Village chief, your township enterprise sells laser cannons?

Chapter 42 A real old man came to the small platform!

Having made up his mind, Lin Man extended his right hand to Qin Zheng: "Professor Qin, since that's the case, let's cooperate and carve out a lucrative piece of the eel industry chain."

"The underwater vehicle you want, we can actually make it too, but we need you to provide design concepts, blueprints, and funding."

Lin Man's words and the outstretched right hand filled Qin Zheng with ecstatic joy.

What is this called?

This is what you call a surprise, this is what you call getting something for no effort at all!

What's a little money?

By investing a small amount of money to connect with this young man and the powerful figure behind him, you can definitely reap returns of tens or even hundreds of times your initial investment.

Overjoyed, Qin Zheng's face remained expressionless. He calmly extended his right hand to shake hands with the other person, about to say a few more words, when he noticed someone walking towards the booth out of the corner of his eye. He had to swallow back the words he was about to say and instead said a few other things:

"Since Secretary Lin has said so, I'll go back now and organize the observation equipment we envisioned."

"After this exhibition ends, let's sit down together and discuss this properly."

As soon as those words were spoken, Wang Ju's voice rang out from the side, but it carried a hint of fear and disbelief:

"Lin Man, you better tell me honestly, how did you make that thing?"

Lin Man first gave Qin Zheng an apologetic look, then poured Wang Ju a glass of water before trying to smooth things over:

"Add all those random elements into a beaker, turn on the electricity, and then stir it vigorously, and the stuff comes out."

After fooling Wang Ju, he quickly gestured for Lin Yongqiang and the others behind Wang Ju to sit down, and after settling the old men in, he turned to look at Wang Ju:

"What happened?"

"What happened? Heh!" Wang Ju sneered twice, downed the water in her hand in one gulp, then plopped down in a chair. Just as she was about to speak, she noticed Qin Zheng beside her and quickly shut her mouth.

Qin Zheng noticed this as well, and quickly stood up, giving Lin Man an apologetic smile. "Then, Secretary Lin, I'll take my leave first. We can talk again after this is over."

Wang Ju sat to the side, waiting until Qin Zheng left. Before anyone else noticed the booth, she pulled Lin Man to a corner and squatted down.

"Tell me honestly, is that hydrogen that exhibits metallic properties?"

"right!"

Noticing Lin Man's nonchalant attitude, Wang Ju looked exasperated: "What the hell? Do you even know how much those few pieces of metal you casually scattered could sell for?"

"Priceless! Whatever price we ask for, that's what others have to pay!"

"That's metallic hydrogen, which requires temperatures close to absolute zero and pressures of five or six hundred atmospheres to produce a metallic reaction."

"You are currently operating at normal temperature and pressure!"

"If it weren't for AI, I wouldn't have known you created something so terrifying."

"This stuff is even rarer than lunar soil. Back then, the Americans gave us a few pieces of lunar soil, and our experts published countless papers based on those few pieces."

"You just handed out so many big ones, I can't even imagine how much money you spent and how many papers you sent out."

"If you don't want these things, give them to me, and I'll use them to curry favor." Wang Ju became more and more agitated as she spoke, and her eyes, which were looking at Lin Man, slowly turned red.

Noticing this, Lin Man mentally accessed the system's inventory, found metallic hydrogen, and casually cut off a fist-sized piece. He reached into his pocket and pulled out the fist-sized piece of metallic hydrogen, which he then handed to Wang Ju.

"Here you go, take it and play with it."

As the old saying goes, "Lord Ye loved dragons but was terrified of them," and Wang Ju was in a similar state. When the piece of metallic hydrogen was actually placed in front of him, he was stunned.

Without even raising his hand, he stared straight at Lin Man: "Do you know what this thing is used for?"

No sooner had Wang Ju asked than Lin Man across from him shrugged and gave the answer he had only recently learned: "Room-temperature superconductivity for electrical wires, what else could it be?"

"And even if others want to apply it, they'll need countless devices. So, who do you think will be able to seize the initiative?"

An unexpected answer.

Wang Ju sat on the stool in a daze for a while, then raised her hands to clap.

He clapped his hands a few times, then gave Lin Man a thumbs-up, showering him with praise: "So, sir, you've been waiting for this!"

"Tell others there's a gold mine here, and then you freaking stand at the entrance selling shovels."

"What are your plans next?"

"Selling goods makes money!" Lin Man said, getting up from the stool, patting his backside as he walked past Wang Ju and headed towards the figure in a suit and tie by the counter:

"Sir, what would you like to order?"

The man in the suit didn't say a word. He simply took out a business card from his pocket, held it out with both hands, and handed it to Lin Man. After Lin Man took the card, the man turned and left without any hesitation, leaving only his back view for the people around him who were live-streaming with their phones and cameras.

Not long after the man in the suit and tie left, several more people walked over, but noticing the surrounding cameras, they quickly turned and left.

Lin Man noticed this and turned his gaze back to the people next to him who were live-streaming on their phones.

With these big brothers around, apart from that hothead in the suit, no one else should come looking for me. Even if they do, they'll wait until night, until it's late and quiet.

Having figured this out, he turned around, opened the door of the old man's car, plopped down inside, and began to examine the business card.

It's a very simple business card: a name and a phone number.

Lucius Edner

Phone number: 131...

Lin Man stuffed the business card into his pocket, then readily took out his phone, opened Douyin (TikTok), and started a live stream.

If someone else is livestreaming him, then he'll livestream them livestreaming him!

He was in a good mood, Wang Ju was in a good mood, and Lin Yongqiang and the others were in an even better mood.

However, Yu Yang, the manager of the organizing company, was not in a good mood.

He is the company's general manager, a typical person who is in charge of both safety and production.

The phrase "safety in production is taken into full account" means that if the company has safety issues or operational problems, he is the one who will be held accountable.

He put down the documents in front of him, stared at the head of the business department opposite him, and asked, word by word:

"You mean, the person in charge of booth number 134 casually took a piece of metal out of his pocket, cut it into pieces, and distributed it to the visitors, so that they could take the metal to the booths selling testing equipment for testing."

"The test results show that the metal is composed of hydrogen."

"Right?"

"That's right!" Across the desk, the head of the sales department, who was bent over, nodded, then slowly raised his head:

"Manager, we all misjudged him. The young master at booth 134 is no ordinary young master!"

"He's a real old man!"

"If such cutting-edge technology were leaked, especially if it were leaked from us, we would be finished."

"The firecrackers from May 5.8th will likely continue until at least next month."
