Chapter 1504 Chen Shan: President Jiang, shall we have dinner together?
"Attorney Chen," Jiang Chen greeted him with a smile.

On May 14th, Jiang Chen discussed Xingchen Glass's listing on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange with Chen Shan, who had been preparing for the listing for the past few months. Today, Xingchen Glass has finally gone public.

"President Jiang, congratulations!" Chen Shan said with a smile.

"Congratulations to you both. Xingchen Glass's successful listing is also thanks to Attorney Chen," Jiang Chen said.

"President Jiang, you're too kind."

Jiang Chen exchanged pleasantries with Chen Shan for a few moments, and then chatted with the others.

In particular, most of the senior executives and minority shareholders of Xingchen Glass were meeting Jiang Chen for the first time.

This trip was specifically for the purpose of meeting.

This time, Xingchen Group offered 30% of Xingchen Glass's shares, with 5% going to Xingchen Glass's senior management and the remaining 25% to minority shareholders.

Soon, it was time for Xingchen Glass to be launched.

Miao Yushang led his men up to ring the bell.

Star Glass opened at HK$45, a 50% increase.

"Okay."

Jiang Chen was very happy to see the price.

This is a good start.

In the evening, Jiang Chen, Miao Yushang, Chen Shan and others arrived at the Shangri-La Hotel.

"Good afternoon, everyone! Today we gather at the magnificent Shangri-La Hotel, a beautiful and scenic seaside location, for this appreciation reception. On behalf of all my colleagues at Xingchen Glass, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks and warm welcome to all of you. Time flies, but Xingchen Glass has always been dedicated to serving our customers with utmost sincerity. We hope our sincerity will accompany you and warm your life..." Jiang Chen delivered his congratulatory speech as the listed company on stage.

After Jiang Chen delivered his speech, Miao Yushang took the stage to host the celebration banquet.

"Attorney Chen, let me toast you," Jiang Chen said, picking up his glass to Chen Shan.

"Mr. Jiang, please." Chen Shan picked up her wine glass, clinked it with Jiang Chen's, and then drank it all in one gulp.

"Cheers." Jiang Chen drank a glass of wine and then went to find the others.

This celebratory banquet with senior executives of Xingchen Glass also provided an opportunity to learn more about them.

After the celebration banquet, Chen Shan found Jiang Chen.

"President Jiang, I'd like to talk to you about the listing of Baisai Group," Chen Shan said.

"Okay, shall we find a place?" Jiang Chen said.

“Mr. Jiang, I’m staying at the Shangri-La Hotel. You can come up with me.” Chen Shan said.

"Is this appropriate?" Jiang Chen asked.

"It's still early, there's nothing inappropriate about it," Chen Shan said nonchalantly.

"Okay, then lead the way." Chen Shan didn't care, and neither would Jiang Chen.

A moment later, Jiang Chen followed Chen Shan to a luxurious business standard room.

This standard room is approximately 45 square meters and is equipped with a separate shower, bathtub, and Shangri-La-specific toiletries. It offers city views.

"Attorney Chen, you've booked a nice room," Jiang Chen said after looking it over.

“President Jiang, you must be staying in the presidential suite, which is far beyond what I can compare to,” Chen Shan said.

“I own a house in Hong Kong.” Jiang Chen sat down on the sofa.

“That’s true. For President Jiang, buying a house is a small matter.” Chen Shan made coffee for Jiang Chen.

“In the future, Attorney Chen will also be able to buy the house he wants.” Jiang Chen took a sip of coffee and then said, “Attorney Chen, let’s sit down and talk slowly.”

"Okay." Chen Shan sat down opposite Jiang Chen.

“Attorney Chen, let’s talk about the Baisai Group now,” Jiang Chen said.

Besides Xingchen Apparel, Xingchen Group also owns other apparel companies such as Baisai Group and Simeiqi Group. Baisai Group is the largest in scale and has the highest market value.

According to Jiang Chen's plan, Baisai Group will be the third listed company under Xingchen Group this year.

When Jiang Chen talked to Chen Shan about Xingchen Glass's IPO last time, he also discussed pushing Baisai Group to go public.

“Okay.” Chen Shan nodded and started chatting with Jiang Chen.

Because Baisai Group is going to be listed in the United States, Chen Shan mentioned last time that she was contacting Morgan Stanley for cooperation.

Therefore, Chen Shan is now mainly talking about her contact with Morgan Stanley and the preparations for the listing of Baisai Group.

Finally, Chen Shan said, "President Jiang, if time is on your side, Baisai Group can be listed in the United States by October at the latest. Well, if there isn't enough time, it can be listed in the United States by November at the latest."

