The names of the two investors were clearly displayed on the big screen, along with the investment amount.
Venus Group: 200 billion
Laurent family: 100 billion
A total of 300 billion.
The allocation of the 300 billion was also written below.
The spacecraft carrier project was too big. The expenses of the researchers in the laboratory alone would take up a large portion.
Not to mention the purchase of rare metals and other materials.
The spacecraft carrier proposed by Irwin was different from the current spaceships.
It would reach the speed of light and could travel to galaxies tens of billions of light-years away, just like in many sci-fi movies.
By pressing a button, it could perform a space jump and travel hundreds of millions of miles.
However, with the current level of technology, there was no way to support the successful creation of a spacecraft carrier.
It would have to be pushed back at least 50 years.
That was why the middle-aged man refused to invest. It was a bottomless pit.
But now, when the figure of 300 billion was displayed on the big screen, it was like a slap to his face.
The middle-aged man's face was ashen.
He could understand the Venus Group, but what about the Laurent family?
"..."
All the voices came to an abrupt end.
Whether it was the Laurent family or the Venus Group, these two names were a bomb in Continent O.
The media forgot to film, and the netizens watching the live broadcast went crazy.
[Where's the prophet from yesterday? Come out, he's awesome. Professor Irwin really invited the Laurent family and the Venus Group.]
[He invited both of them! Irwin is awesome!]
[I'm dying of laughter. Did you see that? Family Pazzi's faces are green. Irwin doesn't care about their investment. He has the Laurent family.]
[Venus Group has invested in scientific research projects before, but not with such large numbers. Why do I feel like the Venus Group and the Laurent family are competing?]
[My Surface: Stop fighting! My Heart: Fight, fight!]
Irwin glanced at the reactions of the media and others. He lowered his voice and asked, "See, did you scare them to death?"
The assistant was very happy. "Yes, they did."
Professor Ying was indeed Professor Ying. He shocked everyone with one move.
Venus Group initially planned to invest 30 billion, but they changed their mind.
200 billion!
When the assistant asked for the reason, the other party said that they were not sure either. They only said that it was a direct order from above.
But the assistant was very sure that this investment was also pulled in by Ying Zijin.
The assistant smiled amiably. "Does anyone have any questions?"
"Excuse me, Professor Irwin," a reporter stammered. "Who is this researcher?"
For a project on the level of a space carrier, the identities of the researchers in the laboratory were all encrypted. Even if they were to investigate, it would be impossible to find out.
Only when the project was finally successful would all the researchers be announced according to their contributions.
"Sorry, it's not convenient for us to disclose." The assistant shook his head and smiled. "The only thing I can say is that she is the number one researcher other than the professor."
The number one researcher!
The media was shocked by this word.
Once the aircraft carrier was successfully developed, this researcher would definitely be remembered by the entire world.
The names of some physicists were already flashing through their minds.
"So please rest assured, Mr. Patsy. The laboratory will continue to operate." This time, it was Irwin who spoke. His gaze fell on the middle-aged man. "When the aircraft carrier is successfully developed, we will ask the Laurent family and Venus Group for their opinions."
"Let's see if we should give Mr. Patsy a ticket when the time comes. “
Irwin had a gentle personality and did not usually argue with others.
But this time, Family Pazzi wanted to touch his laboratory.
If not for the timely investment from the Laurent family and Venus Group, even if the laboratory still had money, Family Pazzi would have forcefully suppressed it.
This was something that Irwin could not tolerate.
This time, the cameras in the media's hands were aimed at the middle-aged man. They fought to be the first to ask questions.
"Mr. Patsy, you withdrew your investment, but the Laurent family invested 100 billion instead. Does this mean that they are optimistic about this project and you are not?"
"I heard that Family Pazzi and the Laurent family have a very deep relationship. Mr. Patsy, do you think the Laurent family is deliberately going against you?"
"Mr. Patsy..."
The manager did not expect things to turn out like this. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
They were originally here to suppress Irwin, but now they were the target of ridicule.
The middle-aged man's face was gloomy. He pushed away a reporter in front of him and gritted his teeth. "Return to the family."
