191: Starting a New Career Ahead of Time
"You fired us as well?"
Liu Shuang had the urge to curse. If you were about to quit, what's the point of screwing with us?!
At He Yuanyuan's level, the HR department didn't have the authority to approve the resignation and needed the signature of the president of the group.
...
He Yuanyuan had already completed all of her tasks.
She only came to the HR Department as a formality.
After completing the resignation procedures, He Yuanyuan ignored Liu Shuang and Duan Ping and left with Lin Yi.
"Brother Liu, they played us both!"Duan Ping said.
"That Lin Yi has a very good relationship with He Yuanyuan. He's too much!"
"I know that!" Liu Shuang said indignantly. "Damn it, I won't let him go!"
"You're not going to take revenge on He Yuanyuan, are you?" Duan Ping asked.
"Although she left her job, her social connections are still there. The two of us can't beat her."
"I can't afford to mess with someone like He Yuanyuan, but I have to talk to that Lin Yi," Liu Shuang said.
"Let's go down quickly and follow him quietly. When he's alone, I'll teach him a lesson!"
…
After exiting the personnel department, the two of them took the elevator downstairs.
"Director Lin, in order to protect you from getting hurt, I even fired two people before I resigned. Don't you want to show your gratitude to an employee like me, who is brave and generous in protecting you?"
"With a handsome boss like me, you can save a few pounds of cucumbers and eggplants for sleepless nights. Did I charge you for this?"
"No wonder you became the boss while I'm just a part-time worker," He Yuanyuan said. "I'm too thin-skinned."
"You finally understand the true meaning of business," Lin Yi said seriously.
"An impotent man once said, 'Can you still do business if you have a sense of shame?'"
He Yuanyuan gave a thumbs-up in admiration.
"Boss is so cool!"
Ring, Ring, Ring…
At that moment, He Yuanyuan's phone rang. Lin Yi glanced at it and saw that it seemed to be her former CEO.
"Okay, I got it.
"Thank you, President Zhao. We'll keep in touch."
"Did your boss ask you to stay?" Lin Yi asked after He Yuanyuan hung up the phone.
"No, it's all because of what you did just now."
"What's wrong?"
"The recording has reached President Zhao's ears. He called me, hoping that I could talk to him and ask you to delete the recording. He promised that he would correct the unreasonable system."
"Okay, I got it."
"What do you mean you got it? Let's delete the recording."
"Delete what?" Lin Yi said. "I didn't record anything at all. I was just fooling those two idiots."
He Yuanyuan, "…"
You two idiots, why did you make things difficult for director Lin? Sigh…
"By the way, how far have you progressed with Cisco?" Lin Yi asked.
"We've already made an appointment. We'll talk at their company tomorrow at 9:00."
"Where's Old Qi? What's he doing?" Lin Yi asked.
"He's practicing the posturing routines you gave him at the company."
"What's a posturing routine?"Lin Yi said. "It's the self-cultivation of an actor."
"Fine, you're the boss. Whatever you say, as long as you don't deduct my pay."
At that moment, the elevator door opened and a sharp voice sounded.
"It's you!"
Lin Yi looked up and realized that the person who spoke was the female receptionist who had treated him as a big shot.
"What did I do?"
"You have the nerve to say that!" The female receptionist was furious. "You're just an errand boy, yet you were pretending to be rich in front of me. What are your intentions? Do you think I'm easy to fool?!"
He Yuanyuan, "???"
The boss and the receptionist knew each other?
It was just a visit to the company. How much trouble did you get into?!
"Cough cough cough…"
Lin Yi coughed twice and looked at He Yuanyuan. "She was rude to me just now. What do you think we should do?"
Huh???
"What do you think we should do? I already quit my job," He Yuanyuan said softly.
"Figure it out, or do you want me to fire you?"
He Yuanyuan, "…"
Where's my knife!
"Cough cough cough…"
He Yuanyuan pretended to be calm as she looked at the female receptionist. "Your name is Wu Ting, right?"
"He… President He, do you two know each other?"
Even though He Yuanyuan had resigned, only a few people knew about it. The others in the company did not know that she had resigned.
"Whether we know each other or not has nothing to do with you," He Yuanyuan said,
"I don't think you're qualified to be the receptionist anymore. Pack your things and leave."
"I… I'm being fired?"
"That's right. Let's go to the personnel department now."
After saying that, He Yuanyuan left first. She was afraid that she would be exposed, and she was cussing in her heart.
When she had time, she had to repent to Buddha. She had to eat vegetarian and pray to Buddha every day. Otherwise, hanging out with such a boss would definitely shorten her lifespan.
He Yuanyuan looked at Lin Yi as they walked out of the building.
"Boss, I haven't finished the task you gave me yet, so I'll be leaving first." He Yuanyuan said.
"Don't come looking for me if you need to do such wicked things in the future. I'm too unlucky to be a bad person."
He Yuanyuan didn't give Lin Yi a chance to speak as she hurriedly left in her high heels, afraid that her life would be shortened.
Lin Yi stretched his back. Now that his account had been unlocked, he had to continue taking orders.
He had to see what the next mission was.
"Stop right there!"
Just as he pressed the car key, he heard someone calling him from behind. It was Liu Shuang and Duan Ping from before.
"You two are looking for me?"
Liu Shuang's heart skipped a beat when she saw Koenigsegg's scissor door open.
"This, this car is yours?"
"What's wrong? Can't it be?"
"Sure, but how can you use a sports car to run errands? It's such a waste."
"I have nowhere else to spend my money."
Liu Shuang, "…"
Duan Ping, "…"
Lin Yi looked at the two of them. "Did you come all the way here to look for me?"
"No, nothing…"
Liu Shuang replied with trepidation. Lin Yi was driving a sports car, so he couldn't afford to offend him!
"I… I just wanted to give you a ride."
"Thank you for your kindness." Lin Yi sighed. "I wouldn't have let He Yuanyuan fire you if I knew this was going to happen."
As he spoke, Lin Yi stepped on the accelerator and drove away.
The two of them were left in a mess from the wind.
…
As he drove away, just as Lin Yi was waiting for the order, the sound of a system notification rang in his mind.
[ Change the rules of the industry, increased the living conditions of the employees at the bottom. Reward 300,000 experience points! ]
[ Experience points:90%, reward 2 billion USD! ]
2
Lin Yi stepped on the brake and reacted after a few seconds. Did he complete the mission just like that?
The system said that he had changed the rules of the industry and increased the living conditions of the employees at the bottom. It was probably because of the recording.
He Yuanyuan had just told him that their boss had agreed to change the unreasonable rules to give the riders at the bottom better working conditions.
That was what the system was referring to.
After understanding the sequence of events, Lin Yi's eyes fell on the reward.
300,000 experience points!
This was the first time in history!
It seemed that his unintentional actions had had a big impact on the entire industry.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been awarded so many points.
However, most importantly, his job completion rate had reached 90%!
In other words, he could unlock a new job ahead of time!
At the same time, the system notification sounded.
[ Job completion rate: 90%, you can unlock a new job ahead of time. ]
[ New job unlock (Yes/No)]
[ Experience job: Clinician. ]
[ Job completion: 0%. ]
[ New job gift pack, 10 million USD. One set of alloy scalpels. ]
192: Even If It's Fate, It's Still Bad Fate
"What the f*ck! It wants to become a doctor?"
This profession was pretty awesome!
Even though he was excited, Lin Yi suppressed his excitement.
...
He had already experienced three professions, and he hadn't received the final mission yet, so he couldn't unlock the new profession yet.
He had to clear all the final missions before he could start the new profession properly.
Otherwise, the backlog of missions would be too much, and it would be a burden for him.
However, Lin Yi was still looking forward to the profession of doctor.
He just didn't know which hospital he would be arranged to go to this time.
[ System mission: received 20 5-star reviews. Reward 100,000 experience points. Current mission progress (11/20)]
"The ultimate mission is here?"
The job completion rate had reached 90%.
Another 100,000 experience points would mean that it would reach 100%!
Lin Yi calculated in his heart. The teacher job was still on cooldown, so it was impossible to restart it now.
He could only choose to use Didi and run errands.
In the end, Lin Yi decided to finish running errands completely.
He just needed nine more five-star reviews, and the mission would be complete. This was simple.
However, as the old saying went, 'you can't trap a wolf without a child, and you can't trap a gangster without a wife.'.
The ultimate mission wasn't that difficult, and the rewards might not be too good.
Still, it was the ultimate mission, after all. Therefore, he would finish it first.
Lin Yi let out a sigh of relief at the thought of this. He could slow down and do his own thing.
He looked at the time and found that it was already noon.
He looked around and found that he wasn't far from Chaoyang Group. He hadn't eaten Uncle Kong's egg fried rice for a long time, so he went over to taste it.
With the help of the Sage's wisdom, he was able to cook a delicious meal, but the food he made was still a little lacking compared to Uncle Kong's.
The taste might not be bad, but it felt too different.
