The passionate years starting from the college entrance examination

Chapter 205, The Knife on New Year’s Eve (please vote for me)

February 14, 1961, Chen's house in Cuihua Hutong, Beijing.

"Brother, are you ready? We are going out for shopping."

Not long after having dinner in the morning, Chen Guohua and his family agreed to go shopping in a department store.

So Chen Guohua and Yu Moli went back to the room to add some clothes to the little guy.

At this time slot, Chen Xiaomin and the others were already urging them.

"It's coming, it's coming, don't rush me."

Following Chen Guohua's voice, the couple also came out.

At this time, Chen Guohua was wearing a black tunic suit, looking very handsome and energetic.

It is not working time now, so it is rare for Chen Guohua to change into other clothes.

On weekdays, Chen Guohua seems to only wear one set of clothes, which is military uniform.

Zhenhua Research Institute orders its clothes from the Second National Cotton Factory simply because they are self-reliant and do not need to get these clothes from above.

The entire institute has uniform military uniforms, without distinction.

If there is a difference, it would be that the epaulettes are different.

There is also a need to distinguish between researchers, cooks, logistics personnel, security department staff, medical personnel, etc., each of which will be different.

For example, a cook will definitely wear a white cooking suit with an apron on the front.

Another example is the medical staff. They wear white coats to distinguish themselves from other people.

If you are in the security department, you will wear a military hat to distinguish yourself from others.

In fact, there is no need to distinguish the group of people from the security department, just because there are more than a hundred of them, and there are more than ten female security department employees, and they are much taller than ordinary people.

Except for Yin Menglun, a 2-meter tall man, none of the other male comrades in the security department are less than 1.8 meters tall, and no female comrades are less than 1.7 meters tall.

And their aura is also very different from other researchers.

Therefore, the cloth strips on the arms are actually dispensable.

"Guohua, you are really handsome. You make me feel like I'm seeing a big brother every time."

At the door, Chen Guiying said happily.

Just her words made Hu Pinggu couldn't help but sigh.

Similar to Chen Guiying, every time Hu Pinggu saw Chen Guohua, she always felt like she was seeing her man.

Later, after spending time together every day for a long time, we finally differentiated.

Chen Guozhen is a soldier, and his temperament is very different from Chen Guohua's scholar temperament.

Although the two brothers look almost the same, they can still be distinguished over time.

Relatively speaking, Chen Guiying's time with Chen Guohua was short, so she always misunderstood like this.

Back then, when Chen Guozhen was still there, he took his younger brothers and sisters to play.

Therefore, Chen Guiying admired her eldest brother very much, and he was also the one who cried the most after Chen Guozhen died on the battlefield.

"Let's go, let's go, it will be crowded soon"

Yun Wanchang had already noticed something was wrong, and urged Chen Guohua before he spoke.

The family walked out of the house with a smile. Long Kanghou and Yan Shouchun were already waiting outside.

However, today the two of them were just following, not driving.

It's very close to the department store from Cuihua Hutong, just walk there.

Today is New Year’s Eve, New Year’s Eve.

Just because there is no thirty this year, the twenty-nine is New Year’s Eve.

In late January, Zhenhua Research Institute had developed a medical accelerator, and then contacted doctors from the People's Liberation Army General Hospital to come to the laboratory to jointly complete the clinical trial of the machine.

This process may take a long time, but Chen Guohua said that if death row prisoners are used, this time can actually be shortened.

Moreover, the current situation is that Zhenhua Research Institute has received 10 million yuan, so it is not short of money at present.

Therefore, a lot of manpower has been allocated to the medical accelerator project. Currently, there are not many researchers to assist doctors in completing clinical trials.

After all, Chen Guohua will not invest so much time and energy in the products that have been developed.

Instead, it should be invested in research work at the levels of memory, optical devices, generators and power transmission equipment.

As of before Chen Guohua went on holiday for the New Year, the relevant departments on Tong Jingzhi's side still had not found any clues about the rat.

Even Tong Jingzhi himself couldn't help but wonder: Could it really be an accident?

However, Chen Guohua's inference was very reasonable, and Tong Jingzhi could not find evidence to overturn it.

Therefore, now the relevant departments can only advance both sides at the same time.

Either find the evidence that overturns Chen Guohua's inference and prove that the last explosion in the kitchen was just an accident, or find clues of the rat or even uncover the rat.

However, these two points are not easy.

