After rebirth, I rejected the school beauty and Qingmei

Chapter 247 Don’t worry, I’ll give you a hug

Compared with the lively and prosperous urban areas, there are no rows of modern buildings in the suburbs of London. There are only manor villas scattered among the shrubs and forests. If no outsiders come, these places will appear particularly peaceful and quiet.Along the winding path, Chen Yu, who was sitting in the car, saw only a few children playing and running in the forest gardens on both sides, and young elk leaping across the shallow stream. The two sides did not disturb each other.It wasn't until the car reached the end of a forest road that Chen Yu saw a hidden manor. It seemed that this was the residence of Sir Peter Kerstein.

Chen Yu opened the door and got out of the car, then supported Xia Naitang, who was pregnant, and led the way with the middle-aged housekeeper wearing a vest and suit. In the villa, in the hall, an old man in his 80s or [-]s was talking to several young people in suits and ties. Chen Yu and Xia Naitang stood aside and could feel the old man's talkativeness and friendliness.

Not long after, the old man finished talking to several young people, and the latter bowed to leave. The middle-aged housekeeper came forward to greet him, whispered something in his ear, and pointed to Chen Yu and Xia Naitang, named Peter. The old man Kirstan looked at them for a while and nodded with a smile.

Chen Yu and Xia Naitang respected this pioneer in the computer industry very much. Sitting on the European-style sofa, the three of them gradually started talking. Although Kirstein was old, his interest in computer research and development had never been greater than before. extinguished.He even read all the papers co-authored by Chen Yu and Xia Naitang, and provided quite profound insights. While the two sides were chatting and laughing, they slowly got to the point.

"Professor Kirstein, in addition to visiting you and discussing cutting-edge topics in the computer field, my husband and I have another purpose here. My husband and I have established a company to better promote the development of computer science. The institute is called 'S&T', which is also to explore the truth and touch the boundaries of human cognition. However, due to some historical, ethnic or other factors, many scholars with European and American backgrounds, after receiving our invitation, even if they have the will , and dare not join rashly for fear of being criticized by public opinion, so we hope you can join 'S&T' and endorse scholars who are determined to change the world." Xia Naitang did not beat around the bush, an old-timer like Kirstein, I have always liked to communicate efficiently, be straightforward, and get to the point.

Kirstein smiled, did not agree or refuse, took a sip of English milk tea, and then said: "Ms. Xia, Mr. Chen, I have never opposed the commercialization of computer technology and commercial companies doing scientific research, and I have even spared no effort to do so. Support. But so far, whether it is Google or Microsoft, these giants have invested a lot of resources. It is difficult to succeed in one of the ten research projects. If you want to commercialize academic results, the probability is even one in a hundred or one in a thousand. This also means that a lot of investment by commercial companies will be in vain. Can your company really endure the billions of pounds of funds invested in scientific research projects in the future, but cannot be converted into results?”

"Of course, Professor Kirstein, Toffee Network will invest more than 50% of its net profits every year in scientific research. 'S&T' stands for science and truth, and only considers the exploration of science and truth. This spirit of exploration can only be achieved as long as Toffee Network will not change even if it exists for a day, right?" Xia Naitang finally turned to look at Chen Yu and asked seriously.

Chen Yu nodded and said with a smile: "Yes. Professor Kirstein, I can guarantee that 'S&T' is an independent kingdom. The Toffee Network will only provide blood transfusions and all resources including funds. No Forcing any scientific research output. I also firmly believe that only free thought can achieve academic prosperity, and utilitarian research cannot produce great results. Therefore, researchers of 'S&T', even if they have ten or twenty years , will not be able to produce a single result in their lifetime, and we will also protect their treatment."

Professor Kirstein looked at Chen Yu with admiration, and then nodded with satisfaction: "Mr. Chen, you are the businessman I have seen who views academic research with the most disciplined approach. If we can establish such a research institute , I am naturally willing to do my best to help you."

Chen Yu and Xia Naitang were both happy. They didn't expect Mr. Kirstein to agree so easily.

"However, there is a condition for me personally to join 'S&T'."

"You say."

"Although I have the intention to make some contribution, I am already 76 this year, and I have more than enough ambition but not enough energy. Even if I join you, I can only hold an honorary position."

Xia Naitang breathed a sigh of relief: "Of course. Professor Kirstein, what do you think of the position of honorary dean?"

"I'm very happy." Kirstein thought for a while and then said with a smile.

……

In country M, in a building on Wall Street, Barry Rogers stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with one hand in his pocket, staring at the rows of buildings in the distance. The middle-aged man was talking to someone on the phone with a serious look on his face. After the big boss of Sugar Network had arrived in Europe, a cunning color flashed in his eyes. After hanging up the phone, he thought about it and made a few more calls.

