Huo Shaoheng held the coffee cup and thought quietly for a while, then began to cross-examine the details to see if the other party's words could be corroborated.
"...Gu Xiangwen hasn't sent your daughter a birthday gift in the past six years, so you haven't been curious to inquire about him?" Huo Shaoheng lowered his eyes and stared at the black coffee, lost in thought. He already planned to go back and asked Zhao Liangze to search for Kevin-Ku on the Internet. , "By the way, what kind of research is he doing? I'm curious. Is it too exaggerated to become an invisible rich man just by relying on patents?"
After Xie Dezhao scolded Gu Xiangwen, he felt much better. He took a sip of cappuccino and chatted with Huo Shaoheng.
"Major General Huo, you don't understand this. Intellectual property rights are very profitable abroad, and they make money while lying down." Xie Dezhao said with emotion, "Gu Xiangwen is indeed a capable person. I used to be very I admire him, his parents passed away early, he became the head of the family very early, and he is also very smart, he did not miss out on going to school or getting a scholarship."
"... He started studying for a joint MD+PHD degree when he was sixteen. He completed the degree in three years while others completed it in eight years. After completing the degree, he worked as a resident for two years and became interested in physics. He applied at the age of twenty I got a Ph.D. in Physics from MIT, which is ranked number one, and I graduated in just three years.”
Huo Shaoheng's fingers moved slightly.
Huo Shaoheng had met one person who was talented in reading, and that was Gu Nianzhi.
It seems to be hereditary...
"It's such a long transition from a doctor of medicine to a doctor of physics." Huo Shaoheng smiled, as if he was just letting it go.
"Oh, don't believe it. Although I despise his character and hate him, I can't deny his talent. He is indeed a genius." Xie Dezhao said with emotion, "Do you know Pratt-Whitney?"
Huo Shaoheng was startled again.
He is very familiar with this company...
"...A US military aircraft engine manufacturing company?"
"Yes! As expected of Major General Huo!" Xie Dezhao smiled and complimented him, "This company mainly manufactures turbofan engines for the military, and the most important patent in this engine is owned by Gu Xiangwen."
Huo Shaoheng's hand held the coffee cup tightly, almost breaking it.
He thought of the aircraft engine drawings in Gu Nianzhi's backpack. They were incredibly sophisticated and advanced!
It can be said that it is several eras ahead of the current most advanced engines of Pratt-Whitney...
Is this drawing actually related to Gu Xiangwen
Huo Shaoheng had not yet recovered from the shock of the news. Xie Dezhao added: "Gu Xiangwen studied physics for three years. After graduating with a Ph.D., he went to study for a Ph.D. in biology. When I met his sister Gu Tian, their family had already gone to school through him. The patents invented during this period made him a rich man who could rival the country."
"Really a rich man? I have never heard of this family." Huo Shaoheng intentionally or unintentionally took out his mobile phone and dialed a few keys to connect with Zhao Liangze.
"People who don't know them have no idea how rich they are." Xie Dezhao is not particularly envious, because he is from the Xie family and has confidence. "And they are very low-key and never show off their wealth. Besides, the Gu family is very small, and they don't even have any relatives. , he and his two younger sisters are not pushy people."
"Gu Xiangwen has a sister?" Huo Shaoheng's voice rose a little higher, "Besides Gu Tian, is there another sister?"
"Well, it seems to be called Gu Jing." Xie Dezhao thought about it carefully, "The two sisters had a very good relationship, but unfortunately they didn't live long. I heard that Gu Tian passed away a few years ago, and she also passed away."
"... Didn't you say you haven't contacted Gu Xiangwen for more than 20 years? How did you know that his other sister passed away?" Huo Shaoheng caught this loophole very keenly.
Xie Dezhao glanced at Huo Shaoheng strangely, "I said he is very famous. He often publishes academic articles in first-class international professional journals, and he is also very handsome. He is more handsome than many celebrities, but he specializes in academia. Knowledge. But he is too dishonest and has a bad character. Although I have not contacted him and his family has moved away from Europe, I can still see his articles in journals often, that's all. He is another The news of my sister's death came from the fact that after Gu Tian passed away, he wrote a letter to Gu Tian and sent it to me for me to burn it to her in front of Gu Tian's tomb."
"...Have you read that letter?"
"Of course I did." Xie Dezhao shrugged, "His letter said I could read it."
"What about the letter?"
"Burn it, burn it in front of Gu Tian's tomb." Xie Dezhao said sternly, "I'm not Gu Xiangwen's unfaithful person. I will burn it when I say it, and I will never keep it."
Huo Shaoheng glanced at Xie Dezhao speechlessly, lowered his head and drank a few more sips of coffee, then stood up and said: "Mr. Please help me."
Xie Dezhao suddenly realized at this moment: "So you asked me for an interview because of the news about Gu Xiangwen?!"
"Yes." Huo Shaoheng did not deny it. He picked up the coat from the hanger and put it on. "This matter is very important to us. I hope you can cooperate."
"Definitely." Xie Dezhao looked at Huo Shaoheng in confusion, "What did this guy who broke his word do? Did he break the law and was arrested? You see, he stopped sending birthday gifts to Qingying six years ago. , maybe he’ll be caught then…”
Huo Shaoheng curled his lips, but the expression on his face did not change. "I think he is so smart that he would not put himself in a situation where he would break the law. - Well, my time is up."
Huo Shaoheng pushed open the door of the single room and strode out.
