Chapter 357 Confused Jiang Defu

The global popularity of LCD TVs has directly made Longya the world's number one in white goods. This not only shocked its peers in the production and sales of white goods around the world, but also made domestic people of insight begin to face up to the rise of Suning and Longya.

"Suning, your National Day gift of LCD TVs is really well done. Many leaders have praised your patriotic act."

“Haha, Lao Su, this is just a marketing gimmick.

The real gift is already at the Shanghai port. I was just about to ask you to contact the principal to handle the customs clearance and then quickly ship it back to Changsha."

"Huh? What exactly is it?"

"They are all very important things, such as CNC machine tools and photolithography machines, and of course the cutting-edge high-tech information I have collected over the years."

"What? Why didn't you tell me such an important thing earlier?" Su Lie stood up excitedly and hurried out to contact the principal in China.

Looking at Su Lie who ran out in a hurry, Su Ning didn't say anything. These "gifts" were too important. They were high-tech technical information and physical objects that he had sorted out from the space world in the past few years. They were definitely things that could not be bought with money.

In fact, Su Lie came here today with his leaders to invite Suning to participate in the 35th anniversary National Day military parade, but when he heard about Suning’s important "gift", Su Lie was so excited that he had forgotten everything.

The principal, who was far away in Changsha, also received a call from Su Lie in Hong Kong through the internal secret phone. The principal immediately realized the seriousness of the matter and was glad that the "gift" had arrived in Shanghai.

As soon as he hung up Su Lie's call, the principal contacted the military to send a transport plane to airlift the "gift". As it happened to be approaching National Day, he could also contact his superiors and mobilize the three naval forces for strict control on the grounds of ensuring the smooth progress of National Day.

The military's move this time was too big. Li Zhicheng was confused as he watched the military transport planes taking off and landing, and at the same time he felt the importance of the matter. However, the strict confidentiality meant that they didn't know what was being airlifted.

"Mr. Li, why is the military making such a big move this time?"

"Hey! Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask!"

"Yes! Mr. Li!"

In fact, Li Zhicheng didn’t know much information. He only knew that the destination of the transport plane was Changsha, and the name he could never forget - Changsha Institute of Technology.

When Li Zhicheng thought of this name, he couldn't help but think of the "genius" whom he destroyed with his own hands. A lot of things happened in the past few years. His wife Jiang Hong also passed away due to illness, leaving him and his blind daughter Li Qianqian to depend on each other.

Li Zhicheng has thought a lot in the past few years, but the more he thought about it, the more strange it seemed to him. He really couldn't understand why Suning, who could become the "King of Soldiers", would commit suicide. Soon he realized that Suning must not be dead, and believed that with his character of striving to be the best in everything, he would never commit suicide.

Looking at the mysterious "gift" in front of him, Li Zhicheng felt it was magical for some reason. Maybe it was because of Changsha Institute of Technology, but Li Zhicheng was always associated with Suning.

Jiang Defu, who had already retired and was at home, also noticed the military's actions and felt puzzled. "Xiao Meng, why are the military's actions so big recently?"

"Mr. Jiang, we don't know the specific situation, but the order is to guard against all suspicious targets and ensure that the National Day proceeds safely and orderly."

"Oh! So that's it!"

When the principal, important leaders and scientific and technological workers transferred from all over the country saw the "mysterious gift" transported to Changsha, everyone couldn't help but get excited.

"Principal, leader, this is a three-axis linkage!"

"This also has four-axis linkage?"

"Is this a five-axis linkage?"

The sounds of surprise spread one after another throughout the venue, just like the joy of opening a blind box, making everyone surprised by this hard-earned "mysterious gift".

Kawana Ayako, who has been promoted to deputy general manager of Longya and is still in charge of marketing and planning, does not understand the orders from her boss Suning. Thinking about what her boss Suning has entrusted to her, Kawana Ayako's mind is full of imagination.

"Jiang Yaning, you've been at Longya Company for quite some time, right?"

"Yes, Mr. Chuan, I have been in Longya for almost a year."

"Well, because of your outstanding work performance, the company is planning to send you to the United States to study law and accounting."

"Ah? Mr. Chuan, is that true?"

"Haha, you must be so surprised!"

"Boss Chuan, can I refuse?"

"Ah? What did you say?" Kawana Ayako looked at Jiang Yaning in disbelief.

"Boss Chuan, I'm very grateful for the company's recognition and training of me, but I have no plans to study abroad."

"What? Jiang Yaning, do you know how rare this opportunity is?"

"Boss Chuan, I'm sorry to disappoint you."

Kawana Ayako looked at Jiang Yaning for a while, then shook her head helplessly. She really couldn't tell how pretty Jiang Yaning was. Although her abilities were indeed very good, she still couldn't understand what her boss Suning saw in Jiang Yaning.

"Alright! Go out and work first!"

"Yes! Mr. Chuan!"

After Jiang Yaning left, Kawana Ayako picked up the phone and called Suning who was far away in Shenzhen. After all, she needed to let him know about this matter as soon as possible.

"Hello! I'm Suning!"

