Reinforcement Panel: Tech Wars

Chapter 148 Meeting at Guting, the plan is laid out
As dusk fell, a Tengzhong MPV stopped at the foot of a hill in the northeastern suburbs of Nanshi.

The hill is not high, only about a hundred meters, and only a walking path can be seen at the pass. Looking at the trail looming in the mist at night, Li Fucheng looked hesitant.

"Why did you find such a place?"

It was not easy for him to reach the top of the mountain in a suit and leather shoes.

"Mr. Li, how about you contact that person?"

"They don't look like serious people at all, meeting in the mountains this late at night."

The driver stood behind Li Fucheng and looked at the hill ahead hidden in the darkness.

As a local, he would never climb such a hill at night, and it would be impossible for him to find someone for help if he fell.

Li Fucheng raised his mobile phone and looked at the geographic location sent by the contact on WeChat.

He has been in charge of the Star Group for nearly a month, and the funds that have gone out of his hands are close to 10 billion yuan, but he has never met the person in charge of the group.

Today was his first chance to meet the other person.

"Wait for me downstairs. I'll call you if anything happens."

Li Fucheng turned on the light on his mobile phone and climbed up the steps along the trail.

"Boss Li, how about I accompany you?"

Hearing the driver's voice, Li Fucheng waved his hand to reject the other party's kindness.

The man only invited him up, but didn't ask him to bring anyone else up.

On the way up the steps, insects and birds chirped in the woods nearby. These nocturnal animals hid their bodies behind leaves and bushes, staring curiously at the humans walking alone on the steps.

A few minutes passed. As Li Fucheng usually paid attention to physical exercise, his breathing was relatively stable. However, the two forked paths in front of him confused him.

I opened the map on my phone and zoomed in, trying to find the way up the mountain.

The hill was not a famous tourist attraction, so the search results were bound to disappoint him.

Li Fucheng looked up and around at the shadowy shadows of the forest and the twinkling lights in the city in the distance, scratching his head anxiously.

“I hate this place.”

"This barren mountain now belongs to the group, and we must transform it next!"

Just as I made up my mind, the phone in my hand rang.

"Take the path on the left"

Seeing the text on the phone, Li Fucheng looked around in surprise, trying to find other figures or surveillance cameras high up.

"Hello, is anyone around?"

In the empty forest, the sound traveled far away, and Li Fucheng even heard a slight echo bouncing back from the opposite mountain wall.

Seeing no one responded, Li Fucheng shook his head and continued walking forward with his phone in hand.

On the rest of the journey, whenever Li Fucheng encountered a fork in the road or showed signs of being lost, he would receive a text message prompt on his mobile phone.

Li Fucheng was always surprised by the prompt text that always appeared in time.

This made him even more curious about the actual controller of Star Group.

Stepping onto a stone step, the night wind blew, and without the shelter of rocks and trees, Li Fucheng shuddered and wrapped his clothes more tightly.

There was an ancient pavilion on the top of the hill. Li Fucheng turned around and saw a figure standing in the pavilion.

It seems to be this person.

Li Fucheng walked quickly into the ancient pavilion. When he saw the other person's back, he discovered that the man was slightly shorter than him. Judging from his figure, he should not be very old.

"Hello."

Li Fucheng greeted him, but the man did not turn around immediately.

"Hello, Mr. Li, can you put your phone away first?"

Since he could call out my name, he must be the president of the group. I turned off the light of my phone and put it in my pocket.

"This place is a little dark. I don't dare to come up here at night without lighting."

The figure in front turned around, revealing a man who looked too young.

There was no lighting in the twilight and vision was limited, but Li Fucheng could confirm at a glance that the person in front of him was no more than twenty years old!
Thinking that this person had given him full control over tens of billions of funds and that he also had such a close relationship with the official Dongda University, Li Fucheng had more speculations about the identity of the young man in front of him.

He had come across Dongda people of similar status in the past, but the person in front of him was a little younger.

Steady!

This time the boss is rich and powerful, so Li Fucheng will definitely have a good life.

Li Fucheng was extremely grateful that he had taken the bold risk to accept the remote offer to come to Dongda to serve as a manager.

"Li Fucheng, a Chinese from Po County, is a second-generation immigrant. His parents retired and settled in Po County. His wife is also Chinese. She currently works as a mathematics teacher at an educational institution where she lives."

The information suddenly spoken by the person in front of him made Li Fucheng, who was still daydreaming, stand there in a daze.

".You have two sons, both of whom are studying at the school where your wife works."

The information that the person in front of me mentioned was communicated by both parties during the application period and is not considered private or confidential.

But the information the other party said next made Li Fucheng's body tense instantly and his eyes filled with fear.

