The unparalleled talent of the country started from Harbin Institute of Technology

In early April 1993, in a large compound outside the Third Ring Road of Beijing.

This is the headquarters of the Beijing Special Operations Department.

The news had already reached Du Xiangdong's ears.

They were holding a meeting, and because it concerned Wang Duoyu, they dared not be negligent.

"I've already been called from above, and they've ordered us to identify the person who delivered the message within two days."

Aside from Yuan Zuliang and Wang Duoyu, only the relevant officials of the Harbin Railway Department knew about Wang Duoyu's purchase of train tickets.

In addition, Liu Deben knew that Wang Duoyu was going to the capital, but he did not know whether the latter would take a train or a plane.

Everyone in the conference room looked grave, pondering who the traitor was.

Meanwhile, a meeting was also taking place inside the Wenjin Street compound.

Fang Lihe and others were present, along with An Dehai, a leader from the Civil Aviation Administration.

Previously, the leader of the Civil Aviation Administration was Li Zhongxi, who also helped with the communication when Northern Airlines was established.

"Professor Wang, your personal attempt to acquire Pioneer Technology Manufacturing Plant is definitely against the rules."

Andekaido:

"I already know the details. How about this, our Civil Aviation Administration will take a stake, just like with Northern Airlines, holding 30% of the shares, how about that?"

Wang Duoyu immediately asked back:

"Leader An, are you sure your Civil Aviation Administration can provide the same proportion of investment?"

The investment in the large long-range passenger aircraft project is at least 30 billion yuan.

Based on a 30% investment share, the Civil Aviation Administration would need to contribute at least 9 billion yuan.

"We genuinely can't provide that, but Professor Wang's operating rights to Pioneer Technology are definitely worth that price."

An Dehai shook his head.

He explained the pros and cons to Wang Duoyu.

Pioneer Technology is not an ordinary company; it's impossible for it to be privatized so easily.

After all, the technology involved is extremely important.

"If that's the case, then forget it. Just pretend I was never here today," Wang Duoyu said directly.

To be honest, he was very clear about the situation of Pioneer Technology.

But the Civil Aviation Administration can't just take advantage of this for free.

Pioneer Technology will definitely be able to make money in the future. The key point is that Wang Duoyu wants the power to control the narrative.

Otherwise, he would have had no reason to acquire Pioneer Technology.

It's precisely because, under the Harbin Institute of Technology, too many people oppose the establishment of this large long-range passenger aircraft project.

Specifically, Wang Duoyu had no idea when his influence within Harbin Institute of Technology had plummeted.

Otherwise, why would things have come to this?
Seeing that Wang Duoyu was about to give up, Fang Lihe quickly spoke up as a peacemaker, advising Wang Duoyu not to get angry.

"I'm not angry!"

Wang Duoyu shook his head and said:

"As our ancestors said, it's easier to deal with the King of Hell than with his minions; if it weren't for Pioneer Technology..."

"The large long-range passenger aircraft project was approved long ago. Now you're doing this again, unwilling to contribute funds, yet trying to take away my power."

"Fine, I'm tired too, and you're all tired too, so let's just leave it at that, do whatever you want."

This time, no matter how Fang Li tried to persuade him, it was no use; Wang Duoyu had already left.

Bang!
The conference room door was closed.

An Dehai and the others looked at each other in bewilderment.

"No way, isn't that incredibly rude? Weren't we supposed to be talking? How come he flipped the table so early?"

As a leader of the Civil Aviation Administration, An Dehai was furious.

Because Wang Duoyu was so disrespectful to him.

Fang Lihe glared at him:
"Comrade An Dehai, I already warned you before to tone it down. Professor Wang Duoyu really dislikes this kind of thing."

"Then what's his motivation? To make money? Isn't what he makes enough for him to spend?"

"Bullshit! Does he need to make money from your commercial airliners? How much profit can airliners even make?"

Before An Dehai could speak, Fang Lihe continued:

"Let me tell you the truth, Professor Wang Duoyu has no shortage of money. Do you know how much money he personally contributed before the Nantianmen Project was established? Now he contributes at least 10 billion RMB every year."

"Conservatively speaking, he earned more than 100 billion yuan last year. Do you think he would even look at the small amount of money your civil aviation industry makes?"

"He was willing to sit down and talk with us because he trusted we wouldn't cause him any trouble, but look what you've done."

An Dehai was dumbfounded and remained speechless for a long time.

