415: Bottom line!

"It's truly incredible! Hard to imagine!"

"Controlled nuclear fusion is truly amazing, electricity prices near Beijing have now plummeted through the earth's core! It's utterly incredible! I even dare to keep my air conditioning on 24 hours a day now! It's only ten cents for one kilowatt-hour per hour! So worth it!"

"Indeed! I feel like Controlled nuclear fusion will actually unleash electricity demand; costs are lowered, revenue increases, and profits have become much higher! It's utterly incredible just thinking about it! They can actually take out ten percent of this thing to sell!"

"Incredible! I'm going to register right now! If I win the lottery, I'll sell everything I own to buy it!"

"Uh, isn't the problem... if you actually win one share, how much will it cost to buy? I feel like this thing is super valuable!"

"Guess this Nine Heavens Energy should be valued in the trillions! Ten percent is a hundred billion, so each share is probably around ten thousand yuan!"

"Holy crap! I feel like some companies would be willing to pay double the price to buy this qualification!"

"Feels like if you have a few hundred shares, you can retire afterwards!"

"Nonsense, a few hundred shares! You can definitely retire!"

"Quick, go register on the government app!"

...

The Dragon Country internet was buzzing with activity.

Meanwhile, the global internet was also filled with envious voices.

"My God, technology of this level, they're actually taking it out to share with the public? Are those people in Dragon Country crazy? They're actually giving back to the people in the form of a lottery!"

"That's Controlled nuclear fusion! I'm so envious, why don't I have a Dragon Country ID card!"

"Excuse me, how can I get a Dragon Country ID card!"

Public opinion was buzzing.

When Guo Hao saw this news, his brow furrowed slightly.

He immediately dialed Director Hu's number.

"Hello? Is this Director Hu?"

Guo Hao asked Director Hu directly.

"What is it? Please speak!"

"What's the deal with that five percent of shares?"

Guo Hao asked Director Hu directly.

"It wasn't taken by some young master, was it?"

Guo Hao's tone was unfriendly; he couldn't control other things, but Controlled nuclear fusion was, after all, the technology he was solely responsible for developing.

Regarding this technology, Guo Hao had no objection to the state directly taking seventy percent of the shares.

After all, the state had invested at least over fifty billion before and after in the development of this technology, as well as a large amount of human and material resources.

Although his own role was crucial, it absolutely couldn't be said that the other Professors weren't important.

It could be said that the state's visible and invisible investments in Controlled nuclear fusion were too numerous; the technology belonging to the state was something Guo Hao had no objection to at all.

Giving him ten percent purchasing rights could be said to be a reward for his contributions to Controlled nuclear fusion!

Besides that, giving other researchers a total of five percent purchasing rights was also completely understandable.

Then, the remaining fifteen percent, giving back to the people through a lottery, was originally a very good thing.

But now, five percent was missing right under his nose.

This made Guo Hao a bit unhappy!

"Professor Guo... it's like this, there was a high-level meeting a few days ago discussing the social security fund. As you know, the current situation of the social security fund is really not good at all.

So, the higher-ups decided to let the social security fund purchase five percent to act as a balance for social security..."

Director Hu hesitated slightly before speaking.

"Ah, I see, alright then!"

Guo Hao nodded.

Social security is related to pension insurance and medical insurance, two huge areas concerning people's livelihoods, so it really should get some shares.

"What about the pricing? Has it been released yet?"

"Ten thousand yuan per share, valuing the entire enterprise at one trillion yuan."

Director Hu said to Guo Hao.

"Okay!"

"So, my ten percent requires an investment of a hundred billion?"

"That's right!"

Director Hu nodded.

"Understood!"

For Guo Hao, taking out a hundred billion was quite easy; it was just a matter of temporarily mortgaging some shares.

It was all minor.

Besides, even without collateral, Guo Hao might be able to easily borrow hundreds of billions from the bank just based on his reputation!

Too many companies wanted to invest in Guo Hao.

They couldn't contact Guo Hao, but President Huai had received far too many calls.

They wanted to invest money in Guo Hao's Laboratory, investing wildly.

They were all rejected by Guo Hao.

There was no need!

He wasn't short on money!

Over the next few days, the focus of the entire Dragon Country was basically all on the qualification to subscribe for Nine Heavens Energy shares.

Many people were discussing it.

Most people were thinking that if they could win the qualification to buy a few hundred shares, they would definitely buy them!

Even if it meant losing everything, they would buy them!

It was just a bit regrettable that Nine Heavens Energy was prohibited from being sold to foreigners.

The only option might be for foreign capital to find a Dragon Country citizen to hold them on their behalf, but this also carried huge risks.

Everyone estimated!

Trading of Nine Heavens Energy shares would become very frequent, and the price would definitely rise!

Just when everyone's attention was on Nine Heavens Energy, this new global energy company.

At this moment, in Shanghai.

After a busy day, Xu Zhiyuan tidied the documents on his desk and left his office.

Smiling and greeting the civil servants nearby, he walked to the underground parking lot.

As usual, he habitually got into his car.

But as soon as he got in, he felt something was wrong.

There was a stranger in the car!

He was just about to press the alarm button.

"Don't waste your effort, everything in this car has been modified by us. You can't contact the outside from here. Come with us."

Zhou Xun lightly fiddled with the lighter in his hand and said indifferently to Xu Zhiyuan.

"Who are you??"

Xu Zhiyuan was, after all, the Deputy Mayor of Shanghai, a very high rank.

Holding a high position, he still carried some authority.

"You'll know in a bit! Drive!"

The vehicle slowly drove out of the underground garage.

Soon, the vehicle arrived at a dilapidated house in the suburbs of Shanghai.

"Mr. Xu, Shen Zhiyuan, you know him, right?"

Zhou Xun smiled slightly, looked at Xu Zhiyuan sitting in front of him, and said with a faint smile.

Hearing Zhou Xun's words, Xu Zhiyuan's expression changed slightly.

"I don't know him, who is Shen Zhiyuan? And who are you? Do you know that kidnapping a state official is a serious crime! Without proper official procedure, no matter who you are, this is an illegal and criminal act!"

Xu Zhiyuan reprimanded Zhou Xun.

"Crime? Then what do you call your actions? Colluding with foreign powers! Assassinating a national treasure-level scientist of Dragon Country! Doesn't that count as endangering national security?

I'm warning you! If you're smart, tell us everything about what happened back then! What the person behind you did is very dangerous! Extremely dangerous!

It has already touched upon the state's bottom line!! This is not something that can be solved just by going to jail!"

"I didn't!"

Hearing Zhou Xun's words, Xu Zhiyuan answered subconsciously.

But quickly, he felt something was wrong and rapidly fell silent.
