Li Guangya was in a panic.
He had just left Shanghai yesterday. He hadn't even sat in his office chair when a call from the AIIB made him rush back from Beijing.
"SoftBank's Morinaga announced at the board meeting that he intends to rope in Academician Lu to establish the East Asia Group. I don't think he's joking. Do as you see fit."
The person who called was Zhong Ziyu, the managing director appointed by the AIIB to East Asia Power.
Li Guangya still had some impressions of the man wearing gold-rimmed glasses. Although that guy's current status wasn't enough to enter his eyes, in his impression, that person could be considered a capable character.
It was precisely because of this that the phone call made Li Guangya panic.
If it were someone else, he would probably think of it as a joke, but this person was Lu Zhou, the Academician Lu who ignited the light of controllable fusion and spread bright optical cables across the ocean …
The same stock in the hands of an ordinary person was just a huge sum of money.
And in the hands of that person, it was the nuclear button, or at least the equivalent superweapon.
With his prestige in the Pan-Asian Cooperation, he might be able to do it.
On the way from the station to Jin Ling University, Li Guangya, who was sitting in the maglev car, ordered his office assistant to inform Jin Ling University of his visit. On the other hand, he called Secretary-General Wu Shuhua, who was visiting abroad, and informed her of the situation here.
"This is the mess you caused, you'd better think of a way to solve it!"
Unsurprisingly, after hearing the news, Wu Shuhua immediately flipped out.
Listening to the accusations from his colleagues, Li Guangya pinched his eyebrows with his index finger and thumb and spoke with a headache.
"What can I do? Who would have thought that those stocks are still in his hands? "
"If his existence threatens the stability of the Pan-Asian Cooperation, I advise you to give up as soon as possible … Now it's not a matter of the space elevator or becoming great again, but his existence may become the fuse that will cause us to slide into a deeper abyss. Although I don't recommend doing this, if you have to — "
"Impossible!" Hearing Secretary-General Wu's words, Li Guangya immediately rejected it. "With his prestige in Asia and even the world, if anything happens to him, it will be a heavy blow to our alliance!"
After a pause, he slowed down his tone and continued.
"The situation isn't that bad yet. Don't think too much about it. I'm on my way to Jin Ling University. I'll talk to him later. I'll probably call you later. "
Wu Shuhua: "I hope so!"
The call ended.
Li Guangya turned off the holographic beam and leaned against the seat with a bitter smile on his face.
Was the situation really not that bad?
This was probably the first time since he took office that he didn't have any confidence in what he said.
A giant spanning energy, communications, and industrial fields. Forget about the Pan-Asian Cooperation, the entire world would tremble because of its birth.
The first to kneel was likely to be the Pan-Asian Cooperation itself …
He could even imagine how such an oligarch would steal all the achievements of the Pan-Asian Cooperation over the past half century.
Was it possible for this oligarch to be born?
It was hard to say.
Otherwise, Director Zhong wouldn't have called him.
After all, Academician Lu held not only stocks, but also the academic prestige that dominated this land for a century, as well as the desire of countless Pan-Asian people for greatness again.
Thinking of this, Li Guangya's hands couldn't help but tremble.
Although it was he who dug that man out of the grave and pushed him back to the throne, now the situation was obviously starting to become a little out of his control.
As for whether Academician Lu himself had the motive to merge TEPCO, TEPCO, and TEPCO …
He really didn't dare to take the risk.
After all, it was impossible for a mortal to guess what a monster with an IQ far beyond ordinary people was thinking.
Take Newton for example.
Many people only knew that Sir Newton studied theology in his later years, but they ignored another great achievement in his later years.
In his later years, this guy felt that bullying Hook in the Academy of Sciences was not enough, so he went to become the director of the British Mint and worked in this position for 28 years.
What was the concept of the British Mint in the 18th century? This thing was equivalent to the central bank president of the number one sea power at that time, more prestigious than the Fed president in the 21st century.
And how rich was this guy?
There were no specific documents that recorded his savings, but take Sir Newton's failed investment experience as an example. Back then, he lost a total of 20,000 pounds because he was involved in the famous "South Sea Company Stock Bubble" in European financial history.
According to the guidance price of gold by "President Niu" himself in September 1717, one ounce of gold could be exchanged for 3 pounds, 17 shillings, and 10 pence. With the gold production and reserves in the 17th century, one could imagine how huge a sum of 20,000 pounds was.
To be able to afford a loss of twenty thousand pounds, even if one did not have the wealth to rival a country, one would at least be the wealthiest in the region.
It was certain that smart people could thrive in any era, but who could guarantee that Academician Lu would return to his old career and become a scholar?
Even Newton, a child prodigy who could build windmills and water clocks with his bare hands in his childhood, later gave up academia and entered the vanity market. Who could guarantee that Academician Lu would still be a mathematics professor in the future?
With his mathematical skills, wouldn't it be more fun to dominate the financial market?
The more Li Guangya thought about it, the more panicked he became.
He really didn't expect that those shares were not liquidated in the bankruptcy of Star Sky Technology half a century ago. Instead, they were placed in a safe deposit box in the Bank of China for a century.
Is this f * cking crazy?
With those shares, how could Star Sky Technology go bankrupt?! He even privatized the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study and threw it directly to the education department of the Pan-Asian Cooperation …
Unless there was only one possibility, which was that Lu Zhou had planned it from the beginning.
Chairman Li Guangya rushed back to the Yangtze River Delta city group overnight. After getting off the maglev train in Jinling, he rushed to Jin Ling University.
According to the news he heard, Lu Zhou came here early in the morning.
In any case, he had to find Lu Zhou before Softbank contacted him. At the very least, he had to find him first …
He soon arrived at Jin Ling University.
Li Guangya saw Principal Cai Mingrui in the parking lot at the school gate. He didn't have time to say a word. He immediately went straight to the point.
"Where is Academician Lu? Where is he now? "
Seeing the anxious expression on Chairman Li Guangya's face, Cai Mingrui was slightly stunned. He frowned inexplicably and spoke.
"Academician Lu is in the laboratory … Is there a problem?"
"Laboratory?" Hearing this unexpected answer, Li Guangya was also stunned. He subconsciously asked, "What experiment is he doing?"
Principal Cai shook his head.
"I don't know this … I only remember that he borrowed the materials science laboratory. Should I ask for you?"
"No need to ask, just take me there!"
Li Guangya said in a serious tone as he looked at Principal Cai, who was surprised.
"I have something important to talk to him about!"
"I'm not kidding, this is related to the future of the Pan-Asian Cooperation!"
