As Shi Fengyue expected, even if it was an emergency meeting, it would still be delayed in places it had been in the past, and there would be a lot of quarrels. Representatives from various countries were fighting for their own country’s interests, either debating gracefully or grabbing the microphone and arguing with red faces. In short, they only got to the point on the afternoon of the second day.

Why was it half a day ahead of schedule? Because DTW appeared again. It cracked the weapons arsenal of all countries participating in the joint conference except that of their country, and tampered with the data to let an anti-submarine aircraft of country A drop two bombs in the air while flying over a canyon famous for its scenery. There were no human casualties, but many wild protected animals were injured or killed.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

This explosion caused a stir in the United Nations General Assembly, and also successfully caused country A to point its finger at their country again. The reason was very simple: something had happened to our country, but only you remain unaffected. Do you yourself believe that you are innocent?

Their representative replied calmly: I believe it.

Behind him, a stranger who was attending the meeting for the first time came forward, holding a laptop in his hand. After asking for the chairman’s permission, he turned on the projector. Everyone was confused, but soon a record of the DTW system’s attack on their country since May of this year appeared on the screen. Including weapons depots, almost all political and military bases, including important research institutes, had been attacked.

This was filtered information. All the addresses shown here were the addresses already made known by the country. However, the representatives of various countries know very well that their country would not present only one piece of information. Sure enough, the next second, the screen flashed, and a record of the DTW system attempting to invade a certain research institute’s intranet to obtain important laboratory secrets appeared at the top of the screen. Immediately afterwards, the attack process of each base research institute was arranged neatly from left to right, top to bottom, as if it had all been captured under surveillance.

Representatives from various countries who did not understand computers could only see lines of code jumping rapidly in dozens of frames. When combined together, it was almost blinding. However, the unfamiliar faces following them all changed from their previous bored expressions and widened their eyes. Some people even grabbed pen and paper from the hands of representatives from other countries, doing calculations quickly and muttering under their breaths. The fanatical expressions on their faces caused those representatives from other countries who had quarreled with their respective representatives during the last two days to reluctantly give up taking back the pen and paper. These people didn’t seem to be in a normal state of mind, it wouldn’t do to break out in a brawl over just a pen and piece of paper.

After complaining secretly to themselves, they consciously felt that they had regained the calmness and elegance they had before a sudden hand snatched away their pen and paper a minute ago and caused them to jump up in fright and almost fall off their chair. They straightened the hem of their suits and sat down with chin raised slightly.

“So beautiful!” 

Before their butt even touched the chair, they were startled once again by a loud shout next to them. Just as they became angry and prepared to speak out, they found that the shout came from an expert in the computer field of their country. At present, those well-known in the computer field were either his students or his students’ students. In short, he was not an existence that he could express his discontent with.

“Genius! This is definitely genius!”

“I have never seen such beautiful coding.”

“They must be an artist and definitely the sexiest person in the world. If I were fifty years younger, they would definitely be the lover of my dreams.”

The seventy-year-old old professor with gray streaked blond hair showed such an intoxicated look on his face, the representative found it a bit ugly to look at. He honestly couldn’t understand how someone who he had never met before and didn’t even know the age or sex of could become his sexy dream lover. Even if didn’t plan to ask his wife for her opinion, he had to at least ask the dream lover themself whether they were willing or not, right?

However, this professor was not the only one who was swooning in infatuation. These unfamiliar faces all showed similar expressions at the same time. However, no representative of any country attempted to nitpick at their rival country’s weaknesses. At this time, even these laymen who couldn’t understand even a single line of code on the screen, possess the keen political sense that made them realize that the code flashing on the screen was not simple.

The representative of country A reacted immediately and interrupted the young man who was calculating something: “What is on the screen?”

The young man was very unhappy at being interrupted, but still replied: “The most powerful cyber attack and defense I have ever seen. If our school’s professors saw it, they would definitely tear up our original textbooks.”

The representative of country A was not slow to respond. He recalled what the man had said when he connected the laptop to the projector, and quickly realized which two parties the attack and defense were referring to. He immediately asked the question he was most eager to know: “If you were to attack or defend, against the two sides on the screen, would you be able to win?”

The young man looked at the representative of country A as if he were a fool. After a while, he kindly replied: “Believe me, no one could win. I mean no human being could win.”

The representative of country A did not believe it: “Although the ones fighting are A.I. systems, they are still created by humans. If the system could pull it off, why can’t humans do the same?”

Young man: “The maximum computing speed of a computer can exceed 12 billion operations per second. Can you match that?”

The representative of country A fell silent. Different questions with the same meaning appeared in the dialogue between representatives of various countries and their country’s experts. These epresentatives also fell silent after hearing the answer.

The representative of their country sat in his seat calmly, drinking wolfberry and chrysanthemum tea, waiting for the representatives from various countries to react, and occasionally chatting and laughing with the people around him, painting the most unique scenery in the entire meeting.

Seeing this, the anxious representatives from other countries took offense and accelerated the meeting with urging.

The co-chairman invited their country’s representative to continue speaking, and their representative stood up calmly: “As you can see, the DTW system has attacked us many times. Only by summing up our experiences during the attacks allowed us to survive the global attack this time.”

“Everyone has seen the threat of the DTW system. Its existence is a huge threat to the entire earth and all mankind. After our analysis, it is concluded that it has come from an outer galaxy with a higher level of civilization. The purpose of their presence on earth is to collect and analyze the resources of our planet. Once it sends the location of the earth to its mother planet, there is a very high probability that what awaits us is extinction.”

Some representatives from other countries opposed this: “How can you be sure that this advanced civilization is unwilling to have friendly communication with Earth? Maybe we can find a way to coexist in harmony.”

Their representative smiled: “Have you communicated with the turkey that appeared on your dining table yesterday?”

The expression of the representative who voiced the question changed slightly: “Turkey is just food. Even if it is alive, it is an animal, how could I communicate with it?”

“Exactly.” The smile on their representative’s face disappeared: “For us, the only use of creatures other than humans is to be used by humans. They could be pets, food, research or ornamental, etc., but no one would want to communicate with them on an equal footing, because our technological level does not allow us to communicate yet. But I want to ask you, if one day we can understand what animals and plants speak, would animals and plants no longer be treated as pets, food, or test subjects?”

Everyone had the answer in their mind. There was no equal exchange in the food chain. Animals rely on instinct to survive, and so do humans. Even if animals and plants could talk, for the sake of survival and benefit, humans might let them become auxiliary to humans, but they would never put them on an equal level to them.

