Xiaomi Heavy Industry, its first entrepreneurial venture!

Chapter 347 Safety Warning and the Fully Evolved Drone! (Second Update!)
After laughing, he turned to Lin Yi and said, "I'll handle this. If anyone contacts you and asks you to let them go, ignore them!"

After speaking with Lin Yi, Xiao He slowly walked towards Bai Fang, first giving her an apologetic smile, and then handing her the briefcase.

"Go wait over there for a moment!"

After sending Bai Fang away, Xiao He sat down in front of Xia Mengxuan, took out a voice recorder from her left chest, turned it on, and placed it between herself and Xia Mengxuan.

"Host Xia, I am now officially representing the Suzhou Municipal Government to ask you some questions."

"I need to remind you that the questions you answer next will determine what happens to you next."

Think before you answer!

After a few words, Xia Mengxuan's smile vanished.

On the table between the two people, a green indicator light on a thumb-sized voice recorder was flashing, indicating that the little thing had started working.

Xia Mengxuan licked her red lips with the tip of her tongue and whispered:

"Secretary He, please speak!"

Xiao He raised his left hand and stared at the watch on his left wrist: "Reporter Xia, the time is now 10:12 a.m. on July 17, 2010. Our current location is Room 1, 6th Floor, Administration Building, Xiaomi Heavy Industry Group Communications Company, Hanshan Subdistrict Office, Hanshan Temple District, Suzhou City. Please confirm the time and location."

This question left Xia Mengxuan even more at a loss for words. She wanted to refuse, but the other party was in a stronger position. She opened her mouth, then lowered her head and softly replied:

“确认，现在时间是2010年7月17日早上10点12分。”

"We are currently in the No. 1 meeting room on the 6th floor of the administrative building of Xiaomi Heavy Industry Group Communications Company, Hanshan Subdistrict Office, Hanshan Temple District, Suzhou City."

Having received confirmation, Xiao He continued, "May I ask who decided on the topic for this interview, and who, and from where, received the information that the European Space Agency would award Xiaomi Heavy Industry?"

Please answer clearly!

Any ambiguous answer could be detrimental to you!

"I..." The barrage of questions made Xia Mengxuan lower her head, letting out a series of barely audible whispers...

Seeing this, Bai Fang was about to step forward when she was stopped by the cameraman.

Left with no other choice, the girl turned to Lin Yi for help. Lin Yi shrugged and gave her a helpless look.

After spending a few more minutes asking some questions, Xiao He reached out and put away the recorder, stood up, gave Lin Yi an apologetic smile, and then pulled Lin Yi to a corner of the room:

"I apologize to you on behalf of my girlfriend. I'm sorry for the trouble she caused you."

"I will take the person back to the municipal government later and hand them over to Secretary Qin for his decision."

"As for your side, Mr. Lin, increase security."

After leaving some instructions, Xiao He turned and left with his men. Lin Yi personally escorted them to the door and then had Han Shunfa send two people to follow them. He personally watched the car leave before turning back to his office.

Sitting in his leather chair in the office, he reopened the web pages he had visited yesterday, opening each article on a new page and studying them again.

Soon, a somewhat absurd conclusion quietly emerged in his mind.

Someone is targeting him, but at the same time, someone is subtly reminding him in the shadows.

It can't be the security bureau.

The security bureau wouldn't be so subtle in their warnings. If it were the security bureau, they would more likely just call you directly, telling you to be careful and it would be best not to go out.

So, this guy reminds me that he's not in the country.

Having reached this conclusion, Lin Yi began to sort out his network of relationships.

First, let's rule out connections with the Middle East. Those people should be grateful if they don't cause trouble; they wouldn't be capable of such scheming.

Then there's Tao Zhanpeng and Smith, whom we haven't seen in a long time, but it's unlikely that either of them will be around.

Although it's unclear which side Tao Zhanpeng is on, based on past interactions, he seems more like a corporate spy, and his authority isn't very high.

It's impossible to know such a thing.

As for Smith, he might know about this, but given your ruthless nature, he won't help you unless you can offer him significant benefits.

After counting them all, Lin Yi still couldn't figure out who the person who might have helped him was.

As for those who are targeting us, there's a 50% chance it's America, a 30% chance it's Europe, a 15% chance it's Japan, and a 5% chance it's Israel.

