Hao Ren waited in the conference room before a timid looking girl walked inside the room. Her hair were covering her forehead, and she was holding the hem of her shirt. Klaus said, "Miss Talia is a senior developer in the team responsible for development of the horizon operating system." The people nodded and Hao Ren asked, "Miss Talia, can you guess why have you been called over?" The girl flinched and shook her head timidly. Hao Ren sighed and said, "You do not have to worry so much. It is not a bad thing to be called over. The thing is that I liked how you have optimized the OS processing algorithms by twenty percent. Your work is so nice that while testing it, I found no glitch, so I thought why not call you over and give you creation credit. I wonder what you think of this proposal." Talia was surprised and Klaus smiled at her. He said, "Everyone, Miss Talia here has proven that we are not behind those big shots of the other high level companies, by improvising the processing algorithm on her own. With this step, our software capability is on par with Byte Technologies." The people were surprised and they all clapped together as they complimented Talia and congratulating Hao Ren. The young man waved his hand and said, "Miss Talia, I want to give you complete charge to look into the new version of the operating system. You can hand pick the people you want in your team. Someone who can move along with you and create better tech for the company." Talia opened her mouth and she nodded. Hao Ren did not force her to talk, and said, "You may leave now. Get ready to list out the people from the hand it to Mister Klaus." Talia opened her eyes wide and then she said, "Yes, Mister President." The big shots congratulated her and the lady left the conference room with a dazed expression. She did not expect that such a good news will come knocking on her door so suddenly. Inside the conference room, Hao Ren said while looking at the HR director, "Inform the people to increase her pay and issue a promotion letter." The man nodded, and Hao Ren looked at Attorney Leigh, "What happened to the redevelopment application?" Leigh smiled and said, "Well, the magistrate has passed the application, but we have to wait till all the relevant departments sign on it. If all goes well, it will be finished by the end of the week." Hao Ren nodded and said, "As soon as you get the permit, inform me. We are running behind the schedule." Leigh nodded, and Hao Ren said, "Miss Lynn, we have signed the cooperation agreement with the military. You can call them and get me an appointment with Commander Gan." The lady nodded, and then Hao Ren began to delegate a lot of work to all the heads on the table. Lastly, he looked at Klaus and said, "I want a transparent body performance and gaming laptop. Design priorities are cooling, and compact, and clean." Klaus was surprised and asked, "What do you intend to do?" Xiao Mei replied, "Yes, just a second, I am using the satellite vision, to scan every single roof top in the two kilometer range, that aligns with the Empress International's building." At this moment, Hao Ren spotted a lot of police vehicles coming over, and they began to clear the crowd to set up a parameter. One of the police officers came beside Hao Ren and shoved him while yelling, "Is there a movie going on here? You people have nothing good to do then gathering here and watching others in misery." Hao Ren turned around, and shoved the cops hands away. He pointed at the building behind him and said, "My wife is in there, and I would like to see how you slacking pieces of shit can make me go away from here. I swear to god, I will break all your legs before you have a chance to face those terrorists. Incompetent pigs!" Hao Ren did not lower his voice, and his contempt was heard by everyone. The cop was pissed, and he took hold of his baton before he swung it at Hao Ren while yelling, "How dare you curse me, you son of a bitch." Hao Ren leaned back, avoided the baton, and then jabbed at the temple of the cop attacking him. The people did not even catch hold of his move, and only saw the cop falling to the ground. Hao Ren snorted and said, "Xiao Mei, I dislike incompetency." The AI replied, "Three men, on top of three buildings, forming a perfect triangle with the building in the center." Hao Ren nodded, and said, "Guide me to these locations." The cops had yet to discover a fallen comrade, so Hao Ren vanished in the crowd with ease. ... Inside the President's office, Maya Okudera and Han Lingshi were sitting on the couch with a blonde man sitting across them with a sunny smile on his face. The man spoke in fluent Han language, "Miss Han, the fabled empress of Han Nation Business circle. It is my pleasure to have an audience with you." Han Lingshi did not reply, she only watched the man before her with a dead pan face. The man did not seem to dislike this, and continued, "I understand that the mannerism of my visit is very rude and toxic, but you see, I had a few questions that I could not find the answer to. In the end, all I could do was to seek you. Can you tell me who destroyed Red Banner?" Han Lingshi furrowed her brows, she did not know what Hao Ren pulled off, but it happened and she could bet her life that it was her husband who did something like this. She shook her head and replied, "I have no idea." The blonde man nodded and asked, "Can you tell me where might I find your husband?" Han Lingshi frowned and asked, "What do you want with him?" The man smiled and replied, "We should not ruin the surprise for someone."