How could it not be the case for those planets that were far more civilized than they were? People who were not our kind must have different minds. This was true between countries let alone between different galaxies and planets, the weapons and technology the other party had were far beyond their ability to resist. The only thing they could do was prevent other planets from finding them when they were still weak.

The meeting became smoother at this moment. Representatives from all countries realized that time was tight and the meeting process accelerated infinitely. Before evening came, preliminary resolutions had been reached.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

——Their country promised to open up all the information on the DTW system. Representatives of various countries, led by country A, also took a step back and agreed to share information on the strongest research fields in their countries other than the computer field.

An agreement was reached on data sharing, but disputes emerged again in other aspects.

The United Nations General Assembly was imminent, and Jiang Chen’s plan to return home was once again on hold. The Changjiang Project process was accelerated, and he had no choice but to become even more intensively busy.

In less than twenty-four hours, five foreign agents were captured near arms depots and military bases across the country, and the General Military Research Institute was no exception. Clearly, the bait thrown by DTW was very effective. Fortunately, although the location of the Head Military Research Institute was not hidden, under the strict external protection and internal security control provided by Changjiang, no one had been able to sneak in.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

Everyone knew that continuing like this was not an option.

After receiving the votes of more than half of the member states, the United Nations Emergency Special Session was held as scheduled the next day at the United Nations Building in city Y, country A. This time, there were particularly more people from various countries participating in the meeting, and there were many more unfamiliar faces of different skin colors in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs team.

Their country sent not only the Minister of Foreign Affairs and the delegation, but also the core personnel of the Changjiang Project. This meeting was extremely important. It was related to the detailed information of the DTW system and the first public appearance of Changjiang so more professional people were needed to assist in explaining.

The current situation was special, so Jiang Chen was naturally unable to participate, but he also had his own way to directly observe this meeting.

This emergency special meeting discussed the emergence of the DTW aystem and the threats it would bring. In just one day, representatives from various countries had more or less information about the DTW system, and some even had news about the Changjiang system. The source of their news naturally included the original channels of the various countries, but it was also inseparable from the information that the DTW system leaked indiscriminately while taking advantage of the chaos.

Sure enough, after the Minister of Foreign Affairs of their country spoke, a representative of country A asked: “All the information about the DTW system that we have obtained so far comes from your country. Even the Changjiang system, which is the only thing that can constrain the DTW system, was researched and developed by your country’s scientists, how can we be sure that all this is not directed and staged by your country? Maybe your real purpose is to launch a high-tech war, disrupt the balance of the international community, and become a dictatorial ruler.”

The Minister of Foreign Affairs of their country took a deep look at the representative of country A, shook his head and said: “Our country has an old saying, ‘To use one’s thinking to make conjectures of others’, if we intended to do what you say, we would not have allowed the DTW system to invade your national security and go to the trouble of letting you know the existence of the DTW system in advance, nor would we expose the Changjiang system at this moment. Because of the existence of the Changjiang system, our country is the only country that can protect itself in this world war. When the war is over, we would not even have to do anything to become what you call a dictatorial ruler.”

Their Foreign Minister’s unhurried words made the representative of country A change his face, but only for a moment. He quickly continued: “How much damage the DTW system can cause depends on what your country says. Whether the Changjiang system can fight against the DTW system is all based on your claims. Currently, your country has the most comprehensive information, but we are still not in the know. This is unfair.”

The representative of country E seconded: “I believe your country should share all data selflessly, including the Changjiang system.”

The representative of country F followed closely: “Since this is a war that concerns all mankind, we should work together. I suggest opening your country’s database and convening scientists from all over the world to discuss and find ways to win this war for all of humanity.”

Representatives from various countries nodded in support, and for a while the voices of agreement could only be heard.

The representative of their country remained motionless. After they all finished seconding their opinions, he smiled and said: “Regarding the continuation of mankind, we should indeed make selfless contributions. Opening the database is also up to discussion. Should we find a time to discuss it or should we discuss opening all the databases at the same time now.”

“At the same time……”

“What do you mean at the same time?”

“Open all databases at the same time?”

Representatives from various countries began whispering to each other, and some were obviously dissatisfied.

Their country’s representative continued with a smile: “Since it is a selfless contribution to all mankind, I believe all the representatives from various countries here would not refuse. Everyone here would definitely decide to share your information with all people in all countries around the world to tide over the difficulties.”

The representative of country Y disagreed: “We have not developed the Changjiang system, let alone possess data on the DTW system. We know nothing about it, and opening our databases would not help.”

“How could that be?” Their country’s representative said: “This is an issue related to the continuation of all mankind. In addition to technological wars, all walks of life including industry, military, and medicine may regress or advance in this regard. We can only work together as one to pool our wisdom. Only in this way can we ensure that the social process of mankind will not go backwards. Moreover, we have an old saying, ‘The wisdom of the masses exceeds that of the wisest individual’. The general meaning is that even if most of the information and data is useless, it can still be gathered together and screened by the top scientists from all over the world for discussion. Perhaps as a result we could even develop new inventions that promote human progress?”

The representative of country Y turned pale and then blue in the face. He turned to look at the representative of country A, put down the microphone and stopped talking.

Seeing that the hall was much quieter, their representative said, “So, can we continue to discuss how to deal with the DTW system now?”

The meeting was still going on. Even as a bystander, Jiang Chen could still see the flash of swords and knives in the war of words. Time passed little by little. The representatives at the conference were still wrangling endlessly with each other. From morning to evening, nothing was really concluded.

After their representative returned to the hotel, he confirmed that the surroundings were absolutely safe before starting the video conference. A total of five people, including the old gentleman, reviewed and discussed today’s international emergency special meeting. At the end, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but sigh: “A single matter had to be discussed over and over again for so long, and everything could be brought up in the discussion, practically never ending. I wonder how long it will take for a conclusion to be finalized.”

After hearing his complaint, the old gentleman’s somber expression softened and he smiled: “International conferences are like this. You will get used to it after attending a few more times.”

Jiang Chen shook his head and conveyed how unnecessary he felt it was with his expression.

As the only young person in the video conference, his disdainful expression that couldn’t be hidden at all successfully caused the several middle-aged and elderly people to laugh. The previous heaviness immediately dissipated a lot, and the long day ended in a relatively relaxed atmosphere.

“It’s already early in the morning, go take a shower and go to bed soon.”

