Wang Xuan's mind suddenly became sharpened by Wang Yuebai's words:

"Hmph, Wang Ye has given away the golden goose that laid the eggs. Could it be that his father got his position as head of the family this way?"

On the side, Uncle Gan, who had been waiting for a long time, was also there. He hesitated and said:

“Wang Ye isn’t stupid. Seeing how strong the new energy sector is, he would never give up a profitable business to someone else.”

"Especially since he's crippled, he should have kept such valuable technology in his hands."

Wang Xuan, however, had always been fond of conspiracy theories; if he couldn't figure something out, he wouldn't try to figure it out himself.

"I'll have someone investigate. If I find out that Wang Ye was secretly doing these things with Lu Fan, humph, I'll definitely tell Grandfather." "Wang Qishan hasn't even warmed his seat yet!"

Wang Yuebai blinked and continued to ask:

"Brother, didn't you already send people to track Lu Fan? How's the situation now?"

Wang Xuan 733 shook his wrist, confident:

"Don't worry, we've found the opportunity. This time we're going to give him a good beating."

Uncle Gan also has his own opinion on this:

"It would be best to silence them; this would also be the time to restore the prestige of the fourth branch of the family." Wang Yuebai shared this view.

"This person has a lot of energy. If he gets away, he will definitely bring us a more intense retaliation once he recovers."

Thinking of Wang Meng's hand, Wang Yuebai couldn't help but shudder.

As soon as Zhang Qingyi arrived at work, she dialed Lu Fan's office number, her voice filled with barely suppressed joy:

"President Lu, we just received news that our application has been approved."

"Moreover, the person who contacted me from the city government said that because our new energy project is supported by the state, there will be some additional subsidies."

Lu Fan had already received some information from Wang Mingtang, and now, after hearing Zhang Qingyi's report, he couldn't help but laugh:

"Okay, the subsidy will be deposited into the factory's account."

Zhang Qingyi then asked if the pricing for future orders should be lowered. Lu Fan thought for a moment before replying:

“Lowering prices before large-scale production will dampen customers’ enthusiasm.”

"Besides, the amount of the subsidy is uncertain, let's wait and see," Zhang Qingyi agreed.

Venturing into a new industry like new energy is always fraught with challenges.

Professor Cheng left his original laboratory and returned to China with his research findings.

At first, the labs there didn't think anything of it.

Because of the non-compete agreement, Professor Cheng is required to submit data reports for all his research results in the laboratory.

That's why the other party thought that Professor Cheng's resignation was just that—a resignation—and wouldn't have any impact.

Even though Professor Cheng returned to China with his students and team.

The other party was busy recruiting professors and engineers to continue the experiment and hadn't reacted yet.

Until new energy electric vehicles emerged in China.

They seemed to only then realize that something was wrong:

Why are their research findings ahead of ours?

"Has all the data on new energy batteries been thoroughly analyzed, rendering them no longer of any use?"

"So what are they using now? Our lab's largest investor has sent a lawyer's letter demanding a reasonable explanation from us."

After receiving the lawyer's letter from the largest shareholder, the lab director was in a complete panic. He went straight to his researchers, yelling and shifting blame:

"No, this is our patent, the property of our laboratory. Professor Cheng has gone too far; he has stolen our research results."

Although the laboratory's various patent fees add up to nearly 10 billion yuan annually.

But how could the person in charge be satisfied?

They have received investment sponsorship from shareholders year after year.

There were never any problems before.

The laboratory will also package its research results and offer each shareholder a patent rental fee at an exclusive price.

But now something has gone wrong.

To be more precise, the person in charge couldn't cover it up completely when Professor Cheng led his team away and successfully developed the new energy project.

Professor Cheng has produced results soon after returning to China, which, in the eyes of this profit-driven person in charge, is theft.

The laboratory issued a transnational lawyer's letter, launching an international investigation into Professor Cheng's experimental results.

Meanwhile, in China, many companies and enterprises are also contacting Lu Fan's Fanyue Group.

Assistant Zhu compiled a list of the companies seeking cooperation, along with their respective cooperation terms, and presented the report to Lu Fan.

"We have contacted about two hundred companies, ranging from local to multinational corporations."

“They all want to cooperate and want to meet with the company’s leaders.”

As Lu Fan looked at the progress report of the assembly line workshop at the car factory, he already had new plans for the next stage of development of the new energy project.

Upon hearing Assistant Zhu's report, he refused without hesitation:

"We have no plans to cooperate at the moment. Please provide a written statement from the company to politely decline."
