Spokesperson of the Hong Kong Comprehensive Police Force

Chapter 638: Long-awaited Achievement Reward

The 21st century is the era of science and technology information.

Zhou Quan also strongly agrees with the view put forward by Guan Youbo.

After all, he has the ability to foresee the future and naturally understands the importance of information technology.

"Bo Zai, I need you to secretly set up an offshore company and, through cross-holding, to make a deeper layout in the high-tech industry."

Taking a sip of tea, Zhou Quan stared at Guan Youbo solemnly.

The reason for doing so is naturally for the sake of confidentiality, which is related to Zhou Quan's plan.

“Especially, the physical hardware aspect!”

Having said that, Zhou Quan paused for a moment, and then he pushed a piece of information that had been prepared on the coffee table in front of Guan Youbo.

Guan Youbo quickly put down the teacup in his hand, picked up the document and looked at it carefully.

Since Zhou Quan was promoted to Assistant Commissioner of Police, he has not heard any good news about the Life Achievement System for several years.

Until some time ago, when he took the position of DCP of National Security in the police force, the will of the earth once again favored Sir Quan and awarded him a new life achievement award.

[It is detected that the player's achievement progress has been accumulated. Congratulations on receiving the reward of Communication Giant! ]

As the name suggests, this achievement award enables Zhou Quan to possess world-leading attainments in communication technology, communication networks and other related fields.

When Zhou Quan was promoted to Chief Inspector of the Police Force, he received an achievement award as an information expert.

Today, the National Security Bureau’s internal independent network, and even TUI’s intelligence operations, are all developed based on Zhou Quan’s achievement reward.

The achievement award for information experts is actually closely related to these fields, but it is more inclined towards technology and software.

Today's communications giants include both software and hardware technologies.

On the surface, this new achievement reward is insignificant to Zhou Quan.

But in reality, the communications giant bestowed by the will of the Earth is very much in line with Zhou Quan's wishes and comes at the right time.

At the police force's full management meeting held on a working day this week, Cai Yuanqi had already taken the position of deputy commissioner of police.

Even though Zhou Quan had enough confidence that he could suppress Cai Yuanqi firmly.

But even so, necessary precautions are still indispensable.

You know, the key to Cai Yuanqi's ability to trigger Operation Cold War in the future lies in his control over the police force's next-generation communications system.

With the development of the times, the communication system currently used by the police force will eventually enter the stage of upgrading.

At that time, who knows whether Cai Yuanqi will make some plans?

Relying on the ability of Guan Youbo, the financial steward, the Zhou Foundation holds shares in many high-tech companies.

With such an innate advantage and a God's perspective, how could Zhou Quan not make some arrangements in advance?

At this time, the favor of the Earth's will is truly timely.

Sir Quan's early move can completely put an end to any possibility that Cai Yuanqi could pose a threat to the police force and even the stability of Hong Kong Island.

Taking precautions before problems arise has always been Sir Quan's style of using his foresight.

Just like Fang Xinwu who is gradually emerging in the Golden Triangle region today.

The information in Guan Youbo's hand right now is a layout document written by Zhou Quan based on his own abilities.

"Boss, I can prepare all the things you asked for."

After carefully reading the document, Guan Youbo said with a wry smile: "But I'm afraid I'm not qualified to be the helmsman of this communications company, or the R&D institute!" In terms of financial investment and company operations, Guan Youbo is a well-deserved elite talent.

However, the boss of our company highlighted one thing in this document.

That is to establish a research and development institute closely related to communication systems based on the resources currently available to the Zhou Foundation.

This is beyond Guan Youbo's ability.

Even though he boasted that he had a strong learning ability, this was not something he could achieve by studying further right now.

"You will be responsible for the operation of this new company and the helmsman of the research institute. I have a candidate in mind."

Leaning back slowly on the reception sofa, Zhou Quan smiled with a relaxed look.

"Bo Zai, what do you think of Mr. Ni, the chief engineer who was kicked out of Lenovo Group two years ago?"

When it comes to the level of trust, Zhou Quan naturally had no hesitation towards the financial steward in front of him.

However, everyone has their own expertise, and Guan Youbo is obviously not suitable to be the R&D director of this offshore company.

In terms of company operations, Zhou Quan undoubtedly still intends to hand over the helm to Guan Youbo.

But in terms of research and development, he has someone more suitable in mind.

"Boss, are you talking about Mr. Ni, one of the first academicians of the Mainland Academy of Engineering?"

Guan Youbo thought about it for a moment, and a gleam of light flashed in the depths of his eyes.

"I have followed Mr. Ni's movements. After he was kicked out of the board of directors of Lenovo Group in mainland China two years ago, he joined Ark Technology Company."

"This enabled the mainland to produce the first embedded chip, Ark One."

"However, there are big problems with Ark Technology's business strategy, and the conflict between Mr. Ni and Ark Technology has been intensifying recently."

"If we recruit Mr. Ni to lead the R&D institute, this idea may not be impossible to achieve."

"Moreover, Mr. Ni has high attainments in the field of information engineering and is indeed a suitable candidate."

Chief Engineer Ni can be considered as half a Hong Konger. He was born in Hong Kong Island and his father is a senior member of the board of directors of Guangdong Bank in Hong Kong Island.

However, he later returned to the mainland with his family.

As one of the first academicians of the Chinese Academy of Engineering in his hometown, Chief Engineer Ni is definitely a well-deserved technology giant.

Most importantly, chip manufacturing is also closely related to the field of information engineering.

Since Sir Quan has made his plans in advance, it is impossible for him to only consider the short-term gains and losses. Long-term development is the most important to him.

Anyway, in Zhou Quan’s plan, the research institute does not involve profit.

As long as there are results, Zhou Quan can invest regardless of the cost.

After all, he has a wealthy family to support him.

The Zhou Foundation, which holds shares in many of the world's high-tech companies, is growing exponentially every year.

Zhou Quan's own assets are average, but his wife, Au Wing-yan, is definitely one of the richest people in Hong Kong Island.

On the other hand, the Zhou Foundation's expenditures, apart from the expenses for normal operations, are only for police officers and welfare construction in his hometown.

What's more, the research institute is just a part of Zhou Quan's layout in the communications and information industry.

When it comes to profitable operations, Guan Youbo and the team he has assembled are naturally capable of handling everything.
