The second lapdog recruitment campaign had officially ended. Xing Hai Technologies was caught in a vortex of public opinion for a while.

Chen Jin, too, received a lot of criticism and scolding on the internet.

“You have absolutely no respect for others!”

“This is too arrogant of you!”

“If you continue like this, the others won't respect you, and you'll definitely fall in the future.”

“Please be a civilized person, not a hooligan. You're disgracing our culture of comity.”

“This is very inappropriate!”

“I went from fan to hater.”

However, Chen Jin turned a deaf ear towards all those criticisms on the internet. Had he gone overboard?

Thinking about what the Japanese had done in the past and their denial of their crimes of aggression, the Gorean's shamelessness, Singapore's double-crossing and sly behavior, and Germany, which was even further away from being considered good.

Which of these countries hadn't made people feel angry and infuriated? What was wrong with asking them to bark a few times? It couldn't even compare to the interest of their treacherous acts!

Chen Jin shook his head. “The biggest weakness of the Z's is that we forget our vengeance too easily! We forget our pain when our wounds heal! With a smile and a few compliments, we will forget what the others have done to us in the past and selectively erase our unpleasant memories. We think that by giving the others our courtesy, they will repay us with the same.

“We'll wait until the white-eyed wolves mature, tear apart their disguises, and reveal their true cunning nature. By then, we will feel shocked, being punched in our own faces again and again and again. We'll never know that no matter how we expose good to evil, they'll never ever change.

“White-eyed wolves will remain white-eyed wolves. They will never become human! And lap dogs shall forever be lap dogs. There's no need to regard them as humans.

“Besides, the ones Xing Hai Technologies are recruiting are just lapdogs! They should be conscious about their roles and act appropriately! If they don't even have such consciousness, why are they still here, applying for partnership?”

Barbarians were no more than beasts. It was their nature to fear power and not possess any virtue or sense of gratitude.

It might not have been quite suitable to apply this phrase in the current civilized society, but Chen Jin thought that, towards most countries, this phrase was still applicable. Hence, Xing Hai Technologies had already prepared for the worst when they forged partnerships with other countries. They were taking the initiative firmly in their hands to avoid being overthrown.

“Xing Hai Technologies is a company that rules by force, and I'm a bad guy. Don't want to cooperate? Then scram,” Chen Jin mumbled to himself. This was always his style, after all.

More than a month had passed, and it was the first day of October.

Recently, a large amount of valuable data had been uploaded to the cloud servers from the Virtual Factory 2.0 on a 100 million billion supercomputer that Xing Hai Technologies had sold.

The organization responsible for the upload was “the Z Institute of Plasma Research.” The analog scientific device that generated the high-value data was the EAST 3.0. This massive scientific device had another well-known title—The Artificial Sun.

In the virtual world, Chen Jin was in shock while he asked Nuwa in front of him, “Are you 100 percent certain that they've set up the technology?”

“Yes, I'm certain.” Nuwa nodded. “They have already found the few most crucial criteria. The probability that they would achieve success is over 99 percent.”

“Really?” Chen Jin wasn't too convinced. He muttered, “Fumbling by themselves without needing our help, unveiling the hope of realizing infinite energy with just a 'virtual factory' in year 20X3? How is this possible?”

“Master, I also estimated that it would be 20X5 at the earliest that they would attain initial success, but we should never underestimate the work of a genius. In that team, there's a young professor by the surname Lu. He alone tackled three core difficulties, directly igniting the flare of hope.

“I estimate that in at most a months' time, after resolving those small insignificant problems, the age of infinite energy will dawn,” said Nuwa.

She projected the portrait of a young man in front of Chen Jin. The man could have been less than thirty, with profound eyes. He was very attractive. This man was professor Lu.

Chen Jin looked at him for a while. All of a sudden, he lifted his head and sighed. “Can't underestimate the heroes of the world!”

He also heard from Nuwa that this man was a research fanatic and still single. This was to say that this single man would, a month later, allow the Z nation to announce the dawn of an era of infinite energy.

What did this imply? How would this affect Chen Jin, who had been so surprised? In fact… the effect was very very big!

Even Chen Jin, who was someone that used hacks, had to lend his halo to that professor Lu and his research team, granting them the center position of the stage. He let them become the focus of the world as the most dazzling sun.

Chen Jin was reduced to a sidekick that orbited around them. He would also have to grab the opportunity to expand a series of operations to maximize his earnings before the new age arrived.

“Thank goodness they used the virtual factory and uploaded a ton of high-value data onto it, making me aware about this beforehand. They also allowed me to acquire the advantage of a 'prophet.'

“It's impossible now for Xing Hai Technologies to enter the field. I can't cross paths with that huge amount of electric bills anymore. I could only lay out my plans in advance to reap a large portion of benefits from the field using my 'prophet' advantage.”

What kind of benefits were considered big? After some thought, Chen Jin picked up his phone and gave Ling Jundong a call. The call swiftly connected.

Chen Jin said, “Old Ling, I have an urgent task for you. Set aside what you're doing now and go to Kings City immediately to discuss a partnership with the Ministry of Land and Resources.”

“Uhm, what partnership might this be, Mr. Chen?” asked Ling Jundong.

“Acquiring land. Xing Hai Technologies would like to purchase large areas of land.”

“What would we need it for? How much should we buy? Is our company going into real estate? This is a marvelous idea, Mr. Chen. House prices and rentals in Shanghai have been surging over the past two years with house prices increasing from 50 thousand to 100 thousand on average and rentals rising more than 50 percent. It resulted in a significant increase in our company's operating costs… We should indeed buy a few pieces of land and erect houses for our staff. It could save a lot of business costs.”

Ling Jundong began hurling out disses. He had publicly stated many times that the trend of Shanghai's swelling house prices was driving Xing Hai Technologies out of the city.

Now that his boss seemed interested in going into real estate, he raised both hands in support. Any high-tech company not doing real estate wasn't a good high-tech company.

“Old Ling, you've misunderstood what I meant. The land I want isn't land in big cities; it's the barren land in the Northwest Great Desert.”

Ling Dong Jun was stunned as he asked in confusion, “Barren land in the Northwest Great Desert? What would we buy land over there for?”

“Don't ask so much. Just go to Kings City right now.”

“Okay then. How many acres of land do you intend to buy, Mr. Chen?”

“Sixty-two thousand square miles!”

Pfff— Ling Jundong's saliva was spat out of his mouth.
