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

In late March of the year 2000, an explosion occurred in a chemical research laboratory inside the Hidab underground laboratory in the Somali Peninsula.

The explosion did not result in any serious casualties, but the person in charge injured his arm and needs to rest temporarily.

However, the investigation results came out quickly afterward, and the culprit that caused the explosion turned out to be lunar soil brought back from the moon, containing an unknown element.

The findings quickly caught the attention of the main person in charge of the Hideb Laboratory, and Yabo Fein also learned about it immediately.

Now that a new unknown element has emerged, the primary task is to study its main characteristics.

On the other hand, Want Want Group's second lunar landing plan has also been launched, and once everything is ready, it can set off for the moon.

After receiving the report, Wang Duoyu contacted Yabo Fein directly and requested a detailed data report.

They then demanded that the Somali Peninsula send troops to the moon as soon as possible, and that they bring back as much lunar soil as possible to lay the foundation for future lunar development.

"Developing the moon?"

When Yabo Fein heard those words, he was terrified.

Is Want Want Group really that powerful now?
Are they directly targeting such a high-end project as lunar development?

After catching his breath, Yabo Fein quickly adjusted his breathing and respectfully told Wang Duoyu that he would arrange everything and keep a close eye on the project in Hideb.

"Yes, you really should keep a close eye on things. Right now, the Somali Peninsula has become our Want Want Group's most important, and perhaps even most important, overseas headquarters in the future. The lunar development project will definitely take place on the Somali Peninsula as well."

"At least for the time being, they won't be evacuating from the Somali peninsula, so you must keep a close eye on them!"

Wang Duoyu stared at Yabo Fein on the screen and said softly:
"The super-dollar factory is currently waging guerrilla warfare against the CIA and other agencies. Although it has already successfully released nearly 170 billion US dollars, it is now in a period of relative calm, which makes it more prone to problems."

During the last meeting, he told Martinez and the others that they needed to get the super dollar factory to release at least $150 billion in counterfeit money within half a month.

Half a month has now passed.

In other words, the super dollar factory has completed its short-term mission, and those sales staff may lower their guard.

Because everyone has a tendency to be lazy, and once laziness occurs, accidents may happen.

If caught by a CIA agent, it will inevitably lead to a whole host of other cases.

Therefore, we need to be even more vigilant and careful, especially in situations like these.

Something must not happen at the super dollar factory, because if something happens here, it could affect the Somali peninsula.

Currently, the two most important parts of the Want Want Group are the Super Dollar Factory in the United States and the Hidab Laboratory in Somalia.

Wang Duoyu wants to go to the moon and complete his many plans, so both of these parts are indispensable.

The lunar soil brought back from the moon now contains new, unknown elements, making lunar development an inevitable next step.

If extremely useful elements can be extracted from lunar soil to power experimental projects such as the mini-sun, then the lunar landing program can be accelerated, and lunar development projects could even be launched ahead of schedule.

However, all of this requires both people and money; neither can be lacking.

"Professor, please rest assured, there will definitely be no problems on my end. I will keep a close eye on things."

Yabo Fein quickly expressed his opinion.

The Somali Peninsula is no longer what it was a few years ago. Currently, on the surface, the warlord Damazin controls a small part of the Somali Peninsula, and his territory includes all of Want Want Group's businesses in the Somali Peninsula.

In reality, Damazin has now become a complete puppet, and it is impossible for him to rebel.

Today, the small city of Perbera has been developed and its economy is thriving.

This is especially true in recent years, after the satellite launch site on the Somali peninsula was officially launched.

Furthermore, an airport was built near the port of Berbera, making it easier for outsiders to enter and exit the Somali peninsula.

As long as Want Want Group controls several key regions such as Peppera, it will be impossible for outsiders to break in.

"Okay, I'll be going to the Somali Peninsula early next month."

After giving his instructions, Wang Duoyu hung up the video chat, sat there for a while, and then got up and left the study.

In the courtyard, Bai Doufu was riding her little bicycle, having a cycling race with her classmates.

Her classmates all lived on campus; they were the children of professors and were the same age as her.

"Dad~"

The little girl saw her father, called out to him, and then went back to playing with her classmates.

"Ride slowly!" Wang Duoyu said with a smile. After the little ones had ridden far away, he turned around and went into the villa next door.

Liu Xiaoli is watching a movie, the very popular "Iron Man" from overseas.

Seeing him come in, Liu Xiaoli couldn't help but gossip a bit: How much is the movie's box office now?
Because she knew that the Iron Man movie was produced and distributed by Marvel Studios, with Paramount and MGM as partners. Coincidentally, these Hollywood giants were all controlled by subsidiaries of Want Want Group, which was owned by Wang Duoyu.

Liu Xiaoli did not know the details.

But since she knew that MGM, Paramount, and Marvel Studios were all owned by Wang Duoyu, and that Iron Man was currently the most popular movie in the world, she was naturally curious and would ask a few more questions.

