No one anticipated that this virus outbreak would be so brutal, almost setting human civilization back by decades.

Kelly comforted everyone softly and then eagerly asked, "Is 'Electric Flight' still operational? How are the suppliers?"

Manager Qiu quickly nodded and said, "We are barely maintaining operations, although there are no new orders. But, the company's finances are still somewhat sufficient.

We lost quite a few core employees, but if we are willing to spend money, we can still recruit manpower again. The domestic economy needs to restart, and many people need to survive and work."

"As for the suppliers... they are certainly heavily impacted by the virus and need thorough investigation. But domestically, everyone recognizes the importance of the economy. As long as there are investments, recovery should be possible."

Upon hearing this, the heavy stone in Kelly's heart finally settled.

She initially thought the domestic situation would be as bad as North America, so she specifically brought gold as a contingency.

Knowing now that the social system is still functioning, it is indeed a blessing amidst disaster.

Before the virus outbreak, the US stock market crashed, and a lot of speculative money had nowhere to go. Companies with good operating conditions, like 'Electric Flight', had the opportunity to obtain significant US Dollar debt financing.

'Electric Flight', as a technology rising star at the time, completed two large-scale funding rounds in one go, each exceeding tens of billions of dollars.

Zhou Qingfeng used these funds for aggressive procurement and transferred a significant portion to the domestic accounts of 'Electric Flight'.

Due to domestic financial regulation, this huge amount of US Dollars was converted into RMB.

Now, the once invaluable US Dollar has almost become worthless, while RMB has become increasingly strong due to domestic economic stability.

This precious fund is still here!

"First, distribute a condolence payment to the families of all employees who have unfortunately passed away, then issue a sympathy payment to all current employees."

With sufficient funds on hand, Kelly's back straightened a bit.

She spent a year in unease in a North American refuge, once believing she would spend the rest of her life under the shadow of the apocalypse, her spirit near despair.

But now it seems that amidst crisis, there is often opportunity.

There are few large enterprises globally still operating normally, isn't this giving 'Holy Light' a once-in-a-lifetime development opportunity?

"Manager Qiu, immediately contact all suppliers. If they can be acquired, do it decisively; if they can't, inject capital, and make sure they resume operations quickly.

We not only need to restore our original operations but also seize the chance to expand our scope." Kelly's eyes gleamed with sharpness.

"What is the situation with domestic ocean shipping? Is it completely paralyzed?" she asked immediately after.

"The petrochemical industry hasn't recovered? Is crude oil supply interrupted?"

"Are the battery and chip production lines all stopped? Now there is only a small inventory?"

On her way from the airport to the headquarters of 'Electric Flight', Kelly fired off one question after another.

Meanwhile, news of her return on behalf of 'Holy Light' to Dongda spread incredibly fast. She was still in the car when she received several important calls.

First was a warm welcome from the government departments for Kelly's return and a promise to fully assist in restarting 'Electric Flight'.

Next were several large suppliers who were almost moved to tears, cheering the return of this key customer, heralding a new vitality in the supply chain.

Major domestic media also instantly reported the news of Holy Light's Vice President Kelly arriving in Shanghai.

This news acted like a strong signal of recovery, indicating that the long-dormant industry and economy are about to start again and regain vitality.

Xiao Jinlang, who returned together, seemed rather silent because he carried a special mission to inquire whether the domestic side would allow 'Holy Light' to venture into the military industry.
