I sell time in the world - Chapter 81
c81 Who is that man?
between words.
Kong Hui extended the wine glass in his hand to Lin Feng.
Seeing the red wine glass in his hand touch Kong Hui lightly.
“You’re welcome.”
“Mr. Kong and I are just doing fair transactions.”
Looking at Lin Feng’s expression, Kong Hui’s heart was full of sighs.
Lin Feng’s calm and easy-going attitude made even him feel ashamed.
But it’s not surprising that Kong Hui thought of Lin Feng’s ability.
At this time.
A burst of footsteps suddenly sounded, approaching them from far away.
Kong Hui raised his eyebrows and turned his head to look over.
Lin Feng also looked and saw that it was Li Hang and Xu Qin from Jiahang Group.
When he came to Lin Feng’s side, Li Hang’s words were also full of respect.
“Mr. Lin Feng, what a coincidence.”
Xu Qin squatted down slightly, not caring about the height of the drum in front of him, temporarily in front of Lin Feng’s eyes.
“Mr. Lin Feng.”
Lin Feng nodded and said.
“It’s quite a coincidence.
It has only been three minutes since I came to this cocktail party.
Kong Hui, the executive chairman of the Kong Group, and Li Hang and Xu Qin of the Jiahang Group all came to his side.
The people who had been paying attention to Kong Hui saw this scene, their faces were full of surprise.
Whispered discussions also followed.
“Who is that man?”
“I don’t know either.”
Just as Li Hang was about to say hello to Kong Hui, another set of footsteps sounded from behind.
I saw Lu Xing, also wearing a suit, walking towards Lin Feng.
“Kong Hui went to say hello in person, and Li Hang, the chairman of Jiahang Group, went straight to him as soon as he entered the reception.”
“And when you look at him, he obviously doesn’t have a flattering expression like ours.”
“Why do I feel that Kong Hui and Li Hang are flattering him?”
“Kong Hui is Kong Jianquan’s eldest son. He has really rebelled against Tiangang.”
Before they could react.
Another middle-aged man in a suit walked in.
The eyes of several people attending the reception lit up and they quickly said hello.
“Mr. Lu, are you here too?”
“Mr. Lu, I am the manager of Jiaming Real Estate. Can I spare you two minutes to chat?”
“.”
Lu Xing looked at the person in front of him and asked inquiringly.
“Jiaming Real Estate? Is this the Jiaming Real Estate that recently won the bid?”
“What? You took the bid away from me, and now you find out that the price won’t go down at all?”
The man’s face was full of embarrassment and he said.
“Mr. Lu, let’s sit down and have a chat?”
Lu Xing hesitated for a few seconds and was about to nod in response.
But he found Lin Feng’s figure standing not far away.
Lu Xing refused without hesitation.
“Let’s talk about it when we have a chance.”
“I’m busy right now, sorry.”
Without waiting for the man to speak, Lu Xing left directly and walked towards Lin Feng.
Seeing this scene, everyone was dumbfounded.
Why are all the prominent figures in Nandu looking for that young man?
Who is that young man?
The hearts of these people are filled with deep doubts.
Arriving next to Lin Feng, Lu Xing shouted respectfully.
“Mr. Lin Feng, I didn’t expect that.”
Before Lu Xing finished speaking, Kong Hui beside him jokingly took over his words.
“What a coincidence?”
Li Hang and Xu Qin couldn’t help but smile lightly.
He and Kong Hui had known each other for a long time, so Lu Xing didn’t care.
“Yeah, what a coincidence.”
Kong Hui explained.
“If you count from me, Mr. Lin Feng has listened to it three times.”
When Lu Xing heard this, he touched the tip of his nose in embarrassment.
After a few people clinked their glasses and took a sip.
Lu Xing looked at Lin Feng and asked inquiringly.
“Mr. Lin Feng, are you here for that supercomputer?”
