How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself?-Chapter 556 - 256: Got Famous

Soon...

Under the arrangement of Li Wengu, batch after batch of guards arrived near Beijing University New Energy Research Institute...

Fortunately, the Institute was located in the suburbs, surrounded by industrial production bases, without too many residents. Otherwise, given the current speed of information dissemination on the internet, it would immediately go viral online. Then, the online crowd who love to intensify any drama could stir up real trouble...

Gu Heng couldn't help but swallow as he looked at the heavily armed guards outside...

Living for so many years, this was the first time he faced such a situation. To say he wasn't nervous would be a lie...

But this also indirectly showed how important the technology Gu Heng had presented was...

At this moment, the top executives of IDE Capital were also sitting in the reception room, feeling uneasy...

They had just come to discuss a partnership...

Was all this fuss necessary?

However, as these social elites were being watched and instructed not to disclose any external information, they realized that something big must have happened after they left the meeting room...

With this thought, Tu Yong couldn't help but ask Jiang Ruxue in a low voice, "Ms. Jiang, do you know what Mr. Gu just asked you to fetch?"

Jiang Ruxue was also aware that the big fuss outside was due to the item Gu Heng had her retrieve; otherwise, would an investment project of 18 billion attract such high-level attention? Impossible.

The number of guards outside was enough for an entire platoon...

Equally curious about the item she helped Gu Heng fetch, but even if she did know, she wouldn't dare to say. She shook her head and replied, "I don't know. If I did, I wouldn't be sitting here with you all. I'd probably be isolated and under surveillance by now."

Tu Lei: "This..."

Seeing the group's somewhat panicked appearance, Jiang Ruxue voiced her comfort, "Don't think too much. This thing was brought out by Mr. Gu, and he also said that it's a new project in cooperation with the state.

If it's attracting such high-level attention, it can only be a good thing, not bad.

We've all been busy lately; it's a good time to get some rest now."

After speaking, she set an example by leaning back in the comfortable chair and closing her eyes to rest...

On one hand, the management of IDE Capital had indeed been exhausted recently; whether it was corporate group structuring or the collaboration with Beijing University New Energy Research Institute and other projects, these executives needed to be involved.

And since Gu Heng was one to delegate responsibilities, Jiang Ruxue, as his secretary, had to work several times harder.

She had to filter out all the key information every day, pass the important bits to Gu Heng for approval, and leave the rest to the other staff in the chairman's office...

Also, because of being so busy, she hadn't slept more than four hours a day for the past half a month. Any other girl would have collapsed, but now, given the opportunity to rest, she certainly wasn't going to miss it.

On the other hand, it was her role to reassure the executives of IDE Capital in place of Gu Heng.

With Gu Heng absent, as the head of the chairman's office, she was the embodiment of Mr. Gu and had to exercise the chairman's duties on his behalf.

What should and shouldn't be said...

With Jiang Ruxue taking the lead, the executives did indeed start to calm down.

After all, their involvement with the company was legitimate, and even if something did happen to Gu Heng, it wouldn't involve them. But if, as Jiang Ruxue said, it turned out to be a spectacular opportunity, they trusted that Gu Heng would not forget about his subordinates.

If they couldn't be affected by bad things, but could share in the good, what was there to worry about?

With this in mind, the group of executives, who had been tired for nearly a month, began to rest with their eyes closed, following Jiang Ruxue's posture...

For a moment, an odd scene unfolded in the spacious resting room: five or six armed guards stood against the wall, while more than a dozen well-dressed business elites rested quietly and soundly in their chairs...

...

...

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Though Gu Heng was not watched over like Jiang Ruxue and Tu Lei, he was still surrounded by guards...

Watching their numbers continue to increase, Gu Heng had lost count of how many times he had swallowed nervously...

If he had known this would happen, he would have never brought out the 2nm chip mass production technology today...

Now what's done cannot be undone...

As long as the technical data provided by the system was real, it was all good...

If the technical data was fake, wouldn't he be offending the entire upper echelon?

He even suspected he might be dragged out on the spot and disposed of...

But this thought was quickly dismissed by Gu Heng himself...

Since obtaining the system, it had always been very reliable; the money awarded was never short, and even cash amounts in the hundreds of billions, or even trillions, were instantaneously transferred, something beyond the capacity of Earth's technology to explain...

A piece of 2nm chip mass production technology...

It might be at the ceiling of Earth's technological level, but to the system, it might really not be that significant...

Seeing Gu Heng's obvious nervousness, Li Wengu also comforted him, "Gu, don't be too nervous; this is just standard procedure."

Now, Gu Heng was Li Wengu's precious darling, and as long as the authenticity of the technical data was confirmed, he would be the nation's treasure. Li Wengu's address had changed from the more formal Mr. Gu to the more intimate 'Gu'...
