I'll Add Points To All Things

Chapter 779: The Dust Settles, And The Nation Acknowledges

After all, Su Yang’s glass phone didn’t need any signal, he could use the virtual space to transmit data.

In fact, not only could the virtual space transmit data, they could also transmit objects and living beings.

‘According to the number of “G”, the current development Earth is able to achieve is 5G. In that case, wouldn’t my technology be 500G?

‘Eh?

‘Why does it seem like some kind of storage unit for girls?

‘Also...

‘Leaving aside transmission technology for now...’

At that thought, Su Yang looked at the sky silently. ‘Isn’t the main reason why I’m able to escape the “sanctions” from these countries because of the profitable contributions I’m offering?

‘Actually, for the sake of being able to receive this wave of support from various countries, I’ve asked the Clown Sea Serpent to borrow the resources of King Latin a month in advance to look for relevant public relations companies and suitable candidates. Moreover, I have also invested an astronomical amount of money in order to obtain positive feedback when Jiadian Group became the center of attraction of various countries.

‘To put it bluntly, it’s the same logic as before. Even though the country has its own “will”, the people who form these “wills” also have their own thoughts.

‘By influencing them to influence various countries is an unspoken rule in the world.

‘This is also the main reason why various countries have a positive attitude towards Jiadian Group. It’s not like the “Lighthouse Theory”, “Harmony Theory”, “Non-Threatening Technology Theory”, which are all being analyzed online...

‘Of course, the prerequisite for the Clown Sea Serpent and I to achieve all of this is that Jiadian Group was still relatively weak and had yet to show any threat to various countries or various markets.

‘However, if Jiadian Group has developed for many years, has enough technological barriers in various industries, sufficient funding, and was one of the world’s top research and development companies, none of the countries would be able to approve of this.’

As Su Yang silently lamented the amount of messy rumors and analysis being spread online, he turned off his glass phone and entered the virtual space...

Ever since he added a point for Little Deeny, the virtual space had changed drastically. Not only was the space much bigger, but he could also enter the real world with [Half-Descent]...

However, because Su Yang had been busy ever since he added a point to Little Deeny, he had never tested this function before.

Thus, now that most matters had come to an end, Su Yang felt that it was time for him to try out this ability.

‘After all, this function would be very helpful for my next global strategy.’

...

Just when Su Yang’s crisis was temporarily resolved and he was about to test out the new ability in the virtual space...

A secret interrogation was going on in a hidden office in Shanghai.

“Name.”

“Xu Yunhu.”

“Age.”

“38.”

“Position.”

“Zhejiang Province...”

In the office, the person being interrogated was the uniformed man serving Wang Jiang.

He was still wearing his uniform, but he was cuffed to a chair. Then, with his head lowered, he answered every question.

Opposite him were a man and a woman in plain clothes.

The two of them looked young, possibly in their late twenties. However, Xu Yunhu, the uniformed man, did not dare underestimate them because they were the ones who had captured him.

In fact, when these people had captured him, they had shown their IDs to be from the National Security Bureau.

This was a special department designed to protect the nation’s security. At times, they were so powerful that Xu Yunhu did not dare resist.

Thus, after recording the details of what happened with Xu Yunhu, the plain-clothed man raised his head and asked, “May I know who instigated you to investigate Jiadian Group?”

Xu Yunhu lowered his head and did not speak.

However, the plain-clothed man did not mind. After all, they had Xu Yunhu’s phone records, so they already knew who it was and the question was only routine work.

After jotting down a few notes on the document, the plain-clothed man asked again, “Before the investigation, did you already know that the Jiadian Group’s matters are confidential?”

Xu Yunhu did not remain silent this time. He nodded. “I did.”

The plain-clothed man nodded and took out a document wrapped in a plastic bag. “I’m going to verify each and everything that you’ve investigated and recorded in this document.”

Then, the two of them verified all the information regarding Xu Yunhu’s investigation and recorded it down.

After recording it, the plain-clothed man sealed the document again and recorded it.

While he was recording, Xu Yunhu looked up.

He looked at the plain-clothed man and hesitated for a moment. In the end, he asked in confusion, “We’ve already verified all the information we’ve gathered earlier. Don’t you guys feel that there’s something wrong with Jiadian Group?”

The plain-clothed man looked up at him as he recorded. “We might know more than you do.

