Break out of the courtyard

Chapter 506: The Star Wars Project Has Just Begun

The transfer procedures for the 12 office buildings went smoothly, but the handover ceremony for the 12 buildings was a bit of a big deal. The Eagle countrymen even invited many Hong Kong businessmen and media to watch the ceremony.

Afterwards, although Zhang Heping stopped the Hong Kong media from publicizing the purchase of the building by Heping Real Estate Company, he did not stop foreign journalists from reporting the relevant news, nor did he stop the Hong Kong businessmen from spreading the news by word of mouth.

As a result, in recent days, the Renheyi community seems to have been occupied by the rich wives from the Heping Real Estate wives circle.

After they arrived in the morning, they played mahjong until late at night and refused to go home, just to find out the Zhang family's investment logic and the next investment plan.

Even the concubines of his second uncle's family who lived far away in New Island rushed back after hearing the news and asked Zhang Heping whether he wanted to buy up the real estate in Hong Kong Island.

After all, Zhang Heping's vision for real estate, stock, and gold speculation is still very accurate, and they have witnessed it with their own eyes over the years.

Just as Zhang Heping went to Macau Island to exchange money for four consecutive nights and Wei Chunqiao and his colleagues spent 4 million Hong Kong dollars in a week, the group of big-mouthed sisters-in-law of the Tang family finally discovered that the employees and family members of the Umbrella Company were buying up Hong Kong real estate stocks at the bottom, and spread the news.

The Eagle State Lao has been publicizing the purchase of a building by Heping Real Estate Company with great fanfare. Zhang Heping speculates that the Eagle State Lao is doing so to stabilize the housing prices in Hong Kong Island, or perhaps to sell the old buildings they have.

However, Hong Kong businessmen who had already speculated on buildings and hotels were not very interested in this. They just wanted to know why the Zhang family bought the building at this time and whether they knew some inside information.

However, when the news that the Umbrella Company employees were buying up the bottom of the Hong Kong Island Real Estate Company's stocks spread, both the Eagle Capital Real Estate Company and the Chinese Capital Real Estate Company became very nervous!

They were afraid that the Zhang family on the top of Taiping Mountain would suddenly take control of their company!

If there is another company reorganization, they will be completely out of power!

To this end, the hawkish people in the Hong Kong government have begun discussing the bill to restrict takeovers of listed companies.

Some real estate companies started to play dirty, launching fixed-increase share expansions and giving away dozens of shares at a time.

……

"It's all the Eagle Country guys' fault!"

Tang Wei followed Zhang Heping, accompanied by a group of technicians, carrying large and small bags, as well as several carts loaded with large wooden boxes, and walked into Kai Tak Airport.

"If the Eagles hadn't exposed the office building we bought in advance, we could have at least been able to buy stocks secretly for a week!" There was anger in Tang Wei's tone, but more of it was unwillingness.

The main thing is that this kid was so happy to buy stocks for the first time, and he bought a lot.

"You are blind!" A technician angrily shouted at the security guard who was blocking the road, "Didn't you see the big boss coming? How dare you take the big boss's things..."

Before the technician could finish his words, Tang Wei threw his handbag at him and said, "Get out of the way!"

The technician who was hit immediately picked up the handbag on the ground and ran behind Tang Wei.

"Follow the rules!" Zhang Heping walked through the security checkpoint empty-handed, with his hands outstretched, saying:

"If my family and I are held hostage, you can check us according to the system, which may save our lives, so don't worry about who is being checked."

The female security inspector who was checking Zhang Heping with a probe stick blushed and did not respond.

After Zhang Heping was swept up and down by the stick, he did not hear any buzzing sound and went straight in.

When the technicians behind saw that Zhang Heping had accepted the inspection, they hurriedly put their backpacks and handbags on the inspection conveyor belt and lined up honestly to go through security checks.

"This wooden box contains security equipment like yours. If we unpack it for inspection, it will be difficult to put it back."

Just as the technician at the back was beginning to feel anxious, he saw a male security guard waving at six male ground staff.

"Leave the wooden box to me. There are special inspection equipment in the cargo hold." The young male security guard said as he walked towards the technical manager Tang Wei, briefly asked about their flight and destination, and then took six ground staff to tow the wooden box away.

After a while, the male security guard ran into the terminal hall with a few check-in slips and handed them to Tang Wei.

On the 5th of this month, an armed police force was established in the country.

The next day, after Qingming Festival, Umbrella Company received a domestic security equipment purchase order, saying that it wanted to install one set of security equipment for the Capital Airport and the Capital Railway Station respectively, but the purchase quantity was only three sets.

Zhang Heping estimated that the extra set was taken by domestic factories to crack the technology and then produce counterfeit products.

After all, there are so many airports, train stations and bus stops in the country that it is impossible to import all of them.

Tang was responsible for delivering the equipment and guiding their installation and use.