**
Ancient martial arts world.
Ye family.
The Ye family was not considered a big family in the ancient martial arts world. It was smaller than the Ling family, but it was considered a leader among the medium-sized families.
The biggest advantage of the Ye family was that there were few disputes, it was safer, and it was more suitable for health.
Yunshan was sent by Fu Yunshen to follow Ying Zijin to the Ye family.
The head of the Ye family had already received the news and came out personally to welcome them.
In the living room, there were also Madam Ye, a few disciples of the Ye family, and some guards.
When they saw the girl come in, they all looked over and were stunned.
Of course, they were only stunned.
Other than that, there was nothing else. The disciples all withdrew their gazes in a disinterested manner.
The ancient martial arts world valued strength the most.
Money, status, and beauty were worldly things that could be easily obtained as long as one's strength was high enough. They were not that precious.
However, Madam Ye kept looking at her, and the more she looked at her, the more she liked her.
"Miss Ying, welcome, welcome." The head of the Ye family was very happy. "The room has been prepared for you. You can stay here as long as you want."
"If you need anything, please let me know. I will prepare it for you immediately."
Ying Zijin nodded slightly. "Thank you."
"No trouble, no trouble at all. It's my duty." The head of the Ye family said. "Ye Ling, take Miss Ying around. Don't neglect her."
"Miss Ying is an ordinary person. Remember to stay away from the school grounds."
Under normal circumstances, ancient warriors were not allowed to attack ordinary people.
However, in a fight between Ancient Martial Artists, as long as a little of the Inner Strength leaked out, it could easily injure an ordinary person.
Yunshan lowered his head and tried to hold back his laughter. He did not dare to speak.
Ordinary people.
He had never seen an ordinary person like Miss Ying.
"Okay, Dad." Ye Ling nodded seriously. "I know."
The head of the Ye family thought for a moment and suddenly said, "Ye Heng, you go with them and protect Miss Ying."
Hearing this, Ye Heng raised his head and opened his mouth. "Dad, you know, I'm going to the ancient medicine world. Miss Qingjia, she …"
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the head of the Ye family. "You can go tomorrow. This is more important."
Ye Heng clenched his fists, and the veins on his forehead jumped.
He was still reluctant, but he could only agree. "Yes, I know."
"Miss Ying, I'll invite you to dinner at the Moon in the Water tonight." The head of the Ye family said kindly. "I don't know if there is anything you don't eat? I'll ask them to pay attention when cooking. "
The Moon in the Water is a small pavilion of the Ye family, located on the lake. At night, you can enjoy the moon.
Ying Zijin thought for a moment. "I don't eat coriander, bean sprouts, garlic, and green onions."
"Okay, okay." The head of the Ye family wrote it down one by one. "Then you go first. If there is anything you don't understand, you can ask them."
Ye Ling stepped forward. "Miss Ying, this way please."
Ying Zijin nodded. "Okay."
Yunshan followed.
Ye Heng clenched his fists. Under the warning gaze of the head of the Ye family, he had to stand up and follow.
The buildings in the ancient martial arts world were no different from the imperial era. They were still the same as before.
Ying Zijin held the wall, her eyelashes drooped, and her gaze was distant, recalling the past.
Until she saw a portrait hanging behind the incense.
She raised her head and her gaze paused.
Ye Ling naturally noticed Ying Qingcang's actions and looked over as well. "Oh, Miss Ying, are you curious about the person in this portrait?" Ying Qingcang asked.
Ying Zijin chuckled. "I'm very curious."
"Miss Ying, you just came to the ancient martial arts world. You may not know that this portrait is the strongest ancient martial artist in our ancient martial arts world." Ye Ling pointed to the person in the portrait and smiled. "He doesn't belong to any family, and I'm not qualified to know his name."
"He doesn't have a fixed residence. Even our family's ancestor doesn't know where he is."
"So we all call him the first ancient martial artist. He …"
Ye Heng, who walked to the front, was impatient.
He turned his head and looked very cold. He directly interrupted Ye Ling's words. "Why are you telling her so much? She's just an ordinary person. What's the use of knowing this?"