Therefore, Chen Guohua can only assume that there are rats in Zhenhua Research Institute.

Then cleaning up the door is the most urgent point at this moment.

Chen Guohua didn't know how long the mouse had been hiding.

Because some mice didn't just hide for a year or two, they even passed it on to their offspring, or they hid for more than ten or twenty years.

Even before they were activated, they were probably just teenagers.

Nowadays, most of the researchers in Zhenhua Research Institute are almost thirty years old, and no one is thirty years old or older.

Chen Guohua also had doubts about the old professor Chu Shenglin who had been invited to help him complete the medical accelerator.

But when he shook hands with the other party, there were no calluses on his hands.

He is soft and not a martial artist at all.

If rats were all like this, how could they not leave any clues at the scene?

To be honest, rats without a certain level of force would not dare to come to Zhenhua Research Institute.

After all, Zheng Guiping and Chen Qiufeng from before were a lesson learned from the past.

Regardless of whether there are rats or not, Chen Guohua trusts the monitoring equipment even more.

As long as there is monitoring equipment, it is absolutely impossible for those rats to escape from his grasp.

But it will undoubtedly take a long time to come up with such equipment.

However, time waits for no one. In the blink of an eye, it is already New Year’s Eve.

The door of the bustling department store was already crowded with people.

The current New Year is really full of flavor. Many people have disheveled faces, but their smiles are extraordinarily sincere and their eyes are bright.

Chen Guohua and his family followed the surging crowd and squeezed in.

Long Kanghou stood on the left side of Chen Guohua, guarding the latter.

Although Marquis Long Kang didn't understand why Chen Guohua came to such a place, it was still very dangerous after all.

But the other party is a twenty-year-old young man, and he also has a wife, children and a sister. It is normal for him to like to join in such fun.

"Brother, can I buy candied haws on a stick?"

After finally squeezing into the department store, Chen Xiaomin swallowed her saliva when she looked at the candied haws of food not far away.

"Well, we don't have tickets, so we can't buy them."

Looking at the candied haws, Chen Guohua himself was salivating.

But he also knew that if he didn't have a ticket, he would definitely not be able to buy it.

Rather than just watching, it’s better to go shopping elsewhere.

Throughout the morning, Chen Guohua and his family were shopping in the department store.

During this period, I had to change the pants of the little guy Chen Wei and breastfeed him, which was a bit troublesome.

The little guy is still very young. Whether he is hungry or has diarrhea, he will cry when he is unhappy.

As long as he doesn't cry, he is the cutest.

"Let's go. We've bought everything we need to buy. Let's go home and cook."

Lao Chen spoke with a smile, and the whole family walked out without anyone disagreeing.

However, when he came out and the crowd was at its loudest, Chen Guohua was suddenly stabbed in the chest.

He had no idea that someone would stab him in the heart at this moment.

But the moment the knife penetrated his skin and stung him, he activated the space and directly put the knife in.

As a person who is afraid of death, Chen Guohua has actually faced such a situation more than once.

So he can calm down quickly and react quickly.

Before Long Kanghou next to him could react, Chen Guohua had already put the knife away.

Therefore, Chen Guohua's injuries were not very serious.

But the 'ordinary man' Zhang Hong in front of him was horrified because the knife in his hand suddenly disappeared.

Snapped!

Chen Guohua just made a painful expression, but Long Kanghou already noticed something was wrong and immediately grabbed Zhang Hong.

In Long Kanghou's view, the Zhang Hong in front of him was also ordinary, no different from the ordinary people around him.

But now it is very obvious that Chen Guohua has been assassinated.

"catch him!"

At this moment, Chen Guohua could still feel the tingling sensation on the skin of his chest.

The knife was very sharp and he already had it in his hand.

Yu Moli, who was originally on his right, had been pushed away by Chen Guohua, allowing her to move closer to Yun Wanshang and the others.

Zhang Hong and Long Kanghou were already fighting each other in the air. When Yan Shouchun took a look, he immediately put down the New Year's goods in his hand, pulled out his gun and pointed it at Zhang Hong.

The latter moved very quickly, but Yan Shouchun was no ordinary person.

Bang!

Accompanied by the sounds of fierce fighting and gunfire, the originally turbulent crowd dispersed quite a bit, revealing a huge space.

After the gunfire sounded, Zhang Hong was also captured.

Wow!

The people watching nearby were in an uproar.

Everyone is very curious, why are people fighting? And why would someone shoot?

