Siheyuan: A warm home with wife and children

"It's fine, is there anything I can help you with?" Wu Mei asked.

"Yes, the experiment on the Loongson side failed."

"..." Wu Mei blinked innocently and said, "Didn't they say it was a success?"

Zhu Hao helplessly spread his hands: "They were too eager for quick results and submitted the report before waiting for the final step..."

Zhu Hao clenched his fists, then raised them and opened them again. "Bang, it's gone."

"Then you should go in quickly, while there's nothing else to do right now."

In Wu Mei's experience, everyone likes to flock together.

One good thing will lead to several more good things.

Conversely, bad things will always follow.

"Okay, I'll go first then." Zhu Hao was about to go in to report when he saw Yang Jianguo push the door open and come out.

"Tell Xiao Duan to drive the car to the entrance; something happened at the research institute."

No sooner had I finished speaking than something terrible happened.

Zhu Hao looked at Wu Mei helplessly and innocently, thinking to himself, "Does she have to be so punctual? I'm such a jinx."

"Xiao Zhu, what's wrong?"

Under Wu Mei's sympathetic gaze, Zhu Hao had no choice but to bite the bullet and tell him the truth.

Yang Jianguo, who was walking briskly forward, suddenly stopped.

He paused for a few seconds, as if to allow his brain to accept the reality, before continuing to take another step forward.

"You don't need to come to the research institute with me. Go to Loongson, find out the specifics, and then come back and tell me."

"clear."

Only after watching his leader get into the car and leave did Zhu Hao finally release the pent-up anger.

This leader is great in every way, except when he gets serious.

The aura emanating from him, wow~

It’s so unbearable!

"Make way, make way, Director Yang is here."

After dispersing the crowd that had formed a circle, Yang Jianguo, led by Xiang Shaodong, entered the archives room.

The room was ransacked, and all the metal cabinet doors were wide open.

The documents and files inside were scattered around like trash.

The documents that were once neatly arranged on the floor and table are now a tangled mess.

"Someone discovered that it was already like this; no one had ever gone inside."

Xiang Shaodong said sternly, "But it's obvious what's missing here."

At the crucial moment of the successful development of ultra-high strength composite steel, the data room was infiltrated.

It's immediately clear what the other party is looking for.

If the other party isn't an idiot, he's probably already got the information he wanted.

"Let the security department and the National Security personnel take over. Young Master, come with me."

Upon arriving at the office, I closed and locked the door.

Yang Jianguo asked softly, "Have you made all the arrangements?"

"Of course, I changed it myself, and nobody knows."

"Do the data match up?"

"No problem, we just made some changes to the catalyst and its ratio."

Xiang Shaodong sat casually on the sofa, crossed his legs, and said, "Jianguo, you have a good sense of secrecy!"

Yang Jianguo smiled and replied, "You're not bad either; you managed to substitute one thing for another without anyone noticing."

"Hehe, wouldn't you say we're a good team?"

"Alright, wipe that smile off your face. Don't give yourself away when we go out later."

"Don't worry, I'm a professional... Hey, if I went to act in movies, wouldn't I be even more popular than that kid from Shaolin Temple?"

Yang Jianguo looked him up and down a few times, then calmly said, "You'd be better off relying on your skills to make a living. I'm afraid you'll starve if you rely on your looks."

Chapter 574 Showcasing Acting Skills, Suspicion

"What are you all doing? How could such a huge mistake happen? That's a confidential database, don't you even know what confidential means?"

Yang Jianguo was furious in his office, slamming his fist on the table with a loud bang.

Those listening outside were so frightened they didn't dare lift their heads.

As for those inside, those being criticized are the security department, the data management department, and the office director.

My head felt like it was stuck between my legs, and my face was incredibly uncomfortable.

Damn it, how could something like this happen?

who is it? !

It must be one of our own, a mole.

The men were absolutely furious with the mole, thinking to themselves, "Don't let me find out who it is, or I'll skin you alive! Damn it!"

"Three days. I'll only give you three days to find out what's missing."

Yang Jianguo lit a cigarette, took two angry puffs, and his eyes were so sharp they looked like he was about to kill someone on the spot.

"And that mole... What I hate most is someone who betrays their own people, who eats the food and then curses the cook."

With a self-deprecating laugh, Yang Jianguo sarcastically remarked, "I'd be ashamed to call him a human being."

"Don't worry, sir, I will definitely give you an explanation in three days," the head of the security department solemnly promised him.

