Li Guangya was panicking.
He had just left Shanghai yesterday. Before he could sit down in his office chair, a call from the AIIB made him leave Beijing again.
“Morinaga from SoftBank is giving a briefing on the board of directors and intends to win over Academician Lu to establish the East Asia Group. I don’t think he is joking. Go figure it out.”
The person who called was Zhong Ziyu, the managing director of East Asia Energy who was appointed by the AIIB.
Li Guangya had an impression of the man wearing gold-rimd glasses. Although he still didn’t know the guy’s current status, he was still a strong figure.
Because of this, the call made Li Guangya panic.
If it were soone else, he would think of it as a joke. But this was Lu Zhou, who once ignited the light of controlled fusion and spread the quantum cables across the oceans...
The sa amount of stock held in the hands of an ordinary person would just be a huge sum of money.
But in Lu Zhou’s hand, that was equivalent to a nuclear button, or so other superweapon.
With his reputation in the Pan-Asian cooperation, this might just be possible.
On the way from the station to Jin Ling University, Li Guangya, who was sitting in a maglev train, ordered his office assistant to inform the Jin Ling University of his visit. He also called Secretary-General Wu Shuhua, who was visiting abroad, and inford her of the situation here.
“This is the ss you caused, you better think of a solution!”
Not surprisingly, after hearing the news, Wu Shuhua went crazy.
Li Guangya pinched his eyebrows with his index finger and thumb as he said with a headache, “What can I do? Who would have thought that those shares are still in his hands?”
“If his existence threatens the stability of Pan-Asia, I advise you to give up as soon as possible... It is no longer about the space elevator. His existence may have already beco a fuse for us to slide into a deeper abyss. Although I don’t recomnd this, if you have to—”
“No!” After hearing Secretary Wu’s words, Li Guangya imdiately vetoed, “With his prestige in Asia and the world, if anything happens to him, it will be a heavy blow to our alliance!”
After a pause, he slowed down and continued, “The situation is not so bad now. Don’t think too much about it. I’m on my way to Jin Ling University. I’ll talk with him face-to-face later. I’ll call you about it later.”
Wu Shuhua: “Better so!”
The phone call ended.
After turning off the holographic cara, Li Guangya leaned on the seat with a wry smile on his face.
Is the situation really not so bad?
This was probably the first ti since he took office that he had no confidence in what he said.
A giant company spanning the fields of energy, communications, and industry. Forget about the Pan-Asian Cooperation, the whole world would tremble under its feet.
And the first to kneel down was the Pan-Asian Cooperation itself...
He could even imagine how if such an oligarch was born, all the achievents of the Pan-Asian Cooperation over the past half-century would be stolen.
Is it possible for this oligarch to be born?
It’s hard to say.
Otherwise, Director Zhong would not have called .
After all, what Academician Lu held was not just stocks, but also the academic prestige that had dominated this land for a century and countless Pan-Asian people’s desire for greatness again.
After thinking of this, Li Guangya’s hands couldn’t help but tremble.
It was him who dug the man out of the grave and pushed him back to the throne. The situation was obviously starting to beco a little out of his control.
As for whether Academician Lu himself had the motive to rge East Asia Energy, East Asia Communications, and East Asia Industry...
He had no idea.
After all, it was impossible to guess with the wisdom of a re mortal, what this genius with a monster high IQ was thinking.
Take Newton as an example.
Many people only knew that Sir Newton studied theology in his later years, but they often overlooked another great achievent in his later years.
In his later years, this guy felt that bullying Robert Hooke was not exciting enough, so he went to be the director of The Royal Mint, taking on the position for 28 years.
What was the 18th century Royal Mint like? They were equivalent to the central bank of the world at the ti, even more prestigious than the governor of the Federal Reserve in the 21st century.
And how rich was he?
There was no specific docunt that recorded his deposits, but judging from Sir Issac Newton’s failed investnt, he was involved in the famous “South China Sea Company Stock Bubble” incident in European financial history and lost a total of 20,000 GBP.
According to the guidance price of gold in September 1717, one ounce of gold could be exchanged for 3 pounds 17 shillings and 10 pence. Taking into account the gold production and holdings in the 17th century, one could only imagine what a huge sum of 20,000 GBP was.
Anyone that could afford to lose 20,000 pounds was equivalent to a billionaire back then.
It was certain that smart people could flourish in any era, but who could guarantee that Academician Lu would return to his old profession and beco a scholar?
Even Newton, who was a child prodigy, was able to build windmills and water clocks with his bare hands. He later gave up academics and went to pursue vanity. Who could guarantee that Academician Lu would stay a mathematics professor?
Wouldn’t it be more fun to collect money in the financial market?
After thinking of this, Li Guangya beca more nervous.
He really didn’t expect that the stocks weren’t liquidated in the bankruptcy of Star Sky Technology half a century ago. Instead, they were placed in a safe at the Bank of China and kept for a century.
Isn’t this crazy?
Why did Star Sky Technology go bankrupt if they had those stocks?! They also turned the Jinling Institute for Advanced Study into a public institution and gave it to the education departnt of Pan-Asian Cooperation...
The only possibility is that he planned all of this from the beginning.
Li Guangya got off the maglev train in Jinling. He rushed to Jin Ling University without stopping.
According to what he heard, Lu Zhou usually arrived here early in the morning.
In any case, he had to find him before Softbank and find out the situation...
He soon arrived at Jin Ling University.
Li Guangya saw Principal Cai Mingrui in the parking lot in front of the school. He didn’t have ti to greet him, so he imdiately asked, “Where is Academician Lu? Where is he now?”
Cai Mingrui was slightly stunned. He frowned sowhat inexplicably and said, “Academician Lu is in the laboratory... Is there a problem?”
“Laboratory?” After hearing this unexpected answer, Li Guangya was taken aback. He subconsciously asked, “What experint is he doing?”
Principal Cai shook his head.
“I don’t know... I only rember that he borrowed a materials science laboratory. But I can help you find out.”
“No need, just take there!” Li Guangya said in a serious tone. “I have important business to talk to him about!
“I’m not joking; this is related to the future of the Pan-Asian Cooperation!”
