Super technology leader

#80 - Danger always comes unexpectedly

Outside the Seaton Hotel, the gathered protesters did not return to the bridge openings, parks, or their homes to sleep as usual, but remained steadfast at their posts, continuously chanting slogans.

Because today was the last day of the conference, everyone would be leaving tomorrow, and they would have nowhere to protest.

Of course, being evening, they were tired, so both their slogans and spirits were not as strong as during the day.

Even their formation wasn't as organized as it had been during the day.

Only those protesters who genuinely felt that an evil meeting was being held inside were holding signs and shouting.

On the grass nearby, several men sat resting, taking the opportunity to eat their dinners.

A dry hamburger and an even drier portion of fries.

"Haa… yawn…"

A disheveled man, holding a hamburger, yawned, his eyes sleepy, looking like he hadn't had enough sleep.

"Did you hear? The people inside are eating a feast, with fresh vegetables and steak, and lobster, roast chicken, pie, cake, ice cream, they eat half and throw half away…"

Before he could finish, the person next to him who was gnawing on a hamburger started cursing.

"Damn it, these rich people only know how to waste food, shit, it's all shit."

"That's right, we eat like shit, and they're wasting such good food!"

While they were cursing, another unkempt person had finished his hamburger and fries and then picked up his water bottle to gulp down water.

After gulping down half of it, he put down the water bottle, wiped his big beard, and said, "Alright, they are rich people, we are poor people, otherwise we wouldn't be here eating free hamburgers and fries, and even getting paid."

"You guys hurry up and eat, I got some good stuff."

As he said this, he pulled his backpack over, unzipped it, and took out a hand-rolled cigarette, then deeply sniffed it under his nose.

"Inhale…"

"With this, we can also eat a feast, and even go to heaven."

The men eating hamburgers immediately threw their hamburgers away when they saw it.

Who would eat hamburgers when they have this stuff?

The first sleepy, yawning man was the quickest, throwing his hamburger away without even taking a bite, and immediately reached into his backpack.

After fumbling around, he touched a hard object, and he knew what it was by the feel, "Oh, you damn thing, you even brought a gun, the police are not far from us."

"Ha, I even brought weed, am I afraid of the police searching my backpack?"

That person had already lit it, took a deep puff, and with a look of intoxication, continued, "My gun has always been with me, it can protect my safety."

"Hahaha, you poor ghost, you don't even have ten dollars on you, who would pay attention to you."

"That's right, even those guys who rob people won't notice you."

"Damn it, where's the cigarette, why can't I find it?"

"I found it, haha, it's in the interlayer."

Several people rummaged through their backpacks, quickly found the cigarettes, and then lit them while cursing and laughing.

"Hiss… exhale… this damn thing, it's really damn good…"

"Let's go, let's get away a little, don't let the police see us."

They had just started smoking, and their minds were still clear, so they retreated to a place where the police couldn't see them.

During their previous rummaging, some things from the backpack, including the gun, were thrown out.

The others left, but the person who brought the cigarettes still had to clean up, put the things back in the backpack, and insert the gun into his belt, "Fuck, these bastards, and those rich people, I'll shoot you all sooner or later."

"Hiss, this cigarette is really strong, I'm starting to float, shit!"

………………

Inside the largest restaurant on the first floor of the Seaton Hotel, everyone had been together for two days and could be considered acquaintances, although there were barricades separating them, they were chatting happily with each other.

And over at Tang Chao's side, after everyone found out that he was a big boss, their attitude changed.

They were clearly all poor before, but suddenly you became a tycoon, how could they hang out normally?

The two teams from Tianxia were explaining Interstellar Pathfinder to the people from those two countries, the registered capital alone was one hundred million.

Oh, converted to Sakura country's money, it's 1.5 billion, converted to Hibiscus's it's over 17 billion.

"Hiss——"

"Sugoi"

They held a competition with a prize of 20 million RMB, which is almost 3 million USD as mentioned earlier, and the actual cost of holding it must have exceeded 3 million USD.

These expenses all demonstrated the strength of Interstellar Pathfinder.

Moreover, they suspected that the "Kexing Pathfinder" account was Interstellar Pathfinder's account, otherwise, those suddenly appearing rocket engine test videos, other private aerospace companies all said it wasn't them, so it could only be Interstellar Pathfinder.

It just so happened that Interstellar Pathfinder's team was here.

Ask?

No need to ask, someone will do it for them.

After learning that Tang Chao was the boss of Interstellar Pathfinder Company, Martin's interest in him grew even more, and he kept pulling him to ask questions.

And Tang Chao could also tell that this guy really understood Tianxia, and the act of toasting at each table was learned in Tianxia.

Also, this isolation and "alternative takeout" were all learned from Tianxia.

It seems that he has businesses in Tianxia, so he knows a lot more.

As they were chatting, Martin suddenly took out his phone, then opened YouTube and showed Tang Chao a video, "Tang, your participating team is called 'Kexing Lunar Landing Department', this account is called 'Kexing Pathfinder', and your company is called 'Interstellar Pathfinder', so was this video released by you guys?"

Tang Chao took a look, it was indeed his "Kexing Technology on Earth Series: Solid Propellant Chapter".

He hadn't actively announced it to the public, but generally if someone asked, he wouldn't hide it, so he nodded in confirmation.

As soon as he nodded, Martin became even happier, "Haha, that's great, on the road to breaking the monopoly of aerospace giants, we have another powerful partner!"

"Your company can come up with this kind of idea, it's really full of dreams, I'm so envious, I also like the game Kexing, but I've never built a rocket in it, I've only made some models."

"And you can build this kind of thing, which means your technology should be even higher, only when the technology is high enough to a certain level will you have the mentality to play…"

Martin babbled excitedly, while Tang Chao had a dark expression.

The other aerospace companies are doing well, and they haven't said that other aerospace companies can't develop, how is that a monopoly?

Is this guy a bit too chuunibyou?

And this age, he's past the chuunibyou period, right?

Or is it that men are always chuunibyou until they die?

Actually, if you put it that way, he's also quite chuunibyou sometimes.

Alright, it's always good to have some dreams, just treat Martin as if he's chasing a goal.

Set a higher goal, thinking about breaking the monopoly, thinking about defeating the current big aerospace companies, and then working hard towards that, at least they should be on par.

His goal is to become the navigator of human civilization, even higher.

While they were having fun here, there was a sudden "bang bang" sound outside.

And the sound of chaos.

Before Tang Chao and his group could react, those American teams had already reflexively趴down under the table.

"Fuck!"

"Danger, danger, get down."

"Notify the hotel, where's the security?"

"Call the police quickly!"

"The police are outside!"

Martin also趴down immediately.

He frantically waved at Tang Chao and his group on the ground, "Quick, quick, get down, someone is shooting outside!"

As if to confirm his words, one of the restaurant's glass walls shattered instantly!