After listening to Lu Xing’s words, Kong Hui and Li Hang both looked at Lin Feng.
They really didn’t know the purpose of Lin Feng coming here.
However, if he could help Lin Feng within his own ability.
That will definitely leave a good impression on Lin Feng
Feeling their gazes, Lin Feng said without any concealment.
“Yes.”
Lu Xing immediately nodded understandingly.
Previously at the Artificial Intelligence Expo, Lu Xing discovered that Lin Feng was interested in Wu Shan, who was in charge of artificial intelligence.
Otherwise, he really couldn’t guess what Lin Feng was thinking.
Make friends with the rich and powerful in Nandu or other cities?
With Lin Feng’s ability, as long as he wanted to, what rich and powerful person could he want to meet that he couldn’t?
Kong Hui and Xuanyuan also glanced at each other subconsciously.
Ding~ding~
At this time, several crisp bells were pressed, and the entire cocktail party on the top floor rang.
Lin Feng looked around and saw a host holding a microphone and walking onto the support stage.
The host smiled.
“Everyone, as entrusted by Chairman Mao Taimao, I will host this cocktail reception and auction ceremony.”
“I believe everyone already knows what items are being auctioned in this auction ceremony.”
“It is Tianhe-2, the second-ranked supercomputer in the country!”
“With Chairman Mao’s authorization, all proceeds from the Tianhe-2 auction will be donated to the Children’s Charity Aid Foundation.”
“Let us applaud Chairman Mao on behalf of all children!”
Suddenly, bursts of loud applause sounded throughout the entire top floor.
In front of the platform, a man who looked about forty or fifty years old slowly stood up.
He nodded to the applauding crowd behind him.
Looking at Mao Tai’s humble smile, Li Hang said with some admiration in his words.
“Mao Tai is quite courageous.”
“A supercomputer worth more than a billion dollars was auctioned when it was said to be auctioned.”
“And donate directly to the relief fund?”
Lu Xing next to him shook his head and said.
“It’s just the left hand and the right hand, just for the media and ordinary people to see.”
“How many people who can reach this position are good people?”
Kong Hui smiled with deep understanding. As the eldest son of Kong Jianquan, he naturally knew best about such things.
The words in his mouth became slightly softer and he said.
“The development direction of Maotai’s technology company was originally in the direction of artificial technology.”
“But for some unknown reason, all their shareholders held a shareholders’ meeting and the general development direction was rejected.”
“If they want to be in power, they need to build momentum.”
“Even if they knew the Tianhe-2 auction would be a loss, they still had to go ahead.”
“The cost to the company is too great”
“So… you understand.”
Lu Xing and Li Hang were both a little surprised when they heard Kong Hui’s words.
Lin Feng’s face was full of calm, and he even raised his hand to take a sip of the red wine in his hand.
The auction ceremony has already begun.
“A billion?”
“Is there any higher than a billion?”
“Mr. Wang of the White Horse Group bids 1.1 billion.”
“Houde Technology offers 1.2 billion?”
“Two billion?”
“Is it higher than 1.2 billion?”
“.”
The host saw that no one raised their hands at the reception. He felt nervous and couldn’t help but ask again.
“Is there really nothing higher than 1.2 billion?”
Before coming, Mao Tai gave him instructions.
The price of Tianhe-2 must be over 1.5 billion at auction!
You must know that the purchase price of Tianhe-2 is already as high as 1.8 billion!
Plus transportation and other costs
If he only shoots 1.3 billion, his career in this life will be over.
Maybe I will end up being a wedding host.
At this moment, a hand was slowly raised.
“1300000000!”
“The Kong Group bids 1.3 billion!”
Wow~
As the host finished speaking, everyone’s eyes immediately began to search, and finally fell on Kong Hui.
Facing everyone’s gaze, Kong Hui’s face showed no trace of nervousness.
He even raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a confident smile.
The host’s questioning continues.