No. 87, Zhongguancun West Street.

After Wang Duoyu returned, he played with the children for a while, then had lunch, and then said he would take them out for a stroll in the afternoon.

The children immediately cheered and jumped for joy.

In the afternoon, Wang Duoyu took the children to the ruins of the Old Summer Palace.

Then we took a stroll around the Summer Palace.

The capital city has countless famous historical sites and scenic spots.

The next day, Fang Lihe paid a personal visit, and An Dehai came along as well.

Inside the study, An Dehai spoke sincerely:
"Professor Wang, I was wrong yesterday, but the Civil Aviation Administration wants 30% of the shares; that's the regulation. Otherwise..."

"We're not taking these shares to cause you trouble, but to help you complete the acquisition smoothly."

Wang Duoyu is not so easily fooled.

After the other person finished speaking, he asked directly:
"In that case, can your Civil Aviation Administration come up with an investment of nine billion yuan? We can't just give you shares and expect you to do nothing, can we?"

"If that's the case, I might as well start my own company."

The domestic civil aviation passenger aircraft manufacturing industry was completely nonexistent.

Currently, there is only one company like Pioneer Technology.

The reason An Dehai insisted on taking this 30% stake was simply to increase the Civil Aviation Administration's say.

But unfortunately, their department simply couldn't come up with the investment.

That's where the contradiction lies.

Wang Duoyu was naturally unwilling to pay this money, since the other party was still causing him trouble.

Therefore, the negotiations between the two sides ended in discord once again.

Wang Duoyu was too lazy to talk anymore, and that afternoon he took Liu Xiaoli and the others back to Harbin by plane.

After returning to Harbin this time, he tried his best not to leave again.

Meanwhile, the large long-range passenger aircraft project was put on hold.

But no one expected that in less than three days, Fang Lihe would personally come to Harbin and say that Wang Duoyu could acquire Pioneer Technology.

There are no other conditions attached.

"really?"

Fang Lihe nodded seriously, "Yes, it has been approved from above."

Wang Duoyu finally smiled:
"That's good. I need to complete the name change procedures as soon as possible and then start the project. I guess Xiao Shu can't wait any longer."

Shu Biaoyin really couldn't wait any longer.

After all, the A380 passenger plane project abroad has already started research, it's just a matter of various adjustments and refinements.

Why was it delayed for so long before being released to the market?
After all, from 1994 to 2005, a period of eleven years, foreigners' technological capabilities didn't require such a long time.

This is naturally due to market demand.

In the original timeline, the A380 was at its best-selling during the period from 2010 to 2014.

Thirty A380 passenger planes are produced every year.

The reason is simple: the wave of globalization at that time was more intense and passionate.

At that time, more than 100 million people in China regularly traveled to various parts of the world, which represented a huge market.

Wang Duoyu had also read the relevant news; most of Emirates Airlines' passenger planes are A380s.

The behemoth-like passenger planes have indeed allowed Emirates Airlines to carve out a path in the global civil aviation industry.

Large, long-range passenger aircraft can only demonstrate their advantages in an era of increasingly interconnected global economies.

Otherwise, no airline could afford to maintain such a gas guzzler.

Wasn't the Concorde a pretty awesome airliner back in the day?

Later, it withdrew from the market because of reasons such as high fuel consumption, inability to recoup costs, and excessive noise, which forced it to withdraw from the market.

For airlines, the best commercial passenger aircraft are not necessarily the fastest or the biggest, but rather the most suitable.

For example, on ultra-long-haul flights from Guangzhou to Los Angeles, there weren't many domestic passengers traveling to Los Angeles in 1993.

Therefore, operating such a route is very likely to result in losses.

If it were thirty years from now, even with multiple airlines competing for this route, tickets would easily sell out, and a single trip could easily earn over one or two million RMB.

This spacetime is very different from the original spacetime.

The emergence of Wang Duoyu has already driven the rapid development of the global economy.

In particular, the number of products exported from China to the world is increasing.

It is generally foreseeable that the tourism industry will gradually flourish in the country.

The market gradually takes shape over time.

On the other hand, the domestic civil aircraft manufacturing technology is indeed quite average.

Therefore, there is not much of a problem in establishing this large-scale long-range passenger aircraft project now.

With the approval from above and the push from Fang Lihe, Wang Duoyu successfully acquired Pioneer Technology Manufacturing Plant in less than a week.