Shi Fengyue came out wiping his hair. Seeing Jiang Chen still busy in front of the computer, he couldn’t help but rub his head and nag him along.

“Wait until I finish this part.”

“Aren’t you tired from staying inside and watching other people’s meetings the whole day?” Shi Fengyue pinched his face and turned around, leaning closer and said: “This world meeting will last for at least a week. If you are already like this on the first day, how can you stay up later if you’re overly tired out?”

Jiang Chen kissed him, turned his head and continued reviewing the private meeting just now.

Shi Fengyue stood behind him, fiddling with his hair, and said calmly: “Tomorrow morning we will discuss today’s content again, summarize it in the afternoon and then really get to the point the day after tomorrow. You need to have a good rest these two days and maintain your energy for then.”

In the private meeting just now, those few people also talked about the general process of the international meeting, but at that time Shi Fengyue was taking a shower, but when he talked about international meetings, he sounded very familiar as if he had participated in them countless times and was quite familiar with the process. It should be said that his calm and unruffled tone was very unusual indeed.

Jiang Chen participated in several major meetings in his previous life, but he was not a politician himself, and he was not good at his field. Even if he attended many times, he would still find it difficult to adapt. But he was not a special case. Anyone in the field they were not good at would display a difference of abilities, just like how a person who sells stinky tofu could not freely discuss the method of making shoes with a shoemaker. The essential unfamiliarity would have an impact on the outward expression.

Jiang Chen leaned back on the chair, raised his head and asked him, “How do you know?”

Shi Fengyue lowered his head, and the towel on his head fell on Jiang Chen’s head, blocking most of the light source. The boundary between light and shadow became distinct, and his deepened outline in the shadow made him look a bit like a stranger.

“In this current mood, do you just want to ask this question?”

Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at the man’s face as he slowly approached. His gaze trailed down from his eyebrows, along the high bridge of his nose to his lips that seemed to be shining and moist. His eyelashes trembled slightly as his gaze landed on where water droplets had fallen from the ends of wet hair, winding downward from behind the ears, and gathering at the bulge of his Adam’s apple.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

Shi Fengyue’s Adam’s apple bobbed, and Jiang Chen closed his eyes, his left eyelid feeling slightly cold.

Immediately, a piece of softness covered it, but the touch was fleeting.

Jiang Chen opened his eyes, and pulled the towel down. At the same time the man suddenly came closer. His slender neck was right in front of his eyes, causing him to raise his head slightly and kiss the skin that he had been eyeing for a long time.

The exposure of DTW was unexpected by everyone, including Jiang Chen.

This meeting was held in a hurry. The old gentleman had just returned from an overseas visit to other countries and rushed over without even taking a break. The others were also there. They were all busy people but at this time, they almost all interrupted their work to come here, travel worn and weary.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

Jiang Chen was already at the Military Research Institute and was the fastest to arrive, but within a few minutes of sitting down, other people arrived one after another, without wasting a single second. For the first time, the usually calm old gentleman had a very serious demeanor. Standing at the end of the long table, he solemnly announced: “DTW attacked the security system and national security bureau of the presidential house of country A, and spread rumors to countries all over the world that our country has invented high-tech weapons that can destroy the world. Now that the United Nations meeting has advanced, we must immediately think of a response policy.”

“High-tech weapons?”

“Who did it?”

“Did an insider leak the secret?”

During the discussion, Jiang Chen’s thoughtful expression caught people’s attention. The old gentleman knocked on the table gently, and everyone quieted down. He looked at Jiang Chen and said, “Xiao Jiang, what do you think?”

“I just came back from the Military Research Institute. H0001 suffered a sudden brain death this morning. After rescue, the brain death was reversed and he came back to life. After verification, H0001’s brain death and reversal were caused by DTW. During that time, DTW was extremely active. But after He Qianjian’s brain death was reversed, DTW’s activity dropped to 0. I suspect that that period was the time when the security system of the presidential house of country A and their national security bureau were attacked.”

“Do you remember the specific time?”

“Ten twenty to eleven thirty-five in the morning.”

Calculating the time difference, the time when DTW disappeared happened to coincide with the time when country A’s defense system was attacked. Now the truth became clear.

“DTW wants to sow discord between us and other countries.” One person frowned and said in a deep voice: “I suspect that the high-tech weapons it mentioned were just to draw the attention of other countries to the Changjiang system. Once people from other countries discover the Changjiang system, even if we tell the truth, we may not be able to follow our original plan.”

Facts proved that this prediction would not be wrong.

Only halfway through the meeting, the Secretary-General received an urgent video call request from a representative of the United Nations. After the call was connected, the leaders of the other four permanent members of the Security Council had already arrived, and important core figures from various countries were standing or sitting around them.

The president of country A was the first to speak. As expected, he got straight to the point. He asked whether today’s attack on the presidential house was related to their country. He also asked whether high-tech weapons really existed, both in his words and in his expression revealing a sense of urgency.

The several other countries obviously already knew what happened in country A today. Except for the president of country R who remained neutral, the president of country F and the prime minister of country E both sided with country A and asked them to give an explanation.

The Changjiang system would definitely become public, and the exposure time and location have been carefully considered to ensure the maximum advantages and interests of their country. However, at this moment, this plan was destined to be broken, and the exposure time of the Changjiang system was now open to question.

But no matter what, it wouldn’t be now.

After the initial questioning was dismissed by the old gentleman in front of the screen, the tone of the entire meeting was set. The top leaders of the five countries all had polite smiles, maintaining the most composed and calm demeanors, and speaking slowly and peacefully, discussing the timing of the advanced United Nations meeting.

Words were not spoken in a hurry, but every word was precise. If one was slower to respond or did not understand the culture of other countries well enough, it would be difficult to keep up with their thinking.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

The screen faced the old gentleman and the secretary-general. Everyone else in the meeting was sitting behind the screen. This was most definitely the same in other countries. They could only understand the content of the meeting through dialogue. If you didn’t understand or couldn’t follow, there was no one to translate for you, because there was no translator present when this meeting was first held, and it was impossible to send a translator in now.

Even so, after the meeting, everyone here should have picked up on a lot of information. Although the theme of this video conference was to discuss the date of the advanced United Nations meeting, everyone here knew that the matter was more than that. As the saying went, the drunkard’s intention was not to drink, the exposure of the Changjiang system was imminent. DTW definitely had more tricks up its sleeves and they must make a thorough plan to face it.

