April 1999.

South China City, Yantian Port.

A middle-aged man wearing glasses and his colleague were standing at the pier, walking back and forth, obviously feeling a little anxious.

They finally breathed a sigh of relief as they watched the last container being hoisted onto the ship by the big crane at the port.

Most of the cargo on this more than 200-meter-long cargo ship is rare earth ores.

Island countries are China's main purchasers of rare earths. The main reason is because of their lack of resources and the extremely high utilization value of rare earths.

Due to their special atomic structure, the members of the rare earth family are very active, and each of them has extraordinary skills and boundless magic power.

Combined with other elements, they can form a wide variety of new materials with ever-changing functions and different uses, and their performance can be doubled.

In a certain sense, the United States was able to have an overwhelming advantage in several local wars after the Cold War because of its superiority in the field of rare earth technology.

"Lao Liao, have you brought any seasickness medicine?"

Liu Ao poked the dark middle-aged man next to him with his arm.

"I'm not seasick, so why would I bring that thing with me?" The middle-aged man named Lao Liao smiled, showing his white teeth.

He has been running boats all year round, and the ultraviolet rays at sea are very strong, so he also got an "African" tan.

Every time he goes home during the Chinese New Year, the children dare not recognize him.

"I almost drowned in the river when I was a child, so I was a little scared when I saw the bottomless water."

Liu Ao looked at the endless sea and sighed sadly.

When he joined the special service team, he hid this fact. He originally thought that he would stay away from the sea, but he didn't expect that this mission would actually involve going to sea.

"Be patient, it's only seven or eight days." Lao Liao is already used to it, and the road to the island country is more familiar than returning home.

On this trip, they must first go to the island country's Yokohama Port to unload the rare earth ores before they can proceed with their next plan.

Liu Ao walked on the side of the ship and looked at the surging water under his feet. He couldn't help but feel dizzy.

They haven't left the port yet, and everything is calm.

He tried to take a few steps. The deck of the 10,000-ton ship was as solid as a concrete floor.

However, he knew very well that when the sea was hit by huge waves of more than ten meters, even a giant ship of 10,000 tons would still be like a small boat, swaying back and forth.

However, this mission is very important, it is not just as simple as losing his job, so no matter how seasick he is, he must strictly obey the arrangements.

At most, I'll just stay in my room for the next few days.

....

Island country, Tokyo.

Division of Infinity Corporation.

Chen Weidong walked around anxiously in the office.

Sometimes he raised his hand to look at his watch, sometimes he walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows and looked down at the street below.

It probably took a while.

The female secretary walked in hurriedly: "President, there is a foreigner at the front desk who wants to meet you."

Chen Weidong had already told them that if a foreigner appeared at the company's front desk, they must notify him immediately.

Even though the foreigner looked a little sloppy, she rushed over to report as soon as possible. This is the basic quality of a secretary.

Chen Weidong was overjoyed and immediately said: "Invite him here immediately!"

A stone that had been hanging in my heart for a long time finally fell to the ground.

Otherwise, he can only choose another plan.

"Awei, is this foreigner really as powerful as you said?" Chen Jie asked in disbelief when seeing his excited look.

Li Yun also didn't believe that there couldn't be such a powerful person in this world.

"You will know then."

Chen Weidong smiled and didn't explain much.

Soon, a foreigner in his fifties appeared in the office.

He has an angular face, a wide forehead, and a pair of thick round glasses hanging on the straight bridge of his nose.

Through the lens, you can vaguely see the enlarged skin wrinkles.

The blond hair that should have been dazzling has become a bit dull and curly due to being unkempt for many years.

Not only that, there was a slightly strange smell coming from his body.

If a woman sees him, she usually thinks of him as a homeless man.

"Are you Chen?"

The middle-aged man just looked at Chen Weidong, and a strong intuition emerged in his heart, it was him!

"Hello, Bull Kruger!"

Chen Weidong looked him over, stretched out his hand with a smile, and read a name.

"Oh my god! Is it really you!?"

The middle-aged foreigner was very excited and also stretched out his right hand and shook it tightly with Chen Weidong.

He didn't expect that the real person named "chen" was so young, it was incredible!

Last year, he suddenly received a mysterious email one afternoon.

He was still very depressed at the time. He had just registered his email address a few days ago, and he hadn't had time to tell anyone yet. How could someone send him an email?

However, when he clicked on the email content, something even more surprising happened!

Because it is his personal information!

Everything from name, address, and life experience from childhood to adulthood is written in detail.

You must know that when he was 12 years old, he no longer used his "real name".

When you are in your fifties, it is very scary to be suddenly told your childhood name by a stranger.

The most frightening thing is that he is the last group of children in the "Source of Life Project", and he accurately told such extremely secretive events.

This is the most deadly.

Most of the people who know his true identity have died long ago, and even if they are still alive, they must be eighty or ninety years old.

Even a few years ago, he had infiltrated the CIA in the United States through the Internet, but no files about him could be found in it.

Therefore, he has been living in a remote town in a certain region of Eastern Europe doing research under a "fake" identity over the years.

Especially after the fall of the Berlin Wall, he became even more reclusive.

"Professor Kruger! Welcome to our Infinity Company!" Chen Jie came over and shook hands with him warmly.

From what Ah Wei said, he is a fanatical scientist who integrates biology, physics, chemistry, mechanics, materials, and computer science. He is a general scientist.

Although he is not considered top-notch in each subject area, overall, the fact that one person can master so much knowledge is definitely the ceiling of intelligence.

Talent, absolute talent!

The middle-aged foreigner frowned and said, "I haven't agreed yet."

He had too many doubts and wanted Chen Weidong to help him answer them. It was precisely because of this curiosity that he came here all the way.

"Professor Kruger, what I said in the email before is still valid."

Chen Weidong smiled, invited him to sit on the sofa, and made him a cup of coffee.

"The conditions in China are too crude, and the research equipment is also very backward. I'm afraid you can't provide the environment I require."

Krueger shook his head and expressed his worries without politeness.

Although in the email, Chen Weidong said that he could provide him with huge funds to support his research on some special projects, there are many instruments that cannot be owned by just having money.

Under the blockade of the United States, China does not have these conditions at all.