"Boss, the task you assigned to me has not been completed. Jiang Yaning refuses to go abroad."

"Oh? Did she say why?"

"no!"

"Ayako Kawana, help Jiang Yaning enroll in some training courses and night classes at schools like the University of Hong Kong, and then help her find a full-time driver and a private car."

"Nani?"

"Why? Mr. Chuan, do you have any objections?"

"No! Absolutely not! I will definitely take care of this!"

"Well, I'll let President Su contact you."

"Hey! Boss, there's something I'm not sure if Ayako should say?"

"What?"

"Boss, actually, there are some things that Ayako can help you with, and she can definitely do it better than Jiang Yaning. I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

Hearing Kawana Ayako's words on the phone, Su Ning, as a veteran driver, how could he not know that she was driving? Then he couldn't help but explain angrily, "Kawana Ayako, what are you thinking about? Jiang Yaning is my sister!"

"Nani?"

"Kawana Ayako, I don't want others to know about my relationship with Jiang Yaning. You should take good care of her."

"Hey! Ayako understands!"

"Well! Now that Jiang Yaning's affairs have been arranged, come to Shenzhen! It seems I have to give you a stern lecture myself."

"Hi!" Kawana Ayako replied in surprise.

Soon Jiang Yaning was promoted to deputy director of the sales department of Longya Company. The company then provided a car and sent a full-time female driver from Longya Security to be responsible for Jiang Yaning's daily life and safety.

He originally thought that his refusal would make the mysterious boss and the vice president Kawana Ayako angry and embarrassed, but he did not expect that he would be inexplicably promoted, and even have a private driver and a car. Looking at the capable female driver in front of him, Jiang Yaning, who grew up in the army, could easily detect her identity. She was definitely a genuine veteran.

This made Jiang Yaning even more puzzled. Perhaps he saw Jiang Yaning's confusion and uneasiness, so Su Lie came forward to explain, "Yaning, don't think too much!
Your father, Jiang Defu, and I have been comrades-in-arms for many years, so it's only natural that I should take care of you."

"Thank you, Mr. Su!"

"Haha, from now on, when there are no outsiders around, just call me uncle!"

"Huh? Yes! Uncle!"

Suning sent me a "mysterious gift", and I felt that there was no burden in my heart anymore. At this moment, my whole body was relaxed, and I suddenly felt that I had completed a mission.

Suning now has a new nickname called "Su Half City". It has almost acquired half of the land in Shenzhen and is building new production bases everywhere because Western capital has finally begun to try to let Longya Company do the processing on its behalf.

The high cost-performance of Longya's products has reaped huge profits for Western investors, prompting them to increase their investment and contract manufacturing orders in China. Gradually, Shenzhen's Longya has taken on white goods orders from around the world, even taking over Xiao Rizi's appliance business. Because computers are still considered high-tech, Western investors only allow Longya to process 40% of the business, leaving the rest to be produced domestically. However, Longya's high-quality and low-cost products are swaying Western investors, and they believe that one day, just like the white goods, all of the business will end up in Longya's pockets.

At the end of 1984, TVB held a New Year's Eve concert, and Su Ning was personally invited by Shao Laoliu to participate. After the concert, when Su Ning left, he saw Cherie Chung standing there alone waiting for a bus.

"Miss Zhong, would you like me to give you a ride?"

"Okay! Thank you, Mr. Su!"

"Haha, you're welcome!"

After Cherie Chung got in the car, Su Ning started chatting with her, "I heard that Miss Chung used to work part-time and go to school at the same time?"

"Yes! Now when I have time, I will also attend some training courses."

"Well, have you ever thought about quitting the entertainment industry?"

"what?"

"Miss Zhong has been in the entertainment industry for five or six years, right? I'm sure she has a very clear understanding of this place."

"Boss Su, I'm at the peak of my career in the entertainment industry right now. If I quit, I don't know what to do."

"Ms. Zhong, why don't you come to Longya and be my secretary?"

"Ah? What?" Cherie Chung looked at Su Ning in surprise.

"Ms. Zhong, I've actually been observing you for a long time, and I've always wanted you to stay by my side."

"."

"If you feel this is too sudden, you might as well go back and think about it carefully. I'm waiting for your reply."

"Mr. Su, I will think about it carefully."

The car drove to the downstairs of Cherie Chung's building. After she got out of the car, Su Ning drove away. He had no shortage of women now. After Linda broke up with him, although he still didn't have a formal girlfriend, he often changed his secretaries.

The main reason is that Suning is too busy with work and does not have much time for romantic discussions, so it is better to just get what they want directly. Although this kind of game between adults is not appropriate, Suning still feels it is the most convenient and appropriate one.

Seeing her daughter coming back with a worried look on her face, Mother Zhong looked over curiously, "Ah Hong, what's wrong with you?"

"Huh? Mom, I'm fine!"

Looking at her daughter who was forcing a smile, Zhong's mother did not ask any further questions, knowing that her daughter was grown up now and must have her own things to do.