“However, we are only executioners, not the decision makers.

“After the information was reported, the higher-ups did not say that there was anything wrong with it, so they are in the clear.

Xu Yunhu furrowed his brows. “So, Jiadian Group is to remain as unclear as it is right now?”

The plain-clothed man looked at him again and opened his mouth to say something. However, the plain-clothed woman sitting next to him coughed lightly and interrupted him. “Is this a casual chat session or an interrogation?”

The plain-clothed man hurriedly replied, “Understood.” After that, he lowered his head and recorded, not speaking anymore...

...

While Xu Yunhu was being interrogated, Wang Jiang from the Wangs was also being questioned in Hangzhou.

Compared to Xu Yunhu’s interrogation which was formal and serious, the atmosphere here was much more relaxed with fewer people involved.

In fact, it was only between Wang Jiang and an old man.

The old man’s status was obviously very high because Wang Jiang had behaved like the old man’s junior the entire time.

The old man sat behind the table and asked Wang Jiang about the reason for his investigation of Jiadian Group and the information that Wang Jiang had found out. Then he closed the file.

Seeing this, Wang Jiang quickly stood up and personally poured a cup of tea for the old man. Then, he bowed and passed it to the old man. “Old Master Li, thank you for making the trip here.”

The old man smiled, took the cup of tea, and said casually, “It’s nothing, just a routine inquiry. With your status, you can actually come into contact with these secrets. However, before the country has settled down, it’s taboo for you to come into contact with them.

“The reason I’ve come to question you this time is first and foremost, to give you a warning, to let you know that you shouldn’t overstep your boundaries. Secondly, to let you relax and not be overly nervous.

“After all, it’s not easy for the country to groom talents.”

Wang Jiang nodded repeatedly. “I understand.”

The old man took a sip of tea and then asked, “By the way, the security bureau has helped you investigate your son’s case. The situation is rather special and strange, right? However, we did not manage to find any evidence related to the chairman and the people around him.

“So, it’s unwise to investigate someone with such a sensitive identity without any evidence.

“Therefore, I advise you to give up on these thoughts for now and not let something like this happen again.”

At the mention of this, Wang Jiang clenched his fists and said unwillingly, “Old Master Li, although I have only investigated for a few days, I have already found many suspicious points about Jiadian Group. Hasn’t the higher-ups noticed this?”

Old Master Li put down his teacup and deliberated for a moment before saying, “Actually, they have. But... It’s just a minor issue. After all, other than some people’s identities being fake, well... Or rather, new identities being made through connections, there aren’t that many suspicious points.

“Plus, with Old Master Jiang as his guarantor, the higher-ups dropped the matter.”

Old Master Li sighed and said, “Young Wang, you have to understand. At such a crucial moment, we have to unite all the forces that can be united instead of causing other problems like investigating, suspecting, and chucking them to our enemies.

“This is all for the prosperity of our country, for the revival of our countrymen.

“This is the bigger picture.

“Under such circumstances, there is no need to pay attention to such minor flaws and issues.”

The old man’s words revealed the spirit and breadth of mind of a large country.

Wang Jiang listened quietly. Although he felt the same way, he knew that he couldn’t do it.

However, it wasn’t because he couldn’t see the bigger picture, but because of his son...

After all, there are some grudges that can never be resolved...

At the very most, Wang Jiang could only... Avoid the issue temporarily.

...

While they were being interrogated, Su Yang received a call as well.

However, that was not a formal phone call, but from Jiang Yan.

Jiang Yan was still indifferent towards Su Yang. Ever since Su Yang used threats to force the Jiangs to get involved, she had been treating Su Yang with the same attitude.

“The country’s attitude toward you is clear, so you don’t have to worry anymore. Also, you can tell us what resources you need and what plans you have. The country will try to satisfy you or help you coordinate.

“Their only requirement is...

“The production rate of these products must increase.

“It can’t just be tens of thousands of units at a time.”

Hearing this, Su Yang was speechless.

‘It can’t just be tens of thousands of units at a time?

‘But, that’s already half a month’s worth of hard work!

‘Normally, there wouldn’t even be this many units!

‘However, since the country had already asked Jiang Yan to deliver such a message, I suppose I can’t reject her. After all, it would be a plus if the production rate of my glass phones could be increased.’

