Chapter 1465 Are You Interested in Space Elevators?
Following Chairman Li Guangya and his assistants out of the laboratory, Lu Zhou was thinking about whether to propose to sit in his home for a while, when he suddenly saw a slightly fat man walking towards them.
Seeing Lu Zhou, the chubby man's eyes widened slightly, a bright smile immediately appeared on his face, and he walked straight towards them.
"Hello, are you Academician Lu?"
Staring at this face for a while, Lu Zhou thought for a while but couldn't remember where he had seen him before, so he said.
"It's me, may I ask you..."
"This is Morinaga Moto, this is my business card!"
Realizing that he had not mistaken the person, Morinaga immediately handed out the electronic business card in his hand respectfully.
Seeing all this in front of his eyes, Li Guangya, who was standing aside, stared at Morinaga Yuan for a while, and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Noticing Chairman Li's gaze, Morinaga seemed to have guessed something, an imperceptible flash of surprise flashed across his face, and then he said with a kind smile.
"Chairman Li? What a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here."
"I didn't expect to meet you here, Manager Sen," Li Guangya continued, "What brought you here to Jinling University."
"You are joking, our group has many investment projects in Jinling University, even if it is not for the respected Academician Lu, I will come here from time to time," Morinaga continued with a smile, "If it is you, the official business will not be very busy?"
Seeing that this guy admitted without any concealment that he came to Lu Zhou, the expression on Li Guangya's face gradually sank.
"I'm here for official business, so don't worry about it."
While the two were communicating, Lu Zhou was watching them with interest.
I don't know if there is any grievance between them, I always feel that Li Guangya seems to be annoyed by this surname Sen, but there is not much to do with him. And that person surnamed Sen didn't quite deal with Li Guangya's appearance, but he didn't dare to show this feeling too obviously, and even had to be kind on the surface... It seemed that he was a little afraid of him?
"...It seems that your official business is probably related to Academician Lu."
Hearing Morinaga Yuan's pointed ridicule, Li Guangya didn't speak, but his expression became more and more impatient.
Sensitively noticing this, the man surnamed Sen quickly stopped talking, smiled and continued.
"It seems that Sen came here at a bad time today. Since Academician Lu and Chairman Li still have something to discuss, I'll come to disturb you another day."
Having said that, he suddenly looked at Lu Zhou who was standing aside.
As if thinking of something, Morinaga Moto thought for a moment, and then added later, "... By the way, I have to remind you about something."
Lu Zhou: "What is it?"
"Be careful with a man named Liu Zhengxing."
Liu Zhengxing?
Lu Zhou frowned slightly.
"who?"
"The chairman of East Asia Electric Power," Morinaga continued with a smile, "he is a very capable person, but sometimes the more capable a person is, the easier it is for him to be overwhelmed by his arrogance when it comes to personal choice questions." Made the wrong choice."
"Of course, I just said it casually, how to decide is up to you."
Glancing at the expressionless Chairman Li Guangya indiscriminately, Morinaga smiled kindly again, left a sentence of "See you next time", then turned and left.
Putting the holographic business card on the holographic bracelet on his left wrist, Lu Zhou imported his identity information and contact information into the address book, and casually glanced at the contents above.
【Moronaga Morinaga, Investment Manager of SoftBank Group】
interesting?
Withdrawing his gaze from the holographic screen, Lu Zhou glanced at Chairman Li Guangya who was standing beside him.
He didn't know that it was his own illusion, but he always felt that Li Guangya's expression, he would rather that person said "there will be no future" when he left.
"How does Softbank have a stake in East Asia Power?"
Hearing Lu Zhou's question, Li Guangya restrained the displeasure on his face a little, and after thinking for a moment, he spoke in a calm tone.
"...About the 1960s, when cross-regional power grids entered Japan, East Asia Electric Power acquired a number of Japanese power companies, including Djing Electric Power Company, through means of financing and mergers and acquisitions, and formally entered the Japanese energy industry."
"Softbank Group probably joined the board of directors of East Asia Electric Power at that time. I don't remember the details clearly. I only remember reading a short paragraph in a book."
"In modern history, when East Asian electric power is expanding, basically every region it visits will absorb a certain proportion of local capital into the board of directors to reduce the resistance to promoting cross-regional power grids."
"If you are interested, you should be able to find relevant literature in the library."
Lu Zhou: "In other words, East Asia Electric Power is now like a big pot with hundreds of mouths around it."
Li Guangya: "It can be understood in this way."
"I see," Lu Zhou nodded thoughtfully, and muttered to himself, "... No wonder so many people came to lick me with only 7% of the shares."
