"Zhou Chen, my uncle asked me to thank you. He said that the company you introduced has reached cooperation with him. Are you free this weekend? He wants to treat you to dinner."
After school, Ji Yangyang, who was walking with Zhou Chen, said to Zhou Chen.
"Oh, is it done? That's good. If it's this weekend, there should be nothing to do."
Zhou Chen was a little surprised. Import and export trade cannot be done casually, especially things related to racing, many of which are controlled products.
Although he introduced Liu Zheng to the boss of his company, he was really just an introduction. If it wasn't profitable, I'm afraid the boss of the company wouldn't agree easily.
"As long as it's okay, let's go to my uncle's place for a few runs on the weekend."
It is rare to meet a friend with the same hobbies among people of the same age. Ji Yangyang is very willing to go racing with Zhou Chen.
"Um."
Not far behind Zhou Chen and the others, Qiao Yingzi and Huang Zhitao were walking arm in arm. Qiao Yingzi, with a red face, told Huang Zhitao what happened at noon today.
"Really? Isn't this too embarrassing?"
Huang Zhitao's face was full of shock. She really couldn't imagine that kind of scene. Even she, the person listening now, felt very embarrassed. How did Zhou Chen and Qiao Yingzi survive at that time?
"It's embarrassing, I feel embarrassed too."
Although several hours have passed, Qiao Yingzi still feels very embarrassed when thinking about it now.
Huang Zhitao blinked her eyes and asked Qiao Yingzi with a smile: "But having said that, apart from being awkward, it is also really romantic. I have been secretly in love with you since the first year of high school. In two years, I even composed a song specifically for you.
Piano music, wow, it’s so romantic and beautiful, I feel so envious and jealous.”
"Is it romantic?" Qiao Yingzi recalled it, and unknowingly, an uncontrollable smile appeared on her lips.
"Isn't it romantic?"
"It seems a bit romantic."
"Yingzi, you have to catch it. Zhou Chen is excellent in other aspects except studying. The most important thing is that he has a crush on you and even composes songs for you. Such a romantic and talented boy is really...
Rare creature."
Qiao Yingzi glanced at Zhou Chen's back secretly, "Is he really that good?"
Huang Zhitao: "I haven't had much contact with him, but based on my brief contact, he should be pretty good."
"How does it compare to your Ji Yangyang?"
"Okay, if you dare to laugh at me, Yingzi, watch me laugh at you."
"Oh, Tao Zi, don't make trouble."
…………
Time flies, and two weeks have passed in the blink of an eye.
During this period of time, Zhou Chen's life was relatively monotonous. Except for weekends, it was basically three o'clock and one line, housing, school and restaurants.
On weekends, Ji Yangyang always went to race cars and play basketball with him. Fang Yifan became much more honest in the past two weeks. He didn't ask anyone to go out to play anymore. He just often sent messages and talked in the group and was very active.
Fang Yifan can account for half of the information in the prestige group.
"You said you want to open a factory to produce masks?"
Song Yuan put down his chopsticks and said to Zhou Chen in surprise: "Your task now is to study hard and take the college entrance examination. You don't have to worry about making money."
Song Yuan rarely had a day off today, so he called Zhou Chen back to have lunch together. During the meal, Zhou Chen mentioned to him that he wanted to open a mask factory.
In fact, Zhou Chen has nothing to do. He is still a student now. Although he is an adult, many things are not convenient for him to do. Moreover, although he is the boss of the trading company, Song Yuan basically goes to check the accounts and manage things regularly. He has no idea at all.
Been there.
If he wanted to open a mask factory, the easiest way would be to acquire one. Otherwise, starting one from scratch would be too time-consuming and labor-intensive, and would not fit in with his plan.
"Uncle, don't worry, the college entrance examination is nothing to me. I will definitely be able to get into the ideal university by then. I just feel that going to school every day is too boring, so I want to open a small mask factory to exercise."
Song Yuan looked at Zhou Chen and said: "Exercise? How old are you? After you graduate, you will have plenty of time to exercise. Now, you'd better study hard and enjoy your student life. Otherwise, in a few years, you won't have the chance to think about it.
Already."
He also graduated from school and knew very well how wonderful the carefree life in school was. Once he left campus, he would never be able to enjoy such a beautiful life again.
For Song Yuan, Zhou Chen is the only person he has a blood relationship with in the world. Although he is an uncle and nephew, he really regards Zhou Chen as his son, but sometimes he is really busy and has no time.
