Chapter 534: Chapter 507: Election Situation (Third Update, Requesting Monthly Pass)
Lin Rui ended the communication with Li Xianglong and then heard a knock at the door.
The office door was a high-tech product with one-way shielding against Spiritual Sense. Lin Rui could clearly sense the situation outside the door, but those outside would encounter strong interference if they tried to perceive what was happening inside the office.
The degree of interference depended on the individual’s Cultivation.
In a world where Martial Arts prevailed, privacy was indeed an issue.
Lin Rui had already sensed that the person outside was Lu Hanyuan and slightly smiled: “Old Lu, co in. The door isn’t locked.”
Lu Hanyuan then pushed the door open and entered, dressed in a formal suit, looking sharp and immaculate, his hair slick and neat, with a serious expression: “Good morning, President Lin. I’m here to report for duty.”
...
“Report? What duty? Hasn’t my estate always been under your managent, Old Lu? Hmm~”
Lin Rui first chuckled in dismay, then his expression shifted, examining Lu Hanyuan: “Old Lu, are you preparing to formally take over the trade and shipbuilding companies? But your body hasn’t fully recovered yet, has it? There’s no need to rush.”
“President Lin, I am no longer seriously affected; these minor internal injuries will not impact my work.” Lu Hanyuan pondered how could he not be in a hurry? Just thinking about the chaotic managent, poor production and logistics efficiency, and the shocking waste at each step of the two companies, he felt an urgent frustration.
That was like throwing President Lin’s money into the water! If he took over these two companies right now, he could save at least 1.5 billion federal coins for President Lin every month—that could allow President Lin to maintain two more 6S squads.
Moreover, by speeding up and enhancing efficiency at various stages, the trade company could acquire more ships and achieve higher trade efficiency.
His new employer was a Demigod with limitless prospects, yet their enemies were also extrely powerful.
Lu Hanyuan felt that ti was of the essence, and it was crucial to utilize every ounce of strength to grow stronger urgently.
“Alright!”
In reality, Lin Rui was eager for Lu Hanyuan to start working since he severely lacked high-end managent talent. Directly recruiting professional managers may not et his expectations, and it would be difficult to establish trust in a short ti.
“Old Lu, your appointnt was issued ten days ago as the executive director and CEO of Forest Interstellar Trade Company and Forest Shipbuilding. I’ll personally take you to assu your duties at these companies later, but before that, you’ll accompany to a place. Coincidentally, that thing I talked to you about before has yielded results. Let’s go have a look together.”
Lu Hanyuan was montarily stunned, sowhat confused as to which matter President Lin was referring to.
He then had a slight realization, pondering whether President Lin was talking about that special Armant made with revolutionary technology, which could raise his Bloodline Power to the level of a Super Emperor of Eight Realms, or even Emperor Rank?
Was President Lin serious? Did they really possess such technology? Were they not just fooling him?
At this mont, Lin Rui was also sending ssages in the work group chat.
Gu Ying Tiandao (Lin Rui): Attention everyone, stop what you’re doing right now. Gather at Rui Fang Biological Prosthetics Studio, I have sothing good to show you. They’ve developed a new technology over there that’s very important for you, and I think it’s best for you to see it with your own eyes.
Gu Ying Tiandao (Lin Rui): To reiterate, this new technology is very important for you!
Quirky Youngster (Wang Sen): Received, Bro Rui.
Invincible Bull (Fei Yunlai): BOSS, on my way!
Powerful Horse King (Wang Tianwu): OK!
Gong Hengdao: Understood!
White Sumr (Xue Lingxue): Understood! I’ll co after I finish with these few docunts in my hands.
Lin Rui then led Lu Hanyuan out of the office building and boarded his ‘Holy Shield’ luxury service car, which had enhanced Defense.
By the way, the office building they were currently in was owned by Lin Rui himself.
Lin Rui had received so many properties from the Jin Family, including 1.58 million square ters of office buildings alone. As the saying goes, don’t let the water flow into others’ fields; using his own property saved trouble and money.
The two then departed towards the Rui Fang Biological Prosthetics Research Institute under the escort of 20 explosive-proof Armored Cars, four 6S-class combat teams, four Type-7 Red Spider, and twelve Type-6 Red Spider Combat Robots.
The entire motorcade majestically took to the highway, and at this mont, he received another video call.
As Lin Rui answered the call, Fang Ranran’s video image was projected in front of him, her expression serious yet her pretty face slightly flushed: “President Lin, have you departed yet?”
“We’ve already set off. It should take about 12 minutes to reach the research institute. What about you and Mr. Linghu?”
Lin Rui was puzzled; he clearly managed to find ti for a date with Fang Ranran yesterday and spent the whole day with her.
When they parted ways yesterday, Fang Ranran was obviously very happy, repeatedly calling him ‘Rui Rui’, so why had she beco so serious today?