Shu Biaoyin quickly took the project proposal to Wang Duoyu and said he was ready to invest.

"No, your proposal is too hasty."

Wang Duoyu only glanced at it for about ten minutes before dismissing the other party's plan as utterly worthless.

"I'm giving you six months to produce a detailed plan as soon as possible."

"There are too many technical challenges to consider when developing large, long-range passenger aircraft. Your research team needs to be assembled as quickly as possible within six months."

With Wang Duoyu overseeing things, Shu Biaoyin worked with even more enthusiasm.

The matter concerning Pioneer Technology Manufacturing Plant has come to an end.

However, there has been no news yet about the incident in which Wang Duoyu was attacked on the train.

Wang Duoyu did not urge him, nor did he hold out any hope.

After all, the longer the interval, the less likely it is to be detected.

As April drew to a close, Zheng Baoyin finally gave a reply.

"Uncle, it's a joint operation by the CIA and the FBI, both of them..."

Wang Duoyu held the phone and nodded silently.

After Zheng Baoyin finished speaking, he then spoke:

"Now that we've identified who it is, the wronged should be held accountable, Bao Yin, you know what to do next, right?"

"Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely handle this matter well and won't let anyone suspect us."

Wang Duoyu naturally didn't believe this.

If there were no doubts, then so many things wouldn't have happened.

Wang Duoyu hopes that the evidence will not point to him and Want Want Group.

In short, we must do it swiftly and decisively, leaving no room for error.

"Money can move mountains!"

This principle doesn't need much explanation from Wang Duoyu; Zheng Baoyin certainly understands it.

Miami, USA, the base of the Anka mercenary group.

"Andy, have we rested enough? There's a really good project coming up recently, and I think we should take it."

Cameron said with a smile.

They made over 60 million US dollars on a previous trip to South Africa.

After returning to the United States, I spent a lot of money recruiting and training soldiers, as well as taking time off. Now I only have less than 20 million US dollars left.

Sitting around doing nothing won't work; to pull off a big heist, you need to build a cohesive team first.

There just happens to be a mission in the dark world that's perfect for their Anka mercenary group.

Assassinate Daniel!
He is the former head of the Los Angeles police department and now the head of the intelligence department.

The mission reward is eight million US dollars.

After hearing the details of the mission, Andy looked completely puzzled:
"How could an intelligence chief be worth eight million dollars? Are you sure you're not mistaken?"

Despite the significant depreciation of the US dollar in recent years, its purchasing power has remained quite strong.

Eight million dollars in purchasing power is still very strong.

If such a sum of money were used to assassinate someone like the vice president, then it would be somewhat understandable.

However, he was only the head of an intelligence department, and a branch office at that, not the headquarters.

"Yes, we've gathered information that Daniel has done something outrageous; he arranged for the assassination of a mathematics professor."

Cameron said:

"This eight million dollars was raised by a group of amateur mathematics experts. It's said that these people are followers of that mathematics professor."

Andy's eyes widened immediately:
"F**K, Cameron, are you out of your mind? Or am I? A math professor with followers?"

It's one thing if there are believers.

The key point is that these believers are actually willing to offer eight million US dollars as a reward for assassinating someone?

It sounds quite fantastical.

Cameron shrugged and said:

"I don't know the details either, but it's easy to find out. If we want to take this mission, we should hurry, or someone else will snatch it away."

Assassinating one person can yield a profit of eight million dollars.

That's too easy to get.

"catch!"

Andy didn't hesitate for long and quickly decided to take on the task.

So they arranged for the two strongest members of their mercenary group to go.

He flew directly from Miami to Los Angeles, then went to the FBI's Los Angeles field office to assassinate Daniel.

Los Angeles.

Daniel had already learned half a day earlier that he had been targeted for assassination with a price tag.

"Heh, you're really rich!"

With a cold laugh, Daniel remained fearless.

In a country where capital is all-powerful, Daniel believed he could easily overcome this challenge.

why?
Not just anyone can easily infiltrate the Los Angeles police station.

On the other hand, Daniel has accumulated a considerable fortune over the years.

The fact that he has survived for so many years means that he must be quite capable.

Unfortunately, Daniel seems to have underestimated the dark world of today.

Central, Hong Kong.

Zhao Yongming lives on the 36th floor of a high-rise residential building located in a bustling downtown area.

This is not the top floor; the highest floor is the forty-second floor.

