat you in the face?
In addition, in your report, you asked to prohibit him from contacting the research of Harvard Department of physics on the grounds that it may lead to the leakage of atomic graphite layer technology to the Republic. Do you know who discovered this atomic graphite layer?
Did you know that MIT has complained that your involvement in the research work of the atomic graphite layer laboratory led Zheng Jianguo to weaken their leading position in this field after going to Harvard?
Previously, an expert team told me that if Zheng Jianguo made a decisive breakthrough in his research on the atomic graphite layer, it would make it possible for him to land on Mars. Would you tell me to prohibit his further research on the atomic graphite layer?
Or are you going to send him to Europe or to the Republic? So that he can lead those scientific research teams to surpass our scientists? You know, he hasn’t carried out relevant research in the Republic until now. Can you find some information I need or the president needs? ”
Although I’ve heard how unreliable this department is before, the vice president was stung by what he heard and saw. Fortunately, he didn’t have the habit of exporting dirty. After scolding, he let the goods go: “I’ll convey your suggestions to the president. You can go.”
He stood up straight and nodded slightly. The wretched man turned and left after paying tribute. The vice president left the room put away the three documents on the table and threw them into the nearby file bag: “does this guy really have so much money?”
Such an idea flashed through his mind. The vice president subconsciously touched the ring on his finger, and his brown eyes lit up. So he quickly sat at his desk and took out his address book. After dialing a number, he heard a voice and looked happy: “William, I remember you said at the party the other day that someone at Harvard made a lot of money?”
“Otherwise, do you think someone will have more money and run to the investment highway of the Republic?”
The tone of the people on the phone was relaxed and did not respect the vice president at all. However, when he heard clearly, he seemed to be pressed the recall search key. Only when he remembered about Clark asset management, the voice on the phone continued: “based on my understanding of those people, they would not do it without the benefit of making big money, Now the best young man from Harvard is going to the moon for a wedding. Do you think the Harvard Club lacks this $5 billion?
As far as I know, the Black Hawk helicopter and zhinugan were approved at two junctures in order to open the arms sales market to China. Not to mention that the young man is still a man of the Republic, the $5 billion orders related to aerospace alone are enough for those people to run errands.
And how broad the market is in that country, I believe you, who have been there, have the most experience. If our president reverses his prejudices, I believe Harvard’s people are right again — ”
The vice president’s eyes flickered when he heard his past mentioned on the phone, as if he were trapped in memory. He listened to the voice on the phone, quickly said a few words and agreed to a dinner. When he put down the phone, he sighed slightly: “if the president refuses Zheng Jianguo’s request in the name of national security, it is clear to guard against the best young man in Harvard.
Although I’m happy to see the Harvard Club go bankrupt, I can have a mouth lawsuit on the economy and foreign policy after that. I haven’t considered those aviation enterprises yet. “
