Chapter 817: Chapter 333: The Price of a Meal! (Part 2)

Don’t be fooled by Li Yang’s usual patience; it’s mainly because they haven’t spent much time together.

If they were together every day, he’d already be fed up.

Li Yang explained, "If you don’t take the child, my parents will definitely come to pick him up in a few days and take the child with them, which also makes it easier to find an excuse."

Jiang Banxia laughed, "I think you’re afraid of your parents hitting you, right?"

"Ahem, once I’m done with the next few months, I’ll run away, so they won’t be able to hit me."

"To the Capital City?"

"To Jiangbei, could also be Zhongzhou, especially since Supersonic Car’s headquarters is in Zhongzhou."

"Hmm, well, I don’t handle the operations of Supersonic Car... If they’re short on cash, that’s doable."

Jiang Banxia isn’t good at those things; she didn’t even manage Fuguang Group back then.

Only companies like Wanliu Capital, which have a simple structure and can handle all businesses solo, are suitable for her.

"No problem, I can handle it myself."

The order of 270,000 vehicles for Supersonic Car was given by Jiang Banxia in 2018, and the decision to build a factory in Zhongzhou as a subsidiary of Extreme Shadow Group was made last year.

The vehicle cost for Supersonic Car isn’t low either; it uses technology that’s a generation behind Shaking Light, costing around 250,000.

However, every Supersonic Car will have a big data collection agreement, with data collectors installed in the cars, so data from each vehicle will be uploaded to Extreme Shadow Group. Therefore... the vehicle price can be reduced by 100,000.

A car priced around 280,000 is actually sold for 180,000 to Supersonic Car.

Based on the current production line, they produce about 6,000 cars per month.

...

Although restrictions have been lifted, many people who lost their jobs still can’t get them back.

With their previous foundations, they might be able to last another three to five months.

If their family assets are better, lasting two to three years wouldn’t be a big issue either.

But the fact is, unemployment is increasing in the market.

Li Yang actually has quite a legacy now; others are well aware of how much money he and Jiang Banxia have in their accounts and how much they spend annually.

This time, all things considered, about 30 billion was donated domestically, plus the amount given to online users, totaling 50 billion.

No major domestic enterprise has ever achieved this.

The calm and peace in Jiangbei is due to Green Water Group spending money; otherwise, rumors would definitely be flying everywhere.

Actually, some issues have emerged in Jiangbei, but they haven’t erupted or formed online rumors.

Li Yang once saw a photo of Ye Bingcheng participating in an interview, and over three months, he looked significantly thinner because he truly gave his all during those three months.

If he hadn’t, the transport of Green Water Group’s supplies wouldn’t have gone so smoothly.

Never expect others to successfully handle a major event.

It’s like being in a large group; if the leaders do nothing, there’s an 80% chance the company won’t successfully complete a big project.

Even if it eventually succeeds, the costs involved are unimaginable.

That’s why when a large group and a small company work on the same project, a small company might get it done for 5 billion, while a large group needs 50 billion.

The advantage of a large group is considering everything comprehensively, leaving virtually no loopholes. Meanwhile, a small company can’t consider all those aspects, but it definitely has the lowest cost-effectiveness.

Li Yang’s companies encompass both aspects.

All the money is spent wisely, as he is the one to make the final call on all projects. He knows the right path to take, achieving the efficiency of a small company while maintaining the pace of a large group.

If Green Water Group experiences problems with its transport supplies, Ye Bingcheng might be in great peril.

There could be many kinds of issues, such as problems with supplies causing infections, or the driver having issues and sneaking into the city.

Moreover, supplies could be withheld, not discharged on time.

People with high scores on moral exams don’t necessarily have high awareness or significant views on major issues.

The current result is the best for both parties; Li Yang immediately stopped the donations once restrictions were lifted to avoid extra troubles for himself.

Li Yang will just focus on his own matters next and do whatever he wants within his own group, without others interfering.

Extreme Shadow Group plans to hire 50,000 people this year, and Green Water Group also needs to recruit another 10,000 to 20,000.

The primary need is Supersonic Car, which requires employing a large number of drivers here.

Initially, without customers, they’ll run routes to optimize the smart driving algorithm through large data sets.

It’s definitely not feasible to calculate based on order volume; what everyone needs is stability.

Eventually, Supersonic Car will sign labor contracts with all drivers, but the starting salary won’t be too high, like around 4,000; otherwise, he can’t afford it.

...

Ye Bingcheng hosted Feng Jianhui in Jiangzhou. As two old friends from many years ago, meeting again, things have dramatically changed.

Feng Jianhui watched as Ye Bingcheng grew more outstanding by the day, while he himself?

Originally, he thought it was good to have what he has now, but when comparing people, competition always becomes concerning.

Before, he felt Ye Bingcheng was slightly better than him, but not by much.

And now...

He almost feels unqualified to be Ye Bingcheng’s follower.

Probably in a few months, Ye Bingcheng will move on to work somewhere else.

Ye Bingcheng is only 39 this year!

Taking a sip of tea, Feng Jianhui said, "This time I came because I heard some rumors, and I came specially to congratulate my little brother."

Feng Jianhui is one year older than Ye Bingcheng.

Ye Bingcheng shook his head and said, "It’s too early to make judgments about such speculative matters. However, I want to ask you a question, old brother; do you regret it or not?"
