Chapter 465: 459: Excited

The international financial market is always balanced. If someone is losing money, then naturally someone else is making a profit. So, if someone lost more than a trillion Federal coins, then someone else must be profiting the same amount. Although, it’s unlikely that it’s just one investment fund or investment bank.

There will definitely be differences in earnings, some making more, others less. If Finn Lewis is indeed involved, it’s very possible that his earnings are in the billions of Federal coins. But these are all just speculations unless some banks are willing to publish their internal capital flow data, which is obviously unlikely.

But now, Finn Lewis actually has a company under his name that conducts chip research, and it seems to have been established four years ago. At that time, Finn was still a high school student, which suggests that this business could be established by the mysterious fund. Regardless, none of this matters as the important thing is that the Heritage System Central Processor Co., Ltd declared the time of their upcoming press conference, during which they will showcase their first generation CPU product.

With the announcement of this news, netizens in the Flame Nation got thoroughly excited. When the announcement from the North Federation’s Department of Commerce came out, many domestic online media outlets reprinted it immediately. In the comments below these articles, many netizens stated that the North Federation’s suspension might spur Flame Nation to make up its mind to develop its own chips!

Many of Flame Nation’s military weapons came about in the context of Western embargoes and achieved quite good results. Given that military aircraft, helicopters, stealth planes, and even warships can be developed independently, why not chips?

The comments were more about the hopes for the nation. What they didn’t expect was that less than 12 hours later, the national officials gave them a surprise! A complete surprise! Wouldn’t this get people excited? Many netizens commented excitedly, “The North Federation has made a fool of itself this time. If this press conference is successful and the chips produced can indeed be used on a large scale, the North Federation could become a laughing stock worldwide!”

If it were true, the prestige of HSD might decline to the lowest point in history, and now, it seems that the moment is not far off, because the company’s scheduled press conference time is tomorrow morning! Going by this, the other party is already prepared to smack them down hard!

“Let’s go to WY’s headquarters now. The press conference tomorrow is to be held in the WY Headquarters building, right?” Jack Lewis looked at Finn Lewis and asked.

“From the feedback we have received, there are many journalists who want to attend tomorrow. So, we are thinking of renting the sports hall of university F,” Finn Lewis said with a smile. “After all, I am a student of the same university. It’s only natural that I add some fame to my alma mater.”

“Okay, have you talked with the university F about this?” Jack Lewis turned to Finn and asked.

“We’ve already settled it.” Finn Lewis nodded. It was not necessary to discuss such things. He had only casually mentioned it to the headmaster of his university, and they immediately agreed. After all, the world’s attention will be on this event. It means that university F will appear in the view of countries all over the world.

When it comes to fame, even Tsinghua University might not have as many chances. About Flame Nation’s prestigious university F, the headmaster agreed quickly and even let them use the venue for free.

“Okay, let’s go now,” Jack Lewis said directly.

“What’s the hurry? My people are only going over to set up the venue tonight.” Finn Lewis was a bit puzzled. Although the sports hall of University F was to be rented, the venue needed to be set up. Simply putting, they need a new network for the computers using the graphene cpu and other equipment supports. Since it’s like this, they might as well expose some new items.

Many people should have seen the film “Iron Man” and are very interested in the transparent, tablet-like portable computer that Anthony Stark often holds in the movie. This material is made of graphene, the light transmittance of which can reach 92%. It can be made into a transparent and even bendable touchscreen,

Moreover, the feel of the touchscreen and other functions are much better than so-called sapphire screens and others. Also, its operating speed is much faster than other materials, and most importantly, it is power saving!

“We are going over to support you, of course. If your people need to set up the venue, our people will need to inspect the venue. By the way, I’ll introduce you to someone who you will need to liaise with for your future endeavors,” Jack Lewis straightforwardly said.

“Ok, you’re the boss, whatever you say.” Finn Lewis shrugged helplessly, and then got into his car.

“Can I ride in your car, too? I don’t mind, do I?” Seeing Finn get in his car with Olivia Thatcher, Jack Lewis shamelessly followed. Finn had no complaints, even if he did, he couldn’t voice them. In the country, there were very few people who dared to offend Jack Lewis. Who knows what kind of compromising material he has under his control.