At the beginning of the 21st century, when East Asia Electric Power was first established, the stock held by Xingkong Technology was paid dividends, and it was a symbolic vote on the board of directors. Unexpectedly, after this century passed, 7% of the shares instantly became a huge sum of money.
Just when Lu Zhou was feeling emotional about his personal fate and the progress of history, Li Guangya who heard his words next to him almost didn't choke on his spit.
What the hell?
Why call it licking! ?
Although he guessed that Lu Zhou was probably referring to Morinaga Yuan, Li Guangya felt awkward when he thought that he would ask him next, and hesitated for a while whether he should say the next words.
Noticing the unnatural expression on his face, Lu Zhou finished his emotion and gave him a strange look.
"What’s wrong with you?"
"It's nothing..." Restraining the urge to hit someone, Li Guangya took a deep breath and squeezed out a polite smile on his face, "It seems that Academician Lu has realized that he has now become a favorite in the eyes of the East Asia Electric Power Board of Directors." cake."
Lu Zhou laughed and said.
"Sweet and sweet? I think it's a thorn in my side."
"Everything has two sides. The cake in the eyes of some people can also be the poison in the eyes of others." Li Guangya did not answer this question directly, but gave a noncommittal smile, and then continued, "In fact, after so many years The growth rate of East Asian power has exceeded everyone's expectations. And it has expanded to this point, and its future is beyond our expectations."
Lu Zhou: "I'm more afraid of trouble, so you better not go around in circles."
"I didn't go around in circles," Li Guangya continued looking at Lu Zhou, "East Asia Power's board of directors has always had great differences on certain issues, whether it is in specific businesses or in the general development route. For example, as a giant enterprise with both social and business attributes, East Asia Power should give priority to economic effects or social benefits. If both are considered, how should we find the balance between the two.”
Lu Zhou laughed and said, "Are you rich to this extent now?"
"It's not us who are rich, but you," Li Guangya said softly, "You may not understand what kind of huge sum of money you have in your hands, and what it means."
"When a company's market value exceeds the GDP of most countries in the entire region, and every decision it makes is closely related to the economy and prosperity of the entire region, its significance itself has surpassed the concept of traditional companies."
"7% may not be a very large number, but in the hands of special people, it may play an unexpected role."
"Some people have taken a fancy to this, and hope to achieve their goals by wooing you... For example, I am just making an assumption that the three giants of East Asia Electric Power, East Asia Heavy Industries, and East Asia Communications will merge and integrate their respective Advantageous resources, to establish a giant spanning the energy, industry and information fields."
When saying this, Li Guangya has been observing the expression on Lu Zhou's face, trying to see something.
However, to his disappointment, whether it was an expression of surprise, emotion, or disinterest, he didn't see a single bit of that face.
Just when he was beginning to be a little uncertain about whether he had conveyed his meaning to Lu Zhou correctly, Lu Zhou suddenly spoke.
"I'm not interested in what you're saying."
"Even if you set up a giant enterprise across the whole field, there is no way to help me solve the things that interest me faster. If you are just trying to test me, don't waste my time."
Hearing these words, Li Guangya finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the stone that was resting on his heart was finally placed on the ground.
When he just received the call from the AIIB, he was so anxious that he couldn't even sleep well.
Although there is no guarantee that Lu Zhou will still think the same way in the future, at least at this stage, this scholar from the 21st century is not as difficult to communicate as he imagined.
"Thank you for your understanding of our work."
"Actually... besides this matter, I have another important matter that I would like to discuss with you when I come to Jinling this time."
This guy……
Can't you finish all these things at once last night?
He didn't know that it was the stocks in his hands that made him temporarily change his mind. Looking at the solemn expression on Chairman Li Guangya's face, Lu Zhou sighed and said.
"If it's troublesome, I suggest you go trouble someone else."
Li Guangya smiled sheepishly and said, "Trouble may be a bit troublesome, but I feel...it should be quite interesting. Do you really want to hear it?"
Lu Zhou: "You say."
"We plan to build a transport track extending from the synchronous orbit to the surface to achieve rapid transportation from the surface to the space—the so-called space elevator," Li Guangya smiled as he watched Lu Zhou with a gradually surprised expression on his face. He smiled and continued, "I don't know if this project can arouse your interest?"

(I spent a lot of time with my family during the Spring Festival yesterday. I only wrote one chapter. I’m really sorry... I hope this virus can pass soon. To be honest, I still feel a little panicked when I stay here. The more I watch the news, the more anxious I feel. Sometimes I want to It would be nice if I didn't go back after the annual meeting.