"At 3:15 pm on March 10th, in the Qingmulin private room of the Shibuyu Restaurant in Nanshi, someone asked you for cooperation. As for the content of the cooperation, I don't need to say more, right?"

Wei Jiang put his hands in his pockets, his eyes were cold under his baseball cap, and he looked at Li Fucheng with a slight smile on his lips.

When he met Li Fucheng for the first time, in order to ensure that this person was a subordinate who could be controlled by him, he had to use such a bad trick as showing his power.

Everything he said was true, including the fact that someone had secretly contacted Li Fucheng.

Fortunately, Li Fucheng upheld his professional ethics and did not make any mistakes at that time, otherwise there would never have been a meeting tonight.

"Sir, misunderstanding!"

"This is all a misunderstanding. I thought the other party could become a partner of the group, so I accepted the invitation to meet with him."

"The situation you described does exist, but I rejected the other party sternly, and then I left immediately!"

Li Fucheng was very emotional. He had preconceived guesses about Wei Jiang's identity. He didn't dare to think about the consequences of being caught in someone else's territory.

Wei Jiang took a step forward and stood in front of Li Fucheng, and put his hand on Li Fucheng's shoulder.

Li Fucheng is 39 years old this year, more than a generation older than Wei Jiang.

Wei Jiang's palm clearly felt Li Fucheng's body tremble just now.

"I know."

"Don't worry, I know it's a misunderstanding."

"On the contrary, I admire your principles."

The two of them got closer and could clearly see the expressions on each other's faces.

After Wei Jiang finished speaking, Li Fucheng's expression relaxed and his stiff body relaxed.

"Thank you."

Taking a step forward, Wei Jiang looked towards the forest behind Li Fucheng. Things in the shadows were unclear, and he could only see a dark shadow flashing by.

"Okay, now we know each other."

"I can tell you that the person listed in the group's profile is my fake identity, Gordon White."

"As for my true identity, you don't need to know."

"You just need to run the group well and work hard, and your reward will never be less, but will only be more in the future."

At this point, Wei Jiang turned to look at Li Fucheng and asked jokingly:
"You won't investigate my true identity, will you?"

Li Fucheng waved his hands hurriedly. Knowing that the person in front of him was not simple, how could he still foolishly investigate?

The group and Dongda are working closely together, and the official authorities are turning a blind eye. It would be a death wish for him, a worker, to worry about these things.

"No, no, Mr. White."

Wei Jiang felt a little uncomfortable hearing this unfamiliar name.

This identity was forged by Red Star using technical means overseas, and the company registered and established was under the name of Gordon White.

"Good."

"Let's get back to work."

"During this period of time, I believe you have already become familiar with all the assets that the group has acquired nearby. Now it is time for the group to be officially launched."

"You will receive an email in the evening with the group's recent development plan that I have compiled." "All you have to do is execute it according to the plan. If you have any questions during the process, please contact me online for feedback."

Li Fucheng nodded, his mind quickly recording every word Wei Jiang said.

Before the meeting tonight, he guessed that the group would make a big move.

Spending huge amounts of money to acquire so many unrelated companies from the government, judging from the means of the person in front of him, he must have ambitions that go beyond those of ordinary entrepreneurs.

As the group's executive president, the time will come when he will be required to demonstrate his value.

Seeing the person in front of him turning towards him, Li Fucheng looked at him expectantly.

"I'll let you know when we need a meeting later."

"During this period, you just need to do your job well and avoid talking about anything related to me."

"No matter who it is, including the authorities, you just need to deal with it."

"Understood, Mr. White."

"You hired me, so I'll show you my worth!"

"I have experience working for a large enterprise in the East, please rest assured that I can handle these matters."

When it comes to his own field, Li Fucheng gradually regains his usual confidence and competence.

After seeing this, Wei Jiang hummed and thought that Hongxing had found a good person.

"There is another thing I need to remind you of."

"The group is of a special nature, and many people are watching it."

"I believe you have already come into contact with this aspect."

Wei Jiang saw the sudden realization on Li Fucheng's face, smiled, took a step forward and stood beside him.

"Don't take it lightly, the level of the opponent is beyond your imagination."

"Face-to-face contact is just a test. The opponent may also use some less honorable means."

"So please be aware of your own personal safety."

When saying this, Wei Jiang stared at Li Fucheng's eyes. He clearly saw a flash of fear in this man's eyes. People with families always think more.

"Haha, don't worry."

“These opponents are located overseas, and considering our good relationship with the officials of the University of East, maybe I am just worrying too much.”

"To be on the safe side, we should travel less and return to Po County less frequently."

Seeing that Li Fucheng was getting more and more frightened, Wei Jiang reached out and pinched his shoulder.

