"Wake up, little brat."

"Hey, brother, let him sleep. He came back so late last night, let him sleep a little longer."

"Why is he sleeping? He has to go to the factory to work after dinner."

The knocking on the door and the conversation outside the room woke up Wei Jiang who was sleeping.

Hearing the conversation between his father and cousin outside the door, Wei Jiang yawned, rubbed his eyes and sat up from the bed.

"Get up, go wash up now."

Wei Jiang had just gotten up and his voice was very hoarse. He didn't care whether the two people outside the door could hear him. Wei Jiang picked up the cup of water on the bedside table, drank it all to moisten his throat, then stood up and walked into the bathroom.

Due to lack of sleep, Wei Jiang looked listless as he sat at the dining table.

"Xiao Jiang, why don't you not go to the factory today? It won't hurt to take a day off."

Uncle Wu Qisi was sitting opposite Wei Jiang and made a suggestion after observing Wei Jiang's condition.

Wei Jiang suddenly looked up, but before he could refuse, his father Wei Yonghe's voice rang out.

"Qisi, don't spoil this kid."

"I came home late at night, so I can't blame others for not getting enough rest."

"We agreed to work in the factory, so you can't be too lenient with him."

Wei Yonghe's serious attitude made Wu Qisi feel a little unbelievable.

Wei Jiang obviously did not tell Wei Yonghe about what happened in the factory, and his uncle actually thought that Wei Jiang was helping him.

"Yes, it's okay, just take a nap at noon."

Noticing Wei Jiang winking at him, Wu Qisi smiled and nodded without saying anything more.

After breakfast, Wei Jiang still drove his own Wuling mini on the way to Siming Company.

Of course, Wei Jiang chose to get in the car and fall asleep, leaving everything to the on-board terminal.

Wei Jiang was busy in the laboratory for the whole morning.

The prototype of the Dark Star battle suit has been manufactured, and Wei Jiang also has to deal with secondary tasks.

Find a new path for product upgrades for Siming Company.

After clearing the data from the laboratory equipment, Wei Jiang sat in front of the computer editing documents throughout the morning.

At lunch time, Wei Jiang walked into his uncle Wu Qisi's office with a printed paper document.

Placing the document on the tea table where Wu Qisi was drinking tea, Wei Jiang said to Wu Qisi mysteriously:

"Uncle, I'm giving you a gift, take a look."

The document cover was blank and no information was listed. Wu Qisi picked up the document with some confusion.

There are many things about his nephew that he cannot understand.

Wu Qisi was very much looking forward to the gift that Wei Jiang would give. He believed that what Wei Jiang would give must be something extraordinary.

"I'll have to take a closer look."

Opening the cover, Wu Qisi read half a page of paper, then suddenly raised his head and looked at Wei Jiang.

"it is true?"

Wu Qisi was so surprised that his voice even trembled with emotion.

"Of course, the samples are in the lab."

Wei Jiang nodded calmly and explained.

A new alloy formula

"This alloy has good temperature resistance, high strength, is not easy to wear, and has good durability."

「Suitable for the manufacture of high-performance brake calipers, brake discs, and brake pads」

The rustling sound of papers flipping continued, and Wu Qisi flipped the documents faster and faster.

He finished reading the document of more than ten pages in just a few minutes.

After reading the document, Wu Qisi could no longer suppress his inner excitement. He stood up, holding the document in his left hand and his arm with his right hand.

"Come on, let's go to the lab. I want to see the samples."

The teacup in Wei Jiang's hand was almost knocked over, and he shook his head helplessly and put the teacup down.

"Don't worry, the sample won't run away."

Wu Qisi was not as calm as Wei Jiang. His mind was now full of the alloy formula that Wei Jiang had come up with.

Having been engaged in the manufacturing of auto and motorcycle parts for more than ten years, I am extremely familiar with the principles and performance parameters of vehicle braking systems.

Wei Jiang was amazed by the performance parameters of the alloy brake pads listed in the document.

You should know that the reason why Siming Company was abandoned by car manufacturers is that the performance of the metal brake pads manufactured by the company could not keep up with the development of the industry, and car manufacturers did not want them even though they supplied them to cheap cars.

Wei Jiang's documents showed him a hopeful path, how could Wu Qisi not be excited.

"Stop dawdling. Hurry up and go, go, go."

Being dragged and pulled by their uncle Wu Qisi the whole time, the two came to the laboratory that Wei Jiang had occupied alone for a month.

"Where is it? Where is the sample? Bring it out now."

Looking at his anxious uncle, Wei Jiang opened the laboratory safe and took out a small piece of blue-black alloy.

"Well, that's it."

"New alloy with high strength and good temperature resistance."

"I have done tests and found that it does not deform after long-term friction. It is an excellent material for automobile brake pads."

Wu Qisi snatched the blue-black alloy as thick as a finger from Wei Jiang's hand and played with it in his hand as if he was looking at a gold bar.

