Chapter 111: Taim Bank
Tang Xin.

Lin Xian looked at the strange name on the strange avatar...

"Who is this? Is there a girl like this in our class?"

He looked again carefully.

The girl’s avatar was a cute kitty cat, and her name in the group was Tang Xin. Lin Xian had no impression of this name.

He wanted to open the QQ space to look at the girl's photo, but found that the space was also locked.

So I asked Gao Yang directly on WeChat:
"Who is Tang Xin? Why don't I remember this person in my class?"

"It's normal that you don't remember."

Gao Yang replied:
"This girl is a transfer student. She came to school for a few days during the class division in her second year of high school and then went abroad to study. But she had already joined the QQ group at that time... I can't kick her out, right? She has been lurking for so many years and has never appeared. As the group owner, I have forgotten about it."

"Do students who have only been together for a few days like this also have to come to the reunion?"

"Come on, there's nothing wrong with having more people around. Why should we care so much? We've been classmates for a few days anyway, and who knows which girl in the class he's close to! We welcome everyone who comes, we don't need a pair of chopsticks."

Ok.

Since Gao Yang said so, Lin Xian didn't take it to heart.

But I don’t know if he was just being overly sentimental.

I always wondered why this girl specifically mentioned her name when replying, as if she was speaking to herself.

However, Lin Xian really had no impression of this girl.

In his heart, he didn't think that classmates who he had only known for a few days were classmates...

After thinking about it, Lin Xian turned off his phone and did not reply in the group.

Maybe they just said it casually and there is no special meaning.

It’s better not to be so self-indulgent.

“I don’t know how many people will come to this high school reunion after five years of graduation.”

To be honest, Lin Xian is quite looking forward to this class reunion.

Many of my good friends back then have less contact after going to college, and I really want to see them.

After getting up and packing.

Lin Xian came to the company and interviewed some recent graduates.

His team has a huge amount of business, and Zhao Yingjun also said that he wanted to expand the team to about thirty or forty people, all of which would be decided by Lin Xian himself.

The interview went slower than Lin Xian expected...

But he himself had just graduated from college half a year ago, so he understood the difficulties faced by these fresh graduates. So he listened to each college student's introduction patiently and said that he would inform them of the results within 2 days, whether they passed or not, so that they would not wait in vain.

There were about seven or eight people he liked, and after considering them for the next two days, he sent them offers.

After finishing the interview, Lin Xian returned to his private office, made a cup of tea, and prepared to take a break.

He sat in the soft boss chair, holding a cup of hot tea, looking at the hustle and bustle of traffic outside the window.

The business district where MX Company is located is still very prosperous.

There are also many office buildings of famous companies and headquarters of some commercial banks around, and each of their buildings is very grand.

bank……

Lin Xian recalled what CC said in his dream yesterday.

Thame Bank.

Lin Xian remembered this name.

CC said that those hafnium alloy safes were shipped out from this bank.

For unknown reasons, the Tam Bank went bankrupt and issued a notice, giving the owners of the safe deposit boxes a deadline to collect the contents of the safe deposit boxes.

The deadline is August 2624, 8.

If no one comes to claim the safe by this date... then I'm sorry, it will have to be disposed of as garbage, so those safes will appear in the garbage disposal plant in the dream.

[So when was this Tam Bank established? ]

If that safe is really his.

The time when he stored the safe should be after the establishment of Tam Bank. Although the possibility of the bank being acquired, renamed, and reorganized several times cannot be ruled out...but the name of Tam Bank is indeed a clue.

Lin Xian picked up his phone and typed "Tem Bank" into the search engine.

As expected...

Not a single relevant result.

"Tyme Bank."

Lin Xian tried hard to recall this name...

When robbing a bank in the first dream, due to the perspective and the fact that the street lights and bank sign were not on, Lin Xian really couldn't remember the name of the bank. He only knew its location.

"Wait, it looks like the sign is in English."

Lin Xian also drove CC there once.

Now that I think about it, it seems that those bank sign lights that are not lit are indeed in English, and the word "BANK" ends at the end, which means bank.

That front...

"Tyme."

"TIME."

Lin Xian realized:

"TIMEBANK, time bank, or translated as time bank!"

I see……

Lin Xian figured it out
Why is there not a single penny or even anything related to money in that bank warehouse?

Because it is not a proper bank for depositing money!

Its main business should be the safes that can be used for long-term storage, with a shelf life of decades, hundreds of years, or even thousands of years.

This is the main business of [Tyme Bank]!

"interesting."

Lin Xian truly felt the diversity of species. There actually is such a bank in the world, and it can last for 600 years.

Although...it eventually closed down.

He opened his phone again and searched again for words such as time bank, time bank, TIMEBANK, etc.

Still, no relevant results.

What is displayed on the webpage are some messed up game settings and film and television works. There is no such bank in reality.

"We can only guess that in 2023, the Tam Bank has not yet been established, has not yet started operations, and those safes have not yet started manufacturing."

This theory makes sense.

But come to think of it… "Maybe soon."

