Technological Hegemony

An Ran was not in his office. The secretary told Luo Jia that he went to the ultrasonic motor experiment site to personally grasp the most important research and development topic at the moment.

"Tell him, I'll wait here," said Luo Jia.

The secretary backed out, and Luo Jia played with the treasures in An Ran's office.

An Ran is a fan of Gundam, and also likes Battlestar and Colonial Armor Cape, so he collected many figures and posters and put them in his office.

Luo Jia has seen most of these figures, but now there is no figure of Lin Mingmei in Battlestar, replaced by a photo of him and senior sister Qi Mengzhou.

The photo was taken recently, and it was taken at the East China Sea Bridge. An Ran looked awake, and Qi Mengzhou affectionately held An Ran's arm. Behind him was the huge monster-like Karmen Vortex Street generator array.

"Senior Qi really has a good figure." Luo Jia muttered.

The glamorous Qi Mengzhou has a graceful figure that makes all male animals squirt nosebleeds, with a protruding front and back, dressed like a royal sister, wearing high heels and short skirts, An Ran stands with her, like a shy big Boys, textbook-level sibling love.

Soon after, An Ran came back, and he said to Luo Jia very frankly, "I plan to get married soon."

Luo Jia was stunned on the spot.

On the bridal chamber wedding night, when the gold medal was signed, it was said that getting married was considered a major event in life, but An Ran was able to say the news so lightly, as if to him, getting married was very simple, just a step in a scientific experiment.

"Who is the bride?" Luo Jia asked knowingly.

"Hiraba Sakura." An Ran said.

Puff~

Luo Jia was about to drink a cup of black tea, when he heard the name Hiraba Sakura, he spit it out immediately.

An Ran had a smirk on her face, "I didn't expect that Mr. Luo would be so embarrassed. Just kidding, of course it's Qi Mengzhou. Junior Sister has someone she admires."

After a pause, An Ran said solemnly: "Meng Zhou is not young anymore, we can't keep dragging it on forever, we don't plan to hold the so-called ceremony, just meet the parents of both parties during the Spring Festival holiday."

"Give you a month's vacation, go out and have a good honeymoon." Luo Jia said.

An Ran gave Luo Jia a blank look, "Let me leave the lab? You might as well kill me."

"Everything is planned. It was boring to go home during the Chinese New Year. I just happened to get married during the Chinese New Year. I didn't delay anything, and Mengzhou also agreed with my plan..."

Luo Jia was very speechless, An Ran is such a freak, she actually thinks that getting married and going on honeymoon is a waste of time, what's even more weird is that Qi Mengzhou, with the superior conditions of a senior, has been waiting for An Ran for so many years, love is something that science can't explain yes.

Unknowingly, the partners who started the business together back then have all gotten married one after another, Hong Tao, Di Wuchang, and now it's An Ran's turn.

Although Li Moran is not married, he has a cohabiting girlfriend who is also a native of Shanghai. She is only a junior this year and is still young. It is estimated that when his girlfriend graduates, he should hold a wedding.

"Not long ago, when you saw Junior Sister, did she say something to you that shouldn't be said?" An Ran suddenly asked Luo Jia seriously.

Luo Jia thought for a while, "Oh, Hiraha Sakura asked me to pay attention to the CES exhibition in Las Vegas. Immediately after the exhibition, Tesla teamed up with Bell Labs to launch the 3.5-generation autonomous driving. It should be her advance I have already received the news, so kindly remind me."

An Ran nodded, "That's right, because my junior sister has met you in Shanghai, she was suspected of being a traitor by the Denso Group and was fired. Although this is not the result of you, there are also reasons for you."

Luo Jia was dumbfounded. Recalling that, he did tell Ping Yuying that this car war would reach the point where she might lose her job...

 …

The wind chimes sounded on the porch behind the house, and the waitresses in kimonos and clogs,

Sitting under the wind chime, holding a volume of notes with flamboyant handwriting, esoteric and difficult to understand, as if holding a precious treasure, carefully looking at it, and gently turning the pages.

This is a kiosk called Kikui in Minato-ku, Tokyo.

Although Chinese people talk about kaiseki, Kobe beef, sushi and other neon dishes, in the eyes of neon locals, restaurant is the most upscale existence. Ordinary neon people think that they have been to It is an honor to eat at the kiosk.

If you don’t know the inside story, you might think that Kikui Ryotei is a park. In Tokyo Bay, where every inch of land is expensive, building rockery and flowing water on a large area and planting bamboo and chrysanthemums is really not something that ordinary restaurants can do.

Waiters at kiosks are usually female and are called female generals.

