Professor Chen Xiaofang and Yang Chaoxiong stayed in the office, drinking tea and waiting for Ye Ming, thanks to their refusal to leave.
There is no way, the current structure of Jizhi Technology is too special. It is okay to invest tens of billions, but investments worth hundreds of billions must go through it - even though Chen Xiaofang, the chairman of the board, has a respected position, he also
It is impossible to arrange hundreds of billions of capital at will with just one word.
Only Ye Ming can leverage these non-emergency investments.
As time passed by, Yang Chaoxiong kept looking at the time.
Chen Xiaofang laughed when he saw this: "Chaoxiong, are you anxious to go home to nurse your baby?"
"Uh...Teacher Chen." Yang Chaoxiong knew that he was a little too eager. He laughed at himself, looked around, shook his head and sighed: "I'm worried that this guy is like Lao Xie, who just takes it as soon as he comes up.
Compare battleships... At this juncture, who dares to touch Taiyue's cake?"
The Lao Xie they refer to is Xie Wubing, the director of the Taiyue Investment and Development Committee. All currently large-scale investment projects, as well as all human projects involving outside investment, are coordinated and managed by this department.
Don't underestimate this investment and development committee. Its structure can be regarded as the integrated pro PS version of the former United Nations WTO and domestic FGW. There are hundreds of members, all of whom are heads of business departments and super multinational groups from the former world's economic and industrial powers.
CEOs, Chen Xiaofang is also one of the committee members.
The establishment of this department also marks that the economic trade and production of human civilization will gradually become integrated.
When they approached Director Xie, Director Xie did not make a clear statement directly. Such a large investment would also involve jobs in various countries and various industrial fields. Even Lao Xie couldn't make the decision. He just settled the matter for the two of them.
By the way, the cost of the flagship fleet that ultimately played a decisive role in the Auriga fleet was more than 230 billion.
That is 1 Baiqi battleship and 12 Eagle-class cruisers in the fully equipped state.
With such a configuration, according to the current sophisticated tactics of mankind, it is possible to conquer a civilization that has entered the space age, such as the ocular galaxy.
"Well... human beings are like this now: exploding troops is fun for a while, and it is always fun to explode troops." Professor Chen nodded, and expressed the feelings of a middle-aged man of his age when he played the stand-alone version of Red Alert: "Who hinders the explosion of troops?"
Soldier, whoever is holding us back is the one holding us back."
Yang Chaoxiong: "..."
"Chaoxiong, relax. Ye Ming is a person who sees the long term. The universal assembly line is related to the future of mankind thousands of years from now. He must know it well." Professor Chen knew that in the past two years, he was most concerned about the universal assembly line project.
The person in charge is Yang Chaoxiong. It can be said that he put all his efforts on the project - the reason why this is the case is... Ye Ming.
Yang Chaoxiong took Ye Ming on a business trip ten years ago to work on machine vision. Later, he was personally responsible for the promotion and upgrade of the robotic arm and the digital factory behind it. Although Ye Ming was responsible for the subsequent universal factory, he was responsible for it.
He gave his wife Qi Yumo the responsibility. But... Yang Chaoxiong still hopes to get out of Ye Ming's "shadow" a little bit.
After all, he is Ye Ming's senior brother, and he still has some pursuits. He can't just live under the protection of his talented junior brother.
Listening to Professor Chen's comfort, Yang Chaoxiong nodded. He also knew that in addition to investment, this matter also involved a wide range of things and there was no need to rush it.
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door, and a moment later, Li Dongsheng appeared outside the door.
"Teacher Chen, senior brother? What kind of wind blew you in, where is Ye Ming?"
Chen Xiaofang knew that Li Dongsheng had been arranged by Ye Ming to go into the brain-computer center to "shelter from the limelight", so he smiled and waved: "I was pulled over by the Foreign Affairs Office, probably to discuss the affairs of the Kerong people - what are you doing here?"
"I asked him to suggest that we modify the hangar in Auriga and use the existing space to add an atmospheric circulation system, so that it can be turned into a manned transfer station and scientific research station."
Professor Chen just thought for a second and then nodded: "It's a good idea."
"Hey, that's good, right? You'll have to explain it to me later." Li Dongsheng walked into the office and planned to introduce his thoughts to the two of them in detail.
Professor Chen and Yang Chaoxiong looked at each other and laughed.
"Then you have to help us blow up the universal assembly line first."
Li Dongsheng: "..."
At that moment, the three of them started chatting in Ye Ming's office.
Half an hour later, Ye Ming returned to the office.
As soon as he entered the door, before anyone else could speak, he raised his chin at Yang Chaoxiong and said, "Brother, please prepare yourself. You may need to go to the Karatu Galaxy for inspection."
The three people were stunned.
After a while, Yang Chaoxiong asked belatedly: "What about... the universal workshop?"