Take Zhou Chen into consideration.
Zhou Chen didn't know what to say. It wasn't his first time in high school, so he knew everything he needed to know.
"I'm not planning to do it myself, I just think this industry has a bright future. Uncle, just think it's me who wants to practice, and I promise not to delay my studies."
Song Yuan frowned. As a lawyer, he is quite serious in front of outsiders, but in front of his nephew, he is not very serious. On the contrary, he is very open-minded.
How much property does Zhou Chen have? As a guardian, he naturally knows very well that such a family does not really need to rely on learning to change their lives.
"Xiaochen, you are an adult now. It is a good thing to have your own ideas, and it is also good to exercise."
After careful consideration, Song Yuan decided not to dampen Zhou Chen's enthusiasm. If he started exercising from now on, it would be helpful to take over the business in the future.
"But can you tell me why you think the mask industry has a future?"
These days, there are many promising industries, but those who can really make money are really only a few among the few. Although he agrees with Zhou Chen to give it a try, he still wants to hear Zhou Chen's thoughts.
It’s a ticket-based thing, but I still really want to do it.
Zhou Chen said: "To be precise, I think safety and health will have great development prospects in the future."
"Although there are still many families in the country who are below the subsistence line, generally speaking, the living standards of Chinese people are gradually improving. In the past, anyone who lived to be over 60 or 70 years old could be considered a long life, but now
, many people in their sixties are still working like middle-aged people, and there are countless elderly people in their seventies and eighties."
"The fact that people can live so long now is related to many aspects, including medical treatment, hygiene, diet, health care, etc. Among them, health and safety are given special attention. In terms of health and safety, masks are definitely indispensable, not to mention all parts of the country.
Hospitals and many factories and companies require masks."
"Also, with the current global climate change, there are more and more colds and infectious diseases, and infectious diseases are also a big problem. In this case, the demand for masks will become larger and larger. Maybe the profits of the mask industry are not too big, but
Our company happens to be engaged in trading, so it is definitely easier to obtain raw materials than others, so if we open a factory, our profits will definitely increase."
"As long as we acquire a mask factory, we can save a lot..."
Zhou Chen is not just hot-headed and just does whatever he thinks, but has already done market research. If he opens the door with his trading company, the profits will definitely be considerable.
But before that, he had to obtain Song Yuan's consent.
It's not that Song Yuan has a say in his family's company, but more importantly, Song Yuan is his most important relative in the world. To do such a thing, out of respect, he must discuss it with Song Yuan.
Song Yuan listened carefully to Zhou Chen's narration, and waited until Zhou Chen finished speaking before he spoke.
"It can be seen that you have really worked hard, but there are still many questions. I will only ask one, channels. Do you have sales channels?"
Zhou Chen said: "As for sales channels, can I use the company's channels?"
Song Yuan: "According to what you said, the raw materials are imported by your company, purchased directly by the factory, and the sales channels are still dependent on the company. Everything is done by the company, so why should you be used?"
When Song Yuan said this, Zhou Chen suddenly felt a little embarrassed. This was the simplest and fastest method he could think of. After all, what else could he do if he had resources?
It's just that Song Yuan really thought that he wanted to exercise, so he said such words, leaving him at a loss as to how to answer.
"You can open a mask factory, and you can use trading companies to buy raw materials, but for other things, you have to figure it out yourself. If you don't understand, you can ask, but the more important thing is to learn. You don't have to rush for time, but in many aspects
You have to do it with your own hands.”
Although Zhou Chen had his own plans, he also knew that Song Yuan was doing it for his own good, so he nodded in agreement.
"I understand, uncle. After a while, I will make a plan first."
"That's okay. After you finish the planning document, send it to me for review. As long as you do well, I will find a way to help you solve some things you can't do."
Song Yuan is a person with real abilities. Although his sister, Zhou Chen’s mother, invested in the original Yuanhang Law Firm, it was just a small firm at the time. It has developed into a large law firm now. Song Yuan relies on
It's just your own ability.
Having been a lawyer for more than ten years, although Song Yuan is not the kind of shopping mall boss, he still has his own opinions on doing business.
"good."
In the evening, Zhou Chen drove back to Shuxiang Yayuan. As soon as he took the elevator to the fourth floor, he saw a figure standing in front of his house, pacing back and forth.
Seeing this person, Zhou Chen showed a joking smile and walked over quietly.
