Chapter 904: Old Bull Returns to the Capital

An office in the capital.

"Report, Consultant Zhang and his family have just returned to Villa No. 1 of Shenzhen Peace College."

Mr. Yang, who was processing documents on his desk, put down his pen, took off his glasses, looked up at the secretary standing in front of the desk, picked up the large teacup beside him with his left hand, and said with a smile, "I'm glad you're back!"

"Recently, in order to assign jobs to graduates of Shenzhen Peace College, people have been blocking my house every evening, demanding to be released. But is this something I can handle?"

The middle-aged male secretary, who had been standing upright, noticed that Mr. Yang had raised his teacup a little too high. He hurriedly picked up the rattan kettle beside him and, while bending over to fill it for Mr. Yang, he smiled and agreed, "Looking at the Heping Group's investment in coastal areas, I'm afraid they'll assign those graduates there."

Elder Yang stood up and did chest expansion exercises while saying, "Some people come to me every day because they are worried about this kind of situation."

The male secretary put down the kettle and placed the teacup in the left hand position that Mr. Yang used to. Then he responded, "I heard that the companies and factories that accepted shares from the Heping Group received not only financial support but also technical support."

"They are probably worried that if those companies and factories develop, they will squeeze the living space of other companies and factories."

"Science and technology are the primary productive forces!" Old Yang walked around the desk, patted his secretary on the shoulder, and ignored his secretary's subtle intention of speaking in favor of the mechanical and electrical people, and walked straight out the door.

The male secretary followed closely behind, and then heard Mr. Yang speak again, "This is market competition. Without solid technology, you will be eliminated by the market!"

"However, I have already asked Elder Hua to communicate with us. I believe Consultant Zhang will not let us down."

Seeing Mr. Yang doing his radio calisthenics, the male secretary stood a little behind him and followed along, laughing, "Speaking of which, Consultant Zhang is truly remarkable. He actually managed to get that guy to agree to come over and apologize in person!"

Yang Lao changed his posture and glanced at his secretary casually. "A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. A pile that stands out on the shore will be swept away by the current. A person who stands out from others will be criticized by the crowd."

……

Shenzhen Peace College, Villa No. 1.

"Heping, Brigade Commander Chu wants to talk to you about something. Is it convenient for you now?" Old Hua came over with a square-faced burly man and stopped Zhang Heping who had just left the house.

Zhang Heping walked over to a black bulletproof car and casually responded, "I'm going to the remote control center. Should we talk in the car or while we're walking?"

Mr. Hua looked at the burly man next to him and did not answer Zhang Heping.

This sturdy man known as Brigade Commander Chu is Chu Bei, the brigade commander of three regiments stationed around Shenzhen Peace College who was urgently transferred after the January 1th bombing.

There was only one battalion of troops stationed on Nanshan Mountain before, and it was originally thought that it was enough, but no one expected that the Japanese-Magnesium spies would be so rampant.

The key point is that those spies also paid money to bribe the locals!

In addition, as Shenzhen Heping Hospital receives more and more retirees, the security level has been raised.

"Hello, Advisor Zhang!" Brigade Commander Chu Bei saluted, then shook hands with Zhang Heping, who extended his right hand. Then he explained his intention, "Look, we want to transform the three regiments stationed here into an electronic information-based force."

"Cooperate with Shenzhen's smart city system and the high-tech weapons in the underground base to better protect the security here."

Zhang Heping looked at Elder Hua and asked doubtfully, "It's enough for Elder Hua to just nod. Why are you asking me?"

Elder Hua looked at the burly Brigadier General Chu and said with a smile, "I told you just now, get straight to the point and don't waste Advisor Zhang's time."

Brigadier General Chu raised his right hand and scratched his head, then smiled sheepishly and said, "Then I'll be frank. We want to recruit some graduates from here to join our army and help us..."

