“You know what, guys? How about we build our own tech city in the desert!”
Zhou Chao’s casual words sounded like thunder in the ears of the others.
“Boss, that sounds a bit unrealistic, don’t you think?” Xu Yu couldn’t bring herself to directly tell her boss that this idea was nothing short of a pipe dream.
“Why not? Look at what those guys in Saudi Arabia did in the desert. They built a one-of-a-kind city. Why can’t we?”
Zhou Chao’s face still bore a faint smile.
Upon hearing this, the three exchanged glances, each seeing astonishment reflected in the others’ eyes.

“Boss, you… you’re not really planning to build a tech city in the desert, are you?”
“Mm-hmm!” Zhou Chao nodded firmly.
“Even if it were possible to build such a city in the desert, the cost would be astronomical!” Xu Yu couldn’t help but try to dissuade him.
If it were anyone else suggesting this, they would be thought of as daydreaming fools!
“Don’t you believe in the capabilities of your boss?”
The shock came from its sheer mundanity.
Everyone, including Lin Wu, was left speechless. If they were to truly build a tech city in the desert, it would cost at least two to three trillion US dollars, and that was a conservative estimate!
After all, constructing high-tech buildings like those in a tech park, even if scaled up several times, would undoubtedly cost much more than regular construction.
But soon, they realized that the floating capital of their company, Canghai Technology, was already in the hundreds of billions of US dollars, and this number was visibly increasing at an eye-catching rate.
Moreover, with the impending sale of various machineries such as machine tools and lithography systems, this would be another significant source of funds, and one that would continue to flow steadily!
As long as given time, couldn’t they accumulate such a huge amount of funds on their own?
“You don’t need to worry about the funding issue at all. To speak frankly, there are very few entities in the world that can produce as much cash as me in one go, even among the various hidden financial giants behind the scenes!”
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
The others understood that when the boss mentioned financial giants, he wasn’t talking about the ones on the surface but rather families like the Rothschilds and the Rockefellers, who were the actual controllers of many world-renowned enterprises!
They also knew that once the boss had made up his mind, he must have already thought through the subsequent matters and probably had a blueprint in mind!
Seeing that the others were more or less accepting of the idea, and knowing that it was time to move on to the next topic, he wondered if it would make their jaws drop!
“Lao Zhou, Lan Ling, if you had the chance to win a Nobel Prize, would you take it?”
“Of course! We’re not just seeking fame; we just want to prove that we Chinese are no less capable than anyone else!”
The two didn’t even hesitate, speaking in unison as if they had prearranged it.
And when these words were spoken, Zhou Chao and the others were a bit confused. “Could these two be… well, a little too much on the same wavelength?”
“Ahem!” Zhou Chao coughed softly, trying to ease the somewhat awkward atmosphere.
And Zhou Jilong and Lan Ling also smiled at each other!
“Back to business! Let me show you something. Xiao Guo, check the network environment and project the introduction of the technology to convert desert soil onto the computer!”
“Sure thing!” With a flash of light from his phone, the computer screen on the desk quickly displayed a little man in a suit, holding a small stick, looking just like a teacher!
Seeing Xiao Guo’s appearance, Zhou Chao couldn’t help but pat his own forehead in resignation.
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
But the rest of the group was completely drawn in by Xiao Guo’s appearance, all crowding around, especially Zhou Jilong and Lan Ling, who became Zhou Chao’s right and left-hand men, their eyes shining as they stared at Xiao Guo.
No one paid any attention to the technology for converting desert soil displayed on the desktop!
“That’s enough. I need your attention on the explanation, not on Xiao Guo!”
Hearing Zhou Chao’s command, everyone snapped out of it and quickly straightened up.
“Xiao Guo, please begin!”
With the normal instruction given, Xiao Guo started a simple explanation of the technology for converting desert soil.
As for why Xiao Guo knew about all this, it was something Zhou Chao had thought of suddenly back in Jingdu. After all, he couldn’t keep giving USB drives to his subordinates every time.
So Zhou Chao decided to store all his technology with Xiao Guo, making it convenient for him to access it anytime without worrying about loss or leaks!
After about five or six minutes, Xiao Guo finished the explanation, folding his hands in front of his chest and silently looking at everyone.
Zhou Chao could tell from Xiao Guo’s demeanor what it wanted to do.
“What are you all staring at? Didn’t you see that Teacher Xiao Guo finished speaking? Why aren’t you applauding?”
Upon hearing Zhou Chao’s words, everyone snapped out of it and quickly applauded. Xiao Guo then smiled and bowed to everyone.
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
Immediately, the screen flashed, and both Xiao Guo and the displayed information disappeared.
“What do you all think about this?” Zhou Jilong asked as he sat back on the sofa, along with the others.
As experts in scientific research, Zhou Jilong and Lan Ling naturally understood the concepts involved!
After all, China’s desertification area reached a staggering 2.61 million square kilometers, accounting for 27% of the country’s land area. If this technology could truly be realized, it would be a blessing for the whole world!
