Chapter 268 - 268: Hold On, We Can Win (Part 3)
“For instance, let’s talk about the cubs of distinctive exotic animals like white lions, snow leopards, and golden brown bears. I’m interested to see how impressive they can be.
“If I am satisfied, I will immediately open the authorization channel. This means that you will be treated equally in terms of technology, and you will also be able to purchase raw materials from us.
“However, if I am not satisfied, I’m sorry, although this may seem capricious, the powerful have the right to be so. What do you think?”
After hearing this, James’ expression did not change.
“You are right, this is a right that you should have. We will do our utmost to satisfy you and demonstrate our sincerity.”
“Good, then take care, I won’t see you out.”
After James left, Lin Chao was still frowning.
“Brother Lin, what are you thinking about?”
“I’m just curious why you would make such a request. For them, this kind of thing is too simple.”
Lin Chao really couldn’t figure out Tang Rui’s thought process.
This time, it was clear that the higher-ups were letting Tang Rui take advantage of the situation to gain benefits.
The carbon-based semiconductor industry couldn’t possibly remain closed to the outside world.
Having it completely monopolized by the family wasn’t a good thing either, not to mention that America had made a big concession this time.
They would also be able to access the global market and open up the crude oil market at the same time.
It could be said to be very profitable.
As a major contributor, the higher-ups naturally wouldn’t forget Tang Rui.
So, this time, it was obviously meant for Tang Rui to take advantage and reap the benefits. But then Tang Rui made such a request.
Wasn’t this a waste of an opportunity?
“What’s there to think about? This request is what I want right now. Anything else, whether it’s money or power, is not what I want.”
“Alright, I understand, but don’t overthink it.” Lin Chao said helplessly, looking at Tang Rui’s playful expression.
“I’m really not overthinking.” Tang Rui wasn’t one to overthink.
He was living a very happy life, with nothing much to ponder over.
In fact, even if he had other demands now, the authorities would not refuse.
But it was meaningless.
His future was destined to be among the stars. He was just too lazy to move now, and besides, Earth was quite fun.
When the time came when he felt life was meaningless, and the calling for excitement and passion came knocking on his chest, that was when he would leave Earth.
Otherwise, why go out looking for excitement? Was Earth too small to contain him, that he had to venture into the universe?
Back in the lab, Tang Rui received news from the military’s special department. On the drilling platform on the Korean side, many people from the American side had appeared.
Goodness.
They had been tricked by their son.
All of them had fallen into the trap of the alien spaceship.
After receiving the news, Tang Rui asked Red Lotus to display the situation there.
However, the drill had only reached less than 500 meters, still far from the 1724 meters underground.
Needless to say, the deeper the drill had to go, the harder it became.
If he wanted to watch the drama unfold, he would probably have to wait a while.
“Master, the Space Command Center has sent a video call request. Will you accept it?”
Just after finishing chatting with the special department, the space command center contacted him.
“Connect it.”
Whoosh!
On the holographic projection in front of Tang Rui, the projection of the person in charge of the space command center appeared. It was not a two-dimensional image, but a three-dimensional projection.
Clearly, the other party was on a space shuttle, using a holographic projection device to contact him.
“President Tang, can you let us have the lunar rover?”
After the video call was connected, the other party spoke, leaving him a bit confused.
What lunar rover?
Where did this lunar rover come from?
“Wait a minute… Is there a mistake? I don’t have a lunar rover.” Tang Rui asked, confused.
“It’s not yours, it’s America’s lunar rover.”
“What does America’s lunar rover have to do with me?”
“Their lunar rover has been locked up by your people. They won’t let us move it.”
Tang Rui understood after listening.
This matter involved no one else; it was definitely Gao Yang’s doing.
“Got it, let me talk to Gao Yang. I’ll speak with him.” Tang Rui didn’t care about the lunar rover at all.
If the Space Command Center wanted it, they could just have it.
Gao Yang’s image appeared in front of him.
“President Tang.”
“What’s the issue with the lunar rover?”
“When I returned to the moon, I found America’s lunar rover had flipped over, and its internal system was malfunctioning.
After that, I had Red Lotus help fix the system malfunction and put it away, planning to return it to them the next time America goes to the moon.”
Gao Yang spoke with a straight face.
“Well, I see. You just did a simple repair. It’s hard to say whether it’s completely fixed or not.
Let the people from the Space Command Center drive it out and test it. If there’s a problem, continue to fix it. We can’t leave a broken thing to America. That wouldn’t be good. If we’re fixing it, we need to fix it properly.”
Tang Rui also answered seriously..
