Game Development Giant

Jester looked at his grandfather's face that was gradually becoming lonely, and at the scattered meeting place with only a few people left in front of him, and he couldn't help but replay the scene just now in his mind.

His grandfather expressed his idea of ​​organizing a delegation to return to China for investment. He originally thought that he would get everyone's approval, but Jester's grandfather did not expect that except for a few of his best old friends, the rest Everyone was extremely indifferent to this.

Moreover, some people deliberately played tit-for-tat against their grandfather.

"I think we should invest in Baodao. The human resources there are just as abundant and cheap. Moreover, the economy there has been booming under the governance of Mr. Jiang over the years, and the environment is much more relaxed than there. After all, no one knows what will happen there. It won’t be capricious, and it’s too backward over there. It can’t even make things like color TVs and refrigerators by itself. I’m afraid it won’t be able to develop to the level of Baodao now in twenty years.”

The Chinese in the United States are mainly engaged in low-profit manufacturing. Over the years, they have gradually been unable to withstand the increasingly higher per capita wages in the United States. The Japanese rely on cheap labor and low prices to The products produced by themselves, whose quality is not as good as that of the United States, are spread across the entire American market.

Not only them, even those white people engaged in manufacturing can't stand this kind of invasion of Japanese products like a whale.

Therefore, changing the production location and reducing labor costs have long been considered by them.

On the surface, Treasure Island seems to be the best choice.

This proposal was supported by the vast majority of people.

Only Jester sneered, showing a look of disdain.

As a person who knows the future, he naturally knows how narrow and ignorant these short-sighted people are.

This laughter full of contempt also angered the old man who just spoke in opposition to his grandfather.

The old man was about sixty years old, with a hooked nose. He was wearing a neat and exquisite handmade suit. His white hair was meticulously combed. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose. His inverted triangular eyes shot out a sharp ray through the lenses. His dagger-like eyes looked at the sneering Jester.

"The elders are talking, but you, a junior, dare to interrupt?" A young man with oily hair and pink face next to the old man sternly scolded Jester.

Jester smiled nonchalantly and said, "I only saw a mouse criticizing a tiger with disdain, but at the same time being in awe of a tabby cat. It was funny."

The young man with oily hair and pink face was instantly choked by these words, his face turned red, his mouth was open, he glanced at the old man next to him, his throat moved, but he didn't say anything.

"Snapped!"

At this time, the old man couldn't bear Jester's explicit ridicule. He slammed the table and stood up. He shouted at Jester's grandfather with an angry face: "This is what you, Li Yaoguang, taught you." Your grandson? Are you so ignorant of your elders?"

Jester's grandfather just raised his head slightly and glanced at the old man who growled at him, and said calmly: "Zhou Yangping, I know that Wang Xiling's people have come to see you. Since you have agreed to him, why bother to come to my organization? This party? Do you really think I am so easy to get along with? And my grandson has just earned his first 100 million US dollars in his life. How many 100 million US dollars do you have now? What qualifications do you have to say something wrong with him? "

The total price of Jester's two batches of orders was US$90 million, but this was more than three months of production, plus the 900 units he had previously made, it is certainly an exaggeration to say that he earned his first US$100 million. Suspicious, but not impossible.

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of everyone sitting there changed instantly.

When they heard the name Wang Xiling, only a few people's expressions changed, because this person's identity was too special. He was the absolute confidant of Mr. Xiao Jiang, the current leader of Baodao Province, and the head of the Baodao Intelligence Bureau.

But after hearing the news that Jester had earned 100 million U.S. dollars, everyone had expressions of absolute impossibility. But then they thought of Grandpa Jester’s prestige in the Chinese circle, and they instantly turned into disbelief. A look of disbelief.

You know, most of the people sitting here now, adding up all the money they have ever earned, only a handful of them can reach 100 million US dollars.

This little kid with no hair in front of me made $100 million?

boast! ?

This is the thought in the hearts of all those sitting in the synagogue right now.

The face of the old man named Zhou Yangping changed. Although he was still extremely afraid of Jester's grandfather, he had a high prestige in the Chinese circles on the West Coast. I don't know how many Chinese who had just arrived in the United States had received his help. But he still scoffed at the idea of ​​making $100 million.

"Hmph!" Zhou Yangping snorted disdainfully, "Who doesn't know how to brag? And make 100 million US dollars?"

"The most popular arcade game "American Cube" currently on the market was made by my grandson Li Jie. Those who know will know if I am bragging." Jester's grandfather responded unceremoniously.