But based on the principle of simply blaming America for the person who caused the damage, Lin Yi guessed that it must be America.

More precisely, it should be the CIA.

After all, the CIA is most familiar with this kind of thing.

After hesitating for a while, he got up, walked to the water dispenser, poured two glasses of ice water, and drank them down.

After cooling down his brain, he took out his phone and called all the senior executives in the company in Suzhou, asking them to come back to the company for a meeting.

You wouldn't know unless you called it, and once you do, you'll be shocked.

Several company executives gathered together, and even a large conference room couldn't hold them all.

After everyone was seated, Lin Yi connected the projector to the computer and projected the content displayed on the computer screen onto the projection screen:
"These are some articles that have been appearing online since yesterday morning."

"These articles all have only one content, which is to praise our satellite launch this time."

“If it were just flattery, I wouldn’t have called everyone over.”

"The problem lies in these commonalities."

Lin Yi dragged the mouse and marked all the common points in these articles.

Among the commonalities he highlighted, the most prominent was the author's petition to have executives from Xiaomi Heavy Industry travel to France to participate in an exchange meeting hosted by the European Space Agency and receive a non-existent award for space exploration.

When these words were marked one by one and brought to the attention of everyone present, they noticed the problem.

It seems someone is fueling the flames.

Once everyone's attention was focused on the text, Lin Yi began to explain:
"Our satellite launch this time has become a thorn in the side of some people."

"They wanted to kill us, so they resorted to this underhanded method."

"Next, I expect other people will contact you, and the benefits they offer may be substantial, far exceeding what I can give."

"Everyone here can assess the situation, but I need to remind you to be careful."

"There are countless roads, but safety is the most important."

"In the coming period, I will reorganize the security department."

"Wang Bo, Liao Xiangjun, I will compile a list of recruitment requirements for a cybersecurity department for you later. Please recruit some people for the cybersecurity department according to these requirements."

"At the same time, I will give you the contact information of the Security Bureau. You can contact the Security Bureau if necessary."

"The meeting is adjourned."

After saying what he wanted to say, Lin Yi decisively announced the end of the meeting. Just as he returned to his office, there was a knock on the door from the outside.

Standing outside the door were Cao Bin and several of his classmates.

Besides them, there were also Gao Jin and a few others. After letting them in and pouring each of them a cup of tea, Lin Yi sat down in front of them and asked:

"What's up?"

The group of people who had just sat down on the sofa looked at each other. Finally, Gao Jin hesitated before asking:

"Boss, do you know who's trying to sabotage us?"

After the question was asked, the people present visibly became nervous. Some of them sitting on the sofa kept shaking their legs, while others standing pressed their hands against the sofa and kept rubbing the leather, which made Lin Yi feel sorry for them.

Those are all genuine leather sofas.

So expensive!
Sitting in the chair, Lin Yi used his hand to find the direction and pointed east:

"There is only one person capable of doing something like this, and there is only one: America. After all, they have done this kind of thing more than once or twice."

"Of course, besides them, Europe is doing it too, and Japan is doing it too."

"Even if you ask me to name the specific person, I can't say."

All I can say is that it's better to be on guard.

Seeing the worry appear on the faces of those present, Lin Yi gently waved his hand again:
"But you can rest assured, their main target should be me, and then the team responsible for the satellite and batteries."

"Once the security department is reorganized, everyone can work with peace of mind."

"Go back to work!"

"Mao Xiaofei, stay behind!"

After receiving Lin Yi's words, the others left one after another, and within a few minutes, only Lin Yi and Mao Xiaofei remained in the office.

The door closed, and Mao Xiaofei approached Lin Yi: "Senior Brother!"

Lin Yi looked up: "How's the complete drone system coming along?"

When asked about drones, Mao Xiaofei spread out his left hand and began counting on his fingers one by one with his right hand:

"The first batch of prototypes and related systems have been assembled, and the operation of the drone's own systems has been verified."

"Now we just need to wait for our navigation system to start working completely."

“I asked Professor Lu yesterday, and he said that the three geostationary satellites are in place and they are currently forming a network.”

"If we hurry, we can get the signal back on by noon tomorrow."