In an instant, Rogers Fund, a huge financial machine, began to operate rapidly. It represented the will of Wall Street.

You want to be an independent corporate kingdom, are you kidding me?
In this world, private business giants that are free from the control of Wall Street capital are not allowed to exist!
A few hours later, a London police station received an executive order from Buckingham Palace:
Chen Yu's Internet company, the intelligent recommendation algorithm used by Toffee Network, is suspected of stealing the core technology of country M. According to the relevant agreement signed by the two countries, Great Britain needs to unconditionally cooperate with country M and safeguard the intellectual property rights of country M... According to According to the clues from MI6, Chen Yu is currently in a villa in the suburbs of London. Arrest him as soon as possible and extradite him to Country M!
Sunset westward.

The police car was dispatched and headed towards the Kirstein family estate on the outskirts of London.

The piercing sirens kept ringing along the winding forest path. The children and young deer in the forest pricked up their ears. After the sirens gradually approached and saw a row of police cars approaching, the two groups They dispersed in unison.

The police car finally stopped at the door of Kirstein Manor. A middle-aged male policeman named Joseph got out of the car and looked up at the sky for a long time. The night sky was already filled with star clouds. He finally turned his head angrily and looked at the blond woman next to him. The policeman complained: "The M guys just like to use us as gunmen. Their CIA has already infiltrated Great Britain into a sieve. Instead of doing it themselves, they let us do things that offend people, drive away tigers and devour wolves, and reap the benefits." , so fucking disgusting!”

The blonde policewoman shrugged, then smiled and said to her handsome colleague: "Joseph, this is not something we can consider. Go to the manor first and bring the guy named Chen Yu back to the police station. The rest of the matter will be with us. It’s irrelevant.”

Joseph Lee, a Chinese deputy police chief with an oriental face, nodded helplessly: "Okay, wait until I finish smoking this cigarette."

The blonde policewoman looked at him blankly, then she saw Joseph take out a red cigarette box from his pocket, took out a cigarette, blocked the wind with his hand, lit it with a lighter, took a deep breath, and swallowed fog.

The blonde policewoman frowned. She didn't want to waste time, so she waved her hand, and the police officers immediately broke in and broke into the manor.

Joseph looked at the figures of these white people and couldn't help but curl his lips slightly.

You guys, please take your time to find...

He walked toward the woods nearby and sent a message to a mysterious number. The content was not in English or Chinese characters, but a string of multiple-encrypted symbols similar to Morse code.

ten minutes later.

The blonde policewoman returned disappointed, cursing: "Damn guy, he's really not here!"

Joseph Li, who returned to the police car, didn't take it seriously: "Didn't you find anyone?"

"Yes. We searched the manor, and after questioning, we found out that Chen Yu and a pregnant woman were sitting in Professor Kirstein's car and left before we set off! Is this what you said before? The golden cicada escapes its shell'? Haha... Those people from MI6 are really useless!"

"The golden cicada escapes from its shell? Is that so... is it possible that there is a ghost among us?"

"A mole? Haha... That's not the case. According to insiders, Chen Yu mentioned that they are going to the city tonight to listen to a classical music concert. We can just rush there now."

"Then let's set off quickly." Joseph Li snickered in his heart, and then he pretended to be serious and said, "Don't let that guy Chen Yu get away!"

……

The Channel Tunnel, a tunnel connecting Great Britain and the European continent, opened on May 1994, 5.

Chen Yu stood in the French port of Calais under the night, looking at the island on the other side, and smiled easily.

Xia Naitang was still frightened. She didn't expect that a trip to London would almost put her man in jail. These foreigners have no bottom line!She went over and took Chen Yu's hand, and lightly opened her red lips: "You should leave Europe and return to your country as soon as possible. It will be dangerous if you stay any longer."

"What about you? Don't you plan to go back with me?" Unlike Xia Naitang, Chen Yu was still relaxed and comfortable, without any fear, and even squeezed her white and tender hands.

"I want to, too. But, I don't have my passport, so I can't go back for the time being."

"Who said you didn't bring your passport?"

"what?"

"When I left Zurich, I secretly took our passports with me in case of emergency."

Chen Yu smiled and took out two passports from his backpack and shook them. Xia Naitang was stunned.

"You already knew you might be in danger? Then why did you come to Europe?"

"Because of you and the baby. How could I let you two stay alone in a foreign country? A family should be reunited, right?"

"Chen Yu..."

"what?"