Qiao Yingzi stood at the door of Zhou Chen's house, biting her finger, thinking about whether to knock on the door.
Ever since Zhou Chen admitted his secret crush on her in front of her last time, she had never been to Zhou Chen's house again, and she didn't dare to be alone with Zhou Chen.
But today she really couldn't help it, because her mother was not at home today, and she felt itchy in her heart, missing Zhou Chen's Lego and astronomical telescope.
It's just that she has been struggling here for nearly ten minutes. She has not yet decided whether to knock on the door. She raised her hand several times and finally put it down.
"Beauty, what are you trying to do by blocking my door? Are you lost?"
"ah!"
Qiao Yingzi was silent in her own world when she suddenly heard a sound and jumped up like a hedgehog with explosive hair.
When she saw clearly that it was Zhou Chen, her face suddenly turned red with embarrassment.
"When did you show up? Don't you know that people are scary and can scare people to death?"
Zhou Chen: "I still want to ask you, why are you wandering back and forth in front of my house? How long have you been here? You haven't knocked on the door all the time, right?"
Qiao Yingzi suddenly said awkwardly: "No, I just came, I just came."
Zhou Chen did not expose her, he just said: "You came just in time, I still want to find you, the 8499 you disassembled last time has not been put together yet, and it is still in the living room. I was thinking that if you don't come again, I will
So I threw it away, it was too ugly to pile up there.”
"you dare."
Qiao Yingzi shouted loudly and wanted to throw away the Lego she had built. This was an unforgivable thing, so she instantly forgot her embarrassment and shyness.
Zhou Chen: "Then tell me, why didn't you come over for so long? Is it because of what I said last time?"
"Uh, no, I, I just..." Qiao Yingzi was at a rare loss. She really didn't know how to answer.
"Yingzi, you really don't have to think so much. Secret love is my business alone and has nothing to do with you. We are friends, and I haven't confessed my love to you. We are now in the third year of high school. I will not cause you any trouble at this time.
."
Zhou Chen said truthfully that he did have a crush on the girl Qiao Yingzi, but when it came to love, it really didn't count.
Although the high school romance was beautiful and unforgettable, Zhou Chen was not one of those impulsive young people, and he did not want to delay Qiao Yingzi's studies.
"You have a crush on me, and you say you have nothing to do with me." Qiao Yingzi muttered softly.
"Okay, stop talking. Can you get out of the way first and let me open the door and then go in?"
"Oh well."
Qiao Yingzi quickly walked away and asked Zhou Chen to open the door. After Zhou Chen entered, she hesitated and followed.
"You dare to follow me, aren't you afraid that I will do something to you?"
Zhou Chen looked at Qiao Yingzi who followed him and said with a smile.
When Zhou Chen spoke like this, Qiao Yingzi became less nervous and embarrassed.
"Hey, would I be afraid of you? I am a person who has practiced."
Although he said this, he had seen Zhou Chen's fighting ability. Ji Yangyang and Fang Yifan combined could not beat Zhou Chen.
"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and put together your 8499, and the telescope. I haven't unpacked it yet. You can open it and see how to do it."
This was a birthday gift for Qiao Yingzi. Qiao Yingzi never took it away, and Zhou Chen had no intention of opening it. He was just waiting for Qiao Yingzi to open it.
"Oh, I'll go right away."
Zhou Chen ignored the enthusiastic Qiao Yingzi, but opened his laptop and started working on his own plan.
He has also been a CEO for several years, although at that time he was engaged in real estate and more design.
But his knowledge is extraordinary. Writing a planning document is not a difficult task for him.
It's just that he wants to complete this plan well and at least leave his uncle Song Yuan speechless and fully support him.
Otherwise, it would not be that easy to open a mask factory just by relying on his own strength.
In this way, although Zhou Chen and Qiao Yingzi lived under the same roof, they seemed to have a tacit understanding. No one disturbed the other and each was doing his or her own thing.
After a long time, Zhou Chen stopped and stretched.
The planning document has not been officially started yet. Just now, he was just searching for information and writing down the important contents. Only when he has found almost all the information will he start to formally write the planning document.
More than an hour later, Qiao Yingzi was still playing with Lego seriously. As for the refractor telescope bought by Zhou Chen, she had already set it up and placed it on the balcony.
Zhou Chen smiled slightly. He had seen Qiao Yingzi in this state many times and had long been accustomed to it.
