In the following month, the officials of all continents sent representatives to Eco Science City in secret to observe and purchase several types of weapons and technologies that Blacklight Biotechnology focused on.
Each continent was deeply vigilant about the various weapon technologies owned by Blacklight Biotechnology.
In terms of robot AI technology alone, Blacklight Biotechnology had walked to the forefront of the world. Perhaps in the military laboratories of each continent, there was indeed similar super AI with intelligence, but it was still in a state of constant debugging and improvement.
To reach the maturity of the AI of Blacklight Biotechnology robots, there was still more than ten years to go, not to mention those amazing individual air defense systems.
In the ranks of drones, the "ion pulse vector propulsion device" produced by Blacklight Biotechnology was a big hit. The representatives sent by the various continents might not decide to buy the XTN series immediately, but they would definitely immediately buy all the Mark drone series from Model 001 to Model 023.
This group of people was after the "ion pulse vector propulsion device" inside. In the minds of all those who were sensitive to military affairs, such an idea came to mind at the same time —
"If this almost completely silent ion device is used to replace the propellers of helicopters and the thrusters of submarines, wouldn't it be invincible?"
It was precisely with the idea of trying to crack the "ion pulse vector propulsion device" that the Mark drone series received a large number of orders from various continents in a month. Among them, Northern America ordered a total of 800 units of all drone models, totaling 1.3 billion US dollars, Mainland China ordered 1,500 units, totaling 2 billion US dollars, and the North Sea Continent ordered 600 units, totaling 800 million US dollars.
After a few orders, Chen Chen had just opened his business and it was a big success. The total amount of orders exceeded 6 billion US dollars.
However, just as the various continents were preparing to purchase new system technologies such as "directional aiming", "long-range environmental sensing", and "Coriolis effect simulation", Zhou Yi, who was in charge of the weapons sales, did not agree. Instead, he made a request.
"Everyone, although these technologies are extremely precious, what we at Blacklight Biotechnology want is not money but long-term development."
At this time, Zhou Yi, who was wearing gold-rimmed glasses, said to the hall full of senior federal officials, his voice was neither humble nor overbearing. "I believe you have also heard that our Blacklight Biotechnology has sent delegations to various continents and even regions to seek further cooperation, so we can pay in another way."
"Don't keep us guessing. If Blacklight Biotechnology doesn't want money, what does it want?"
"No money? Are you giving it to us for free? "
"Give me a price, maybe we can cooperate further …"
The audience immediately shouted in a commotion.
Zhou Yi smiled. "We, Blacklight Biotechnology, are preparing to establish branches in various continents in order to carry out research and drug approval locally. At the same time, we also want to open sanatoriums with Blacklight Biotechnology's characteristics, so we don't need this money. We only need the official policies behind you!"
Hearing this, everyone's expression changed.
"I'd rather you guys ask for money …"
Someone muttered. Did they want to expand the sanatorium all over the world? There was no one in the world who did not know that Blacklight Biotechnology's sanatorium had become a money-grubbing den. It was a blatant windfall. Now, they even wanted the local government to give them preferential treatment. What kind of wolfish ambition was this?
Everyone was secretly shocked, but when they thought about it carefully, the truth was that Blacklight Biotechnology's business had always been limited to Africa and had never ventured outside. Even in a region like Africa where resources were scarce, it had developed into such a corporate empire.
If it was allowed to stretch out its tentacles and take root in every corner of the world, what kind of behemoth would it become?
In a few years' time, Blacklight Biotechnology would become the world's largest corporation.
Thinking of this, everyone did not want to agree immediately. They just replied that they needed to report to their superiors.
Of course, Zhou Yi had no objection. In fact, he also knew that this kind of thing could not be rushed. These were all tasks assigned to him by Qian Wenhuan, and he heard that this task was also the intention of "that person".
Now, the CEO of Blacklight Biotechnology headquarters, Xia Yin, had led a public relations team of hundreds of people and was looking for business cooperation all over the world. If he could make a strong assist on his side, the future would naturally be bright and the benefits would be great.
