Chapter 214 Star Cluster Project
Chapter 214 Star Cluster Project
"Xixi, how about your brother's career in Australia? He is an expert at repairing computers."
"Ahem, this is a waste of talent."
Chen Xi almost spit out his food when he heard what his grandmother said. How could such a talented person go to Australia to repair computers? How could his grandmother come up with this idea? You should know that Chen Ran's technology in network protection is well-known in the industry.
"I'm not going! My uncle asked me to go to the United States before, but I refused to go." Chen Ran waved his hands. He didn't want to go abroad at all.
"You just want to have a relationship in the country!" Chen's mother immediately exposed the other party's inner thoughts.
"Anyway, I just don't want to go abroad. It's good here." When Chen Ran thought about separating from his girlfriend if he went abroad, he quickly gave up the idea.
Obviously, his girlfriend's family didn't have the conditions to go abroad, and his parents didn't agree to pay for both of them to go abroad at the same time. So Chen Ran chose to stay in China. You should know that Chen Ran's uncle was doing well in the United States. He had cooperation with some domestic pharmaceutical companies and was a senior intellectual who studied in the United States in the early days.
"How is Chenxu? The last time we talked on the phone, his parents talked a lot about him." Grandma continued to ask.
"Let's leave it that way." Thinking that Chen Xu was already completely obsessed with Cherry, Chen Xi shook his head.
"It seems that it is still difficult to survive abroad. Just come back after you graduate. You are smart and Chenran has skills. The two of you will definitely be a good team." Grandma has already started planning their future.
"Yeah." Chen Xi could only nod in agreement.
It’s still early when you graduate!
"This place hasn't been renovated yet, so the environment is still good." After dinner, Chen Xi strolled to a quiet pond.
The pond was designed with great ingenuity, with rugged rockery and graceful lotus flowers. Unfortunately, it was winter now and the scene was bleak.
The cold wind swept across the water, causing ripples, but it could not hide its desolation.
The fish in the water seemed to feel the cold and hid away, disappearing without a trace.
Chen Xi stood by the pond, gazing at the bleak scene in winter, feeling a little melancholy in his heart.
Just now when he was eating, he wanted to ask his family what they thought of women from the Sakura Country, but after thinking it over, he kept his mouth shut.
"Hey, isn't this Chen Xi? I haven't seen you for a long time. What university are you attending now?" A dark-skinned young man with ordinary looks walked over, followed by a tall young man with a square face.
Chen Xi recognized him. This was Anhua, also a kid from the compound. When he was a kid, he was beaten by Chen Xi and made him cry. This guy used to be very arrogant. He had no impression of the other guy.
He didn't communicate much with the children in the compound, and after he was sent to boarding school, he basically never saw these people again.
"What? You're not talking? Did you not do well in the exam? You used to beat me because your family is rich. But I got a top university. What's the use of that? You need academic qualifications to survive in the society in the future." Anhua said proudly. His family was poor and his father worked as a car mechanic in the compound.
Now that he is the only college student in the family, he is naturally extremely arrogant.
He still feels resentful about being beaten by Chen Xi when he was a child. In his eyes, those rich people are hateful capitalists.
He felt that knowledge could change one's destiny. Now that he had been admitted to a key university, he would definitely have a bright future after graduation. Chen Xi, a playboy who relied on his family's wealth, could not compare with him at all.
"Oh, I didn't get into a top university. I'm studying abroad!" Chen Xi sat by the railing of the pond, crossed his legs and smoked.
"…Study abroad? Aren't domestic universities good? You're worshipping foreign things. Is the moon rounder abroad?" Anhua felt jealous when he heard that Chen Xi was studying abroad, but he still used his patriotic feelings to ridicule Chen Xi.
"I really don't understand which university is so blind to accept an idiot like you." Chen Xi laughed. An Hua in front of him was still the same as when he was a child. He was born with an inferiority complex and lost his way after achieving a little success.
"Humph, you're still so stubborn. I might as well tell you that I'm going to be rich soon! A technology company has already taken a fancy to me, and when I get in, I'll be working on a big project. I'll report to the company tomorrow."
"Oh?"