"If we're not worried about crashing, we can start testing drones tomorrow."

The overall progress was very good, and Lin Yi was very satisfied. After pondering for a moment, he looked up and said:

"Get ready, we'll start testing as soon as the network connection is established tomorrow."

"Don't be afraid of drones crashing. We have a production line. If a drone crashes, we'll just add another one and start flying again."

"We must find out all the possible problems."

"When we sell our products to customers, they're risking their lives with them, so there can't be any problems, understand?"

Listening to Lin Yi's repeated instructions, Mao Xiaofei pounded his chest with his right hand:

"Don't worry, senior brother. Even with our incomplete drones, we still managed to defeat the Americans. Now that we have our complete drones, we will definitely not let our customers down."

"They dared to mess with us, so they should be prepared to pay the price!"

Lin Yi was not surprised by Mao Xiaofei's remarks.

In 2010, thanks to the enhanced functionality of mobile phones, the world truly began to enter the information age.

This is an era of opportunity; in this era, mastering enough information asymmetry can lead to making enough money.

In this era, a normal person can easily master the ability to retrieve information.

Mao Xiaofei and Cao Bin are not stupid, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to get into Dongda Men's Vocational Technical College.

They must have seen what they did while browsing the news.

It would be a surprise if you couldn't see it.

Lin Yi nodded to Mao Xiaofei and then gave him another instruction:

"Be careful, and try not to go out during this period."

"Understood!" Mao Xiaofei nodded, then thumped his chest and left the office with a smile.

In his office, Lin Yi read some related news for a while, then opened a new document and began organizing the reorganization work of the security department.

After much revision, he suddenly realized that instead of keeping the security department, it would be better to just build a new security company and stuff all the people from the security department into it.

After undergoing standardized training, they are then assigned to various companies.

A new idea popped into his head, and he immediately scrapped the previous document, found a similar template online, and began to adjust the security department according to the specifications of a security company.

After making the adjustments, he immediately sent the plan to Wang Bo, Liao Xiangjun, and Han Shunfa.

While waiting for the three people to reply, he sent a group message to several friends in the Middle East.

[The fully-equipped drone has been successfully launched. Want to take a look?]

Sadr Jr.: What kind of drone is it? Can it fly in the sky like the America Reaper drone?
Never mind, I'll have Fahbad come over.

Saller: Are you out of your mind? Tell me, are you out of your mind? Why didn't you say anything when I was here a couple of days ago? I just got home and rested for two days, and now you're saying something's come out?
Are you crazy?
Rashid: Please pack it up and send it to an Emirates flight. Just give my name and someone will meet you. Thank you!
After reading the replies from the three guys, Lin Yi replied with "ok" to each one to confirm the message was delivered. He then tossed his phone aside and continued looking for entertainment online.

On the other side, the Suzhou Municipal Government.

After listening to the recording Xiao He gave him, Qin Chao turned around and carefully looked Xia Mengxuan up and down. Then he got up from behind his desk, pulled over a chair, and sat down in front of Xia Mengxuan.

He then nodded to Xia Mengxuan's photographer, gesturing for him to sit down opposite him. After the photographer sat down, he calmly looked at the two of them and asked:
"Whose idea was it?"

The cameraman reacted even faster than Xia Mengxuan; almost the instant Qin Chao finished speaking, his finger was already pointing at Xia Mengxuan.

"She was the one who planned this!"

“Secretary Qin, this is an opportunity for us to showcase ourselves. If General Manager Lin goes, with his abilities, he will definitely make the world see us in a new light…” Betrayed by her partner, Xia Mengxuan took a deep breath, preparing to give Qin Chao the usual official platitudes, but she was interrupted by Qin Chao raising his hand after only two sentences:

"You don't need to tell me all this!"

"All I need to do is confirm that it's you. From the moment you decided to do this, the whole thing had nothing to do with you anymore."

In front of Xia Mengxuan, Qin Chao took out his phone and dialed Jiang Daqiao's number.

Once the call connected, Qin Chao said in a serious tone:
"You have a TV host named Xia Mengxuan, fire her!"

In Jinling, Jiang Daqiao listened to the words on the phone, his face growing increasingly dark.

After listening, he then called Jinling TV Station:

"Fire someone named Xia Mengxuan!"