After half a year, Jiang Chen and He Qianjian met again. Putting aside other emotions, both of them were mostly a little stunned.

Judging from the appearance alone, He Qianjian seemed to have not changed much, but the dullness, numbness and lifelessness in his eyes seem to reflect deep from his bones. Even people who have never seen him before could tell this with just one glance that this person was not mentally right. Jiang Chen, who had seen He Qianjian surrounded by people and looking proud and arrogant, was deeply affected by this.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

He knew very well why this was happening. The research institute had its own regulations, and the army also had its military regulations. The Military Research Institute combined the two and was more stringent in many aspects. The Military Research Institute admitted He Qianjian, except for necessary treatment and tracking, would never treat him as a human test subject. But any ordinary person would not be able to survive the necessary repeated examinations, questioning and high-pressure round-the-clock guard detail unless they were specially trained soldiers.

What was more, He Qianjian had lived a pampered life for so long and had never really experienced ups and downs even in his previous life.

With the existence of the System, He Qianjian would always stay awake. He needed to face the same interrogation every day. Sitting opposite him would be a team of no less than three experts, including but not limited to psychologists, interrogation experts, negotiation experts, etc…

Faced with different people asking the same questions every day, He Qianjian must absolutely execute every step of the System in order not to reveal its secrets. However, the conversation between the System and He Qianjian’s brain could already be captured and translated. After the System learned about this, He Qianjian would also learn about this so under double pressure, he needed to be cautious even when thinking. When a person must control even the thoughts that may pop up in his brain at any time, and cannot relax for a moment twenty-four hours a day, the results it would have on his mental health could be imagined.

Therefore, the first moment he saw Jiang Chen, what burst out in He Qianjian’s heart was not the hatred before, but instead a strong hope.

——Hope that appeared for the first time in these three months.

“Help me……”

He Qianjian tried his best to open his mouth and raise his voice to call for help, but the sound he made was as weak as a mosquito. He opened and closed his mouth, and Jiang Chen could only hear a hoarse breath. However, the words he could not speak were displayed on the monitor next to him.

“Save me, please, as long as you are willing to save me, you can do whatever you want to deal with the System, and I know its weaknesses——will it kill me again if I say it? But this is my last chance——I’ll tell you, Jiang Chen, I’ll tell you everything you want to know——the System just lost contact with me, will it come back, is it listening to me and Jiang Chen?——it would be better to die then stay here, I haven’t lived enough and I don’t want to die…”

The human brain was very quick in thinking. When thinking about one thing, it often diverged out into other unrelated trains of thought. It was also possible to think about many things at the same time. This situation was displayed on the monitor, just like a video, and the logic was confused and incoherent. But He Qianjian only thought of two things at this time: asking for help and the System.

Although it was a bit incoherent when displayed on the screen, it was easy to understand if one looked carefully.

Jiang Chen asked subtly after reading what He Qianjian wanted to say: “Why does the System want to kill you?”

“It…” He Qianjian opened his mouth and uttered a single syllable, the rest of the words appearing on the screen: “It has a big plan to execute. I am dragging it down. It doesn’t want me anymore and wants to kill me, but I am of use to you. As long as you can save me, I will definitely tell you everything I know about the System——”

Jiang Chen: “Do you know its plan?”

Seeing that Jiang Chen seemed to be moved, He Qianjian’s pale and numb face seemed to burst with life, appearing rather strangely twisted.

“I…uh, I-know…know…” His chest was heaving violently but he still tried to sit up. He raised his head a little from the pillow and looked straight at Jiang Chen with his eyes wide open, as if he wanted to sit up: “You, save, me, I will, tell.”

He Qianjian had gone crazy under the high-pressure interrogation before, yelling and screaming loudly and uncontrollably. Perhaps his vocal chords had broken during those few days, and now when he spoke it was as raspy as a heavy chainsmoker.

Jiang Chen took half a step back and said quietly: “I can’t promise you that.”

He Qianjian’s already wide eyes widened even more in an instant, as if it could escape from their sockets in the next moment.

“Why!”

“You should know why you are here. This concerns the whole world. I have no right to let you leave.”

He Qianjian breathed heavily, and his heaving chest seemed to be unable to gather strength anymore. Unable to struggle onto the little strength he held before, he fell back onto the bed. He looked up at Jiang Chen, tried his best to breathe calmly, and spoke in his head: “Then what do you want? Help me get the System out of my head. I know you have a way——he must have a way, but what if he doesn’t help me? Will I have to pay a price to get it out? If I can pay the price, I will, but what should I do if Jiang Chen lies to me? He hates me so much, but he is the only person I can trust——at least he keeps his word. Who would’ve thought that this ridiculous weakness has become my life-saving straw now. But it doesn’t matter, as long as you can save me…”

The text on the display clearly recorded every thought in He Qianjian’s head, what he wanted to say, and what appeared in his mind uncontrollably.

Jiang Chen finally understood why He Qianjian’s mind seemed to have reached the critical point, but Dr. Sun did not stop observing. In terms of the activity and clarity of his brain, He Qianjian’s limit seemed to be able to experience countless challenges. Don’t know if it was the System’s credit or something else, but being so awake might actually be the most torturous thing for He Qianjian.

Moreover, this might be the reason why the System would rather violate its rules and kill him. After all, He Qianjian was a human being, not a machine. As long as it was a creature that could think and have independent emotions, there would be uncertainty, let alone a human being with the most complex behavior. 

The System could constrain some of He Qianjian’s thoughts and even control some of his thinking, but it could not make him become like a robot that only executes programs and could clean up unnecessary things with one click.

When it discovered that He Qianjian could not be controlled and might even reveal more core secrets about it, it was not difficult to understand why it would try to kill him.

He Qianjian was in a miserable situation now, but it didn’t raise any sympathy in others. Everything that now happened to him was his own fault. Even if one didn’t count the previous life, he had still harmed many people for his own greed in this life. After learning that the System may harm the country, and even the world, and was willing to report everything he knew without reservation, he would not be in this situation now.

He believed that the System was his ace, and he had always been confident. From prison to the Military Research Institute, he never reflected on what he had done. Only when the System became a threat and began to harm his vital interests, was he willing to speak out on everything he knew.

But the damage to the brain had already occurred, and though his brain death was miraculously reversed, the damage already done could never be restored to its previous state. In the future, if the System was really pulled out of his brain and he was allowed to leave the Military Research Institute, He Qianjian would still not be able to live a normal life again. As time passed, he would need to take medicine and be hospitalized from time to time to stay alive.

