Chapter 1272: The Darkest Moment

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lin Yis face was cold.

He walked towards the male a.s.sistant with a dark expression.

He grabbed his hair and forcefully lifted his head.

This is the first and last time. If 1 see you again in the future, prepare for your funeral. If you dont believe me, you can call Caie Mitsui and find out who I am.

The bone-chilling cold made the male a.s.sistant tremble.

It was as if the person standing in front of him was not a human, but a ferocious beast with fangs.

I-I understand.

Lin Yi raised his arm and threw the male a.s.sistant aside. Get lost!

Facing the fierce-looking Lin Yi, the male a.s.sistant didnt dare to stay any longer.

He no longer bore the demeanor he had shown earlier whwen talking to Shen Tianzhuo. Instead, he ran out of the hotel as if he were running for his life.

After the storm ended, the onlookers dispersed one after another. Sun Fuyu went forward and asked,

President Lin, it turns out youre in Yanjing too. Are you here for a meeting?

Lets go upstairs first. This is not a place to talk.

Okay, okay, okay. Lets talk upstairs.

The group took the elevator to Lin Yis room.

I heard that theres a semiconductor conference in Yanjing. Are you guys here for that? Lin Yi asked.

Sun Fuyu nodded. Director Shen brought us here to join as well. Moreover, our photolithography machine has already been developed. We need to file some procedures with the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and prepare to run through the legal processes together.

The project is already complete?

We can already ma.s.s-produce five nanometer chips now, but the yield is still a little low. However, the processes involving the creation of five nanometer chips all over the world are showing signs of failing. Their performance is not very good either.

Thats okay, well take it slow. At least we can catch up to the international standard, Lin Yi said.

But what was that person from Sunrise Land doing here? Was he sent by Caie Mitsui?

Although he asked this, Lin Yi felt that this was unlikely.

After all, he and Caie Mitsui had already openly discussed so many things.

Unless it was for personal matters, it was unlikely that she would disturb him again in the future.

Its not her. Its someone called Mitsui Yamazuki, Shen Tianzhuo said.

I asked around and found out that hes the younger brother of Mitsui Takaya, the head of the Mitsui family. Hes also Caie Mitsuis uncle.

Did he say why he was looking for you?

Shen Tianzhuo took out a cigarette and gave one to Lin Yi and Sun Fuyu, then lit them up.

When we went on a trip to Sunrise Land, their people came to me but I rejected them. 1 didnt expect them to now come to Yanjing.

Lin Yi smoked silently.

There was something worth noting in this matter.

The Mitsui family already knew that Director Shen was working for him.

This was not a good sign.

For a long time, the photolithography machine had been a very secret project. He had protected Director Shen very well, and almost no one knew that he was working for the Lingyun Group.

He could vaguely smell a hint of danger.

However, he could not tell what was wrong. After all, he no longer had any exposed weaknesses.

Unfortunately, he still could not understand the other partys move.

Previously, the Mitsui family had placed all their attention on him.

Now, they had set their sights on Director Shen. Lin Yi could not understand what they were trying to do.

Old Sun, 1 just thought of something. Investigate that person called Mitsui Yamazuki. I want to get his contact information.

Got it, President Lin. Ill go and investigate this now.

Ring ring ring!

Just as they were talking, Shen Tianzhuos phone rang. It was an unknown number.

h.e.l.lo, Dr. Shen. Im Mitsui Yamazuki from the Mitsui family. Im sure you know who I am.

Shen Tianzhuos expression changed and he sat up.

I know who you are, but the two of us have nothing to talk about. Coincidentally, my boss is right beside me. You can talk to him.

With that, Shen Tianzhuo mouthed at Lin Yi.

He signaled him he was now talking to the person called Mitsui Yamazuki.

I cant believe you are trying to poach from me, Lin Yi. As expected of a world-cla.s.s financial group. You really have some skills.

After a long silence, Mitsui Yamazuki said,

What a coincidence. I cant believe 1 actually ran into you. It seems that my plan has failed.

I dont want this to happen again. Your niece knows what Im like. Dont upset me. This wont be good for anyone.

Mr. Lin, I know you have a lot of influence in Huaxia, but please dont underestimate our Mitsui family, Mitsui Yamazuki said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.

No one is omnipotent, including yourself, so dont be too conceited. Our

Mitsui family isnt as weak as you think.

You sound like you want to continue pestering Director Shen.

No, we are not greedy people. Other than Director Shen, you are also our target, Mitsui said.

Our request is also very simple. Either you cooperate with the Mitsui family, or Director Shen does. Mr. Lin, you can slowly consider your options.

Heh

Lin Yi was amused. Dont you find yourself funny? You want to threaten me, yet you are doing so empty-handed?

How could that be? To gain something, you must first lose something. We wouldnt do something so foolish, Mitsui Yamazuki said.

Ill be sending an email to Dr. Shens phone shortly. Mr. Lin can decide whether he wants to cooperate with us after seeing the contents of the email.

Lin Yi narrowed his eyes as a bad feeling arose in his heart.

Sure.

Mr. Lin, please wait a moment. Ill call you back in ten minutes. I hope you will change your mind by then.

With that, Mitsui Yamazuki hung up the phone and did not say anything else.

The call ended and the room fell silent.

What are these Sunrise Landese doing?! Sun Fuyu cursed. d.a.m.n it! I really want to slap them!

Director, calm down, Lu Yuan tried to persuade him.

A few minutes later, Shen Tianzhuo received an email on his phone.

This email alerted the four of them, because this was very likely the trump card of the Mitsui family that made them dare to challenge Lin Yi!

Lin Yi didnt think too much about it. With a cold expression, he opened the email on his phone.

However

When they saw the contents, the expressions of the group froze in an instant. Their bodies seemed to have been frozen solid.

Beads of cold sweat flowed down Sun Fuyu and Lu Yings foreheads. It was as if they were in a world of ice and snow.

That was because the contents of the email was the patented technology of the photolithography machine!

From start to finish, it was all there!

Every single item was the result of their own research!

But now, it had all fallen into this familys hands!

Furthermore, it was all registered under the Mitsui familys name!
