Chapter 3635: Chapter 3627: No Need to Bring Him Along
"Maybe it’s God helping you, take some time to go to the temple and give thanks."
"Sure, once I’m done with work, I’ll take a trip to the temple."
"What about the branch office, has Gao Feng said anything?"
"He’s been unusually quiet, perhaps because he knows he’s at fault and is afraid of being found out, he’s been very polite to me."
"Mainly because he and Gao Lei have a certain relationship. Unless absolutely necessary, there’s no need to fall out with him, let’s maintain some courtesy." Lin Yi said.
"I think the same, turning a blind eye is best. After all, my dad and she are doing well, and I don’t want to disturb them."
"I’ve met your dad, his spirits are indeed good, but pay more attention to your sister."
"After being lectured by you last time, I’ve noticed a change in her; she’s indeed much more obedient." Chen Yuying said:
"But I can’t stand her friend Zhou Yunxi; if it weren’t for her, she wouldn’t be partying this wildly."
"These things can only be left to nature. Pushing too hard could backfire."
"That’s what I think, too. Take it one step at a time, she’s under my watch, and she can’t cause any serious trouble."
Lin Yi nodded.
He agreed with this statement.
"Where are we going now?"
"Zhongsheng Food Factory."
"Never heard of that brand."
"They mainly do outsourcing; they have all kinds of products with a daily shipment volume of hundreds of tons. Let’s see if we can negotiate something."
"If the volume is that large, they should have established their own logistics system, right?"
"But factories also have rest times and low shipment periods. If they build their own logistics system, after detailed calculations, it’s better to cooperate with a transport company, so I want to give it a try."
"It’s worth trying, but as an outsider, it’s not easy to infiltrate your enemy’s ranks."
"We still have to try, just in case."
Following the address Chen Yuying found, Lin Yi drove over.
The company was on the edge of the Fourth Ring Road, taking over 30 minutes to reach.
The company’s building wasn’t particularly grand, with five floors, but such scale was already considerable.
"Come inside and take a look around, it’s also a good learning experience for you."
"It feels like you’re grooming me for an assistant role."
"I do have that thought because many of your insights are very useful to me."
Chen Yuying looked at Lin Yi, "With those abilities, it’s only natural to nurture them."
"You’re not even giving me a chance to lie down and relax."
"I’m exhausted every day; my heart can’t take seeing you lying around."
"You need to have some perspective."
"Why does a woman like me need perspective? Come on, let’s go."
With no choice, Lin Yi was called out of the car.
He followed Chen Yuying into the company building.
Although the exterior looked a bit old, the interior was nicely renovated.
The ground floor was a lobby.
But a large part of it was used as a display area.
There was the company’s development history and its highlights in the era’s progress.
Lin Yi glanced around and unexpectedly discovered something.
This company was actually invested by his mother-in-law.
"CITIC Group invested in this?"
"Isn’t it surprising?"
"It really is a bit surprising. No wonder the business grew so big, there’s a powerhouse backing them."
"So, as long as we secure this deal, leveraging those connections, we might get more orders."
"That makes sense."
They chatted briefly and then reached the reception desk.
"Hello, I had an appointment with President Zhang over the phone, my surname is Chen."
The person Chen Yuying referred to as President Zhang was Zhang Huadong.
He’s the company’s Deputy General Manager, in charge of logistics and transport.
The receptionist checked her notebook.
She stood up and said:
"Ms. Chen, please follow me."
Led by the receptionist, the three headed to the fifth floor.
Arriving at the Deputy General Manager’s office.
"President Zhang is inside."
"Thank you for your help."
The receptionist left, and Chen Yuying tidied her clothes and knocked on the door.
"Come in."
Hearing the voice inside, Chen Yuying opened the door and entered with Lin Yi.
The office wasn’t big, about twenty square meters.
Inside sat a middle-aged man with a chubby build.
Seeing Chen Yuying come in, he extinguished the cigarette in his hand.
He then stood up, extending his hand.
"Hello, President Chen."
"Hello, President Zhang."
After coming in, they took their seats.
They glanced around and found nothing noteworthy.
Meanwhile, the two started talking.
"President Zhang, we’ve come this time to discuss cooperation. If we establish our own logistics system, we’d only break even during peak times. Calculating it out, it’s actually more practical to partner with a transport company."
"I understand that logic. Several other transport companies have discussed this with me as well. I want to find a few more companies, compare your respective advantages, and then choose one for partnership."
Hearing this from Zhang Huadong, Chen Yuying saw a glimmer of hope.
"We’re all in the same industry, so there’s no point in undercutting each other. I’ll only speak of our company’s advantages: efficient and punctual services, with prices considered the lowest in the industry. I hope President Zhang can give us a chance to collaborate."
"That’s not convincing. Everyone who comes says their company is efficient, safe, and punctual. Who should I trust?"
Clearly, Chen Yuying anticipated such a response.
She took a stack of documents from her bag.
And pushed it in front of Zhang Huadong.
"These are our company’s operating documents from recent years. You can check them. Price-wise, it’s calculated at 480 per ton, the lowest in the industry. If there’s a lower price, I doubt their reliability could surpass ours."
Looking through the documents handed by Chen Yuying, Zhang Huadong sat cross-legged, examining them for a while.
"Looks quite good. I’ll keep the documents and review them later."
"Alright, I’ll wait for President Zhang’s notice."
Zhang Huadong nodded, then looked at the time on his watch.
"It’s almost noon. How about having a meal together? I’ll introduce you to some colleagues, maybe you could expand your business."
Chen Yuying’s face lit up with joy.
This rare opportunity couldn’t be missed.
"Thank you, President Zhang, for the opportunity."
"It’s a small matter."
Chen Yuying signaled to Lin Yi and went out with the others.
Zhang Huadong turned and glanced at Lin Yi.
"Is he your assistant?"
"Yes, assistant and driver."
"No need to bring him along. I’ll call for a driver to take the two of us."
"That wouldn’t be right; after all, he came with me." Chen Yuying said hesitantly.
"He’s just a worker, what’s the issue? Let him find somewhere to wait."