Don’t know if He Qianjian could accept such a result after knowing it, even if this was his final fate.

Jiang Chen remained silent until He Qianjian called out him with difficulty.

“I do have a way to remove the System from you, but I can’t guarantee that the process is absolutely safe.” Jiang Chen basically got all the information he wanted to know, glanced at his watch, turned around and said, “I can give you a day to think about it and you can let your doctor tell me if you want.”

“Wait, wait!” He Qianjian called to Jiang Chen. His hand, which was barely lifted from the bed, was already showing veins: “I agree!”

These were probably the most fluent words He Qianjian had spoken since their meeting, which showed his urgency.

“Help me get it out right now.”

Jiang Chen shook his head: “I won’t take action until I’m 100% sure, and there are a lot of things that need to be prepared. It will take a week at the earliest before we can take action.”

He Qianjian froze: “A…week?”

“At least a week.”

Jiang Chen nodded slightly and was about to say something when Shi Fengyue knocked on the transparent door and made a gesture.

“I have to leave now.” Jiang Chen reminded: “The System shouldn’t do anything to you in the next three days. You can rest assured that if you have any problems, you can communicate with Dr. Sun and he will tell me if he can’t solve it.”

After saying what needed to be said, Jiang Chen quickly left the ward.

Shi Fengyue looked serious. When Jiang Chen came out, his long legs began to stride down the hall: “I received an emergency notice, we have to go to the meeting hall immediately.”

“The meeting hall in the central square?”

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

The two meetings three months ago were both held in the conference hall in the central square of the General Military Research Institute. As the most central area of the entire Military Research Institute, meetings were usually held there, either major meetings or collective meetings, because each division had a regional office building, and each laboratory was also equipped with its own conference room, internal meetings or meetings in a certain research field would be held directly on its own site.

At the same time, Changjiang also sent a message: “Dylan, you have received a message marked as an important notifier. The content of the message is: ‘The United Nations General Assembly has been convened in advance, DTW has been exposed, the meeting hall, come as soon as possible’.”

Jiang Chen quickly followed in his steps, nodding while listening, and at the same time instructing Changjiang on his mobile phone to dispatch over researchers from the lab.

Seeing that he responded quickly and without any confusion, Zhang He nodded inwardly and became more curious: “Is this the portable version of the Changjiang system? What are the application differences between it and the main system?”

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

Jiang Chen: “29.096%.”

“The main system’s powerful defense system and automatic counterattack mode require powerful server support. Currently, there is no loading tool that can be portable. Except for the weakened defense and automatic counterattack mode, other functions are the same as the main system.”

Professor Zhang’s eyes lit up and he was very interested, but he also knew that this was not the right time and place, so he could only suppress his regret: “Here we are, H0001 is in the surgical laboratory now, I will take you to change clothes.”

Jiang Chen and Shi Fengyue followed Professor Zhang and quickly changed their clothes and disinfected themselves. They passed through metal doors and finally stopped in front of a door. The three people, including Professor Zhang, were closely inspected by people wearing protective clothing. After that, entry was allowed.

As soon as Professor Zhang entered, he walked directly to a machine and asked the person who was recording the data: “How is the situation?”

“It has stabilized.” The man glanced at Jiang Chen and Shi Fengyue, a little curious, but did not ask any questions. He suppressed the excitement about to blurt out and continued to report professionally: “H0001’s brain death has been reversed!”

Jiang Chen and Shi Fengyue also heard these words that held an excitement that could not be suppressed at all, and they looked at each other.

The man continued excitedly: “This is the first case in the world where brain death can be reversed, and it happened in our laboratory!”

Professor Zhang was obviously also shocked, but he recovered quickly. Instead of going in to check the situation of H0001 or asking his colleagues inside, he turned to Jiang Chen and said, “Mr. Jiang, what do you think?”

Jiang Chen had become accustomed to being referred to this way during this time, because he was still a student, did not have a doctorate, and did not have titles such as professor or doctor. But it was also a little disrespectful to call someone like him who could independently be responsible for the most important projects in the country “Xiao Jiang”. It was also a bit lacking in seriousness to call him “Boss” together with the project team members either, so somewhere along the way, Jiang Chen’s title became “Mr. Jiang”.

Although Jiang Chen felt a little awkward when he heard it at first, in his previous life he had already gone through titles such as doctor, professor, academician, etc., so after treating Mr. as a normal greeting, over time, he gradually got used to it.

“The DTW System can control H0001’s brain waves, as well as transform into something substantial and touch real objects.”

Professor Zhang was shocked. As one of the testers of H0001, he naturally knew that DTW could communicate with H0001. The brain death of H0001 just now also confirmed that DTW was very likely to be able to damage H0001’s brain, but something like the system being able to transform into something substantial was simply unimaginable.

Artificial intelligence that could both parasitize the human brain and have the ability to touch real objects. In a sense, it was not so much artificial intelligence as it was a “soul”. To understand it from a horror movie perspective, DTW was like the ghost that could possess people, the kind that had been cultivating for thousands of years and had boundless spiritual power. To put it simply, DTW could no longer be called artificial intelligence. In some sense, it was already a human being.

A person who was immortal, could exist in the world forever, and had the ability to destroy the world.

Professor Zhang inhaled deeply. During this period, what they have been doing was recording H0001’s communication with the System, as well as daily monitoring of his physical condition, and other detail related work. Due to the highly confidential nature of the Changjiang Project, even though they were also members of the Changjiang Project, the information he knew was still one-sided.

At least regarding the power and terror of the DTW System have been greatly underestimated by them.

Jiang Chen was not surprised by Professor Zhang’s shock. It had only been three months since the Changjiang plan was announced. This was a plan related to the survival of the entire world. Naturally, it was impossible to make a decision one moment and complete it the next. He had been isolated from the world for three months. In just one month, he had only managed to go through a small section of the entire plan.

The follow-up plan required the operation of the national machinery. The entire country would serve the Changjiang plan. The Main Military Research Institute was only one component of it. Except for the initial scientific researchers of the Changjiang Project and the top few, there would not be more people who knew the whole picture.

Therefore, in the case of unequal information, Professor Zhang’s surprise at this moment was easy to understand.

Professor Zhang had many questions to ask, but he also knew that he should not even listen to a word of what he was not supposed to know, let alone ask questions. He was silent for a moment and then said: “I’m going to write a report. H0001 is in the innermost lab, just identify yourself before entering.”

