Chapter 837
Meyers shook his head, "It's none of our business, we just invited him to speak, it was the news reporters who asked the questions, not our people, it's none of our business ......"
"But ......"
"Professor Shekaras, this is a fight between those capitalists and politicians, and it is not good for either of us to be offended, so it is wisest to choose to stand by and watch."
Meyers paused and continued, "Mr. Li Linfei is a smart capitalist, the lower age gives him the opportunity to disguise himself, he is not simple ...... this matter he should have anticipated and prepared accordingly, so don't worry."
Professor Shekaras sighed, "The world would be better off with a little less collusion, he's an excellent entrepreneur, and I'm looking forward to seeing him collaborate with the capitalists of the United States of America to create something more beneficial to the development of the world than tit for tat."
Meyers smiled and said no more. At the lecture table.
Li Linfei, who had heard this question, did not change his face.
As Myles had said, since he had come to MU to give a public lecture, he was also prepared to respond to such questions.
Li Linfei smiled and said, "This gentleman, I don't know if you have ever heard of the saying: the survival of the fittest."
"If we are to be condemned because more advanced technology has eliminated inferior technology, then I think this society, rather than evolve, should simply regress to the primitive era."
The corners of the reporter's mouth twitched, revealing a look of embarrassment.
Li Linfei: "During the evolution of the times, there are inevitably some innocent people who are affected by the ripples, there is no way to avoid this, just like when your United States started a local war on the grounds of maintaining world peace, many innocent civilians died due to the ripples of gunfire."
"Obviously, those investors and workers in the inter are much better than that, at least they are still alive, they just lost their wealth and jobs."
Speaking of this, the smile on Li Linfei's face grew even stronger, "I am sorry and regretful for the bankruptcy of inter investors and the closure of factories in the related industrial chain caused by Future Technology's graphene chips."
"If I am to be responsible, it's actually no problem, as long as the shareholders of inter are willing to give up more than 50% of their shares, I am also willing to take over the current inter."
Since the launch of Future Technology's graphene chip, inter's space has been continuously squeezed, although the room for survival is being continuously squeezed under the dumping of Future Technology.
However, inter's influence in the world is still there, certain aspects of equipment and technology, still leading the world, its value is still not to be underestimated, if inter is willing to be acquired by Future Technology, Li Linfei would not mind spending a large amount of money to receive them.
However, it was clear that this was not possible, and even if the shareholders of inter wanted to sell, the US White House would stop them.
As a section of the audience, along with the reporter who asked the question, turned blue.
Li Linfei continued, "Although, Future Technology's graphene chips have impacted the chip market and put some workers out of work, our entertainment companies, hotel groups, and takeaways, among others, have closed the gap in this area."
"According to incomplete statistics, the number of jobs created by Future Group within the United States, indirectly or directly, reached 700,000."
"This number, which is rising, is expected to double tenfold, or even more, within the next two years."
"So, in terms of benefiting society, I personally believe that the benefits of what FutureTech is doing outweigh the disadvantages, and if anyone wants to criticise me in this regard, I'm sorry, I don't accept it."
"Okay, next question."
Reasoned and sharp-tongued, Li Linfei's forceful attitude caused the scene to become nothing but the sound of clicking photos.
A reporter asked, "Mr. Li Linfei, may I ask what your goal is, do you want to become the richest man in the world? If so, how soon do you think you can reach that goal?"
Li Linfei smiled faintly, "My goal is ...... to change the world, to promote the progress of the times, and to strive to install a fusion engine in the entire apparatus of human civilisation."
"Do you want to become the richest man in the world? I didn't have much in mind, but when you asked that, I realized again that it seems great if a Chinese person can become the richest man in the world?"
Li Linfei's expression looked a bit playful as he continued, "As for how long it would take to become the richest man in the world, I don't think it should take long, a year ...... no, half a year should be enough."
Half a year? The scene was in an uproar, with many of the audience muttering in low tones. Various camera equipment frantically adjusted their angles to focus on Li Linfei, capturing the changes in his expression.
However, at this moment, Li Linfei looked calm, as if what he said was not a prediction, but more like a given fact.
"This Chinese guy, he's talking cocky ......"
"Six months? My little darling, although you have now reached the top ten in the world, that doesn't mean you can easily become number one."
"I remember his current wealth is more than eighty billion dollars, right? Being the richest man in the world in six months, does he mean he can make another US$40 billion or so in six months?"
"Haha, that's the most arrogant thing I've heard this year."
"Li Linfei has the capital to be arrogant, we are not qualified to judge him indiscriminately."
"If he can really succeed, then I won't believe in Jesus anymore, I'll believe in him instead."
Chapter 838
The audience was pointing and pointing, most of them reported Li Linfei's words with derision, thinking that he had drifted and that not many people thought he could pull it off. In fact, they were right.