He glanced at the background behind Fang Ranran and then he understood.
There was Linghu Mingde, the big third wheel, watching from behind.
He smiled and waved at Linghu Mingde: “Father-in-law looks very spirited today, how have you been feeling recently? Are you currently on the 7th Ring City Avenue? I see the sign. You should be close then.”
Fang Ranran’s face instantly turned as red as a ripe apple, thinking to herself, what is this guy shouting about? It wasn’t his place to call ‘Father-in-law’; how could he have such thick skin?
Fang Ranran did not realize she was too busy feeling annoyed and shy to correct him.
Linghu Mingde’s old face, however, turned into a blooming smile as he also waved at Lin Rui: “Thank you for your concern, Mr. Lin. Thanks to your blessings, I feel better with each passing day. Thinking about the two prosthetics that your Biological Prosthetics Research Institute has created, I’m quite overwheld with excitent, hardly able to contain myself.”
Then, Linghu Mingde’s expression turned solemn: “Right, Mr. Lin, are the data for these two prosthetics from your institute really reliable?”
Although Fang Ranran, as the deputy chairman of the Biological Research Institute, could access the experintal data, and the developnt of the prosthetics was overseen by the renowned scholars Si Malin and Xie Qing, Linghu Mingde currently trusted only Lin Rui.
Because the data was too exaggerated! Far beyond the initial estimates by Lin Rui and Si Malin, which made him sowhat skeptical.
Lin Rui kept looking at Fang Ranran, finding her embarrassed state quite adorable. So, Fang Ranran could blush after all?
He rembered how composed she was when she had been appreciating his naked body.
While looking at her with interest, he answered: “Very reliable. I personally witnessed the birth of these two prosthetics. However, seeing is believing, and I invited father-in-law over this ti to witness the simulation of the biological prosthetics in action.”
Now, Linghu Mingde was the biggest financier of the Rui Fang Biological Prosthetics Research Institute, contributing nearly 30% of their research funds without claiming any future patents. Thus, Lin Rui shared everything he knew in great detail and treated him extrely well: “But father-in-law, don’t overestimate this new technology too much. These two prosthetics were made by top prosthetic makers; with other makers, it would be hard to achieve the sa effect.”
Linghu Mingde thought to himself that indeed, Lin Rui did have top prosthetic makers under his control.
Otherwise, the data for those prosthetics couldn’t be so unbelievable, surpassing perfection in every way.
His eyes narrowed slightly: “Mr. Lin, what you’ve said makes even more eager now.”
Linghu Mingde didn’t care about the actual level of the innovative technology; he just wanted to know if the data of these two prosthetics were real.
After all, these top prosthetics would ultimately be implanted into his body.
The fact that Lin Rui’s research institute had the capability to create such perfect prosthetics was excellent news for him.
Fang Ranran next to him was also slightly distracted; she still rembered the shock when she first received the data for those two prosthetics.
Fang Ranran could hardly believe that the Biological Prosthetics Research Institute under Rui Fang Pharmaceuticals was researching such innovative technology! No wonder her father-in-law valued it so much, repeatedly urging her to ensure funding and logistics support.
Speaking of which, this guy was truly decent. If she were Lin Rui, with control over the developnt capacity and direction of this new technology, she might have thought about kicking Fang Ranran to the curb or starting anew.
As far as she knew, Lin Rui had the financial ability to do so.
Lin Rui nodded seriously: “I will certainly not disappoint father-in-law.”
His expression then turned serious: “Right, Ranran, you must be very careful when you go out these days, and it would be best to strengthen your security team. I have received credible information that soone has targeted you recently; there are people from the underworld organizing hands to try to assassinate you.”
According to the internal reports from the Security Bureau, this seems to be related to the increasingly fierce political campaigns of recent days.
Lin Rui couldn’t help but greatly admire Fang Ranran’s cunning abilities and her strong drive to action; this month alone, she traveled around several base cities, convincing several experienced independent candidates to join her party, and forcefully turned ‘Bright Front’ into a national party that attracted dia attention and was widely seen by political circles as a promising dark horse, possibly securing three to five Congressman seats in the upcoming elections.
However, according to predictions from the Bright Front Central Committee’s supercomputing model, they are likely to secure more than 10 Congress seats, and the number of City Councilors in each base city could exceed 200, shaping a strong political force.
It’s worth ntioning that the Heart of Light No.9 predicted 12 Congressman seats.
This was related to the substantial funding for the Bright Front. Not only were the Sky Fox Group and Lin Rui’s Forest Group behind ‘Bright Front’, but Fang Ranran’s own financial resources were considerable.
She also managed to bring in massive financial aid through her networking web, leading to the Bright Front’s campaign funds being extrely abundant.
Fang Ranran’s personal electoral prospects were also looking good, and with her rising exposure rate lately, her popularity was soaring day by day.
However, this heated political scene also brought great danger to Fang Ranran.
