Chapter 652: Small Problem!

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

As the brightest new star in the Pearl River Delta, Zhuhai carries the dreams of many.

As the only city on the mainland connected to Hong Kong and Macau by land, Zhuhai naturally becomes the first choice for many tourists.

Dong’ao Island, Zhuhai Grace Dong’ao Hotel!

At this moment, Zhou Chao was leisurely lying on the sofa in the hotel room, gazing at the azure sea outside the window.

Early in the morning, everyone took Zhou Chao’s private plane and flew directly from Lu Island to Zhuhai. They had just finished lunch, and each went back to their room to rest.

“Ah, it feels so comfortable!” Feeling the cool sea breeze on his face, Zhou Chao couldn’t help but stretch.

If it weren’t for Mr. Wang specially asking him to accompany Abdullah for sightseeing this time, he should be busy in the laboratory in Peng City now.

With the mass production of various series of nanometer-level machine tools, Canghai Technology has also taken several big steps forward. According to the information obtained recently, Canghai Technology has expanded several times on its original basis.

Even the number of researchers has increased a lot. According to Lin Wu’s report, it is said that four or five academician-level research experts have also joined.

Of course, all of this is inseparable from the large amount of funds Zhou Tao invested before, which amounted to 30 billion US dollars.

“It seems that after the aerospace exhibition is over, I need to make a trip to Peng City. The chip research plan should also be officially launched.”

Thinking of this, Zhou Chao took out a stack of documents from the system warehouse and started reading. It was the chip data signed out earlier.

“Knock, knock, knock!”

Just as Zhou Chao was engrossed in reading, there was an urgent knocking on the door, accompanied by Lin Wu’s shouting.

“Boss, please open the door quickly!”

Zhou Chao shook his head helplessly, put the documents back into the system warehouse, and walked towards the door.

“Why are you knocking on my door in such a hurry? Is something important?” Zhou Chao asked Si Cong as he opened the door.

“Boss, something bad happened!” Lin Wu said anxiously.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chao’s expression instantly turned cold. “Come in and tell me!”

After saying that, Zhou Chao turned and walked towards the sofa, and Lin Wu walked into the room and closed the door behind him.

“What happened that made you so flustered?”

“Boss, Todd just called and said there’s trouble at the mining site in California, Affligad. There’s been some conflict with the local tribe, and currently, the mine has been occupied by the tribe’s people.”

Hearing this, Zhou Chao’s face immediately turned cold.

“Give Todd a call!”

Lin Wu quickly took out a satellite phone from his pocket and called Todd.

The phone rang only once before Todd answered, apparently waiting for his call.

“Boss!” Todd’s tone was somewhat despondent.

“Tell me, what happened!”

“Boss, we just took over the copper mine in Zambia less than half a month ago. The local indigenous tribes often give us trouble, but this time they resorted to force and sent over a hundred armed men.

At the time, there weren’t many armed men in the mine except for my small team and a ten-member mining protection team. Besides, the weapons were not very adequate, so I temporarily arranged for everyone to retreat.”

After Todd finished speaking, Zhou Chao began to think of a solution. After all, he didn’t know the specific situation on the scene, but he knew the mine had to be retaken.

Zhou Chao rubbed his temples to calm himself down.

“When you went there, didn’t you visit the local tribes? Logically, if they knew you were from Huaxia, they shouldn’t have done something like this!”

“Ah, Boss, do we still need to visit those tribes?” Todd said somewhat surprised.

Hearing this, Zhou Chao felt his veins about to burst.

So Todd went there without even bothering to visit the local tribes. Why would they let you pass without hindrance?

It seems those tribes probably don’t even know that Todd is working for the people of Huaxia.

“Have there been any casualties on either side?”

“No, not in that regard. It’s just been minor conflicts before!” Todd answered truthfully, though he was still puzzled.

“Alright, I got it. I’ll arrange for someone to handle this matter as soon as possible. In the meantime, recruit more people locally and get some training. Send me a report on what you need!”

Upon hearing Zhou Chao’s words, Todd instantly understood that he was being asked to recruit more people and strengthen his own power.

“Boss, don’t worry, I’ll quickly raise a team to guard the mine.”

“Mm!” Zhou Chao hung up the phone after saying that.

He casually threw the satellite phone to Lin Wu and his face showed a look of indignation.

“What the hell is Li Wei doing? He didn’t even think to send someone to assist Todd. Look at Todd’s rough appearance, he knows nothing about the ways of the world. It really annoys me!”

“Boss, maybe Li Wei didn’t expect something like this to happen. You also know that he’s been busy with his wedding arrangements lately, so… there may be a little negligence in his work,” Lin Wu said cautiously.

“Alright, stop making excuses for him. You give him a call and let me scold him. Also, tell him to immediately arrange a team of administrative staff to go over there..”
