Chapter 138 The showdown is over: it belongs to me, Su!
"Ah~~"
Su Chen yawned from time to time while sitting at the dining table, and a hint of bloodshot could be vaguely seen in his eyes.
"Sir, did you stay up late last night?" Jiang Hui asked softly beside him.
"Yeah, ah~, I looked up some information last night, and before I knew it, it was already two or three in the morning. I'm going to take a nap. Call me when Wu Jing arrives!"
Last night, after Su Chen saw the water purification technology that came out of the system blind box, he originally thought that he would just take a quick look at it and then go to sleep. Who would have thought that he would be addicted to it as soon as he saw the catalog.
The content of this water purification technology is very rich. Anything related to water can be purified, even nuclear waste water.
Take sewage purification technology as an example. While purifying sewage, various components in the water can be extracted through corresponding technologies. For example, in addition to the metal components such as gold and copper that everyone knows, there are also precious components such as seaweed that can promote cell division and delay aging.
In addition, a new technology is also used in sewage purification technology - electron beam irradiation technology, which already belongs to the category of nuclear industry.
This technology is not only efficient, convenient and low-cost, but also has no side effects on the surrounding area. Even industrial wastewater can be purified into normal drinking water.
In addition to purifying sewage, there is also a more efficient seawater-to-drinking water technology, which can really give me a piece of sea and give you countless pure water.
As long as you have some knowledge in this area, you can quickly establish a water resource treatment company.
Last night, Su Chen only read less than one-third of the entire water resource purification technology. He did not plan to read the rest, mainly because he could not understand it. Even last night, he was searching for related knowledge points while reading.
"Yes, sir!" Jiang responded.
Su Chen ate a little and went back to his room. His double eyelids were twitching and he yawned seven or eight times in a row. He really couldn't help it.
Less than ten minutes after going upstairs, Wu Jing rang the doorbell of the courtyard.
"Um~Sir, I was busy a little late last night. I just finished breakfast and went back to my room to rest. I didn't expect you to arrive so early!" Jiang Hui explained calmly.
Wu Jing nodded silently after hearing this.
"I don't know when the gentleman will wake up, why don't you come back in the afternoon, Mr. Wu!"
"It's okay. I don't have anything to do today anyway. I'll just wait for Mr. Su!" Wu Jing didn't have anything to do, so he just stayed in the courtyard and didn't leave.
Seeing this, Jiang Hui did not continue talking. He took Wu Jing to the reception and lounge area and brewed him a pot of pre-rain Longjing tea.
Smelling the overflowing tea fragrance, Wu Jing said with some apology: "Butler Jiang, I am sorry to trouble you!"
Jiang Hui was stunned for a moment when he heard this. He didn't expect him to be so polite. A smile flashed across his face, "Hahaha~ Mr. Wu, you're so polite~"
I don't know if everyone checked the almanac before going out today. Jiang Hui was just about to sit down and chat with Wu Jing when the doorbell rang again.
When he opened the door and saw Xiao Chen, Jiang Yang and others outside, he felt a little overwhelmed.
"Mr. Xiao~Mr. Jiang" Jiang Hui greeted respectfully.
"Where are Lao Jiang and Su Chen?" Jiang Yang approached Jiang Hui and asked casually.
Jiang Hui could only repeat what he said before, "Mr. was busy until the early hours of last night. After breakfast, he went back to his room to catch up on some sleep!"
"Stay up late? Didn't he say he was very tired and going to bed early when he was called yesterday? Why is he staying up late again?"
Jiang Yang was about to continue asking when he was interrupted by Xiao Chen, "Su Chen must have his own things to do, why are you asking so many questions?"
After saying that, he turned to look at Jiang Hui and said, "It's okay, don't disturb Su Chen, let him continue to sleep, we can drink tea and chat while waiting for him."
"Then please come in, Mr. Xiao!" Jiang Hui was also helpless and could only take Xiao Chen and others to the rest area.
