84: Director Long, would you like to light a sun in the East China Sea?

When that rhetorical question, filled with cold murderous intent, "How should we 'deal' with our old friends?" clearly echoed in the meeting room, the entire Meeting Room No. 1 erupted!

"An eye for an eye! We must give them an eye for an eye!"

"Exactly! We should also monopolize energy! We should also choke them! Let them taste the fear of being dominated by us!"

"I propose listing Controllable Nuclear Fusion technology as a top-level 'God-tier' secret! It is strictly forbidden to leak even a single bit to any other country!"

For a moment, the entire Meeting Room No. 1 was filled with righteous indignation!

All the bigwigs were like a group of farmers who had just won a battle, excitedly discussing how to "dispose" of the "landlords and wealthy tyrants" who had once ridden on their heads and acted arrogantly!

However, right at this moment, that familiar, calm voice, seemingly devoid of any worldly concerns, slowly resonated once again through the highest-level encrypted line.

The entire Meeting Room No. 1 fell into a deathly silence once again.

All the bigwigs who had just been so agitated were like people whose throats had been tightly gripped by an invisible hand!

Their faces turned crimson!

They looked at the young man who was appearing on the video screen with a look of "helplessness."

They only felt their hearts starting to ache faintly again!

This phrase again?!

Is this kid, dammit, obsessed with the word "vision"?!

We are about to monopolize global energy and dominate the world, for God's sake!

And you still think our vision is small?!

Then what do you want to do?!

Do you want to go up to the sky and stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun?!

"That's right."

In the video, Lu Chen seemed to see through their thoughts and nodded calmly.

"I do want to go to the sky."

"And stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun."

He said these words indifferently.

But to the ears of all the bigwigs present, it made their souls tremble more than ten thousand of the loudest thunderclaps!

This kid, he couldn't possibly really want to...

"Director Long."

Lu Chen ignored the group of bigwigs who were completely terrified.

He just cast his gaze toward Long Weiguo, who was equally horrified.

A devilish, bewitching smile appeared on his face.

"Would you like to personally light an eternal sun on the shores of our Xia Country's East Sea?"

Boom!!!

This sentence was like a genesis oracle capable of splitting heaven and earth!

It struck hard into the depths of the souls of Long Weiguo and all the bigwigs present!

They were completely petrified!

They stared blankly at the young man on the screen with a "pure" smile on his face.

They only felt a cold chill capable of freezing their souls rushing from the soles of their feet straight to their scalps!

A madman!

This guy is simply not human!

He is a thorough, absolute madman!

He actually wants to recreate a sun on Earth?!

This is no longer scientific research!

This is clearly playing God!

"Lu Chen..."

Long Weiguo's sharp eyes were filled with subversive horror!

He looked at Lu Chen, his lips trembling, unable to say a complete sentence!

"You... are you serious about what you just said?"

"Of course it's true."

Lu Chen shrugged, his tone matter-of-fact.

"'Controllable Nuclear Fusion,' this kind of 'primary' energy, which is like a child's game, can barely support our initial 'space program'."

"But to truly achieve interstellar travel or even warp flight, what we need is a super energy core comparable to a star!"

"So... isn't it normal to create a sun just for fun?"

The entire Meeting Room No. 1 fell into a deathly silence once again.

All the bigwigs looked at the "innocent" young man on the screen as if they were looking at a monster.

Their brains were blank!

Create a sun just for fun?! Listen to that! Is that human language?! This is simply a god looking down on ants!

"Ahem."

Finally, the leader cleared his throat, his wise eyes filled with a complex, wry smile.

He looked at Lu Chen and said helplessly, "Comrade Lu Chen, I admit your idea is magnificent. But, one must eat one bite at a time. One must walk one step at a time. Can we first keep our feet on the ground and get that small 'Controllable Nuclear Fusion' done? As for such a great undertaking as 'creating a sun,' can we put it off for a while?"

"Fine."

Lu Chen sighed as if "disappointed." "Since you've said so, I'll compromise and build a smaller one to play with."

Hearing his answer, which was full of "humblebragging," all the bigwigs present felt a tightness in their chests! A mouthful of hot blood almost sprayed out on the spot!

What do you mean by 'compromise'?! What do you mean by 'build a smaller one to play with'?! That is 'Controllable Nuclear Fusion'! It is the ultimate dream that all the world's top scientists have struggled for over a hundred years to achieve! In your mouth, it has become a 'little toy'?! Will this kid die if he doesn't show off?!

"Alright."

Forcing down the urge to drag this arrogant kid out and spank him hard, he settled the matter with a final word: "'god of fire' energy project team is officially established! Comrade Long Weiguo will serve as the General Commander! Academician Wu Gang will serve as the Chief Engineer! As for Comrade Lu Chen, I'll have to trouble you to be the 'Chief Technical Consultant'."

"In addition, your 'sun of the east sea' plan, although it sounds a bit crazy. However, I personally like it very much. So I approve it in my personal capacity. I will provide the money and land, you just go ahead and do it. I have only one request. I hope that before I close my eyes, I can see with my own eyes that sun lit by our Xia Country people."
