Of course, with examples like the Iron Lion, they wouldn't dare.

Old Mou hadn't quite grasped the concept yet; the Great Wall and iron artifacts are two different things.

That means the stones and bricks of the city wall won't rust, but they will weather. If they aren't covered with tiles, it will become a ruin.

Well, this conversation is going nowhere. The professor immediately said, "When did you hear that the Egyptian pyramids are tiled? We'll tile the Great Wall too. When did you hear that the pyramids have glass covers? We'll do that too."

But not now, and the government won't let you do that. If you really have too much money to burn, go to the Taihang Mountains, which are close to here, and build a Great Wall covered in tiles there.

It remains a key protected site even thousands of years later.

After that drinking session, the two professors became unemployed.

The ancient architecture company was established specifically to undertake the project of tiling and restoring the Great Wall.

This won't work, that won't work, and Xing Baohua withdrew again. When you ask anyone, they all say the country won't allow it, so what's the point of establishing it?

If the company can't be established, isn't hiring an architecture professor just a waste of money?

Old Mou has one good point: he's never short of projects. Although he's very optimistic about the tile-laying project, after inquiring from various sources, he knows that it won't work out.

As for the money raised through fundraising, it's impossible to get it back.

It can be moved to the next project.

Besides engaging in Far East foreign trade, he also had a project to develop Greater Manchuria.

We had some initial discussions a while ago, where the local government offered to exchange 10 square kilometers of land for Lao Mou's company to develop.

We can use the money raised to go and do development.

Xing Baohua's experience with Lao Mou shows that you can't just fool people; some people are genuinely honest and can be taken seriously.

After that, Xing Baohua stopped caring about the matter and instead spent time in the lab with several R&D staff working on two unusually shaped laptops.

A compact, foldable laptop that can fit in your pocket. Dami Computer previously released a similar pocket laptop, but it was bulky and, due to technological limitations, essentially a desktop computer. It required various modules and connectors to function.

But this time it's different. Not only does it support resistive touchscreens and handwriting input, but the screen can also be flipped over to be used as a tablet.

The screen is 5 inches, a very small flat surface, but the surrounding frame is large. It's roughly equivalent to a 7-inch screen, and can barely fit in a pocket.

The other part has a more high-tech feel to it, based on the compact laptops IBM made in the mid-1990s, with butterfly keyboards.

Because the screen is small, it cannot accommodate a standard keyboard and has been shrunk, making it unsuitable for people who type frequently.

How can I fit a standard-sized keyboard into a laptop? I can only split the keyboard and fold it without affecting its thickness.

When IBM created this laptop, it was not only convenient to carry but also small. In fact, the screen was expensive, so they reduced the size to lower the cost.

The butterfly keyboard is designed using the principle of mechanical lever pulling. The designer is also brilliant; you can see the keyboard assembled with the naked eye as soon as you lift the screen.

Not only does it exude a strong sense of technology, but this laptop also makes you feel really cool.

Xing Baohua originally planned to get a dual-screen laptop, the pull-out type, and a hidden scrolling ball mouse.

However, there's no need to launch so many projects all at once. We can handle them separately, creating a unique flagship phone each year.

Traditional laptops don't really have much to offer in terms of updates beyond annual hardware upgrades.

Despite the restrictions on rice-based electronic devices in Europe and America, Xing Baohua had taken precautions against this situation years ago, and sure enough, he still managed to use it now.

"Parallel imports" refers to foreign products that enter the domestic market without paying taxes; the product itself is still the same.

There are new ones and second-hand ones, but the key point is that they are not covered by the official warranty.

In Europe and America, there are still many users of rice, mainly because it is full of technology and has many functions. It would be very difficult for them to suddenly stop using rice electronic devices.

Therefore, Xing Baohua used Hong Kong and several desert countries to start exporting to other countries.

Due to regional restrictions, warranty service was suspended, and the entire team withdrew, turning the business into a privately owned shop repairing rice and electronic products.

The easily damaged parts were also sent over through online trolls, and the price was much higher than before.

In the lab, Xing Baohua decided to use Loongson chips for the pocket notebook, while the butterfly keyboard notebook would still use Intel chips.

After all, this high-end laptop, due to its price, will have some buyers, but not many shipments. In addition, Xing Baohua has a lot of Intel chips in stock, so he has to find a way to sell them.

Intel is refusing to supply its own chips? Xing Baohua started copying second-generation chips. There are now many domestic manufacturers capable of copying second-generation chips. Even the latest 486 can be copied; that's because Xing Baohua brought over a few lithography machines from the windmill country.

With the machine in hand, you can't glitch even if you want to. The more you try to glitch, the more you'll lose.

The US, along with several other countries, banned the sale of rice, and it seems to have been effective. In any case, you can't find rice-based electronic products in regular stores, but you can still find home appliances, since home appliances don't pose a threat.

A week later, Xie Yingying asked an office clerk to help her move a pile of letters to Xing Baohua's office.

Xing Baohua, who was busy at work, was shocked. He thought he had many fans and was receiving letters from fans all over the country.

"Boss, these letters are all mailed to the company from overseas. I've checked a few, and they're all invoices?"

"A bill? My credit card was stolen?"

"No, it's an invoice mailed to the company by the electronics repair shop. It's for the after-sales repairs they did for Dami Electronics products," Xie Yingying explained.