"If we can successfully negotiate with the Kerong people this time, it will be a big deal!"
"Ye Ming, I have another project idea!"
"……explain!"
…
Ye Ming only stayed on the earth for one day before returning to the moon again.
As soon as he stepped into Taiyue's office, Qin Weiguo, Director Niu and Director Xia came hand in hand - the three of them were on the moon, so Ye Ming had no choice but to make another trip.
"The Queen of Kerong is very smart. She first asked to meet with the boss, and after obtaining certain key promises from the boss, she decided to meet with the fleet envoy."
Director Xia was the organizer and executor of this meeting between the two most civilized talkers. She watched the entire video exchange between the two and knew the most detailed situation. It can be seen from her energetic eyes that this time
The boss meeting achieved results beyond expectations.
Ye Ming hummed and immediately asked: "What commitments did the other party ask for?"
"The first is our commitment not to launch an attack, and the second is our commitment to protect their safety and continue civilization."
Ye Ming's eyes flashed and he laughed instantly: "They didn't say what if humans lose?"
At this time, Director Niu also laughed: "We feel that the Kerong people are planning to use these two promises to magnify the crisis after humanity loses to gain greater benefits for the subsequent negotiations."
"Moreover, we can also judge that they probably cannot obtain the same commitment from the executors."
Ye Ming nodded with deep understanding: "Either become our enemy now and face the attacks of humans and the Tara tribe, or join us - it seems that their choice is indeed pragmatic and meticulous."
Speaking of Gou, everyone laughed.
But after laughing, Director Xia said seriously: "However, when I was communicating with the boss today, the queen opposite told me a lot about their history."
"What history?"
"It is said that they once tragically resisted the elite army of the Holy Empire. The war lasted for decades and fought in many galaxies."
Ye Ming was slightly startled: "Is there such a thing?"
"Yes, they continued to resist until they were finally invaded into the home star system. The Executor opened a huge induced teleportation star gate, pulled a doomsday-like Star Destroyer warship to the battlefield, and launched a annihilation campaign against their home star of Ella.
attack."
"Then, their resistance was recognized by the Holy Empire, which promised them that they could exist forever as long as they no longer touch taboos and no longer expand their power."
Ye Ming fell silent.
After a few seconds, he whispered: "Is this why they are cowardly?"
"I think...this is what their queen wants to express. After all, if the Kerong people are really a soft-footed shrimp civilization, then they should have been unable to resist the Tara people."
Ye Ming hummed softly.
At this moment, he remembered a saying - he is timid because he has witnessed strength.
At this time, Director Niu said leisurely: "Actually, in my opinion, she wants to clear her name..."
"Pfft!" Director Xia laughed out loud.
Ye Ming also put away his thoughts and became happy.
Qin Weiguo smiled and said: "Actually, even if you say it nicely, it still can't hide the fact that their spines were broken."
"Yeah, but speaking of it this way, it can at least arouse some sympathy from us. And..." Ye Ming narrowed his eyes slightly: "The appearance of the Star Destroyer that destroyed their home planet is in line with our judgment."
"Weapons with greater power and mass will become fixed turrets after their speed reaches a threshold. Therefore, we don't have to worry about encountering such weapons in future operations."
Upon hearing these words, Qin Weiguo breathed a sigh of relief.
As Commander Taiyue, what he is most worried about is that while he is fighting, the enemy will be like a game boss without a strategy, and he will take out crushing weapons and equipment without paying attention.
Star Destroyer, just hearing this makes people sweat.
"What's next?"
"Next is Yang Wenzhi's face-to-face negotiation to find out the other party's bottom line." Director Xia blinked slightly: "Mr. Ye, they will bring high-power composite signal collectors... It's up to you."
…
…
Karatu galaxy, Baiqihao.
In the past two days, under various successive negotiations, they have slowly pushed the fleet to a distance of less than a hundred light seconds from the Kron people's home planet.
This distance is just enough to give the other party a sense of security, and it can also leave enough space for humans to perform - to put it bluntly, it is a space for threats.
At this time, the five-person negotiation team was making final preparations before departure, and the rest of the crew gathered in the restaurant to see the five of them off.
During the few days that Yang Wenzhi left for negotiations, the temporary commander of the fleet was handed over to Ikarovich. This sturdy Siberian man shook Yang Wenzhi's hand vigorously and smiled angrily: "Old Yang,
You can go without worries. As soon as you leave, I will aim my main cannon at their palace. If they dare to touch a hair of yours, I will send them to see God."
"Go away, they know that our spaceship is completely unmanned, so even if they put us under house arrest, it will be useless." Yang Wenzhi glanced at the suitcase and cast a questioning look at Zeng Yuanhai.
The latter nodded slightly, indicating that everything was OK.
"gone!"
As five robots opened the way ahead, Yang Wenzhi and the other five people strode towards the cargo hold.
