Genius Club

Chapter 48: Chapter 48 Safe Box

Lin Xian’s words.

They were like a crowbar flipping a table, making everyone in the room unable to sit still.

A Vice President hurriedly stood up:

“Lin Xian, is what you’re saying true?”

Lin Xian nodded.

The Vice President quickly trotted over, cradling the document bag in both hands, then carefully opened it and took out the Exclusive Authorization Document.

“This is indeed Professor Xu Yun’s own signature… It’s real!”

The Vice President excitedly examined the content of the authorization document.

Indeed, Xu Yun had granted all rights and interests of the chemical compound to Lin Xian, unconditionally. Lin Xian was to make all decisions concerning the compound, with Xu Yun’s own signature concluding the document.

The smile on the Vice President’s face froze instantly.

He stared at Lin Xian in shock:

“Lin… Lin Xian, this Exclusive Authorization Document is granted to you personally, with all rights and benefits in your hands!”

“Yeah, after all, this is just a draft authorization document.”

Lin Xian had already thought about how to explain. He didn’t want to go into too much detail with everyone:

“Professor Xu Yun has been very busy recently and hasn’t had the time to deal with these matters, so he entrusted everything to me.”

…

Lin Xian’s words sent the morale in the meeting room soaring!

Everyone praised Lin Xian for his abilities! For his capability!

He managed to secure Professor Xu Yun on his own!

He saved MX Company in a time of crisis!

“That’s too much, everyone exaggerates.”

Lin Xian smiled as he dealt with the enthusiasm of the section heads and Vice Presidents, claiming he really hadn’t done much.

But to everyone else, that was just Lin Xian being modest and courteous, and the shouts and applause in the meeting room lasted a long time.

Meanwhile, the head of the R&D department was focused on the thick pile of research materials and experimental data.

He studied them for a long time until a layer of mist formed on his glasses:

“Yes, President Zhao, this material details the preparation process of the chemical compound and its precautions… It can perfectly integrate with our preliminary work.”

“The previous approvals, permits, and filings can all continue to be used, and we will definitely make it in time for the scheduled press conference.”

In just a few minutes.

The atmosphere in the meeting room completed a 180-degree turn.

The pent-up energy in everyone’s hearts finally burst forth, with all longing to return to work immediately to make up for the time lost.

The morale was higher than ever, with MX Company returning to its initial unified spirit.

Unstoppable.

…

“This is all thanks to you, Lin Xian.”

22nd floor.

Zhao Yingjun’s office.

She sat in her office chair looking at Lin Xian:

“Not only did you help the company solve a big problem with Professor Xu Yun, but you also helped me out of a big trouble.”

“I am really grateful to you for helping me out.”

Lin Xian shook his head:

“I really didn’t do much, I can only say that Professor Xu Yun values the teacher-student relationship more, and trusts me a bit more.”

Zhao Yingjun smiled:

“I just confirmed with Professor Xu Yun over the phone. What he said is completely different from what you conveyed on his behalf during the morning meeting…”

Just as Lin Xian was about to explain something, Zhao Yingjun interrupted him with a gesture:

“Professor Xu Yun specifically instructed me not to inquire too much into the matter between you two. You don’t need to explain anything to me, Lin Xian. I’m not one for gossip or curiosity.”

“I called you here, also in line with Professor Xu Yun’s wishes, to sign a formal business authorization contract with you.”

“Of course, whether you want to grant the authorization to MX Company or even grant it to other companies in the future, those rights are all in your hands. You have absolute ownership of this chemical compound.”

“But in return, MX Company will pay the authorization fee in full and will also pay you a monthly sales commission.”

Zhao Yingjun took out a contract, turned it around, and pointed to the place for the signature:

“If you’re sure there’s no problem, just sign here. Once you’ve signed… this contract will be officially effective.”

Lin Xian looked over the contract.

There were no problems.

He signed at the designated spot.

Zhao Yingjun watched Lin Xian:

“What are your plans for the future? Are you going to establish a specialized authorization company, or are you planning to retire and enjoy life?”

“Actually, I haven’t really planned anything…”

Lin Xian answered truthfully:

“I quite like my current job designing the Rhein Cat, I’ve grown attached to this cat.”

“If you don’t mind, I’d like to continue working in this team leader position.”

Zhao Yingjun smiled:

“That’s certainly no problem, but… there might be some slight adjustments later on.”

“You’ve contributed so much to the company, and you’ve helped me so much personally and professionally, I can’t possibly show no appreciation.”

Click.

After Lin Xian signed both copies of the contract, he put the cap back on the pen.

Zhao Yingjun stamped both copies of the contract and handed one of them back to Lin Xian:

“Do you have a safe in your office?”

“No,” Lin Xian shook his head.

He had only seen safes in the finance team leader’s office and the Vice President’s office.

“I’ll have the logistics department set one up for you.”

Zhao Yingjun began to dial an internal phone number:

“Lin Xian, make sure to lock these documents, contracts, and the Exclusive Authorization Document in the safe. It would be quite troublesome if they were lost.”

“There’s nothing else, you can go back to your work now.”

Bang!

Lin Xian walked out of Zhao Yingjun’s office, and the heavy password-protected door behind him slammed shut.

He let out a breath…

He had no idea when he would get another chance to see that invitation.

This was also a reason he wanted to stay at the company.

If he really resigned and left, he might never find a clue to access the Genius Club for the rest of his life.

…

Two days later, in the afternoon.

The employees from the safe company knocked on the door and greeted:

“Good afternoon, Mr. Lin.”

Then, they carried a steel safe over a meter tall into Lin Xian’s office.

One of the employees handed over a set of keys:

“Mr. Lin, this safe has a dual-security structure with both a key and a combination lock. You must first turn the mechanical dial to enter the combination, and then use the key to open it. It has a very high security coefficient.”

Lin Xian crouched down and looked at the two overlapping dials on the safe, thinking of the one in the dream bank warehouse… the one marked with his name.

“What if I lose my key, or forget the password?” Lin Xian asked curiously.

The employee chuckled:

“Mr. Lin, if you lose the key, you might still be able to call a very professional locksmith to open the lock. But… if you forget the password, then I’m afraid the safe won’t open at all.”

“This safe is different from the usual safes. Its design is extremely intricate… there’s practically no chance of cracking the password.”

Lin Xian stood up and patted the body of the safe.

There was a dull thud.

It seemed to be made of solid stamped steel, very robust:

“But what if?”@@novelbin@@

Lin Xian stared at the employee:

“What if I accidentally forget the password, but the contents of the safe are extremely important, how would I get them out?”

“Is there any way to open a safe if the password is forgotten?”

The employee scratched his head in frustration:

“If I have to say…”

“There is indeed one last method!”
