The world of politics is tumultuous, and even though America knows that among its allies there may be traitors with ulterior motives, it feels quite helpless. Right now, they still need their help to bolster their influence; if things fall apart, wouldn't that just make them a laughingstock in the eyes of the world?
Buzz, buzz, buzz, Ji Yuan's phone rang in his pocket. He casually answered it and found it was a call from Sun Hong.
"How's it going? Old Ji, surprised?"
"I was almost scared out of my wits!" Ji Yuan replied with a laugh. He had originally thought that the country would at most promote him as an exceptional technician to achieve domestic chip production, but he never expected it would go this far.
It's important to note that every name on that list includes renowned luminaries from the scientific community, just a step away from the Nobel Prize, as well as top experts from national secret departments, considered vital assets of the nation.
Moreover, judging by the situation, it seems the country intends to push him into the spotlight as a figurehead for promotion. If that truly happens, he would indeed be remembered in history!
"Haha, you still don't know how much the leaders appreciate your success in leading the breakthrough in chip technology? This is just the beginning!" Sun Hong laughed and said, "The higher-ups have instructed me..."
"If it weren't for the fear of scaring you, the leader would have summoned you directly!"
"Really?" Ji Yuan asked in surprise.
Although he often saw that leader on the news, being on screen and in reality were completely different matters. Even though he was already somewhat accustomed to it, he still felt a lingering unease in his heart.
"Yes, the higher-ups have ordered that starting today, your security level will be raised by two grades! Even I got a promotion of two levels as well," Sun Hong said cheerfully.
The higher-ups issued a strict order to ensure the personal safety of Ji Yuan, the herald of the revival of this Eastern power. From this moment on, his life and honor would be tied to Ji Yuan.
Ji Yuan nodded, pondering whether he should upgrade Patriot One again later to enhance its defensive capabilities even further.
It's better to rely on oneself; once Patriot One becomes even more formidable, his personal safety would be better guaranteed.
"Yes, the higher-ups instructed that from today until the mass production of the chips begins, you will only be the president of Ark Technology, with extraordinary achievements in the field of smartphone robotics, 'coincidentally' sharing a name with Academician Ji who specializes in chip research... Can you accept this?"
While saying this, Sun Hong felt a bit anxious. Even though he knew Ji Yuan's personality well and that he wasn't someone who cared about fame and fortune, he still couldn't guarantee that Ji Yuan would accept such an arrangement.
Young people love fame, middle-aged people love profit, and elderly people cherish their feathers.
In an atmosphere where "achieving fame early" is emphasized, it is not uncommon for some young scientists, unable to endure the silence, to create disturbances, with some even clashing with the state in serious cases.
Ji Yuan smiled and said, "I am willing to accept the organization's arrangements!"
He is not a novice and has heard about certain matters within the circle.
If it were an ordinary person, from the moment the highest authority decided to appoint a 'National Hero,' all traces of his past would likely be erased to ensure his safety, turning him into an 'ordinary person' indistinguishable in the crowd.
He would remain 'ordinary' until it was time to disclose technological achievements, at which point his name would resurface and become known to the general public.
However, Ji Yuan is not an ordinary person; he is a well-known entrepreneur.
The state only needs to cover up certain aspects of his life for disguise; if they were to portray him as an ordinary person, it would backfire.
When Ji Yuan's name was mentioned by the Spokesperson, many people also thought of him but instinctively dismissed it.
It should be noted that this 'Ji Yuan' is not the same as that 'Ji Yuan.'
After all, Ark Technology has achieved quite a bit over the past year, with various new technologies continuously emerging. Although it may not be as groundbreaking as Patriot One, it certainly stands out in the entire tech industry as a form of Black Technology.
If Ji Yuan can create such a significant impact in the field of chip research under such high-intensity scientific tasks, it would indeed be hard to believe! What’s more critical is that the two areas are completely unrelated! A person's energy is limited; achieving excellent results in one's own field is already challenging enough, let alone completely stepping into an unfamiliar domain and making such substantial progress in a short time.
Of course, their series of speculations cannot be deemed incorrect. Theoretically, without the assistance of the highly intelligent robot 'Black Widow,' Ji Yuan would need at least another three to five years to hope for preliminary completion of the chip industry's technical research and related breakthroughs.
To some extent, a highly intelligent robot provides immense support for scientific research endeavors! Sun Hong said with sore eyes, "I apologize for putting you through this. When the chips are mass-produced, the country will surely announce your glory to the world. We will never shortchange our national heroes..."