Not everyone here has heard of the name "American Cube", but those who have heard it all have expressions of understanding, and those who don't know have expressions of shock when asked about it.

Then the way they looked at Jester was completely different, and it even gave Jester a creepy feeling, as if he had become a delicious steak being watched by countless greedy diners.

"Yes, Director Wang's people have indeed contacted me. Have you not contacted the people over there?" Zhou Yangping's tone became gloomy. He wanted to change the previous topic that was completely unfavorable to him as soon as possible. He knew that people from the mainland over there had also contacted Jester's grandfather. For example, before this gathering, Jester's grandfather had discussed it with people from the Consulate General in Los Angeles.

"So what if we contacted you?" Grandpa Jester didn't care. His eyes suddenly became sharp and he said word by word, "I have never concealed that it is my hometown."

Zhou Yangping was even forced to not look directly at Jester's grandfather's sharp gaze. He said angrily, "Thank you for being a ** back then! Thank you for that Baoding Medal! You old immortal couldn't even All my beliefs have been betrayed!”

When Jester's grandfather heard this, he smiled disdainfully: "I earned the medal with my life. I defended my country through life and death. What do I have to do with those rats who just live an ignoble existence? Moreover, I betrayed my faith? I only regretted that I was young back then. Ignorant, mistook a jackal for a hero, went astray, and regretted it for the rest of my life."

"If you don't agree, you won't work together!" Zhou Yangping was so stupefied by Grandpa Jester's words that he couldn't utter a rebuttal for a moment. He directly left a non-threatening sentence and left the venue with his own popularity.

The rest of the people looked at each other in confusion. After a few minutes, most of them apologized to Jester's grandfather and left.

They are also not optimistic about investing in mainland China.

In the end, only a few people were left in the venue.

Grandpa Jester's face couldn't help but become lonely. His main purpose of this gathering might be in vain.

Jester took back his memory and looked around the venue. Unexpectedly, he found someone who shouldn't have stayed.

White Wolf, Zhang Lean.

His participation was surprising in the first place. After all, this was a gathering held under the pretext of cheering for the mainland delegation at the Los Angeles Olympics.

And he is a genuine Baodao native. His parents even served in the military, public and educational system of Baodao.

Grandpa Jester also noticed him, with a puzzled look in his eyes.

Zhang Lean is thirty-six years old this year. He wears a pair of black-rimmed glasses and a simple T-shirt. He looks very bookish. There is no trace that he was the chief protector of the Bamboo Union Gang when he was in Baodao.

He had been helped by Jester's grandfather when he came to the United States nine years ago. Needless to say, the letter of introduction for him to study at Stanford University came from Jester's grandfather, and he later opened a restaurant, Jester's grandfather Te's grandfather helped him a lot.

Zhang Lean saw Grandpa Jester's eyes and quickly stood up and bowed.

"Mr. Li's kindness is unforgettable to Le'an, but Le'an's status means that he cannot go to the mainland with you, Mr. Li. Le'an is also Chinese, and Le'an's hometown is also there. Le'an also wants to go back and visit. The Great Wall and Huangshan, but Le’an cannot do that, please forgive me.”

Jester's grandfather sighed. Although he was disappointed, he still understood the other party.

After all, the other party’s parents and friends are all in Treasure Island.

Zhang Le'an is well-known in the Chinese circles on the West Coast. He doesn't have much money and just runs a restaurant, but he is a generous man and has many friends. As a person from Taiwan, he has never discriminated against compatriots from mainland China. Moreover, during his studies at Stanford, he actually became sworn friends with many international students from mainland China.

In that era, those who could do this either had ulterior motives or were sincere people.

As for whether he has ulterior motives?

Jester, who comes from a later generation, naturally knows about White Wolf Zhang Lean's legendary ups and downs of life.

He later watched Zhang Le'an's interview, and it was from that program that he learned about his legendary life, and then looked up some information about the man nicknamed White Wolf. He only relied on his righteous rejection of the treasure island information. When the bureau asked him to take advantage of his good relationship with the overseas students from mainland China to instigate the demands of those overseas students, he asked Jester to say a word of persuasion.

Jester still remembers what Zhang Lean said in that interview.

"At that time, many institutions wanted to use me to work for mainland students, but they couldn't get into the circle of mainland students, but I rejected them all. I hope that these people will return to China to build China, not I hope they stay in the United States.”

"Aren't the people who changed China's destiny in history the groups of international students? The first time it was the Japanese students who eventually triggered the Revolution of 1911; the second time it was the international students who studied in the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom and the United States, which brought about revolution. This group of international students in the United States were also the last ones. The best people among hundreds of millions of people will definitely bring new things to China when they return."

