1: Chapter 1: Xu's Heavy Industry on the Verge of Bankruptcy!

"If we don't land some partnership projects soon, Xu's Heavy Industry is truly going to go bankrupt..."

Xu Hao sat in his office chair with a furrowed brow.

He looked completely dejected.

He was a transmigrator, and his current identity was the chairman of the Xu's Heavy Industry Group.

The world he had transmigrated into was called Blue Star.

Its technological level, cultural standards, and the like were all quite similar to his previous world.

However...

When others transmigrated, they were either wealthy young heirs or heaven-sent prodigies.

He, on the other hand, had inherited a Xu's Heavy Industry Group that was on the verge of bankruptcy.

Over the past few years, Xu's Heavy Industry had been in decline, with its business operations going from bad to worse.

Under the combined siege of several other large heavy industry groups, its market share had gradually shrunk.

Previously, the Xu's Heavy Industry Group had tens of thousands of employees, but over half had already left.

Without projects to take on and no capital flowing in, the situation at Xu's Heavy Industry was becoming increasingly dire.

Before his father passed away, he had handed the group over to him and urged him:

"You must develop and grow Xu's Heavy Industry well~"

"This is the life's work of your father."

Whenever he thought of this, Xu Hao felt immense pressure.

Although he was a transmigrator, he had, after all, taken over the original owner's body.

Thinking of the original owner's father's earnest expectations and his deathbed entrustment, Xu Hao couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

"It seems I have to take the initiative to seek out some partnerships to bring Xu's Heavy Industry back from the brink of death..."

He rubbed his temples, his face full of worry.

For the past few days, he had been thinking about how to get the Xu's Heavy Industry Group back on track.

However, in all this time, he had tried various methods but hadn't found a single solution.

He moved his mouse and opened Weibo.

A post caught his eye:

Director Guo Fan: The movie I am currently filming needs some large-scale mechanical props. Is there any company in the country that can make them? Please direct message me.

"Director Guo Fan? Director Guo..." Seeing the name, Xu Hao was stunned.

He muttered to himself, his expression shifting slightly.

He calmly clicked in and checked the verification label on Director Guo Fan's personal page: Director of the movie "The Wandering Earth"!

""The Wandering Earth"!"

Xu Hao's eyes lit up instantly.

Others might not be aware of it, but as a transmigrator, Xu Hao was very clear about this science fiction movie.

At first, not many people paid attention to this sci-fi movie, thinking it was just an ordinary sci-fi film—all hype and no substance.

However.

When it first hit the screen and entered the audience's field of vision.

Only then did everyone truly experience the shock this sci-fi movie brought to people.

An epoch-making sci-fi masterpiece!!

Its vast cosmic worldview, bold action plans, stunning special effects, and so on, attracted many people to go to the cinema to watch it.

The box office soared, outperforming all competitors.

Because the first installment was a hit, the audience was naturally extremely expectant for the second one.

It did not disappoint anyone.

The second part of "The Wandering Earth" was also equally brilliant, even faintly better than the first.

Besides the movie itself, the super sci-fi heavy machinery products in it were also very popular, sparking heated discussions.

The Engineer Xu Group, which participated in the construction and research and development, saw its stock price soar repeatedly because of the movie's popularity, and orders for large heavy industrial machines from home and abroad exploded.

Recalling these things, Xu Hao's blood boiled, and his breathing became much faster.

"I didn't expect that even though the world has changed, that familiar Director Guo Fan hasn't changed."

"However, I originally thought he only started looking for partnerships online for the second film, but I didn't expect that on Blue Star, Director Guo Fan was already doing this while preparing to film the first one."

"But for my Xu's Heavy Industry, isn't this a very good opportunity?"

Xu Hao was secretly excited, his face full of agitation, looking at the computer screen with shining eyes.

For himself and Xu's Heavy Industry, wasn't this an opportunity?

If he could cooperate with Director Guo Fan and participate in the filming of "The Wandering Earth", wouldn't the crisis be easily resolved?

Moreover, this was just the first part of "The Wandering Earth". Given the popularity of this movie in his previous life, there would definitely be a second, or even a third part.

If he could cooperate with Director Guo Fan from the first part, wouldn't that mean...

Thinking of this, Xu Hao no longer hesitated and immediately took action.

It's just that...

He suddenly realized that he didn't seem to have Director Guo Fan's private contact information.

"Forget it, since Director Guo is asking for cooperation on Weibo, I'll use Weibo to contact him too."

Xu Hao laughed helplessly, then clicked on Director Guo Fan's private message and sent him a message.

"Hello Director Guo, I am the chairman of the Xu's Heavy Industry Group. Could you please introduce the movie "The Wandering Earth" in detail? I would like to discuss a potential partnership, thank you!"

Although he had a detailed understanding of this movie, since he was seeking cooperation, Xu Hao still politely inquired.

At this time, Director Guo Fan did not have much fame, and not many people paid attention to him.

He was still just an obscure little director.

It wasn't until the movie "The Wandering Earth" was released that people gradually knew there was such a director.

He originally thought he would have to wait a long time for Director Guo Fan to reply, but unexpectedly, a few minutes later, Director Guo Fan replied to the private message.

"Hello!"

"Hello!" Xu Hao returned to the computer, his fingers flying across the keyboard, and replied.

"Could you please introduce your company in detail?"

"Okay, please wait a moment, I will send you the relevant information about the company in document form." Xu Hao replied.

He opened the folder on his computer, organized the company's basic information into a booklet, added pictures of the company's R&D products, and sent it all to Director Guo Fan.

Although Xu's Heavy Industry was not in a good state now, it had at least been glorious before.

They had developed many large machines, such as cranes, large agricultural machinery, and so on.

These were the assets that allowed them to occupy a place in the Longguo heavy industry sector.

However, now, these assets were gradually being replaced.

Without funds for R&D, their technology gradually fell behind, and they slowly lost the market.

Naturally, Xu's Heavy Industry gradually lost its former glory.

On the other side, Director Guo Fan waited for a while and received the relevant information sent by Xu Hao.

He opened them one by one and took a rough look, immediately having the intention to cooperate with him.

Although Xu's Heavy Industry was not the best heavy industry group in Longguo, for him at the moment, it was already quite good.

For his movie, there were too few people willing to invest.

Even the startup capital for filming was something he had to go to many places and talk until he was blue in the face to secure.

And for the various sci-fi props needed for filming, he had looked for many enterprises and companies, but none were willing to provide support.

Having no other choice, he had to seek cooperation on Weibo.

However, the Weibo post had been up for almost a day, and no enterprise had come to discuss cooperation.

Until just now, he received the message sent by Xu Hao.

Although he hadn't really heard of the Xu's Heavy Industry Group, the fact that someone was interested in cooperating with him now was already a great joy.

Guo Fan Film Industry, for the current film industry in Longguo, was just a small film and television company, and not many people looked up to it.

After reading these materials, Director Guo Fan immediately replied to Xu Hao's message:

"I am interested in cooperating with your company. Where is your company located? I will come to your company to discuss it in person later."

"Sure, the address is: xxxxxxxx. Then I will wait for you at the company." Seeing Director Guo Fan's reply, Xu Hao's face lit up with joy and he was all smiles.

A preliminary intention to cooperate had been reached!!

Xu Hao took a deep breath, suppressing the excitement in his heart.

He lay comfortably in his chair, a faint smile hanging on his lips.

And it was at this moment that a cold and crisp voice suddenly sounded in his mind:

" [ MOSS Technology System ], activation successful, binding to host..."
