Although Jiang Chen didn't mention any conditions, Liu Haotian still expressed that the Liu family owed him a favor and would definitely return the favor.
But Jiang Chen didn't take Liu Haotian's promise to heart. The most ruthless imperial family was just a joke when dealing with these powerful families. He already understood this point when he was in Wanghai. What could be more important than saving a life? If saving a life was not enough to exchange for protection, then this favor was even more so.
The cooperation with the Liu family tied the two parties together based on interests. There was no need for any favors to maintain.
After Liu Haotian left, Jiang Chen found Zhang Yaping, who just finished negotiating with Han diplomats, and ordered him to cooperate with Han to suppress the attack and appease the emotions of those investors.
The fire of the explosion couldn't be covered, and many people nearby captured the thick smoke coming out of the hotel room. However, the nature of the incident was changed from an attack to a natural gas pipeline failure, and the temporary worker responsible for maintenance was fired. The explosion occurred in an unoccupied room. Although the foreign guests were shocked, they weren't injured. For the sake of the friendship between the two countries, Xin President Zhang Yaping accepted the apology of the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the hotel, putting an end to this "accident."
When the reporters were allowed to enter the scene, Jiang Chen's room number was changed to another room. People who knew the inside story were also silenced, and the truth of this incident sank to the bottom of the ocean. But even so, whether it was the Ghost Agents or the General Staff Department, they didn't give up on the search for the accomplice of the attacker.
Needless to say, the person was very good at escaping. He managed to escape from the agents of the General Staff Department several times and escaped from the layers of encirclement. It was obvious that before this assassination mission, they obviously planned carefully. Not only did they know the urban terrain of Shangjing like the back of their hand, but they also prepared transportation and camouflage clothes along the way.
Sitting in the secondhand Dongfeng pickup truck, he put on makeup to look like a balding middle-aged man. Wearing a faded shirt and jeans, the burly killer had completely integrated into his new role as a long-distance driver.
As for why Jiang Chen knew all of this, it was naturally because he couldn't escape the Sky Eye X1 satellite's tracking from beginning to end.
Just when he left Shangjing and arrived at the suburbs of Jinmen, the Ghost Agents who had been following him from afar began to close the net. They intercepted him near a gas station, then covered him with optical invisibility clothes and tied him to a ship bound for Xin.
At noon the next day, the agents of the General Staff Department were still searching for the accomplice, but Jiang Chen already received information that he was imprisoned on New Moon Island.
"… We found something very strange about him."
At the moment, in the restaurant of the hotel, Jiang Chen and Ayesha were sitting together, enjoying lunch while exchanging information from the Ghost Agents.
"Strange?" Jiang Chen put down his chopsticks and looked at Ayesha.
"That's right. His regenerative ability is extremely strong, to an unimaginable degree. Any non-fatal injury on his body can heal in a very short period of time. When Zhu Yu caught him, she thought she got the wrong person because there was no trace of a gunshot wound on his chest … And in the interrogation on New Moon Island, we discovered his incredible healing ability, "Ayesha whispered in a voice only Jiang Chen could hear.
"Accelerated healing … Wait, interrogation?" Jiang Chen looked at Ayesha in shock.
Ayesha nodded solemnly.
"That's right, the truth-telling serum is ineffective on him."
The chopsticks holding the quail egg stopped in mid-air, and Jiang Chen's pupils contracted.
The truth-telling serum is ineffective? Impossible. Based on what Sun Jiao said, only people injected with genetic vaccines, immunity boosters, or rare nano blood could resist this hallucinogenic poison. Without a doubt, these things definitely didn't exist in the modern world!
[Is he a traveler like me?!]
The thought abruptly popped up in Jiang Chen's head, but he quickly denied it. Because if he was really a transmigrator, the weapon he used would not be such an unimpressive bomb. No matter what, he would at least use something like a nuclear grenade.
"Increase the amount of truth-telling serum … If he is really immune to this, then use physical methods to interrogate him. You have to get the information out of his mouth no matter what. But don't kill him, I still have use for him. "
Jiang Chen stuffed the quail egg into his mouth, chewed, and closed his eyes.
Ayesha nodded and engraved his instructions in her mind.
…
Based on the itinerary, one of the main purposes of Jiang Chen's trip was in the afternoon – the Huaxin Economic and Trade Forum. At that time, the Hua tech giants would gather there, and the three giants of BAT would also be present. The cooperation between the internet and VR industry would be the highlight of the conference, with companies from both countries engaging in in-depth exchanges.
Although it was an exchange between companies from both countries, everyone knew it was an exchange between Future Technology and the three giants of BAT. The only relatively large tech company in Xin was Future Technology, and the tech companies in Hua that had the ability to take the lead in the VR field were only the three giants. Although there were quite a few powerful tech companies like Sogou and 361, there was still a large gap between them and the three giants that dominated the market.
The business conference was held at Shangjing Hotel.
When Jiang Chen arrived in Liu Haotian's Hongqi L9, it was exactly 2: 30, ten minutes before the conference began. But from the almost full garage, the representatives participating in the conference all arrived early.
Of course, when Jiang Chen stepped into the conference room at the end of the corridor, all eyes landed on him. Other than the presidents of the three giants of BAT, the people sitting there were also tech giants as well as famous journalists standing by the wall.
Even so, he only recognized two people's faces.
And it was quite embarrassing to say that he recognized them through memes …
He silently walked to the only empty seat and sat down. He couldn't look at the two presidents who were smiling at him.
"Ahem." Seeing that everyone had arrived, the man sitting at the head of the long round table stood up and looked around with a gentle yet dignified gaze. "Although there are still ten minutes before the start of the talks, everyone here is very enthusiastic about the economic and trade cooperation between the two countries. Since everyone is here, let's start early! "
There was a round of applause in the conference room. Jiang Chen's eyes fell on the person standing as he followed the crowd and clapped. From his first instinct, the person who spoke first should be the Minister of Economic and Trade.
To confirm Jiang Chen's speculation, the man raised his hand with a smile and said.
"Let me introduce myself. I'm Pan Feng, the Minister of Economic and Trade. The internet industry is a new industry. Our country also attaches great importance to this industry! You are all leaders in the tech field, and I, who used to run a steel factory, can't interrupt. Then I'll leave the time to you guys. You guys should communicate more. If you can reach a consensus, it will be a great benefit to the people of both countries! Now, let's invite the president of Baidu, Comrade Li Yanhong to give a speech. "
In the applause, the man whose hair was combed into a standard three to seven split stood up with a smile.
"Thank you, Minister Pan. Then I'll just say a few words …"
Li Yanhong was worthy of being the boss of Baidu. He had a deep understanding of the development prospects and hot spots of today's Internet industry. Although it was just a casual speech, there were many unique insights. Even Jiang Chen, a layman, listened and nodded.
At the same time, Jiang Chen also noticed that many presidents of tech companies took out small notebooks and began to take notes.
After all, it was the president of Baidu speaking. Baidu was a benchmark in the tech field. Their sneeze could cause a few earthquakes in the tech industry in Hua.
About ten minutes later, in the applause, Li Yanhong finished his speech and nodded to the people who applauded.
Just when Jiang Chen thought that the two Ma Generals would speak together, Li Yanhong looked at him and continued with a smile.
"The point of view about the future of the Internet is just my own opinion. In this regard, I believe the president of Future Group praised by Wall Street, Mr. Jiang Chen, must have a more unique opinion. Regarding the future of the Internet, I hope Mr. Jiang Chen can enlighten me. "