But for Zhao Yongming, a 36-story building was just right.

He lives here and has never taken the elevator, not because he doesn't want to, but because he needs to use the stairs to exercise.

Keep him vigilant, etc.

Because he was an assassin.

And he was also a freelance assassin.

Eight million dollars? Just for assassinating one person?

That evening, Zhao Yongming received a message, and his pupils suddenly contracted.

The information was sent by his agent, who also collected detailed information about it.

Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately accepted the task.

Eight million dollars was enough to make him risk his life.

However, such a 'simple' assassination mission will inevitably attract a lot of competition.

Therefore, we must act quickly; otherwise, if someone gets there first, it will only make the target more vigilant, making it even more difficult to assassinate them.

After packing his luggage, Zhao Yongming went straight to Kai Tak Airport and took the fastest flight to Los Angeles.

Princeton.

Jacob Brightman received a call from Daniel.

"Why? Why did they contact you directly instead of me?"

"Perhaps they didn't find out you were involved?"

"No, no, no, Daniel, math professors are among the smartest people, not to mention Wang Duoyu has such impressive hacking skills."

"Okay, Jacob, do you think this assassination bounty was really funded by donations from those amateur math experts?"

"I'm not sure either; we'll definitely need to investigate more information before we can analyze it."

Like Jacob Brightman, Daniel firmly believed that Wang Duoyu was an extremely intelligent mathematics professor and would never release such foolish information to the outside world.

The amateur math expert donated money and then issued a mission to assassinate Daniel.

This kind of information is simply an insult to Wang Duoyu's intelligence.

"Never mind all that, Daniel, you need to protect yourself now. Those desperados are still very dangerous."

"Don't worry, Jacob, I have a long life ahead of me."

After hanging up the phone, the two reflected on their actions.

Jacob Brightman even thought of using money to bribe people in the underworld to assassinate Wang Duoyu.
However, this would probably cost a lot of money, right?
In any case, the intelligence agency would never be able to come up with that much funding.

We need to think of another way.

At Los Angeles Airport, after Zhao Yongming got off the plane, he saw two strange figures in front of him.

As a top assassin, Zhao Yongming's sixth sense is extremely accurate.

Perhaps the two people in front are colleagues.

"Don't let me run into you." After leaving the airport, Zhao Yongming went straight to the Los Angeles branch.

Halfway there, his agent had already analyzed the situation for him in detail and reported the target's current location.

"Daniel is extremely vigilant and hasn't left the Los Angeles precinct for two days."

"Therefore, if we want to assassinate them, we must infiltrate the Los Angeles police station."

"By the way, Zhao, do you have any ideas right now?"

Zhao Yongming shook his head, indicating that he needed to go to the Los Angeles branch to check on the situation.

As a result, just as they arrived near the Los Angeles branch and were about to stop to observe, Zhao Yongming suddenly spotted the two familiar figures he had met at the airport in a car ahead.

"Don't stop, keep driving forward."

The agent was very confused, but still obeyed.

Over the years, Zhao Yongming has proven his brilliance.

Therefore, the agent is happy to follow the other party's instructions.

With just one glance at the Los Angeles branch, Zhao Yongming conceived of an assassination plan.

Long-range sniping!

Since the mission requires Daniel to die, how he dies doesn't really matter.

"Okay, I'll find you the best sniper rifle as soon as possible so you can complete your mission quickly."

The agent was overjoyed and quickly expressed his delight.

Zhao Yongming nodded.

If this matter succeeds, all the better; if it fails, then let it be as if it never happened.

The next day arrived in the blink of an eye, in the morning.

About two kilometers away from the Los Angeles branch, Zhao Yongming lay prone on the rooftop, aiming at Daniel's office.

However, Daniel is not currently working near a window, which prevents Zhao Yongming from sniping him remotely.

The drone's sound came again. Zhao Yongming glanced at it and continued aiming.

He was completely disguised, so he wasn't afraid of drones.

Daniel was indeed terrified of death, and he arranged for drones to patrol near the branch office building.

Unfortunately it didn't work.

Under the high-powered scope, Zhao Yongming could clearly see Daniel's figure.

As a top-notch assassin, Zhao Yongming is also a sharpshooter among sharpshooters.

But Daniel hadn't completely stopped yet, and since he was still far from the window, Zhao Yongming couldn't pull the trigger.

At 10:30 a.m., Daniel finally sat down in a meeting room for a meeting.