"Yes, there's no rush. As long as we can go public this year, nothing else matters." Jiang Chen nodded slightly.

"Mr. Jiang, from what you're saying, you have many more companies going public next year?" Chen Shan asked.

“That’s right.” Jiang Chen nodded and said, “Attorney Chen, as you know, I have quite a few subsidiaries, and these subsidiaries are all doing very well and are all eligible for listing.”

"That's true." Chen Shan nodded.

She collaborated with the Star Group, so naturally she had investigated the Star Group's situation.

"Attorney Chen, how well do you understand the relevant laws regarding Baisai Group's listing in the United States?" Jiang Chen asked.

“I already know most of it,” Chen Shan said.

"Really? Then let's talk?" Jiang Chen said.

"Let's talk about relevant laws and regulations?" Chen Shan looked at Jiang Chen with some surprise.

“Yes, after all, I am quite knowledgeable about the law,” Jiang Chen said.

“I know that President Jiang’s Xingchen Group has a law firm under its umbrella, but…” Chen Shan didn’t finish her sentence, but the meaning was clear.

“Attorney Chen, to be honest, I am actually a professor at the Law School of Yenching University,” Jiang Chen said.

"A professor at the Law School of Yenching University?" Chen Shan looked at Jiang Chen in shock, her eyes filled with disbelief.

"Correct."

Jiang Chen nodded: "However, I'm not very familiar with those US securities laws, so I'd like to discuss them with you."

Jiang Chen is well-versed in law.

They are proficient in both mainland China and overseas.

The reason I'm saying this now is because I want to have a chat with Chen Shan.

"Okay." Chen Shan did not refuse.

Jiang Chen and Chen Shan started chatting.

The United States has two types of securities laws: state securities laws and federal securities laws.

In 1911, Kansas enacted a law regulating securities. This law required all securities issuers and salespeople to register with the relevant government department, and stipulated that, with a few exceptions, no securities could be sold without a license. In the following two years, 23 states enacted securities regulations, 17 of which modeled their laws after Kansas's.

That's what Jiang Chen and Chen Shan were talking about.

Time passed by unnoticed as the two chatted.

until.

"Goo!"

There was a soft sound.

"Hungry?" Jiang Chen's gaze fell on Chen Shan's stomach.

"President Jiang..." Chen Shan said somewhat embarrassed.

"How about we get something to eat?" Jiang Chen suggested.

"I'll have the hotel send it over right away," Chen Shan said.

"Eat here?" Jiang Chen was slightly taken aback. He thought they were going to a restaurant or a late-night snack shop.

“Yes, if Mr. Jiang doesn’t mind.” Chen Shan didn’t have as many thoughts as Jiang Chen, and asked after hearing Jiang Chen’s words.

Of course, Chen Shan said this because she wanted to continue talking to Jiang Chen.

After all, she hadn't had such a pleasant conversation with someone in her field in a long time.

"I don't mind," Jiang Chen said.

Soon, the waiter brought the food and drinks.

“At the previous celebration banquet, we only drank alcohol and didn’t eat much food. I’m hungry now.” Jiang Chen sat down at the table.

"I thought Mr. Jiang wasn't very hungry." Chen Shan poured Jiang Chen a glass of wine.

"I was just trying to stop my stomach from growling," Jiang Chen said with a smile.

"President Jiang," Chen Shan said, feeling somewhat embarrassed.

"Come on, let's have a drink." Jiang Chen picked up his glass.

"Okay." Chen Shan did not refuse.

After drinking, Jiang Chen and Chen Shan started eating.

After all, they were just trying to fill their stomachs.

Of course, the chat continued.

Even Jiang Chen was quite interested after chatting for so long.

However, the time for late-night snacks passed quickly.

"Attorney Chen, it's getting late, I'll head back now," Jiang Chen said to Chen Shan after putting down his chopsticks.

"Mr. Jiang, let me see you off," Chen Shan said.

Jiang Chen didn't refuse. Instead, as he walked towards the door, he said, "Attorney Chen, when we get back to Shanghai, I'll treat you to a big meal." "Okay, I'll be waiting," Chen Shan replied.

"Attorney Chen, you should get some rest," Jiang Chen said to Chen Shan after opening the door.

"Take care, Mr. Jiang," Chen Shan said.

Jiang Chen nodded, then left with a flourish.

Well, what Jiang Chen really wanted to do was stay in Chen Shan's room. Unfortunately, his relationship with Chen Shan was currently limited to being collaborators, or friends, but not strictly speaking. So, unless he got Chen Shan drunk and did *that*, but she wasn't that kind of person.

