“The video is so blurred that I can’t confirm that it’s Ding Ning. Even if it’s him, what can he do as an Internet celebrity? He’s an ordinary doctor at most. Can he offer you a life with a big house and a luxury car?”

Chu Yunxiu bounced up an angry old hen and asked, “Think about the nephew of Aunt Wang. He runs a company with the assets of hundreds of millions yuan, drives a luxury car and lives in a villa. Besides, he’s so capable. He can raised our compensation to 95,000 yuan per square meter by talking with the president of Hongda Real Estate. Can Ding Ning do that?”

“He can’t do that now, but it doesn’t mean he can’t do that in the future.”

Ling Yun stiffened her neck and said stubbornly. She believed that Ding Ning wouldn’t be just an ordinary doctor in the future.

“Let’s talk about it after he can. Now dress up and go out with me. Dress up smartly tonight, and make me proud of you!”

Chu Yunxiu decisively stopped talking about Ding Ning. She knew that as long as they talked about Ding Ning, Ling Yun would never give in.

She secretly decided to throw Ding Ning out as soon as he came back. Anyway, the house was going to be pulled down, and there was a reason to throw him away.

As long as Ding Ning was far away from Ling Yun, they couldn’t often meet each other. Ling Yun would find that she had a better choice after spending more time with the nephew of Aunt Wang. Maybe she would get over Ding Ning.

In the heavily guarded Simao Military Area, there was a sentry post within several steps. Even Ding Ning had to call Zhou Yaozu and asked him to come out and pick him up.

It seemed that Monkey’s assassination made the leaders of the military region extremely angry. Someone sneaked in a border defense military area and almost killed Monkey.

No, to be exact, Monkey had been killed. If his heart was not on the right, the killer would succeed.

It was a great shame for the military region, but it was a normal thing for Ding Ning.

After all, those black-clad men with masks were well-trained. They were not weaker than the special forces, especially good at stealth and assassination. They could never be treated as ordinary people.

Although Simao Military Region was a border defense military region, no special forces were stationed here. It was understandable that those black-clad men could come and go without being discovered.

According to Zhou Yaozu’s narration, Ding Ning knew that the black-clad men also did him a favor. In the early morning, people from the media and the hospital came to surround the gate of the military area. They wanted to interview Ding Ning, but left after being refused by the military area. Otherwise, if he was stuck with them, he could never easily get away.

Ding Ning was eager to go back to Ninghai. After exchanging phone numbers with Zhou Yaozu, he took his luggage and hurried to the airport.

Zhou Yaozu repeatedly asked him to stay. However, seeing he have decided to go, Zhou Yaozu drove him to the airport and kept inviting him to come here when he had time.

Five hours later, Ding Ning appeared at Ninghai Hongkou Airport and stopped a taxi to drive him to the Precision Technology Instrument Company in Yangpu District.

Compared with the distance from his residence to the precision technology instrument company, it was closer to go there from the airport. He made a phone call to Xiao Nuo on his way. Xiao Nuo’s relieved voice made him feel warm.

Ninghai Precision Technology Instrument Company was a large and capable company with its own 18-storey office building and production plant.

The president Xia Ziyu was a man in his forties. He didn’t look like a businessman, but looked like a scholar instead. He looked bookish, wearing wire-rimmed glasses and a well-fitting white shirt. His gentle and elegant temperament was pretty likable. Besides, he showed a very enthusiastic attitude towards Ding Ning. As soon as Ding Ning entered his office, he hurriedly asked the beautiful female secretary to serve him tea, which showed that he paid enough attention to him.

“Mr. Hu has always been the traditional Chinese medicine master that I admire. You don’t know that I had severely suffered from gout. I visited all the hospitals, but my condition had never been improved. After someone introduced Mr. Hu to me, I went to visit him. I didn’t expect that just after a course of treatment, my gout was cured. Later, I went to Mr. Hu’s home with gifts to show my gratitude several times, but he refused to accept them. He’s really an elder doctor with a benevolent heart.”

Xia Ziyu was very talkative, and directly looked at Ding Ning’s eyes while talking, which made Ding Ning feel that he was very sincere.

Ding Ning said with a chuckle, “Mr. Hu is indeed an elder who deserves respect. We are good friends despite difference in age. President Xia, this time I make bold to visit you, because I want to ask you for a favor.”

“Hey, as a friend of Mr. Hu, you are also my friend. Stop calling me President Xia. If you think well of me, just call me brother Xia. Tell me what you want. As long as I can help you, I will never refuse you.”

Xia Ziyu said brightly.

“Since you said that, I’d better do as you asked. I will tell you what I want.”

Ding Ning took out the design drawing and handed it to him, “Well, brother Xia, I plan to customize a batch of strength instruments like this here. All data has been marked on it. I’m wondering if you can produce them according to the standard.”

Xia Ziyu looked at the drawing carefully, and he frowned slightly, “Brother Ding, can make bold to ask, what is this used for? I have never seen such a strange instrument.”

“You can consider it a massaging machine. I’m wondering if you can produce it.”

It was not that Ding Ning intended to hide it from him. He just thought that it was not necessarily a good thing to tell him in advance before it was clinically tested.

“I think I can do it.” Xia Ziyu first confirmed that he could accept this order, and then changed his voice in embarrassment, “But it could cost a lot.”

“How much does it probably cost?” Ding Ning asked nervously. Xia Ziyu looked straightforward, but no one knew if he would demand an exorbitant price. After all, he had only one million and one hundred thousand yuan in total.