When Xiao Chen and the others arrived at the reception area, they saw Wu Jing drinking tea leisurely. There was a hint of surprise in her eyes. She didn't expect that there were other people coming to see Su Chen.
"Huh? Wu Jing, why are you here? Do you know Su Chen?" Xiao Chen did not expect to meet him here.
Wu Jing stood up from the chair in a flash, with his body straight, legs together, and his right hand naturally raised to his brow, "Hello, Chief Instructor!"
Seeing Wu Jing's expression, Xiao Chen's mouth curled up slightly, and he smiled and waved his hand, saying, "No need to salute me, we haven't seen each other for many years!"
"It's been almost five years!" Although Wu Jing put his hands down, his back was still straight.
The two met a few years ago when Xiao Chen was assigned to Jinling to train special forces. Coincidentally, Wu Jing was among that group of special forces.
Wu Jing also left a great impression on him at the time. An actor could put aside his idol image and live and eat with those special forces members, and even trained for a year and a half to shape a character. This alone is admirable.
Xiao Chen still remembers that the troops in Jinling at that time even put forward the slogan of learning from Comrade Wu Jing.
"Please sit down, we are all acquaintances. Old Jiang, bring a few more teacups over!" Xiao Chen invited Jiang Yang, Yin Zheng and others to sit down.
Jiang Hui quickly brought over three teacups, two fruit plates and some snacks. After pouring tea for everyone, he left the lounge area and thoughtfully closed the door.
Xiao Chen took a sip of the tea and felt his body warm up a lot. He then looked at Wu Jing curiously and asked, "How did you and Su Chen know each other?"
Xiao Chen did not ask this question without reason. According to his understanding, there were less than ten people who could come to Su Chen's courtyard. Apart from the people in Xiao Chen's circle, there was only Sicong's small circle.
The fact that Wu Jing can come here means that Su Chen must be very familiar with him.
"When I was having dinner with Sicong before, Mr. Su came with us. We had a very pleasant chat. So, under Mr. Su's leadership, we set up a film investment company!"
"Film investment company? Could it be that Su Chen saw that your Wolf Warrior 1 was pretty good and is planning to invest in Wolf Warrior 2?" Xiao Chen said jokingly.
"Uh~" Wu Jing was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, Mr. Su invested 50 million. I came here today to talk to Mr. Su about the movie."
Originally Xiao Chen was just speaking casually, but he didn't expect that he would actually come right.
"Talk to him about movies? I guess he doesn't know much about this. Are you short of money? I can help you with that." Xiao Chen suddenly had an idea to invest in Wu Jing's movie.
"Chief Instructor, are you telling the truth?" Wu Jing said excitedly.
You know, in his script, in addition to mercenaries, warships are also needed. It would be a bit troublesome for him to do it alone. Even if he has some relationship with the Jinling Military Region, it would still be difficult.
But now Xiao Chen wants to participate in the investment of this movie. With his joining, these problems will no longer be a problem.
Xiao Chen calmly waved his hand, signaling him not to get so excited, "Don't call me Chief Instructor, call me Brother Chen!"
"I believe in Su Chen's vision. Since he is very optimistic about your Wolf Warrior 2, it must be good. I am just following him to make a living!"
Wu Jing smiled and nodded when he heard this. Su Chen had indeed helped him a lot.
Thinking of what happened in Africa, he said with some emotion: "Hey, if I hadn't known Mr. Su, I wouldn't be able to come back from Africa this time!"
As soon as Wu Jing said this, he came to his senses and realized that he had said the wrong thing.
Sure enough, Xiao Chen's eyes moved slightly, and he pretended to be curious and asked: "Can't come back? What happened to you in Africa? Can Su Chen still help you in Africa?"
Wu Jing was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say. After all, she had promised Su Chen not to tell anyone. Plus, the information was too explosive and it took her a long time to digest it.
But this was a question Xiao Chen asked him, and if he didn't answer, the situation would be in a bad way.