"Sure!" Without waiting for the other party to finish, Zhang Heping said while looking at the watch on his left wrist, "Talk to Vice Deans Qian and Deng about this. Ask them to give me a copy of the graduate job placement plan."

"Is there anything else?" Zhang Heping said, glancing at Brigade Commander Chu and Mr. Hua.

The much younger Mr. Hua asked with a hint of surprise, "Heping, are you saying that we should let the college arrange the jobs for those graduates on its own? And not consider letting them go to the Heping Group?"

"I've told Mr. Qian and the others before to let them make the arrangements first. If they can't finish all the work, I'll take over and arrange the work." Zhang Heping said, his hand already resting on the car door. "The Heping Group has their own recruitment and training plans, so I don't need it for now."

"If nothing else, I'll go to the lab first!"

"It's okay!" Mr. Hua said with a smile, "Go and do your thing. I'm here!"

As soon as Zhang Heping left, the smile on Mr. Hua's face immediately disappeared, and he looked worried.

"This is trouble!" Elder Hua looked at Brigadier General Chu and said, "With so many departments and units blocking the intersection and demanding people, there's not enough space for so few students."

"Hehe!" Brigade Commander Chu seemed not to understand and said with a smile: "Advisor Zhang just promised me, I will go to the two vice presidents to ask for someone."

Seeing that Brigade Commander Chu Bei was about to leave, Elder Hua hurriedly grabbed the burly man and said bluntly, "I'll give you 30 students at most!"

"How can 30 students be enough?" Brigade Commander Chu knew that this was the last hurdle for Elder Hua, and he immediately showed weakness and complained, "The total number of our three regiments is less than 3!"

"Master Hua, look around. We have so few people and have to work in three shifts to protect such a large area. We are under a lot of pressure!"

"You just told me to ask Consultant Zhang directly for as much as I can get!"

"Only 30!" After being given the final say in the allocation of graduates, Professor Hua seemed like a completely different person. "Advisor Zhang didn't promise you a specific number of graduates just now. If you don't believe me, go ask Vice Dean Qian and the others. I'm afraid they'll give you even fewer."

"Mr. Hua, 30 students are really too few!" Brigade Commander Chu was so anxious that he scratched his shaved head with both hands, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind.

"How about this? After you assign tasks to those students, lend them to me for a few months." Brigade Commander Chu said, counting on his right fingers. "Start lending them this month, and then in June, July, and August, have them teach my soldiers how to use computers before September."

Elder Hua patted Brigadier General Chu's sturdy shoulders and said with a smile, "That's enough. There are only 30 students. You don't need to borrow graduates to teach your soldiers."

"I'm in charge. You are allowed to audit all classes at the academy during your free time. You can also enter the library and computer lab freely."

"Also, we can find some professors and students to give you lessons in the evenings or during holidays."

"As for the secret weapons of the underground base, those graduates don't know either. We can only ask the assistants in the laboratory to explain them to you."

Brigade Commander Chu naturally agreed to this arrangement.

As for how Mr. Hua will allocate the remaining hundreds of students, they don’t have to worry about it.

Zhang Heping spent three days finishing up the work at the space capsule remote control center and stored his experimental samples in the Dragon Egg Spacecraft No. 3.

Next, we just need to wait for the completion of other experimental projects before we can recover the spacecraft.

It is worth mentioning that there is still an experimental monkey in the space capsule. In a few days, it will have stayed in space for 100 days.

Once we bring this monkey back to the ground, we will be close to conducting manned space experiments, which is really exciting.

On the other side, Old Bush used these few days to persuade some financial groups and families to temporarily suppress his impeachment.

In addition, this guy also took the time to issue a decree to increase the security personnel and treatment of the outgoing general manager.

Old Bush originally wanted to delay it for a few more days, but after seeing Eagle King being interviewed in the ward on TV and criticizing the explosion, he asked someone to communicate with the mainland about the relevant time.

