don't talk to aliens

"Subspecies are the lowest category level currently recognized by the biological world. Domestic dogs and gray wolves are two subspecies of the same creature."

"In the traditional definition of biology, humans are the only natural creatures that do not have any subspecies."

"However, a hundred years ago, some people also proposed a conjecture that maybe the subspecies of human beings were born one billion years ago, and then one day, they disappeared collectively on the earth overnight."

"Dudu-"

Fu's, Longjiang Building.

4: 30PM

Accompanied by the sound of several horns, a luxury car steadily drove over from the opposite side of the office building in front of him and parked on the opposite side of the road.

The front window was pulled down, vaguely revealing Fu Bailong who was sitting in the back seat with a cold face, a bouquet of hand flowers and a high-grade gift placed beside him.

He's dressed fairly formally today.

Because it was a relatively private date for two, he deliberately changed into a formal attire that best suited his status.

As an aristocrat with a prominent family background, in the past, he rarely went out for dinner or dates alone with women who he had no interest in.

But that Miss Zhang's father repeatedly asked them to get closer, and Fu Bailong, who hadn't planned to formally turn his back on all this, temporarily compromised.

"Mr. Fu, as far as I know, there has been a lot of activity in Zhang's side this month. The biological company they have invested in abroad for so many years has been developing well. In the past two years, they have also enjoyed a good reputation in the world. We are old friends with them. And Ms. Zhang, as his only daughter, more or less determines the future cooperative relationship between our two families. You should probably do something in your mind. I know that you are not a person who is willing to betray your feelings easily. I don't want to be shaken, but sometimes there are some things that really can't be taken too seriously..."

Before coming, his secretary Rachel Zhang talked earnestly in his ear for a long time, and also prepared him a flower gift for the girl in advance, and asked him to be a little more polite to others this time.

This is the second time she has personally mentioned the possibility of marriage between Fu Shi and Zhang Shi.

In normal times, Fu Bailong might not choose to compromise or listen to anyone's advice like today, but this time, I have to say that he will choose to compromise, and there are reasons for it.

Because he had an appointment with Zhang Qianjin last time in the afternoon, after finishing the chores at home in the morning, he asked the driver to pick him up and go to the company.

As we all know, he is currently the sole heir and equity holder of Fu Shi.

Therefore, in the company's board of directors with a large number of external members, he has always enjoyed the highest voice and decision-making power in all affairs.

Usually, when the company has something to hold, he, as the boss, does not want to show his face in front of the employees, so he usually attends every meeting in person.

But Rachel Zhang and the people below will also send the company's quarterly financial statements to his home on time for him to review.

For a long time, the outside world's impression of him has been more based on his many traits.

As for what kind of person he is, few people try to understand him.

However, because this meeting itself will also involve the specific new energy biotechnology that the company will focus on this quarter, so this is an early morning meeting, and he is rarely absent.

In the early morning, I heard that he actually drove here in person. The company went up and down, and the working atmosphere, which was still as usual, suddenly became tense.

Some small employees who had heard his name for a long time even hid in their workplaces and did not dare to move. They almost pasted a note on their foreheads to express their fear of this "big boss" engraved in their souls.

"Hey, listen everyone, have you heard that our 'big boss' is here today..."

"Oh my god! Did I hear you right? That, the legendary devil boss? He actually came here in person... what day is today! I, I must work hard today, and I must not be lazy ..."

Mr. Fu himself knows a little bit about what these underlings are saying about him.

In fact, when he changed his clothes and came to the company early in the morning, he didn't have much free time to pay attention to what the employees under him thought of him, except for taking turns to hold so many meetings like rushing to the market.

At the meeting, several of his subordinates took turns to publish some of the company's next-stage cooperation plans, including project investment issues, financial issues, and the release schedule of various new technology patents.

Among them, the Longjiang New Energy Project, which he had prepared for a long time before, is naturally the top priority.

During the meeting, the person in charge of the project generally mentioned three general directions of energy development in the past—namely, wind energy, electric energy, and solar energy.

These are the three known energy fields that can be touched by today's scientific and technological circles, and they are also a part of Fu Bailong's own research on maximizing energy utilization and reducing pollution.

