Chapter 1149 - Running a School (2)
Faced with the doubts of the outside world, the Tengfei Group did not have any response. They only proceeded with their plans to run the school step by step.
The first thing to start construction was the university — the future university!
Initially, the outside world had thought that the Tengfei Group would definitely invest money into the school and name it Tengfei Group. However, Ji Feng insisted on naming it a future university. The outside world understood that this should be the Tengfei Group's future hope and this university was Tengfei Group's future hope.
However, only Ji Feng knew that his original intention was to become the cradle of science and technology knowledge in the future. From one day to the next, the students at this university would be taught about science and technology knowledge in the future.
Afterwards, the Tengfei Group began to build on a large scale while paying a huge sum of money to buy large tracts of land. This caused the outside world to be extremely shocked; just looking at the scale of the land they were buying, even building ten universities was enough.
The outside world started guessing. Could it be that the Tengfei Group wanted to enter the real estate industry? Taking land in the name of running a school was just a front. The real purpose was to make real estate?
For those who knew about the Teng Fei Group's background, this was definitely a possibility. Who knew how many of these second generations used all sorts of pretexts to make a fortune in the real estate market?
Even some newspapers and magazines began to openly question him.
However, in the face of this doubt, the Tengfei Corporation merely explained in a neutral tone: Other than the employee welfare room, the Tengfei Corporation will absolutely not dabble in the real estate industry!
After that, there was no other explanation.
This att.i.tude made the outside world even more doubtful. However, the Tengfei Group continued to do whatever they wanted. They didn't have any cover or any other excuses.
Just when the outside world was bustling with activity, the Tengfei Group suddenly had a new commotion.
Tengfei Group suddenly announced that its subsidiary company, Rongshi Company, had officially started business and accepted orders from the entire world. This news caused an uproar in the news media throughout the world.
It was all because of the products produced by the Rongshi Company — the new chromium alloy!
In almost the shortest amount of time, representatives from all over the world and countries started to gather at Jiang Prefecture.
The new chromium alloy, these words to any country in the world, has a very attractive force. Just what kind of material was good for this? Just what the Tengfei Corporation and the United University said at the news conference was enough to move people's hearts, but everyone knew, this was definitely not all, because all the countries have already heard that the Chinese military had placed a heaven's quant.i.ty order for this material. There was absolutely a reason for the Chinese military to take a fancy to it!
Even if it was only from a military perspective, this kind of material that could cause the radar to fail was too important.
Otherwise, why would the Chinese military be tempted?
However, Rong's company was calm enough about this, because in his heart, he knew clearly that accepting orders from everyone was just a front, because if he sold his goods, even if Rong's company expanded its current scale by a hundred times, it still wouldn't be able to keep up.
Making a new type of chromium alloy was not as simple as just manufacturing it. Where did the raw materials come from? Where do skilled workers come from? These are all problems.
Especially the raw materials. This was a huge problem.
As of now, most of the world's mining industry has been monopolized by foreigners. Just by looking at how much China suffers from iron ore every year, one can imagine this.
The cleverer and earlier generation of j.a.panese accounted for more than half of the world's iron ore and the rest were divided up by mining companies in countries like Europe and the United States. The number of people in China was truly too little, and even if there were occasional news reports of domestic companies buying minerals abroad, most of them were just making a loss.
Although the new type of chromium alloy was not made from any special ore, the more it was so, the less of a source it would come from. It would not be difficult for outsiders to get ahold of Tengfei Group's neck.
Honor is the company to open up the order market, actually also have the intention to relieve pressure in this area.
Of course, what was even more important was that this new chromium alloy could be considered a strategic material of the country to a certain extent. How could this alloy be sold in large quant.i.ties to foreigners?
Even if it was sold, it would have to wait a while, or perhaps even until the world's weapons technology was close to overcoming some of the properties of the new chromium alloy.
For example, if they obtained reliable information, some countries would have developed more advanced radar systems that could scan for new weapons made of chromium alloy. At that time, it would be possible to sell them to the outside world.
Regarding these matters, Ji Feng only knew the general direction. As for the details, he gave them to Rong Peng. He believed that with Rong Peng's experience, he would definitely be able to handle them.
This was also the reason why Ji Feng had always hoped for Rongpeng to come out of the sect. Rongpeng's ability and knowledge in business had long been proven, and the most precious things were his experience in life and business. This was what Ji Feng valued the most.