After making up his mind, Lin Yi drove to the alley near Chaoyang Group.
Ring, Ring, Ring…
On the way, Lin Yi's phone rang. It was Zhou Haitao, from the racetrack.
"Boss Lin, the T12 has been repaired. Should we leave it here or send it to you?"
"It's been repaired so quickly?"
"Yes, the manufacturers had spare parts, so it didn't take long."
"I'm in the alley beside No. 190 Xuanqing Road. Send it to me."
The system awarded T12 motorcycle had just been driven once, but it was ruined by that retard named Chang Dejun. Now that it had been repaired, he could finally experience it again.
"Alley?" Zhou Haitao said with a dilemma.
"Lin, the alley is too small for a car to get in."
"You're such a stubborn person. Why are you driving a car? Just get someone to ride it over. What's the point of all this? There's no diamonds on it."
"Yes, yes, yes. I got it. I'll arrange for someone to send it over now."
Lin Yi hung up the phone and didn't go to Xuanqing Road.
Instead, he drove the car to the parking lot of Chaoyang Group.
The T12 would be here soon. He couldn't drive it anymore, so he would just leave it there to collect dust.
After parking the car, Lin Yi slowly walked towards the alley on Xuanqing Road.
"Yi Bro!"
The little girl, Kong Jing, ran over excitedly when she saw Lin Yi. She was extremely happy.
"The college entrance exam is coming up soon. Why are you still spending time here?"
"I've been too tired from studying recently. The school gave us a day off to relax."
"You're right. Sharpening a knife doesn't hurt as much as chopping wood. Take a break and relax your mind. Perhaps the learning effect will be better."
"That's right," Kong Jing said with a smile.
"Brother Lin really knows me. My dad only knows how to make me study every day."
"They're doing this for your own good."
"I know that." Kong Jing chuckled. "Brother Lin, what do you want to eat? Let my dad cook it for you."
"Same old order. Egg fried rice. This time, add two golden gongs and ham sausages, two eggs, and a packet of spicy sticks."
"Come, come, come, Little Yi. Take a seat," Aunt Liu said with a smile.
"The business seems to be pretty good today. There's no need to rush to do my order. I'll just wait for Uncle Kong to finish his work first."
"It's fine. With your Uncle Kong's skills, he can get everything done. I'll do it for you now."
"Then I won't stand on ceremony." Lin Yi said.
"We've known each other for so long. If you stand on ceremony with me, then something's not right."
One of them cooked the egg fried rice while the other greeted the guests. Kong Jing sat beside Lin Yi, accompanying him.
"The college entrance exam is coming up soon. Do you have any target universities?" Lin Yi asked.
"I want to go to Fudan," Kong Jing said.
"Fudan?"
Lin Yi thought for a moment. "Your grades should be pretty high. You should be able to go to Tsinghua University and Yan University."
"It shouldn't be a problem if I perform well,
"But even if I can get in, I'll probably be at the bottom. If I go to Fudan, I can choose any major I want. Besides, Zhonghai is close to home. I don't want to go too far."
"That makes sense." Lin Yi patted Kong Jing's head and smiled. "Do you have any majors you'd like?"
"I want to study medicine." Kong Jing said with a smile.
"I think those doctors and nurses in white coats look really good."
"There's no problem with studying medicine, but you have to consider one thing." Lin Yi said.
"Studying medicine usually takes five years, and it's a very tiring field. It'll be like senior year at the end of every year. You have to be mentally prepared."
"It's not that bad." Kong Jing said with her head held high. "I don't think senior year is that tiring."
Lin Yi, "…"
Was this the difference between a straight-a student and a slacker?
"Little girl, you're so pretty. Why Don't you go to an art school and become a star in the future?" A customer beside her said.
"Lin Bro said that the entertainment industry is too chaotic, so I'm not going," Kong Jing said.
"Wow, you're pretty obedient. Not bad, not bad."
At that moment, Lin Yi's egg fried rice was served, along with a bottle of soda.
"Aren't you going to apply soon? If there's anything you don't understand, just ask your Brother Yi."
Auntie Liu looked at Lin Yi with a smile. "Your Uncle Kong and I didn't go to school, so we don't know much about this kind of thing. We'll have to trouble you about it."
"Of course. Don't you have my number? If there's anything you need, just give me a call."
"Thank you then."
"You're welcome." Lin Yi looked at Kong Jing.
"After you pass the exam, I'll give you a phone and a computer as a reward."
"How can I accept that? My mom said that I can't just take things from others."Kong Jing refused.
"Plus, computers and phones aren't cheap, so I can't take them."
"Your Brother Lin's money is too much for me to finish. Just take it."
Before Kong Jing could speak, someone called Lin Yi's name.
"Lin Yi, why are you here?"
Lin Yi looked up and was surprised to find that the person he was talking to was Liu Sisi!
Liu Sisi's appearance surprised Lin Yi.
Zhong Hai was so big, so he thought that he would never see her again.
He didn't expect to meet her in such a place.
"Sisi, you know this handsome guy?"
The person who spoke was Liu Sisi's new best friend. The two of them were arm in arm, wearing miniskirts and black silk. They looked sexy and bold.
"He's my ex-boyfriend. We had a fight a while ago, so we separated for a while."
Liu Sisi was both surprised and happy to see Lin Yi again.
Could it be that God was looking out for her and giving her another chance to meet him?
"No way. You were willing to fight with such a handsome boyfriend?"
The reason why Liu Sisi and Lin Yi were initially together was because of his good looks.
However, as time went on, Lin Yi's poverty became unacceptable to Liu Sisi.
Many of her best friends drove luxury cars with diamond rings worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, but when she wanted the latest iphone, he couldn't afford it. This was the final reason why they broke up.
"We broke up because of a misunderstanding. It's not what you think."
Liu Sisi sat beside Lin Yi and grabbed his arm, as if she was holding onto the god of wealth.
If Lin Yi would get back together with her, not only would he be able to sit a Pagani in the future, she could even stay at the Peninsula Hotel!
In her circle, who would be able to compare to her then?
"Wait, I remember now." Liu Sisi's best friend said.
"I think you mentioned to me before that your ex-boyfriend was very rich. He owns a hotel and drives a supercar. This can't be him, right?"
"That's right, it's him!" Liu Sisi held her head high with a smug look on her face. "Isn't he outstanding?"
"Are you out of your mind? You actually broke up with such a handsome and rich boyfriend?"
"Who said we broke up? We're just temporarily apart. It's not what you think."
Liu Sisi looked at Lin Yi with a fiery gaze.
"Lin Yi, we've been apart for so long. Don't you think it's fate that we met here today?"
"Even if it's fate, it's still a bad fate."

193: Ah, I Made a Mistake After All
"That's still fate." Liu Sisi said,
"You know, I've been thinking about you the whole time we were apart."
"I don't know."
...
Ugh…
"Are you still mad at me? I've already admitted my mistake, so please forgive me this once." Liu Sisi pulled Lin Yi's arm and said in a coquettish voice.
"We've been together for so long, and we had such a long-lasting relationship. Do you have the heart to give up on me?"
"I do."
"Lin Yi, I know you're still mad at me, but I really know my mistake. I shouldn't have treated you like that in the past. Who can guarantee that they can live a mistake-free life? I just needed to realize my mistake."
"Don't have such thoughts in front of me. We've already broken up, so let's act decent."
"You're mistaken. I want to get back together with you, not because of your money, but because I realized that I really like you after we split up," Liu Sisi said tearfully.
"I've been crying these past few days. I can't eat or sleep well, and the doctor said that I'm depressed."
"Alright, stop pretending." Lin Yi pushed Liu Sisi away,
"You think I don't know what kind of person you are? If I didn't have money, would you shamelessly stick to me? Can you let me finish my food in peace?"
"Lin Yi, I swear to God, if I like you because of your money, I'll be struck by lightning!"
Lin Yi, "…"
You're really playing so hard?
"Alright then, since you've said so, I'll give you a chance."Lin Yi pointed at the other tables in the stall. "Go and take away the leftovers on the table."
"Ah? Clean up the leftovers?"
Liu Sisi was ecstatic that Lin Yi had agreed to get back together, but she couldn't understand why he was doing it.
"Yeah, this stall belongs to me."
Lin Yi pointed at Kong Jing's father. "That's the chef I hired. You can just call him Uncle Kong. Auntie Liu is next to him. Now that you're here, there'll be more people helping out, so I can expand the shop."
Kong Jing's parents were stunned. They didn't know what was going on.
On the other hand, the little girl, Kong Jing, was quick-witted. She understood what Lin Yi meant and said,
"Mom, since this sister is here. You'll be more relaxed in the future."
"Oh, that's great." Auntie Liu said, but she was still confused.
Liu Sisi was confused. The reality in front of her was different from what she imagined.
Lin Yi was supposed to pick her up in a sports car and travel around the world. Why was she still working here?
"Lin… Lin Yi, what's going on? Isn't the Peninsula Hotel yours? Why did you open a restaurant here?"