Xia Ziyu looked at his nervous face and suddenly smiled, “Brother Ding, take it easy. Let me explain to you. Most of our instruments are finished products, but there are customized instruments. Most of them have ready-made templates, but the instrument you want has no ready-made template, so its price is relatively higher. After all, the template of any instrument costs the most. It costs about 1.5 million to make the template. I want to know, how many do you want to order?”

Ding Ning was disheartened, and replied after pondering, “I probably need a thousand of them at the beginning.”

“What about later?” Xia Ziyu showed the sagacity of a businessman at the moment, and kept asking.

“If they meet quality standards, we can cooperate for a long time, and the demand in the later stage may greatly increase.”

Ding Ning remained thoughtful for a few seconds and then replied categorically. He knew that Xia Ziyu had his reason to ask that question.

“Well, brother Ding, since you call me brother Xia, I’m not going to talk nonsense with you. As long as you sign an exclusive production contract with our company, I will exempt the expense at the beginning and charge you a hundred yuan for producing an instrument in the future. Is that okay?”

Xia Ziyu forthright slapped the table and said, while fixedly staring at Ding Ning. It seemed that he was a little worried that Ding Ning would disagree, which made the beautiful secretary next to them opened her eyes wide in shock.

Ding Ning looked at him thoughtfully, and then reached out with a smile, “I’m looking forward for a pleasant cooperation. We can sign the contract at any time.”

“Good, you’re straightforward. Sisi, draft a contract.”

Xia Ziyu resolutely told the secretary.

Although the secretary was confused, she still went to print the contract as he asked.

After that, they no longer talked about business, and began to chat aimlessly.

To be honest, Xia Ziyu was a very knowledgeable person with unique views on economy, politics, cultural geography, international situations etc.

They talked happily with each other, seemingly regretting they hadn’t met earlier.

From their conversation, Ding Ning knew that Xia Ziyu came from the countryside of Nanxiang. After graduating from high school, he could not afford to go to college, so he went to work in Ninghai with nothing.

He had waited at table and washed bowls at restaurants, as well as slept under the overpass and fed on instant noodles. Nevertheless, no matter how harsh life was and how poor he was, he had never forgotten to enrich himself. He participated in various training as long as he had some spare money. He learned knowledge with avidity, and had received a master degree now.

Knowledge changed destiny. With his knowledge reserve and unique vision and resolution, he spent more than ten years to create the current grand enterprise and became a typical first-generation rich man.

Recalling his experience when he first went to work in Ninghai, Xia Ziyu sighed. It made Ding Ning deeply admire him. One’s success was no accident. Opportunities were reserved for those who were prepared. Xia Ziyu’s experience could be considered the most inspirational history of building up a family fortune.

“President Xia, I’ve printed the contract.”

The secretary named Sisi curiously looked at Ding Ning and respectfully said to Xia Ziyu.

It made Ding Ning increasingly admire Xia Ziyu. Nowadays, the president always asked his secretary to do everything for him, and slept with his secretary when there was nothing to do.

However, he could tell from the secretary’s eyes that Xia Ziyu had never slept with this beautiful female secretary.

“Brother Ding, check the contract. If there is anything wrong with it, we can modify it.”

Xia Ziyu took over the contract and handed it to Ding Ning.

Ding Ning read it carefully and found nothing wrong. He signed the contract, reached out and said with a smile, “Thank you, brother Xia.”

“Haha, I’m looking forward for a pleasant cooperation!”

Xia Ziyu seemed to be happier than Ding Ning with his grin from ear to ear.

Ding Ning refused his invitation to have dinner together and left.

Xia Ziyu sent him to the door with enthusiasm and said, “brother Ding, we are partners from now on. You should hurry up to register a company. After all, there are many companies that do not do business with individuals.”

“I will do it as soon as possible. If you are worried about that, after I register the company, I will re-sign a contract with you in the name of the company.”

Ding Ning said with a smile.

“No, I prefer to directly do business with you. No company has a reputation higher than that of yours. We don’t need to re-sign the contract.”

Xia Ziyu adjusted his glasses and said resolutely.

“It seems that brother Xia has recognized my identity.” Ding Ning shook his head and said with a bitter smile.

“Hahaha, brother Ding, don’t laugh at me. I just inferred that from the relationship between you and Mr. Hu.”

Xia Ziyu did not deny it, but instead laughed out loud like an old fox who had cheated on his wife.

Ding Ning sincerely flattered him, “It’s no wonder that brother Xia can run such a big company.”

“I remember a senior told me that the top investment is not investing in a certain industry, but investing in a promising person. I believe that I will not misjudge you. In the future, we will have plenty of opportunities to do business. Let’s ask Mr. Hu out and have a gathering another day.”

After pleasantries, Xia Ziyu returned to the office with joy, sitting there and grinning from ear to ear.

The secretary failed to hold back her curiosity after hesitating for a long while. She asked, “President Xia, why are you so happy?”

“Haha, I got a big deal today. Our company has received the biggest order ever. I should be happy.”

Xia Ziyu failed to hold back the smile on his face and said in high spirits.

“The biggest order? President Xia, why can’t I understand? Isn’t it an instrument that no one has heard of?”

The secretary stroked her hair with a confused look.

“Sisi, as a businessman, I must take the long view and know how to seize the opportunity. Maybe you consider that I will lose a lot by helping him make the mold for free just in order to sign an exclusive order. But do you know that who the young man is?”

Xia Ziyu asked with a mysterious smile on his face.
