A person is in high spirits when encountering joyful events. Just as Zhang Tianxing was in high spirits, Feng Changlun brought him good news: the orders had been placed and were just waiting for delivery.
"Our first mobile phone is an OEM product. To be honest, I'm a bit disappointed. This isn't the result I wanted," Feng Changlun said with a hint of dejection.
Zhang Tianxing retorted, "You're not the only one disappointed. I am too. You've only been with the team for a few days, and how long has our team been established? We've applied for a few patents, and our achievements are few, so we can only start with OEM."
That's just how it is; you can't get fat with one bite.
"As long as you give me time, I can design it. I have the capability," Feng Changlun assured Zhang Tianxing. Besides, this was the kind of money he made, and it had always been his dream to produce a domestically made mobile phone.
"This is your mission, and I will support you wholeheartedly. But this has nothing to do with our first product being an OEM," Zhang Tianxing's attitude was very clear.
Whatever you need, I will fully support. But before you achieve results, my production line needs to operate.
"Alright, then we can only settle for the next best thing and apply for an appearance patent. Not having a single patent for an OEM product is too disheartening," Feng Changlun had nothing more to say.
Any breakthrough requires time. He had just joined and hadn't produced any remarkable results yet, but he had confidence in himself.
However, he wasn't optimistic about Zhang Tianxing's PHS technology. This technology was outdated, and he hadn't expected Zhang Tianxing to vigorously produce PHS phones.
Feng Changlun had discussed this issue with Zhang Tianxing many times. Zhang Tianxing just smiled and said, "Senior Feng, please expedite the chip design and manufacturing. Then we can produce our own phones. This technology is just a temporary measure. The factory is operational, and we can't let it sit idle. We might as well earn something."
For some reason, Zhang Tianxing held PHS in high regard. Feng Changlun felt something was amiss. Technology is the primary productive force; would an outdated technology be widely adopted?
There was no other way. Zhang Tianxing was the boss, so they had to follow the boss's intentions. In any case, they were just producing some OEM phones, which could serve as training for the workers. Feng Changlun was confident that his own products would make Zhang Tianxing money; otherwise, Siemens wouldn't have invited him. He possessed genuine talent.
Just as Zhang Tianxing was preparing to leave America, he once again encountered FBI agents.
"Zhang Tianxing, we meet again," the sexy and charming female agent said with a knowing smile.
"It's you. I'm not interested. If I've broken your laws, then arrest me. If you have business, please contact my lawyer. You're free to go," Zhang Tianxing directly asked them to leave.
It seems that even this wicked capitalist society has its merits. After all, having money makes things much more convenient.
Upon hearing Zhang Tianxing's words, Agent Jane's beautiful face contorted. She was on the verge of going mad.
Why? Why? She somewhat resented this wicked capitalist society. Why could rich people be so arrogant?
"Zhang Tianxing, don't celebrate too soon. I'm here to inform you that you are not allowed to leave Boston without the permission of our bureau. You must get our approval before leaving," Agent Jane said fiercely and then left.
She didn't give Zhang Tianxing a chance to ask.
Damn it, who are these people? Zhang Tianxing was speechless. He had no choice but to ask Jimmy about everything.
"Lawyer Jimmy, I have a situation here. The FBI informed me today that I cannot leave Boston without their permission. What should I do?" Zhang Tianxing asked with some helplessness.
He was just a humble student and didn't expect such high-profile treatment from the FBI.
Jimmy was stunned upon hearing this. "Boss Zhang, your treatment is quite high. Most people don't get this kind of attention. But don't worry, I'll handle all of this for you. However, until it's resolved, don't provoke the FBI lightly. In America, this department has a lot of power."
"Alright," Zhang Tianxing was also helpless in the face of this treatment. He never expected things to turn out this way.
In America, such directives are usually issued to scientists with outstanding achievements in certain fields. Zhang Tianxing was merely a student, and he hadn't expected to be on this list.
"They want me to stay here, but I must not let them have their way. I will return home; this is not my home," Zhang Tianxing said in a deep voice.
"Little Boss Zhang, when you're under someone else's roof, you have to bow your head. It's better to discuss this matter at length," Guo Jiajia said with concern, fearing that someone might completely fall out.
"Boss Zhang, don't rush. Leave this matter to me, and I will resolve it for you. It will just take some time," Jimmy said, narrowing his eyes.
"Your law firm's scope of business is quite broad?" Zhang Tianxing asked playfully.
"There's no other way; we've worked hard to be number one in the industry. It mainly depends on the boss's favor."
Jimmy pondered, then suddenly looked up at Zhang Tianxing. "Boss Zhang, how about this: let's directly sue the FBI. Unjustifiably restricting personal freedom, their actions do not conform to the spirit of the rule of law."
"You are the expert; I'll listen to you. I have only one goal, and that is to leave here. I want to return to China," Zhang Tianxing waved his hand, letting Jimmy go down to prepare.
His time in America had been too frustrating. This kind of life was not what he wanted.
Jimmy nodded and left directly. "Boss Zhang, rest assured, your matter is not a big problem. I guarantee it with my professional career."
"That's good. If it's resolved smoothly, I'll give you a big red envelope," Zhang Tianxing offered substantial rewards.
During this period, Zhang Tianxing discovered that Jimmy was a big shot in the American legal world, with superb skills. It seemed he had found a good lawyer.
Just then, Li Dan gracefully floated before Zhang Tianxing.
"Zhang Tianxing, you'll be returning to China soon. Can I ask you for a favor?" Li Dan said, her beautiful cherry lips parting and closing.
"What is it? Tell me. I'll help if I can, but don't blame me if I can't," Zhang Tianxing didn't immediately agree. Li Dan was very clever, and he didn't know what her request would be yet.
"It's like this. I've been abroad for so long, and I told my parents a white lie. I need you to help me cover it up. It's a very simple matter," Li Dan said with a smile, pleadingly.