"The environment wasn't good. I lost money. I opened a restaurant here to make a living." Lin Yi mumbled as he ate his fried rice.
"Hurry up and get to work. The city management employees will be here soon."
Liu Sisi was dumbfounded. Were the gods playing with her?
Why did she always meet him when he was down and out?
What was the point of getting back together with him under such conditions?
"Sisi, what's going on? Didn't your ex-boyfriend drive a sports car and own a hotel?" Liu Sisi's best friend said with disdain.
"Is that crappy minivan your so-called supercar? Is this junkyard a five-star restaurant?"
Liu Sisi looked embarrassed and wanted to find a hole to hide in.
She had embarrassed herself in front of her friends in the past, and now it had happened again.
Damn it!
"Don't just stand there," Lin Yi said,
"Didn't you want to get back together with me? You have a part in this business too. Oh, and your friend, ask her to help too. There are so many customers today, and we can't handle all of them."
"Sisi, what's wrong with your ex-boyfriend? Is he out of his mind? You want me to work for him? Is he worthy?" Liu Sisi's best friend said.
"Don't be so mean," Lin Yi said with a smile.
"If you don't want to help, sit down and eat something. It's just a show of support. It's not too much, right?"
"Ptui!" Liu Sisi's best friend crossed her arms in front of her chest. "What kind of place is this? You really have the nerve to ask me to sit down and eat?"
"What's wrong with this place?" Lin Yi said. "Our egg fried rice is very famous."
"Even if it's famous, isn't it still egg fried rice? It's for the poor," Liu Sisi's best friend said.
"The restaurants I go to are all high-end restaurants that cost more than 300 dollars per person. My stomach can't digest such things."
"This is high-quality rice and eggs from the countryside. Most people want to eat it…"
"Pa!"
Liu Sisi slammed the table, and a layer of foundation fell off her face.
"Lin Yi, that's enough!"
"Huh? What's wrong?" Lin Yi asked.
"Aren't you ashamed enough? I really misjudged you!"
"Huh? Misjudged me for what?"
"You still have the nerve to ask me?" Liu Sisi said.
"I didn't think that after being apart for so long, you'd still be a piece of trash.Despite having such a large amount of assets in your hands, you've already squandered them all. Even a pig would be stronger than you!"
"Didn't I just say it? It's the environment that was bad. You can't blame me for that."
"Ptui! You're always saying that the environment's bad. You're the one that destroys the environment." Liu Sisi said angrily.
"I was really blind to look for you to get back together!"
Lin Yi tried hard to hold back his laughter.
"Didn't you just say that you and I are true love? How long has it been since then? How did you change your attitude so fast?"
"Bullsh*t! Don't flatter yourself!"
Liu Sisi scolded, "Look at you now! Do you think you're worthy of me?"
"What's there to be unworthy of? Were you lying?" Lin Yi said, "Are you really just interested in my money?"
"Yes!"
Liu Sisi said, "I'm telling you openly that I'm only interested in your money. Otherwise, why would a poor guy like you make me shamelessly commit to you?"
"Ah, I guess I ended up making a mistake." Lin Yi sighed.
"Haha, What's the point of saying all this when you can't do anything? It's only been a short while, and you've already squandered such a big business. Why didn't you let me manage it?"
Boom! Boom! Boom
Before Lin Yi could say anything, he heard the sound of a motorcycle coming from not too far away.
Lin Yi looked up and saw that his T12 had arrived.
"This car sounds so noisy," Kong Jing said as she covered her ears.
"Is it noisy? What a nice sound." Lin Yi said as he touched Kong Jing. "Yi Bro will take you for a ride later."
"Huh? Yi Bro, is that your motorcycle?"
"Of course."
Liu Sisi frowned when she saw the motorcycle coming from afar.
He was driving a Pagani before, but now it was a motorcycle. He was really down and out.
"Lin Yi, do you have any morals? You want to fool a little girl with a broken motorcycle?"
"I don't like what you're saying. My motorcycle is worth a lot of money."
"What money? It's so noisy, and you're saying that your motorcycle is worth money? Can you stop pretending now?"
Lin Yi shrugged. "Whatever you say."
At the same time, Lin Yi's T12 arrived in front of him. Lin Yi had some impression of the driver. His name was Gao Fei, the director of the racetrack's maintenance department.
"Boss Lin, the car has been repaired. We've also modified some of the parts to make it faster and safer."
194: One Look and You Can Birth a Son
"Not bad, the craftsmanship isn't bad. It's exactly the same as before," Lin Yi said with satisfaction.
"The main thing is that the original parts and paint were really good. The only drawback is that it's too expensive. It cost a million to repair, which is enough to buy a car."
Liu Sisi and her best friend were dumbfounded.
...
A million dollars to fix a motorcycle?!
How much would the original price be?
"It's a little expensive, but riding a motorcycle is a form of enjoyment." Lin Yi smiled. "Alright, the bike has been delivered, so you can grab a taxi and head back. Go back and ask Zhou Haitao for reimbursement."
"Thank you, Mr. Lin."
"Wait!"
Gao Fei turned around to leave, but Liu Sisi stopped him from behind.
"Oh? What's the matter?"
"What, what did you call him just now?" Liu Sisi said in disbelief.
"Boss Lin, what's wrong?"
"He, he's just a stall owner. Why do you call him Boss Lin? His restaurant has gone bankrupt."
Gao Fei frowned and looked at Liu Sisi as if he was looking at a retard.
This woman's mental state seemed to be a little abnormal.
"I don't know what's going on with the restaurant you mentioned, but the Zhonghai International Racetrack is Mr. Lin's property. It's only natural for me to call him Boss Lin."
"What did you say?!"
"The Zhonghai International Racetrack is his?!"
Liu Sisi and her best friend raised their voices as if they had stepped on a dog's tail.
"That's right. If you don't believe me, you can go and see for yourself."
Gao Fei turned around and left after saying that.
Take care of your life life and stay away from retards.
Liu Sisi and her best friend's expressions were stiff.
"Lin… Lin Yi… you… you bought the Zhonghai International Racetrack?"
"Yeah, I spent a few billion. I can't remember the exact amount."
"A few… a few billion…"
Liu Sisi shivered and her hair stood on end when she heard that number.
She'd never seen so much money in her dreams.
"Didn't you say you were broke?"
"I was just testing you." Lin Yi sighed as he spoke slowly,
1
"I didn't expect you to be the same as before. You made a mistake, you really made a mistake. How was I supposed to spend so much money?"
"Lin Yi, listen to me. It's not what you think." Liu Sisi held Lin Yi's hand,
"I said those things to motivate you. I'm happy to see you become more and more successful."
"Then you can continue to be happy. I won't stop you."
"That's why you have to experience my hard work." Liu Sisi said excitedly.
"You just said that this stall is yours, right? Did you invest because you think it has potential? It's your own business, so don't hire waiters in the future. I'll do it."
Liu Sisi grabbed the rag from Aunt Liu's hand. "Don't bother with this, I'll do it."
"Me too, me too, I'll help too."
Aunt Liu was stunned when she saw Liu Sisi and her best friend fighting over the work.
What the hell was this?
"That's not very good," Lin Yi said. "Isn't working here degrading to someone of your status?"
"What are you talking about? I'm just an ordinary person. I don't have any status, as long as you're happy," Liu Sisi said.
"Then stay here and work. I'm leaving first."
"Leave? I'll go with you. I've never been on such a good motorcycle before."
"Didn't you want to stay here and work? Why are you going with me?"
Lin Yi then got on the motorcycle and left.
Only Liu Sisi and her best friend were left in the wind.
Ring, Ring, Ring…
Just as he rode his motorcycle out, his phone rang. It was from Ji Qingyan.
"You came to the company?"
"Huh? No, I was coming to take an order," Lin Yi said.
"Then why is your car in the parking lot of the company?"
Lin Yi understood what was going on. Ji Qingyan probably called him because she had seen his car.
"I bought a new motorcycle recently. I just got it and so I parked my car at the company."
"I see. I thought you were at the company."Ji Qingyan said.
"By the way, why did you buy a motorcycle? It's dangerous to ride that."
"I just ride it occasionally. There's no need to be so strict. It's not as serious as you think." Lin Yi said.
"President Ji, do you have time for me to take you for a ride?" Lin Yi asked,
"President Ji has business to attend to. I don't have time," Ji Qingyan said. "But I can give you a chance to send me there."
"What's in it for me? I'm a person who can't get up early without benefits."
"I'll place an order later and give you a five-star review."
"Deal! I'm at Xuanqing Road. I'll be at the entrance of the company in five minutes."
Five-star reviews were too important to Lin Yi at this stage.
With Ji Qingyan's review, he only needed eight more reviews to get the ultimate reward for running errands.
"Yeah, wait for me at the company entrance. I'm wearing a skirt, so I need to change into pants."
"The skirt is pretty good, why are you changing out of it? What a waste."
