Chen Yiyang felt quite wronged.
What's wrong with asking the company to cover the cost of a bubble tea?
He's already poured billions into investments.
In the future, if Kuxing's transformation encounters any difficulties, Chen Yiyang will have to inject substantial cash flow.
Besides, it's not just a personal expense for drinking bubble tea; they were actually discussing business.
Although the accountant felt a bit embarrassed, Kuxing's finance department quickly reimbursed the expense without any fuss.
It's probably something they're used to seeing.
In large companies, it's normal for the boss's expenses to be covered by the company.
At least Chen Yiyang didn't have Kuxing buy luxury properties and cars in the company's name, sell them to him at low prices, and then he leases them back to the company, forcing the company to pay him rent monthly.
Compared to these common practices, Chen Yiyang is quite a conscientious boss.
However, Chen Yiyang didn't stay in Ludao City for long before Zhang Yuling asked him to go to the Imperial Capital.
The Mingkuai Typewriter he bought earlier was to be sold to a client of Zhang Yuling's.
Now the client has time to discuss the deal with Chen Yiyang.
So, Chen Yiyang had no choice but to fly to the Imperial Capital.
Upon landing, Zhang Yuling personally came with a driver and a business vehicle to pick up Chen Yiyang.
"I had someone drive the typewriter over from Lin'an; it'll probably take more than a day," Chen Yiyang explained to Zhang Yuling.
"That's not a problem," Zhang Yuling didn't mind and started to introduce the person interested in buying the Mingkuai Typewriter.
It's an old leader from the Guangying Bureau; his hometown is the same place as Lin Yutang, the inventor of the Mingkuai Typewriter. They're from the same village.
Of course, they're from different generations and have never met.
Upon hearing Zhang Yuling's introduction, Chen Yiyang immediately understood that this old leader was trying to get the typewriter for free.
Because the old leader's hometown lacks tourist attractions. Although Lin Yutang is quite famous, his influence remains relatively limited nationwide.
So, even though they built a Lin Yutang Memorial Hall, it didn't attract many tourists.
Now, the local tourism officials heard about the reappearance of the Mingkuai Typewriter.
So they approached the old leader to see if they could get the typewriter for their hometown to create a tourist highlight.
Because of the extremely complex mechanical structure of the Mingkuai Typewriter, if publicly exhibited, it could really attract quite a few tourists and enthusiasts from related fields.
Of course, the old leader also offers something in return for the Mingkuai Typewriter from Chen Yiyang's hands.
The old leader can introduce some connections to Chen Yiyang.
If Chen Yiyang has related needs in the future, he'll have an official channel to reach out to.
Moreover, if Chen Yiyang ever invests in some hard-to-film movies or TV series, he can leverage these connections to understand why things didn't pass the audit.
Overall, what the Mingkuai Typewriter offers Chen Yiyang is somewhat intangible.
But Chen Yiyang doesn't have much use for the typewriter himself, so after careful consideration, he decided to donate it to the Lin Yutang Memorial Hall in the old leader's hometown.
Meanwhile, as Chen Yiyang was handling the typewriter business in the Imperial Capital,
the second episode of the fourth season of "See You Again, Love" finally aired.
Originally focusing on celebrity divorces, this show featured a couple that quickly dominated the show's trending topics in the second episode.
Very soon, this couple was topping trending lists across major social media platforms.
This couple is Ma Ling and Li Liang.
An unknown singer paired with a completely ordinary wife.
Two of the most ordinary people had a distortion in their marriage far surpassing that of other celebrity and influencer couples.
The extent of their relationship twists exceeded everyone's expectations.
After the first episode aired, everyone thought Ma Ling was the pitiful housewife and Li Liang was too absorbed in his work to care for the family.
But come the second episode, people realized Ma Ling was full of lies, and Li Liang was actually the one caring for the family.
Just when everyone thought it was settled, the show continued to reveal that Ma Ling's lack of family care was the smallest of her issues.
As the show continued to air, people soon also found out that Li Liang had significant problems.
The couple is considered a prime example of being forever stuck together.
These two originally unknown individuals created a show effect intense enough to break the internet.
How intense was the show effect?
Even Huang Yuqiu, far away in Luzon, had heard about it and called Chen Yiyang.
"Haha, Little Chen, did you recommend me to advertise on this show after watching all its content beforehand?"
Huang Yuqiu slightly mentioned business, then continued to gossip, "Can you tell me in advance whether Ma Ling and Li Liang finally get divorced?"
"I don't know either; I just heard this season of 'See You Again, Love' had great effects, but didn't expect them to be this great."
After saying that, Chen Yiyang gave Huang Yuqiu the contact info of the director of the show.
"I have given you the contact information of the director Hu Lei from 'See You Again, Love'; why don't you ask him yourself?"
"Okay then." Huang Yuqiu, usually quite refined, showed unexpected curiosity.
After getting the contact, he immediately reached out to Hu Lei himself.
However, through advertising with the show "See You Again, Love 4," the online sales of Huang Yuqiu's Luzon Fruits and Vegetables Factory soared.
It was simply a great profit.
Although the factory spent quite some money advertising on 'See You Again, Love 4' through Chen Yiyang,
compared to the current explosive popularity of 'See You Again, Love 4,' it was extremely cost-effective.
After 'See You Again, Love 4' was broadcast, there were several trending topics a day.
Mainly because the trending topics didn't repeat themselves.
Aside from the main trending couple Ma Ling and Li Liang, the other two couples in the show had continuous topics, frequently showing up in the trends.
Many video bloggers simply made great profits this month by focusing entirely on the show.
And Chen Yiyang's sharp insight, bringing in high-quality advertising sponsors for 'See You Again, Love 4' before its broadcast, began to spread within the community.
From the initial investment in Wandering Earth, to continuous investments in movies and variety shows,
Chen Yiyang's vision started to gain recognition from some people.
Various unknown movies or variety shows sought Chen Yiyang, hoping to secure investments.
Of course, they couldn't contact Chen Yiyang directly, only the staff under his economic company for messages, hoping for a meeting.
But before deciding whether to rely on his own judgment to invest or sponsor projects,
Jiang Yue from 'Old West' came all the way from Shan City to the Imperial Capital to find Chen Yiyang.
"You want to sign Ma Ling?" Chen Yiyang was surprised upon hearing Jiang Yue's proposal.
