Rebirth 07: Start adding points from elementary school students

Chapter 537 I'm Driving

"Boss Li, you're finally back!"

After Sun Miao received the news that Li Yan had returned to the office, he was the first to knock on the door.

"What's the matter?"

"I have a lot of things to report to you, but I'm afraid to disturb you."

"If there's something urgent, I'd have called earlier." Li Yan said with a smile, "Go ahead."

What Sun Miao reported were indeed decision-making matters. It was right to let Li Yan make the final arrangement, but Li Yan was not planning to spend too much energy on it in the future.

After listening to the seventeen-minute report on various matters, Li Yan was silent for more than ten seconds.

During this period, Sun Miao felt every second was like a year.

"Sun Miao, you have to trust your own decisions on these matters."

Sun Miao was stunned and felt that his glasses had fallen forward a little.

"Mr. Li, are you...are you dissatisfied with my decision?"

Li Yan shook her head helplessly. "You guy, every time I want to give you some responsibility, you become completely cowardly. Can you be a little more ambitious? You are the first minister, the most experienced, and the most senior."

Sun Miao looked at a loss.

"It's impossible for me to check and confirm so many things one by one. Brother Miao, you are also watching Future Technology being built. You should take the responsibility for any decisions that need to be made." Li Yan said.

"Boss Li, are you...are you planning to train a successor?"

The strange thing is that Sun Miao should have been extremely happy and nervous when he said this, but now he just felt nervous.

"That's not the case. I just want you to relax a little and do your work properly. You don't have to ask me everything."

Sun Miao let out a long sigh, "That's fine, I thought you were going to give up on us."

Li Yan was helpless.

"Don't think too much. The foundation I laid for future technology is enough for you to build. It's not easy to sink this ship." Li Yan smiled, "At the critical moment of steering, I will still keep it steady."

"Boss Li," Sun Miao suddenly said in a rare low voice, "You are more than just a boss to Future Technology and us. If I could choose, I don't want to be a successor. I just want to follow you and keep working."

Wow, such rare sincerity.

Li Yan raised her head and glanced at Sun Miao.

"Mr. Li, do you have faith?"

An unexpected question.

“Atheist.”

"I do, and so do many people at Future Technology."

After Sun Miao left, Li Yan stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window with a cup of coffee and looked at the scenery for a long time.

His powerful memory helped him quickly review every face he had known and had contact with in past and present lives.

The "sense of existence" that was once needed most is now overflowing.

His biggest dream was to influence the present and future generations of human beings through his own creations.

Maybe if I can give some enlightenment to a small group of people, then my life will not be in vain.

What now?
It is no longer a butterfly effect, but a Kunpeng spreading wings effect.

He, Li Yan, is no longer just an individual.

Every move, even a thought, can affect many people.

He is the dream of countless people, the top benchmark for students, the infatuation of young girls, the goal of geniuses, and the faith of his subordinates.

I am nineteen years old this year. My life has come to this point. What more can I ask for?
Li Yan took a sip of coffee and recalled the content of the secret meeting.

The two talked a lot, both formally and informally, but the most important thing was to make Li Yan clear about three things.

First, Dengta was eyeing Li Yan covetously, wanting to take Li Yan for himself, and was prepared to destroy him if he couldn't get her.

Having you is important, but it is more important for others not to have you.

It's like some fucking yandere romance literature.

However, the leader also promised Li Yan that in China, with the strong protection of the National Security Bureau, it would be extremely difficult to do anything bad to Li Yan - but Li Yan couldn't be too high-profile, so...

"Be a little bit wronged."

The second is the national-level major plan for new energy vehicles.

The direction is to prepare to expand rapidly with the whole country's strength and at the same time seize the international market. It can be said to be a huge cake that has been designated by the emperor.

The country is currently determined to support future technology and provide sufficient power for future technology to take the lead.

Li Yan was not too surprised by this. He currently had R&D capabilities, and the increasingly obvious effect of improving the industrial level of the whole society, as well as the wonderful metaphysical bonus in the eyes of the leaders - the so-called miracle creation, the so-called luck - and the recognition of the Future Technology brand abroad, etc.

All things considered, Li Yan can even be said to be the most suitable candidate.

Third, Li Yan possesses "unique united front value."

Li Yan has become a totem figure in the business world, especially in places like overseas Chinese and Chinatown. "Li Yan" has become an image, posted on doorways and even on shrines.

In fact, only the first two points are key, and the third point is only mentioned by the leader during casual chat.

But this was really too much, and Li Yan was deeply impressed.

This happens to echo what Sun Miao said today about "faith".