"Brother Guohua, are you okay?"

At this moment, Yu Moli and the others also discovered the hole in Chen Guohua's chest that was torn in his clothes. It was a really big hole.

At the same time, they also found the knife in Chen Guohua's hand.

While Long Kanghou and Yan Shouchun captured Zhang Hong, Chen Gonglu also came forward to help.

"Take him away!"

Chen Guohua waved his hand and did not let his father Chen Gonglu help him. Instead, he looked at Zhang Hong with a gloomy expression and said in a deep voice.

"Dad, you guys go back first, I have to deal with this matter."

After that, Chen Guohua left with Marquis Long Kang and others.

Zhang Hong's two arms had been removed by Long Kanghou, leaving him completely unable to use his strength. One of his legs was injured, having been shot by Yan Shouchun just now.

It can be seen that Yan Shouchun's marksmanship is very good.

Yun Wanshang, Chen Gonglu and others also quickly left the door of the department store and hurried home.

No one thought that today, which was originally a happy day, would encounter such a thing.

Yu Moli and San Xiaozhi were still a little confused and didn't understand what happened, but they all noticed that Chen Guohua was wearing a brand new and beautiful black tunic suit, and there was a gaping hole in his chest.

It was obviously a gash opened by a sharp blade.

You know, generally speaking, it is more difficult for ordinary knives to cut clothes, so tools like scissors will make it smoother.

But if you stab the clothes directly, it will be difficult for scissors to open such a large opening.

It can be seen that the knife used by the murderer is by no means an ordinary knife.

As the off-road vehicle was driving on the road, Long Kanghou rarely expressed concern for Chen Guohua. Is the injury serious? Do you want to bandage the wound first?

"No, it's probably just a scratch on the skin. I can just cover it with my clothes. My blood can condense into scab very quickly."

Chen Guohua shook his head and said in a deep voice.

At this time, he was the co-pilot, and the seats behind him were Long Kanghou and Zhang Hong.

The latter had been tightly tied up. After getting in the car, even his legs were tied up, leaving Zhang Hong no chance.

Even though Zhang Hong seemed resigned to his fate at this time, Marquis Long Kang did not relax his vigilance.

On the relevant department's side, Chen Guohua's car drove directly in.

Tong Jingzhi came over soon after hearing the news. He frowned when he saw the gash on Chen Guohua's chest and Zhang Hong who was slumped on the ground.

"Director Chen, what's wrong with you? Why didn't you bandage the wound?"

Chen Guohua did not express any concern for Tong Jingzhi.

Instead, he pointed at Zhang Hong and said:

"Director Tong, this comrade was at the door of the department store just now. He took a sharp knife and stabbed me in the chest while there were many people."

"I question and protest the work of your relevant departments, and I also ask Director Tong to give me a perfect explanation."

"Why did I suffer such a situation on New Year's Eve when I was not assassinated like this last year?"

"Director Tong, didn't you say you would 'protect' my safety? Is this how you protect me?"

Hearing Chen Guohua's words, Tong Jingzhi was completely speechless.

Good guy, if you insist on committing suicide and gather in crowded places, even if the King of Heaven comes, it will be difficult for you to survive, right?

Although Tong Jingzhi rarely goes to crowded places, he has also seen how dangerous crowded places can be.

And Chen Guohua knew that his identity was different, but he still insisted on doing this. Isn't this a stupid way to die?

Regarding this point, even Long Kanghou and Yan Shouchun had doubts.

But what they were puzzled about was Chen Guohua's reaction speed.

He was able to snatch the knife away in advance when Zhang Hong stabbed him in the chest, and the knife disappeared before Zhang Hong himself could react.

Although Long Kanghou knew that Chen Guohua was the champion of the 100-meter race at the National Games, he did not expect that Chen Guohua would react so quickly.

Simply inhuman.

Perhaps this is one of the reasons why Chen Guohua gathers in crowded places, because he relies on his quick reaction, so he feels confident.

Not to mention, Long Kanghou and the others had guessed a little bit, and this was indeed one of the reasons.

Chen Guohua loves Yu Moli very much and enjoys life with his family.

That’s why we often accompany them to places such as the Forbidden City, the Summer Palace, the Great Wall, and Majiafeng in the countryside.

In addition, he felt that he had space, so he was not afraid of assassinations at close range.

If it's a long distance, they won't be too worried if Long Kanghou and Yan Shouchun are there.