Zhang Heping went back this time for the "Strategic Defense Plan for Anti-Ballistic Missile Defense System", also known as "Star Wars", proposed by the Taiwanese last month.

Because the country cut military research funding, Zhang Heping made several phone calls to Sha Zhixiang, repeatedly emphasizing that projects such as satellite positioning, precision guidance, and cruise missiles must not be stopped.

Then, Zhang Heping's schedule collided with Tang Wei's.

In the previous Gulf War, the European and American multinational forces, with the assistance of satellites, used hundreds of Tomahawk cruise missiles and various precision-guided weapons to severely damage the Iraqi army's command and communications, causing the Iraqi army to surrender after only 100 hours of fighting!

As for China, it was not until 07 that it officially equipped itself with domestically produced cruise missiles, nicknamed: Dongfeng Express!

As for satellite positioning, it was delayed until 18!

……

After leaving the Capital Airport, Tang Wei saw Zhang Heping get into a Hongqi car, and then he took a group of technicians and followed the Capital Airport's reception staff to a nearby guesthouse.

"Deputy Director Zhang, I have received an order to take you directly to Xiangshan for a meeting. Your food and accommodation will be provided there." The female orderly in the co-pilot seat explained the itinerary.

"Hmm!" Zhang Heping responded with his nose.

The female orderly glanced at Zhang Heping, who came empty-handed, and asked, "Deputy Director Zhang, do you need to go home to get some clothes?"

"No need!" Zhang Heping said calmly, "Just come pick me up tomorrow afternoon. The meeting over there won't last long."

The female orderly opened her mouth and wanted to say that the meeting over there had been going on for three days, but in the end, due to discipline, she did not say anything more.

"We'll come over at 3pm tomorrow afternoon and wait until 7pm. If you don't come out, we'll come over the day after tomorrow afternoon at the same time. What do you think?"

"can!"

After he finished speaking, the car fell into silence.

More than half an hour later, the car drove across Kunming Lake and into Xiangshan Park.

Led by a security guard, Zhang Heping was taken to the Xiangshan Hotel, which had just reopened, and went straight to the conference room.

"What's the point of researching small turbojet engines without a navigation system?"

"Use the military funds to research small turbojet engines and make anti-ship missiles. They are more practical than the invisible satellites in the sky!"

"Even if we successfully develop a navigation system and a small turbojet engine, it would be a waste of military spending if the missile-borne gyro inertial navigation, Doppler radar, terrain tracking correction and other technologies cannot keep up!"

There was a heated argument in the conference room, and no one paid any attention to Zhang Heping when he came in. Instead, the guard who led the way went to report to the several old men in military uniforms at the top.

"Quiet!"

The old man who was presiding over the meeting shouted, and the meeting room that accommodated one or two hundred people gradually became quiet.

Then, the old man who presided over the meeting waved to Zhang Heping at the door.

When Zhang Heping came closer, the old man asked calmly, "They said you have a way to develop satellite navigation and cruise missiles?"

Zhang Heping was stunned for a moment. He had not planned to speak at the meeting. He was going to talk to the person in charge after the meeting, spend some money to settle the matter, and then provide remote technical guidance in Shenzhen in the future.

After all, once satellite navigation was available, he could consider Wheelock’s cruise business.

However, when the time came, Zhang Heping was not afraid and asked loudly: "Who is responsible for satellite navigation?"

Zhang Heping didn't answer the old man because the other party didn't even give him a seat.

Zhang Heping, who was wearing a white T-shirt and black sweatpants, glanced at the green military uniforms in the room, frowned and asked, "Is the person in charge of cruise missile research and development here?"

The room was still quiet for a while, and no one answered, which made Zhang Heping look a little unhappy.

"Both projects have been interrupted. Why don't you tell me what to do..." Before the old man presiding over the meeting could finish his words, Zhang Heping turned around and left.

"Stop!" It was the first time the old man had encountered such a courageous young man. "You have no discipline at all. Which unit are you from?"

After he finished speaking, Zhang Heping opened the door and walked out without looking back.

What Zhang Heping didn't know was that the results of the discussion in the conference room behind him could determine whether to resume the satellite navigation and cruise missile projects to deal with the missile interception plan of the Magnesium people.

He only knew that what he said was treated as shit again!

He had communicated with Sha Zhixiang so many times before, and he had seen a lot of inquiries related to satellite, radar, and avionics technology in the technical consultation letters. He felt that China had the foundation to produce cruise missiles.

As for satellite navigation, it's even simpler.

However, he didn't know when these two projects were stopped. It was a waste of time...

Zhang Heping has a bad temper, and so do the old men in the meeting room, who are all managers.

By the time people in the conference room realized that Zhang Heping was rich and skilled, Zhang Heping had already taken a taxi called by the hotel front desk and went home.