Xiao Chen also saw through Wu Jing's difficulty in expressing his thoughts, and knew that there must be something big going on, otherwise Wu Jing would not be so hesitant.
Then he smiled and said, "Did Su Chen tell you not to tell anyone? Now that he has spoken, you should just keep it to yourself."
Wu Jing heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. Just as he was about to speak, he heard a voice coming from behind everyone.
"What are you talking about? You are laughing so happily!"
Everyone turned their heads and saw Su Chen leaning against the door.
"Huh? Didn't Lao Jiang say you were sleeping? Why are you up?"
Su Chen rolled his eyes at everyone and said unhappily, "Please, wait for me here, so I can sleep peacefully."
Su Chen was sleeping soundly when he was woken up by a phone call. The key point is that the person who called was his good subordinate - Pei Rang!
There was indeed something he needed to talk to him about. The New Year was approaching, so Pei Rang called to tell him about the annual meeting. It would be best if he could go back to Shanghai. It was impossible for the boss not to attend the company's year-end meeting.
I also learned from Pei Rang that the annual meeting was scheduled for the 15th, so we could have an early holiday after the annual meeting.
In addition, Pei Rang also had to report to him the group's annual report summary this year and the group's strategic plan for next year. With all these things, how could Su Chen have the mood to sleep?
After much persuasion, Su Chen promised to return to the Magic City on the 10th, and Pei Rang hung up the phone.
Su Chen, who was unable to sleep, had just come down from upstairs when he heard Lao Jiang report that the reception room was almost full, which led to the previous scene.
"Come and sit down, we were just talking about you!" Xiao Chen patted the chair next to him and said.
Su Chen walked over to Xiao Chen and sat down, then he asked curiously: "About me? What are you talking about!"
Xiao Chen glanced at the somewhat nervous Wu Jing and said with a smile: "Haha~ Wu Jing just let it slip that he got into trouble in Africa and it was you who helped him. Tell me what happened!"
Su Chen frowned slightly when he heard that, and glanced at Wu Jing who had become even more restrained. Especially when his eyes met Wu Jing's, he could tell from the regret in the eyes that Wu Jing's mistake was unintentional.
"What else could it be? You know the situation in Africa."
Then he looked at Wu Jing and said, "Wu Jing took a photography team to South Africa for a field survey in order to perfectly present all the scenes in the script. But they met an idiot chief who captured all of them and asked Wu Jing to train their team!" Su Chen felt his mouth was a little dry when he said this. He poured himself a cup of tea and took a few snacks to eat.
This made Jiang Yang very anxious. He just reached the climax but it got stuck. Who could bear this?
"What happened next? How did you rescue Wu Jing and the others?"
Because of Xiao Chen, Jiang Yang knew a little about the situation in Africa.
He knew that those tribes were armed, and the natives were unreasonable. It would be impossible to rescue people from them safely without any strength.
At least we should scare the "warriors" of the tribe.
"Why are you asking me? The person involved is here, just ask directly!" Su Chen was indeed a little hungry after having eaten a little in the morning. Besides, he didn't know how Raymond was rescued.
After rescuing Wu Jing and his group, when reporting to him, Raymond simply told him the whole story, but he didn't know how it was done specifically.
After hearing Su Chen's words, everyone looked at Wu Jing, even Xiao Chen was no exception, the curiosity in his eyes was almost showing on his face.
Wu Jing also heard the hidden meaning of Su Chen's words, so he could speak boldly. He coughed lightly to moisten his throat, "In fact, it was not that thrilling. The people who came to rescue us brought a convoy, and the tribal chief directly handed us over."
"A convoy? How is that possible? Those tribes in South Africa have dozens or even hundreds of armed men. How could they be frightened by a convoy?" Xiao Chen directly denied it.
"Ahem~ This convoy is a bit large!" Wu Jing said somewhat embarrassedly.
Xiao Chen's brows furrowed even more. "Large? How large can it be? Could it be that there are 20 or 30 chariots?"
“Hundreds of them!”
