Chapter 566 - 408: I Want to Go to Luzhou Science and Technology University! Chen Yansen: Dear Competitor, Don’t Be Afraid, I’m Here

"Jiaoda," Chen Yansen replied succinctly.

"Why?" Wang Ziyan asked curiously.

’Because you went to Jiaoda in your past life!’

Chen Yansen couldn’t be bothered to explain, so he gave a perfunctory reply, "Jiaoda has significant advantages in terms of geographical location, academic atmosphere, and employment opportunities."

"But I want to go to Luzhou Science and Technology University." Wang Ziyan blinked, staring straight at Chen Yansen.

’Luzhou Science and Technology University?’

’Why do you want to be so close to me!’

"Listen to me. I’ve been there, so I know what I’m talking about. You can’t go wrong applying to Jiaoda," Chen Yansen persuaded patiently.

"Brother Jensen, you went to a second-tier university. What kind of experience could you have?" Wang Ziyan smiled slyly, her voice crisp and cheerful, but her words were particularly piercing.

"Then why are you even asking me?" Chen Yansen retorted, narrowing his eyes.

"Bad experience is still experience." The young woman laughed so hard she shook, revealing two rows of fine, pearly teeth.

Chen Yansen glanced at her shaking form and couldn’t help but think, ’She really has grown up.’

Seeing Chen Yansen remain silent, Wang Ziyan asked again, "Do you like the New Year’s gift I gave you?"

"It’s nice. Soft and warm, just a little small," Chen Yansen commented.

"Hold out your hand." Wang Ziyan’s delicate brows furrowed slightly as she whispered the command.

Chen Yansen knew what she wanted to do, so naturally, he refused to cooperate.

"Uncle Chen, Brother Jensen is bullying me." Wang Ziyan turned to tattle.

Chen Yansen was speechless.

’He knew it. The farther he was from Wang Ziyan, the closer he was to happiness.’

’She hasn’t even started university and she’s already learned how to lie through her teeth.’

"Xiaosen," Lao Chen called out, his tone hardening.

Chen Yansen sighed, obediently held out his hand, and let Wang Ziyan grab it to measure against her own palm.

The girl’s palm was warm and smooth. Wang Ziyan’s earlobes quietly began to turn red.

"Alright, come fall, I’ll knit you a new pair of gloves. I guarantee they’ll be the right size."

Wang Ziyan only spoke with a serious expression after taking President Chen’s right hand and stroking it repeatedly.

"Thanks." Chen Yansen pulled his right hand away, then looked at Lao Chen and said, "It’s time for dinner."

"Uncle Chen, are you guys going out for dinner?" Wang Ziyan asked.

"Ziyan, would you like to join us?" Lao Chen asked politely.

"Wouldn’t that be an inconvenience?" Wang Ziyan said, feigning hesitation.

"Nonsense, what’s inconvenient about it? Come on, you can ride in Uncle Chen’s car."

Chen Guobin grinned and took out the keys to his BMW X5.

He had watched Wang Ziyan grow up. To say she was his own daughter would be an exaggeration, but he did think of her as his goddaughter.

’Wait a minute, Lao Chen, did you even ask for my opinion?’

Chen Yansen’s face was a picture of confusion.

But in Lao Chen’s eyes, his opinion was completely unimportant.

’Objection overruled!’

On second thought, Chen Yansen figured it was fine to bring Wang Ziyan along. Otherwise, if it were just him and Lao Chen drinking, the atmosphere would be truly awkward.

When he returned to the hotel, it was already half past ten at night.

As soon as he pushed open the door to his suite, he saw Ye Qiuping dressed in a snake demon cosplay outfit. Holding a tail prop, she said coquettishly, "As you wish, as you wish, by my heart’s command, quickly show your power!"

Chen Yansen’s interest was immediately piqued. He grinned and said, "Demon, give me back my grandpa!"

After speaking, he quickly added, "Wait for me to change, and then we’ll battle for three hundred rounds."

Ye Qiuping giggled. In her eyes, Chen Yansen was sometimes like a child, and other times like a calculating old fox who made her shudder.

The next morning, Chen Yansen, dressed smartly, briefly dealt with Tang Lixin and the others in the top-floor banquet hall.

Aside from the people from the Central Bureau, most of them were partner merchants from Pinbei Mall. It ended up serving as a small merchant conference of sorts.

Chen Yansen spoke, and the others listened.

He was the youngest, but his words carried the most weight.

Two hours later, Chen Yansen saw Tang Lixin and the others off. He then took a car to Chessboard Street, carrying several bags of gifts, to freeload a lunch at Wang Zihao’s house.

At one in the afternoon, after letting Lao Chen know, he set off for Hai Zhou.

...

...

「Jiahaojia Electrical Appliance Factory, Chairman’s Office.」

The factory owner, Wang Jie, saw that the people from Senlian Capital still wouldn’t budge. After weighing his options repeatedly, he gritted his teeth and said, "Manager Dai, I can accept 58 million."

Dai Zhanhong was taken aback. He was just waiting for the big boss, but he hadn’t expected this pleasant surprise. Wang Jie had cut his own price, dropping it by another two million.

He put on a stern face and said, "Jiahaojia is currently on the verge of collapse. With a broken capital chain, the price naturally can’t be on par with a normal acquisition."

Dai Zhanhong was the head of business operations Chen Yansen had poached from Midea. He was originally a technician in Midea’s R&D lab before transferring to a management position. He was a true industry insider and even had a certain talent for sales and negotiation.

With Old Gao’s assistance, he and his team had visited six factories in places like Sujiang and the Jiangsu-Zhejiang region all in one go over three days.

In the end, they set their sights on Jiahaojia!

The factory covered an area of 80,000 square meters. With production lines running at full capacity, its annual output was eight million electric fans and four million mini fans.

Furthermore, the factory complex had idle space, allowing for immediate capacity expansion by adding more production lines.

What excited Dai Zhanhong the most, however, was that Jiahaojia possessed basic motor R&D and production capabilities.

The quality wasn’t high, but it wasn’t bad either.

If they bought it and continuously invested in R&D, Jiahaojia could very well squeeze into the industry’s top tier.

"Manager Dai, 58 million is really as low as I can go. The cost of the factory buildings, production lines, and supporting facilities alone is over 50 million."

Wang Jie said, his face a mask of misery.

Seeing that he couldn’t push the price down any further, Dai Zhanhong decided to come clean.

Wang Jie stood frozen, wanting nothing more than to slap his thigh in regret.