In the evening, Mrs. Zheng rushed to No. 7 Courtyard on the north bank of Houhai to act as a peacemaker, but was told that Zhang Heping had gone to the hospital and said he was going to visit Xiehe Hospital, Xuanwu Hospital and the Third People's Hospital.

Zhang Pandi called to ask and learned that Zhang Heping was giving a lecture at the Third Hospital, so she accompanied Old Mrs. Zheng by car to go there.

When they arrived at the Third Hospital, President Xie, Director Hou of the Emergency Department, and off-duty doctors from other departments were all sitting in the MRI teaching and research section of the imaging room, listening to Zhang Heping talking about an imaging film in front of a white light board.

Old Mrs. Zheng listened for a while. Although she didn't understand the professional terms that Zhang Heping said, the group of doctors below took notes seriously, which indirectly proved that Zhang Heping's explanation was still very good.

"What I just said and what is shown on the film can only be used as a reference for routine diagnosis." Zhang Heping turned off the light on the white light board and continued:

"In actual application, we still need to combine observation, auscultation and questioning to comprehensively identify the patient's symptoms. It's getting late, I'll go home first!"

"Let's send Teacher Zhang off with warm applause!" Dean Xie led the applause, then quickly stepped forward and sent Zhang Heping out.

The old guy just glanced at the door and found Old Lady Zheng and Zhang Heping's second sister.

While seeing Zhang Heping off, he waved behind him, asking other doctors to follow quickly to show their support.

No matter what Mrs. Zheng came for, the compliments from the doctors to Zhang Heping not only made Zhang Heping proud in front of Mrs. Zheng, but also allowed Dean Xie to show up and say a few words.

Unfortunately, Mrs. Zheng just encouraged Dean Xie with a few words and left the hospital with Zhang Heping.

"Your Aunt Wang is in Yundu right now. She called me six times this afternoon, urging me to come find you." Old Mrs. Zheng smiled and said, "Shouldn't you be attending a meeting in Xiangshan today? Why are you here to give a lecture in the hospital?"

Zhang Heping glanced at his second sister Zhang Pandi who was supporting the old lady, and said in a deep voice: "The missile interception plan proposed by the head of the Magnesium country on March 3 is actually aimed at North Sudan and wants to start a new space arms race."

"Satellite navigation, cruise missiles, precision guidance, and drones will dominate future battlefields. I have mentioned them so many times before, but in the end these projects were still interrupted. Instead of wasting time attending meetings there, it is better to do something else."

Mrs. Zheng explained, "This year's military budget is low, so we put aside some projects that cannot be successfully developed in a short period of time. In addition, the people of Magnesium promised us that they can open satellite navigation to us."

Director Wang Sumei told Old Lady Zheng the whole story and wanted Zhang Heping to invest in satellite navigation and cruise missiles, but Old Lady Zheng felt that Zhang Heping had given enough and that he could not keep asking for things without giving anything in return, otherwise he would be unpopular.

Zhang Heping looked at the dim street lights in the distance and said solemnly, "The navigation system that the Magnesium people promised to give us is just like the technology I gave away for free in Hong Kong Island. They have no good intentions."

Old Madam Zheng said sternly, "Now we are focusing on economic development. We have no choice but to show weakness to the enemy in terms of military industry. Don't worry, we still have the trump card of the pride bomb."

“Forget it!” Zhang Heping looked up at the dark sky. “After I build a nuclear power plant, I will slowly develop satellite navigation and build the low-altitude Starlink. Then I can become the world’s largest communications provider!”

"Nuclear power plant..." Old Mrs. Zheng murmured, looking at Zhang Heping who walked to the car and opened the door. This was the ninth time she heard that Zhang Heping wanted to build a nuclear power plant. Can this young man really do it?

You know, the country is still looking for foreign technology. It was only last year that we contacted France's nuclear power technology through the China Light and Power Company in Hong Kong, but there has been no progress so far.

"Mr. Zheng, go back and rest early. I won't go to the meeting in Xiangshan!" Zhang Heping said with a smile, "There's not even a person in charge of satellite navigation and cruise missiles over there. Even if I invest money, I don't know where it will be used in the end."

"I'm going back to Hong Kong Island tomorrow. I have some things to do there."

Mrs. Zheng walked to the side of the car, shook hands with Zhang Heping, and said with a smile: "You are a smart child. We took a photo together when you participated in the performance of The East is Red. I believe you have a red heart."

"Big red heart with shining red stars, just relax. I am also a student of No. 11 Middle School. Although my thoughts have been corrupted a little by money, my heart will never change." Zhang Heping smiled and sent the old lady to the car.

Finally, he took his second sister Zhang Pandi and walked home.

"Second sister, have you and eldest sister decided? Which unit are you going to be transferred to?" Zhang Heping said as he walked, "There is no need to hesitate about this matter."

"If you don't want to move up, I have to find other spokespersons. Otherwise, a rich man like me will always be a cash machine in the eyes of some people!"