After all, the longest effective range of current sniper rifles is about four hundred meters.

And it has to be in a high-rise building, but there are no decent high-rise buildings in the capital now.

And if these snipers are able to avoid hidden buildings, then there will be even less.

Therefore, it is basically difficult for Chen Guohua to encounter such an attack.

Even though he has a fixed route to work every day, this is the capital, not other places.

It's been okay for such a long time, but I didn't expect that something would happen on New Year's Eve.

Regarding this, Chen Guohua just wanted to curse.

So he came to Tong Jingzhi immediately.

If the latter doesn't give him an explanation, then he will ask his leader.

"Are you all dead? Why don't you quickly find medical staff to help bandage Director Chen's wounds?"

Tong Jingzhi, who didn't know how to explain for a while, had no choice but to scold Long Kanghou and others.

When Chen Guohua heard this, he frowned and said:

"Director Tong, Comrade Long and Lao Yan are my people, why do you scold them?"

Is this taking some gunpowder? Endless?

Tong Jingzhi snorted coldly and ignored Chen Guohua. Instead, he ordered his own people to quickly take Zhang Hong to the interrogation room, and at the same time, he quickly asked medical staff to come over and bandage the wound.

But not long after, while Chen Guohua was still bandaging his wounds, Qiu Zongyue hurried over.

"Guohua, are you okay?"

When Qiu Zongyue received the call, he almost couldn't stand.

Because of a few words on the phone, Chen Guohua was assassinated!

For him, this was absolutely bad news like a bolt from the blue.

Today is New Year's Eve, so you can't joke like this.

So after he hung up the phone, he hurried over.

"Leader, I'm fine, but I still feel bad. Why did I get stabbed?"

Chen Guohua shook his head and said.

He was very grateful for the leader's concern, but now that he had such a good opportunity, he wanted to embarrass Tong Jingzhi no matter what.

Huh, he should pay back some of the harm the other party caused him the year before last, right?

However, Qiu Zongyue was not thinking about these at this time, but Chen Guohua's injury.

After all, the latter is the director of Zhenhua Research Institute. It is not just a director's position, but also Chen Guohua's ability.

Theoretical research ability in the field of mathematics is secondary, and more importantly, the research ability in the field of applied scientific research.

Since Chen Guohua can come up with epoch-making scientific research products such as integrated computers and medical accelerators, he can definitely come up with more. Therefore, neither Qiu Zongyue nor his superiors wanted anything to happen to Chen Guohua, not even a slight injury.

Therefore, Qiu Zongyue now has a tough attitude and insists on letting Chen Guohua go to the People's Liberation Army General Hospital for treatment.

In fact, the same goes for going to the Health Bureau, but Chen Guohua's level is much lower, so he definitely can't go to the Health Bureau.

Anyway, it's the same as going to the general hospital. After all, you can call one or two doctors from the health bureau to come over and help.

Chen Guohua was helpless. He said it was just a little skin injury, and the blood scab had already condensed, and he was bandaging the wound.

But no matter what, Qiu Zongyue's attitude was very tough, and Chen Guohua could only be pushed and taken to the general hospital by the former.

After Chen Guohua and Qiu Zongyue left, Tong Jingzhi breathed a sigh of relief.

This time, Chen Guohua was injured, which was indeed bad news for Tong Jingzhi.

Anyway, all the good mood of the day was gone.

Originally, Tong Jingzhi was a loner. New Year's Eve and other events were no different to him than usual.

But it is New Year's Eve after all, and the workplace has also posted couplets, hung up red lanterns, etc. The smell of the New Year is even stronger with the pungent smell of firecrackers.

So Tong Jingzhi's mood has certainly improved a lot.

But now it seems that he still has to deal with the matter of Chen Guohua being stabbed.

Zhang Hong, this killer, was really awesome. He dared to do it in public. Tong Jingzhi admired his courage.

Before the news has completely spread, we must seize the time to review it and find out the person behind it.

Over at the General Hospital, Chen Guohua looked at Qiu Zongyue helplessly.

"Leader, look, I've told you a long time ago that it's really just a skin injury. Why don't you believe it?"

The latter smiled and said:

"As long as you're okay, it'll be okay. As long as you're okay."

Immediately he became serious again and said:

"I said, why do you like to hang out in crowded places so much? Even if you want to accompany your wife and children, I understand, but can you not go to crowded places?"

