Fake Husband of the Glamorous CEO-Chapter 352: How did you know Elder Gu gave me the project?
Ever since Gu Feng summoned him for a meeting, the other Hall Masters in the institute felt that Meng Wei seemed to be walking on air these past two days.
During the meeting, when other departments were fighting for small favors and benefits for their units, he actually remained aloof and didn’t express any opinion.
While Hall Master Hou, who had just secured the monitoring station project, inevitably faced some envy from his colleagues, the usually urgent Meng Wei surprisingly offered his congratulations to Hall Master Hou’s department.
This took everyone else by surprise.
Could it be that he was being modest?
That wasn’t likely.
As a force of rugged soldiers from the Military Martial Arts Compound, Meng Wei was usually quite assertive!
The power he backed was top-notch within the entire group.
The Military Force Group was backed by Yu Gongfeng.
Additionally, the current highest authority, Pangu, was under the control of the Military Force, a colossus that could dominate all competitors.
Generating nearly a hundred trillion RMB for the national treasury each year, it was an existence that other departments couldn’t even compete against for resources!
Moreover, Elder Gu, now at the helm, was the absolute core of the Military Force!
Although it was said that the sea, land, and air camps would be reduced in the future, even potentially abolishing Hall Master level departments, this would only weaken the influence of the middle and lower levels within the institute.
As long as Gu Feng, the legitimate Elder and an Original Shareholder, was present, the Military Force was not to be underestimated by other departments.
So, Meng Wei sitting quietly in the meeting room without speaking indeed caught the attention of other Hall Masters.
Hall Master Hou, who grew up with Gu Yuan, looked towards Meng Wei and coughed lightly, "Old Meng, do you have anything to add?"
Meng Wei, "How do you know I’ve met with Elder Gu?"
The crowd, "..."
Meng Wei, "You all know about the project Elder Gu gave to my department?"
The crowd was suddenly startled.
"Elder Gu gave you a project?"
"What project?"
"Come on, tell us what the project is?"
The two dozen or so Hall Masters present were all captivated.
After all, any project that Elder Gu was involved with was bound to be extraordinary.
The early-stage cancer drug project had brought the Commerce Department’s annual revenue to 5 trillion RMB.
Then there was the Elixir project under the Pangu department, currently supplied to martial artists and cultivators around the world, which had reached an annual revenue of 10 trillion RMB, even with insufficient production capacity.
And the Teleportation Array project, which had reached an annual revenue scale of 60 trillion!
The recent monitoring station project given to Hall Master Hou was also expected to not fall short of 2 trillion in annual revenue.
This wasn’t even counting the economic ecosystem that Gu Feng had established for Shencheng City with the Spiritual Field. Previously, Dongguang’s annual tax revenue was only 1 trillion RMB, but now the annual tax revenue of just Shencheng City has broken the trillion mark.
Shanzhong City, too, due to the Teleportation Array, had seen benefits, creating 8 million job positions, with tax revenue surpassing that of Shencheng City.
Thus, the ones with impressionistic thinking felt that the project given by Elder Gu could definitely not be a small one.
As the group bombarded Meng Wei with questions, Gu Yuan also showed curiosity.
As a member of the Gu family, he knew that Gu Feng had looked for Meng Wei, but did he actually give Meng Wei a project?
Feeling the attention of everyone, Meng Wei couldn’t help but feel slightly proud, "Compared to those big projects, mine might not be considered a major project, but I think it’s sufficient for our department."
Hall Master Song, "Spit it out already, what’s the project? How come soldiers like you beat around the bush so much?"
"Exactly, just say what the project is!
"We’re not going to steal it, just tell us what the project is and whether it’s feasible or not, don’t get too happy too soon."
A group of people were getting anxious.
Mainly because everyone wanted to know what project Elder Gu had prepared this time?
Meng Wei said, "This project fits the future martial artists and cultivators, providing them with a simulated training environment. From my conversation with the Elder, I’ve roughly understood that it can use other planetary worlds as simulation scenarios, allowing anyone to engage in combat training in that world, thereby avoiding the many issues where martial artists and cultivators recklessly destroy and disturb social order."
Boom!
The pupils of everyone present instantly dilated.
Some drew a sharp breath.
Because the market for this project was huge!
Now, just the scale of martial artists with combat power has reached 300 million, and this figure has been skyrocketing every year. With the future breakthrough of ten billion, or even twenty billion in population, the scale of martial artists to cultivators could reach several billion.
If these people engage in a virtual battlefield for real combat experience at least once a day, like playing a game, then the number of online players would be close to several billion!
Even if it only cost 100 RMB per person to enter the battlefield once, and 1 billion people trained each day, that would be a daily revenue of 100 billion!
This revenue ceiling could even match the earnings of the Teleportation Array!
Quiet!
All the Hall Masters on site were deathly silent, some swallowing saliva.
Envy!
Absolutely drooling.
No one first doubted whether this project could successfully take off, because the person who proposed it was Elder Gu.
If he said it was possible, he never broke his word!
"Old Meng," one of the Hall Masters said with a sheepish smile, looking at Meng Wei, "will your department be able to..."
Meng Wei knew what he was about to say and cheerfully interrupted him, "Don’t worry about our department. We can handle this project on our own. You guys are all busy, so there’s no need to trouble everyone."
That’s what he said, but others still eagerly tried to persuade him.
But Meng Wei had already made up his mind and got up, leaving the conference room content and proud.
The remaining Hall Masters looked at each other, some more or less inevitably turning their eyes towards Li Yan and Gu Yuan.
Someone tried to follow Meng Wei’s example and asked Li Yan, "Hall Master Li, do you have Elder Gu’s phone number?"
Li Yan smiled, "I’ll give it to you, but do you dare call him?"
The question stopped the person, who then chickened out.
Given Gu Feng’s current status in the group, it truly wasn’t something these Hall Masters dared to overstep.
To put it bluntly, if Gu Feng pointed out any Hall Master, that position was likely to change hands!
That’s the value of being an original shareholder.
By the time this generation of Hall Masters completely retires, the future new Hall Masters would probably all be devoted fans of Gu Feng.
After leaving the conference room, Li Yan caught up with Meng Wei and said, "Mr. Meng, when the project gets going, secure us a stable training spot. Our soldiers will need a training ground then."
Meng Wei scolded him playfully, "What are you talking about? Pangu is a department that all units must unconditionally cooperate with. Whatever you need, just tell me directly, there’s no need to be so polite."

When Lin Yue regularly returned to Jingbei Institute to accompany her son, she noticed a peculiar phenomenon.
As she walked around the institute’s lake park with her son, men and women, young and old, would greet her warmly and respectfully, "Good day, Young Madam."
Normally, Lin Yue didn’t lack such courtesy, but today, why were these people so formal?
Even from afar, they would specifically run over to bow and greet her.
When she got home, her mother Yu Ling explained the reason, "Your husband has given a grand project gift to the military folks, and all the direct descendants in the institute are overjoyed. They can’t thank your husband directly, so they’re expressing their thanks to you."