"Don't worry, the opponents won't target your family, because they are worthless to me."

"You are the only one who is valuable to me now."

"I will protect your personal safety."

"Please rest assured that nothing will happen to you in Nanshi from tonight onwards."

"I said."

Li Fucheng stared at Wei Jiang in panic. He didn't know whether this young man from Dongda University named Gordon White was lying to him.
Dongda is famous for its good security in the Blue Star. Who are the overseas opponents that White mentioned?

Whose interests overseas can be violated by the new group formed by the integration of more than 20 small enterprises?
"Mr. White, are you worrying too much?"

Li Fucheng forced a smile to try to break the tense atmosphere.

"Our group is only this small now, why would anyone want to take action against us?"

Wei Jiang smiled and shook his head without answering.

"Just to remind you, maybe you are right."

As night fell outside the pavilion, Wei Jiang said to Li Fucheng:
"That's it for tonight. Send me a message if you have anything else."

"By the way, give me your phone."

Wei Jiang took the phone from the puzzled Li Fucheng and connected Li Fucheng's phone to his own with a customized data cable without waiting for him to unlock it.

After a few seconds, he pulled out the data cable and returned the phone to Li Fucheng, who still looked confused.

"It's okay to use other electronic devices for non-company matters."

"You must use this phone to contact me."

The meeting tonight had a great impact on Li Fucheng. He could probably guess what the person in front of him had done to his phone.

"Ok."

Watching Wei Jiang stride out of the pavilion, Li Fucheng moved quickly to catch up.

"Mr. White, I talked to you online before, and you said you wanted to establish a comprehensive AI industry group."

“I think the companies that the group is acquiring now cover too many industries.”

Wei Jiang kept walking, tilted his head and looked at Li Fucheng who was following him and said:
"Mr. Li, the AI ​​industry is an opportunity to systematically reform traditional industries. We need to broaden our horizons and we may see new opportunities."

"As for the value of the small businesses under the group, you will soon see it."

"Wait for my email."

After Wei Jiang finished speaking, he saw that Li Fucheng was still following him closely, so he opened his mouth to remind him:

"Mr. Li, don't be impatient. Everything has just begun."

Seeing that Wei Jiang didn't want to talk more, Li Fucheng suppressed his fear and didn't ask any more questions.

The way down the mountain was illuminated by mobile phones, and the two walked smoothly. When they reached a fork in the road on the mountainside, Wei Jiang pointed to the path on the right that led to a dense forest and said:
"I'll go this way, you go to the left, bye."

Without giving Li Fucheng a chance to ask questions, Wei Jiang took a few steps and walked into the dense forest, leaving Li Fucheng standing there.

"It's so mysterious, what's this person's background?"

This kind of curiosity is human nature. After going up the mountain tonight, Li Fucheng is still a little confused.

If the other party had not proven that he was indeed the owner of the group, he would definitely have thought that he had met a scammer.

The secrecy and mystery left him a little confused.

"Go down the mountain early, there are snakes in the mountains at night."

Seeing the words, Li Fucheng looked around in horror.

beep~

"Remember to do what I say, work hard, and control your curiosity."

Li Fucheng took a step forward and entered the path on the left. He was no longer curious about why Gordon White could know the information around him.

He just wanted to get down the mountain as quickly as possible to avoid running into the cute, slippery little animals in the mountains.

With the help of text messages on his mobile phone giving directions, Li Fucheng ran down the mountain in less than ten minutes. The MPV he was riding in was still parked at the foot of the mountain.

"Mr. Li, you're coming down."

"You look unhappy, what happened?"

Li Fudong shook his head, put his phone in his pocket and got into the car.

"It's all black, let's go back to the city."

The driver saw that Li Fucheng was in a hurry to leave, so he opened the car door and got in.

The two people in the car did not notice that several dark shadows quickly jumped out from the bushes nearby and got under the car.
-
When Wei Jiang got out of the SUV, he had a mask on his face.

He walked into the gate of Huailiu Warehouse in front of him. The lights in the duty room not far away were on, and the security guard on duty did not notice Wei Jiang walking around at all.

Hearing the sound of the door of Warehouse No. 3 closing behind him, Wei Jiang took off his mask and looked at the bustling scene in the warehouse.

Countless mechanical spiders are running and transferring between operating instruments and equipment.

Under the auspices of Red Star, the manufacturing of mechanical spider parts has never stopped.

In order to avoid waste of materials, the final assembly test had to be completed by Wei Jiang himself.

The goal tonight is to use up the previously ordered materials, then repackage the instruments and equipment and put them back in place, waiting for the group employees to move out.

Facing the wooden box next to him full of metal parts, Wei Jiang flexed his ten fingers with full enthusiasm.

"let's start!"
