Bab 9: Meeting Big Shot
Jiang Hao did not know all these things. Not that he'd care.
He had handed everything to Mia after coming up with a rough outline and started moving from place to place looking for ways to better use his ability.
This was something that he had come to know after messing around with the ability for a while.
Let's take a phone as an example. Overall enhancement +2 would give the phone extraordinary hardware and software.
That was already overpowered, but what if he focused the enhancement solely on the battery? What about the processor and memory?
And what if he took his enhanced phone and started working on targeted enhancements at this point after +6 overall enhancements?
Or would it be better to do targeted enhancements first, and then do overall enhancements?
These were all questions that Jiang Hao had to think about, but he was not in a hurry to do it at home. Let alone do it to his phone.
The phone was good, too good in fact, that these experiments would be wasted on it.
Mia had also become too powerful to the point that Jiang Hao felt uncomfortable giving her any more enhancements.
She did not need it.
After a week of experiencing the system, it was time to get down to serious business.
Today he was meeting with the first representative.
…
Yang Zhao sat nervously as he waited for the 'supervisor' from Ouroboros.
It could not be helped.
It was already an established fact that the company is strong beyond measure, but it was one thing to hear about it, and another to come into contact with it.
Yang Zhao was scared.
A company that could directly post data from Area 51 without care for Eagle Country was not something that a small businessman like him could deal with.
But what could he do?
He had been chosen as a representative and the position came with insane perks, but he now felt like it was not as fragrant.
Yang Zhao took a bottle of heart pills and popped a few to calm his heart. He was not young anymore and it would be awkward and disrespectful if he had to be rushed to hospital before they even met.
At that time, his little construction company might not be able to withstand the backlash.
Right at the appointed time, the door to the room opened and a young man with casual wear walked in calmly like he owned the place.
Were it not for his outstanding temperament, you'd think he was just more handsome than most and leave it that.
But it was this exact character that made Yang Zhao even more respectful.
It was not easy keeping such a pure heart with the kind of power Ouroboros seemed to bestow upon its employees.
Just the position of external representative had given him the clout to dine with leaders he'd never get to see unless they had a project in the works that required his company's expertise.
And even at that time, they would be talking business or something related to business. At that time, he would have to humble himself and it was very uncomfortable.
But that all changed.
The change was so big that he was even given a chance to dine with the commander of the Eastern Theater after a call with Number 1. It was quite an honor.
Now that he saw that the person who could take all that away was age-mates with his grandson…
"Mr. Jiang, please. I have already ordered the restaurant's specialty and some good wine, I hope you don't mind. Please take a seat."
Yang Zhou looked quite honest and obedient as he led Jiang Hao to the main seat.
He hurriedly made some tea for Jiang Hao before making his own cup.
"Allow me to toast to Mr. Jiang."
After doing all the ceremonies he could think of, Yang Zhao finally settled down and waited for Jiang Hao to talk about why he called him over.
…
Jiang Hao looked at Yang Zhao and he could not see any traces of a successful man at all. All he could see were the licking tendencies a subordinate showed his superior.
It was quite refreshing. This affirmed his power… the system's power and gave him more confidence in the path he had chosen.
What for the country and what not?
It was still fine if the country benefitted as a 'by the way', but there was no way on earth he was going to go out of his way to do things 'for the country'.
"Mr. Yang…"
"Please call me Xiao Yang."
"Don't interrupt me."
"Yes."
Jiang Hao took a deep breath, feeling his tense heart settle for a moment.
Yang Zhao's behavior made him realize just how much power he had over others. And that is with just the power of a 'supervisor'.
One has to know that Yang Zhou is the boss of DCCC, the largest construction company in Dragon Country and the world.
They were responsible for more than half of the state-owned projects mainly because they were the only ones with enough expertise to deal with Dragon Country's complex terrain.
They constructed almost all the bridges in the country, 80+ of which hold a world record of some sort.
But such a figure was here trying to please him, a mere 'supervisor'?
Jiang Hao could not imagine what the response would be if they knew that he was the boss behind Ouroboros and not just some supervisor.
"Mr. Yang, there are a couple of things that the higher-ups need you to do, it's just that I don't know if you can do it."
"Please tell me first. Since you called me here first, it must have something to do with construction?! I dare not say we can definitely do it, but if we can't, then there is probably no one in the world who can do it."
"Good, I like this confidence.
The first thing you will have to do is acquire an extremely vast piece of land up in the Northwest deserts with a lease of 99 years. Several thousands of acres."
"Ah…"
"You can ask the others for help if it is difficult, but make sure it is as vast as Magic City at the very least."
"Mr. Jiang, even then, the government might not be willing."
"Leave that to me. Just start the processes and I will intervene when I see an obstacle you can't handle."
"Then I am relieved."
"The second task is to collect all machines available for commercial use and send them over there. It would be better if you could access some more secure and strategic machines as well.
Of course, you have to build warehouses and foundries for all these machines. They want them working at full capacity at that time.
Oh, you only have a month to do all of this."
"…"
Yang Zhao's face got uglier the more he heard these 'requests'.
So what if he moved a rail track overnight? So what if he built a hospital of more than 2000+ beds in a week?
All these things were done with the full support of the government and the labor union.
There was no way he could satisfy all these things in a month. The location was not helping either.
"Mr. Jiang…"
"I know what you are thinking, but all these problems are not problems for Ouroboros."
Yang Zhao could only nod hesitantly.
He could not imagine what a company that was supreme in the internet and software area could do to overcome these problems in the real world.
"Your third task is to build SSS-level R&D labs in all the major cities in the country. I want the one in Magic City to be done in a week and should be fully equipped. I will post a mission on the internal system for the others to help you with all this.
It should also have a complete set of production and assembly tools. As for the orientation, let's go with Robotics and Bionics. A detailed plan has already been sent to your account."
"Mr. Jiang…"
*Knock, knock. *
"The food is here. Let's eat first before sorting out all these things slowly."