"Boss, it's the Chinese New Year now. I only have time to buy new year's goods on New Year's Eve. Can't I go shopping?"

Chen Guohua curled his lips and said:

"Besides, no one thought they would be so arrogant."

"You!" Qiu Zongyue pointed at Chen Guohua angrily and was speechless for a long time.

But then, he gave Chen Guohua a death order and was not allowed to go to such crowded places in the future.

Of course Chen Guohua knew about this. He would definitely not go after such an encounter.

After saying this, Qiu Zongyue asked curiously how Chen Guohua snatched the knife.

After all, the incident happened suddenly, and Chen Guohua must have been in a very good mood at the time. There was a high probability that he would not have known that someone was against him.

In such a situation, it is not easy to react quickly.

"Leader, you also know that my reaction speed is actually pretty good."

Chen Guohua reluctantly explained that no one knew he had a cheating artifact like Space.

Despite this, after this time, Chen Guohua will definitely not join in the fun again.

In fact, in the past time, especially after Long Kanghou stayed by his side as a bodyguard, he still went his own way and went to crowded places.

Part of the reason is also to embarrass Tong Jingzhi.

As long as someone messes with Chen Guohua, it will be the result of Tong Jingzhi's "inadequate protection".

Doesn’t the other party claim to hate these people who surrender to the enemy and treason?

Okay, then I’ll give you a chance!

As for people who say Chen Guohua is so afraid of death, why do he still seek death like this?

Haha, with a cheating artifact like Space, Chen Guohua didn't dare to take action. Could it be that he really allowed Tong Jingzhi to bully him like that, and then he didn't even dare to take revenge?

The so-called adventure is just a skin injury.

Who dares to take to the streets with a gun if they are not wearing public uniforms?

Long Kanghou and Yan Shouchun both had guns, and they had gun licenses.

Chen Guohua also has a gun, but he does not have a gun license and cannot use it.

Since there will be no guns, there will only be knives. Chen Guohua is not afraid of knives.

As much as you come, the space can be taken away!

This is the 'response ability' he explained to Qiu Zongyue.

Therefore, Chen Guohua believed that Tong Jingzhi must have been very worried about something like this today.

After the wounds were treated at the general hospital, several more leaders came.

They all came to see Chen Guohua after hearing the news.

It means to care, but also to win people's hearts.

After all, if something like this happens, if the leader doesn't show up, there's no way he can explain it.

This is what Chen Guohua wants.

With these leaders coming, the pressure on Tong Jingzhi will be even greater.

Tong Jingzhi should now experience the pressure that Chen Guohua was under when he was taken to the relevant departments in September of the year before last.

Although Tong Jingzhi has seen a lot of strong winds and waves, such a scene is quite rare for him, right?

No matter what, Chen Guohua managed to lure out Zhang Hong with relatively few injuries today, and severely 'humiliated' Tong Jingzhi with the help of a knife, which was considered worthy of the punishment.

Once Zhang Hong is eliminated, other people who have bad thoughts about Chen Guohua will have to be more cautious.

Moreover, Chen Guohua also believes that in the next period of time, his safety factor will only soar to the highest level.

In Cuihua Hutong, as soon as Chen Guohua returned home, he was surrounded by Yu Moli, Chen Lihua and the others.

The family is worried about his safety.

Even though Chen Guohua didn't appear to be seriously injured when he left, the wound on his chest was definitely aimed at his heart.

So everyone is worried.

"Okay, okay, everyone, sit down, I'm fine."

Chen Guohua, who felt warm in his heart, smiled gently and asked everyone to sit down.

After briefly explaining the condition of his wound, he also explained the situation of the leader. As for Zhang Hong, an ordinary murderer, Chen Guohua still didn't know what the situation was.

Anyway, for Chen Guohua, this matter is over now.

The family will definitely not be able to learn more information, and even Chen Guohua feels that Tong Jingzhi will not be able to find out more behind-the-scenes information.

"As long as it's okay, it'll be okay!"

After hearing what Chen Guohua said, Yun Wanshang and others breathed a sigh of relief.

Only Chen Gonglu still looked ugly and said he wanted to ask the leader.

In this regard, Chen Guohua had no choice but to persuade his father to calm down. "Now that the leaders know about this matter, they will definitely urge the relevant departments to follow up on the matter."

"Okay, today is New Year's Eve, so I won't talk about these unhappy things."

As Chen Guohua changed the topic, everyone had no choice but to stop mentioning the matter.

