Chapter 287: Chapter 287: Genius or Devil?
"Today, huh?" Jiang Cheng sat on the sofa, rubbing his temples, feeling as if he were busy every day. He didn’t expect to meet with the leadership again.
However, since the leadership had expressed their intention to see him, he definitely had to go. So Jiang Cheng nodded and said, "Alright, I’ll go to the capital with you today."
After organizing some essentials for the trip and bringing samples of the Basic Gene Evolution Potion, Jiang Cheng boarded the plane with Major General Xiang Dong.
The plane flew swiftly. Looking out through the window at the scenery below, Jiang Cheng suddenly felt a bit disoriented.
Since arriving in this world, he hadn’t leisurely taken in the scenery for a long time. It was always about being busy with one thing or another every day.
Nevertheless, for the sake of technological development in this world, Jiang Cheng felt that it was all worth it.
Time passed quickly; within just a few hours, Jiang Cheng and Major General Xiang Dong’s group arrived in the Imperial Capital and headed towards the Central North Sea.
The Central North Sea, a combination of Central Sea and North Sea, is the residence of Huaxia’s leadership and a place for daily administrative work.
It was Jiang Cheng’s first time at the Central North Sea. After passing through multiple checkpoints, he followed Major General Xiang Dong into a spacious reception room.
The reception room was filled with military personnel and many professors from the field of genetic research. Upon entering, Jiang Cheng was faced with this grand setup but wasn’t surprised.
It was the Number Three Leader who was meeting Jiang Cheng.
At this moment, the Number Three Leader was sitting on a chair, sipping tea. When he saw Jiang Cheng and Major General Xiang Dong enter, weather-beaten, he stood up directly to greet them.
In a reception room of the Central North Sea, the Number Three Leader stood up, full of smiles, welcoming Jiang Cheng’s arrival.
He radiated a sense of authority from years in high position. Though looking quite affable, he was hard to approach, his inner thoughts inscrutable.
This reminded Jiang Cheng of a saying: a leader must blend into the crowd yet also stand out from it.
"This must be the famous Jiang Cheng, right? Truly young and promising." The Number Three Leader expressed with a look of admiration and gestured for Jiang Cheng to sit.
As for Major General Xiang Dong, naturally, he could only stand there with a smile on his face.
"Oh, no, no, I see that you’re the one doing great things, always worrying about so many national affairs. Compared to you, we in scientific research are nothing." Jiang Cheng responded with a smile.
The Number Three Leader shook his head with a wry smile, "Haha, every generation has its genius. You researchers are truly the hope of the era. We just handle some administrative structures. You brought the Genetic Evolution Potion, right? Why not show it to these professors?"
"Our country attaches great importance to your research. If it really can be as you and Major General Xiang Dong mentioned earlier, then our country would surely lead others in the genetic field by decades."
The Number Three Leader got straight to the point. After a brief compliment to Jiang Cheng, he directly asked him to present the Genetic Evolution Potion to the professors waiting in the reception room for examination.
"Hmm, alright." Jiang Cheng nodded, took a small box from his briefcase, input his fingerprint, and the box opened immediately, revealing a stunningly beautiful small vial in front of everyone.
The present researchers couldn’t help but feel their hearts beat wildly at the sight of this small vial.
The technology inside that vial was at least fifty years ahead of the world. Who would have thought they could witness the Genetic Evolution Potion in their lifetime, possibly even see the emergence of so-called ’Neo-Humans’?
Yet, some researchers present were indifferent to the vial Jiang Cheng presented. They always believed that with current technological levels, such absurd things as Genetic Evolution Potions couldn’t exist, thinking Jiang Cheng was merely seeking attention.
The leader took the sample of the Genetic Evolution Potion. Under the light, the liquid in the bottle glowed with a mesmerizing luster.
Watching the potion, tears seemed to well up at the corners of the leader’s eyes.
For through this potion, he saw the future of Huaxia. "Leader, here is some data about the Genetic Evolution Potion and the specific preparation method. The country must keep this confidential," Jiang Cheng hesitated, then took out a stack of documents from his backpack.
This stack of documents contained all the data and specific preparation methods of the Basic Gene Potion. It was of utmost importance and absolutely couldn’t fall into foreign hands.
"The data on the Genetic Evolution Potion? And the preparation methods? Excellent, excellent! Jiang Cheng, you’ve made another enormous contribution to the country. I think awarding you a military rank might not even be enough to credit a tenth of your achievements," the Number Three Leader sighed after glancing through Jiang Cheng’s documents.
At the same time, he summoned a military officer.
Handing the materials to that officer, the Number Three Leader said solemnly, "Give this material to the professors to calculate the data. By the way, the confidentiality agreements are ready, have the professors sign them... .
The Genetic Evolution Potion is a revolutionary technology affecting the future of humanity; the nation must strictly maintain its confidentiality. Signing a confidentiality agreement is just the basics, and once the country truly starts researching this technology, those professors will have their activities restricted.
Just like when old Huaxia researched nuclear weapons, this is strategic technology affecting the country’s future! The Number Three Leader cannot be careless!
The leading professor, named Tang Zhenghong, after signing the confidentiality agreement, receiving the material and a USB drive storing all the data, immediately showed an excited expression and, with the other professors, boarded a vehicle heading for the laboratory.
After the professors left, Jiang Cheng chatted briefly with the Number Three Leader before leaving the Central North Sea, taking a vehicle to the Zhongke Institute’s Genome Research Institute.
The journey from the Central North Sea to the Zhongke Institute’s Genome Research Institute was neither close nor far. After a period of travel, the vehicle with Jiang Cheng and the leader arrived at the institute.
The Number Three Leader and Jiang Cheng entered the research institute.
At that time, within the research institute, those professors who had signed the confidentiality agreements had already begun researching the Genetic Evolution Potion Technology.
The institute was bustling with activity.
Each professor was assigned their tasks, currently verifying the correctness of Jiang Cheng’s Genetic Evolution Potion theory.
Professor Tang Zhenghong, looking at the data on the computer screen, was already filled with shock. According to the computer simulation, this section of the Genetic Evolution Potion theory was again proved correct.
Jiang Cheng, is he a genius, or a devil?