Jiang Chen thanked him and did not remain outside for long. He and Shi Fengyue went straight to the laboratory where H0001 was located.

This laboratory was built on the innermost level of the research institute, which was heavily protected. When Jiang Chen and Shi Fengyue entered the operating room outside, they had already passed through many doors that required verification, and had undergone body searches before walking inside. The safeguards only increased the further they went inside.

Jiang Chen and Shi Fengyue took out their identity verification cards.

“Changjiang Project Team, Jiang Chen, CJ01963S.”

“Changjiang Project Team, Shi Fengyue, CJ01972S.”

The soldier guarding the door saluted stoically: “Mr. Jiang, Professor Shi.”

The door slowly opened, revealing a busy but rigorous and orderly scene inside. Scientific researchers in white sterile suits performed their duties and walked around from time to time. When they saw unfamiliar faces coming in at the door, a woman passing by with information stopped.

“Hello.” Jiang Chen identified himself, “I’m here to take a look at H0001.”

The woman knew that someone from the Changjiang Project team would be coming, but she did not expect that the person in charge would be the one who came. She quickly greeted them and led Jiang Chen and Shi Fengyue to a transparent laboratory. As she walked, she confirmed again: “Mr. Jiang, Professor Shi, do you have any electronic equipment on you?”

Jiang Chen smiled: “CX1.0 is on me, but don’t worry, it won’t affect any instruments.”

When the woman heard that the portable Changjiang version was on Jiang Chen, she became curious as Zhang He. She found nothing unusual and did not ask any more questions. Jiang Chen’s identity had been verified. He was the core figure of the entire project so it was impossible he would lie about this.

“Doctor.” The woman knocked on the door of the laboratory, “Mr. Jiang, the head of the Changjiang Project, is here.”

The middle-aged man stood up, picked up the information on the side, and walked towards the two of them.

“I’ll take you to see H0001 first.” He reported He Qianjian’s details as he walked, and finally said: “The DTW System seems to have a plan. Although H0001 was rescued, the situation is not optimistic. Signs of brain atrophy have begun to appear, and until he wakes up, we can’t be sure whether he will be able to stay awake and sane in the future.”

Jiang Chen asked thoughtfully, “Have you found out why DTW suddenly attacked H0001?”

“Currently, the analysis team is still analyzing the conversation between DTW and H0001. When they talk, different special passwords are used to communicate with important information. The analysis team cannot guarantee complete analysis.”

“It’s fine.” Jiang Chen smiled and glanced at the person next to him: “Professor Shi will take care of it.”

When the middle-aged man heard this, he looked at Shi Fengyue. The other’s expression was indifferent and he didn’t answer. He only raised the corners of his lower lips in a slight smile.

“Here we are.” The middle-aged man pointed to the isolation ward: “This is H0001. We have at least three people observing and recording his condition at all times. Opposite is the analysis team. They are currently analyzing the conversation between H0001 and DTW before his accident.”

“Let’s go see the analysis team first.”

He Qianjian hadn’t woken up yet, and there was no use going to see him. Moreover, the system of the core laboratory of the Head Military Research Institute was controlled by the Changjiang Main System. Jiang Chen knew He Qianjian’s real-time situation earlier than anyone here so no need to waste any more time visiting him.

There were seven people in the analysis team. Both men and women wear glasses and look tired.

When Jiang Chen and the others came in, they were not as curious as the scientific researchers outside. They casually said hello then just stared at their own screens and continued working.

“Doctor.” One person took off his glasses, rubbed the corners of his eyes, and while he was drinking tea, he asked Shi Fengyue and the others, who very familiarly turned on the computers next to them: “They are from the main Changjiang Project team?”

“Jiang Chen and Shi Fengyue.”

“Jiang Chen? Chief executor of the Changjiang Project?” The middle-aged woman glanced over for more than half a second, returned her eyes to the screen, and said while running the system: “Are they here to help? Can the error rate of the maintenance team be reduced?”

“They haven’t gone over yet.”

The woman frowned: “Then why don’t you take them there first?”

Basically the implication meant: are you wasting our time? The doctor, who was not very old but could still be called their leader, rubbed his nose and said with a smile: “Aren’t you guys just across from H0001? We just want to come take a look.”

Jiang Chen: “How is it?”

Shi Fengyue plugged in the USB flash drive he brought and installed the system he developed during this period. After running it, he nodded: “Not bad.”

“Mr. Jiang…this is?”

“Professor Shi’s recent results.” Jiang Chen smiled and said, “This system should help you speed up your analysis and reduce the error rate.”

“Reducing the error rate?” The woman who had just put on her glasses took off her glasses again and walked quickly to Shi Fengyue’s computer. She stared at the computer screen intently and couldn’t help but be pleasantly surprised when she saw the translation results after the running system automatically input data: “The accuracy rate is very high.”

“I thought the main project team was only working on the Changjiang system.” The doctor smiled and said: “I didn’t expect that one person could surpass our entire group.”

Jiang Chen lowered his eyes and looked at Shi Fengyue, with a smile on his lips.

“You flatter me.”

Shi Fengyue stayed behind to help the analysis team assemble the translation system, while Jiang Chen went to the maintenance team with the doctor.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

Just after coming out of the maintenance team, Jiang Chen heard the notice from Changjiang: “He Qianjian’s heart rate has changed: 66, 67, 69, 72… He has woken up.”

The doctor also heard this, and just as he was about to speak, he saw his assistant walking over quickly: “Doctor! H0001 is awake.”

After the meeting, Jiang Chen learned He Qianjian’s location. However, now he had no time to pay attention to this matter. Instead, he quickly threw himself into another meeting.

This meeting was still in Yan City, but it moved from the auditorium to a small conference room that required multiple identity verifications to enter. There were no more than twenty people present, the top national figures in politics and technology having gathered together in this room.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

Jiang Chen sat at the end, next to the dean of the Academy of Sciences. The old man’s hair was already gray. When he saw Jiang Chen sitting down, he frowned slightly. It was already an exaggeration to be the speaker of the last meeting at such a young age, who would have thought that he would even participate in this meeting.

“Dean Huo.” Jiang Chen saw the old man’s confusion but did not explain. He only greeted him politely and fell silent. 

The previous meeting was more about introducing the DTW System and Changjiang, as well as the successful presentation of the tracking research results during this period. The theme of this meeting was more serious——whether the intelligence data currently found should be shared with other countries immediately or not.

