Chapter 121: The Glorious Mission

  Jingyun and Fanghua began to familiarize themselves with the environment, personnel, and operation of the entire information center under Liu Min's leadership. Neither of the two women had expected that as soon as they arrived here, it would be so tense. They both thought that Tianzheng Pharmaceutical was newly established and still needed many days to recruit personnel. As a result, Wu Tian's efficiency was too high, and this place already had 'combat' capability.

  The two women were extremely human, and after a brief period of discomfort, they immediately threw themselves into their roles. The slack line in their hearts was also tightened at this time. They constantly reminded themselves that they absolutely could not be underestimated, nor could they lose face for Wu Tian.

  Besides, there is a group of capable and efficient subordinates. They can't slack off even if they want to. Because the amount of information they need to process is just too much, it's generally massive.

  Wu Tian soon left the information center and arrived at the largest laboratory in the R&D department. After a day of adjustments, except for those instruments that needed to be isolated for experimentation which were still left in other laboratories, all the other instruments required for Project A had been concentrated in this largest laboratory, greatly reducing the time spent walking back and forth and improving work efficiency.

  The initial R&D team members have all gathered, and the materials were delivered to Tiancheng yesterday afternoon. The A project has officially started.

  Wu Tian changed into his lab clothes and walked into the laboratory. Everyone had already started working, each person having their own tasks to complete.

  The project is a massive undertaking, with countless smaller projects beneath it, each containing one or more difficult problems waiting for Wu Tian and others to study and solve. Only by overcoming all the difficulties can they reach the door of success.

  It's like playing a game, you have to defeat one monster at a time, and clear one level at a time. If you can't get past it, you'll be stuck on this level forever, never thinking about the next one. As for clearing the whole game, forget about it.

  Of course, apart from the difficulties brought by the project itself, external factors are also an important aspect. For example: approval has not been passed, financial tightening does not give money, obstruction by various departments, and even directly stopping the project, these are all external factors. Wu Tian encountered all of these situations during his time at Shengtian.

  But from here on, Wu Tian no longer needs to worry about these issues. Because here, what he says goes, he's the boss. Everyone just needs to work hard and research seriously, Project A is the only thing they need to consider. As for other problems, they don't exist.

  External factors still have a great impact on the project's research, but Wu Tian has now directly eliminated these influences, solving everyone's worries. In addition to allowing each person to focus more on the project, it can also reduce the time spent dealing with other departments. This is also why Chen Chen hopes Wu Tian will return to Shengtian, but Wu Tian does not want to go back.

  What he needs is an environment without any external interference!

  When a person is truly devoted to their work and it's something they enjoy, they'll find that time flies by quickly, just like light, in the blink of an eye.

  Wu Tian was in the lab, he hadn't felt anything yet, and it was already evening. Because the laboratory is a closed environment, there are no windows, no sunlight, everything is electric, so you can't see outside at all, and you can't feel the change of light and darkness at all.

  Wu Tian didn't even know it was already evening, and he didn't even realize when noon had passed. It wasn't until Jingyun came to the lab to find him that he knew. The reason was that Chenchen came to the Tianzheng Building to understand the situation, but ended up being stopped by security outside. Although Jingyun went out to receive her, it was useless, as the security guard only recognized Wu Tian. Jingyun didn't want to disturb Wu Tian either, but she knew Chenchen's personality, so in the end, she had no choice but to go to the lab to find Wu Tian.

  Others in the R&D team were still working, they didn't think of going home just because it was evening, and continued to devote themselves to research and development. In fact, overtime is a common occurrence for these science enthusiasts. It's not just one night, even if it's ten days or half a month in the lab, it's normal.

  Mad scientists, apart from experimenting, only eat, excrete and sleep. In fact, they think these three things are also a waste of time in their hearts, but they have to do so to maintain normal bodily functions. The time spent on these three items is very short, and it's so short that even they themselves don't know whether they've slept or not. Sometimes they're in a hurry, especially when sparks of inspiration burst out in their brains, even if they're having a bowel movement, they'll cut it off, pull up their pants and rush to the lab.

  Why else would it be called a madman? Mad, refers to a fierce dog, extended to mean 'mental disorder', 'madness'.

  "How did you get here?"

  Hurriedly leaving the laboratory, Wu Tian arrived at the entrance of the Tianzheng Building and saw Chen Chen being blocked by a security guard. Her face looked terrible, probably because as an ally, she was actually stopped by a mere security guard and not allowed to enter, feeling very embarrassed.

  "Why can't I come?" Chen Chen's tone was very aggressive, it was unclear whether she was still angry from being provoked by the security guard or if last night's anger hadn't dissipated. She looked at Wu Tian and said, "Don't forget those conditions you promised me, as an ally, I have the right to come to the Tianzheng Building, I have the right to know the battle situation at any time, I have..."

  "Alright, alright, hurry up and come in. You're making it seem like you're from a human rights organization coming to defend me." Wu Tian said gruffly, while signaling the security guard to open the door and let Chen Chen in. However, Wu Tian still didn't quite trust Chen Chen, so he warned her, "Let's make one thing clear, you can only look, only listen, don't ask questions, and don't touch anything. Got it?"