After today's activities were over, he and Qian Wenhuan sent the high-ranking officials and representatives of the various continents back to the hotel. Zhou Yi was just about to say goodbye and immediately return to his residence to have a good sleep when Qian Wenhuan stopped him.
"President Qian?"
Zhou Yi looked at Qian Wenhuan with some apprehension. He did not know if he had done something wrong when he explained to the important officials of the various continents during the day.
"Don't be nervous. Because of the hundreds of millions of orders in the past few days, someone has invited us to dinner."
Qian Wenhuan walked to his car and the sturdy secretary next to him immediately opened the door, but he did not go in. Instead, he waved at Zhou Yi. "Get in the car, don't let others wait for us for too long."
"Hey, shouldn't all the colleagues in the publicity department be invited to the celebration banquet?"
Zhou Yi took off his glasses and wiped them with his sleeve, a little puzzled.
"This is not a celebration banquet. It's just a celebration for us in advance. The celebration banquet can only be held after this group of people leaves."
Qian Wenhuan explained and then raised his eyebrows. "What are you waiting for? Get in the car quickly."
"Oh, okay!"
Only then did Zhou Yi obediently get in the car from the other side and sit in the back row with Qian Wenhuan.
Then, there was an awkward silence.
Zhou Yi did not ask who had invited him to dinner. Asking less and doing more was the way to survive in the workplace. It was probably Qian Wenhuan who had asked his subordinate to drink with him. After being in the workplace for so many years, of course, he was well aware of this.
In fact, Zhou Yi did not think very highly of this boss who was not much older than himself. The other party had no education and no image. He had heard people say that the reason why Qian Wenhuan was able to sit in this position today was all because he followed that person early.
Coupled with his ability to flatter, he sat in the position of CEO of the African branch of Blacklight Biotechnology for many years.
Although it was the African branch, everyone knew that the power of the CEO of this branch was much greater than that of the CEO of the headquarters. Even if he nominally had to accept the command of General Manager Xia Yin, in fact, Qian Wenhuan did not care about anyone except that person.
These thoughts flashed through Zhou Yi's mind, but of course, he would not show it. At this time, he became even more respectful.
"Little Zhou, how old are you this year? Are you married yet?"
Suddenly, Qian Wenhuan broke the silence and looked at Zhou Yi with a pleasant expression.
"I'm twenty-eight years old this year and I haven't married yet."
Zhou Yi smiled shyly, shook his head and replied, "I just broke up with my girlfriend before going abroad. I'm going to fight for a few more years to get married."
"You haven't married yet at twenty-eight. When I was your age, my daughter was already three years old."
Qian Wenhuan sighed. He could not help but recall the scene four years ago. In fact, what he did not say was that it was when he was twenty-eight years old that he met Chen Chen and joined Blacklight Biotechnology at the same time. After that, the trajectory of his life changed...
"CEO Qian, have your relatives been brought over as well?"
Zhou Yi suddenly asked, "I heard that many people have brought their relatives over here."
"My wife and daughter came, but my parents didn't come."
Qian Wenhuan did not put on any airs and replied directly, "My parents don't want to leave their hometown and come abroad, and I can't force them, but it doesn't matter. Anyway, our Blacklight Biotechnology has already planned to build sanatoriums all over the world. When the time comes, it's the same wherever you do your recuperation. It's fine even if you don't go abroad.
"If you want to bring your parents over, it's fine. Anyway, the community has already assigned you a house and you know the security here. As long as you don't leave the Eco Science City, security can be guaranteed. Moreover, as the relatives of employees, your parents also have priority in obtaining recuperation."
Only then did Zhou Yi suddenly nod his head.
Then, the two of them did not speak all the way until they came to the front of a five-star hotel in the center of the Eco Science City. The car stopped.
Those who could stay here were almost all rich and respectable people from all over the world. Zhou Yi looked straight ahead and obediently followed behind Qian Wenhuan until Qian Wenhuan led him into a private room at the edge of the second floor.
The private room as a whole was not large, only about ten square meters in size. In the center of the private room was a round table with a table full of dishes.