Chen Xi raised his head and looked at this funny guy in confusion. He couldn't understand how the people in that company could be so stupid as to have set their eyes on Anhua.
Anhua is a guy who is not smart and does not understand the ways of the world. It was beyond his expectation that he could get into university. "This technology company cooperates with the Institute of Chemical Science and the Ministry of Aviation to manufacture and launch satellites. Can you imagine that tens of thousands of satellites will be overhead?" Anhua looked proud.
"You tell me such a confidential matter like this?" Chen Xi wanted to laugh after hearing this. He didn't remember China doing such a thing.
"You country bumpkin, do you know what the Star Cluster Project is? I'm contributing to the country, unlike you guys who will go abroad and never come back. We need to build our country, and technology is indispensable. Do you know how to make a country strong through technology?"
"Do I have to pay money after joining the company?"
"You...how did you know? This is an investment. Everyone has to contribute to science and technology. Of course, there will be returns in the future. We, the early investors, have contributed the most and will naturally receive generous returns! After all, a strong country and making money are not in conflict." Anhua was surprised at first, but then he calmed down. There are many people in their company and it is not surprising that people outside know about this.
He has already asked his family for money and invested all the money his father saved for his wife.
He was in a good mood when he thought about making a lot of money in the future.
"Then you should invest more. This kind of opportunity is rare. If you have the connections, you can help me get rich." Chen Xi smiled and tried to please Anhua.
"The quota is full. You'd better invest abroad. China's future does not need people like you." Anhua sneered and decisively rejected Chen Xi's request.
“By the way, this guy is from our compound as well. He’s in the artillery yard now.” Anhua pointed to the young man standing nearby.
"Hello. My name is Lin Dong, which means "pillar of the country." The square-faced young man stood straight, just like the sentry at the door.
He greeted Chen Xi and introduced himself in a strange way.
"Hello, Chen Xi."
The two shook hands.
"We played together when we were kids, and you were very good at fighting," Lin Dong praised.
"No, I'm not as skilled as you soldiers." Chen Xi said politely. He could tell that the young man in front of him was not from the same group as Anhua, and probably just happened to meet him when he came back.
"Look, we are all the future elites of the country. I advise you not to stay abroad and come back to find a job in a factory to make screws. This way you can also contribute to the motherland." Anhua felt that China was developing very fast now and that the foreign systems were outdated. There were still foreigners coming to China to study, which definitely showed that foreign schools were no longer good.
Although the university he attended was not a good one, in his eyes, it was definitely better than foreign universities, and what he learned was in line with China's development.
In his opinion, people like Chen Xi who spend a lot of money to study foreign goods abroad are foolish.
"Where is your company? What's its name?" Chen Xi looked at Anhua curiously. In Anhua's eyes, Chen Xi's actions were like a commercial spy who was trying to gather intelligence.
"What do you want to do? I won't tell you. Just go watch TV yourself when the time comes! My name will spread all over the country soon, and people like you are only worthy of looking up to me on TV." Anhua snorted coldly and walked towards the small house next to the garage with his head held high. That was his home.
In order to facilitate car repairs, the army specially arranged a place for his father to stay. Living there, Anhua felt out of place with the other children in the army compound, which always left a thorn in his heart.
He had wanted to make a career since he was young, and to trample all those so-called children of high-ranking officials under his feet. Why should Anwar be inferior to others? Now that there is such a good opportunity, he will naturally give his all.
When their company's Star Cluster Project is completed, as one of the early investors, he will definitely appear on TV and in magazines, and become famous both at home and abroad.
"I'm going home too, see you next time! This is my phone number, contact me when you have time. You helped me fight when we were kids, maybe you don't remember." Lin Dong touched his head naively and placed the number displayed on his phone in front of Chen Xi.
"Ah? Uh... don't worry about it." Chen Xi had completely forgotten about this. After the two exchanged numbers, he walked towards home.
This idiot, probably joined some pyramid scheme again.
Chen Xi sneered in his heart, thinking that Anhua, that brainless guy, was probably going to be killed by someone.
What the hell is this Star Cluster Project? He thinks he is Ma!
