I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week

Chapter 2217: Chapter 2218: Genius

“Initially, I didn’t think much about it, but when you mentioned Ma Dehong, there might be some connection,” Caie Mitsui said.

“He is originally from Shianggang, which is the richest city in the Asia-Pacific region. If someone is working on these things, it most likely would be in Shianggang.”

Suddenly, Lin Yi’s eyes narrowed as if he had thought of something.

The Freemasons also had access to the gene serum, and it was more advanced than that of the Mitsui Group.

Hongmen was their overseas branch. Therefore, the business with the serum in the Asia-Pacific region must have been interfered with; they couldn’t possibly allow the Mitsui Group to dominate alone.

Last night, Qiu Yuluo also mentioned that Ma Dehong had been active in Shianggang for the past six months, thus making the connection even bigger.

Much started to make sense.

“Okay, I’m clear about this now. I’ll contact you if there’s anything else.”

“Sure, feel free to call me anytime.”

“Mhm.”

After hanging up with Caie Mitsui, Lin Yi pondered for a long time.

On the Shianggang side, they must know how strict China’s management of the gene serum is. Common sense said they wouldn’t easily send someone to the mainland.

Thus, the problem with Ma Dehong was significant; he likely harbored many secrets which needed thorough investigation.

Thinking this, Lin Yi called Chen Bingqiang.

The content was simple: to find a reason to transfer Ma Dehong to the Xinshan branch office, facilitating his own affairs.

After finishing the call with Chen Bingqiang, Lin Yi called Shen Tianzhuo, confirmed his location at the research institute, then drove over.

The system had rewarded him with the design of a carbon-based chip. Having this design but not using it was pointless; it was better handed over to Shen Tianzhuo.

…

Inside the research institute, Shen Tianzhuo was in front of his computer, examining the design circuitry of a three-nanometer chip.

There were several researchers standing behind him until he got off the phone and rose from his chair.

“Put aside your work for now and clean up the lab. Director Lin is coming, and it won’t do to have it all in chaos.”

Lin Yi didn’t mind such details, but Shen Tianzhuo managed these matters very well, clear about his role, so he handled many things with great propriety.

“Hurry, hurry, let’s get ready. Director Lin is coming.”

A few female researchers whispered among themselves.

“I heard Director Lin is particularly handsome; is that true?”

“Of course, it’s true. I saw Director Lin once before; not only is he handsome, but he’s also astonishingly so, so much that it would shake the heavens and move spirits, handsome without any peers, and most importantly, utterly masculine.”

The woman speaking, named Sun Ning, had short hair, giving her a somewhat sprightly look.

“Don’t overdo the flattery, okay? It’s giving me goosebumps.”

The speaker was a man wearing glasses called Fan Yong, who looked about thirty, quite young.

“I’m telling the truth; how is that flattery?”

“You said he’s good-looking, I can tolerate that, but saying he’s ‘handsome without any peers’ is a bit much.”

“That’s not an exaggeration at all; I think you’re just jealous. You’ll see how handsome he is when Director Lin arrives,” Sun Ning said.

“Okay, okay. Even if he is good-looking, what of it? We still have to deliver results.”

“You’re wrong there. Not only is Director Lin good-looking, but according to Boss Shen, Director Lin’s skills are also formidable.”

“Stop blowing smoke,” Fan Yong said,

“What we’re working on is one of the world’s top chips. If you’re not one of the top 20 engineering MDs in the country, you don’t qualify to be in our institute. Director Lin isn’t an Immortal and isn’t even thirty yet. How advanced could his skills be? At most, he might know some coding; it’s nothing to brag about.”

“I think you’re plainly jealous. You’ll see how capable he is when Director Lin arrives.”

“Whatever, I think you’re just kissing up.”

After their quiet discussion, everyone started cleaning up because obviously, they needed to be serious since the leadership was coming.

Soon after, Lin Yi’s car parked outside, and Shen Tianzhuo welcomed him in.

“Boss Shen, have you been busy recently?”

“Somewhat.”

Shen Tianzhuo didn’t hide it from Lin Yi, “Research on the three-nanometer chip and the carbon-based chip is happening simultaneously, and we’re a bit short-staffed.”

“If we need more people, just hire them; don’t worry about the cost.”

“It’s fine, we can do some overtime and squeeze out some time,” Shen Tianzhuo said with a smile,

“Did you come here for something today?”

“I’ve got a design for a carbon-based chip; I came to show you; let’s talk in the office.”

“A design for a carbon-based chip?” Shen Tianzhuo was stunned, “Did you come up with it?” @@novelbin@@

Lin Yi nodded, feeling rightfully entitled to do so.

“Let’s go take a look.”

Shen Tianzhuo eagerly led Lin Yi to his office.

The other researchers exchanged glances, their eyes wide and mouths open, as if they were hallucinating.

“Did you guys just hear that? Director Lin said he came up with a design for a carbon-based chip,” Sun Ning said unexpectedly.

“Yeah, it seems so.”

“But we’ve been researching for so long without success. Director Lin manages countless tasks, and he did this alone? How could he have the capability?”

“Maybe that’s just genius, but I still can’t believe it; maybe it’s just a part of it.”

“I think so too,” said Fan Yong,

“It might just be a superficial achievement; don’t speculate wildly.”

“I beg to differ,” Sun Ning said.

“Heh…” Fan Yong said, “It’s pointless to talk about this now; after they come out, we’ll ask Boss Shen and find out.”

About half an hour later, Lin Yi and Shen Tianzhuo came out of the office.

Lin Yi looked relaxed, while Shen Tianzhuo appeared rather moved.

“Boss Shen, I’ll be going now. Call me if there’s anything.”

“Okay.”

Shen Tianzhuo escorted Lin Yi out, and they chatted at the door for a while before Lin Yi drove away.

Of course, when Shen Tianzhuo came back, he was immediately surrounded by the twenty-some researchers.

“Boss, the carbon-based chip design that Director Lin gave you, what’s it like? Can you share? It might help our research.”

“It’s the complete process and very comprehensive,” Shen Tianzhuo sighed, “We were all wrong in our previous research directions. After seeing Director Lin’s design, I truly understood what a carbon-based chip is; our prior research was all in vain.”

Everyone gasped upon hearing this, shocked by the news.

“Fan Yong, didn’t you just say Director Lin’s work was rudimentary? How do you feel now? Isn’t this a slap to the face?”

Fan Yong: …
