Chapter 149 Generation 2

On the way back to the company, Lu Jiaqi, who was driving, would occasionally turn her head to look at Wei Hongsi, as if trying to see something from his face.

Wei Hongsi had to remind her: "Please concentrate on driving. Statistics show that one-quarter of traffic accidents are related to distracted driving."

Lu Jiaqi said in a serious tone, "I'm looking in the rearview mirror."

Wei Hongsi glanced at her: "I can drive."

Lu Jiaqi smiled slightly and finally asked, "How did you and Shen Qing become acquainted?"

Wei Hongsi said, "President Ji made the connection, and I helped her with a small favor."

Lu Jiaqi hurriedly asked, "What did you do to help her? You didn't give her feedback on her new song, did you?"

"You guessed right."

"Don't you dislike music?"

"It's not that I don't like it, it's just that I don't usually listen to music. I helped her with waveform and spectrum analysis for a newly composed song."

Wei Hongsi knew that Lu Jiaqi's gossipy nature wouldn't be satisfied without a reasonable explanation, so he also took the opportunity to preemptively address his own concerns.

"Oh." Lu Jiaqi nodded, showing an expression of understanding.

Wei Hongsi laughed and said, "President Lu, you're acting very unprofessionally. I seriously doubt your team can handle this task."

"Everyone has curiosity," Lu Jiaqi argued. "Besides, how have I affected my work? I'm just curious about you, not Shen Qing."

Wei Hongsi thought to himself, "You can't be curious about me? Do you want to pry into the secrets of the task force?"

As Wei Hongsi approached the company, his phone received a call from an unknown number. When he answered, the caller asked, "Hongsi, are you busy right now?"

He recognized Dai Songquan's voice and replied, "Mr. Dai, I'm on my way back to the company, I'll be there in about ten minutes."

Dai Songquan said, "If you don't have anything else important to do, come to my office as soon as you get back."

"Okay." Wei Hongsi hung up the phone, and looking at his phone, he suddenly remembered something.

So far, his meetings with General Manager Dai have all taken place in crowded work settings, and they haven't had any direct communication or reporting needs, so he doesn't know the other's phone number. General Manager Dai, however, could easily obtain his number.

However, that wasn't what he was thinking about.

As someone who is tone-deaf, regardless of the cause, it is actually quite normal to be able to accurately distinguish the voices of other people, even if the voices have been altered over the phone.

The brain recognizes melodies and human voices using two completely independent neural systems. The former is mainly located in the anterior part of the bilateral superior temporal gyrus, especially the right side; the latter is mainly located in the posterior part of the bilateral superior temporal gyrus, as well as the right superior temporal sulcus and temporal lobe cortex.

This reminded him of a problem that had been previously overlooked.

The "death command" preset in Peng Jun and Li Yunxiang's minds is likely to be either a melody or a human voice; there should be a significant difference between the two.

How did Meng Haolin, a non-member of the Light Guide Society, discover and utilize this mechanism? It's likely that he's hiding some very important things from the police.

Lu Jiaqi glanced over and saw Wei Hongsi staring blankly into space, so she asked, "Whose call was that?"

Wei Hongsi replied absentmindedly, "President Dai."

Actually, Lu Jiaqi had just overheard Wei Hongsi's address to the person who called her, and she asked this question simply to confirm it.

The company has more than one boss with the surname Dai, but no one else is called "General Manager Dai." The director of Department Ten also has the surname Dai, and although he is over forty, everyone just calls him "Young General Manager Dai."

She sped up slightly and drove into the company's underground parking lot within ten minutes.

The three entered the elevator. Li Xuan pressed the button for the 8th floor, then stopped her finger on the button for the 28th floor and looked back at Wei Hongsi. Seeing him nod, she pressed the button.

Wei Hongsi entered the president's office and saw President Dai sitting behind his desk, with another person sitting opposite him.

Wei Hongsi stepped forward and said, "President Dai."

"Have a seat," Dai Songquan said, raising his hand to gesture for someone to sit down.

Wei Hongsi sat down and looked at the person next to him. He saw that the person was a young man in his mid-twenties with a chestnut-shaped haircut. He was fair-skinned and looked quite refined.

Dai Songquan introduced him, saying, "His name is Xia Shiyu, and he is President Xia's son."

Wei Hongsi greeted him, saying, "Hello."

Xia Shiyu responded with a smile: "Hello."

Dai Songquan said, "Shi Yu just graduated from university this year. He was originally going to pursue a master's degree, but he couldn't take the interview because of Mr. Xia's health. He plans to work at the company first, so we'll arrange for him to work with you. Please mentor him."

Wei Hongsi nodded and said, "Okay."

Dai Songquan then said to Xia Shiyu, "You can talk to Hongsi directly about anything you have to say."

Xia Shiyu nodded in agreement: "Okay."

Dai Songquan smiled and said, "You young people should interact more."

The two responded and, seeing that Dai Songquan had no further arrangements, they took their leave together.

Dai Songquan watched them leave, leaned back in his chair, and sighed softly.

In early April this year, Xia Yuansheng's health deteriorated, especially his mental state, which became increasingly confused, to the point where he was almost unable to take care of himself, and the condition was getting worse.

Xia Shiyu stayed at home because she was worried about her father's condition and did not participate in the postgraduate entrance examination interview.

In June, Tai Liqun, in order to promote the listing of Zhiwei, visited Xia Yuansheng several times and found that Xia Yuansheng had lost his ability to act independently.

So Tai Liqun changed his target to Xia Yuansheng's wife, said a lot of bad things about Dai Songquan, and encouraged her to become Xia Yuansheng's guardian.

Xia Shiyu then said to Dai Songquan that his mother was getting old, and that he, as her son, should take on this responsibility.

Tai Liqun saw that Xia Shiyu was a young man who had not yet graduated from university, and felt that he would be easier to handle.

So he helped Xia Shiyu complete the legal process, applied to the court to declare Xia Yuansheng incapable of civil conduct, and ruled that Xia Shiyu was Xia Yuansheng's legal guardian.

At this point, Xia Shiyu can exercise the shareholder rights of Zhiwei on behalf of Xia Yuansheng.

Tai Liqun had planned it very well, intending to bring Xia Shiyu to the shareholders' meeting. However, Xia Shiyu unexpectedly disappeared, and Tai Liqun couldn't find her anywhere on the day of the meeting, which infuriated him.

That day, he was provoked by Wei Hongsi and broke down, which was largely related to this incident.

This morning, Xia Shiyu visited Dai Songquan at the company. Dai Songquan had been finalizing the joint research and development project with the police with Zhou Qihong and didn't return until almost noon. Upon seeing Xia Shiyu, he learned of the twists and turns involved.

After Xia Yuansheng took sick leave, Dai Songquan visited him twice. Each time, Xia Yuansheng was lying in bed in a deep sleep. Dai Songquan thought that Xia Yuansheng had a big problem with him and was deliberately putting on this act to avoid seeing him, so he never went again.

So after hearing Xia Shiyu explain the whole story, Dai Songquan felt a mix of emotions.