An hour later, at the strong request of his uncle Wu Qisi, Wei Jiang conducted a complete alloy performance test in front of the other party.

The test results were consistent with the test parameters Wei Jiang had previously tested during the manufacturing of battle suit components.

This alloy formula is a byproduct of Wei Jiang's production of DSS091 alloy.

Due to a careless mistake in the manufacturing process, this alloy appeared in front of Wei Jiang.

After testing this defective product, Wei Jiang found that this alloy was very suitable for making metal brake pads.

So this alloy now appears in Wu Qisi's hands.

Wu Qisi stared at the data in the table on the computer with excitement. Wei Jiang leaned on the laboratory table and said with a smile:
"It's best to apply for the alloy formula patent as soon as possible, so that the company's researchers can start developing new products."

"Uncle, here we have the first product after the company's reform."

"Based on this alloy, as long as we continue to invest in research and development, Siming Company will have a bright future."

Wei Jiang observed his uncle's expression as he spoke, and the expression on his uncle's face became more and more vivid as Wei Jiang spoke.

Noticing this, Wei Jiang decided to give his uncle some more encouragement.

“The largest automotive brake system R&D and manufacturing company in the East.”

"Uncle, how does this title sound?"

Wu Qisi's eyes shone with a burning light. What a wonderful fantasy.

"Good, good, good!"

"This title suits Siming."

Looking at the blue-black alloy as thick as his fingers in his hand, Wu Qisi kept muttering.

Suddenly, Wu Qisi turned around and hugged Wei Jiang. His arms were so strong that Wei Jiang almost suffocated.

"Xiao Jiang, thank you!"

"Siming Company has a future because of you."

Letting go of Wei Jiang, Wu Qisi looked at Wei Jiang seriously, his eyes moving as if he had made some decision.

"I will personally give you another 4% of Siming Company's shares!"

"You deserve this! Without you, Siming Company would be nothing. The only outcome would be the closure of the factory."

Looking at the sincere eyes of the man in front of him, Wei Jiang hesitated.

4% plus the 46% that had been transferred to his name before, this is really 50%.

"Forget it, it doesn't matter if it's more or less."

"As long as Siming makes money in the future, I can get dividends"

Wu Qisi shook his head and said firmly:
“No, you should take 50%!”

"I can't take advantage of you in good conscience."

"If you have money and skills, you can make money by investing in any auto parts factory."

"Siming has gained a lot from this factory reform, so I think you should get these shares!"

"As long as Siming has a bright future, I am willing to give up a little bit of shares."

Seeing that Wei Jiang wanted to say something else, Wu Qisi raised his hand to refuse.

"Stop talking. Just like that, we'll sign the share transfer contract this afternoon."

In the afternoon, the documents regarding the share transfer of Siming Company were submitted to the relevant departments for expedited processing.

Wei Jiang originally planned to say goodbye to his cousin's family after handing over the alloy formula to Siming Company.

He had originally planned to continue southward with his father, but now they could only postpone it for a few more days. In the afternoon, Wei Jiang called together the laboratory researchers and returned the right to use the laboratory to them.

Before Siming Company develops new products, it must make these people truly familiar with the operation of laboratory equipment, as the future of Siming depends on these people.

At around 5 pm, Wei Jiang packed his things and got in the car to go home.

He has completed all his tasks at Siming Company, and going home to take care of his father will be his next main task.

"Car owner, I would like to remind you that an encrypted email was received in the special mailbox last night."

Wei Jiang was in a good mood, staring at the ninth set of radio gymnastics movements on the screen of his mobile phone.

"Oh, open it and take a look."

The so-called special mailbox is the only channel for Wei Jiang to passively receive official information.

The email decrypted using a special algorithm is opened on the car's central control screen.

"Ms. Red Star, please tell me sincerely! Does the aircraft in the video below belong to you?"

After reading the text, Wei Jiang roughly guessed the purpose of Zhang Gang's email.

Click to play the attached video. In the dark night, two circles of blue light appear in the video. Under the blue light, the pure black flat body is faintly visible.

Noticing a Type 20 fighter jet in the background, Wei Jiang realized the time when the video was shot.

"The photo is not good-looking, bad review!"

After complaining, Wei Jiang understood why Zhang Gang asked him so anxiously.

The disturbance caused by the manta ray on Blue Planet last night was definitely not small. It is definitely unprecedented for a manta ray to stir up the situation on Blue Planet on its own.

Today, Wei Jiang’s mobile phone was continuously pushed news and videos about UFOs.

Most of the videos come from the Internet, and the majority are videos about daily life.

The air compression caused by the manta ray's high-speed flight forms a high-temperature red light, causing a huge sensation on the blue planet.

"Um"

Putting aside the jumping movements of the ninth set of radio gymnastics in his mind, Wei Jiang thought about how to respond to Zhang Gang's question.