……

The next day, Aotang Group.

"Mr. Zhuo, it's been a long time," Jiang Chen said to Zhuo Dingyao.

"President Jiang, what brings you here?" Zhuo Dingyao asked.

"Naturally, I came to see President Zhuo and also to discuss our cooperation," Jiang Chen said.

"A collaboration? What kind of collaboration?" Zhuo Dingyao asked.

"Naturally, it's about the Singapore mining area that President Zhuo mentioned before. President Zhuo, you haven't forgotten, have you? You were the one who brought it up." After attending Zhen Xin's wedding, Zhuo Dingyao had mentioned the Singapore mining area to Jiang Chen.

"President Jiang has decided to cooperate with me?" Zhuo Dingyao asked.

"Hmm." Jiang Chen sat down opposite Zhuo Dingyao. "I'd like to confirm this with President Zhuo today."

"Then let's discuss it." Zhuo Dingyao took out a document and handed it to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen glanced at it, then discussed it with Zhuo Dingyao.

A quarter of an hour later.

"Mr. Zhuo, it's a pleasure doing business with you." Jiang Chen extended his hand.

"It's a pleasure to cooperate with you." Zhuo Dingyao and Jiang Chen shook hands.

However, after shaking hands with Zhuo Dingyao, Jiang Chen did not let go, but instead played with the object.

"President Jiang, please have some self-respect." Zhuo Dingyao's face turned cold.

“Mr. Zhuo, we’re already so familiar with each other, isn’t it unfair of you to reject me like this?” Jiang Chen said, looking at Zhuo Dingyao.

“We are just business partners,” Zhuo Dingyao said.

"So what?" Jiang Chen smiled faintly and said, "Besides, since it's a cooperative relationship, President Zhuo has to satisfy me first."

“You…” Zhuo Dingyao stared at Jiang Chen.

"Alright, I'm not kidding anymore." Jiang Chen smiled, then took out a wooden box: "President Zhuo, this is a gift for you."

"Thanks." Zhuo Dingyao did not refuse.

"Mr. Zhuo, I wonder if Aotian Group has any mineral resources in South America?" Jiang Chen asked.

"South America? Mr. Jiang, why are you asking about that?" Zhuo Dingyao asked.

"What for? To develop industries in South America, of course," Jiang Chen said calmly.

“Our company has no related industries in South America,” Zhuo Dingyao replied.

"Really? That's a real shame." Jiang Chen's eyes flickered.

According to Jiang Chen's investigation, Aotian Group has quite a few businesses in South America, and these businesses were developed by Zhuo Dingyao. Unexpectedly, Zhuo Dingyao now claims that he has no businesses in South America.

This clearly shows that Zhuo Dingyao doesn't believe him.

A moment later, Jiang Chen left Zhuo Dingyao's office.

"Go investigate something for me."

After Jiang Chen left, Zhuo Dingyao made a phone call.

……

On the other side, Jiang Chen walked towards the parking lot after arriving at Aotian Group.

"Sir, would you like to buy insurance?"

Just as Jiang Chen was about to get into the car, a voice came from the side.

"Ok?"

Jiang Chen turned his head to look.

next moment.

A beautiful figure came into Jiang Chen's line of sight.

Almost simultaneously, a system notification sounded.

"Sign in."

Jiang Chen silently recited in his heart.

[Congratulations, host! You have successfully checked in and received a high-grade low-level spirit field transformation map.]

[Congratulations, host! You have checked in with 1,640 female protagonists consecutively. Rewards include 10 attribute points, a 100-cubic-meter expansion of your spatial ring, 100 mid-grade spirit stones, and 10 ten-thousand-year-old Vermilion Fruits.]

"A high-grade low-level spirit field transformation plan?"

"This is the ninth time I've checked in."

The Low-Grade Spirit Field Transformation Plan transforms existing land into Low-Grade Spirit Fields, with a total of ten acres of Low-Grade Spirit Fields that can be transformed.

The intermediate-grade low-grade spirit field transformation map is an upgraded version of the low-grade low-grade spirit field transformation map, and can transform one hundred acres of low-grade spirit fields.

The advanced low-grade spirit field transformation map is an upgraded version of the intermediate low-grade spirit field transformation map, and can transform 1,000 acres of low-grade spirit fields.

"This sign-in reward is pretty good."

"From Ruan Liuzheng, Tanya, Cheng Anxin, Chen Yingying, Li Ping, You Ya, Gu Shiyi, Zhong Huaishuang, Zhuo Huiyun, to Qian Liyuan now, we've signed on to ten more leading actresses without even realizing it."