"Ah Hong, your LCD TV is really nice!" Mother Zhong wanted to change the subject to stop Chung Chuhong's wild thoughts. "Look how clear the picture is. Fortunately, we moved into a big house with three bedrooms and two living rooms. Otherwise, we might not be able to fit it."

"Mom, what do you think if I quit the entertainment industry, is it okay?"

"Ah? Ah Hong, what did you say?"

"Mom, you were the one who decided to let me participate in the Miss Hong Kong competition, so now I want to quit the entertainment industry and I want to ask for your opinion."

"Ah Hong, you're at the peak of your career right now, why do you want to quit so early?"

"Mom, I've seen so much in the past few years in the entertainment industry." Cherie Chung looked at her mother with a wry smile. "If it weren't for the Dragon Tooth Company contract, Shaw Brothers might have forced me to do something I didn't want to do."

"This..." Mother Zhong knew her daughter was telling the truth, but she still felt reluctant. "Ah Hong, you don't want to quit the entertainment industry and study abroad, do you?"

"No! The boss of Dragon Tooth Company asked me to be his secretary."

"Huh? Really?" Mother Zhong looked at her daughter in surprise.

"Yes! Just now downstairs, Mr. Su personally invited me."

"Haha, then you can quit if you want! It's also good to be able to join Longya Company."

"Mom, you don't object anymore?"

"Haha, maybe you will have a better future in Longya Company." Zhong's mother is not a fool. Of course she knows what Suning means by inviting Cherie Chung.

Li Zhicheng's health is getting worse and worse. Lying on the hospital bed, he only thinks about his daughter Li Qianqian. He will never be truly at ease until his death if he doesn't make good arrangements for her.

"Old Zhou, I called you here this time because I have something to ask you!" The terminally ill Li Zhicheng looked at the president of Changsha Institute of Technology.

"Old Li, if you had known this would happen, you wouldn't have done it in the first place!" The principal knew that Li Zhicheng couldn't let go of something, and he couldn't help but sigh.

"Old Zhou, I knew Jiang Changyi wasn't dead. Ask him to come and give me a ride!"

"Hey! I'll send someone to pick him up right away!" Looking at Li Zhicheng who was about to pass away, the principal didn't say any more nonsense.

However, Jiang Defu on the side had a look of confusion on his face. When he heard that Jiang Changyi was not dead yet, Jiang Defu was filled with shock and confusion, feeling that many things had been concealed from him.

When Suning appeared in Li Zhicheng's ward, Jiang Defu just stared at his eldest son with wide eyes, feeling that this son whom he had never cared about was the most mysterious.

"Changyi, you finally showed up." Li Zhicheng looked at Su Ning's dark face and couldn't help laughing.

"Mr. Li, you should just call me Suning! Jiang Changyi is dead!"

"Hey! You still hate me!" Hearing Su Ning say this, Li Zhicheng sighed, understanding everything. "I'm almost dying, can't you forgive me?"

"Mr. Li, I don't want to deceive you against my will!"

"You kid, you're still so stubborn.

Is it so hard to just give in to a dying man like me? "Li Zhicheng knew that Su Ning couldn't let go of the old grudge. Looking at his daughter, Li Qianqian, Li Zhicheng stopped dwelling on the issue. "Jiang Su Ning, I'm about to meet Marx, and the only thing I can't let go of is Qianqian. Do you still keep your promise to me?"

"It counts!"

"That's good! Suning, I'll leave Xixi to you. You must treat her well." Li Zhicheng trembled as he placed Li Xixi's hand on Suning's hand.

"dad."

"Father-in-law, don't worry about leaving Xixi to me!" This was his original promise. The Li family also owed him some favors that he needed to repay.

"Okay! Suning, I'm right." Li Zhicheng really wanted to say sorry, but in the end he died before he could finish his words.

"dad."

Looking at Li Zhicheng who passed away, Suning felt very emotional. Looking at the busy bosses around him, he also saw his adoptive father Jiang Defu. Suning just nodded to Jiang Defu and had no intention of going up to talk to him.

After accompanying Li Qixi to take care of Li Zhicheng's funeral, Su Ning took Li Qixi to get a marriage certificate, and then flew back to his own Su family mansion in Shenzhen.

"Sissi, everyone will have this day, so just let it go."

"Jiang Su Ning, are you really not dead?"

"Haha, you're asking me this question now?"

"There are so many things, I really don't have time to ask."

"Back then, I found a way to go to Hong Kong and changed my name to Suning. Now I'm running some small businesses, so I think I should have no problem supporting you in the future."

"Su Suning, have you been married in the past few years?"

"No! But I've had a few girlfriends over and over again. Some of them we've broken up with completely, while others I'm still in touch with. Sissi, do you mind?"

"I don't know either!"

Li Qianqian really didn't know now that she had just lost her closest relatives and had finally found someone to rely on. This was the most confused time in her life.

She really wanted to tell Suning that she minded, but she couldn't ask Suning for anything, and it was also unreasonable. She could only learn to accept it slowly.

Su Ning had never thought that he would be entangled with Li Qiqi again in this life. It seemed that the two of them were indeed destined to be together. However, when he thought of the pregnant Cherie Chung, he felt a little headache.
