Lin Wen’s question was readily accepted by Wu Lingling without a second thought.
The saying “to get rich, one must build roads first” was a principle even Dongma Kingdom understood. That’s why they were undertaking a massive nationwide highway construction project. Although their entire country was less than half the size of Guanjiang Province, and their national weather forecast could be summarized in a single sentence – today it’s raining nationwide, or tomorrow it’s sunny nationwide.
But they were a country nonetheless, and naturally, there was plenty of opportunity for profit!
Moreover, the twelve nations in the southern part of Dongzhou always advanced and retreated together. If they could secure Dongma Kingdom, then other nations like Dongdan Kingdom and Dongni Kingdom would also fall into place!
At this, Wu Lingling’s face lit up with joy. With a smile gracing her eyes and brows, she unhesitatingly agreed to Lin Wen’s proposal and request.
Those truck-mounted cranes, hoists, excavators, road rollers… all these construction machinery, as long as they had wheels and were vehicles, shouldn’t be a problem for Wang Yu, right?
Wu Lingling mused inwardly. Product categories, mechanical engineering disciplines… these were the kinds of things that gave her a headache and should be left to that idiot Wang Yu to worry about. She, as a woman, only needed to concern herself with making money.
That’s right, that’s exactly it!
“Don’t worry. Although these products don’t exist yet, I can have him develop and design them. Yes, don’t worry, it will be done soon,” Wu Lingling said.
Hearing Wu Lingling’s words, Lin Wen nodded in agreement.
“That’s good. As the saying goes, why bother a second person when the first one can do it? With Wang Yu, such a capable factory director at Jiangyang County Automobile Factory, there definitely won’t be any issues. I will go back and make recommendations to my family. As long as the products are good and the price is fair, nothing else will be a problem.”
“… Han Jun, standing by the side, watched the two of them converse with great enthusiasm, feeling utterly speechless.
One was a shrewd and capable business magnate, and the other was a genius prince with profound knowledge. The problem was, both of them were amateurs in the field of manufacturing!
While these things might seem similar at first glance, the actual differences were immense!
To not speak of anything else, just for these construction machinery, especially heavy industrial products, setting up a production line for each product would require at least tens of millions of funds. It’s not like they could all be hand-crafted, right?
Besides that, there was also the training and cultivation of corresponding workers and skilled technicians, preparation and development of materials and equipment, product manufacturing, public announcement applications, qualification reviews, export qualifications… Han Jun’s head began to ache just thinking about all these steps, let alone actually implementing them.
If it weren’t so troublesome, why would their young factory director, such a capable person, still be dabbling mostly in small household appliances? It was because it was genuinely troublesome!
A large-scale manufacturing factory was not as simple as playing house!
Han Jun wore a bitter smile, looking at Wu Lingling and Lin Wen. One dared to make demands, and the other dared to accept them.
Never mind, never mind. They were both people he couldn’t afford to offend. In the end, it would all be left to the young factory director to handle and decide.
Han Jun thought to himself. Meanwhile, Wu Lingling and Lin Wen had already, with a few words, ironed out the cooperation details.
Their conversation was not at a high volume, nor was it deliberately lowered.
As a result, the onlookers didn’t hear clearly, but those nearby heard everything, such as… Zhao Tao!
“Impossible! The bidding quota for Dongma Kingdom was clearly mine! You’re engaging in under-the-table dealings!”
Zhao Tao suddenly rushed forward like a madman, roaring at Wu Lingling and Lin Wen.
Perhaps it was the feeling of a duck flying away from his grasp that made Zhao Tao exceptionally agitated. He directly pointed at Lin Wen and shouted,
“What kind of insignificant thing are you, you little sprout, to dare to arrogantly claim you can decide Dongma Kingdom’s bidding! I will report this and expose all this unfairness!”
Zhao Tao was frenzied and had begun to speak without restraint.
“Foolish bird!”
Wu Lingling glanced at Zhao Tao and uttered two words softly under her breath.
This guy, while he didn’t know Lin Wen’s identity, hadn’t he just seen Lin Wen deal with that detestable Supervisor Laci as easily as a father disciplining a son? He should have known by his intuition that Lin Wen's identity was extraordinary!
And this guy was still shouting so loudly? Wasn’t he just asking for death?
“What’s going on?”
Because of Zhao Tao’s roar, Wang Yu and Gao Chengshan’s conversation was interrupted. Gao Chengshan frowned slightly, looking at Zhao Tao who was jumping around before him, his expression displeased.
Elder researchers were all like this. When they were finally immersed in academic discussion, they would suddenly be interrupted, naturally making them unhappy.
“Mentor, this is just a small issue. I’ll handle it immediately,” Lin Wen quickly said. He then gestured to his accompanying guards, “Go report to the local exhibition hall’s security team and let the relevant personnel handle it. Also, when we get back, investigate the personnel in charge of bidding domestically and find out who gave this guy the bidding quota.”
“Yes, sir!”
The tall and sturdy guard nodded and immediately followed the orders. Not long after, members of the public security bureau arrived and took Zhao Tao away on the grounds of disturbing public order.
Even as he was being led away, this guy was still in a state of frenzy. In the end, he even started throwing a tantrum on the ground, rolling around and babbling incoherently.
“You, you people who don’t know right from wrong, heaven will punish you! I, Zhao Tao, am the Son of Destiny, protected by gods and buddhas, with the Great Sage Equal to Heaven, Nezha, and the Third Prince by my side, to punish you wicked people…”
Zhao Tao was supported by two public security bureau members, one on each arm, with half his body suspended. He struggled frantically while babbling incoherently.
“This guy… could he have gone mad? Because he couldn’t handle too much shock?”
Everyone watched the now-raving Zhao Tao with expressions of speechlessness. Wu Lingling said to Wang Yu.
“Uh, well, I don’t know about that. But judging by this scene, it seems so?” Wang Yu said with a wry smile. He pondered it for a moment and it did seem possible!
Zhao Tao was the type to have ambitions far exceeding his capabilities. He had enjoyed smooth sailing from a young age, until he encountered him… Hmm? Come to think of it, was he the one who ruined him?
What a sin, what a sin. Indeed, a narrow mind is not good, and anger is detrimental to health!
Wang Yu muttered inwardly, and then, along with Wu Lingling, saw Lin Wen and Gao Chengshan off.
The matter of the VCD cooperation would be personally handled by the old professor Gao Chengshan. Wang Yu only needed to provide all the technical circuit theory support and transfer the research funds.
…
Qinglu Group,
Mu Yuntao, leading a large group of people, addressed Wu Guangping with an arrogant demeanor.
“The delivery deadline is fast approaching. Have you prepared to deliver the goods? If you fail to deliver, you will face a ten-billion-yuan compensation!”
Facing Mu Yuntao’s question, which was filled with malicious intent, Wu Guangping chuckled, his tone peculiar.
“I say, Mu Yuntao, are you sure you want us to deliver the goods now?”