"You're the one wasting time." Ji Qingyan said. "How am I supposed to ride your motorcycle in a skirt?"
"Uhm… I think that's what I wanted to happen." Lin Yi said.
"You're so stupid. Is your brain filled with mush? Hehehe…"
Qingyan hung up the phone without giving Lin Yi a chance to reply.
Lin Yi couldn't help but laugh as he rode his motorcycle to Chaoyang Group.
"Look at that black motorcycle. It's so damn handsome!"
A slightly chubby security guard at the entrance of Chaoyang group said.
"It's more than handsome. It's simply too handsome. According to my estimation, it's impossible to buy it without tens of thousands of dollars," said the slightly thin security guard.
"I also think it's worth this amount."
"People who can ride this kind of motorcycle are probably rich people, and they even parked their bikes here in public. Do you think they're here to pick up the CEO?"
"How is that possible? Do you think CEO Ji is one of those easy women?" The slightly plump security guard said.
"President Ji's suitors all drive Lamborghinis at the very least. No matter how expensive his motorcycle is, it's still a little boring in comparison."
"That's not necessarily true. Maybe President Ji likes this kind of cool style."
"Are you kidding me? You newcomers really don't know what's going on," the slightly plump security guard said.
"President Ji is the goddess in the hearts of all the male employees. Do you know what a goddess means? She's like a fairy who wears a skirt and has a fairy-like aura. How can she like such wild things?"
"That's not necessarily true. People have two sides," the skinny security guard said with a different opinion.
"Alright, if you don't agree, let's make a bet and see if this person is here to pick up Boss Ji."
"No problem. Let's bet with the 298-dollar package at the backstreet bathing center."
"Sure."
Ten minutes later, Ji Qingyan walked out of the door with her high heels and handbag.
Lin Yi glanced at her and was amazed.
She was wearing blue jeans, black boots, a white half-sleeved jacket, and a pair of black sunglasses on her straight nose.
It was a very cool outfit.
"Does this look good? Does it match your motorcycle?" Ji Qingyan asked with a smile.
"Yes! It's bloody cool!"
"Hehe, that's what I like to hear." Qingyan said as she held her file folder. "Move forward, I want to get on."
"I've already given you space. If I go any further forward, I'll have to sit on the gas tank."
"That's not enough space for me to sit. Go a little further forward," Qingyan said softly.
Lin Yi looked back and understood. He took the initiative to move forward.
"One look and you can birth a son."
195: Can Your Range Rover Compete
"What are you talking about?"
Ji Qingyan rolled her eyes at Lin Yi and got on the motorcycle.
"Wait a minute, I'll place an order and support you."
...
"I was waiting for you to say that."
Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan were both familiar with placing and snatching orders.
This made Lin Yi feel like he was driving.
"Put your helmet on," Lin Yi said as he took off his helmet.
"I'm not wearing it."
"You don't like the feeling of being restrained?"
"Yeah," Ji Qingyan said, "If I put your helmet on, my hair will become messy."
"But if the wind blows, your hair will become messy as well."
"You just have to ride slowly. I have enough time. I won't be too late if you slow down."
"Alright." Lin Yi started the bike. "Hold on tight."
"Yeah, yeah, hold on tight. Let's go to Yaluo Design," Ji Qingyan said excitedly. It was obviously her first time riding a motorcycle.
"Why are you pulling on a guy's clothes in broad daylight? I'm not that kind of person."
"Didn't you tell me to hold on tight?"
"I told you to hold on to my waist, not my clothes," Lin Yi said. "This is a motorcycle. It won't vibrate."
Ji Qingyan didn't understand Lin Yi's nonsense and said shyly, "I… I'm sorry."
"It's useless to be like that." Lin Yi complained. "You kissed me on the mouth, so what's there to be sorry about?"
"Lin Yi, you're going to die!"
Ji Qingyan pinched Lin Yi. "If you keep talking nonsense, I'll give you a bad review."
"Fine, fine, fine. You're a god. Hurry up and hug me, or it won't be safe."
"Oh, I got it."
Ji Qingyan leaned forward and hugged Lin Yi's waist.
"Hiss…"
Lin Yi shuddered.
"What's wrong? Did I use too much force?"
"No," Lin Yi said.
Huh?
Ji Qingyan was stunned.
"Rascal, stop thinking about dirty things. Hurry up and drive. Just go to Yaluo Design."
"No problem."
In order to ensure that Ji Qingyan's hair would not be messed up, Lin Yi rode very slowly.
He only increased his speed when he was overtaken by two disabled people.
"Lin Yi, there's a red light ahead." Ji Qingyan said, "Stop quickly."
"So what if it's a red light?"Lin Yi said indifferently, "We came out on a motorcycle. If we stop at a red light, it'll be disrespectful to it."
"That's illegal."
"Theoretically speaking, it's definitely illegal to ride a motorcycle through a red light." Lin Yi said seriously,
"But even if we're caught on camera, we don't need to be afraid. They won't be able to find us at all. No fines, no points deducted. What's there to be afraid of?"
"But I still think it's better to stop and wait for a red light."
"Why are you so insistent on stopping at the red light? Is this your first time riding a motorcycle?"
"No, because there's a traffic policeman ahead."
Lin Yi turned his head and saw a traffic policeman smiling at him.
This was the legendary smile of death.
I'm asking if you're afraid!
Lin Yi stopped the car and saluted to apologize.
Seeing that Lin Yi's attitude wasn't bad, the traffic policeman didn't say anything else.
At the same time, he was cursing in his hearts. The pretty girls were all taken by the rich second generation.
Although the BMW was on the right and the Land Rover was on the left, they weren't even worth as much as that motorcycle.
"Hey bro, the girl's not bad."
Just as Lin Yi was waiting for the red light, the BMW owner on the right said.
"What's wrong? Are you jealous?"
"I'm jealous. I drive a 7 series, but I'm still a single dog."
"I can't help it. It's a face-based society."
"F*ck, that's too hurtful," the BMW owner said.
"I'm already being tactful," Lin Yi said. "You won't be able to accept it if I tell you the real reason."
"What's the real reason?"
"I can do it seven times a night. Can you do the same?"
"F*ck, your life is too exciting."
The owner of the BMW felt like he was hit by a billion critical hits, so he chose to shut up.
"You think you're awesome just because you got a pretty girl? You're still just a motorcyclist."
The person who spoke was the owner of the car on Lin Yi's left. He drove a white Range Rover and glanced at Ji Qingyan from time to time, his heart itching.
"What, are you jealous?" Lin Yi said.
"What's there to be jealous about?" The owner of the Range Rover said disdainfully,
"As long as I have money, what kind of girl can't I find? There's a whole bunch of them. You, on the other hand, better be careful. Don't get your girl kidnapped by a rich kid one day."
"What, you look down on my scooter just because you drive a Range Rover?" Lin Yi said with a straight back.
"It may look like a scooter, but it's not any slower than your car."
"Little Bro, are you kidding me? I'm driving a Range Rover worth more than two million dollars. It's no joke when it comes to power."
"If you don't believe me, why don't we have a competition?"
"Let's have a competition then. The loser is sure to be embarassed," the owner of the Range Rover shouted.
"Shall we start now?"
"Sure!"
The owner of the Range Rover didn't hesitate. It was as if he was angry with Lin Yi as he stepped on the accelerator and rushed out.
"Hey, hey, hey, Bro, there's a red light ahead!"
Creak…
The owner of the Range Rover stopped immediately, not because he heard Lin Yi's words.
It was because the traffic police had arrived.
"Sir, Please Show me your driver's license. Six points will be deducted and a fine of 200 dollars will be imposed."
At the same time, the traffic light changed. Lin Yi drove over slowly and said to the owner of the Range Rover,
"Thanks for letting me win."
Ji Qingyan covered her mouth and laughed lightly, her heart aching for the owner of the Range Rover.
If you want to play with Lin Yi, you really won't be a match for him.
"Kid, if you have the guts, Don't leave. Let's continue the competition, whoever loses will lose face!" The owner of the Range Rover cursed and smiled at the traffic police.
"Officer, I really didn't do it on purpose. If it wasn't for this kid's goading, I definitely wouldn't have run the red light. Give me another chance."
"Goading?" The traffic policeman looked at the Range Rover owner speechlessly. "With your IQ, you still want to race with him?"
"He was the one who was unconvinced first. He rides a broken motorcycle, pulled a beautiful woman, and even shouted at me. I just wanted to teach him a lesson!"
This time, the traffic policeman was really speechless. With this IQ, he still wanted to drive around. He was even scarier than a female driver.
"Your car is a high-quality Range Rover. It has a power of 415 kilowatts and a torque of 700 nm. The official 0-60 time is 5.4 seconds. Am I right?"
"Yes, yes." The owner of the Range Rover nodded repeatedly. "As expected of someone who works with cars every day. You know the parameters of my car at a glance. impressive."
"But do you know the data surrounding that motorcycle?"
