Even after they left the house, Natasha didn't tell Jiang Chen what happened. She just vaguely said that she drank too much yesterday and changed the topic. Although Jiang Chen was curious, he didn't ask. After he was eighty percent full from breakfast, he also went to the bathroom to wash up.
At about eight o 'clock, surrounded by a group of Russians in suits, Jiang Chen took Natasha downstairs and got into the limousine.
Although the long line of security personnel following behind made Jiang Chen feel uncomfortable, he also understood that it was a special period and no one dared to gamble.
The car didn't go far before Jiang Chen received a call from Xia Shiyu.
"How are you doing over there? Is it safe? "
"How is it safe? I have a dozen muscular men guarding me when I go out. I even have people accompanying me when I go to the washroom."
"Pfft, then I'm relieved. With more than a dozen burly men watching you, you won't have to go around doing bad things. "
Xia Shiyu was trying to hold back her laughter.
Seeing that this girl was too proud, Jiang Chen decided to tease her, so he smiled evilly. "That's not necessarily true. Guess who the Russians assigned to me as a security consultant?"
Xia Shiyu paused for a moment and wanted to say Ayesha, but then she thought about it. She didn't seem to be a security consultant, but a private bodyguard.
After thinking for a moment, she suddenly thought of a name and asked.
"Could it be … Natasha?"
Out of all the Russians she knew, Natasha was the one she was closest to. She seemed to remember Ayesha mentioning to her that Natasha used to work for the KGB before entering the diplomatic system.
Although her relationship with the hot Russian girl was not bad, and the four of them even went on vacation together, it didn't mean she was willing to add another sister.
"Aren't the two beauties at home enough for you?" Xia Shiyu gritted her teeth as she couldn't think of any way to control Jiang Chen. She could only pout and say with grievance.
"Ahem, just a security consultant. Nothing happened between me and her. Don't think too much. Okay, let's not talk about this. How is your side? How many asteroids have we contracted? "Jiang Chen quickly changed the topic.
Seeing that Jiang Chen didn't plan to continue on this topic, although Xia Shiyu was easily jealous, she wasn't the type of woman to cause trouble. She still knew what was important. After talking about work, these personal matters were put aside.
"A total of five, including one each from China, Russia, the United States, Japan, and India. NASA has asked us to expand the asteroid contract quota and replace the hard quota with market bidding. The United Kingdom and France have also submitted applications to us. "
"Ignore NASA's request. Tell them to come to us for a second asteroid when they're done with the one they're holding. Don't think about getting rich in one bite. As for England and France … "
Jiang Chen looked at Natasha sitting across from him.
Although she covered her ears to show that she didn't hear, Jiang Chen obviously didn't take her seriously.
He organized his words in his mind and avoided all sensitive information.
"The conditions for the United Kingdom's application can be relaxed for now. France will continue to block it. When the European Union is done, we'll review their application."
"Will people use the World Trade Agreement as an excuse?" Xia Shiyu was hesitant.
"The carrier of the World Trade Agreement is countries. We are a private company, and a large multinational company. We have the right to decide who we do business with and who we don't bring along," Jiang Chen said without hesitation.
"Okay, since it's your order, I'll do it." Xia Shiyu nodded.
"Then I'll leave it to you."
After saying goodbye to Xia Shiyu, Jiang Chen smiled and turned off the holographic screen on his watch. His eyes just happened to meet Natasha sitting across from him.
"Why can't I do it?" Natasha said unhappily.
"Because …" Jiang Chen couldn't think of how to answer this question, so he said in a showy manner. "Love is selfish."
Sure enough, Natasha made a vomiting gesture and exaggeratedly patted her chest to make a face. That look was almost perfect.
"Then why can Ayesha do it?"
Jiang Chen didn't know what to say. For a moment, he really couldn't think of any rebuttal …
"There are always exceptions to everything," Jiang Chen said shamelessly.
"I understand, you only like the kind of woman with a poor figure, and you're not interested in other women. In the words of your country, you're a lolicon! Pervert! " Angered by Jiang Chen's answer, Natasha threw out this sentence and then angrily turned her head away from him.
Jiang Chen paused for a moment and didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he looked at her sulking face. What is going on?
…
Maybe she was really angry, Natasha didn't say a word on the way. Although somewhat puzzled, Jiang Chen didn't take it too seriously. He knew very well that she wasn't the kind of woman who was narrow-minded. Maybe she would forget about it after a while.
As for expecting Jiang Chen to do a self-reflection, it was impossible.
When they arrived at the Russian Aerospace Science and Technology Group, a Russian with a distinctive big nose enthusiastically invited him into the group's building and took him from the warehouse to the office. Finally, he even went to the research and development center.
During their conversation, Jiang Chen learned that the name of the big-nosed Russian was Yuri. It was a very common name in Russia, similar to "Xiao Ming" in Hua.
However, contrary to his common name, he was very talkative. Since Jiang Chen entered the door of the Aerospace Science and Technology Group, he almost never stopped talking.
"This is the RM-320 we produced based on the drawings you provided. Your design is amazing. I don't know what words to use to describe the shock in my heart. The only fly in the ointment is that the material of our combustion chamber does not meet the standard … "Yuri pointed to a bright silver rocket engine and praised generously. From time to time, he would ask Jiang Chen some questions about aerospace technology.
However, Jiang Chen was destined to disappoint him. He knew almost nothing about the technology. He only knew the general direction. When it came to the technical details, he might not be as good as the interns who copied the data behind the experts.
But fortunately, among the people who came with him from Xin, there were experts in this area, and these problems were dealt with by those experts. Perhaps because they were impressed by the technology of Celestial Trade, these proud Russian scientists were very eager to learn when faced with the guidance of the experts sent by Celestial Trade. If there was anything they didn't understand, they would immediately ask, for fear that there would be no more opportunities.
Helping Russia master the RM-320 engine itself was part of the agreement. Jiang Chen didn't bother with the Celestial Trade expert surrounded by Russian scientists, but followed Yuri to another place.
In an empty warehouse, there was a flat cuboid aircraft about 15 meters in length. At the back of this rectangular aircraft, there were four large holes. From the size, it was just enough to fit an RM-320 engine.
"Duke Oleg, our independently developed and designed space cargo spacecraft. It can be used to travel to and from the Earth-Moon system. This is the top secret of our Aerospace Science and Technology Group." Yuri stepped forward and patted the iron lump, then proudly raised his eyebrows at Jiang Chen.