In the afternoon, when Chen Guohua and Yu Moli were changing Chen Wei's pants in the room, Yu Moli suddenly said:

"Brother Guohua, we won't go to crowded places from now on."

"Also, how about you tell your boss that you will stop doing scientific research and come back to teach at Peking University?"

She was worried to death. After all, if Chen Guohua had any shortcomings, she would really become a widow.

There was already a widow in the family, and she didn't want to be a widow again.

When Chen Guohua heard her suggestion, he immediately said dumbfounded:

"This matter is not as simple as you think. My reputation abroad is definitely not small. Even if I don't do any applied science research, they will not let me continue to live if I have the chance."

Before 1958, perhaps no one would have thought of the ability of a top mathematician.

After all, mathematicians, especially mathematicians who engage in purely theoretical research, have very little influence on reality.

But in 1958, with Moscow launching the first artificial satellite in human history, everything changed.

The influence of top mathematicians on cutting-edge scientific research is really great.

Although Kennedy hopes to win over his ally in Beijing, he will still choose to kill Chen Guohua if given the chance.

Therefore, it does not mean that Chen Guohua will be fine if he just stays at Peking University and works peacefully as a mathematics professor.

Hearing Chen Guohua's words, Yu Moli's face became even more worried.

"Is there no other way?"

"Yes, I have!"

"any solution?"

Yu Moli was immediately overjoyed and said, "Brother Guohua, please hurry up."

"Kiss me and I'll tell you."

Chen Guohua's words immediately made Yu Moli glare at him shyly and said coquettishly:

"Brother Guohua, when people tell you serious things and you still make fun of me, I will ignore you."

"Haha, I'm also talking about serious things."

The couple had a bit of a quarrel, but the little guy Chen Wei quit and started crying again.

Seeing this, Chen Guohua had no choice but to coax the little kid first.

Yu Moli quickly realized that Chen Guohua probably had no other good ideas, so he had to use this method to divert her attention.

She was smart and figured it out quickly.

In this case, you really need to pay more attention in the future.

Therefore, on the third day of junior high school, Chen Guohua and his family did not go out.

On the morning of the third day of the lunar new year, Chen Guohua thought of taking Chen Xiaoyue and the others back to Majiafeng.

But he was opposed by Yu Moli.

In this regard, Chen Guohua was helpless and had to explain it to her.

After all the hard talk, Yu Moli was finally convinced.

This time, Yu Moli, mother and son Chen Wei did not follow.

However, Chen Gonglu followed and got into the car.

Because this time, two cars set off for Majiafen.

The other car was driven by Ma Mingwei, and it was a public car of Zhenhua Research Institute.

As of now, Chen Guohua is the only one who can have a car in the Zhenhua Research Institute.

In fact, Chen Guohua hopes that Xue Jinquan, Zhang Jichuan and others will grow up quickly, so that they can do more things for Chen Guohua.

As long as it can help Chen Guohua and Zhenhua Research Institute's projects, Chen Guohua will be happy to open a backdoor for them.

However, the time was still too short, and the credit they accumulated was still too little.

Mentougou area, Majiafen.

As two cars parked in front of Chen Jialiang's house, the nearby villagers all looked over in surprise.

Last year there was one car, but this year there are two cars?

Could it be that Chen Xiaoyue has also become successful?

Chen Xiaoyue is sixteen years old this year, old enough to work.

But it shouldn’t be possible so soon, right?

The villagers were surprised and quickly gathered around.

Looking at these villagers, Long Kanghou and Yan Shouchun became nervous.

They are particularly wary of unfamiliar faces.

However, Chen Guohua still reminded them, "It's nothing serious, they are all villagers, there are no strange faces."

After hearing this, Long Kanghou and the two men relaxed a little, but they were still very vigilant.

They believed in Chen Guohua's brain. After all, Chen Guohua's memory was indeed terrifying.

There were many villagers in Majiafen, but Chen Guohua could tell if there were any strangers at a glance.

Chen Guohua would of course be very wary of any unfamiliar faces.

Fortunately not.

In the 1950s and 1960s, it was very difficult for people to go to other places.

Especially those who move to Majiafen from other places, even those who come from the city or from other production teams, need a lot of supporting documents.

And after arriving, it will take a long time to be accepted by the villagers of the production team.

However, even if there were no unfamiliar faces, Long Kanghou and Yan Shouchun did not dare to relax.