These were not the main point. The real point was that there was only one person sitting in the private room.
This was a young man, even younger than himself. At first glance, he looked very ordinary, but if one looked closely, one would find that he had a pair of extremely unique eyes.
It was a pair of eyes as dark as ink, revealing sharpness, vastness, and depth, like a bottomless abyss. It seemed that as long as he raised his head and looked at someone, it would be enough to make them sink.
It was a pair of eyes with magic power …
Looking at the appearance of this young man, Zhou Yi only felt that the other party seemed to be a little familiar. He subconsciously searched his memory and was immediately shocked!
This young man turned out to be the legend?
"You're Chen, Mr. Chen!"
Subconsciously, Zhou Yi suddenly blurted out.
"It's me."
The young man raised his head in surprise, glanced at Zhou Yi, then nodded and replied, "My appearance is relatively ordinary. If I'm not an acquaintance, few people can recognize me at a glance."
"Are you really Mr. Chen?"
Zhou Yi took a deep breath and felt his whole body tremble. He thought that the person drinking with Qian Wenhuan was only other senior executives of Blacklight Biotechnology, but he never expected that the other party turned out to be the founder of Blacklight Biotechnology, Chen Chen!
Hearing Zhou Yi's nonsense, Chen Chen suddenly laughed. He pointed to the seat opposite and said to the two of them, "What are you still standing for, sit down."
"Okay."
Qian Wenhuan did not stand on ceremony and pulled Zhou Yi to sit down.
It was not until this time that Zhou Yi realized that his second question was really not up to standard. He suddenly felt annoyed. He did not expect to make such a mistake the first time he met the founder of Blacklight Biotechnology.
For a moment, Zhou Yi wished he could find a hole in the ground to hide in.
"This must be Mr. Zhou Yi. He's really a talented man, much better than you, Old Qian."
However, Chen Chen did not care about this. When the two of them sat down, he immediately teased.
"That's for sure."
Hearing Chen Chen's teasing, Qian Wenhuan was not angry. Instead, he smiled bitterly. "When I was at Preston Biotechnology, I was good at negotiation and sales. It's just that because of my appearance, my performance has been greatly reduced. Otherwise, I wouldn't just be a sales manager."
"Mr. Chen, you flatter me."
Zhou Yi also said quickly. At the same time, he subconsciously raised his arm, preparing to look for a wine dispenser and a wine glass to punish himself by drinking three glasses.
However, he was immediately dumbfounded because in addition to the dishes on the table, there were only three bottles of Sprite and nothing else.
"Hahahaha!"
Seeing Zhou Yi's movements, Qian Wenhuan suddenly laughed. "Little Zhou, are you looking for a wine glass? There's no need. The boss doesn't drink and this is a foreign country. There's no such thing as a wine table culture. Just relax and eat casually. "
"I see..."
Only then did Zhou Yi take a bite of food to hide his embarrassment.
"You've done a good job in the past half a month."
Chen Chen did not care about this. He just said casually, "Today, I'm just looking for you, Old Qian, to learn about the recent situation and to meet this top student sent by the headquarters. There's no other meaning. However, an order of six billion may be a lot for us, but in fact, it's just a drop in the bucket for the various continents."
As he said this, Chen Chen thought for a moment. "I believe this is just an appetizer. The real highlight is still in the next three months."
"Indeed."
Qian Wenhuan was also thoughtful. "Now, all the continents have ordered the Mark drone series. When they confirm the superior performance of our XTN robot series, orders will come pouring in like mushrooms after a spring rain. That's when we'll have a bumper harvest."
"In fact, I don't care much about these. What I really care about is the policies we can obtain after opening branches in each continent."
Chen Chen nodded. "So, I hope you can work harder on various weapon technologies and strive to exchange for more favorable local policies. For this, we can give up some of the benefits."
"Understood."
"Understood!"
Qian Wenhuan and Zhou Yi quickly agreed.
"In addition, I have one more thing I need you to do."
At this moment, Chen Chen's expression suddenly became serious.
