Chapter 2105: A Shocking Ident.i.ty
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“However, in this matter, whether it’s Lingyun Group, the Western semiconductor giants, or the two great nations behind them, there is a significant gap in scale. Even if I win this time, it still won’t change the fundamental structure,” Lin Yi said.
“Winning a hundred times won’t overturn the situation. A single defeat could lead to irreparable disaster.”
“If a hundred victories aren’t enough, we’ll win a thousand, or ten thousand! This is the path we must take for the revival of our nation! Even if it means death, we can’t retreat one step!”
“Hu…”
Lin Yi took a deep breath. “Aunt Shen, I understand what you mean.”
On the other end of the phone, there was a long silence.
“Child, you’ve worked hard.”
“Rebuilding the glory of Huaxia is a duty we cannot s.h.i.+rk.”
Lin Yi hung up the phone, feeling the immense weight of responsibility pressing down on him.
“What time does the reception start?”
“Eight o’clock tonight,” Qi Xianzhao answered.
Lin Yi glanced at his watch. “It’s almost time. I’ll head over to take a look. You stay at the hotel and don’t leave for now. If anything else comes up, you can handle it outside.”
“Understood.”
Qi Xianzhao stood up and nodded heavily.
Unknowingly, Lin Yi had already become the spiritual symbol of Lingyun Group, the driving force behind the entire organization.
With him around, problems that would have seemed insurmountable at other times no longer appeared so daunting.
…
The Mandarin Oriental Hotel at Heed Park in Lundun was one of the most luxurious hotels in the area.
In recent years, thanks to its growing reputation, it had become the go-to venue for gatherings of the wealthy and business dinners.
The semiconductor industry’s reception was being held there.
On the eighth floor of the hotel, in the innermost presidential suite.
In various parts of the room, eight or nine people sat in different postures. They were all dressed meticulously in s.h.i.+rts or suits.
However, their sitting postures were far from formal and could even be described as casual.
Anyone familiar with finance or the tech industry would recognize that all the people in this room were leading figures in the semiconductor field.
They came from world-cla.s.s semiconductor companies like ASML, TSMC, Micron, and Texas Instruments.
Some were technical experts, while others were business masterminds, but they all shared one common trait.
In their respective companies, they held absolute authority.
If these people were to perish, the global semiconductor industry would be set back at least three years, if not longer!
Zzzzz!
At that moment, a faint electric hum was heard at the door. Soon after, the door was pushed open.
A blonde woman with blue eyes, accompanied by a man in a blue suit, walked in.
The woman wore bold red lipstick, as striking as fresh blood. She was dressed in a simple LV T-s.h.i.+rt and gray fitness leggings. While her appearance and figure were quite good, she seemed somewhat out of place among the elite professionals in the room.
The man with her was Walker’s partner, Evans.
The woman’s name was Helice. Like Evans, she was one of the twelve wardens of the Freemasons.
“Welcome, esteemed senior members. I’m glad you could make it here today,” Helice said with a smile.
She seemed like a bubbly hostess, warmly greeting her guests.
Besides holding significant power in their companies, everyone in the room had one other thing in common.
They were all members of the Freemasons.
However, the influence of the Freemasons extended far beyond this room.
Some high-ranking politicians were also members.
Globally, their reach was much greater than most people imagined.
This was why they had banded together and were even willing to alter semiconductor architectures to suppress Lingyun Group.
Because they had the backing of the Freemasons.
As the two entered, the group adjusted their postures. A bald man spoke up.
“I think the risks of this approach are too high. It could severely impact our industry.”
His name was Dirk, Senior Vice President at Texas Instruments.
“Lingyun Group’s influence is indeed growing, but their global market share is almost negligible. Using this method against them is clearly inappropriate. It doesn’t align with our long-term interests.”
Helice didn’t respond but instead looked toward a middle-aged man standing by the window.
“Wendevi, Lingyun Group’s main compet.i.tor is your ASML. Do you feel the same way?”
“Lingyun Group is indeed impressive, but I agree with Dirk. They’re not yet capable of entering the global stage. We won’t give them that chance,” Wendevi said.
“But there’s one person we must deal with. If possible, I hope we can take action.”
“Who?”
“Shen Tianzhuo.”
A glint of sharpness flashed in Wendevi’s eyes, his expression exceptionally serious.
“He’s the Senior Vice President of Lingyun Group and the lead in lithography machine production and research. Without him, Lingyun Group wouldn’t have been able to bring their lithography machine to market so quickly.”
“I know of him. We’ll find a way to handle it. Keeping him permanently in Meiguo won’t be a problem,” Helice said.
“However, what I want to know is if anyone has different views on our plans?”
“We’ve discussed it earlier and believe that this entire plan is unnecessary.”
The speaker was a young man named Lee Yongchul, the first-in-line heir of the Samsung Group.
“I understand your perspective, but there’s something you’re unaware of. The true mastermind behind Lingyun Group’s president is a man named Lin Yi,” Helice explained.
“On the surface, he appears to be just a businessman, but in reality, he’s the leader of Team 1 in the Central Guards Brigade, and his skill level is exceptionally high.”
Hearing this, everyone’s gaze turned toward Helice.
This piece of information was indeed shocking to them.
A young man who had built a world-cla.s.s semiconductor giant in just three years was already an impressive feat.
But to think he also had such a background!
This was something no one had antic.i.p.ated.
“From a business perspective, Lingyun Group’s rise is undoubtedly supported by the Central Guards Brigade. Without them, they wouldn’t have emerged so quickly in the semiconductor industry,” Helice continued.
“Right now, Huaxia has already become the second-largest economy in the world. That incredible land will provide them with the greatest support. If you give them a few more years, they’ll pose a ma.s.sive threat to all of you.”
Pahhh…
Helice pulled out a cigarette, lit it, and exhaled a puff of smoke.
“You mustn’t underestimate the Central Guards Brigade. Their influence is vast. If we don’t eliminate Lingyun Group now, your future interests will surely be affected.”