Despite the fact that the other party was located relatively far inside and there was a wall blocking the way, Zhao Yongming still decisively pulled the trigger.

Zhao Yongming knew very well that the wall was not thick; it was just an ordinary wall, not a load-bearing wall.

Therefore, the bullet could easily penetrate and then accurately hit Daniel.

The moment Daniel collapsed, Zhao Yongming saw it clearly, and he immediately smiled with relief.

He immediately recorded the video, intending to send it to his agent later.

He quickly put away the sniper rifle and then hurriedly left the building.

His fall revealed the results of his years of training.

Walking with incredible speed!

Just as Zhao Yongming left, alarms blared inside the Los Angeles police station building.

No one expected that someone could snipe Daniel from a distance.

Even Director Jack Wayne was now pale with fright.

He and Daniel were mortal enemies, but he never imagined that Daniel would die such a tragic death in front of him.

Does this also mean that if he gets involved in cases related to Wang Duoyu, he might be assassinated by Wang Duoyu or his 'followers' who pay for an assassination?
Fake!

"Hurry, hurry, go after them right now! We have to catch the murderer!"

Jack Wayne was terrified, and his voice trembled as he spoke.

Everyone in the conference room seemed to wake from a dream, and they moved away from the window in great fear.

There's really no need for that; after all, their lives aren't worth eight million dollars.

In New York, Zheng Baoyin saw the video and learned the exact news that Daniel had died.

"This is really weird. Are these amateur math experts really that amazing?"

Zheng Baoyin couldn't understand what those amateur math experts were after.
These people have never even met Wang Duoyu, so why are they willing to spend so much money to hire someone to assassinate Daniel?

And where did they get this information from?
"Mr. Zheng, you probably don't know how fanatical those people are."

Allen Costa smiled and explained:

"Within our Velociraptor Fund, there are many mathematics experts, all of whom are very wealthy, but those amateur mathematics experts are not much less so."

“I interact with these people quite often, and I know they greatly admire the professor.”

"The repeated attacks on the professor have pushed amateur mathematics experts to their breaking point."

After hearing Allen Costa's explanation, Zheng Baoyin was also dumbfounded.

There's such a hidden story?
He hadn't expected his uncle to be so powerful and influential.

Then he couldn't help but recall a remark his cousin, Wang Junhong, had made during a casual conversation:

Those who don't study mathematics see their father as narrow-mindedly as frogs in a well seeing the moon.

Having studied mathematics, I saw my father as an ant reaching for the blue sky.

On many formal occasions, many of the world's top mathematicians treat Wang Duoyu with great respect, something Zheng Baoyin didn't quite understand before.

Now I understand a little bit more.

But he still couldn't accurately grasp the level at which his uncle was.

Harbin, the Ice City, Harbin Institute of Technology, Weizigou Campus.

Wang Duoyu sat in the study of the villa, engrossed in writing something.

A series of mathematical symbols that ordinary people cannot understand leap off the page.

There are also some symbols at the physical level.

The phone rang suddenly just before dinner time, startling Wang Duoyu from his thoughts.

"Hey, Baoyin, what's up?"

After seeing the caller ID, Wang Duoyu answered the phone.

"Uncle, that person has already gone to the Western Paradise, but he wasn't one of ours."

After a while, Wang Duoyu finally found out who was behind it.

He was quite surprised; were these amateur math experts really that amazing?

This group of people really knows how to spend money; eight million US dollars, they just spent it without hesitation.

"Okay, I got it. Also, keep a close eye on that guy in the east."

Wang Duoyu instructed Zheng Baoyin to resolve the issue of Jacob Brightman as soon as possible.

People like them should report to hell sooner rather than later.

New York, inside a safe house.

After meeting with his agent at the hotel, Zhao Yongming and his agent parted ways.

He has a safe house in New York, which only he knows about, and he's using a fake ID.

Staying in the safe house, he counted his commission; it was indeed a lot.

After deducting his share for his agent, he received $5.2 million.

However, it is not so easy to safely take this money out of the United States.

Therefore, Zhao Yongming will make full preparations.

If more than five million dollars were taken out of the United States unnoticed, the IRS would definitely go crazy.

But Zhao Yongming was an assassin; how could he possibly let the other party collect taxes?
However, when Zhao Yongming was about to drive away with the five million dollars in cash, he was accidentally discovered by a local New York gang.