"I haven't seen the news either. Wait a minute, let me check."

Wang Duoyu smiled and said.

Liu Xiaoli rolled her eyes at him:
"Your own business, don't you care about it at all? This is Iron Man, I remember it grossed $2.6 billion worldwide a few days ago."

The box office in North America slowly climbed to $1.3 billion, and although it hasn't finished showing yet, its box office potential has completely disappeared.

At best, it can still gross a few hundred thousand dollars a day, and that's getting less and less.

Because by this point in time, most people have already seen it, and a considerable number of people have even watched it three or five times, or even watched it repeatedly.

It's very simple. The hundreds of thousands of dollars in box office revenue generated every day is very likely due to the sales staff of the Super Dollar Factory, who hire employees to help inflate the box office figures.

It just has to be done covertly.

In addition to North America, the film "Iron Man" also broke through the billion-dollar mark at the international box office, reaching 1.3 billion US dollars.

The overseas box office is growing more slowly, mainly because it hasn't been released in many places yet. For example, in one of the largest overseas markets, it won't be released in mainland China until April, which is still a long way off.

The above is the box office record that Liu Xiaoli saw a few days ago.

The box office of $2.6 billion is astonishing, surpassing Titanic to become the second highest-grossing film in global film history.

As for whether it can break the box office record of "The Bourne Identity", that's hard to say.

Wang Duoyu said:

"It's not that I don't care, it's just that I don't have time to care about these little things. I can only find out about them at the end of the year, or when I have more time."

"If I cared about everything, I wouldn't need to eat, sleep, or spend time with you all."

Liu Xiaoli gave him another alluring glare, "You're getting cocky just because I said you're fat!"

“I’m not fat myself, but my company is quite fat, haha,” Wang Duoyu shrugged, and Liu Xiaoli couldn’t help but sigh.

Then I took him to see a movie.

Having a home theater at home would provide a better viewing experience, but Liu Xiaoli didn't go to the theater; she watched the movie in the living room of her villa.

The couple watched for a while, and it was already 5:30 in the afternoon. Wang Yifei and the others came back from school, but Bai Doufu was still wandering around outside, seemingly tireless, probably not wanting to go home yet.

The joyful time passed quickly, and April arrived in the blink of an eye, with the Qingming Festival also arriving as scheduled.

This year's Qingming Festival was no different from previous years. Wang Duoyu's third brother was in very good spirits and seemed to be able to live a few more years, or even live to be over ninety.

It is rare for someone to live to seventy, let alone ninety or more.

Moreover, generally speaking, people who live to be ninety years old are considered very fortunate.

Don't believe those stories on the internet about people living to be over 100 years old; they are a minority.

If you were to name any centenarian, the number of people of the same age as that centenarian worldwide would probably be less than a thousand, or even less than a hundred.

The news on the internet is nothing more than survivorship bias.

After returning to Dahonggou Village to pay respects to their ancestors during the Qingming Festival, Wang Duoyu stayed in his hometown for two days. This time, Liu Xiaoli did not go back with him to pay respects to their ancestors.

Moreover, Wang Yifei and her brother Wang Junkang did not return; only the three children, Wang Junhong, Wang Junan, and Bai Doufu, went back with Wang Duoyu. Liu Xiaoli's belly was getting bigger and bigger, and June was very close, so she tried to stay still as much as possible.

After paying respects to his ancestors, Wang Duoyu returned to Harbin Institute of Technology for a day, and then went straight to Yanjiagang Airport to fly directly to the ALD area of ​​the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

After arriving here, he changed planes again and headed straight for the Somali Peninsula.

As soon as the plane landed, Yabo Fein, Wang Jianchao, Zheng Baoyin, and Wang Meili were already waiting near the airport.

On his first day in Somalia, Wang Duoyu took a short rest to adjust to the time difference.

They started getting busy the next day.

He immediately went to check on the new unknown element brought back from the moon. This thing was named Armor, which is a homophone of Californium, but they are two completely different elements.

Armor can be combined with many other elements on Earth to form new alloys.

However, the amount of lunar soil brought back from the moon is not large, which means that experiments cannot be conducted yet.

"How are preparations for the second moon landing going?"

After Wang Duoyu understood the element of armor, he immediately began to ask questions.

As the person in charge, Yabo Fein hurriedly reported:
"Professor, we are almost ready. After the fifth round of inspections and tests in the coming week, we can proceed with the second lunar landing."

"Alright, then have your men prepare quickly. Safety is paramount. What I need is to bring back the lunar soil safely and reliably. This time, the goal is to bring back two hundred jin. Understand?"

"understand!"

After giving his instructions, Wang Duoyu did not stay in the laboratory any longer; he prepared to go and take a look at other places.

The entire Somali peninsula has changed dramatically, and the solar power plant built here several years ago has also changed dramatically.

Wang Duoyu took a car to a nearby power plant. After entering the plant area, he was greeted by a large area of ​​solar panels.

These power panels stand in the desert, surrounded by pasture.