Zhang Heping paid no attention to the procrastinating Old Bu. After finishing his space experiment, he went to Dapeng Peninsula to inspect the space computers and servers made there using 10-nanometer silicon carbide chips.

Zhang Heping dared to launch the electromagnetic pulse bomb and provoke a new round of space race, so he naturally had a backup plan.

Otherwise, the country would have stopped him first.

As a third-generation semiconductor material, silicon carbide has significant advantages in resisting electromagnetic pulses; its material properties, combined with device design, can effectively enhance the electromagnetic compatibility protection capabilities of electronic systems. This is one of the reasons why the Peace Chip Factory was able to win large military orders.

The three brothers Zhang Bei, Zhang Long and Zhang Hu are planning to build a drone production factory in Shenzhen. However, since it will take some time to build the factory, the production line needs to be customized, and the staff needs to be recruited and trained, they are not in a hurry to use 28-nanometer chips.

Just because you’re not in a hurry to use it doesn’t mean you don’t need to order it.

After Zhang Bei and his team used the back door, paid the money and placed the order, they found out that the order was scheduled until April of next year, which was a huge delay.

However, this is already the excess production squeezed out by the chip factory working overtime. Who told them not to place the order earlier?

...

Although the free trade agreement was first proposed by the United States, it was the Americans from the United States who actually initiated the negotiations on the free trade agreement!

As the Eagle King got through the low fever caused by the medicine, large areas of his skin began to peel off, and his appearance changed significantly, returning to that of a man in his fifties.

If she follows the doctor's advice and continues to exercise after returning home, she can maintain this appearance for another 20 to 30 years.

Because of the negotiations initiated by the Eagle Country, Zhang Zhaodi, who had just returned to the capital not long ago, came to Hong Kong Island with the delegation as the director of the Hong Kong and Macao Department of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation to participate in the negotiations on relevant terms.

After this news spread, various capitals that were originally hesitant about whether to invest in the mainland gave up most of their concerns, brought funds to Hong Kong Island, first established an offshore company, and then rushed into the mainland's business world.

The reason why they registered the company in Hong Kong Island before going to the mainland to look for business opportunities is that Hong Kong Island companies only need to pay 5% offshore tax to the mainland for the money they earn in the mainland, and the Hong Kong government does not impose taxes on the companies' off-island income.

In fact, only 5% tax needs to be paid for this inflow and outflow. Such a low tax will naturally attract the favor of various capitals.

The only thing that makes them hesitate is the mainland’s system!

If they are given public ownership in the future, it will not be a question of whether the taxes are low or not, but a big question of whether the principal can be recovered!

Fortunately, the mainland has improved relevant foreign investment laws in recent years and has actively participated in many international affairs, allowing various capitals to see the mainland's changes.

Of course, the most critical factor is that Peace Group’s investment in the mainland is increasing.

With the Peace Group having achieved hundreds of billions of dollars in business in Japan, other capitalists who want to make money have to study in depth the logic behind the Peace Group's investment in the mainland in order to make money.

Now, the Eagle Americans have officially initiated free trade agreement negotiations with the mainland, and the Magnesium Country is also about to negotiate this agreement with the mainland.

Driven by many favorable factors, foreign capital that has entered the mainland for investigation will not be willing to leave.

The problem that is bothering them now is also the most troubling problem for economists in the mainland: foreign exchange!

The mainland is currently still implementing foreign exchange adjustment business, that is, under the supervision of management departments, foreign-invested enterprises and relevant units adjust the exchange rate between foreign exchange and RMB based on the guidance price of the management department and the exchange rate negotiated by themselves.

There is definitely a price difference between the "self-negotiated exchange rate" and the exchange rate guided by the management department, which has spawned a group of people with connections who operate in the gray area.

However, these people with connections also have the ability to limit their spending, so it is no problem for them to take tens of millions of magnesium yuan in a single transaction. As long as the frequency is controlled, the local banks can also handle it.