“1300000000?”
“Is there anyone higher than 1.3 billion?”
“The second-ranked supercomputer in the country, with a peak calculation speed of 549 petaflops per second and a sustained calculation speed of 339 petaflops of double-precision floating point operations per second!”
“Tianhe-2 can be used in many fields such as biomedicine, new materials, engineering design and simulation analysis, weather forecasting, smart cities, e-commerce, cloud computing and big data, digital media and animation design.”
“.”
While the host was reciting the Tianhe-2 supercomputer, one after another’s eyes crossed each other at the reception.
But in the end, they all couldn’t help but shook their heads.
“Everyone, this is the first time in 1.3 billion!”
“One billion three hundred million for the second time.”
“One billion three hundred million for the third time!”
“Congratulations to the Kong Group for winning the Tianhe-2 supercomputer for 1.3 billion!”
As the host finished speaking, he pressed the auction bell bitterly.
“I would like to ask our CEO of Kong Group, Kong Hui, to give a speech.”
Amid a burst of stares and applause, Kong Hui said respectfully to Lin Feng.
“Mr. Lin Feng, please wait for me for a moment. I’ll be back soon.”
Lin Feng replied.
“good!”
Seeing Kong Hui walking towards the hosting platform in front, Li Hang and Lu Xing’s faces were full of envy.
The Kong Group is involved in many industries, but it has made few achievements in technology.
Of course they understood why Kong Hui took the photo of Tianhe-2.
Naturally, this Tianhe No. 2 was given to Lin Feng!
That is to say, their current value is too weak for them.
Otherwise, the two of them also wanted to show off in front of Lin Feng.
It wasn’t until a few minutes later that Kong Hui came back.
However, there was a middle-aged man beside him.
Before he reached Lin Feng, Kong Hui cast a questioning look at Lin Feng.
Seeing that Lin Feng didn’t object at all, he took the middle-aged man over.
Kong Hui took the lead in introducing Lin Feng.
“Mr. Lin Feng, this is Mao Tai, the chairman of Weilan Technology.”
Lin Feng’s brows raised slightly.
Azure Technology?
Isn’t it the company Wu Shan worked for before?
“Chairman Mao, this is Mr. Lin Feng!”
“He is a distinguished guest of our Kong family.”
Listening to Kong Hui’s words, Mao Tai felt surprised.
If he was a distinguished guest of the Kong Group, he might not say much.
However, what Kong Hui was talking about was the Kong family!
The nature of this is completely different.
Mao Tai smiled slightly, stretched out his right hand politely, and said.
“Hello, Mr. Lin Feng.”
Lin Feng nodded, stretched out his hand and gently shook Mao Tai’s hand.
“Chairman Mao.”
Kong Hui explained as he watched Lin Feng shaking hands with Mao Tai.
“Mr. Lin Feng, I took this photo of Tianhe-2 for you.”
“I hope you don’t mind that I didn’t explain it to you in advance.”
Mao Tai looked at Lin Feng in surprise.
The Tianhe-2 that Kong Hui spent 1.3 billion to take was actually given to Lin Feng in front of him?
That’s not 130,000, it’s 1.3 billion!
Who is Lin Feng in front of me?
Lin Feng nodded and said calmly.
“Thank you Mr. Kong, I will help Mr. Kong record the corresponding membership points!”
Kong Hui’s eyes lit up and he said quickly.
“Thank you Mr. Lin Feng.”
Li Hang and Lu Xing next to them had eyes full of envy.
After shaking hands, Mao Tai asked curiously.
“Mr. Lin Feng is young and promising. I wonder what industry he is in?”
“If there is a chance, we can work together.”
Lin Feng said bluntly.
“I’m a time merchant.”
Kong Hui, Lu, Li Hang and others didn’t say anything, they just listened silently.
But.
In their hearts, they are already tacitly looking forward to the next sentence.
“You don’t have much time!”