Yang Jianguo turned his head to the side and stared at Xiang Shaodong for a long time without saying a word.

His eyes narrowed slightly; anyone could tell how angry he was.

"Young Master."

As soon as his name was called, Xiang Shaodong's face turned pale: "Leader."

"You've disappointed me... That's it, everyone get out!" With a wave of his hand, Yang Jianguo sat down in a chair, closed his eyes, and ignored the surrounding commotion.

The group looked at each other, their hearts pounding with trepidation as they left the office.

Standing at the door, everyone felt particularly heavy-hearted.

Xiang Shaodong was undoubtedly the worst.

Judging from his pale, bluish face, you could tell how intense his anger was.

That fire was enough to burn down the building.

"Mr. Xiang, don't worry too much, we will find out the truth."

"Mr. Xiang, this really can't be..."

Xiang Shaodong shook his head and said to them, "Stop talking. It's my fault for not doing my job well. It's only right that the leader criticizes me."

Everyone couldn't help but sigh, Xiang Gong was truly loyal to his leader.

But at the same time, my impression of him as a person has improved.

Whether you're a good person or a bad person, you hope to be surrounded by good people.

Ideally, they should be loyal and honest people who can be trusted.

Nobody wants to be sold off by someone else for profit, only to be sold off by someone else at an even higher price.

"Everyone, hurry up and finish the work at hand."

Xiang Shaodong clenched his fist and said in a strained voice, "Then, we'll find that traitorous son of a bitch."

"Okay." They nodded emphatically and dispersed.

The security department began notifying all departments to prepare for individual questioning.

The entry and exit registration, attendance records, and other documents at the gatehouse were also sealed and taken away.

The first people to be questioned were the clerical staff, secretaries, assistants, drivers, and so on in various departments.

At this moment, Guoan came to Yang Jianguo's office and suggested that he set up a liaison office there.

"Director Yang, this is the leader's instruction." The visitor took out a document and placed it in front of him.

Yang Jianguo glanced at the signature area in the lower right corner, nodded and said, "Okay, let's do it this way. You can discuss the specifics yourselves. I trust you."

Whether the other party was sincere or just saying a few polite words, the person who came breathed a sigh of relief.

With his words, at least their work could proceed smoothly.

As for the future work of the liaison office, that's up to the personnel stationed there to handle.

This isn't a sterile room for raising children; no one has an obligation to take responsibility for others.

Yang Jianguo stubbed out his cigarette and picked up the phone: "Outbound line, Loongson Lab."

Thirty seconds later, a familiar voice came from the other end of the line, "Boss, this is Zhu Hao."

"Hmm, how's the situation?" With no news coming in for so long, Yang Jianguo had no choice but to call and inquire personally.

Zhu Hao briefly told him that the situation was a little more complicated than he had imagined.

By working backward, they discovered that the research had gone astray in the middle of the process, which was why the results differed from their expectations.

In other words, the actual date for the results will be later than expected.

This news was undoubtedly terrible for Yang Jianguo.

Although the research institute was putting on an act, the situation at Loongson was genuinely making him angry.

Ambitious and eager for quick success.

They dared to report good news even before the results were available.

Fortunately, he didn't continue reporting it, thinking he would take a look himself first.

If Yang Jianguo has already reported this, how will he explain it to his superiors?

This could have a huge impact on him; to put it bluntly, it could even ruin his future.

Over the years, Yang Jianguo has made many friends, but he has made even more enemies...

One mistake can be seized upon and brought up repeatedly by countless people.

This is utterly ridiculous...

"Okay, have them stop for now, I'll be there in a bit."

Yang Jianguo will personally conduct the proofreading and also have a talk with Loongson's current team.

He wanted to see if some people's mindset was no longer suitable for staying there.

Doing experiments and research can be very tedious and boring.

Because before you actually achieve results, all you can do is verify again and again, tirelessly, to find the right path.

After each small breakthrough, the process will repeat itself again and again...

Until success, one must go through thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of failures.

Patience is an essential psychological quality for researchers.

Any short-sighted thinking will ultimately lead to unforeseen losses.

For this reason, some people do not hesitate to forge and fabricate lies, using illusions to gain trust, honor and funds, and even commit greater mistakes.

The reputation of academia has been destroyed step by step by these people.

Yang Jianguo can't manage the surge in researchers across the country, but he can at least manage the staff under his own command.
