This night, Qin Chuan and his small team talked for a long, long time.
By the time they finished, it was already past midnight. As it was too late, Qin Chuan decided to stay over at the construction site.
The next morning, Qin Chuan went to work as usual, as if nothing had happened the previous night.
He was sitting in his office, processing some documents, when a knock sounded on the door, followed by the rhythmic sound of high heels approaching.
Qin Chuan looked up and saw Ye Meiyun, dressed in a black uniform, standing gracefully before him.
The office was warm, so everyone was wearing light uniforms.
Qin Chuan looked at the mature sister before him, her uniform stretched taut without a single gap, and asked, "Sister, what's up?"
"Xiao Chuan, I've been thinking a lot these past few days. I feel that although the plan you proposed earlier is risky, if it succeeds, it will advance our electronics factory's development speed by at least two to three years."
Ye Meiyun said.
Qin Chuan raised an eyebrow and put down his pen, his interest piqued, "And then?"
Ye Meiyun bit her lip, seemingly having made an important decision.
"I agree with your idea!"
Qin Chuan stared intently at Ye Meiyun, his gaze unwavering. Eventually, Ye Meiyun couldn't bear it, a blush creeping onto her pretty face, and she let out a rare, girlish sigh, "Why are you staring at me like that?"
"How can you look at a woman like that?"
Qin Chuan stood up, took Ye Meiyun's hand, and they walked over to the sofa to sit down.
"Sister, tell me properly, why did you suddenly change your mind?"
Ye Meiyun looked at Qin Chuan, who was serious before her, and smiled slightly, radiating an astonishing allure.
"What's there to say? I just thought it through and naturally changed my mind!"
"I don't believe that excuse. I'll give you another chance, rephrase your words."
Qin Chuan was clearly not easily fooled and continued to press.
"You're really something. Isn't it good that I agree to your plan?"
Ye Meiyun playfully chided, "Haven't you always wished for someone to keep up with your ideas and completely drive the entire factory forward, cultivating a powerful team that is full of vigor and ready to charge into battle?"
"These past few days, in my free time, I've gone over your ideas several times."
Ye Meiyun began to pour out her heart, revealing all her actions of the past few days.
"Then I compared it with the plan I had previously conceived. I unexpectedly discovered that although your approach is riskier, the rewards are also astonishing."
"If we can succeed, it will at least shorten the development time of the entire Xinhua Electronics Factory by two to three years."
"I once read a sentence in a book!"
Qin Chuan asked, "What sentence?"
"Doing business is actually like life. If you want to live well in the latter half of your life, you have to dare to strive and venture out when you are young."
"Because in a person's life, youth is when one has the most drive and energy."
Ye Meiyun said.
"Once you reach a certain age and have been battered by the world in various ways, that sharpness will gradually dim, all your edges will be smoothed out, and you will become increasingly timid, eventually choosing to give up!"
"Doing business and life experiences are almost the same!"
"The smaller the factory, the more it needs to dare to fight, dare to take risks, think what others cannot, do what others dare not, only then can we make big money! Gain enough honor and reputation."
In her final words, Ye Meiyun spoke with great passion, exuding a completely different aura from her usual self.
In the depths of Qin Chuan's dark obsidian eyes, a peculiar light flickered, and his expression was one of slight surprise.
Ye Meiyun's performance today truly astonished him.
"At worst, we fail and start all over again. Our factory is still so small now; we have the time and ability to start anew after one failure."
At this moment, Ye Meiyun continued.
"I've thought about this for a very, very long time!"
"I feel like I've been tricked by you into this remote corner of a small county, and I've even put in all my own savings. Seeing that I've walked ninety-nine steps out of a hundred, I can't possibly fall at the last hurdle!"
"If that happens, wouldn't I lose even more..."
Qin Chuan looked at the mature sister before him, who was trying hard to overcome her inner reservations to comply with his wishes, and felt an unprecedented surge of emotion.
He couldn't help but grasp Ye Meiyun's two soft and boneless hands and said with utmost sincerity, "Sister Yun, thank you! Thank you for your support!"
"I promise you, we will absolutely not fail!"
Ye Meiyun smiled, her eyes as gentle as water, with an unnamable gleam.
"Xiao Chuan, don't speak so absolutely."
"If we fail this time, then Sister will truly have nothing left. At that time, I'm afraid I'll really have to cling to you and make you take care of me for the rest of my life!"
Qin Chuan patted his chest and guaranteed loudly, "Sister, don't worry! If that time really comes, whatever delicious food there is, I will definitely let you eat it first!"
"Hehe!"
"Hahaha!!"
As soon as the words fell, they looked at each other and couldn't help but burst into laughter.
A few minutes later, Qin Chuan and Ye Meiyun gathered around the office desk to discuss the advertising of the electronic storage cabinets in more detail.
Finally, Xu Ronghua and Li Chunsheng were also called over, as they were also shareholders.
Although it was stipulated at the time that Xu Ronghua and Li Chunsheng would only provide technology and not be involved in any marketing or planning matters beyond technology.
However, times had changed. Three cobblers are better than a Zhuge Liang; more people meant broader ideas.
Upon learning that Ye Meiyun had agreed to Qin Chuan's idea, Xu Ronghua and Li Chunsheng were surprisingly only slightly astonished before quickly regaining their composure.
This instead puzzled Ye Meiyun, who couldn't help but curiously ask, "Why are you all so calm? It feels like I'm the one who can't fit into our little group..."
Xu Ronghua smiled and explained, "Because Old Li and I have already discussed this in private."
"I promised Old Li at the time that within a month, the factory manager would definitely agree to the boss's opinion."
Li Chunsheng added, "In fact, it hasn't even been a week, and the factory manager has already defected and joined the boss's camp."
These words made Ye Meiyun blush furiously, feeling embarrassed and indignant. She picked up a book from the table and was about to throw it down, "In your hearts, am I that indecisive?"
"It's not just you; we're the same."
"Otherwise, how could the three of us big fools be tricked by a certain person into giving up so many big cities and choosing to develop in such a small county."
Xu Ronghua self-deprecatingly said.
"Damn, you make it sound like I'm some kind of heinous villain, kidnapping people."
Qin Chuan's face darkened, listening to them. Was this praise or criticism?
"Exactly, boss, you are a villain who kidnaps people!"
Li Chunsheng, uncharacteristically, also joined in the joke.
Laughter instantly filled the office.
However, a few minutes later, everyone's bright smiles disappeared due to one issue – money!
Where would the money for advertising on CCTV come from?
Where would the money for hiring celebrity endorsements come from?
Ye Meiyun, Xu Ronghua, and Li Chunsheng had agreed to Qin Chuan's plan, but there was a bottom line: Qin Chuan could not touch the money in the electronics factory's account.
At least three million yuan had to be kept as a reserve!
This money was for production and paying workers; it absolutely could not be touched.
This was to leave room for maneuver, so that if the advertising and celebrity endorsements failed, there would be no retreat.