A gunfight ensued on a road in the outskirts of New York.

The local police quickly learned of the incident and tried to stop it.

Unfortunately, they encountered Zhao Yongming.

He was already carrying a lot of firearms in his car.

In America, as long as there are enough Franklins, you can buy more truth.

It is very easy for ordinary people to buy the truth.

For an assassin like Zhao Yongming, it's even simpler.

Gunfights come and go quickly.

Before the police could send reinforcements, Zhao Yongming had already driven away.

Miami, the base of the Anka mercenary group.

"You guys are idiots! You arrived in Los Angeles so many days early and still got robbed?"

Andy was furious.

Cameron was not surprised, because this mission came quickly and the requirements were urgent.

The most crucial point is that the target of the assassination had a very good source of intelligence.

In other words, this mission could not be kept secret from Daniel at all.

Since it can't be hidden, Daniel will definitely take precautions in advance.

To be able to successfully assassinate someone under such circumstances shows that the person who killed Daniel must be a top-tier assassin.

The two mercenaries sent out by Anka were skilled, but not as well-rounded as the assassins.

"Andy, don't be angry. Let's take on another mission. This time, we're going to the Middle East."

The Middle East is both chaotic and wealthy.

The Dark World issued a quest several months ago.

American arms dealer Allen Pablo has a large transit point in the Middle East.

This transit point is located in a small town called Hanaigan in the Middle East.

This small town is home to more than a thousand soldiers, guarding arms worth hundreds of millions of dollars, as well as a large number of heavy weapons.

In addition to armed helicopters, fighter jets, etc.

Yes, Hanaigan is a secret military base.

The outside world is unaware of this because it is kept very secret.

Elan Pablo used the town of Hanaigan as a transit point to brazenly sell weapons to nearby warlords.

None of this is the point.

Most importantly, there is a vault in the underground of the town of Hanaigan containing a large amount of US dollar cash, gold, and other valuables.

Because after each transaction, the funds are immediately transported back to the town of Hanaigan.

"Cameron, are you crazy? Those are over a thousand heavily armed soldiers, and are you sure the intelligence is correct, just over a thousand?"

Andy's pupils dilated in shock, his face filled with disbelief, and he refused:
"We're not taking this mission. It sounds like it'll make a lot of money, but we don't have the life to collect it."

"I think it would be simpler to take on the mission of assassinating South American drug lord Mogorov and his key henchmen."

Over the past year, the underworld has seen a surge in missions worth hundreds of millions, even tens of millions of dollars.

Missions include assassinations, kidnappings, and accidental deaths.

Suddenly, the entire dark world seemed to become much more active.

Furthermore, in addition to the reward for the task itself, there is even a possibility of unexpected gains during the execution of the task.

For example, American arms dealer Allen Pablo, and drug lord Mogorov.

"No, I still think the mission in the Middle East is better."

Cameron shook his head and said:

"It sounds like drug lords are easier to deal with, but that's not the case. We have received relevant intelligence, and several groups of people have gone to South America to assassinate drug lords, but Mogolov is still living a very comfortable life."

"On the contrary, Elan Pablo, an arms dealer, is easier to assassinate. What we need to do is gather more intelligence, but we must maintain strict secrecy."

In terms of the accuracy and timeliness of intelligence, it's definitely easier for major drug lords to obtain information.

Moreover, if the task is simple, the reward will not be that high.

Seeing that he couldn't persuade the other party, Andy could only shake his head helplessly.

Then they suggested voting.

The Anka mercenary group has now returned to its original size of 120 people.

Everyone here is a highly skilled special forces soldier; it's just that the newly recruited retired special forces soldiers don't have that much money.

The results came out quickly after the vote.

Go to the Middle East!
This is practically suicide!
Andy's vision went black, but the decision was already made, so he decided to buy the weapons and equipment as soon as possible.

This time, we must make the best use of everything and plan everything in advance.

Most importantly, we must not let our competitors steal this task.

Similar to the Anka Mercenary Group, many other organizations, such as the Arctic Fox Mercenary Group, have taken on various missions.

The entire dark world seems to have reached a new peak.

South America, Africa, the Middle East, and other regions have once again descended into chaos.

In May, the weather begins to warm up in the Northern Hemisphere.

The temperature in Harbin has risen considerably, but at night it is still around ten degrees Celsius, and it remains quite cool.

This contrasts sharply with the temperatures in Guangzhou, which range from 27 to 30 degrees Celsius.