  Chen Chen was immediately displeased upon hearing this. She had generously lent Jingyun and Fanghua to the other party, so how could they not even have the right to speak?

  "Do you understand?" Wu Tian asked again.

  Jingyun gently pulled Chenchen's sleeve, and Chenchen gave Wu Tian a white eye, saying very reluctantly, "Understood."

  "Understand? Louder!"

  "I understand!"

  "Understood?" Wu Tian said to Chen Chen, "Remember, everyone here is very busy, don't delay their work, and don't cause trouble. If I find out that because of you, others made mistakes, I will strip you of all your powers and ban you from coming to Tianzheng again."

  Chen Chen's eyes widened immediately, and he stared at Wu Tian, saying, "You're going back on your word. At the beginning, you clearly agreed to my conditions. Now that Jingyun and Fanghua have been transferred over, you're reneging?"

  "I won't regret it, as long as you don't cause trouble, you're welcome here anytime."

  “……！”

  Chen Chen opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say. Wu Tian's words had directly shut her up and made it impossible for her to retort. If she opposed him, wouldn't that just prove that she was there to cause trouble? But if she agreed, then wasn't she admitting that the other person was right before?

  No one is perfect, who can avoid mistakes? Once something happens, and you bump into someone or touch someone, won't you be unable to come here forever after that?

  "I... I won't lend Jingyun and Fanghua to you, I'm going to call them back." Chenchen said angrily.

  "Hmph." Wu Tian sneered and looked at Chen Chen, saying, "That depends on whether you can take them out of this gate."

  “……！”

  Threat, naked threat. Chen Chen turned back to see that the large gate outside was closed, and several tall and sturdy security guards stood on both sides of the gate with a fierce gaze, their expressions and postures clearly indicating that they were former soldiers, not allowing her to be reckless here.

  Chen Chen unconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva and glared at Wu Tian, saying, "Fine, you win, I 'agree'."

  "If you don't want to, you don't have to cover for him!" Wu Tian said, then walked towards the building, saying as he went, "I still have things to attend to on my end. Jingyun, you're in charge of bringing her around. Be careful not to let her cause any trouble. The whole building is under surveillance, if anything happens, I'll let you experience the way I deal with Fang Hua."

  Jingyun's face immediately turned red when she heard Wu Tian's words. Fortunately, it was already dark and they were outside, so it wasn't too noticeable.

  Wu Tian hadn't walked a few steps when his stomach suddenly growled loudly. He had been focusing on work all along, even neglecting lunch, and now it was already evening. If he didn't replenish himself, how could he work at night? Wu Tian thought for a moment, then turned back and asked Jingyun, "Have your people eaten yet?"

  "No, everyone is busy, and dinner hasn't been eaten yet." Jingyun replied truthfully.

  Wu Tian's gaze shifted and fell on Chen Chen beside him, saying, "You're not idle, are you? Now I'm giving you an important and glorious task."

  "What's the task?" As soon as he heard that he could participate in the project, Chen Chen, who had just been dissatisfied, immediately became excited and looked eager to get started.

  "Dinner is ready."

  "Huh?"

  "This is a very arduous task, it's a matter of life and death for everyone. And in this entire building, only you can complete it." Wu Tian looked at Chen Chen with great seriousness, "There are over twenty people here, just prepare enough food for thirty people. The cafeteria is on the second floor, there are pots, pans, utensils, water, electricity, and gas. As for ingredients...it's not too late now, there's a supermarket nearby, you can drive to buy them back. Oh, and whatever you do, don't order takeout, everyone's already fed up with it."

  He glanced at the time, it was already 7:30, and said to Chen Chen, "Give you an hour, must be done by 8:30." Wu Tian then turned to Jingyun and said, "Go back and inform, we'll have dinner on the second floor restaurant at 8:30. I want to hear about your progress today." After finishing speaking, Wu Tian turned around and walked directly into the building, not giving Chen Chen a chance to speak. Regardless of whether it was opposition or no opposition, he didn't listen to any of it. In short, they had to do as he said.

  This is an order!

  Here, he is the boss! Everyone has to listen to his command.

  Watching Wu Tian's back, Chen Chen clenched his fists tightly and panted heavily.

  Late at night, is it good to watch TV dramas at home? Why would I want to come see him? Bastard! Not even offering hospitality, and yet he makes me cook for thirty people? It's exhausting!

  "Jingyun, are you guys really busy today?" Chenchen asked, looking at Jingyun beside him.

  "Ah, yes." Jingyun sighed and said, "It wasn't until I came here today that I realized the previous work was just child's play. There are a large number of workaholics gathered here. Especially in the laboratory, as far as I know, they didn't eat lunch and have been working until now."

  "Really?"

  Hearing Jingyun's words, Chenchen's face finally eased a lot.

  "Well, in that case... forget it, I'll just consider it exercise and weight loss."