Now, Ji Feng was focusing on the recruitment of children into Tong Lei's school, as well as on the development of new weapons.
Tong Lei's original goal for running the school was very simple. She wanted to teach the children of foreigners that came to China to speak Chinese. Now, this wish of hers was about to be realized.
However, the initial progress was not very smooth.
This was because there were many schools like this in Jiang Prefecture. Whether it was an international school or a private educational inst.i.tution, they all had a tutorial on Chinese.
Especially for some international schools, their teaching abilities were all in every direction. Moreover, the teachers' abilities were not even comparable to Tong Lei's school at all. Just the teaching experience of the teachers alone could not be compared.
As such, during the period of time from the enrollment advertis.e.m.e.nt, very few students had signed up.
Ji Feng wanted to comfort her for fear that Tong Lei might feel uncomfortable, but Tong Lei was very open-minded about it.
"It doesn't matter. You can start the most basic education and take it as a free lesson for the children of the orphanage. You're rich anyway, so you can afford to pay for it!" Tong Lei chuckled.
"..."
Ji Feng didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
However, since Tong Lei could think like that, he was relieved. What he was most afraid of was that Tong Lei had high expectations for him, but the gap between expectations and reality was too big, it would be unbearable for her.
Now it seemed that his worries were completely unnecessary.
"Then let's start the basic education cla.s.s!" Ji Feng laughed, "If it really isn't possible, then we should recruit more children from the orphanage, or recruit children from migrant workers. Usually, it is very difficult for them to attend school, so giving them a chance to attend school is also doing good deeds."
Tong Lei nodded slightly: "I originally had a plan for this."
Ji Feng laughed, "That's good then."
Tong Lei said, "Actually, I wanted to donate some hope primary school, but I was afraid the money I donated would be randomly spent by others. Tong Lei said," Actually, I wanted to donate some hope primary school, but I was afraid that the money I donated would be randomly spent by people.
Ji Feng smiled and nodded. "We've already started. The Tengfei Group has already started donating money. It's just that we haven't been building our own school yet."
Tong Lei nodded slightly: "Okay."
Actually, when Xiao Yuxuan came back, she would always chat with her about some of the Tengfei Corporation's movements. Xiao Yuxuan was very respectful of Tong Lei, and she would sometimes deliberately chat about some things as well. Through chatting, Tong Lei knew quite a bit about the Tengfei Corporation's tactics.
In a month's time, Tong Lei's school only managed to recruit eight foreign children. Moreover, their ages were different, but luckily they had people, so Tong Lei personally taught them Chinese.
Everything was going smoothly, but Ji Feng never let down his guard.
Because up till now, the missing Professor Tong and those twenty plus technicians had not been found. Moreover, since the last war seemed to have become very busy, Ji Feng realized that it was time to take action again!
However, it was inconvenient for Ji Feng to inquire about it. Even though he still had the status of an adviser, it was inconvenient for him to inquire about such military actions.
However, he could guess that because of the recent tense situation in the Southern Sea Region, the United States, Vietnam and the Philippines had held a joint military exercise. The scope of the exercise had even included areas that were in dispute with China.
Without a doubt, this was a form of pressure on Huaxia.
Or it could be said that this was an ocean muscle show. As for the audience, they were of course China, an ancient country that was rapidly rising up and was already feeling threatened by other countries.
At this time, Ji Feng had already guessed what the Special Forces were going to do, but he couldn't help but sneer inside. This time, they would not be in a sorry state like last time, and if the Philippines and Viet Nam were to treat the Special Forces equipped with laser guns as ordinary Special Forces, the result would definitely make their hearts go cold!
Ji Feng didn't ask about the final outcome of the operation, but after half a month, when he saw the red-faced young man, Ji Feng would already know the result.
"Let's go, I'll buy you a drink!"
When Xiang Yongzheng saw Ji Feng, he pulled him away without saying a word, "I can't bear to drink the aged wine that I brought from the old man. Since I invited you today, I've made an exception!"
Ji Feng laughed, "The mission went smoothly?"
Luo Yong Zhan laughed, "What do you think? "We'll know when we watch the news later!"
Ji Feng was somewhat surprised. "This matter can be reported on the news?"
This sort of covert military operation would often occur, and there were no news reports of it. The ordinary citizens did not even know that there was such a thing happening right beside them.
However, a few days later, when the news reported that the joint exercise in the southern seas had entered a new phase and had turned towards the deep sea, Ji Feng understood what was going on.