Power plants and livestock farming, two industries that are completely incompatible, have now appeared here, and in a very harmonious way.

The emergence of solar panels has halted the desertification process, blocked the wind, and collected a lot of water.

Whenever sand appears on the power generation panels, the power plant workers will use water guns to clean it, and the water will seep into the sand underground along with the power generation panels.

As night falls, water vapor condenses into water droplets under the action of the power generation panels, which then flow down the panels.

As a result, plants grew all over the area around the power generation panels.

This situation had already emerged in the second year after the solar power plant was built.

Many years have passed, and these solar panels have already made a great contribution.

The sheep raised at the power plant are sold directly to residents of the nearby port of Perpela.

Because Hideb's side is not yet able to fully digest all this meat.

This demonstrates the sheer size of the solar power plants surrounding Hideb.

In fact, with the port of Berbera gradually becoming a relatively busy port city near the Gulf of Aden, the establishment of a satellite launch base, and the series of policies of warlord Damazin, the outside world's impression of the Somali Peninsula has gradually changed.

Moreover, the population structure of the port of Perbera has now undergone a fundamental change, with the number of Chinese and white people far exceeding that of black people. All of this change is enough to show that the region has ushered in an unprecedented transformation.

It is estimated that in a few years, the 'soldiers' under Damazin will undergo a major change.

With rapid economic development, the demand for industrial electricity will naturally increase significantly.

In addition to solar power plants, many thermal power plants have been built in Perbera, as well as a nuclear power plant that is currently under bidding.

As we all know, nuclear power plants are mega-projects and also core technologies with extremely high technical requirements.

Whether such a nuclear power plant can be successfully built on the Somali peninsula is anyone's guess.

The outside world may not yet know of Hideb's existence; otherwise, there would be no such doubts.

As for satellite launch bases, they have little to do with nuclear power plants; they are completely different fields of technology.

Wang Duoyu strolled around the solar power plant and enjoyed a whole roasted lamb before heading off to other places.

For the next two or three days, he wandered around various parts of the Somali peninsula.

He also visited the date palm plantation and other economic parks.

This was a project he personally led back then, and many years have passed since then.

Seven years have passed since 1993.

Wang Duoyu still remembers the Black Hawk Down incident very clearly.

Four days had passed since his inspection, after which he returned to Hideb.

He stayed in the underground laboratory of Hideb for nearly five more days before leaving. By the time he returned to Ice City, it was already late April.

Because he had been lingering in the ALD area for several days.

Upon returning to Harbin, Liu Xiaoli shared some good news with him: the little guy, Bai Doufu, had won the championship in a local elementary school computer competition.

"Let me tell you, at the beginning, this championship was a bit uncertain."

Liu Xiaoli said that the competition was predetermined from the beginning. It was a city-wide computer competition for primary school students. As soon as she heard about the competition, she knew there was something fishy going on.

What can elementary school students understand?

As for computers, all they probably know is how to turn them on and off.

So this competition was originally just a way for them to make money and promote their own people, adding to their resumes.

Bai Doufu was dragged along by her classmates to participate. After all, Bai Doufu was only in first grade and was too young to compete with fifth and sixth graders.

Unfortunately, those with real talent were deliberately eliminated before the finals.

Bai Doufu's strength wasn't bad either, but it was far inferior to those masters.

However, Bai Doufu's strength still posed a significant threat to the pre-selected student, so they decided to eliminate her as well.

After being eliminated, Bai Doufu cried. When she got home, Liu Xiaoli found out and called to ask her about it.

It would have been better not to ask, because once you did, you'd find out there was some dirty scheming involved.

Good heavens, who dares to scheme against the Wang family?

As a result of Liu Xiaoli's tough stance, the organizers almost had a brain freeze.

Neither side can afford to offend the other; it's a classic case of gods fighting, and mortals suffering the consequences.

Finally, they had Bai Doufu compete against the pre-selected little guy, and the result was that the fourth-grade student was actually no match for Bai Doufu, who was a first-grader.

There's no way around it; although Bai Doufu is young, she grew up under the influence of her father and older siblings.

And putting everything else aside, just look at her father's study villa; it has a supercomputer inside.

Therefore, Bai Doufu, who grew up in such a family environment, is indeed inferior to the other party.

After hearing this, Wang Duoyu looked puzzled.

This situation sounds very familiar.

If he remembers correctly, some job recruitment exams also seem to have the so-called "nepotism" phenomenon.

In other words, this kind of position has a small number of openings, but it has already been reserved by many people.

A typical example is a special "crooked post" used by the unit's leaders to repay favors.

However, if you're lucky, you might be able to get a job for such a position.

Bai Doufu stole someone else's radish. Of course, she wasn't exactly lucky, because she also relied on her parents' help to get into the finals.

"Alright, it's good that she got it. It's a good experience."

Wang Duoyu made a comment, but Bai Doufu had already run out of her bedroom, holding her certificate, to show off to her father. (End of Chapter)
