"What?"
"Don't detain him for too long?"
Kun Kun was stunned.
He immediately flew into a rage.
So, these two police officers were here to put in a good word for Meng Hao.
"I don't care what that Meng Hao does..."
"I want him to go to jail, to rot in prison..."
"I will never forgive him. I've already notified the company, and I'm going to hire the best lawyer to sue him into prison..."
Uh!
Something was wrong.
The smile on Li Kan's face disappeared.
As an experienced officer with over a decade of work experience and a leader in the police station, when had he ever endured such disrespect?
If it weren't for Meng Hao, he wouldn't have even bothered to visit this so-called popular celebrity, Kun Kun.
In ancient times.
This guy was just a mere actor from a pleasure house.
A dignified state official personally interceded for an actor.
He had shown more than enough respect.
Yet, this person was ungrateful.
"Alright then."
"Since we cannot reach a reconciliation, we will have to report the matter."
"I need to remind you that you were the one who hit the elderly woman in the wheelchair, and your agent then twisted the truth and slandered someone else."
"Strictly speaking, Meng Hao is not being detained, but is assisting us with our investigation... Since you are not cooperating, then he must continue to stay at the police station... I must remind you that lithography machines are extremely important scientific research projects for our country."
"If the situation is reported to the national headquarters, it might not be in your favor!"
Li Kan was a good person.
Everything he said was highly likely to happen.
However, in order to secure Meng Hao's release from the police station as soon as possible, he could only give this Kun Kun a heads-up and let him understand the gravity of the situation.
As a result.
All he received was a series of cold sneers.
"Forget it."
"Stop trying to scare me. I'm a star with tens of millions of fans."
"What lithography machine? Stop trying to scare people. I think you are deliberately showing favoritism to Meng Hao."
With that said.
There was no point in staying any longer.
Li Kan glanced at Zhao Chen, and the two of them left with their gifts... These fruits and health supplements were better taken home for his wife and children than fed to chickens... The look they gave Kun Kun as they left was filled with icy disdain.
As if they were looking at a suicidal pig.
Seeing Li Kan and Zhao Chen leave.
Kun Kun finally blinked and looked at his agent.
"What's a lithography machine?"
"Is it a breed of chicken?"
Hmm.
As expected of Brother Chicken.
Everything looked like his own kind.
...
National Defense Headquarters.
Zhang Weimin sat in front of his computer.
He had now transformed into Meng Hao's biggest fan.
Of course.
Maintaining his relationship with Meng Hao was also part of his daily routine.
With less than twenty minutes until four o'clock.
He quickly began to adjust his computer, waiting to watch the live broadcast.
Meng Hao had said yesterday that he would announce the details of his trip to Hawaii City and his negotiations regarding lithography machine technology.
If Elder Ouyang had not strictly forbidden interference with Meng Hao's actions, Zhang Weimin would have wanted to fly to Shilin to ask Meng Hao about the specific progress himself.
"What's going on?"
"Is there a problem with the internet?"
"Why can't I open the live broadcast page after so long?"
With less than fifteen minutes until the broadcast.
But the live broadcast page still couldn't be opened.
It seemed like they had encountered some technical issue.
And the young men in the office seemed at a loss.
"Sir, it doesn't seem to be our problem. We just had the technical department check, and the network and equipment are all fine."
"It seems you mistakenly clicked on some strange page and can't return for the time being."
Since it wasn't their problem, it must be the interface of that small broken site that was too complicated.
Frustrated, Zhang Weimin could only ask for his daughter's help.
It seemed that when it came to areas like live broadcasting, which young people were good at, his daughter was the expert.
"Find Lieutenant Zhang Xijin."
"It seems fine for you to tinker with light weapons and research rocket launch procedures, but for these internet issues that young people favor, you still need to find my daughter... Oh, Lieutenant Zhang Xijin."
Zhang Weimin was getting anxious.
He had even forgotten his own strict prohibition against referring to family members by their familial titles at work.
As a result.
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Hmm?"
"Lieutenant Zhang Xijin isn't back?"
"Didn't she say her flight was today?"
"Could she have gone to Modu with Meng Hao?... That girl, shouldn't she be reporting back to Kyoto immediately!"
Agitated, Zhang Weimin directly handed over the task of debugging the live broadcast interface to the young men under him.
He took out his phone and called Zhang Xijin.
Hmm?
The phone was turned off?
What was going on?
The agents sent to Hawaii City to secretly protect Meng Hao had already reported back.
They said Zhang Xijin and Meng Hao had successfully left the sphere of influence of the forces in Hawaii City, USA.
Could it be.
Something had happened?
No matter how strict Zhang Weimin usually was, he was still Zhang Xijin's father.
His daughter was suddenly out of contact.
How could he not be worried?
He frowned.
He hung up the phone and dialed another number.
"Hello, is this the Modu Military Region..."
"Could you please help me check the status of a flight? I need to find a few people."
"Okay, the flight number is..."
...
Besides Zhang Weimin.
Many big shots from the military and heavy industry, including Elder Ouyang, were like ordinary internet addicts, guarding their computers, projection screens, and mobile phones.
Waiting for Meng Hao to start the broadcast.
Lithography machine technology!
This was the core technology for the important fields of Great Xia.
They were eagerly awaiting good news from Meng Hao.
...
Less than five minutes remained until Meng Hao's scheduled live broadcast to announce whether he had secured the lithography machine technology during his overseas trip to Hawaii City.
Although Huazhou Technology's only live broadcast channel, the small broken site's Mech Ji live broadcast space, was still pitch black.
However, the number of people who had entered the live broadcast room had already reached over 300,000.
Even.
The total number of participants in the four options for the prize quiz below the live broadcast room had reached over 3 million.
Unlike the high-ranking professional personnel from the military and heavy industry fields.
Most ordinary viewers came with a mindset of wanting to see some drama.
On one hand, they were curious whether Meng Hao had indeed secured the lithography machine technology; on the other hand, they were looking forward to seeing which 10 lucky winners would take home Meng Hao's 50,000 yuan grand prize.
"It's really strange."
"Usually, for live broadcasts, the screen would appear and warm-up half an hour in advance."
"What's going on today? With less than five minutes until the broadcast, there's not even a shadow of a person."
"Don't panic. Mech Ji is a very dedicated girl. It's probably because the answer to be announced in this broadcast is quite shocking, so she's deliberately playing with everyone's anticipation."
"Yes, that's possible."
"Three minutes left, anxious, waiting... I hope when the broadcast starts, Brother Hao won't keep us in suspense anymore."
The dark live broadcast screen.
Colorful bullet comments, like a sky full of fireworks, flooded the entire screen.