Not to mention that the Taolue Group he later invested in and founded in mainland China became the largest helmet manufacturer in the world, and later formed the China Unification Promotion Party, which was the first political party in Taiwan to support the peaceful reunification of Taiwan by Taiwan and firmly support one country, two systems. .

Well, his uncle is Hou Weiyu, who was the vice president of the Central Party School, so you can know why he later became a communist.

Jester doesn't like the underworld, but the white wolf is the only one he can't hate, because in Jester's heart, the white wolf is not the underworld, but the kind of generous tragedy of the Spring and Autumn Period described by Tai Shigong in "The Biography of the Assassin" , the kind of hero who treats me as a countryman and I repay you as a countryman.

At that time, after Jester read Zhang Lean's story, he couldn't help but sigh that if he could become friends with him, then he would definitely be a person worth entrusting his life to.

Such people are too rare in this materialistic era.

How can one live without good friends and confidants? Jester suddenly had an impulse and wanted to be friends with Zhang Lean.

And the Jiangnan case is coming soon.

Jester, who fell into memories after seeing Zhang Lean, suddenly woke up. He remembered the incident that shocked the world in the second half of 1984, the Jiangnan case.

This case had a great impact and involved a wide range of people, but its greatest impact may be that it completely ended the rule of the Jiang family dynasty in Baodao, and the initiator of all this was the White Wolf Zhang Le'an.

If he hadn't involved the Second Young Master Jiang in order to save Chen Qili's life, it would be hard to predict the future of Baodao.

As for whether Baodao will be better off after leaving strongman rule?

This is a matter of opinion, just like what Zheng Zhihua sang in the classic song "Big People": "This is no longer an island ruled by strong men. Which is more important, survival or face? This is no longer an island that will be better tomorrow. Where will our 20 million compatriots go..."

Of course, for this he was also framed by others and spent ten years in prison unjustly. Even though he was a top student and got two more degrees in prison, which was a blessing in disguise...

To stop Chen Qili and the others from killing Jiang Nan?

Jester shook his head. He didn't have that much ability, and he didn't want to cause a fishy smell.

But saving Bai Lang after the Jiangnan case?

Jester carefully thought about the information about the case he had seen in his previous life, including Bai Lang's own memories - he himself talked about the framed past in the interview.

It was not the federal government that wanted to frame him, but only the New York Bureau of Investigation.

Moreover, the California Bureau of Investigation made it clear that it would not frame the case, and the Federal Drug Enforcement Administration also stated that Zhang Lean had nothing to do with drugs, but the New York Bureau of Investigation did not give up and set up a drug case, and then found someone to commit perjury, and even Zhang Lean was successfully sent to prison after deliberately tampering with his recording.

In fact, this case cannot withstand scrutiny. Even the witness publicly apologized on a TV show many years later, saying that he perjured himself under the instruction of the New York Bureau of Investigation.

Jester also wondered if Zhang Lean could be kept out of contact with Chen Qili, so that subsequent incidents would not happen.

Then he quickly rejected the idea. Chen Qili, the domineering duck, was the person Zhang Lean respected the most in his life. Zhang Lean was willing to risk his life for Chen Qili. He was not even his friend now. How could he stop him?

So he left the United States to avoid the limelight after the Jiangnan case?

Jester shook his head again. Zhang Lean was framed not because of the Jiangnan case, but because he took the initiative to release the recording that Chen Qili left for him, and implicated Mr. Jiang in it. According to Zhang Lean's character, he would definitely be involved. After Chen Qili was arrested, in order to save the life of the person he loved most, he would play the tape at all costs.

At that time, anyone who dared to stop him was his enemy.

Thinking about it, this is inevitable.

Then the only thing I could do to save him was to help him win the lawsuit that had cost him ten years of unjust imprisonment.

For Jester, who knows the inside story of this case, it may not be too difficult, especially when he has enough money to hire the most famous and best defense lawyer in the United States.

But if you haven’t done it before, no one dares to guarantee it.

Jester was thinking as he walked towards Zhang Lean.

Then he stretched out one of his hands and smiled kindly: "My name is Li Jie, my English name is Jester, Mr. Li's grandson. I have heard of your name. Can we be friends?"

Zhang Lean also smiled, stretched out his hand and shook Jester's hand: "I have also heard your name. I also like to play "American Cube" and I like to make friends even more."

After saying that, the two burst out laughing.