"10 attribute points, and the space ring is expanded by 100 cubic meters. These are the most basic special rewards."

"One hundred mid-grade spirit stones?"

"This is the fifth time I've checked in and received one hundred mid-grade spirit stones."

"After refining a low-grade spirit stone, strength increases by 10 points, constitution increases by 15 points, and agility increases by 5 points. After refining a mid-grade spirit stone, strength increases by 130 points, constitution increases by 180 points, and agility increases by 60 points."

"Ten Vermilion Fruits of Ten Thousand Years?"

"This is the eighth time I've checked in and received ten Eternal Vermilion Fruits."

"This sign-in reward is pretty good."

"The existence of the Ten Thousand Year Vermilion Fruit is a rare treasure that allows martial artists at the Martial King Realm to quickly advance to the Martial Emperor Realm. After refining the Ten Thousand Year Vermilion Fruit, one's strength increases by 314, physique by 283, mental strength by 70, and agility by 180. It will be a unique treasure for the Jiang family in the future."

"If everyone signs in a few more times, then everyone can take it."

"This sign-in reward is pretty good."

At that moment, Jiang Chen looked at the female lead who had signed in.

Qian Liyuan, a character in "Those I Loved".

In the drama, she plays a high-ranking executive at an insurance company. Ambitious, goal-oriented, forthright, and bold in love and action, Li Yuan is both Le Wen's boss and Shu Wen's longtime friend. Accustomed to Shu Wen's princess-like personality, though sharp-tongued and unforgiving towards others, she is exceptionally accommodating and caring towards Shu Wen, demonstrating her strong sense of loyalty. Li Yuan has a philosophical view on relationships; being financially independent, she doesn't need to rely on men and doesn't aspire to a family, content with occasional romantic encounters to spice up her life.

"The story of 'Those I Loved' begins in 19."

"Qian Liyuan..."

In the drama, Qian Liyuan is a mutual friend of the Fang sisters, Fang Lewen and Fang Shuwen, and also the catalyst for their reconciliation. If it weren't for her mediation, the two Fang sisters would have remained enemies for who knows how long.

As Fang Lewen's boss, she took good care of Fang Lewen; and as Fang Shuwen's classmate and best friend, she often acted as Fang Shuwen's "nanny." Anyone with a good friend like Qian Liyuan would be very lucky. Of course, the Fang sisters also genuinely cared for Qian Liyuan, treating her like family. It can be said that the relationship between Qian Liyuan and the Fang sisters is truly enviable, especially her close friendship with Fang Shuwen.

"Qian Liyuan?"

Why is he selling insurance?

Jiang Chen found Qian Liyuan very strange.

After all, even though the story hasn't started yet, Qian Liyuan has at least been a middle-level manager at the insurance company for many years, even if she's not a senior executive now.

"Are you talking to me?" Although the situation of Qian Liyuan in the drama flashed through his mind, Jiang Chen's reaction was not slow.

"Yes, sir, I am Qian Liyuan, the business director of Ruiyi Insurance Company," Qian Liyuan introduced herself.

"Are you the business director? If so, why are you here selling insurance?" Jiang Chen asked directly.

"Sir, I just saw you enter the Aotang Group..." Qian Liyuan didn't finish her sentence, but the meaning was clear.

"Miss Qian has good taste." Jiang Chen glanced at Qian Liyuan and said, "However, I'm not buying insurance."

"Sir, you can consider it..."

Before Qian Liyuan could finish speaking, Jiang Chen interrupted her: "Miss Qian, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now."

"Sir, this is my business card. Please call me if you need anything." Qian Liyuan handed a business card to Jiang Chen.

"Okay." Jiang Chen handed over the business card and drove away.

A moment later, Jiang Chen arrived at Double P. Cosmetics Company.

"Miss Lei," Jiang Chen sat down opposite Lei Zitong and asked, "It's been a while since we last met. You're still as charming as ever."

Lei Zitong is the female lead in "Falling in Love with You as a Child," the president of Double P. Cosmetics Company.

"President Jiang, congratulations on Xingchen Glass's successful IPO," Lei Zitong said.

"I didn't expect Miss Lei to be so interested in Xingchen Group." Jiang Chen pulled out his office chair and sat down.

"Mr. Jiang, what brings you here?" Lei Zitong asked after having her secretary serve Jiang Chen coffee.

"Can't I come to see you if there's nothing wrong?" Jiang Chen smiled and said, "However, I really do have something to discuss with Miss Lei today."