"How can a lousy motorcycle have any data worth memorizing?" The owner of the Range Rover said disdainfully.
"That motorcycle is called a Tamburini T12. In Chinese, it's called Dark Elf. Its top speed is 340 miles per hour, and it reaches 0-60 in 3.4 seconds. Can your Range Rover compare?"
The owner of the Range Rover's face was livid, and he couldn't even speak clearly.
"This… the performance of this motorcycle is so good?"
"The domestic selling price of the T12 is around 6.5 million dollars. It's enough to buy three range rovers. Do you still want to compete with him?"
196: "Didn't You Want to Shake Her Hand? I'll Give You the Chance."
"6.5 million…"
The Range Rover owner's head buzzed when he heard the number.
"How can a motorcycle be so expensive?"
...
"It's not too late to find out." The traffic policeman handed his driver's license back. "I'll cover for you. Just go, don't embarrass yourself here."
"Thank you, thank you."
Under the police's care, the Range Rover owner left dejectedly, and Lin Yi left on his motorcycle without saying anything else.
Half an hour later, Lin Yi drove Ji Qingyan to Yaluo Design on his motorcycle.
When the two arrived, Lin Yi found Guan Ya and a middle-aged man waiting at the door.
As expected, they were waiting for Ji Qingyan.
"President Ji, we've been waiting for you for a long time."
Guan Ya stretched out her hand when she saw Ji Qingyan get off the motorcycle.
However, she didn't realize that the man with the helmet was Lin Yi.
At the same time, she felt a little weirded out.
With President Ji's status and self-control, why did she come on a motorcycle?
Could it be that there was a traffic jam on the road, so she decided to take a motorcycle?
"Sorry for the wait. I'm really sorry," Ji Qingyan replied apologetically.
"We're all on the same side. President Ji, you don't have to stand on ceremony."
As she spoke, Guan Ya turned to the side and introduced,
"President Ji, let me introduce you. This is Delphi's person-in-charge in the Asia-Pacific region, Mr. Chu Daoyi."
"As far as I know, Delphi is a world-class cruise ship manufacturer. It's an honor to meet Mr. Chu."
"The pleasure is mine, President Lin." Chu Daoyi extended his hand. "Although we are not in the same industry, I have heard of your name before. To be able to run a listed company at such a young age is not something that an ordinary person can do."
Ji Qingyan nodded slightly but had no intention to extend her hand.
Chu Daoyi's expression was awkward and he felt a little embarrassed.
"Chief Ji, you don't even give me a chance to shake hands with you. This is too insincere."
Guan Ya's face darkened. This fellow, who was pretending to be a good dog just now, revealed his fox tail when he saw Ji Qingyan.
Chief Ji was personally appointed by Chief Lin. Do you still want to do this deal or not?
"We are all businessmen. Talking about money is the most practical thing. Why bother with these details?"
"I think this is a matter of etiquette," Chu Daoyi said,
"Even if CEO Lin as the primary party of the project were here, he would still give me, Chu Daoyi, face."
"Who do you think you are? How are you worthy of me giving you face?"
Guan Ya and Chu Daoyi turned to look at Ji Qingyan's driver.
What was wrong with this person? He was too unruly.
"How dare he speak so rudely to me? Do you know who I, Chu Daoyi, am?"
"I didn't do anything. That's already giving you face."
Guan Ya widened her beautiful eyes. Why did this voice sound so familiar?
"Director Lin!"
Guan Ya jumped in shock when she saw Lin Yi take off his helmet.
She never thought that the person riding the motorcycle would be Lin Yi!
Chu Daoyi was also confused. "What-what did you say, Director Lin?"
"That's right, Wangjiang Dock belongs to Director Lin. He is the primary party to us all."
Chu Daoyi's face darkened as he broke out in cold sweat.
He seemed to have scolded Director Lin earlier. What should he do now?
Lin Yi raised his brows and looked at Chu Daoyi coldly.
"Didn't you want to shake hands with her? I'll give you this chance."
No matter how stupid Chu Daoyi was, he could see the relationship between the two of them.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have personally come here on a motorcycle.
"Director Lin, look at this mess. If I had known that you and Boss Ji had this kind of relationship, I wouldn't have said that."
Chu Daoyi was so nervous that he felt like he was being judged.
The project at Wangjiang Dock had already been reported to his higher-ups. The leaders of the headquarters attached great importance to it. If something went wrong because of him, he would have to resign!
"Are you scared now?"
"Yes, I know…"
"We don't need you anymore. We'll switch to another equipment dealer. Let's go," Lin Yi said.
"Director Lin, please don't. As the saying goes, those who don't know won't be blamed. Please give me another chance."
"Get lost!"
Chu Daoyi was scared out of his wits and left with a sour face.
Guan Ya sighed. What was the point?
Seeing Lin Yi sticking up for her, Ji Qingyan's heart was filled with joy. She said gently,
"I'm leaving first. Drive slowly."
Lin Yi nodded. "Do you need me to pick you up after you're done?"
"There's no need to pick me up. Do your own thing. Don't waste your time on me."
"Then I won't worry about you. Don't forget to give me five stars later."
"Tsk, what a snob. All you know are five-star reviews."
With that, Ji Qingyan took the documents and went back to the building designed by Luo Ya.
Lin Yi left on his motorcycle and started working.
By 5 pm, Lin Yi had received a total of four reviews, two good reviews and two moderate reviews.
Including Ji Qingyan's order, he had received three five-star reviews.
The mission progress had reached (14/20)
If he was lucky and worked hard, he could probably get six five-star reviews in a day. Even if he was unlucky, they should be able to do it in two days.
Ring, Ring, Ring…
Lin Yi's phone rang at this time. It was a call from Zhang Song.
"Boss, in another half an hour, my job will be completed. Where are you? Let's go eat first. I'm starving."
"Where are you? I'll come pick you up now."
"I'm at Cisco. I think I'll be done by then."
"Okay, wait for me there."
After hanging up, Lin Yi rode his motorcycle towards Cisco.
Twenty minutes later, Lin Yi arrived at the front of Cisco's building, sizing up his competitor.
As a company that focused on research and production, it was much bigger than Longxin in terms of scale.
Lin Yi hugged his helmet and smiled. "I'll be saying goodbye to you guys soon."
Not long after, Zhang Song walked out of Cisco's building. There was a man in his thirties standing beside him. The two of them were chatting happily.
Zhang Song had mentioned the man's name before. His name was Yan Hongyu, the marketing manager of Cisco.
"Director Yan, I wish us a pleasant cooperation this time." Zhang Song stretched out his hand. "But the plan for the second shipment should be scheduled as soon as possible. It's very important for us to occupy the market."
"Don't worry, I'll try my best to arrange it." Yan Hongyu said.
"But you have to know that the domestic chip market has already been occupied by Cisco, so we have a very large amount of commitments. We can only try our best to arrange this."
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Director Yan."
As he said that, Zhang Song turned around and left. He saw Lin Yi waving his hand not far away, so he quickened his pace.
"Boss, why did you change to a motorcycle? It looks too good!" Zhang Song said enviously.
"Then I'll give it to you as a gift."
"Don't, I don't even know how to ride."
Lin Yi raised his head and looked at Yan Hongyu who turned around and left. "What did you talk about today?"
"Let's not talk about it. This Cisco is too pretentious."
197: A Master Who Can Act Cool Without Batting an Eyelid
"What's going on? Weren't you two having a good talk?"
"Let's find a place to eat first. I'm starving," Zhang Song said as he rubbed his stomach.
"Sure."
...
Lin Yi took Zhang Song to Crab King's Mansion on his motorcycle, ready to have a feast.
"Alright, we're here now. Let's talk. What's going on?"
Lin Yi had a feeling that the two of them were in a tricky situation.
It was as if he was a spy buying information.
"Didn't you say that you were going to buy the goods in two batches, 130 million for the first and 120 million in the other?"
"Yeah, I thought you were going to buy the goods in three months at the very most."
"Those bastards changed their minds now. They said that the second batch will be in six months." Zhang Song said indignantly.
"They also said that the first batch of supplies might be distributed in batches. How annoying."
"No way. Weren't you having a good discussion yesterday? Why did they change their minds overnight?"
To Lin Yi, any movement from Cisco was very useful strategic information. He had to find out more about it.
"I'm not sure about the specific reason, but I got some information in the dark." Zhang Song said.
"It seems like a big company is involved, and they're very satisfied with Cisco's results. They might be holding back for these guys."
"That's possible." Lin Yi nodded lightly. "Do you know which company is involved?"
"It seems like Didi, but I'm not too sure about the details. I just overheard it, so the information might be wrong."
Lin Yi, "…"
It was his own operation after all this time.
This seemingly useless piece of information actually carried tremendous value.
It meant that Cisco was taking this order very seriously.
This was very good news for him.
As the saying goes, a big tree is good for shade. Didi was several times bigger than Cisco. This way, during the negotiation, his side would have the advantage.
It would be very beneficial to achieving their final result!