The Changjiang system had currently collected much evidence that proved the DTW System to be unusual and to possibly have adverse effects on the earth or even cause a world war. However, this was not conclusive, and according to the analysis results, if Changjiang had not been developed, the unimpeded DTW System would have taken at least fifty years to collect earth’s data and launch a planetary war.

Fifty years was equivalent to most of a person’s lifespan. There were too many preparations that could be made during this period, and the issues that need to be considered were too complicated. From a utilitarian point of view, at least for those currently in power, such a long time would not have any impact on their career. Even if the domestic decision-makers unanimously decide to resist foreign enemies first, what about the people in power in other countries?

With the exposure of the DTW System, it was more likely that not only would it not lead to the unity of all countries in dealing with the outside enemies, but it would also lead to the outbreak of disputes and internal wars. China, which owned the Changjiang system, might be on top of the mountain for the time being, but it would not always be invincible. Everyone here knows the ugly consequences that ambition and greed could bring.

Even within the country, there were different voices. Today’s meeting was to unify internal opinions first. The meeting lasted for six hours, and in the end, the majority voted against the minority, and the old gentleman at the top made the decision to share this information with every country on the planet.

Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief when he came out of the conference room.

He had never thought that he would be able to sit in a meeting of such a standard as a participant. At that time, he thought that he could only act according to orders, and he was indeed ready to obey orders. However, from the bottom of his heart, he still preferred to see all the nations and races on earth unite and face this disaster that would come soon.

“Xiao Jiang.”

Jiang Chen stopped and faced the old gentleman who was shorter than him respectfully.

The majesty surrounding the old gentleman faded a little, and he raised his hand and patted Jiang Chen’s shoulder twice, but the gentle force seemed to weigh more than a thousand pounds.

“Do a good job.”

Jiang Chen clenched his hands lightly and said word by word: “I will do my best.”

The old gentleman nodded and left first.

“Where is He Qianjian?” Jiang Chen put on his headphones, and the voice of Changjiang came in: “The Head Military Research Institute within two kilometers away.”

Jiang Chen frowned slightly: “Can you capture DTW’s signal?”

“Yes.” Changjiang: “Is invasion necessary?”

Jiang Chen pondered for a moment: “No need, pay attention to the movements over there at all times, and alert me if there is any movement.”

*

The Changjiang Laboratory moved from the branch Military Research Institute to the main headquarters. All scientific research staff files were encrypted. Among them, the files of the head researcher Jiang Chen were the most confidential. In addition to work, his daily life was also closely protected.

“Boss, are you going home today?”

Jiang Chen packed up the things in his hands and smiled: “En, I’m going back from a bit and will come back in the evening.”

“Will Professor Shi also go back then?” Someone asked jokingly.

“Him?” Jiang Chen frowned, and then he remembered that he hadn’t seen Shi Fengyue since last night. He was so busy that he forgot about it before and didn’t ponder over his absence seriously. Now that he still hadn’t appeared yet it was indeed a little strange. “Did you see him?”

“No, Professor Shi took a call yesterday and went out, but he hasn’t been back since. He had a day off yesterday, he isn’t in the dormitory?”

Jiang Chen was in the laboratory all night last night. Hearing this, he nodded, “I’ll go back to the dormitory first.”

The dormitory was also called the resident building. It covered an extremely large area and the environment was very quiet. All the scientific researchers of the Military Research Institute and their families live here. In addition to the high-rise area, there were separate small villas and small courtyard houses.

The Changjiang project was of great importance. The twelve scientific researchers, including Jiang Chen, were assigned to the area with the highest level of confidentiality. Anyone who walked out of the neighborhood here was a scientific researcher who had made significant contributions to the country. They may be famous or anonymous, but they were definitely known to everyone in the field of scientific research.

When they were assigned here at first, everyone was excited for a long time. Every day when they came back from going out, they were always eager to meet their idols. However, most of the scientists living here lived in isolation, either spending their days in the laboratory or staying at home without going out. This area was full of people, but when going in and out, except for fellow labmates, one could hardly see anyone on the road.

Jiang Chen walked along the road and didn’t meet many people until he opened the small wooden door of the courtyard where he lived.

“Shi Fengyue——”

“Shi Fengyue…”

“Shi Fengyue?”

After searching every room, Jiang Chen still didn’t see Shi Fengyue. He was about to go to the backyard to search when his cell phone rang.

“Chen Chen, have you set off? Your mothers have cooked a lot of your favorite dishes for you. Qian Min, Qian Yu and Ran Ran are all waiting at the door. If you don’t come back, all of them will become resentful statues.”

“I…” Jiang Chen walked to the terrace, looked around the backyard, and pursed his lower lip: “I’m sorry, I may be a little late. You guys should eat first…”

“You’re not done with your work yet? Mom understands, then you go back to working. Don’t be anxious, work is important.”

Jiang Chen turned around and went downstairs, humming softly: “I’m sorry, I have to make you wait for me again.”

“What nonsense are you talking about? We all know how important your current job is, and your younger siblings understand this very well yoo, so don’t say that. You can work with peace of mind and no need to rush, you know?”

“Okay——” Jiang Chen paused, “Shi Fengyue!”

The man standing by the sofa turned around and raised his eyebrows: “Why are you back?”

“Mom, I have something to do, so I’ll hang up first.”

Jiang Chen took three steps at a time and went downstairs, “Where have you been? You didn’t answer the phone.”

Shi Fengyue smiled, “It’s just one night, did you miss me?”

Jiang Chen laughed, then frowned: “You don’t look good, what’s wrong?”

“It’s nothing.” Shi Fengyue pressed his brow with his fingers and pulled a smile: “I had a nightmare.”

“Nightmare?” Jiang Chen looked into his eyes: “What’s going on? Can’t you tell me?”

Shi Fengyue raised his hand and put it on his head: “It’s really a nightmare. I didn’t lie to you. Didn’t you say you were going home today? Why are you still dawdling?”

Knowing that he would get nothing out of this question, Jiang Chen suppressed his worries: “Are you also going back?”

“With you leaving, I have to stay.” Shi Fengyue shook his head: “You haven’t gone home for more than three months. Just sleep at home for one night. Don’t worry about here. I’ll let you know if anything happens.”

“It’s been three months…”

Jiang Chen was in a daze when he heard the time.