The material transportation task in the Manta Ray Level 5 enhanced mission determines that Wei Jiang must transport a large amount of things to outer space next.

This is also an urgent problem that needs to be solved in the current development of Dongda aerospace.

“Do we have to cooperate?”

When Manta Ray reached level 3, the authorities were already aware that Wei Jiang possessed advanced technology, and now there seemed no need to conceal it.

Having made up his mind, Wei Jiang thought about the problems he might face next. Some things really required the help of official resources.

"Stop by the roadside and help me contact Zhang Gang."

"receive."

It was the rush hour after get off work and the road was crowded with vehicles. The onboard terminal took several minutes to find a parking lot and drive in.

Beep, beep, beep
After dialing and waiting for a while, a hoarse voice came out, and Wei Jiang confirmed that the voice was Zhang Gang.

"Ms. Red Star, I finally got in touch with you."

Looking at the private cars coming in and out of the parking lot, Wei Jiang answered with a calm smile.

"Hello, General Zhang, please take a rest."

Zhang Gang had no intention of greeting Wei Jiang at all, and asked questions anxiously to confirm the answers from Wei Jiang.

"Ms. Red Star, what happened in Tokyo last night."

"Did you do this?"

When the question was asked, Wei Jiang could even hear a slight tremor in the other party's words.

Wei Jiang could understand Zhang Gang's behavior, and admitted it directly without hesitation.

"It's me. I was bored yesterday so I went to play with Xiao Ri Zi and Chou Ying."

"I'm quite satisfied with the result, hehe."

An exclamation came from the loudspeaker. As a lieutenant general in the military, Wei Jiang's frank and calm admission made Zhang Gang's tense heartstrings fall sharply.

"what!"

"Red Star, how is it possible?!"

"How did you do that?!"

"Oh my god~"

The last dialect sentence made Wei Jiang couldn't help laughing out loud.

General Zhang's hometown should be in the northwest. Wei Jiang has heard of this northwestern dialect before.

"The technology is not mature yet, and last night was a test."

"What's wrong? Didn't you cause any trouble with the authorities?"

After talking it out, Wei Jiang no longer had any concerns. He was more curious about the official attitude towards this matter.

"Is it the Red Star?"

A strange and gentle male voice was heard. Wei Jiang frowned. There were other people around Zhang Gang.

"Yes, Minister."

From Zhang Gang's response, Wei Jiang judged that the visitor should be of high status.

"Hongxing, hello, I'm Tang Wu, do you need me to introduce myself?"

A gentle male voice took the initiative to announce the name, but did not mention any other background.

Tang Wu? Sounds familiar.

Wei Jiang did not respond directly to the other party. He picked up his phone and searched for the name.

Professor of the Academy of Performing Arts, when he saw the search results, Wei Jiang knew there must be a problem.

"Wu in martial arts?"

If you are not sure, just ask directly.

The man laughed a few times and then explained:
"The noon of the morning."

He modified the text in the search box and searched again. When he saw the first search result, Wei Jiang's eyes widened.

Shit! No wonder it sounds familiar!

Isn't this the number one person in the East University military? !
"Ah, Minister Tang, hello. It's a pleasure."

It’s not Wei Jiang’s fault for being too excited. It’s mainly because he has never spoken to someone of such a high status in his life.

You know, he is a master who controls 200 million troops!
There is no one on Blue Star who controls more military forces than him.

“It’s a pleasure to communicate with you.”

"Can I ask where you are now?"

This question made Wei Jiang hesitate. Brother, you may have a high status, but you can't ask questions that involve my privacy so deeply.

"Can I not answer this?"

"Hahaha, sure. I just want to make sure you're safe now."

"The entire Blue Star is searching for information about you now. Some people are almost going crazy because of what happened last night."

"As long as you are in the country, your personal safety will definitely not be a problem."

Wei Jiang’s refusal did not cause Tang Wu to feel disgusted. Instead, he took the initiative to explain to Wei Jiang.

Tang Wu's attitude made Wei Jiang lower his guard a little.

“It’s in the country.”

"As for my personal safety, it should be fine. I still have this confidence."

"I didn't tell you because I didn't want anyone to disturb my peaceful life."

"Our previous cooperation model was very good, and I hope it can be maintained forever."

"You think so?"

As more super equipment associated with the Red Star vest is exposed, the Red Star becomes more important in the eyes of the authorities.

The authorities are definitely conducting controllability assessments, risk factor assessments, and benefit factor assessments at all times.

Wei Jiang's question caused silence on the other end of the call.

What Wei Jiang said was to express his personal attitude, on the one hand to continue to maintain independence, and on the other hand to avoid unnecessary official suspicion of himself.

"Red Star, what do you want?"

"With technological manufacturing capabilities that surpass the top level of humanity, you can even crush all the forces on Blue Star."

"So, what do you want?"

Tang Wu did not answer Wei Jiang's question, but instead asked Wei Jiang a question that he thought was crucial.