The room instantly became quiet, except for the sound of Su Chen eating snacks and drinking tea. Everyone looked at Wu Jing, and even Xiao Chen was surprised by the number.
What does it mean to have hundreds of tanks? They can basically run all over South Africa. Who else except the government can compete with them? No wonder the chief of the tribe handed over Wu Jing and his men directly after seeing such a scene.
"It's impossible. Who in South Africa has the strength to produce hundreds of tanks, except for the IPS security company that is spread all over Africa?"
Xiao Chen suddenly turned his head to look at Su Chen who was eating snacks, and then looked at Wu Jing's expression. He was already sure in his heart that the convoy that rescued Wu Jing came from the South African branch of IPS!
But what is the relationship between Su Chen and IPS Security Company? If it is just a rescue commission, there is nothing wrong with this matter. Just think about Wu Jing's expression before, and you can see that this company must have a great relationship with Su Chen.
Only in this way would Wu Jing keep his mouth shut and be unwilling to talk about what he encountered in Africa. Later, after getting Su Chen's tacit consent, he boldly spoke out.
He smacked his lips, picked up the tea in front of him and drank several sips, then looked at Su Chen and asked, "Su Chen, you are not a shareholder of IPS, are you?"
After these words were spoken, Jiang Yang and Yin Zheng looked at Su Chen. Only Wu Jing was the calmest, because he knew the truth.
"Well~ the IPS is mine!" Now that things have come to this, Su Chen has nothing to hide.
Let’s be frank, IPS Security Company belongs to him, Su!
"Hiss~" Xiao Chen took a breath of cold air. Apart from Su Chen, he was probably the only one present who knew the scale of IPS Security Company best.
Ranked among the top ten security companies in the world, IPS can be said to be the most mysterious one. They can be seen in many places, whether in Africa, Europe or the Middle East.
It is also the only one among the top ten security companies that has not disclosed its financial statements to the outside world. It is unknown how many employees it has or what its annual revenue is. Its entry into the top ten depends on its strength.
The security of most mines in Africa is handled by IPS. Xiao Chen had come into contact with them several times when he was on missions before and knew that their professional quality was very high.
What he didn't expect was that the big boss behind IPS Security Company would be Su Chen.
For a moment, the whole room became quiet, and everyone was looking at Su Chen who was concentrating on eating snacks.
"Why are you all looking at me? Have you ever seen a handsome guy hungry?"
After Su Chen's joke, the serious atmosphere dissipated a lot.
"By the way, Wu Jing, you said before that you had something to talk to me about. What is it?" Su Chen then remembered the business.
"It's like this, Mr. Su. I think Mr. Raymond is very suitable to play the villain leader. I just want to ask you to do some ideological work on him!" As Wu Jing said this, he took out a script of the villain leader from his pocket and handed it to Su Chen with both hands.
"Let Raymond make a movie?" Although Su Chen was very surprised, he still took the script handed over by Wu Jing.
The script is not very thick, only about six or seven pages.
Su Chen looked through it carefully and found that, just as Wu Jing said, Raymond was very suitable for the villain in the script. As the leader of mercenaries, Raymond completely fits this temperament.
In addition, Su Chen also saw through Wu Jing's little thoughts. The villain in the script was the leader of a large mercenary group, with all kinds of chariots and tanks. Wu Jing not only wanted Raymond to participate, but also wanted him to bring weapons and equipment.
Su Chen heard this plan in the imperial capital.
This was not a big deal, so Su Chen agreed after thinking for a moment.
"Okay, I'll tell Raymond about this. You should have left Raymond's phone number, so we can discuss the details later!"
"Thank you, Mr. Su!" Wu Jing stood up and bowed to Su Chen.
With Su Chen's guarantee, there were basically no difficulties in filming the movie, and even the final warship got Xiao Chen's support.
Thinking of this, Wu Jing remembered Xiao Chen’s previous investment. She glanced at Xiao Chen and told Su Chen directly.
