"Next, we need to think about how to deal with Griffin Jones..."
Luo Hongyun left with the conditions proposed by Xia Xu, while the latter fell into deep thought.
In the end, he chose to stick with the original plan.
Various press releases praising him continued to be broadcast, and although the popularity was affected by the incident with him and the werewolf, it was precisely because of this incident that Griffin Jones received even more attention.
You have to know that Xia Xu's image in the public eye is not ordinary at the moment.
The only academic master in history who achieved full marks purely on test paper, and a talented entrepreneur.
The side that was revealed yesterday was even more mysterious. He controlled robots to fight werewolves, had amazing swordsmanship, and had a pet dog that was scarier than a werewolf.
All these things undoubtedly add a layer of mystery to it, which makes people talk about it with relish and explore it tirelessly.
Although there are still many doubts about the latter on the Internet, what if they are true
Assuming that all this is real, it is tantamount to uncovering a mysterious world that ordinary people have never touched.
Do werewolves exist in this world
Are there martial arts masters in this world
Is there a magical dog in this world whose fighting power far exceeds that of lions and tigers
Has the technology in this world actually developed combat robots
If all this is true, then how many bizarre and beautiful sides of this world are hidden
Some people don't believe it, and naturally there are people who do. Amid controversy from multiple parties, the entire incident continues to ferment. Even though special departments intentionally suppressed it, it still dominated the hot searches and headlines of various media.
At this time, how could people forget the related news that happened just the day before
Griffin Jones, the founder of Tianshen Investment, hired a killer in an attempt to kill Xia Xu, a talented entrepreneur from his country!
Some people only look at the results and laugh at Griffin Jones' clownish behavior, some hold conspiracy theories and doubt whether Griffin Jones is also a "special person" like Xia Xu, and there are also haters and lickers.
But no matter what, Griffin Jones was forced into a more prominent spotlight because of this incident.
And compared to Xia Xu, under the press releases that Xia Xu deliberately arranged, some of his shining points were obviously much more glaring in the eyes of those who were interested.
Xia Xu knew the risks and hidden dangers of the super brain potion and did not dare to use it indiscriminately, but Griffin Jones did not know this, so naturally he had no scruples.
Griffin Jones learned a lot of professional skills with the help of the super brain potion, and once he came to power, he was very keen to show himself and attract everyone's attention.
To describe it in a more popular way, the protagonists in various movies, TV shows, novels, etc. cannot avoid being "pretentious".
A Loser who was uneducated and unskilled suddenly transformed into a super genius who had learned multiple professional skills in just a few months, and was doing well in investment and the stock market. Before all this started, he was working near the square where the products of the super brain project were handed over
The super brain potion must be in this kid's hands!
…
In the following week, the entire incident transitioned from continued fermentation to gradual calming down.
The Internet has memory, but this memory is time-limited. No matter how explosive the news is, even a big melon like the "Xuanxun" scandal, no one will care about it for long.
People have their own lives to live, and their attention is always captured by the endless stream of hot topics.
The special department obviously took a cold approach to the werewolf matter. It did not come forward to confirm it, but it did not deny it either. It just allowed it to spread freely as a normal topic.
However, since false rumors are so common on the Internet, most people who have not experienced it are still skeptical. Therefore, it is unlikely to cause any earth-shaking shock. The heat of the incident is gradually dying down, and I think after some time it will become an ordinary curiosity.
During this week, the game between Xia Xu and the special department reached the end of the tug-of-war.
After many rounds of negotiations, consensus was first reached on the Xinyuan Building issue.
It is naturally impossible to directly donate the entire Xinyuan Building, but in the end the special department agreed to lease the Xinyuan Building to Xinghai Biotechnology with ten years of rent-free. After ten years, Xinghai Biomedicine can invest in purchasing the building based on market prices.
This is actually no different from half-selling and half-giving away. The rent is free for ten years, and it is unclear whether Xinghai Biology will still need this building after ten years. Xia Xu is also confident that by then the billions will be just a drop in the bucket for him.
After all, this condition is just to make both parties feel better psychologically and save face, and each side has to make concessions.
This was exactly what Xia Xu expected. As Zhou Shuren said, Chinese people have always liked moderation. If you want to open a window, you need to first propose to lift the roof off.
Moreover, these repeated concessions were nominally made for the sake of Luo Hongyun's intervention. Even if both parties knew the truth, the face and credit would still go to Uncle Luo.
As for the other two conditions, the special department naturally agreed to find a surgeon readily, but after looking at several people, they all only had three stars, not even a four-star one. Xia Xu was naturally dissatisfied, so there was no progress for the time being.
As for the military-industrial qualities of Xinghai Biology and Xinghai Industry, even the special departments cannot make a direct conclusion on this, and no definite news can be given for the time being. According to the gossip given by Uncle Luo, it is still under negotiation among multiple parties.
However, during this week, Xinghai Biomedicine has completed the early stocking and advertising. The new controlled-release antihypertensive drug was given the trade name Xing An Ning and was officially distributed through various channels.
There are gains and losses when it comes to exposure to popularity. Coincidentally, when Xia Xu was becoming a hot topic, Xing An Ning, as the first new drug launched by his pharmaceutical company, naturally also borrowed from his personal popularity.
Whether it was to join in the fun or to see him make a fool of himself, Xing An Ning attracted a lot of attention during its first day of promotion. The new drug, which originally needed to slowly accumulate word of mouth, became an instant hit.
Of course, this is also inseparable from the excellent effectiveness of the new antihypertensive drug itself. The drug ingredients are much better than similar competing products currently on the market, and the existence of controlled-release technology has dealt a dimensionality reduction blow to similar drugs.
Even if this incident had not happened, it was only a matter of time before Xing An Ning became popular after a period of advertising and word-of-mouth accumulation.
Originally, most people who bought the medicine just followed the crowd because of the popularity, but they never expected that the effect of the medicine was far better than they imagined.
This not only disappointed those who hoped to see Xia Xu's downfall, but also brought him another wave of fame. The grateful remarks of countless people once again confirmed his "genius" personality.
"The target has returned home, no abnormalities so far."
On this day, Xia Xu, who was personally in charge of Xinghai Biomedicine to prevent chaos from happening, received a message.
Well, looking at the childish wording, there is no doubt that it must have come from Yang Bowen, Meng Bochao and the others.
Although the police tried their best, due to insufficient evidence, Griffin Jones was finally cleared of suspicion and returned to freedom on this day.
The sea is wide enough for fish to leap, the sky is high enough for birds to fly. After being detained for several days, when he was released from the police station, he was more than just in high spirits.
"Follow the original plan, keep an eye on the progress, and don't let anything go wrong."
After replying a message to Yang Bowen, Xia Xu temporarily put aside the company's affairs, re-examined his own combat equipment, and prepared for the worst.
However, he did not go out immediately. His popularity had not completely dissipated yet. It might be okay if he was dressed normally, but going out fully armed, especially Atuo's unique look with the equipment on his back, was too eye-catching.
There should still be room for maneuver in the matter of Griffin Jones and the super brain potion. He also made some small arrangements. It is not the time to fight yet, and it would be unwise to expose himself actively.