It is not easy to become a female general. She needs to be well-educated, learn ikebana and tea art, and have a very high level of self-cultivation. Due to the influx of Chinese tourists in recent years, it would be best if she can speak Chinese.

"Sakura, there are guests from Huaxia, and the proprietress asked you to receive them."

Chiyoko was wearing wooden clogs, making a rattling sound, trotting all the way to Hiraha Sakura, seeing the note in her hand, she immediately let out a sound.

"It's such a profound knowledge, it seems to be chemistry?" Chiyoko said.

"No, it's physics, about the theory of energy waves." Hiraha Sakura said, she put away the notes, and carefully hid them in the innermost layer of the kimono, clinging to her underwear.

"I can't see that Sakura can not only speak English and Chinese, but also understands physics. It's really aggrieved to be a female general at the restaurant." Chiyoko said.

Hiraha Sakura smiled, but did not answer.

As a dignified Ph.D. in electrical engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Sakura Hiraha certainly understands physics.

And this notebook was a parting gift given to her by Luo Jia when she met Luo Jia for the first time three years ago. This notebook has always accompanied Hiraba Sakura, and it is the most precious treasure in her life. .

The guests from Huaxia were very generous. They ordered the most expensive 380,000 yen set meal at the kiosk. Although there were only two guests, a man and a woman, the set meal was ordered for three people, plus a bottle of expensive Wakayama sake. Ginjo.

The female generals muttered to themselves, feeling that Huaxia is getting more and more powerful now. Originally, the restaurant had a tradition of not accepting strangers, but as the neon economy continues to decline, there are now fewer and fewer local customers. In order to survive, the restaurant has to Receiving foreign guests who are difficult to serve.

"Actually, Chinese guests are fine. After all, they are countries with relatively close cultural traditions. The most difficult to receive are Russian guests. They usually drink a lot of wine and like to sing loudly. When they meet, it is really a headache."

A female general who has worked for more than ten years told Hiraha Sakura that Hiraha Sakura just started working at the kiosk, and everyone took good care of her.

Hiraba Sakura nodded slightly, and walked out of the kitchen with three servings of Shirako tofu. This was not ordinary tofu, but processed into tofu with cod eggs. It was an appetizer before the meal.

Pushing open the door of the Japanese room, Hiraha Sakura was stunned for a moment, and then showed a surprised expression.

"Senior Brother, Senior Sister!"

Ping Yuying called out, it turned out that the two guests, a man and a woman, were An Ran and his fiancée Qi Mengzhou.

As for why the two of them ordered three set meals, it was naturally also for Hiraba Sakura.

After the surprise, a feeling of grievance welled up in her heart, Hiraba Sakura felt her nose sore and her eye sockets turned red.

She has reason to feel aggrieved. At the beginning, Ping Yuying made up her mind to help her hometown, even if she would become rivals with Luo Jia in the future.

However, when she came back from Huaxia, what she received was a cold dismissal letter from the HR department. Her colleagues looked at her as if they were looking at a rebellious traitor.

The reason for all of this is that the company received a report from the masses, and Ping Yuying met Luo Jia in Shanghai.

Not only the Denso Group fired Hiraba Sakura, but any neon company will not hire her again, because she is a traitor among the neon people.

Although Hiraha Sakura looks and has a lolita figure, she has a strong personality. She doesn't want to stay at home, so she came out to find a job as a waitress.

For this reason, she was severely scolded by her father. Since ancient times, no one in the Ping family has ever done such a lowly job, and Ping Yuying is the first one.

Senior sister Qi Mengzhou stood up, took the plate from Ping Yuying's hand, and helped her to sit between herself and An Ran.

"Senior Brother, Senior Sister, why are you here?" Ping Yuying wiped her eyes and asked.

An Ran shrugged helplessly, "It's not that Luo Jia entrusted him, it's obviously his own business, but he asked me and Mengzhou to wipe his ass."

Qi Mengzhou stretched out his hand and twisted An Ran's shoulder, "Look at what you said, he kindly let us go on vacation, if it wasn't for Luo Jia, you would have brought me here?"

An Ran didn't speak anymore, but Ping Yu Ying could hear some kind of ambiguity from the conversation between the two of them.

"You?" Hiraha Sakura blinked.

"We are going to get married soon." Qi Mengzhou looked happy.

"Ah! That's great! Congratulations to both of you!" Hiraba Sakura got excited, and began to bow habitually, but was held back by An Ran.

"Sit down and have a drink together." An Ran shook the bottle of Wakayama Sake, and said to Ping Yuying with a smile, "In addition to ordering me to bring your senior sister on vacation, Luo Jia also asked us to bring you a an invitation."