"Mr. Li, are you looking for me?" Tan Mo walked into the office in high heels.

"International business work is now yours too."

"That's right, Mr. Li."

"I heard that some business circles in some places would... involve me?" Li Yan didn't know where to start. He couldn't just ask "Are they offering sacrifices to me?"

"More than that," Tan Mo laughed so hard that his whole body trembled, "As far as I know, many of our partner companies have posted your photos in their offices."

Seeing Li Yan's surprised expression, Tan Mo put away his smile and said, "Mr. Li...you don't know?"

"I really don't know. I haven't learned much about it."

"They are quite interesting. As far as I know, some of them even burn incense."

This is not interesting at all...

"There are also amulets with your photo inside. In a country in the south of us, when we are in class, some schools will put your portrait next to the blackboard..."

Although he had fantasized about this kind of thing in his previous life and felt that it would be awesome, when it really came to the point where others used him as a totem, Li Yan felt very subtle.

Even thinking about it more deeply, it seems a bit dangerous...

The more I think about it, the more I feel that the big boss specifically mentioned this matter, and he must have some other ideas.

"So you don't know about the right to use your name?"

What kind of mess is this? Li Yan answered Tan Mo's question with a puzzled look.

Then he got a story about how the brand "Li Yan" spread wildly in Southeast Asia, and then the major chambers of commerce that regarded Li Yan as a beacon intervened strongly, so that no one dared to use "Li Yan" or even any of the characters in it as a trademark...

"I was used as a weapon." Li Yan smiled and shook his head. "The ones who are doing this are mainly overseas Chinese chambers of commerce, right?"

"Yes." Tan Mo nodded, "Especially the Lincheng Chamber of Commerce."

Li Yan clenched the cup in her hand tightly.

Oh my god, it turns out that my own family believes in it the most?
It is understandable. There is a saying in Rincheng, "If you go out, you are a dragon, if you stay, you are a worm."

Although Lincheng is a third-tier small city with very poor development, "Lincheng people" are a completely different concept.

There are many people from Lincheng who have worked hard and achieved great success outside, and there are rows and rows of business celebrities. Now with the addition of Li Yan, other people's stereotypes about people from Lincheng have been further aggravated.

But Lincheng is a place that places great emphasis on worshipping gods, and the worship is very diverse.

As long as someone can bless you, you can worship them. Buddhism and Taoism are all one family. If someone is a god, he can take the seat. After worshipping your ancestors, you can worship the gods.

Even if it is a Western God, as long as you are willing to bless me, you can worship him.

The so-called fusion of Eastern and Western cultures, a glass of wine to Jesus.

Therefore, they are not opposed to worshipping living people as long as they sincerely believe that this person can bring good luck.

It seems that I have to find an opportunity to go back home.

If nothing else, how could you miss this experience?
Even if it is so embarrassing that my toes touch the ground, I will still carve out a magnificent castle.

"Mr. Li, can I ask you a question?" Oh, we're chatting now?

Li Yan knew that Tan Mo was interested in him, but he didn't expect that he was also a bold and straightforward player. It was a pity that he came at the wrong time.

"Just ask."

"You...what is your relationship with Wei Yunzhi?"

It was a completely unexpected question, but Li Yan immediately thought of Wei Yun’s visit to get information two days ago.

"Have you seen it?"

"Yes."

"A romantic relationship."

"..." Tan Mo's eyes changed rapidly, and it took a while for him to return to normal, "Then she is really lucky."

"I am also very lucky."

After Li Yan finished speaking, she clearly saw Tan Mo shattered.

It's like the outer shell is intact, but the inside suddenly collapses.

To put it more clearly, this sexy and hot beauty's body didn't even shake when she took the first few steps out of the office door.

Li Yan was puzzled.

Did Tan Mo sincerely believe that she had a chance to complete the strategy?

From that day on, Tan Mo would carry a stainless steel wine bottle in his pocket every day when he went to work. He would take a few sips during lunch break, and drink it all in one gulp when he worked overtime.

In fact, there were times when Tan Mo felt that she was being too pretentious and self-righteous, until she saw Wei Yunzhi being given a bag of snacks as she passed through the corridor, until she saw Wei Yunzhi discussing issues with Li Yan in the office, until the word "Da Long" was awakened again.

Only then did she realize that the word "pain" that was annotated with reluctance could only be erased with alcohol.

It was almost mid-July, and Wei Yunzhi's final essay successfully ended her freshman year with the highest score. But in the eyes of many people, her greatest success was Li Yan, who was waiting for her at the gate when she left school for the holiday.

"How else can I say that she can be Li Yan's girlfriend? Yunzhi is too dazzling."