Even though it had taken Li Linfei more than two years to build up his wealth to more than US$80 billion, it had taken two years.
Moreover, in the midst of these two years, Li Linfei had consumed many markets and opportunities, and next, it would undoubtedly be more difficult to continue to make forty billion dollars in six months.
Many Americans feel that this is unrealistic, but what they don't know is,, this is only the income of the United States and China, the European road market as well as the South American market has not been opened yet, especially Europe, once the market is opened, not to mention forty billion, hundred billion is possible.
"Well, that's it for today's speech and Q&A, thank you." Li Linfei didn't say much, and after throwing down these words, he walked straight down the lectern.
When he came in front of Meyers and the others, he did not speak either, but just gave him a rather thoughtful look.
Meyers was the first to smile, "Mr. Li Linfei, thank you for giving us a wonderful speech."
Li Linfei smiled back, "Mr Meyers, I also thank you for teaching me a lesson about what it means to be a snarky American."
Meyers' face was stunned as he looked at Li Linfei in dismay, obviously not expecting him to make a blatant accusation in such an occasion.
Li Linfei did not care about Meyers' expression and continued, "This time when I came to the United States, I encountered blackmail and was targeted in public, which is far from my ideal of a free country, I am very disappointed in MU and disappointed in the United States."
"Mr. Lee, I'm really very sorry about what just happened, those questions were not arranged by us ......"
Meyers, somewhat helpless, explained with a shrug.
"But you have the right to stop it in advance, don't you?" Li Linfei smiled without laughing.
Meyers was speechless, it was true, but they didn't do that. Pierce sighed, "We just teach and discuss academics, we don't get involved in the games you play with each other."
Li Linfei did not deny it and smiled slightly, "If that's true, then I don't think there is any need for the foundation of MU, to exist, I originally prepared 200 million and wanted to donate it to MU as a gift, but now it seems that I am being self-absorbed."
Meyers pupils shrink slightly, you want to donate money to us, two hundred million?
"Really, why didn't you say so in advance? Meyers' gaze flashed and he was busy saying, "Mr. Li, I am very sorry for what happened before, once again I apologise to you, I hope you can forgive us for our mistake."
Li Linfei waved his hand, "You don't need to apologise, because the matter has already passed, and the worst that can happen is just that I will be called arrogant and arrogant by you Americans, all this, I don't care."
"Then, for the reception this evening, you see ......" said Pierce.
Li Linfei shook his head and rubbed his temples, "I'm a bit unwell, I can't make it to your reception."
"That ......"
"Mr. Meyers, I still have something to do, I'll leave first, goodbye."
With those words, Li Linfei took a step and brushed past Pierce, crossing straight towards the outside of the auditorium.
Meyers froze in place, his face turning cloudy. Next to him, several members of MU's school committee came up, rambling.
"This guy said he was going to donate $200 million to us?"
"I heard that, I think that's what he said, but he just got targeted on stage, will he still donate to us?"
"I don't think so ......"
"FK, you stupid pigs, I told you we should have stopped those reporters who were asking questions from messing around, $200 million!"
"Okay Shaq, don't look like you've lost your mind, there's a lot of people watching down there."
"Li Linfei is a bastard, if he's not going to donate, why is he still talking about it, damn it!"
"Alas, the fault in this matter doesn't lie with him, the problem lies with ourselves."
"Principal, I told you before, I shouldn't have stood by and done nothing about this, it's useless even if I regret it now."
"......"
The chatter on the side of Meyers and the others gradually died down, but on everyone's face, a very sad expression could be seen.
Two hundred million ah ...... just like this is gone, the heart is so painful and hard to bear.
Li Linfei did not expect that his last casual remark would actually bring such a big impact to a group of people from MiU.
He didn't know this, and even if he did, he wouldn't have felt remorseful, but would have gloated.
The donation of $200 million to MU was a true statement of his, which he had thought of when he arrived, in order to establish cooperation with local American universities, such as MU, in order to solidify the power of Yuan Yang in the region.
At the same time, he would also use this opportunity to get some study places and send some potential employees from China to MU's business school for professional MBA training.
Now, it seems that MU is not very reliable, so forget it.
Of course, the 200 million was RMB, not US dollars, and the fact that Meyers and the others mistook it for US dollars was their business, not Li Linfei's.
Surrounded by Johansson and the others, Li Linfei quickly walked out of the auditorium.
At the exit, dozens of media reporters who had been waiting for the event were already gathered here.
When they saw Li Linfei coming out, they swarmed around him and blocked his way, each saying their own questions.
Li Linfei, however, ignored them and, with a few bodyguards driving the way, quickly stepped into the caravan and left the MiU Business School.
It was likely that he would encounter difficulties during his lecture at the University.
Li Linfei was prepared for this, so he managed to cope with it quite well.
However, at the same time, he was also rather disappointed.
