79: Chapter 79 Back to School, a Little Makeover
"Everyone," Jiang Jing raised his voice, "is there anyone left who doubts the authenticity of this technology?"
The workshop fell silent. The gazes that had once held mockery and doubt were now replaced by awe and shock.
Engineer Wu was the first to step forward. This experienced mechanical engineer looked as uneasy as an apprentice at this moment: "Jiang... Mr. Jiang, I was blind just now. This technology... it's simply a miracle!"
Professor Li took off his reading glasses, wiped the lenses vigorously, and put them back on, as if he couldn't believe what he was seeing: "Young man... no, Mr. Jiang, do you know what this means? Petroleum, coal, nuclear energy... all of these will become history!"
"Not only that." Chen Wei finally found her voice, though her tone remained unsteady, "The entire global economic landscape will be reshuffled. The country... no, the enterprise that masters this technology will become the master of the new era."
Her gaze became fervent; she was no longer looking at an employer, but looking up at a giant capable of changing history.
Wang Ye silently closed his laptop. This hacker, who was usually arrogant, stood up and bowed deeply to Jiang Jing: "I apologize for my offense just now. This technology... is too terrifying. If it were to leak out..."
Lawyer Zhang San had already taken out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat: "Mr. Jiang, this is no longer just a trade secret, but... a technology at the level of national strategy."
Zhao Tiejun straightened his back; a soldier's instinct made him immediately enter a state of readiness: "The security in this workshop is too weak. I need to deploy personnel immediately to establish a three-tier defense perimeter."
The most surprising reaction came from Zhang Mingyuan. This old scientist suddenly grabbed Jiang Jing's hand, his eyes flashing with a fanatical light: "Mr. Jiang, please allow me to join your team! I don't need a salary, just let me study this technology... This is the dream of my life!"
Jiang Jing helped the excited old professor up: "Dr. Zhang, you are too modest. You are exactly the scientific leader we need."
The atmosphere in the workshop had completely changed. The suspicion, disdain, and even disgust from when they first entered had all transformed into heartfelt admiration and a strong sense of belonging.
Everyone realized that they were standing at a turning point in history, and the person leading them was this seemingly ordinary yet unfathomable young man.
"Everyone," Jiang Jing's voice echoed in the workshop, "today is just the beginning. Xingchen Technology will become the leader of the new era, and you will be the creators of this revolution."
As everyone expressed their desire to join Jiang Jing's company, influenced by the skill [Leadership Charisma], everyone's loyalty reached 100.
Never to betray!
Jiang Yan quietly picked up the dropped tablet, her fingers trembling slightly. She had never imagined that the young employer who always lay lazily on the sofa actually possessed such astonishing power...
[Jiang Yan Favorability +5] (Currently 44)
Jiang Jing looked at the group of top-tier talents before him who had transformed from skeptics into followers, and a satisfied smile curled at the corners of his mouth.
...
Zhou Wenying drove an orange Porsche slowly into the campus of Rongcheng University, while Qin Shuang followed closely behind in an Ice Berry Pink 911 GT3 RS.
The engine roars of the two supercars were like a passionate symphony, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
"Holy crap! Is that a Porsche 918? Am I seeing things?" A bespectacled boy stopped abruptly, the books in his hands nearly falling to the ground.
"And that one next to it is a 911 GT3 RS! This color is so flashy!" His companion widened his eyes, his voice trembling with excitement.
"I wonder which rich kid came to school to pick up girls." A boy's tone was filled with envy and jealousy.
The two sports cars drove side by side on the main campus road, the sunlight spilling onto the car bodies, refracting dazzling light.
Passing students stopped one after another; some took out their phones to take photos frantically, while others opened their mouths wide, looking on in disbelief.
"Look! Isn't that Zhou Wenying?" A girl pointed at the driver's seat of the 918 and exclaimed.
"Oh my god, it really is her! Is she actually driving a supercar worth over ten million to school?" Another girl covered her mouth, her eyes full of envy.
What shocked everyone even more was that in the 911 GT3 RS following Zhou Wenying, the person sitting inside was actually Qin Shuang!
"Qin Shuang?! Since when did she start driving a supercar too?" A boy rubbed his eyes, thinking he had seen it wrong.
"Weren't they both fighting for attention at the party yesterday? How are they driving to school together today?" Someone muttered in a low voice.
The two cars stopped in the parking area in front of the teaching building. Zhou Wenying and Qin Shuang opened their car doors simultaneously and stepped out with their long, beautiful legs.
Zhou Wenying was wearing a tight black dress today, paired with a pair of high heels, and her whole being exuded sexiness and confidence.
Qin Shuang chose a white dress, which carried a hint of charm within its purity, complementing the color of her sports car perfectly.
"Wen Ying, your car is so cool!" A girl who was familiar with Zhou Wenying ran over, carefully touching the body of the 918, her eyes full of envy.
Zhou Wenying smiled slightly, her tone relaxed: "It's alright, Brother Jing gave it to me, said it was just a commuter car."
"A commuter car?!" The surrounding students gasped; a supercar worth over ten million was actually just a "commuter car"?
There was also a crowd around Qin Shuang, and someone couldn't help but ask: "Qin Shuang, have you and Zhou Wenying... made up?"
Qin Shuang glanced at Zhou Wenying, the corners of her mouth slightly raised: "We never really had any conflict, and our relationship is very good now."
Her tone was calm, yet it left the surrounding people even more confused. The two who were at daggers drawn yesterday were actually as close as sisters today?
"Could it be that they are actually sharing the same boyfriend?" A girl whispered to her companion.
"Shh! Don't talk nonsense!" Her companion quickly covered her mouth, but the fire of gossip in her eyes was burning fiercely.
Zhou Wenying heard their discussion, but instead of getting angry, she smiled and took Qin Shuang's arm: "Senior, let's go, we'll be late if we don't go now."
Qin Shuang nodded, and the two walked side by side towards the teaching building in full view of everyone, leaving a trail of dropped jaws behind them.
"This world is too magical..." A boy muttered to himself.
"If I could have a boyfriend like that, I'd do anything!" A girl held her face, her eyes full of yearning.
"That's if the rich guy even takes a fancy to you..."