"You have a boyfriend like Li Yan, and you shine too."

"Does it matter whether it's shiny or not? When we go home on holiday, we use the car operated by Li Yan to take a taxi. When she is on holiday, Li Yan personally drives a Lamborghini to pick her up. You'll die if you compare yourself to others."

"He's the only one who can crush a luxury car by standing next to it."

"Nonsense, among those CEOs with a net worth of hundreds of billions, which one doesn't need a luxury car worth tens of millions?"

"You can't spend 10 billion on food and drink in your lifetime, and you're talking about 100 billion. You want a handsome guy. Those rich guys are potbellied and bald. If I were to choose, I'd rather have a young man worth tens of millions."

"Here comes my car, a Volkswagen, with a middle-aged male driver, and a business worth more than ten yuan. Alas, the more I talk about it, the more painful it is. I won't mention it anymore, sisters."

"After all, we are driving on the same road as him!"

"You have a really good attitude..."

Li Yan listened to all the chatter.

For this group of girls, the rich men with millions of dollars in assets have become options that are "not as good as" them.

But there's nothing much to say. There's nothing many boys in junior high and high school who haven't been picky about female stars and complained about this and that.

There is no youth without fantasy.

Wei Yunzhi got into the car holding the certificate and bouquet, her smile as bright as the sun.

"Yan, I'm on vacation!"

"Should I take you out for a nice meal, or should I take you for a drive first?"

"I want to eat the food you cook."

"Then go home!"

"Yeah! Wait, which house?"

"Huajiang No. 1. Just take it for a ride on the way back."

"Look at my certificate first!" The beautiful girl showed the certificate on her chest to Li Yan, but Li Yan's eyes were inevitably attracted by other scenery.

"Well, that's good. You really take this final assignment seriously?" Li Yan started the car and the sound wave was so strong that it could knock people to the ground.

"Well, I'm thinking about trying hard to produce some results and see if I can pass Teacher Li's test."

Li Yan drove out of the intersection and there were exclamations from all around.

"Hmm? Do you also want to apply for the Life Science Research Fund?"

"Yes."

"Do you still need this?" Li Yan smiled, "I'll give you as much as you want."

"No, Yan." Wei Yunzhi said seriously, "I hope you can review it carefully according to the same standards."

As she spoke, the girl placed her hand directly on Li Yan's thigh.

Wow, this is so inconsistent!
"I'm driving, Yunzhi."

"Hmm?" Wei Yunzhi tilted his head, indicating that he didn't understand the relationship between the previous and the next.

"your hands……"

"Ah, are you ticklish?" The little beauty withdrew her hand.

“I get distracted easily.”

After being stunned for two seconds, the girl with an innocent and puzzled face slowly smiled as if she suddenly realized something, and soon started to laugh.

"I think," Li Yan said seriously, "both of us seem to be a little affected by hormones recently?"

The girl immediately stopped smiling and said, "So do you think we should be bolder?"

“…I’m an adult now.”

"Yes."

"Then...it can't be here, right?"

As expected, Wei Yunzhi's face turned red again. "Of course, it can't be here... Although I think it's all right, I still hope it's a little more, um, romantic, or more formal? No, anyway, it's the first time after all..."

"I'm driving, Yunzhi."

"Okay." The girl took a deep breath, "Let's get back to the research."

"You usually hear some rumors, right?"

"Hmm? What did you say?"

"It's about your grades."

"Oh..." Wei Yunzhi nodded, and suddenly started to show off, imitating the tone of the group of girls that Li Yan had just seen, "You have a boyfriend like Li Yan, so you shine too~"

Li Yan chuckled, "Will you be sad?"

"No." Wei Yunzhi shook his head. "What they said is right. Whoever can get together with you will shine."

Li Yan frowned slightly.

"But who says this person is me?"

Li Yan relaxed again.

The sunlight passed through the gaps between the leaves, casting spots of light on the ground. The roads in the city were quite congested, so the Lamborghini could not exert any combat power at all, and could only let the shadows of the trees and spots of light sway on the hood of the car.

"Yan," Wei Yunzhi put his hand on Li Yan's thigh again, "I only care about your evaluation."

...There's a traffic jam now, so I'm definitely not driving.

"Is this why you want to participate in the project selection?"

"Well, I also want to try to see how strict the legendary devil judge is."

Li Yan laughed out loud, "Damn it, at first they all said I was an angel investor, but if they were more strict, I would become a devil judge."

As he laughed, he suddenly tasted something special in Wei Yunzhi's words.

"Hmm? Zhizhi, you don't have masochistic tendencies, do you?"

"You are driving, Yan."
