177: Chapter 177 Fruit Company Crisis

Jobs rubbed his forehead, pondering how to break the deadlock.

Many people were seated around the circular conference table, all silent.

They were speechless regarding the emergence of longxin 918, a chip with absolutely formidable power.

Even the most cutting-edge research products at their Fruit Company headquarters weren't as powerful as this thing.

The most crucial part was that this thing was integrated technology, capable of fitting into a small phone, and it could rival their giant chips!

After seeing the appearance of longxin 918, they all began to doubt their own research capabilities.

Perhaps their Fruit Company would no longer hold an absolute leading position in the world.

This was definitely a profound blow to them.

"What do you all think?"

"Our Fruit Company is now on the brink of life and death. Do you still want to just sit back and watch all your past efforts turn to ashes?"

Jobs glanced at everyone present, his brows furrowed, speaking with a heavy tone.

Everyone present had unpleasant expressions; naturally, they were unwilling to see their economic empire collapse like this.

However, there was nothing they could do. After longxin 918 appeared, there was nothing in their company that could replace it.

If they only talked about sentimentality and not capability, they probably wouldn't last long.

A moment of silence fell among the crowd...

They all lowered their heads, not daring to look at Jobs.

Seeing this, Jobs slammed the table and roared, "Is this how you treat your company? Did I spend so much money inviting you here just for you to freeload?"

Facing Jobs' roar, everyone buried their heads even lower.

If they were to compete with hard power, they felt they had no chance of winning.

After seeing Jobs' frenzy, someone in the meeting quickly looked up and said with a bitter smile:

"President, I don't think this matter can be approached from the hardware side. If we focus on research and development, this research project might be extended for several years, and there's a possibility of investing a huge amount of capital right now..."

"By that time, Dragon Country's longxin 918 would have already gone through several iterations, and we absolutely wouldn't be able to catch up!"

After hearing this, Jobs nearly spat out a mouthful of blood in anger!

At this moment, seeing someone speak, another person immediately chimed in and continued:

"Yes, yes... With this time and opportunity, why don't we just directly purchase longxin 918? It's not only time-saving and labor-saving, but also cheaper, isn't it?"

"If President, you think it's difficult for us to get the goods, I have many scalpers under me, so the supply of chips shouldn't be a problem."

"If there are still obstacles, then we can only ask those people on Wall Street to help pull some strings. Anyway, for them, they'll do anything for money."

"Yes, yes..."

...

The others also quickly chimed in at this time.

They all unanimously believed that there was no need to catch up with longxin 918; if they needed it, they could just buy it with money.

However, how could Jobs easily accept such a thing?

He had a grim expression; although he said nothing, it was as if he had said everything.

These people naturally understood Jobs' inner thoughts, but they all thought it was impossible.

At this moment, someone suddenly spoke up:

"President, actually, I think this matter can be approached from other angles..."

"Speak!"

Jobs quickly nodded upon hearing this.

After so long, someone finally said something sensible.

He was somewhat expectant.

And soon, the other person said, "Since we're taking things from their Dragon Country anyway, why not just take their designer directly..."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes lit up.

Good heavens...

If they couldn't directly snatch their product, why not just snatch their person?

This tactic had been used many times in Pretty Country before!

For those high-end talents in the east of Dragon Country, Pretty Country had poached many through various means.

This was quite common for them.

Jobs raised an eyebrow slightly upon hearing this, then quickly his thoughts settled. Perhaps this was a good method.

Their Fruit Company already had many Dragon Country people with Pretty Country identities.

And at this point, the other person continued:

"Perhaps you all don't know, but the person who created longxin 918 is actually just a University Student. Isn't it easy to deal with a University Student?"

Upon hearing this, the entire room was shocked!

Good heavens!

A University Student?!

"Is that true...?"

For a moment, everyone found it hard to accept. This was an existence that completely transcended their understanding of the era, yet it was developed by a University Student.

This would already be quite explosive in their scientific community.

Jobs also raised an eyebrow slightly upon hearing this, subtly moved.

However, he was still somewhat skeptical.

A University Student in his early twenties could produce a three-nanometer chip, and its functionality was even more exaggerated than their chips...

That alone showed the ability of that University Student!

"Is this matter confirmed?"

Jobs quickly asked suspiciously.

The other person immediately chuckled after hearing this, "Don't worry, this is absolutely true. I only found out he was a University Student after investigating the beginning and end of this matter..."

"If it were really developed by those old guys from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, how could they fill in a person named Lin Heng in the project leader's column?"

"If it weren't for the fact that they really couldn't plagiarize his knowledge, the project leader would probably have their names written down."

Upon hearing this, Jobs quickly confirmed it.

He nodded deeply.

Then, Jobs quickly opened the material handed to him and began to examine it carefully.

"The meeting is adjourned for today. I will contact someone to go to Dragon Country..."

After saying this, he picked up the material in his hand and walked out, reading it as he went.

And upon seeing Lin Heng's past on the material, Jobs discovered that there was actually such an overpowered person in this world...

He hadn't expected that he himself was already quite overpowered, but no one was more abnormal than him!

All the way, Jobs' expression was one of shock, and each time was more shocking than the last!

Hiss...!

"This kid is not simple!"

However, Jobs did not give up just like that. He quickly took out his phone and called a familiar number.

"Help me bring someone from Dragon Country. You set the price, depending on the situation..."
