Capítulo 2154: Chapter 1380: Them
The car drove out of the indestructible wall once again, and gradually only the satellite antennas on the top of the main building could be seen.
“Have you read Three-Body?”
Jiang Chen, sitting in the passenger seat, withdrew his gaze and sat up straight.
“Hmm?”
Cao Jinse made a nasal sound.
“Do you think that one day, when technology advances to a certain level, we might actually invite aliens over? In other words, could our relentless pursuit of scientific breakthroughs be our own undoing?”
Boss Jiang understands the importance of being prepared for danger in tis of peace. After a tour around the research center, he imdiately started brainstorming.
Of course.
Before leaving, he still had a lunch in the park, as the “major investor,” just having a al was rightfully deserved.
“You’ve never seen an alien?”
Cao Jinse startled with her words.
Jiang Chen tilted his head, “Have you seen one?”
“Isn’t Bian Zaide from the Hippo Group one?”
“…”
Jiang Chen was silent for a mont, then said, “Aren’t you afraid he’ll sue you?”
Cao Jinse quietly drove.
“Do you think there is extraterrestrial life in the universe?”
Jiang Chen leaned back in the passenger seat, gazing at the sky through the windshield, seemingly still indulging in his earlier role at Yanhuang Hall.
Cao Jinse cooperated and responded, “Yes, there is.”
Decisively.
“Why are you so certain? Have you seen top-secret files?”
“A river either has no fish, or not just one.” Cao Jinse succinctly put.
Jiang Chen nodded in agreent, “I just asked Dr. Lin the sa thing, and she also said that the probability of aliens existing in the universe is like the certainty of death.”
“Are you satisfied now?”
Cao Jinse kept driving and steered the conversation back on track.
Occasionally gazing at the starry sky can add much fun to life, but for the most part, grounding is essential.
Jiang Chen nodded without hesitation, giving an “unexpected” evaluation.
“Dr. Lin just ntioned needing to add two quantum computers.”
Cao Jinse casually remarked.
Got caught in the trap.
Jiang Chen laughed, “No wonder you were so kind to bring on a tour today.”
“Those are two separate matters.”
Cao Jinse remained calm.
Jiang Chen didn’t waste words and directly asked, “How much is needed?”
“Ten billion.”
The nation needs to seek partners for a reason.
The construction and facilities within the research center’s building truly embody a sense of futuristic technology, but all that is built on real money.
Once those devices are turned on, what gets burned is not ti, but funding flowing like water.
“Temporarily, even five billion would do.”
Cao Jinse added, still considering Jiang Chen’s situation.
But is Boss Jiang soone who cares about peanuts like this?
At his level, it can be sumd up in one phrase: a thousand gold pieces just for I’m Willing.
“I’ll give two billion. They are the most brilliant minds of our nation; we cannot let them be distracted by trivial matters like money. Their ti cannot be asured in monetary terms, and we shouldn’t waste even a second on irrelevant stuff.”
These words were not rely out of respect from a top student to top intellectuals but solely stating facts.
Speaking purely of the achievents made by the research center.
In gene editing, the survival period of pig organ transplants into humans has been extended to over a year.
Then there’s aerospace technology.
Participating in the construction of the first lunar navigation system with an accuracy of centiter-level.
In the field of quantum technology.
They have taken quantum computing technology to new heights, not only capable of simulating particle movents 0.1 seconds after the Big Bang but also increasing the accuracy of financial risk predictions by 1000 tis over classical algorithms.
The impact and significance brought by these breakthroughs cannot simply be asured by tens or hundreds of billions.
Cao Jinse seed shocked by Boss Jiang’s generosity, tilted her head to look at him, and then said, “How about I take you to another place for a tour?”
Jiang Chen shook his head.
“Why not?”
Jiang Chen sighed.
“The ticket is too expensive.”
“It’s not too bad; most of the research outcos you have the right to utilize; you’ll only profit and not lose.”
The nation certainly doesn’t see him as a re cash cow; this is an absolutely fair and equal partnership. Apart from the confidential technological breakthroughs that cannot be disclosed, the rest Jiang Chen can use comrcially.
This alone fully justifies his investnt.
Indeed.
You could say these institutes were built with his money, but the integration of various resources goes far beyond just having funds.
For soone like Lin Zhuzhen, how could a businessman make her devote herself entirely to work?
Top-tier scientists should not be viewed with a superficial mindset; their thinking diverges greatly from ordinary people and cannot be moved by money.
“I didn’t earn as much as you do, though. You make money from both ends. No one can top your business acun.”
Jiang Chen sighed.
Cao Jinse did not deny it this ti, “I’m just making small money, while you are doing great things.”
“Don’t, I’ve nearly emptied my family savings; no matter how much you flatter , you won’t squeeze any juice from .”
“Why presu the worst? I genuinely admire you from the bottom of my heart.”
“You? Admire ? Cao Jinse, don’t belittle people like this.”
“In the na of wealth, I solemnly swear.
——To devote this life’s fortune solely to Huaxia’s land, not altering the original intent despite changes in circumstance. Even being abroad, my heart will forever be tied to Jiu Zhou’s mountains and rivers.
——Not shrouding truth with self-interest, nor twisting facts with prejudice. Business actions should be engraved in reality like Bronze Tripod Inscriptions, written with vigor.
——Guarding ethical bottom lines like protecting pupils, not colluding with foreign interests for gains. Business achievents should benefit the masses, not beco private tools for a class.
——Preserving a heart for aiding society and the people, without assuming nobility. Treating successors like the Yangtze River’s succeeding waves, sharing all knowledge unstintingly.
——In the event of a significant financial crisis, I will construct the last line of defense with my flesh and blood. My life may cease, but the economic spark won’t extinguish.
——In the final monts, I will entrust all life’s wealth into the nation’s treasury, transforming it into a ladder for future climbers.”
“Heaven and earth as witnesses, and the galaxy as proof, should I break this vow, may I face eternal deprivation of research qualifications and may my soul never return to the holand’s mountains and rivers.”
“——Oath-taker, Jiang Chen.”
Jiang Chen was stunned.
Not because he was amazed by the other party’s remarkable mory.
But.
Is this what he vowed earlier?
Especially the last segnt.
“Entrusting all life’s wealth to the nation’s treasury… Isn’t that too harsh? Not leaving even a bit?”
Cao Jinse silently drove, saying nothing.
“It’s whatever for , given that I’m gone, but what about my kids? They’ll bla .”
Boss Jiang indeed has great love without boundaries, not minding to benefit society as much as he can, but he is also a normal person, not a saint.
Donating all his property and leaving nothing for his children, that takes a rare kind of disregard.
Cao Jinse didn’t laugh but slightly tilted her head to glance sideways at soone.
“They?”
Jiang Chen looked ahead, chuckling.
