"A couple hundred? Do you think these scientific research projects are wholesale?"
Upon hearing the number Zhang Menglong had mentioned, Old Zhou almost had a heart attack, as Zhang aimed to monopolize the nation's annual scientific research projects single-handedly.
"That's just absurd!"
"Old Zhou, you can't say that," Zhang Menglong said with a mischievous grin, "those projects need to be done by someone, don't they? I can do them quickly and well, and won't cost the government a penny. Either way you slice it, the country profits!"
"Do you even know what these projects are?" Old Zhou directly asked, "Even if I handed those projects over to you, could you really start working on them right away? Just organizing the research domains, creating research plans, and preparing researchers would take three to five months. One month? You're dreaming."
