"Not bad." Xiao Chen nodded gently. "AI big data is valued by the aerospace and defense sectors, and the two sides have reached a cooperation agreement."
"It's just that bionic technology can't be used for civilian purposes yet, so there's still some way to go, but it's enough."
"You are indeed capable." A hint of jealousy flashed across Xiao Wanli's eyes.
He was jealous of why Xiao Chen, a grandson who grew up in the common people and had a bad background, had such strong abilities?
He had spent countless lavishly training his grandson, but his talent was truly average.
Comparing yourself with others is really frustrating. If Xiao Wei has Xiao Chen's talent, the future of the Xiao family will be immeasurable.
But now, even if he was willing to acknowledge Xiao Chen's identity, he had to lose face and deal with Xiao Chen.
"Thank you for the compliment. It's all luck." Xiao Chen took a sip of wine and then said, "Master Xiao, is there anything wrong?"
"Xiao Chen, Yanjing is not a place that ordinary people can handle."
Xiao Wanli put down his wine glass, his expression serious: "Your ability is just the foundation, but what you need more is background and connections."
"You don't have these two things, so even if Chenhai's technology is amazing, it may not go very far."
"So, what do you want to say?" Xiao Chen glanced at Xiao Wanli.
"Everything you lack, the Xiao family has." Xiao Wanli was very confident about this.
Although the Xiao family's reputation is not as high as that of some of the more famous families in China, it is still an existence that no one in Yanjing can mess with.
“If you want, the Xiao family can protect you.”
"Why would the Xiao family protect me?" Xiao Chen also put down the cup in his hand.
He stared at Xiao Wanli: "We are not related at all. I don't believe you will help me for no reason."
Haha, there is no free lunch in the world. Having lived two lives, how could Xiao Chen not understand this truth?
Why did Xiao Wanli help him? Just because they both had the same surname? What a joke, there were so many people with the surname Xiao.
The reason why Xiao Wanli extended an olive branch to me was simply because he saw the potential for future development of my company.
Xiao Chen also had a hunch that once he got on this old man's pirate ship, it would be difficult to get off.
"Because I have high hopes for you." Xiao Wanli frowned.
He heard the sarcasm in Xiao Chen's tone.
"Xiao Chen, your surname is also Xiao. Maybe we were relatives five hundred years ago." Xiao Wanli revealed his cards.
"As long as you agree to my request and let the Xiao family invest in your Chenhai Group, I promise that we will be like a family in the future."
“Isn’t it good that your company can go further?”
"A family?" Xiao Chen almost laughed. He shook his head and said, "Master Xiao, you probably don't know how to deal with people at the bottom of society."
"Or rather, you disdain it."
"In your eyes, I am just a person from the lowest social class."
"Even if you think highly of me, you still can't let go of your arrogant attitude."
"So what reason do I have to believe that you will treat me as a family member in the future?"
"Xiao Chen, I keep my word." Xiao Wanli frowned.
There were some things he couldn't make clear right now, but Xiao Chen was right, he really didn't know how to deal with people at the bottom of society.
Xiao Chen came from a humble background, and even though he was optimistic about Xiao Chen, he still couldn't let go of his arrogant attitude.
He gave Xiao Chen the feeling that my investment in you is your blessing, and you should agree to me immediately.
Of course, Xiao Chen wouldn't buy his account at all.
"Haha, it's your business if you can do it, it has nothing to do with me."
Xiao Chen was too lazy to talk nonsense with him: "Master Xiao, please leave me here. I have to get off the car."
"Don't let me, a person from a humble background, dirty your luxury car worth tens of millions."
"Xiao Chen, do you know how many people want to get the protection of the Xiao family?" There was a hint of anger in Xiao Wanli's eyes.
"I know, so what?" Xiao Chen stared at him: "I'm different from them, and I don't need your charity."
"Stop the car." Xiao Chen knocked on the car door.
Xiao Wanli took a deep breath and forced himself to suppress the almost manic emotions in his heart.
“Stop the car.”
The driver then slowly stopped the car to the side of the road. Xiao Chen opened the door and walked out.
"Boss Xiao, you don't have to condescend to come to me like this in the future." Xiao Chen turned around and said with a smile: "Not only will you trouble me so much, but I will also make you lose your temper. Why bother?"
"Xiao Chen, this is your last chance. If you don't seize it, you will definitely regret it." Xiao Wanli said with a dark face.
"Thank you for your reminder. I, Xiao Chen, dare not say that I will not regret it in this life, but as for this matter, I really will not regret it."
Xiao Chen smiled slightly, turned and left.
Xiao Wanli slammed his fist on the seat, then waved to the driver to close the door and drove away.
Xiao Chen felt secretly happy that Xiao Wanli had suffered a setback at his hands.
For some reason, he felt uncomfortable when he saw Xiao Wanli's arrogant look.
I called a car and looked at the time. It was already two o'clock in the afternoon.
Xiao Chen contacted Tao Meng and then went to pick her up.
Today we made an appointment to go to Wuji Villa together to visit her master Liu Changqing.
This Baji master can knock a cow unconscious with one palm strike, so he has real kung fu skills.
And Tao Meng's performance last night was indeed amazing.
Xiao Chen just feels that his current combat power is a little weak.
He could handle some ordinary thugs, but if he really met a master, he was afraid he wouldn't be able to handle it.
Wuji Villa is located near Yanjiao, a manor hidden between mountains and water.
Although the area is not large, the antique buildings inside are unique and elegant.
After entering the door, a square of several hundred square meters appeared in front of us.
The square is paved with bluestone, and a brown path in the middle leads directly to the main hall.
The main hall is made of green bricks and tiles, with a glazed roof. There are six large drums on each side of the hall door, and a weapon rack under the steps.
The weapon rack is filled with swords, spears, swords and halberds.
"Senior brother." Tao Meng greeted a man in white training clothes and nodded slightly.
"Junior sister, why haven't you come to see Master for such a long time? Master was still talking about you yesterday." The man said with a smile.
"I'm here now." Tao Meng smiled and pointed at Xiao Chen: "Senior Brother, this is Xiao Chen."
"This is my senior brother, Liu Xiao."
"Hello, Senior Brother," Xiao Chen greeted him, "I'm Xiao Chen."
Liu Xiao nodded gently, then said, "Follow me, Master is waiting."
The two followed him to the main hall, where they saw an old man in his seventies sitting on a throne drinking tea.
Although the old man was old, he was full of energy and his eyes were as bright as lightning. He sat there steadily, with an air of being as immovable as a mountain.
"Master." Tao Meng ran forward with a smile on his face: "I'm here to see you."
This old man is none other than Liu Changqing, the famous Bajiquan master in Yanjing.
