The secretary didn't understand either and could only turn on the speakerphone.
The person on the other end knew that this was a call from the Director of the Scientific Research Bureau, so his tone was very respectful, and his nervousness could be heard from the occasional tremors in his voice during pauses. Fortunately, he was well organized and quickly explained the cause and effect of the matter clearly.
After hearing what he said, everyone in the lab was silent for a moment. The director of the special department looked strange: "You mean, He Qianjian scared himself and fell into the ICU?"
It's no wonder that Director Ren of the Special Department felt strange. Even Jiang Chen, who knew something about the prison situation, could never have imagined how terrible the prisoner in the same cell with He Qianjian was, which made He Qianjian forget that he was still standing on the stage frame when he stretched out his hand, and backed away frantically, then lost his balance and fell down, landing on the untied steel bars and puncturing his lung tube.
If they hadn't said that He Qianjian's condition was somewhat serious, Jiang Chen would have suspected that he did this on purpose in order to obtain medical parole.
No one answered the Special Department Minister's words, but silence was the best answer.
Director Wang looked at the gentle and silent old man standing in the middle, wanting to ask for his opinion.
The old man just waved his hand to express his attitude that he did not intend to interfere in the matter.
Director Wang and the head of the special department walked aside, discussed in a low voice, and quickly gave instructions to their subordinates. It was only five minutes later that they came back and everything had been arranged.
"Xiao Jiang, once He Qianjian's condition stabilizes, we will send someone to send him to a special hospital for management, and we will contact you then."
Jiang Chen thought he would have to wait at least two or three days, but he did not expect to receive a call from the Secretary General of the Scientific Research Bureau early the next morning, and the car escorting him was already waiting downstairs.
"Mr. Jiang, please take a seat."
The driver was still Qian Yi, but the other bodyguard was replaced by two strangers who had never been seen before. The person who was talking was one of them. He and Jiang Chen were sitting in the back seat. He had an ordinary appearance and smiled at everyone he met.
The two briefly introduced themselves and quickly explained their destination and the people they were about to meet.
"This time the meeting will be held at the headquarters of the Research Department in District 10... That's basically it. Apart from that, you can ask me any other questions you have."
Jiang Chen looked calm. Even though he realized after getting on the bus that the purpose and destination of this trip were different from what he had expected, and saw two strangers he had never seen before, he did not show the slightest bit of surprise on his face. He just said calmly, "I understand."
The man who was speaking didn't say anything more, but he couldn't help but glance at the boy beside him vaguely.
He is just in his early twenties, but he is so calm after knowing that he is about to meet some of the most powerful leaders in the country. Is he pretending to be calm, or is he really so steady?
The man couldn't tell whether it was the former or the latter. He had been working in the special department's scientific research group for more than ten years. During this period, he had protected many people whose files were sealed and whose confidentiality level was extremely high. After so many years of experience, he deeply understood one truth: those amazing geniuses could never be speculated with ordinary people's common sense.
An ordinary twenty-year-old boy knows that he is about to meet those people. Most of them will at least be excited, even if they are not restless. No matter how well they disguise themselves, impatience is inevitable in their eyes.
But the boy in front of him was no ordinary twenty-year-old boy. If he were to say, he had indeed seen a few top-secret files, but there was only one so young as this one. Based on this point alone, the men were not surprised at how calm he behaved.
Jiang Chen didn't know what the man next to him was thinking. At this moment, his head was working rapidly, analyzing and calculating the current situation and the situations that might happen in the future.
When he received the call from the secretary-general before, he just thought that He Qianjian was transferred to another hospital, so they asked him to come over. He went out without thinking much, until he saw the two strange bodyguards in the car and heard what they said, then he realized that this trip was not simple.
However, after the car started, he found that the cars nearby that seemed to have just started or happened to pass by all met him smoothly after a few blocks. There were even other vehicles on the way that gradually formed a protection circle with his car as the center. Jiang Chen knew that today's meeting might be more serious and urgent than what his bodyguard had just revealed and what he had imagined.
For a long period of time in his previous life, Jiang Chen lived under such a high level of confidentiality, even more than that, so he was very sensitive to the fact that the people sitting in these seemingly coincidental vehicles were actually plainclothes officers sent here to protect him.
Previously, he thought that after the report was submitted, it would take some time for the leader to respond. He also thought that the meeting he expected would not be held until at least three days later. However, he did not expect that he had always underestimated the country's execution ability.
The car passed a special checkpoint and drove for more than ten minutes before finally stopping in front of the Science and Technology Bureau building.
Jiang Chen walked quickly and finally stopped in front of the door of the highest conference room. The soldiers at the door saluted him and opened the door of the conference room.
This conference room is very large and can accommodate at least a thousand people, but there are less than a hundred people sitting inside at this moment, so it looks a bit empty.
When Jiang Chen entered, some people looked up at him. Most of them did not recognize him, but were surprised at his youth and could not help but look at him a few more times.
Several people sitting in the center of the audience also looked over. The expressionless old man saw Jiang Chen, smiled a little, and waved to him.
Jiang Chen walked quickly, and under the more surprised gazes of the crowd, he walked quickly to the old man's side, and greeted these leaders who usually only appeared in the news in a low-key and calm manner.
The old man called Jiang Chen over, not only to reveal the real content of today's meeting, but also because he was worried that he would be nervous. Now seeing that he was calm, he felt relaxed and smiled even more.
The two men talked in low voices, attracting a lot of attention. People sitting in the back rows looked forward. The old man was kind and the young man was smiling. The background was a huge national flag on the stage a few meters away and the national emblem above the beam. For some reason, some people had red eyes.
Not long after, Jiang Chen got the specific content of the meeting from the old man. It was almost the same as what he guessed, but he didn't expect that the old man would let him be the main speaker of the meeting.
Without any preparation or prior warning, a young man in his early twenties stepped into the country's top circle in all senses and industries for the first time, participating in a meeting that 99.99% of the people in the country did not even have the right to know about, and was appointed to be the keynote speaker of the entire meeting.
Can he do it?
The old man has gentle features, but his eyes are as clear and sharp as an eagle's.
Jiang Chen: "I can."
As soon as the words fell, someone whispered to the old man, "Everyone is here."
The old man restrained his smile, looked at Jiang Chen, and patted his shoulder gently: "Now it's your time."