"Well~ Brother Chen also wants to participate, no problem, we make money together and lose money together!" Su Chen didn't care about investment at all. Even if Wu Jing's movie was a success, he wouldn't get much money.
Judging from the performance of Wolf Warrior 1, it would be at most a few hundred million.
This little money is just a drop in the bucket for Su Chen!
As for how much Xiao Chen invested, Su Chen was not very concerned. After all, investment does not necessarily mean only investing money. Other hard aspects can also be regarded as investment.
"By the way, why are you three here? Didn't you go out to have fun last night?" Su Chen asked Xiao Chen and the other two.
Logically speaking, Xiao Chen, Jiang Yang and Yin Zheng should have had a lot of fun last night. They should still be sleeping in a hotel at this point, instead of coming to his place so early. This was totally beyond his expectations.
"I just talked about your father's affairs during dinner last night, so I came here today to ask how things were going and if you needed any help!"
"The matter has been dealt with. I originally wanted to start with their company and give the three of them a good "reward", but who knew that the company was acquired by Ye Feng's Ye Group. I had to give up the previous idea and let Ye Feng send the three people on a business trip to Africa."
Su Chen's words were very calm, without a single wave of emotion, but to other people's ears they sounded like a storm.
Took it to Africa?
Considering the information they just learned and the strength of IPS Security Company in Africa, it would be a piece of cake to deal with those three people.
Xiao Chen was silent for a long time before he slowly said: "Su Chen, if possible, just teach these three a profound lesson and spare their lives!"
Su Chen was also stunned for a moment, then said: "Brother Chen, what's the matter with life or death? I am a good citizen who abides by the law. How could I do something illegal?"
Jiang Yang and the others rolled their eyes. The people have been taken to Africa. What laws are you still abiding by?
Before they could come to their senses, they heard Su Chen's slightly cold voice saying, "Sometimes living is more painful than dying!"
"I believe those black men in Africa will take good care of the three of them!"
Hearing this, Xiao Chen and the others' mouths twitched. The black man? ? He was going to kill them. What was the difference between living like this and being dead?
"Okay, let's stop talking about these disappointing things and talk about happy things. Jiang Yang, you did a great job this time!" The coldness on Su Chen's face disappeared, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Hehe~ Small things, all small things!" The corners of Jiang Yang's mouth at this time were harder to suppress than that of AK.
"By the way, when Shulaya left, he was still thinking about you and said he would come to play with you again in a while!"
Su Chen glared at him unhappily. This matter must have been Jiang Yang's doing, otherwise how could Shulaya have such an idea? He silently made a note of Jiang Yang in the little notebook in his heart.
"It's a good thing that you two are here today, so I'll tell you something serious." Su Chen said to Xiao Chen and Jiang Yang.
Yin Zheng and Wu Jing on the side were also very sensible. They didn't let Su Chen say anything and made an excuse that they drank too much water and wanted to go to the toilet.
After the two of them left the room, Xiao Chen looked at Su Chen in confusion and asked, "Why are you so mysterious?"
"Brother Chen, you promised me to support me before, but you forgot. I plan to take action after the new year. I want you to find a place to build a factory for me now!"
"There is definitely no problem with what I promised you, but what are you going to do? I can find a place for you when the time comes!" Xiao Chen naturally knew that he had made a lot of promises in order to get Su Chen to drag the Arno family into the water.
"I plan to develop our own chip!" Su Chen said solemnly.
"Chip?" Xiao Chen and Jiang Yang looked at each other, with a hint of doubt in their eyes. Why would they want to study this money-burning thing for no reason?
Several large domestic companies have invested tens of billions of dollars in chip research, but in the end, not even a splash has been made.
How can you, a latecomer, develop a chip?
Seeing Su Chen's resolute eyes, Xiao Chen was silent for a moment and then said: "No problem, I will select a few suitable places for you to choose before the New Year, and I will also strive for chip-related support for you."
Hearing Xiao Chen's assurance, a smile appeared on Su Chen's face.
"Hehe~Brother Chen, just wait and see!"