After all, something happened just a few days ago, and they didn't want anything to happen again.

Chen Guohua stayed at Majiafen for most of the day, had lunch, and returned to the city at around three o'clock in the afternoon.

Chen Xiaoyue and the other three did not follow them back, but stayed here.

Time passed in the blink of an eye, and after the Spring Festival, Zhenhua Research Institute was restarted.

Chen Guohua also returned to normal work.

There was still no result from Tong Jingzhi's side, so Chen Guohua just called him every two days to say hello.

In fact, Zhang Hong had already been tortured to the point where he was no longer human.

But even so, Tong Jingzhi and the others still had no intention of letting Zhang Hong go.

Years have passed, and the people behind Zhang Hong have fled long ago. How can they still stay?

However, in fact, Zhang Hong was just a pseudonym. His family had already taken a cruise ship heading south to Hong Kong Island with 100,000 US dollars.

In the 1950s and 1960s, the reason why Hong Kong Island's economy took off so rapidly was actually because it relied on the mainland.

He made his fortune quickly by relying on the gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, etc. brought over by these people from the mainland.

For example, there are many people who come from coastal areas such as Shanghai, as well as people from Chaoshan, Baiyun City and other places. These people are either rich or good at business.

People like Zhang Hong and his family belong to the category of consumers.

Hong Kong Island, China Resources Corporation.

Liu Guanzhong received news from Beijing before the Spring Festival, so he reported the price to Patrick from IBM.

The latter was shocked when he learned that a chip cost 80,000 US dollars, and that it was sold starting at 1,000 chips.

He knew that China Resources would not let go of such an opportunity to rip off customers.

Starting from one hundred micron transistors, to fifty micron transistors, and now to today’s chips.

If IBM could produce a chip with 200 built-in transistors, why would it be so ripped off by China Resources?

Ugh!

It still hurt too much after all.

The news quickly reached North America, and Watson was also surprised when he heard the price.

However, he still called many senior executives for a meeting, especially Winkelmann, the director of the technology research and development department.

"So, judging from China Resources' quotation, we can basically conclude that the other party has mastered more advanced chip manufacturing technology."

Winkelmann talked eloquently, then frowned and said:

"But among the information we know, we only heard that they only have computers with a computing speed of 5 million. This is very unreasonable."

When Little Watson heard this, he smiled and said:

"Winkelmann, you have to know that that place is very backward. Their power generation capacity is still very backward. Without enough electricity, how can they supply the consumption of computers?"

These words suddenly made everyone suddenly realize.

Not to mention, a computer with a computing speed of 5 million consumes a terrifying amount of power.

For IBM, it may be nothing, but for mainland China, it is a bit unaffordable.

"Since they already have such R&D capabilities, our department should also be able to make breakthroughs in technology. I just don't know how their technology makes breakthroughs?"

Hearing Winkelmann's words, Little Watson and others could not help but roll their eyes at the former.

What a Fake!

Winkelmann is so shameless, and he wants to let executives like them figure out a way to acquire those technologies through off-market recruiting.

But their technology research and development department has been failing for more than a year.

Starting with the 100-micron transistor, until now, the technology department has not won a single victory.

If Winkelmann was not the technical director, if IBM did not still need the other party's technology, there would be no need for Watson to take action. Other executives would have driven the former out.

Seeing that the other party helped complete the previous Pan American Airways supercomputer with a speed of 50 million calculations, little Watson pretended not to hear what the other party said at this time.

However, issues regarding chip technology still need to be resolved.

"Watson, I think we should recruit technical personnel from outside."

"No, I think it's better to outsource directly. I believe that those garage startups or small companies, whose living environment is so harsh, will definitely be able to produce surprises that we can't imagine."

"I think it would be better to just use the money to purchase it from China Resources. Although it costs 80 million US dollars, there are a thousand chips, which is enough to assemble several supercomputers."

Many executives expressed their views.

They all represent their own interests, such as Winkelman, who supports purchasing from China Resources. Naturally, he wants to get the product directly, and then have his department perform reverse derivation.

Given IBM's rogue nature, it would be better to register the patent in advance when the time comes.

Anyway, China Resources is located on Hong Kong Island, separated by the Pacific Ocean. Even if it registers a patent, it will be beyond its reach.

Among the many patent lawsuits that IBM has fought before, it is still easy to win chip technology patents.

Therefore, Winkelmann's suggestion may seem like a loss of $80 million, but it may result in a patent.
