Chapter 281 - 281: My Name is Liu Kun, You Can

The information prepared by Lu Chao was thick.
Jiang Xu spent nearly an hour reading through it.
The main content was that Lu had acquired several overseas chip and display manufacturers.
Then through a series of maneuvers, he set up these factories domestically.
Of course.
These were not major factories.
They were smaller operations, but they possessed certain quantities of practical patents.
These factories were located just outside Magic City.
Lu Chao carried out a major consolidation.
The factory employed over a hundred R&D staff.
Lu Chao looked at Jiang Xu and said, “My family gave me five billion in startup funds, which are almost entirely invested now.
But there’s still a long way to go to see results.
If you’re willing to invest two billion, I can give you a thirty percent stake.”
Jiang Xu obviously couldn’t agree to such a proposition so easily.
He said calmly, “Don’t rush, let’s take a look at your company tomorrow.”
Asking for two billion right off the bat, how could that be possible?
Due diligence was necessary for such large investments.
Lu Chao nodded, “Alright, then I’ll take you there tomorrow.”
Then, he turned to An Nuonuo, “Class President, please accept my friend request, please, I swear I’m a good person.”
An Nuonuo: “Next time, definitely next time.”
Lu Chao:”???”
Being with Jiang Xu for so long, An Nunou had also become mischievous.
In the end, Lu Chao left with an extremely gloomy mood.
After the light bulb was gone, the couple finally began to eat.
“Eat your own, you don’t have to keep getting it for me.” Jiang Xu watched An Nuonuo somewhat helplessly.
This silly girl was continuously peeling shrimp for him, but not eating any herself.
“I don’t like shrimp.”
As she spoke, she continued peeling shrimp for Jiang Xu.
When they were together, An Nuonuo always gave more.
Jiang Xu finally ‘couldn’t bear it anymore’.
With a handful of peeled shrimp, he stuffed them directly into her mouth.
Her mouth was stuffed full.
She gazed at Jiang Xu with a pair of innocent big eyes, looking a bit wronged.
Jiang Xu said ‘fiercely’, “Eat quickly, or I’ll drag you to the ground floor and kiss you in front of everyone.”
An Nuonuo, unable to speak, made a whimpering sound from her mouth.She nodded vigorously.
Jiang Xu then sat down satisfied.
Just after finishing their meal, An Nuonuo received a call from a female classmate asking her to help deal with something.
“I’ll go first, Brother Xu.”
Having said that, An Nuonuo hurriedly left.
Jiang Xu returned to his dorm to continue coding.
Jia Tengying and Jin Xiansheng weren’t there; he was alone in the dorm.
The next day, Jiang Xu took a group of company employees to visit a factory in the southern suburbs of Magic City with Lu Chao.
The factory occupied a quite large area.
Most of the equipment in the factory was phased out from other countries.
High-end products such as chips and screens had their core technologies controlled by foreign entities.
China started late and lagged behind.
Lu Chao was quite honest about it and did not boast to Jiang Xu.
Instead, he frankly explained the situation.
This made Jiang Xu feel much better about him.
In the end, Jiang Xu set a condition.
“If you can poach Professor Ni Guangnan, I will agree to the equity participation.”
This man was an exceptionally significant technical expert.
He was one of the original founders of Lianxiang.
He once insisted on the full-scale development of chip technology.
In the future, that won’t be choked.
At the beginning of the new century, our country’s chip technology was actually not much different from that abroad.
However, later on, we found ourselves swept out the door.
Our country’s chips could have caught up with those from overseas.
But that’s because those “loyal retainers” didn’t think it was necessary to spend so much money on research and development.
We could just buy chips from foreigners, why waste money on it?
As a result, this led to several decades of chip backwardness.
Who knows how much money we made for the foreigners and how much humiliation we suffered.
Jiang Xu could be one hundred percent assured of having such a big shot to guide the research and development of the chips.
“I’ve heard of this big shot as well.” Lu Chao nodded, “I’ll meet him in person now.”
Jiang Xu admonished once again, “Show the spirit of visiting him thrice and at the same time, give him at least ten percent of the shares.”
For such a top big shot, Jiang Xu believed that any benefits given to him were deserved.
If you treat them well, they will give you a hundred-fold, a thousand-fold, or even ten thousand-fold return in the future.
Time quickly came to the day after tomorrow.
Military training began.
All first-year students dressed in training uniforms, standing under the sun, looked like they had lost all hope.
The person in charge of Jiang Xu’s class was a seemingly kind young man.
He smiled gently, “My name is Liu Kun, you can also call me Brother Kun.
Before roll call, please run five laps around the playground.
If you can’t finish, add ten laps… Now, start!”
The last four words suddenly raised the volume, startling everyone.
Many had fearful expressions on their faces.
Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo remained calm.
Because the night before, Jiang Xu had already told An Nuonuo about the usual tactics of the military instructors.
Many things, once you know their essence, you won’t be afraid.
An Nuonuo shouted loudly, “Turn left, start running!”
To say the least, she was quite imposing.
Liu Kun couldn’t help but look at An Nuonuo a few more times.
This girl, anyone who meets her for the first time would be amazed.
Despite An Nuonuo’s seemingly soft appearance, she actually had great stamina.
After five laps, she was just panting.
Unlike some girls who were about to collapse.
Without giving people a chance to rest, Liu Kun started the training.
Two hours later, the morning military training finally ended.
Everyone rushed to the shade under the trees.
At this time, Mu Zi said to An Nuonuo, “Class President, can you go buy some water for everyone, thanks.
As class president, it’s okay to treat everyone to some water during military training, right?”
This was not just a request for one day, but for the entire military training period.
A clear case of moral kidnapping.
Jiang Xu’s eyes were slightly narrowed.
Last time, he felt like Mu Zi was somewhat targeting An Nuonuo.
Now it seems that his speculation was correct.
Everyone was exhausted from the training just now.
Yet Mu Zi ordered An Nuonuo alone to buy water for everyone.
And she didn’t even mention the money.
Once Mu Zi opened her mouth, several other girls chimed in.
They immediately put An Nuonuo on the spot.
She had no choice but to agree.
If she didn’t agree, she would be deemed as lacking a sense of group consciousness.
She would be accused of being stingy.
She wouldn’t be fulfilling the responsibilities of a class president.
Sure enough, the competition in college was even more intense.
These girls were probably just jealous of An Nuonuo’s beauty, popularity, and even having a great boyfriend like Jiang Xu.
Jiang Xu wanted to stand up for An Nuonuo.
But he didn’t expect An Nuonuo to defuse this little crisis by herself….
