Chapter 629: Chapter 629: Let the "Show" Begin
"Don’t run around, it’s dangerous."
"Of course, I know what’s important."
At this moment, Candy, who was hiding behind Zhou Yaling, poked her head out and asked, "Brother, aren’t you taking me with you?"
Mo Jingchun glanced at Candy and said irritably, "It’s not like I’m going out to play, why bring you along. Besides, you have classes. Didn’t you say you wanted to earn a little red flower?"
"Oh, right."
Look at this little scatterbrain; with someone at home, Mo Jingchun would only bring Candy to skip classes and visit the construction site if he was really idle.
Otherwise, once Candy saw all those rows of various large machines, would she still want to go home? She might even think about driving her toy excavator over to join the work. That would be a nightmare.
After chatting for a while, Zhou Yaling yawned, waved her hand, and said, "Candy, be good, don’t disturb your sister’s nap. I didn’t sleep well this morning."
"Sister, the early bird catches the worm."
Zhou Yaling, holding onto the stair railing on her way upstairs, replied without turning back, "It’s okay, I don’t eat worms."
Candy was dumbfounded on the spot.
Is that what the teacher meant? Doesn’t seem so. Sister’s comprehension skills are seriously lacking!
"Brother, isn’t ’the early bird catches the worm’ correct?"
That stumped Mo Jingchun. After all, this is a very realistic world: the early bird catches the worm, yes and no.
"I guess so, you can ask the teacher the day after tomorrow."
"But sister..."
"Your sister is different; she’s not an ordinary bird, she’s picky and doesn’t eat worms."
Candy blinked at her brother.
She’s just a little short, not stupid.
Brother just likes to fool little kids.
In a luxurious villa in Peng City, there was a small private gathering, with all the attendees being familiar faces from the mobile phone industry.
Although holographic projection technology has been made open-source, the current situation undoubtedly puts the whole world on an equal footing.
In the future, whoever manages to miniaturize holographic projection first will take the lead in capturing the market.
Integrating holographic projection technology into phones is what all mobile users are eagerly awaiting.
This is a brand new, very large piece of cake.
That’s precisely why they gathered today.
"I heard Candy Technology’s aerospace launch center is starting construction the day after tomorrow."
"The speed is really unmatched."
Yu Big Mouth chuckled and said, "President Lei, as long as the money’s in place, you could do it too."
"No comparison there. Rumor has it Candy Technology’s cash flow is this much." President Lei extended one finger, speaking with admiration.
"That much?" Everyone around was stunned.
"Is it? I suspect it could be two fingers."
Yu Big Mouth raised an eyebrow, "That’s too exaggerated; Huawei’s annual revenue hasn’t even reached one trillion."
Everyone looked at each other; revenue and net profit are two different things.
Not to mention Candy Technology’s cash flow.
If Candy Technology took out bank loans, the thought itself is terrifying.
Candy Technology is a new company, after all.
"Ahem, actually everyone knows. Candy Technology’s products aren’t cheap. Look at my glasses here; they cost me over thirty thousand."
"And that’s just what’s on the surface; a significant portion of Candy Technology’s income comes from military orders. Those profits can’t even be estimated."
"Speaking of which, just look at the subway line one construction in Huo County, and you can catch a glimpse."
For a moment, everyone was silent.
After a long time, Yu Big Mouth spoke up, "Candy Technology plans to launch a space rocket before the Spring Festival, which is why the Anyang Aerospace Rocket Launch Center is in a hurry to start construction."
"This project is supervised in person by Su Wenyan, the third key person in Candy Technology. Clearly, Mo Jingchun values the aerospace launch center highly."
This isn’t really a secret; although the news hasn’t spread, everyone in the circle knows.
President Lei, who hadn’t invested in rocket research and development, laughed and said, "There’s nothing much to say about that; what’s really puzzling is the airport being built alongside the launch center."
"I can’t figure out why Candy Technology is spending money to build an airport. Isn’t this like having too much money to spend?"
In general, such infrastructure is always a government undertaking.
And what’s even more puzzling is, why not build the airport outside Huo County?
Is it really, as rumored, to prevent aircraft noise from affecting the labs and industrial park machinery?
That’s quite possible; many lab equipment pieces require a very specific environment.
In the conference room, when Mo Jingchun arrived, what was previously heated discussion and argument fizzled out like the receding tide within ten seconds. The entire room went silent.
Seeing the flushed faces of the more than two hundred research personnel, Mo Jingchun knew that the past week’s R&D must have made a big leap forward. That’s good news.
Sitting down, Mo Jingchun said with a big smile, "Looks like everyone had a fruitful week."
As soon as he finished, he changed his tone and said, "But from the arguments I heard as I walked in, many of you must have encountered new problems again."
"Today, you’re the stars, so... let’s go one by one from front to back."
"The stage is yours."
With that, Mo Jingchun got up from the stage and walked to the back of the conference room to sit down.
Mo Jingchun’s departure prompted everyone to drop the pleasantries.
For the rest of the time, each person who got on stage triggered a debate.
Now and then, when there was a deadlock and no idea in sight, Mo Jingchun would offer a suggestion.
As time passed, the gaze from people looking at Mo Jingchun grew increasingly peculiar.
No one knew why, but today the boss seemed like an encyclopedia.
Everywhere he pointed, he fixed?
That feeling was beyond mere knowledge.
If this news got out, it would shock countless people.
This spanned multiple fields.
Just as Mo Jingchun predicted, the problems encountered in this brainstorming session were even tougher than last time.
At around five in the afternoon, an achy Mo Jingchun finally walked out of the second laboratory building.
Coincidentally, it was almost time for kindergarten to let out, so Mo Jingchun simply waited at the kindergarten gate for Candy to finish school.
"Boss, why don’t you sit for a bit?" Feiyan pointed to the chair she usually sat on.
Glancing at the chair, Mo Jingchun shook his head.
"No, standing for a while feels good."
To avoid misunderstandings with Feiyan, Mo Jingchun said directly, "I’ve been sitting in the conference room all day; it’s really uncomfortable."
For a moment, Mo Jingchun couldn’t figure it out either. The conference room seats in the second laboratory building were all soft, but sitting for a long time felt even more tiring than a hard bench.
After over a decade of school, Mo Jingchun never found wooden benches tiring.