Wang Duoyu stood in front of the blackboard in the lecture hall of the School of Mathematics, writing formulas and talking at the same time.

Today is our monthly math sharing session.

As the initiator, and since he happened to be at Harbin Institute of Technology, Wang Duoyu naturally participated.

After a three-hour presentation, Shing-Tung Yau stopped Wang Duoyu as he was about to leave:

"Professor Wang, could we talk in your office?"

"No problem, let's go."

Upon entering the office, Shing-Tung Yau went straight to the point:
"Professor Wang, I wonder what research topic you've been busy with lately? I heard that you almost had an accident when you went to Beijing last month, is that right?"

"It's still the same old project, it's not finished yet. Yes, we did encounter some unexpected problems when we went to Beijing last month. How did Director Qiu find out?"

"My friends in the US called me. To be honest, I can't believe they'd go this far. Although I don't know if Professor Wang is hiding something from me, we're just researchers, how could they dare?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Duoyu felt that Qiu Chengtong was somewhat naive.

Logically speaking, the other person is older than him and must have experienced more things than him.

But unexpectedly, Shing-Tung Yau actually harbored such great 'goodwill' towards the United States.

That's definitely too naive!
"Director Qiu, capital always pursues profit. My actions may have made them feel that their interests were harmed, which is why they did that."

"Ok, I know"

Shing-Tung Yau's expression suddenly turned serious:
"In a couple of days, I'll bring this up with John and William. We need to put some pressure on them, otherwise they'll get too cocky."

Wang Duoyu: “.”

How do a group of math professors put pressure on each other?

Innocent!

If it's amateur science, then perhaps they have nothing to lose and can still succeed.

However, people like Shing-Tung Yau, William Thurston, John Milnor, and Joseph Cohen, well, they don't have that much power.

"Thank you, but there's no need. You should just focus on your research. You don't need to worry about anything else."

Qiu Chengtong wanted to say something more, but Wang Duoyu waved his hand:
“When you first came to Harbin, I told you that you were only responsible for scientific research, and you didn’t need to worry about anything else.”

"The new millennium is approaching, but we still have many unsolved mathematical problems, and we need to cultivate more talent."

These jobs are perfect for you.

Seeing that Wang Duoyu had already gone this far, Qiu Chengtong had no choice but to compromise.

Nobody's stupid; continuing to make trouble won't do any good.

Instead, it will only exacerbate the conflict and strain relationships.

Although Qiu Chengtong had no idea what methods Wang Duoyu would use behind the scenes.

But he knew very well that Wang Duoyu was definitely not one to suffer a loss.

Of course, the world's mathematics center is now in Harbin, and Wang Duoyu has already made a fortune.

No matter how you calculate it, Princeton is losing money hand over fist.

This wave of trouble did not cause any significant disruption at Harbin Institute of Technology, and things quickly returned to calm.

Meanwhile, outside, a storm is brewing.

For example, in the underworld, there is a new assassination mission, and the target happens to be Jacob Brightman.

Wang Duoyu seemed unaware of all this; he remained immersed in his own world, busy deriving the Yang Mills problem.

Canon Corporation, Japan.

"Sell it, this price isn't low already."

Today is the day of Canon's shareholders' meeting, which is the 32nd such meeting in recent times.

Hiroyuki Yoshida, the current head of the Yoshida family, who holds a small number of shares, also attended today's shareholders' meeting.

The reason Canon is where it is today is not actually due to Goro Yoshida's efforts.

"Then let's sell it. 2.2 billion US dollars is already a very high premium."

This is not the point.

The real reason for the sale is that the competitor has arranged for international headhunters to poach their staff, and has already poached nearly one-fifth of their researchers from their research institute.

If the stalemate continues, the other party will eventually give up on the acquisition.

Then Canon's losses will be even more severe.

Selling now while it's still valuable would be a good idea.

In fact, the reason for relinquishing their major shareholder status in Canon was that they had suffered significant losses in their overseas investments and needed to recoup their investment.

In addition, they also control Nikon, so they don't care much about Canon.

That's the thing.

So, the following week, Dylan Dario returned to Tokyo and met with the president of Canon in a conference room at a five-star hotel.

The acquisition price remains unchanged at $2.2 billion, and the payment method is naturally half cash and half stock swap.

Of course, the shares exchanged were from Japanese companies, not American companies. (End of Chapter)