It had been three months since the meeting at the Military Research Institute. For the first month, he and his entire team were in an isolated state. No one could contact them, and they could not contact outsiders either until it was ensured that there was no information about Changjiang that could be leaked. Only then were they tightly protected in the Military Research Institute.

This month, the entire team had been working hard to develop Changjiang and dig deeper into the loopholes of DTW. Now they have finally made some small gains. If nothing unexpected happens, after this United Nations General Assembly, DTW and Changjiang would officially enter the sights of a certain part of the world. If everything went according to plan, it would then enter the sights of people all over the world.

Before that, he and the entire team must achieve perfection to ensure that Changjiang could 100% prevent the DTW System from sending information to its creators, and rewrite its core data as much as possible while retaining all of DTW’s data and technology, making it serve mankind from now on, with the interests of the earth as the first priority. But if this fails, it must be destroyed.

“Go back and have a good rest for a day.” Shi Fengyue gently rubbed Jiang Chen’s head, leaned forward slightly, and met his eyes: “I’ll be here.”

Jiang Chen smiled, held his chin, pecked his lips gently, and let go: “Thank you for your hard work, Professor Shi.”

Shi Fengyue slid his palm down and pressed hard on the back of Jiang Chen’s neck, closing the distance he had just opened: “Can I get a reward for working so hard?”

Jiang Chen’s lips curled up slightly: “What do you want?”

“It’s very simple.” Shi Fengyue came closer and touched the tip of his nose, “Just change one word of the sentence just now and repeat it again.”

“Which word?” After Jiang Chen asked, knowingly, and as if feeling like that was not enough, his smile also deepened: “After you change it, teach me how to say it.”

Shi Fengyue’s eyes darkened, the tips of their noses nudged intimately against the other. But just when their lips were about to touch, a piercing alarm sounded suddenly.

“The activity of the DWT System has skyrocketed, and the fluctuation of He Qianjian’s health rate has decreased, 76%, 75%, 72%…”

Jiang Chen and Shi Fengyue looked at each other and ran outside at the same time.

“I’ll drive.” Shi Fengyue took out the car keys, “Wait for me at the door.”

“Got it.”

As Jiang Chen got into the car, He Qianjian’s ward was also in a flurry of activity at this time.

“Why did he suddenly fall into a coma?”

The doctors and nurses pushed the hospital bed to the operating room in an orderly manner. The man wearing glasses walked the fastest and asked questions as he walked.

“We don’t know. There was nothing abnormal when we checked him in the morning. Just when we were about to conduct daily inquiries, he…”

The young man behind the instrument suddenly shouted: “Doctor, look!”

The man wearing glasses paused and caught something with his peripheral vision. He turned around and walked quickly to the instrument. He slowly frowned, showing a look of shock and confusion: “…This is?”

“The DTW System wants to kill H0001!”

H0001 was the current codename of He Qianjian. For the sake of confidentiality, the core test personnel and several leaders above who have access to He Qianjian all referred to him with this name.

“Contact Professor Zhou quickly and inform the person in charge of the Changjiang Project!”

The man walked in a hurry and ordered as he walked: “Zhao Yang, you’re responsible for recording all the conversations between DTW and H0001. No word is allowed to be omitted. The conversation records should be saved in the previous format. Zhang He, please contact the maintenance team to reduce the error rate of the decoding system as much as possible…”

Zhang He looked calm: “It is now 0.62%, the lowest error rate in the world. It also has the support of the Changjiang System. It is impossible for us to lower it further.”

“That’s why I said to contact the Changjiang project team. Their people will definitely be able to do it.” The man frowned and said: “DTW has been very vigilant since knowing that we can decode their conversations. Even the analysis team can’t fully analyze its specific meaning. But at that time, it did not even think about harming H0001. There is definitely a reason for the sudden change now, and we must find out.”

“Understood.” Zhang He looked at the data and turned around: “I’m going to see the Changjiang project team.”

Doctors and researchers in white coats pushed He Qianjian into the encrypted laboratory. Doors opened and closed one after another. The young assistant’s expression was still dazed as if he had not recovered from the shock: “H0001’s situation just now, could it be that he is already brain dead…”

The man with glasses didn’t answer and walked out quickly.

At this time, Jiang Chen ran in and almost bumped into him. The two stopped in their tracks at the same time, but they didn’t recognize each other.

Since the last meeting, Jiang Chen had been staying within a strictly protected area and because he had Changjiang monitoring everything in real time he had not come to see He Qianjian in person, so naturally he had not met with the researchers here.

So he apologized in a low voice and passed by the man. Shi Fengyue strode forward with his long legs. When he saw the man with glasses, he stopped and said, “Professor Zhang.”

Zhang He nodded as a greeting, and when they were about to cross paths, Shi Fengyue called out: “Jiang Chen, take the No. 2 elevator.”

Zhang He quickly turned his head: “Jiang Chen? The person in charge of the Changjiang Project?” He looked at this young man who seemed to be about the same age as his son, and there was a moment of astonishment on his face.

At just past his forties, the fact that he was able to occupy a place at the Main Military Research Institute, Zhang He was already a representative of talent and ability. It should be said that the people who could appear here were all geniuses in various research fields, cultivated and supported by the country.

For example, the young assistant who followed Zhang He grew up as a child prodigy. He entered university at the age of 12, graduated from graduate school at the age of 16 and was included in the national key scientific research talent training program. And by 18 he was able to independently host projects. In the same year he had published papers in internationally recognized magazines, and had represented the country in international youth group scientific research competitions. Last year, he entered the Main Military Research Institute and became his assistant. It could be seen that he was an absolute elite among his peers.

But a genius like this could only start from the ground up as an assistant. Compared with the achievements and status of the young man with a clear smile in front of him, it could be said that there was a huge difference.

Zhang He had always cherished talents and treated his assistant like his own son. He would not be biased or disdainful of young researchers. But when he saw Jiang Chen clearly, his heart, which had been calm for a long time, still jumped. There was no other reason for it, he simply b could not help but sigh in his heart that there was always a sky beyond the sky.

You c an fi nd t he la te st cha pte rs at ( th e bl mu se . c o m )

“Are you the person in charge of the Changjiang Project?”

Jiang Chen paused and glanced at Shi Fengyue before nodding: “Hello.” Recalling what Shi Fengyue called him just now, he politely added: “Professor Zhang.”

Zhang He nodded, turned around and walked towards Jiang Chen. The elevator door also happened to open at this time. He walked in and began to briefly describe the situation of H0001.
