How can I justify myself as a Magnate if I don't indulge myself?-Chapter 552 - 254: 100 Billion and 2nm Chip Technology
"Mr. Gu, we are expected to arrive at the Beijing University New Energy Research Institute in about 10 minutes."
At this moment, Gu Heng was sitting in the back seat of the car, scrolling through TikTok...
Listening to the voice of Jiang Ruxue, who was sitting in the passenger seat reporting the journey to him, Gu Heng didn't even lift his head, just nodded slightly with indifference.
After such a long period of negotiations, the collaboration plan for new energy battery research and development was finally drawing to a close...
As Mr. Chu had said, ever since Gu Heng returned from Shanghai, the negotiations with Professor Chen Zhizhong seemed to have directly entered a smooth phase; previously difficult communication barriers were mysteriously cleared, and the cooperation project, which was originally expected to take several more months to yield results, entered the final agreement stage within just over a week, and it was very likely to be a successful negotiation...
Although Gu Heng was not sure who had given him a helping hand behind the scenes, it was a good thing after all, and without giving it much thought, he directly brought along the company's entire decision-making team to the Beijing University New Energy Research Institute for face-to-face negotiations, as a sign of respect.
Just as he was about to reach the institute, Gu Heng stumbled upon a blogger who was patriotically minded...
Normally, when he came across such bloggers, Gu Heng would simply scroll past, not interested in listening to their sugar-coated nonsense...
But today, he couldn't help but watch the video...
"It is reported that Zhuo Wei, Hua Country's top paparazzo, is suspected of extorting 47 million RMB, and a joint lawsuit has been filed by Huayi Brothers, Guangxian Media, Hong Kong Emperor Film and Television, and 21 other major companies in the entertainment circle. If the evidence is true, Zhuo Wei could face more than 15 years of maximum sentencing!
As a result, hearing the rumors, Zhuo Wei fled abroad in advance. Reliable sources have indicated that our country's police have just contacted the French authorities for his extradition back to Hua Country.
However, he is unlikely to return in the short term; it is said that Zhuo Wei has been targeted by the local French mafia, suffering crippling leg fractures and is currently receiving treatment in France. After his treatment is completed, he will be extradited back to face legal punishment!
Here, it has to be said that we are no longer in the decades of the past. Do you think fleeing abroad means escaping punishment?
The country is strong; no criminal can hide anywhere!"
Listening to the righteous script of this marketing account, Gu Heng couldn't help but chuckle...
What is meant by 'criminals have nowhere to hide'?

If it weren't for him reaching out to a certain French mafia family to handle Zhuo Wei, this guy might have continued to enjoy life abroad for who knows how many years...
But in the end, the outcome was good...
After crippling his legs, once he's healed, he still has to return to serve over 15 years in prison; Gu Heng felt he had gotten his revenge...
Then, he completely put the matter out of his mind...
...
...
Beijing University New Energy Research Institute.
It's one of the largest new energy battery industry research institutes in Hua Country...
Unlike giants such as BYD or CATL, which focus on mass-production technology, the Beijing University New Energy Research Institute specializes in cutting-edge technology.
And this research institute is intricately connected to other new energy battery manufacturers...
To put it bluntly, this place boasts the most talented technical personnel in Hua Country's new energy industry...
Arriving at the research institute, Mr. Chen Zhizhong was standing behind the entrance, waiting for someone. Gu Heng seeing this, couldn't help but be slightly startled...
Although he represented the capital...
Was his clout really to such an extent?
Mr. Chen Zhizhong is the deputy director of this research institute and a scholar of the Hua Country Academy of Sciences, an individual of the highest echelon in Hua Country's scientific community.
Let alone the fact that he had only invested 18 billion, even if the amount were doubled, Mr. Chen Zhizhong wouldn't need to feign courtesy to him, would he?
And the other executives, like Tu Lei, couldn't help but feel a slight surprise in their hearts...
They had visited the research institute no fewer than eight to ten times but had only seen Mr. Chen Zhizhong a couple of times, let alone being personally received...
Without letting Gu Heng ponder further, he hurriedly walked briskly towards Mr. Chen Zhizhong, saying respectfully, "Good day, Mr. Chen."
Mr. Chen Zhizhong looked at Gu Heng before him and smiled, nodding, "Gu, you're here? There's another meeting participant coming; since you've arrived early, let's wait together."
"Ah?"
Gu Heng was once again befuddled...
So he was being presumptuous?
Mr. Chen Zhizhong wasn't here specifically to welcome him; there was someone else to be received...
He thought so, after all, how could such a distinguished scientific researcher come out personally to welcome him?
If it were an ordinary small institute, they might show utmost courtesy after receiving an investment of 18 billion, but this was the Beijing University New Energy Research Institute; even at higher-ups were taking notice...
The annual scientific research funding was an unknown sum, and there were countless people rushing to offer money if needed; his 18 billion investment was nothing in comparison, and without the push from behind, it was very likely his money wouldn't have been spent...
A bit awkward, but Gu Heng quickly adjusted, standing by Mr. Chen's side and waiting...
Although unclear about who Mr. Chen Zhizhong was waiting for, it was certain to be someone significant; standing at the door to wait didn't seem shameful...
Suddenly...
A pure black, older model Audi sedan appeared at the entrance of the institute...
Mr. Chen Zhizhong and the staff of the research institute immediately stood up straight...
Gu Heng and the senior executives of IDE Capital also quickly took their places...
They couldn't be blamed for making a big deal out of it...
The presence of the Jingcheng AG6021 license plate demanded their attention...
In the conventional view, it was always assumed that Jingcheng's most prestigious plate would definitely be Jingcheng A00001. However, there's a common misconception regarding the Jing A00001 plate, believed to be assigned to Jingcheng's highest department. In reality, this plate is affixed to a red Ferrari 348, which is a civilian vehicle.