"Are you just going to sit there and wait for death? Didn't you use any other methods to threaten them?"
Lin Yi relaxed a lot after dispelling his worries. He was no longer as tense as before.
"Actually, I mentioned it too." Zhang Song said.
"I said, in the domestic semiconductor chip field, other than the few companies controlled by the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Science Group, Longxin and Cisco are the leaders in this field. If they are too stingy, they will lose their market share."
"And then?" Lin Yi asked with interest.
"That person called Yan Hongyu was very pretentious. She said that Longxin would be crushed by them very soon. He claimed that when it came to Chinese semiconductor chips, the name 'Longxin' will soon stop appearing. In short, he's just pretentious. He's just pinning me down."
Zhang Song sighed. "This Longxin is really something. Can't they fight for their reputation? It would be really bad if the market is monopolized."
Lin Yi smiled and didn't say anything else.
He Yuanyuan and Qi Xianzhao were going to Cisco the next day. He'd better check on them first.
"Alright, let's not talk about work anymore. I have nothing to do tomorrow, so I'll take you out to sea." Lin Yi smiled. "Do you need me to find you some girls to help you get out of singledom as soon as possible?"
"That'd be great!" Zhang Song's eyes lit up with a flirtatious expression.
"If we go out to sea, can we connect to the Wifi?"
"Hmm? Why would you Wifi on a ship?"
"So that we can play online games with some girls."

Lin Yi, "…"
..
The next morning at nine o'clock, He Yuanyuan and Qi Xianzhao arrived at the entrance of Cisco's shares.
Unlike the others, the Rolls-royce was parked at the main entrance of the company.
Normally, only big shots would receive such treatment.
Obviously, Qi Xianzhao and He Yuanyuan's statuses were enough.
Lin Yi had arranged for Qi Xianzhao to be the vice-president of Didi, while He Yuanyuan was the vice-president's secretary.
Although this status was high enough, Lin Yi still played a sneaky trick.
He leaked that He Yuanyuan was Cheng Shuang's cousin, and Qi Xianzhao was the son of a certain shareholder.
It was all gossip, but it was enough for the people in the industry to catch wind of it after a while.
This was why Cisco paid so much attention to them!
One was the cousin sister of CEO Cheng Shuang, and the other was the son of a shareholder. Their identities were extremely important, and they weren't just throwaway personnel.
This deal today could change the direction of the tech industry.
However, the person who suffered the most was none other than Qi Xianzhao.
His identity was the son of a certain shareholder, and Lin Yi happened to be Didi's second largest shareholder.
It was interesting to look at it this way.
"Hello, Director Qi."
Yan Hongyu smiled and introduced, "The person beside me is the vice chairman of our company's sales department, Mr. Yun Jieming."
"Nice to meet you."
Qi Xianzhao extended his hand, solemn and cautious.
"Nice to meet you, Director Qi. I've heard a lot about you. You are so young and promising, Director Qi." Yun Jieming said with a smile.
He Yuanyuan was speechless and couldn't help but complain.
Brother Qi had just returned from the United States and had not been in the country before. What the hell was so promising about him?
You really knew how to talk nonsense.
This reminded He Yuanyuan of the impotent man Lin Yi was talking about.
She really couldn't be shameless when it came to doing business.
"Director Yun, you're too kind."
"This isn't the place to talk. Please come in, Let's go to the conference room to talk slowly."
"Okay."
The group arrived at the conference room under the lead of Yun Jieming.
At this time, there were several executives at the door of the conference room, all of them here to promote this business.
"Director Qi, let me introduce you. This is the President of our Cisco Research Institute, Liu Chu. He is an expert in the domestic chip field and also the keynote speaker for today's meeting."
"Okay, Director Yun is thoughtful," Qi Xianzhao said expressionlessly.
"Of course."
The group of people took their seats. Qi Xianzhao and He Yuanyuan were ushered to the main seat. The former looked at his watch and said,
"Director Yun, I have to fly to Paris in the afternoon. I'm in a bit of a hurry. Please try to shorten the pitch. I came here with absolute sincerity. Let's talk openly and honestly."
Seeing Qi Xianzhao's indifferent appearance, He Yuanyuan called out in her heart, "Boss Lin, you're so full of yourself!"!
In just a short day, the serious Brother Qi had been groomed into an expert who could act pretentiously without batting an eyelid.
He could even be compared to the best female lead at the top of the acting industry.
In the entire country, there were only a handful of people who could be compared to Director Lin! Their numbers could be counted on one hand!
"Alright, then let's cut to the chase and talk openly!"
Seeing Qi Xianzhao show this sincerity, Yun Jieming and Yan Hongyu could not hold back the excitement in their hearts.
"Director Liu, regarding the chip, let's pick the key areas and patents and introduce them to Director Qi."
"Okay!"
For the next ten minutes, only Liu Chu was talking in the meeting room, until Qi Xianzhao interrupted him.
"Director Yun, I have a few questions that I want to confirm with you."
"Chariman Qi, please speak."
"In the introduction just now, Director Liu mentioned more than twenty patented technologies. These technologies should be in the hands of your company, right?"
"Of course, Director Qi, you can rest assured on this point," Yun Jieming said confidently,
"If you are not assured, I can bring the patented technologies over for you to take a look."
"There's no need for that. I trust Director Yun's character," Qi Xianzhao said faintly.
"Actually, before signing the contract, I want to confirm one thing–whether our chip technology is top in the country!"
198: This Part Isn't Part of the Script!
"Hehe…"
Yun Jieming laughed, "If Director Qi is worried about this, then you'd be overthinking."
After saying that, Yun Jieming looked at Liu Chu, "Director Liu, you're the expert when it comes to the chip technology. Explain it to Director Qi."
...
"Okay!"
Liu Chu straightened his expression and smiled at Qi Xianzhao, "Director Qi, in terms of technology, I can assure you that our scientific research level is definitely the best in the industry. Even the research institutes controlled by the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Chinese Science Institute are far behind us. Our level of technology is definitely not a problem. At the very least, no one will surpass us in the next five years!"
Liu Chu was certain of this because of the patented technology in his hands!
Even if Longxin could develop it in a short time, these patents were his trump card!
If they released the same technology as Chip 1.0, it would be an infringement!
In the end, they would be forced to stop.
Thinking of this, Liu Chu's lips curled into a faint smile as he cursed in his heart:
"Damn it, fire me will you? From now on, I will make sure that Longxin will never be able to rise again!"
"Are you sure that no one will surpass you?" Qi Xianzhao said, "As far as I know, Longxin is also an outstanding player in this area, so don't talk big."
Qi Xianzhao's professionalism surprised Yun Jieming and the others.
They did not expect him to know so much about scientific research.
It seemed that this person did not rely on his connections to become the vice president. He had real talent.
"Director Qi, what you know is only on the surface." Liu Chu said,
"To tell you the truth, I have worked in the Longxin Research Institute before. I Can put my hand on my heart and assure you that Longxin is a full-fledged fraud of a company. Every piece of technology of theirs was plagiarized in one form or another. It was because I did not want to be associated with them that I left in anger and finally came to Cisco."
He Yuanyuan looked at Liu Chu with interest.
Although she did not know how capable this person was, he had the potential to be a businessman.
He was really shameless.
"Since Director Liu said this, I am relieved," Qi Xianzhao said, "I think we can sign the contract."
Yun Jieming and Yan Hongyu's eyes lit up. They did not expect the negotiation to go so smoothly!
"Director Qi is really straightforward. I will get someone to prepare it now!"
"Director Yun, don't be anxious. Before you prepare the contract, I have another request to make," said Qi Xianzhao.
"Director Qi, you said that as long as it is within my capabilities, it will not be a problem."
"In order to ensure our mutual interests, I wish to add a clause in the contract, a guarantee regarding the advancement of the chip."
Yun Jieming and the others present were all confused, not quite understanding what Qi Xianzhao meant.
"It's very simple, this is to guarantee that no one will be able to surpass your products within a year!"
"This…"
Everyone in the meeting room was silent.
According to the advancement the domestic chip industry forget a year, even within the next five years, it was unlikely that anyone would be able to surpass them.
However, nothing was absolute. In this matter, the possibility still existed.
Just like someone saying that Mars would collide with Earth tomorrow. It was extremely unlikely, but kind of thing could happen.
Because no one could predict the future, no one knew what would happen tomorrow.
However, Yun Jieming and Yan Hongyu were both old foxes in the business world. They still wanted to leave a way out for themselves.
It had to be said that this person called Qi Xianzhao really had some skill, as he identified the most crucial point in an instant.
"Director Qi, do we really have to add this?"After a few seconds of silence, Yun Jieming asked.
"This request isn't too much, right?" Qi Xianzhao said plainly,
"We came with sincerity, don't tell me Director Yun can't even bring out this bit of sincerity to match us?"
"But…"
Qi Xianzhao's gaze swept over Yun Jieming and the others one by one.
