Back at the villa, after dinner, Ji Yuan took out the folder given to him by the Deputy Minister of the National Security Department. It was thick, totaling one hundred and eight pages.
Inside were records of some current technological bottlenecks in the world, and most of the discussion topics for the Global Cutting-Edge Technology Expo would likely be selected from here. Ji Yuan's expression was very serious. He understood very well that the final results of the Global Cutting-Edge Technology Expo would be directly presented to various leaders, indirectly influencing Western policies towards the East and shaping global attitudes towards Eastern powers.
The upper echelons had entrusted the National Fortune of the Eastern power into his hands; any misstep could lead to irreparable consequences.
"Can I really accomplish such a significant task?" Ji Yuan subconsciously tightened his grip on the documents, realizing for the first time that he suddenly felt uncertain.
At this moment, there were only thirteen days left until the Global Cutting-Edge Technology Expo opened!
Ji Yuan had just finished breakfast when an aide rushed in, saying that many soldiers had arrived. When he stepped outside, he saw a dozen fully armed soldiers standing in two neat rows at the entrance.
The leading soldier, with three stripes and four stars embroidered on his shoulder, saluted Ji Yuan and said, "Chief Engineer, it's time to depart."
Ji Yuan nodded, pressed his lips together, and returned the salute, saying, "Please wait a moment; I need to go back and get something."
Taking two steps at a time, Ji Yuan returned to the study to grab his briefcase. After checking it multiple times and finding nothing missing, he finally felt a bit relieved and set off with the security team.
Not far away, on the green lawn, a large military transport plane was parked. The sunlight poured down, giving it an imposing and fierce appearance!
Ji Yuan looked at the plane, unable to suppress a twitch at the corner of his mouth. As he walked forward, he turned to the young officer beside him and said, "Comrade, is it a bit exaggerated to bring out the Y-57 just for this?"
"Call me Xiao Ling or Ling Ziqian; that’s fine. Also, this isn’t our first meeting!" The young officer's voice was deep, almost overly so, but his serious expression softened considerably.
Ji Yuan stared at him for a moment before finally recalling something. He exclaimed in surprise, "Oh, so it's you! But I remember you weren't at this level last time we met."
As he spoke, he glanced at the insignia on the officer's shoulder, unable to hide his curiosity. Could it be that red descendants rise through the ranks this quickly?
"Ahem, I recently completed a mission and made significant contributions to the country!"
Ji Yuan wisely chose not to pry further and nodded, allowing him to gloss over the matter. In fact, this trip to participate in the global cutting-edge technology exhibition was initiated by Ling Ziqian himself, leveraging family connections to secure his spot.
Global Cutting-Edge Technology Expo is not only a stage for scientists to showcase their work but also a competition of potential strength among nations, with the military being an important aspect of it.
As a member of the Red Family, Ling Ziqian took the initiative to apply for this task. With the family's assistance in operations and his previous involvement in coordinating defense work for the Chip Engineering Team, it was only natural that this responsibility fell on Ling Ziqian.
Perhaps, in a way, this could be seen as a form of gilding. If the entire team can return safely from this trip, it would be a point of pride for the Eastern nation, and there might even be an opportunity for Ling Ziqian to rise further in his career.
Ji Yuan walked ahead and was the first to board the plane. The transport aircraft departed from his villa and made its way to the capital airport.
Upon landing, airport staff had already cleared a path, eliminating all safety hazards and suspicious individuals. Hundreds of staff members stood on either side, ready to serve each member of the visiting team wholeheartedly.
The crowd in the distance was astonished by this spectacle. Aside from those in a hurry, most were reluctant to leave, gathering more and more to watch.
"Wow, this is quite a show!"
"Isn't it? Last time I happened to see Minister Wang from the Ministry of Commerce on an official visit, and it was nowhere near as grand as this!"
"Could it be that several core leaders are visiting?"
"Not necessarily. Last time our Nuclear Weapons Experts visited Russia, the scale was only slightly smaller than this."
As the crowd buzzed with speculation and guesses, the Defense Team escorted Ji Yuan to the assembly room.
The sharp-eyed members of the crowd immediately recognized Ji Yuan, erupting into cheers and snapping photos with their phones. One might think that it was a publicity stunt orchestrated by some celebrity hiring devoted fans.
This was the first time Ji Yuan had encountered such a scene, yet he remained calm and composed as he walked forward.
The group passed through the hall and, under the guidance of the airport manager, arrived at the second floor's VIP Lounge.
As the door swung open, more than thirty individuals spanning three generations—young, middle-aged, and elderly—paused for a moment before quickly rising to bow.
Around their necks hung badges adorned with the National Emblem, gleaming brightly.
Ji Yuan smiled and nodded in acknowledgment, greeting each of them in turn.
On this occasion, Ji Yuan had been appointed as the head of the first delegation for the visit, making him their superior. In such a formal setting, receiving their respect was entirely appropriate.