"Yes, I'm sorry. I shouldn't..." "Okay, don't talk about this, let's go back to China first. Go to Nice Airport." Chen Yu stretched out his hand and held Xia Naitang's delicate face under the moonlight. He looked at her fondly and said, "If you have anything to say, let's talk about it when we get home."

Xia Naitang nodded slightly.

Arriving at Nice Airport, the nearest airport in northern France, there were no direct flights to Jincheng, so Chen Yu chose Feipeng City to go to Guangdong Province.

That is Xia Naitang's hometown.

The baby's grandpa and grandma don't know her existence yet. When I go back this time, I have to face them and explain it clearly to them.

In the European night sky, a passenger plane flew towards Pengcheng, thousands of miles away. The entire flight took about twelve hours.

……

The next day, in the morning.

Professor Peter Korstein officially announced on the Internet social media that he has joined the Toffee Network Research Institute - "S&T" as its honorary president.

Toffee International’s official Twitter account and Natalie’s private account immediately confirmed this statement.

And used this to vigorously promote the concept of "S&T".

For a time, this news caused an uproar in the Internet industry, and public opinion in Europe and the United States was in an uproar!
There were many media outlets that wanted to attack Korstein, but due to his strong influence in the European and American Internet circles, these highly critical news were eventually suppressed.

The result of this incident is that a large number of European and American, especially high-end talents in the European computer field, no longer worry about any pressure from public opinion, and rush to "S&T" like a tide.

Toffee Network, an emerging Chinese Internet company, has instantly become the focus of attention at home and abroad.

"I know that Toffee Network, whose international headquarters is in Zurich, has released many hit games. I originally thought it was a game company, but I didn't expect that it was able to recruit Professor Kirstein as its dean. This is to compete with Microsoft and Google. ?"

"I can't believe it! The Chinese Internet industry, which has always only copied European and American business models, actually has a company that values ​​technological research and development!"

"The most admirable thing is that 'S&T' attaches great importance to basic theoretical research! In addition to computer science, they will also invest a lot of money in mathematics, physics, chemistry... You know, these fields are not only very expensive, but And it may not produce results, and even if it produces results, it may not be commercialized!”

"If this company can persist for ten years, maybe an international technology giant will be born!"

"Toffee Network? Isn't it the parent company of Zhifou? This is too awesome!"

"It's really a Chinese Internet company!"

"Oh my god, we finally have an Internet company that values ​​technological research and development!"

"The boss of Toffee Network is actually a college student who is less than 19 years old! He is tall, handsome, talented, and well-established. I admire him to death! Let me show you the pictures!"

"It's him. Wasn't he the one who was exposed as someone who rides two boats before?"

"Go to hell! Can you please stop talking nonsense? Haven't you watched the recent program "Meet the Boss"? Boss Chen Yu has always had only one girlfriend, and that is his childhood sweetheart Su Xiaoli!"

There were countless posts about Toffee Network and Chen Yu on social media platforms at home and abroad.

But except for a few people closest to Chen Yu, no one knew where he was at the moment.

Many reporters even went to the Toffee Building in Jincheng to block and take pictures. However, they squatted all day and did not see Chen Yu.

In a hotel in Pengcheng.

Chen Yu has been here for two days. As long as he is in the country, he does not have to worry about his own safety and can enjoy the time with Xia Naitang comfortably.

Xia Naitang also enjoyed it, but was also helpless.

Toffee Network and Chen Yu have become so popular recently that even if major platforms including Zhifou.com and Ji Toutiao frantically lowered their hot searches, they still cannot resist the enthusiasm of netizens.In the end, it was only after Chen Yu released the gossip about XY Entertainment's celebrity artists that a lot of firepower was diverted.

The Internet has no memory. In a few days, even if I don’t wear a hat and sunglasses, no one will recognize me, right?

"Toffee..." Chen Yu sat on the edge of the bed, took Xia Naitang into his arms, and gently caressed her belly.

"what?"

"When did you tell your parents that you had returned to China?"

"do not know."

"Then tomorrow. Let's go together." Chen Yu said with a smile, "Now that I'm so good, maybe your parents will agree to us being together?"

"Are you dreaming? There is no way my parents would agree to us being together."

"Not always."

"what?"

Xia Naitang looked at Chen Yu's evil smile and suddenly felt that this guy had done something bad without telling her!

"Nothing. Well, it's getting late, let's go to bed early."

"........."

Xia Naitang bit her red lips, staring at Chen Yu with her almond-shaped eyes, her pretty face flushed: "You are not allowed to mess around!"

"Don't worry, I'll give you a hug."

"fraud!"

"Ah? No, Toffee, how can you not believe me?"

"Hmph! Because you said the same thing last night! Big liar!"

"........."