At the beginning, he single-handedly created the man-machine integrated combat machine - "Dragon".

It is a high-tech humanoid combat machine built on the theoretical basis of this new energy cycle supply system.

Over the years, Fu Bailong has secretly kept it by his side, constantly spending money to adjust its performance step by step, and also hopes that one day he can use the functions of this new technology product in real life.

However, this kind of new energy development project needs to be maintained by him alone, and it definitely needs more financial support from the outside world.

And since this is mentioned, one has to mention Zhang who has appeared several times before and has a cooperative relationship with him.

It is said that in the early 80s and [-]s, Longjiang City had always been a heavy industrial city enjoying a high reputation throughout the country.

Under the premise that the local geological resources are relatively special, there was a time when the oil field in the suburb of Longjiang City was discovered and fully developed by the country overnight, and the local economic and trade development has been at the forefront of the country for more than ten years.

Coincidentally, oil fields, mines, and these energy sources buried underground were extremely needed for countries that were preparing military weapons in various parts of the Northwest at that time.

Therefore, in response to the needs of the times and the country, the young people of that era devoted themselves to scientific research and development personnel, and the creation of aircraft, missiles, and aircraft carriers has become the hope of the people of the whole country.

Because of this, many Chinese people in ordinary positions not only sensed the changing atmosphere of the times, but also devoted themselves to supporting the country's heavy industry, and invested in the oilfield mining business in Longjiang City in the early days.

Before Fu Bailong's father, Fu Kun, became a famous businessman, he was also an entrepreneur who went to sea to engage in oil field development in that special era.

But in the 90s, due to some unknown and mysterious reasons, the state suddenly began to seriously control the output of oil fields.

Of course, the reason given was that due to the consideration of the coastal environment, the exploitation of oil wells became more and more difficult, so in this complex environment, Fu Kun and his wife began to turn to ordinary business investment.

At that time, many people could not understand, and there were even rumors that the suburban oil field, one of the main industries of Longjiang City, was finally stopped because of the depletion of oil.

But in winter, some workers who went down the well dug out strange luminous objects from the Zeng oil field, and it could make people grow three heads and six arms overnight.

At the same time, from 1978 to 1994, some people even witnessed a "dragon boat" with lights in the sky trying to approach the Longjiang oil field.

This extremely strange 'rumor' did not stop until the Longjiang Oilfield was fully developed in recent years.

Nowadays, there are some ordinary suburban houses that have been demolished and rebuilt on the top, and it doesn't seem like anything strange happened.

As the developer of Longjiang Oilfield, Fu Bailong's parents also attracted a large number of partners after joining the financial business.

Among them, the current person in charge of the Zhang family, Fu Bailong, who should be called Shibo in name—Mr. Zhang Shichao, was the partner who first opened a financial company with his parents.

This Zhang Shichao and Zhang Dong have maintained a continuous cooperative relationship with the Fu family for many years since more than 20 years ago.

He is old, treacherous and cunning, he is good at planning, and he values ​​power and money very much in his bones, and he has always been wary of Fu Bailong, a junior, who is afraid of using him more than others.

When the Fu family had an accident due to the death of the chairman and his wife in an air crash, other companies that had maintained a cooperative relationship rushed to take the opportunity to turn back when others were in distress.

Only he not only gave Fu Bailong a chance to survive and overcome difficulties.

Also at the time when he was alone and helpless in all aspects, he half-forced Fu Bailong to make a long-term cooperation agreement between the two.

This content is destined to be a 'not simple' treaty, which not only greatly limits the scope of Fu's business for a long time.

In the next ten years, Fu Bailong must maintain a 'good' cooperative relationship with Zhang's, maintain close business cooperation and communicate with each other.

Also because of the strict requirements in this contract, even if Fu Bailong is now relying on his own strength to make a comeback, he, Zhang Shibo, can still stare at him all the time, and covet little by little what should belong to his parents to leave for him. everything of.

It is also for this reason that Rachel Zhang persuaded him after witnessing his rejection of that Miss Zhang at the last ball.