With that thought in mind, Su Yang could not be bothered to explain anymore. Hence, he sent a list of raw materials over and requested the country to help link him up with the suppliers. Once this was done, the production rate would increase significantly.

On the other hand, Jiang Yan had never seen anyone so “realistic”. ‘The state merely asked him to make a request, yet he’s actually sent out a list worth 10-pages...’

However, she, who had always been quiet, remained quiet as she prepared to help Su Yang relay the message.

After the two of them finished their conversation, Su Yang hung up the phone and went to the virtual space. He wanted to study the [Half-Descent] function with Little Deeny.

However, before he could call out to Little Deeny, Little Deeny’s voice rang in his ears. “Master, there’s news from Old Master Pei.”

“There’s news?” Su Yang was stunned for a moment. He remembered that he had asked Old Master Pei to gather the raw materials as well, so he said, “Sure, let me take a look.”

As he spoke, a translucent virtual screen appeared in front of Su Yang. On it was the report submitted by Old Master Pei.

As someone from the older generation, even though Old Master Pei had been resurrected to his prime, he still retained his old habits, where he would love to put everything in a report.

This was actually a very efficient thing, it allowed the higher-ups to easily understand what had happened and their outcome.

Opening up Old Master Pei’s report, Su Yang read through the document quickly. ‘This document states that the materials I need are too complicated. Although most of them are common materials, there are still some that are difficult to deal with.

‘These items are either prohibited items or something only certain powerful countries have. Furthermore, they’re controlled by these powerful countries, so they aren’t easy to obtain. For example... Rare earth.’

At that thought, Su Yang rubbed his chin. ‘If that’s the case, it’s going to be difficult for me to collect them.

‘But, I should be able to have a chance if the country looks into this issue, shouldn’t I?’

At that thought, Su Yang felt that it was a good thing that the country had come knocking on his door. ‘Perhaps they could help me solve my raw material issue.

‘Of course, it’s not as if I definitely have to have these raw materials... I’ve got to look at the cost ratio as well.

‘If this rare earth or other controlled products are too expensive, I wouldn’t need most of these materials anymore.

‘After all, the [Cellphone Development Factory] doesn’t require the complete set of raw materials to begin production. If there are shortages, I could use some coins to make up for them.’

At that thought, Su Yang sent a message to Old Master Pei, telling him to transport the materials that he had bought into the virtual space first. Meanwhile, Su Yang would deal with the controlled raw materials that could not be acquired.

After sending the message to Old Master Pei, Su Yang decided to continue with his [Half-Descent] experiment.

Hence, he called out, “Little Deeny.”

All of a sudden, there was a crisp sound and a well-behaved Little Deeny appeared in front of Su Yang. “Master, you were looking for me?”

Su Yang tilted his head and looked at Little Deeny seriously for a while. After a moment of confusion, he asked, “You’re not Little Deeny, are you?”

Little Deeny laughed happily and did not look embarrassed at all. “I can’t hide it from you indeed. Master, this is my doppelganger.”

Su Yang raised his eyebrows. “Where have you gone then?”

Little Deeny stuck out his tongue and said cutely, “I’ve gone shopping.”

Su Yang was speechless.

‘Sure enough, girls, regardless of their age or species, just love shopping!’

Then, Su Yang recalled the time when Little Deeny was still “weak”. When she made some money from the short videos, she already learnt how to do online shopping, with the milk tea shop as the recipient address, and asking Pool to bring it back to the virtual space for her.

Thus, now that Little Deeny finally had her own body and could go to the real world, it was only reasonable for her to go shopping.

Su Yang asked, “Are you alone?”

Little Deeny nodded before shaking her head again. “Sort of.”

Su Yang replied, “Huh? It’s a clear-cut question, so what does “sort of” mean?”

Little Deeny chuckled. “I brought two doppelgangers with me, we’re pretending to be triplets.”

Su Yang was speechless.

‘Nicely done.

‘I think it’s only a matter of time before she’s able to do all sorts of stuff with her doppelgangers.’

After figuring out Little Deeny’s whereabouts, Su Yang and Little Deeny chatted about [Half-Descent] in the virtual space.

The virtual space’s [Half-Descent] was a branch of the ability [Virtual And Reality Unified], which was obtained after Little Deeny became +5.

This ability could descend buildings, sceneries into the real world. On top of that, the ability could even descend partial objects such as a single door.