"The few of you are so hesitant. Could it be that there's something about your technology that's fake?" Qi Xianzhao said,
"I remember that you guys just said that within the next five years, no one will be able to surpass you. My request is only to guarantee a year's worth of industry control. Could it be that you can't even do this?"
As he spoke, Qi Xianzhao stood up, his expression cold.
"Yuanyuan, let's go. There's no need to continue talking."
"Eh eh? go?"
He Yuanyuan was dumbfounded.
What was going on?
This was not part of the script!
It was going fine, why did you add so much drama by yourself?
Before He Yuanyuan could react, Yun Jieming stood up, smiled apologetically, and stopped Qi Xianzhao.
"Director Qi, please don't be angry. Your request isn't too much, we'll agree to it." Yun Jieming said, "I'll get my secretary to add this clause to the contract."
"It's too late!" Qi Xianzhao said, "Your attitude just now has already made me suspicious."
He Yuanyuan was at a loss.
Brother Qi's acting was too real. She couldn't follow up in the rest of the scenes.
No wonder Boss Lin wanted Brother Qi to play the role of vice president. Did Mo Fei take a fancy to his potential?
To perform at this level, a person without any talent would find it impossible.
"Chairman Qi, I understand your concerns. In order to express our sincerity, I can promise you that if we can't guarantee the domination of our product over the next year, we will pay three times the contract amount as a penalty!"
"Three times?" Qi Xianzhao sneered, "Just three times, do you think my face is so worthless?"
"Then five times!" Yun Jieming said, "Director Qi came with sincerity, so please believe in our Cisco's sincerity!"
Qi Xianzhao's expression was moved, "Get someone to prepare the contract."
"Okay!"
Seeing that Qi Xianzhao did not pursue it further, Yun Jieming was relieved.
Qi Xianzhao's expression was calm as he fiddled with his phone. "The contract amount is 3 billion!"
3 billion!
Hearing this number, Cisco's people were dumbfounded!
No one expected Qi Xianzhao to say such an astonishing number!
Not only Cisco's people were dumbfounded, He Yuanyuan was also dumbfounded!
Before they came, Lin Yi said 1 billion. How did you increase it to 3 billion?
Could it be that he was too engrossed in his character and went crazy?
Things could easily go wrong!
He Yuanyuan couldn't stand it anymore. For the sake of the bigger picture, she said,
"Chairman Qi, I think it's better to be a bit more conservative. If we sign an order for three billion in one go, it will have a lot of negative effects on the company's future business development."
"I know your worries," Qi Xianzhao said. "You're afraid that Cisco's chip won't undeniably lead the industry over the next year."
He Yuanyuan didn't know how to act anymore.
This was because every word Qi Xianzhao said went beyond the scope of the script.
She could only accompany him and improvise.
I don't know this question. It's too damn difficult!
199: The Final Victory is A Thousand Miles Away from the Planning Tent
The people on Cisco's side didn't say anything.
They were all holding their breath, waiting for Qi Xianzhao's response.
1 billion and 3 billion!
...
The difference was no small amount!
If they could get a big order of 3 billion, then Cisco would be unrivalled in the entire country!
They might even become a world-class technology company!
However, if they only signed for 1 billion dollars, then the impact would not be as great.
Everyone's gaze fell on He Yuanyuan.
If she was just an ordinary CEO's secretary, so she wouldn't have the qualifications to say such things.
However, according to the rumors, this He Yuanyuan was the younger sister of Didi's CEO, Cheng Shuang!
This kind of status would give her enough say!
Moreover, the two of them were still lovers, so her words would definitely affect Qi Xianzhao's decision!
"You're right. I'm just afraid that their products won't be able to maintain a technological lead for the coming year. This will have a huge impact on our company's future layout and planning. It won't be something that liquidated damages can afford."
At this point, He Yuanyuan didn't know how to act anymore. She could only improvise.
"Actually, I also have such concerns," Qi Xianzhao replied faintly. "In that case, I'll listen to you. We'll sign the one billion contract first."
He Yuanyuan heaved a sigh of relief. She had finally pulled Brother Qi back.
The Cisco team's expressions fell. They hadn't expected that in just a minute, the three billion contract would shrink to one billion!
This made the executives present a little unable to accept it!
"Director Qi, before you make your decision, can you give us a few minutes?"
"Okay," Qi Xianzhao replied indifferently with an imposing aura.
He Yuanyuan was impressed. Brother Qi was really a natural actor. No wonder he earned more than her in the past.
After buying a few minutes, Yun Jieming, Yan Hongyu, and Liu Chu went to the stairwell outside the conference room and lit a cigarette.
"Director Liu, regarding the competitiveness of the product, there shouldn't be any problems, right?"
This was the issue that Yun Jieming was most concerned about. Whether he could win this big deal or not depended on Liu Chu.
"In my opinion, it shouldn't be a problem to ensure the competitiveness of the product for the next year."
"I don't want to hear the 'should', I want a definite answer." Yun Jieming replied.
He was only the vice president who was in charge of sales. The other vice presidents had more authority than him.
Whether he could become the number one person below the president in the future would depend on this project.
Liu Chu went through the research and development process of the chip in his mind.
In the end, he gave a definite answer, "No problem!"
Yun Jieming wanted to rely on this project to solidify his position in the company. So did Liu Chu.
If he could not give a definite answer, his position in the company would definitely plummet in the future.
Moreover, the chip 1.0 technology was definitely the best in the industry.
Other than Longxin, no one else had the capability to create such a thing, and Longxin was currently trapped.
In that case, it was impossible for others to develop a more efficient chip in a year's time!
"Alright! This is the answer I want!"
The three of them put out their cigarette butts and returned to the meeting room.
"I'm really sorry to have kept you two waiting," said Yun Jieming politely.
"It's alright."
"Director Qi, I know that your concerns are focused on the competitiveness of the product. If we guarantee that the product is ahead in terms of development, will you be able to dispel your concerns in this regard?" Yun Jieming proposed seriously.
"Yes, I can."
"Then, I, as the vice president of Cisco Holdings Limited, guarantee to you that over the next year, we will definitely be ahead in terms of technology!" Yun Jieming said,
"And in order to express our sincerity, as long as Director Qi signs an order of three billion, we can compensate you with ten times the contract amount for any breach of contract. Now, this should be able to dispel your doubts, right?"
He Yuanyuan rolled her eyes. Even if you said a hundred times, it would be useless.
Boss Lin only gave him 1 billion dollars, and that was all he could work with.
"Since Director Yun has said so, I can't be too stingy. 3 billion it is. Get someone to prepare the contract!"
He Yuanyuan was stunned once again. What was Brother Qi doing?!
It wasn't easy for her to pull him back. Why was he free to do as he pleased again?!
Suddenly, He Yuanyuan realized that her hand was being held under the table.
It was Brother Qi!
Suddenly, He Yuanyuan realized that Brother Qi's rationale was still there, and there might be other reasons behind him doing this.
"Okay, I will get someone to prepare the contract now!"
"Okay, Go!"
Ten minutes later, Yun Jiemings secretary walked in with a thick stack of contracts.
Qi Xianzhao and He Yuanyuan demonstrated their high level of business acumen. They carefully read through the contract and found no problems, so they signed it.
Seeing Qi Xianzhao sign it, Yun Jieming heaved a sigh of relief.
The contract was signed, and it was a done deal.
A full three billion dollar contract!
It was two billion more than expected!
With this contract, his position in the company would be below only one person and above ten thousand people!
The other vice presidents would be trampled under his feet!
After the contract was signed, the executives of both parties stood up and shook hands.
"Director Qi, thank you for your trust in Cisco. We definitely won't let you down. I hope we can work together in the future."
"We will. Let's hope we will have a successful relationship." Lin Yi said.

Qi Xianzhao and He Yuanyuan left Cisco under the escort of a group of executives and got into Lin Yi's Rolls-Royce.
"This isn't human work."
Qi Xianzhao was like a deflated balloon after leaving Cisco. He half-collapsed on the backseat, as if all his energy had been drained.
"Qi, what's going on? It's one thing for you to add drama to your show, but why did you increase the contract amount to three billion?" He Yuanyuan asked.
"Just look at this message."
Qi Xianzhao handed his phone to He Yuanyuan. There was a message from Lin Yi on it.
"Increase the contract amount to three billion."
"What's going on? Didn't he say one billion? How did it increase to three billion?"
"I don't know either. I wouldn't dare to say that if I didn't hear from President Lin."
"No wonder you were playing with your phone during the meeting. So you've heard from him," He Yuanyuan said.
"But why did you change your mind at this crucial moment? If Cisco saw this, all our efforts would have been wasted."
Qi Xianzhao shrugged. "President Lin is full of ideas, so who knows?"
At first, Lin Yi set the contract amount at one billion because he only had so much money in his pocket.
But yesterday, he completed the system mission and rewarded another two billion. He had a total of three and a half billion in working capital.

After thinking about it, Lin Yi left 500 million for the normal operation and expenses of the company. The remaining three billion was used for this gamble!