As soon as he walked into the lobby of the cafe, he saw Xie Qingying coming up to him and taking the initiative to talk to him: "Major General Huo, have you seen my father?"
Huo Shaoheng looked back and said, "Your father is here."
Xie Dezhao was walking behind Huo Shaoheng. When he saw Xie Qingying coming out on her own initiative, he was a little embarrassed and said, "Major General Huo, Qingying is also worried about me..."
Huo Shaoheng nodded, "It doesn't matter. This is a private interview, no records will be kept, and it's not that strict. If you still need it, please ask Mr. Xie to come to our place."
Xie Qingying walked up to Xie Dezhao, held his arm, and asked nervously: "Major General Huo, my father has always been law-abiding and has never done anything bad."
Xie Dezhao: "..."
The curve of Huo Shaoheng's lips widened a little, and a smile flashed across his handsome face. "Miss Xie, your father is fine. I just asked him for some information."
"Ah? It's true... I've been worried all night!" Xie Qingying was so grateful, "It's okay, it's okay!"
The father and daughter also smiled knowingly at Huo Shaoheng.
Miao Yunxiao and Xu Piaohong happened to open the door and arrived at this cafe. Huo Shaoheng, Xie Qingying and Xie Dezhao were standing in the aisle. They were so eye-catching that they saw them at a glance.
Miao Yunxiao glanced at Huo Shaoheng in surprise and recognized him as the man who had gone to school to find Gu Nianzhi.
Then who is the beautiful woman opposite him
And they seemed to have a good relationship, the three of them were smiling face to face.
Xu Piaohong also saw it, and her face looked a little ugly.
She thought for a moment and walked over to say hello to Huo Shaoheng: "Master Huo, I didn't expect to see you here."
Huo Shaoheng turned around to see her and nodded, "Miss Xu." Then he turned to Xie Qingying and Xie Dezhao and said, "I'm bothering you two today. I'll treat you to dinner when I have the chance."
Although he was anxious to go back to the headquarters to check the information Xie Dezhao said, he still had a leisurely attitude in front of others and left the cafe calmly. Miao Yunxiao watched this scene with wide eyes and was extremely excited.
She tugged at the corner of Xu Piaohong's clothes and nuzzled in Xie Qingying's direction, "Who is that person?"
Xu Piaohong knew about Xie Qingying from Admiral Ji and had seen her photos. Now when she saw her in person, she found that she was even more beautiful than the photos, and she looked a bit like Gu Nianzhi...
Xu Piaohong whispered: "That's Chairman Long's relative. Let's go say hello."
"Ah?! Is it Speaker Long of the Upper House of Parliament?!" Miao Yunxiao let out a short exclamation, "Cousin, you are actually familiar with them!"
This is far beyond the level of Xu Piaohong's family.
Miao Yunxiao became even more nervous and didn't even know where to put his hands.
"What's the point? Admiral Ji's wife treats me like her own daughter and often takes me out to play. I've also been to Chairman Long's house." Xu Piaohong said disapprovingly, walked to Xie Qingying and greeted with a smile, "Miss Xie, so skillful?"
Xie Qingying glanced at Xu Piaohong, her face looked familiar, but she couldn't remember her name, so she had to say politely: "It's a coincidence that you are also here to drink coffee? Then we won't disturb her."
"Were you just... drinking coffee with Mr. Huo?" Xu Piaohong endured it again and again, but still couldn't hold it back and asked.
Xie Qingying smiled at her, did not answer the question, took Xie Dezhao's arm and said, "Dad, it's getting late, let's go back."
"Well, let's go." Xie Dezhao nodded to Xu Piaohong and Miao Yunxiao, and took his daughter out.
Miao Yunxiao and Xu Piaohong sat down in the cafe, ordered coffee and waffles, and chatted while eating.
Miao Yunxiao said with twinkling eyes: "...Who is the man that Miss Xie and her father met? Is he also in the army?"
Xu Piaohong said angrily: "That is the youngest major general in our country. Where are you looking?"
"Major General?!" Miao Yunxiao gasped, "Isn't that higher than my uncle's military rank?! But he looks like he is 30 years old?"
"...So he is the youngest major general!" Xu Piaohong rested her chin on the coffee table with her hands, the look on her face could be described as dreamy.
"Cousin, when you talk about him, you are so sweet!" Miao Yunxiao smiled and shaved his face, shying her, "If you like him, go for it! I think my uncle will definitely agree."
"More than just agreeing?" Xu Piaohong blushed, "Admiral Ji and his wife said they would organize an organization to act as a matchmaker between me and Mr. Huo..."
"Ah?! Really?! That's great!" Miao Yunxiao was so happy that she almost jumped up. She was happier than finding a boyfriend herself.
"Shh! Don't make such a fuss, you haven't even written your horoscope yet." Xu Piaohong hurriedly reached out to cover her mouth, "Don't be such a big talker. If you let me know, I won't be able to spare you!"
"Yeah, I promise I won't say it now." Miao Yunxiao said with a smile, "But if you succeed, you can't let me tell you, right?"
"I can't beat you, my barrister!" Xu Piaohong pushed her muffin to Miao Yunxiao in a good mood.
"But why did Miss Xie just come to see Major General Huo with her father? It looked weird, as if she was meeting the parents..." Miao Yunxiao thought of the situation just now and stuck out her tongue playfully. For some reason, her heart welled up. A burst of pleasure.