Lin Xian crossed his legs and looked at the headquarters of major commercial banks standing across the street.

He felt that Tam Bank should be established soon.

In the first dream, Big Face Cat said that this kind of hafnium alloy safe is not common at all, and he has never seen it outside; CC also confirmed this, which means that hafnium alloy safes may not become mainstream due to cost reasons.

The "Time Bank" is a gimmick in itself. If they claim in their publicity that all the safes in the bank are made of hafnium alloy, then that is obviously a very brilliant marketing and fits their product positioning.

"maybe……"

Lin Xian looked up at the warm sun in the sky:

"Who knows, it may soon be time for me to deposit the safe."

He wasn't sure how long that would be.

A few months later?
One year later?
But anyway, it should be soon.

In fact, Lin Xian doesn’t care much about this.

Because he had already written a letter to his future self and imprinted his thoughts on himself, no matter when and where he encountered this hafnium alloy safe, he would definitely set the password to 29990203.

This is enough.

With this time-space butterfly, as long as you remain steadfast, the password of the safe 600 years from now will most likely become this.

Ding-a-ling, ding-a-ling, ding-a-ling————

Behind.

The landline phone on the desk rang. Lin Xian looked at the caller ID and saw it was the short number of Zhao Yingjun's office.

Pick up the phone.

After picking up the phone, Zhao Yingjun's voice immediately came from the microphone:

"Lin Xian, come to my office."

……

22nd floor, Zhao Yingjun’s office.

"come in."

With a bang, the heavy double-layer password door opened and Lin Xian walked into the office.

Everything here remains the same as always.

The thin layer of dust on the coffee table and the sofa seemed to have become thicker, and the documents on the huge desk were still messy and piled into several piles.

Lin Xian always felt that Zhao Yingjun's office seemed to have some magical power, as if it could freeze time and make everything here remain unchanged forever.

If I have to say it...

The leaves of some green plants have turned yellow and dry. I wonder if Zhao Yingjun, who is so busy, has time to water them.

She really needed a secretary more than anyone else, but she resisted having a secretary more than anyone else.

It seems... that little secretary really made her sad, so much so that it became difficult for her to trust others.

thump.

Zhao Yingjun took a sip of the brewed tea and placed the glass cup on the table:

"Lin Xian, please prepare a document about Rhine Cat for me. Explain its image, style, design background, etc. I will show it to the composer when I meet with him later."

"Although the Rhine Cat doll is very successful and popular, in the eyes of those composers... there may still be some misunderstandings about the image of the Rhine Cat."

composer?
Lin Xian recalled that a few days ago, Zhao Yingjun said that he would attend a composer's party and then find one of the composers to discuss writing a MV theme song for Rhine Cat.

Looking at it this way...

I guess we didn’t reach an agreement with the composer last time.

"Didn't you reach an agreement with that composer last time?" Lin Xian asked.

She nodded, lowered her head and smiled:

"That gentleman thought our Rhine Cat image was too childish. He said he had never written a theme song for a cartoon character. Anyway... he politely declined."

So childish...

Although it is a bit unpleasant to hear someone say this about Rhine cats, it is also true.

Seeing that Lin Xian didn't say anything, Zhao Yingjun smiled:

"It's nothing, it's normal. Every composer is good at different styles and has different interests. Collaboration should be a two-way process."

"But there is no problem with your Rhine Cat. Whether it is the low-age market or the mature market, the sales and popularity are very high. The market is the best proof. I think if one day we can no longer survive in the cosmetics market, we may be able to transform into a toy company."

Lin Xian knew she was joking, so he didn't continue.

Lin Xian was very clear that Zhao Yingjun would definitely not transform MX into a toy company.

Recalling the dream, 600 years later, the MX building that suppressed the steel behemoth and broke through the sky...

Lin Xian thinks that it is possible to transform into a super heavy industry giant.

"Don't worry about the MV theme song. We still have many candidate composers to discuss with."

Zhao Yingjun picked up the flower teacup, took another sip, and said softly:
"In fact, it's easy to talk to second-tier composers, and even some first-tier composers, as long as the money is in place, there's no problem. But I still hope to find the best composer to compose for Rhine Cats, I think it's still necessary to fight for it."

"I called you here today because I want you to prepare all kinds of information about Rhine Cats. When we discuss with top composers later, we can help them understand Rhine Cats better."

"Okay." Lin Xian agreed directly.

At this moment, he began to understand how Chu Shanhe doted on his daughter.

He also loves Rhine Cat and wants her to have the best of everything.

……

After returning to the office, Lin Xian sorted out all the information about Rhine Cat, especially its image and design background, and then sent the electronic file to Zhao Yingjun.

Then he went off work.

Today in my dream, I still have very important things to do.

No. 314 Waste Treatment Plant,

23:19 Four garbage trucks arrived at the station,

Tens of thousands of books soaked in water were on the bus.

It is a treasure trove of history and knowledge!

"I hope I can find the two books I want most among these soaked books."

After Lin Xian finished washing up, he turned off the lights and lay down on the bed.

He closed his eyes and turned over.

"set off!"
