Chapter 166: The other party's goal is not money
Deng Xiuzhen hurried to the place Zhao Shuliang mentioned. Zhao Shuliang had been waiting there for a long time, and when he saw Deng Xiuzhen coming, he hurried to greet her.
"What's wrong with Wenjing?" Deng Xiuzhen ran over quickly, sweat oozing from her forehead.
"Come and sit down and talk." Zhao Shuliang said as he pulled Deng Xiuzhen to sit down and poured her a glass of water.
Deng Xiuzhen took the cup of water and looked at Zhao Shuliang eagerly.
Zhao Shuliang sighed and said, "Wen Jing is studying abroad, isn't she? She was working on a project with her advisor, but some of the data from that project got leaked. It was Wen Jing who leaked it."
"Impossible! I know Wen Jing's personality!" Deng Xiuzhen didn't believe it and became a little agitated.
"We sent people to investigate, and it was indeed Wen Jing who did it. She didn't do it on purpose, it was because of Wen Xin. Wen Jing is excellent in every way, except... Alas!" Zhao Shuliang sighed again.
"Because of Wen Xin? How did Wen Xin get involved with Wen Jing?" Deng Xiuzhen suddenly paused. She thought of what Wen Xin had done.
“Wen Xin was also taken advantage of. Someone knew Wen Jing’s family connections and deliberately set up a competition so that Wen Xin’s teacher would encourage her to participate.
Then I gave her special tutoring, gave her opportunities, and guided her to seek advice from Wen Jing.
Wen Jing heard that it was her independent research and she would be directly admitted to Jinghua University after winning the competition, so she was naturally very dedicated. The data was leaked just like that. "Zhao Shuliang shook his head and sighed again.
"How is Wen Jing now?" Deng Xiuzhen was furious and wanted to slap Wen Xin to death. But what would it matter if she slapped Wen Xin to death?
"She's been locked up..."
"Locked up? Where?" Deng Xiuzhen jumped up. She didn't expect the matter to be so serious.
"Don't worry, there is a solution!" Zhao Shuliang signaled Deng Xiuzhen not to get excited.
Deng Xiuzhen indeed calmed down and looked at Zhao Shuliang, waiting for his next words.
"The other party has now made two demands, saying that as long as one of them is met, Wen Jing will not be held responsible."
"Where is Wen Jing being held? Is she safe? Will she suffer?" Deng Xiuzhen was a little dazed.
Zhao Shuliang smiled bitterly and said: Can you please listen to the main point?
Deng Xiuzhen suppressed her worries and nodded.
"The other party said that they either need to help them develop the research project or pay them 30 million MiGold."
"Help them finish the project? That's what they are doing, and I haven't finished it yet. How much can Wen Jing leak? This can't be a trap, right?" Deng Xiuzhen suddenly realized something.
"Well, it's a trap. Their target is the project I'm currently developing. These people must have been planning this for a long time. I'm afraid that letting Wen Jing go out to study is just a step in their plan." Zhao Shuliang sighed again.
"What should we do now?" Deng Xiuzhen asked.
"We can only wait and see."
"But Wen Jing..."
"We have people protecting her."
"But……"
"We have invested too much manpower and material resources in this project, and this is secondary. The main thing is that if this project is given up, we will have no good way out for a while, and Mr. Zheng's company may collapse..." Zhao Shuliang explained softly.
Deng Xiuzhen lowered her head and remained silent.
"What are you researching?" Deng Xiuzhen looked up and asked after a while.
"A smart phone is a mobile phone with various functions added. It can make calls, play games, and install other devices..." Zhao Shuliang introduced patiently.
"If we can find a better project, can you give up your current project?" Deng Xiuzhen looked at Zhao Shuliang and asked softly.
Zhao Shuliang nodded and said, "Sure. What project? When can you come up with a plan?"
"Uncle Zhao, please rescue Wen Jing as soon as possible. I will find a way to deal with the project."
"Okay," Zhao Shuliang replied.
"Thank you, Uncle Zhao!" Deng Xiuzhen said as she ran back.
Zhao Shuliang looked at her back, sighed again, took out his cell phone and called: "Release Qin Wenjing, and I will give you the information I have."
…
"Are you willing to give away half your life's hard work just for a granddaughter who is not related to you by blood?"
Zhao Shuliang had just hung up the phone when he heard a voice behind him.
I turned around and saw a strange man. He was tall and thin, with three-dimensional features, and he looked a bit fierce. But his face was pale and sickly, which made his fierceness lack strength.
Zhao Shuliang looked at the other person and did not respond.
The man didn't mind, and said with a hearty smile: "Let me introduce myself, Ma Xiaoen, I'm 32 years old, I've heard of Mr. Zhao for a long time, and I'd like to invite you to join my team and develop the Internet era together."
"Internet age?" Zhao Shuliang asked?
"Yes, what I lack now is funds and technical personnel. As long as you are willing to join us, your future achievements will surely be greater and more far-reaching than your current research!" Ma Xiaoen looked sick, but his words and actions were very confident.
Zhao Shuliang smiled and said, "You picked a really good time. Did you calculate it carefully?"
Ma Xiaoen also smiled and said: "I have been asking about you for a long time, but I have been hesitating whether to look for you.
In some aspects, you are too powerful. I am worried that once I give you the information, you will quickly grasp the essence. If you stab me in the back at that time, I will not be able to protect myself, let alone my research results.
Today, seeing that you are willing to give up your entire life's work for someone who is not related to you by blood, as a person who values love and friendship like you, what reason do I have for not believing in you?
Mr. Zhao, believe me, mobile phones are a good project, but they can only make it easier for people to communicate, while my research can make the world take off! "
Zhao Shuliang stared at Ma Xiaoen for a long time, and finally made up his mind: "How about I take you to meet my boss?"
"Okay!" Although Ma Xiaoen looked sick, he had a cheerful personality.
Zheng Ying was sitting in the office thinking about something. She went to look for the two Seans mentioned by Deng Xiuzhen and found them.
But they were not the ones she was looking for.
When Zhao Shuliang said he wanted to exchange the research project for Qin Wenjing, she hesitated. After all, the impact on the company would be huge.
In the past two years, she invested a lot of human, material and financial resources into this project. When it was almost successful, she gave it all up for someone else's child. She is not that generous.
But the core technology all lies in Zhao Shuliang, and if she disagrees, she can't stop Zhao Shuliang's decision.
As for the other party's choice between two options, there is no need to consider the second condition at all.
Because it's just a sleight of hand.
The other party's purpose is not the money. Once you agree to give them the money, they will immediately find some unfounded reasons to change their mind and then make other demands.
"Mr. Zheng, I have found a new project. Do you have time? If I do, I will bring him to see you!" Zhao Shuliang's voice changed from its previous decadent tone to an excitement that could not be suppressed.