After all, from a certain point of view, if nothing happened, he and that Miss Zhang should have been a "fairy couple" in the eyes of everyone.

But for many years, Fu Bailong has been resisting this matter from the bottom of his heart because of Chen Zhen's existence, and has also refused Zhang's overtures time and time again.

It's just that under the repeated blows of the past two days, he was firm on this matter, and it seems that he has become less certain.

Because only if Chen Zhen agreed to him, would he be able to give up the family business he had cared about for a long time for one person, but the appearance of Lu Yiming broke all this and disrupted all the plans in his heart.

It was also for this reason that today's private date, which he would never have agreed to in normal times, really happened.

Because I want to know that, as most people in the outside world think, choosing a marriage that can bring benefits to his family business is actually the best choice for Fu Bailong, rather than free choice.

But it was probably because the object that made him insist on maintaining the loyalty of love temporarily made him somewhat unable to face it.

The implied hints and advice in the female secretary's words were also informing and reminding him, so he couldn't say much to refute all the things in front of him.

After all, Rachel Zhang was right.

He loves Chen Zhen, but Chen Zhen doesn't love him.

He has persisted for so many years in order to get the perfect love in his mind.

Not to mention any substantive results now, but instead fell into the current embarrassing situation where there is not even a chance to speak to the other party in person.

He was blocked, irritable, full of long-standing self-doubt.

And probably because he has been asking for it for many years, he has been a bit of a dead end, and now he really chooses a blind date to try to buffer and disperse his emotional failure and frustration.

Blind date.

Thinking of this sad but extremely realistic word, Fu Bailong's expression on his face became even uglier when he had finished his morning company affairs and was on his way to a date.

The traffic on the main road outside was chaotic, and the long traffic jam caused by the rush hour also added to his heart.

Before that, he always thought that this kind of 'terrible' vocabulary full of arranged marriages would never be his turn in his life.

But now it seems that the marriage affairs of a person like him may really only be solved by this old-fashioned and backward method.

He couldn't imagine how others would think of him once they knew that a well-known 'playboy' like him was actually going on a blind date today.

But he understands that he absolutely does not want Chen Zhen or the other half whom he dislikes to have a chance to know about today's incident.

For this reason, before he finished chatting with Chen Zhen at home in the morning, he deliberately did not mention what he would do today in a somewhat concealed manner.

Even if he came out today to meet that Miss Zhang and have a blind date meal together, he also found a driver to send him off alone.

And with this inexplicable and sneaky mood, Mr. Fu, who was in a mess, didn't have any expectations for the upcoming private date.

Even looking at the incomparably exquisite flowers and gifts that were about to be used to create surprise candlelight dinners at his hand, his expression became colder and colder.

【"Bailong, I'm going to study abroad. I chose my favorite major. I hope you will continue to work hard in the future. You will definitely become a hero who protects others..."】

【"I don't want to be a hero in the eyes of others at all."】

【"Huh? Why?"】

【"Because... there's nothing good about being a hero, maybe no one can protect you at critical moments."】

Recalling the conversation between the two of them many years ago on the eve of choosing to study abroad together, Fu Bailong's eyes flashed complicated.

At that time, he didn't tell the truth to Chen Zhen, and Chen Zhen didn't get serious with him afterwards. After many years, both of them seemed to have forgotten about it, but now, facing everything in front of him, he seemed to be able to tell the truth.

"Because from the beginning to the end, you are the only hero in my heart."

"Huh? Are you talking to me, Mr. Fu?"

His sudden soliloquies startled the driver in front of him who was concentrating on driving, and turned his head around in confusion, probably because he knew that his boss had been in a bad mood recently, and the driver who had worked for him for four or five years looked quite Be a little wary.

Fu Bailong, who just blurted out the words just now, rubbed the bridge of his nose impatiently when he saw this, and closed his eyes to avoid it for a long time and replied coldly.

"No, keep driving, I didn't say anything."

After saying these words, the driver, who sensed that the aura around him was very suppressed, didn't dare to say anything.

Their car continued to move forward a little bit in the rush hour traffic, and then slowly drove towards the top business district in the other corner of the city.