"I'll have to ask Lin about it when we get back," He Yuanyuan said, relieved.
"But Qi Bro, I just found out that you're really talented in acting. You even know how to add scenes for yourself. If it wasn't for my quick reaction, I wouldn't have known how to act."
"It's all thanks to Lin's good teaching/ I played hard to get with them," Qi Xianzhao said,
"If it weren't for Boss Lin's guidance, how would I know so much?"
"You're right. Boss Lin has so many tricks up his sleeve. No ordinary person can compare to him."
"I don't know about others, but I'm convinced," Qi Xianzhao said with a smile,
"Even if I don't make it to the top in the future, it'll be because of myself and no one else."
"Yeah. If I don't succeed in anything while working with such a boss, it'll really be my own fault," He Yuanyuan said seriously,
"But there's also the risk of losing my life in the process. It's better to hurry up and invite Buddha to come back and worship him on the fifteenth day of the New Year."
..
After Qi Xianzhao and He Yuanyuan left, Yun Jieming took the contract and went to the president's office.
In the president's office sat a man in his fifties. He was fat and had white hair on the sides of his head, but his aura was still strong.
The man's name was Cao Jiadong, the boss of Cisco Ltd.
When he saw Yun Jieming walk in, Cao Jiadong stood up.
"How's the negotiation going, is there a problem?"
Yun Jieming handed over the contract and said excitedly,
"President Cao, everything is settled, and the final contract amount is set at 3 billion. After lying dormant for so many years, our Cisco is finally about to have a chance to take off!"
"3 billion!"
Cao Jiadong looked surprised, "Didn't we agree on 1 billion before, why did it increase so much?"
Yun Jieming smiled, his face still glowing with pride.
"Initially, the other party only wanted to sign an order of 1 billion, but because I negotiated with them, I successfully got them to sign an order of 3 billion."
"Not bad, not bad."
Cao Jiadong said with satisfaction, but his expression was not as excited as Yun Jieming had expected.
Having been in the business world for many years, Cao Jiadong deeply understood the principle of not getting up early without benefits.
It was not normal for him to add two billion without any additional clauses.
"How is the contract structured?" Cao Jiadong asked, "Did they sign according to our wishes?"
"Yes." Yun Jieming nodded, "They only made one request which is that we must guarantee that our products will be the most technologically advanced in the country. Other than that, they did not make any other requests."
200: I'm on an Expedition in Africa
Cao Jiadong's smile froze. After a few seconds, he said slowly,
"This was their only request?"
"That's right."
...
Playing with the pen in his hand, Cao Jiadong said,
"These days, we have received quite a number of orders, but Didi seems to be the first to make such a request. Is there any risk involved?"
"Don't worry, President Cao. I've thought about this issue carefully." Yun Jieming said.
"Didi is the leader of the domestic travel industry. Their big data is crucial to the operation of the company."
"According to my guess, the reason why Didi is so interested in the competitiveness of its products is to ensure its position in the industry."
Cao Jiadong nodded. "If that's the case, it makes sense, but have you talked to Liu Chu about the competitiveness of its products?"
"I have!" Yun Jieming said.
"Right now, we and Longxin are the only ones in the market. We have conquered the terminal program of the control unit, but we have firmly restrained Longxin."
"Other than that, all the patented technologies have already been declared. Even later on, other scientific research institutions will have developed the same terminal program. However, they will definitely need to use our patented technology. It is no problem for us to guarantee our absolute competitiveness for the coming year."
"As for the identity of the other party, there shouldn't be any problems, right?"
"We've already confirmed that these two are indeed Didi's newly appointed senior executives. In terms of process, there shouldn't be any problems." The more Yun Jieming spoke, the more excited he became.
"Now, with this 3 billion order, Cisco's future will definitely rise to a higher level, and it will become the leader of the industry in one leap. No one will be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with us!"
Cao Jiadong lit a cigarette and leaned against the back of his chair, saying,
"This contract is too large. With our production capacity and the supply of the capital chain, I'm afraid it will be difficult to keep up. I hope that they can make a portion of the advance payment to show their sincerity. Only then will we be able to work freely."
Yun Jieming's expression was a little awkward, "I'll try my best."
"I know this task is a little difficult, but I'm also testing Didi's attitude. If they can transfer 500 million in project funds in advance, we can inform the factory to kickstart production." Cao Jiadong said.
"As for the other orders, delay them as much as you can. Do your best to maintain the cooperation with Didi. This is the turning point for Cisco's meteoric rise. We mustn't make any mistakes!"
"Please rest assured, president Cao. I'll definitely complete the task perfectly!"
…
Lin Yi and Zhang Song were at Wangjiang Dock when He Yuanyuan and Qi Xianzhao returned triumphantly.
He had just parked his car when He Yuanyuan's call came.
"Boss Lin, the mission was completed successfully. We signed an order of three billion dollars. If the other party defaults, they will pay ten times the penalty fee."
"Huh? Ten Times?"
Lin Yi was confused. "I asked you to fight for three times the penalty fee, but you got ten times?"
"Brother Qi added a scene for himself at the scene. He asked Cisco's people to increase the penalty fee to ten times. Even I, a veteran actress from the acting industry, was stunned by his acting skills."
"Awesome!" Lin Yi said. "Add a drumstick to Old Qi's dinner tonight, and the company will reimburse the expenses."
He Yuanyuan's news was a pleasant surprise to Lin Yi.
According to his original plan, he could only cripple Cisco, but now he could directly kill them.
He didn't need to give them crutches, he could just order the urn immediately.
"Lin, where are you? The first step of the plan has been completed. What should we do next? Shouldn't we make some arrangements?" He Yuanyuan asked.
"It's difficult at this point,"Lin Yi said awkwardly. "I'm planning to set up a factory in Africa soon, and I'm doing some research here."
"Africa?" He Yuanyuan raised her voice. "The domestic sector is so good, so why are you building a factory in Africa?"
"You don't understand. Africa is vast and sparsely populated, and the labor force is unsaturated. It can even create more jobs for executives like you. It's a good thing."
"Lin, you're working too hard. Don't tire yourself out too much. If you have work that you can't finish, just leave it to me and Brother Qi. Why do you have to do it yourself?"
"It's okay. I'm the boss. It's only natural for me to do more," Lin Yi said. "I can't be a heartless boss. I have to treat my employees well…"
"Boss, this dock is too big, and the beach is full of white-legged girls. It's too exciting," Zhang Song exclaimed.
He Yuanyuan, "???"
"Boss Lin, there are white-legged girls in Africa too?"
"The number you called is not in the service area…"
After hanging up, Lin Yi unbuckled his seatbelt and got out of the car. "Don't be so surprised, you almost scared me to death."
"It's mostly because it's my first time seeing so many white thighs. I'm so excited," Zhang Song said. "I just don't know what their level is, but I'm going to join the competition shortly."
Lin Yi, "…:
After parking the car, Lin Yi took Zhang Song to the operations hall. They were going to rent a boat and take him out to play.
"It's you!"
Just as they entered the operations hall, they heard a scream before Lin Yi could say anything.
They turned their heads and noticed that the person who spoke to them seemed familiar.
Lin Yi looked at him for a few seconds before remembering that he was a student from the engineering school.
The person standing at the front was Zhang Jian. On the other side, the girl with exposed thighs was called Zhao Weiran.
"Brother Lin."
Zhao Weiran was surprised to see Lin Yi, so she quickly walked up to him.
"I added you on wechat the other day, why didn't you add me back?" Zhao Weiran said bitterly.
Shoo! Shoo! Shoo! Shoo!
Everyone in the hall turned their eyes to Lin Yi.
There was a beauty who added him on wechat the moment he walked in. He was so handsome that he could do whatever he wanted.
"I've been so busy these past few days that I forgot to add you on wechat," Lin Yi said with a smile.
"Can you add me now?"
"Sure."
Lin Yi didn't dislike this silly and cute girl at all. Thus, he added her back on wechat.
Zhang Song was dumbfounded when he saw this. His boss's standards were too high.
It was awesome that he could have such a high-quality girl add him on wechat just for fun.
When could he reach this stage?!
She must have done a good job with pesticide since she was such a studious beauty.
"Handsome, handsome, do you still remember me?"
Jin Qiao walked over while the two were talking.
"I don't think so."
"Did you forget? You asked me for directions that day."Jin Qiao said excitedly, not showing any hint of disappointment because Lin Yi forgot about her.
"I remember now," Lin Yi said. "I think someone confessed to you at the school gate that day."
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, but I didn't agree to it. I didn't think we were suitable for each other," Jin Qiao said shyly.
"No way. I think that guy's pretty good. He doesn't seem to have any flaws apart from his ugliness." Lin Yi said.
"I rejected him because he's ugly."
Sun Ning, "…"
This matter was already in the past. Can you guys not drag me out to beat a dead horse?
"Qiaoqiao, why are you still paying attention to him? He's just an errand boy!"
