Chapter 445 Liang Sishen
Ever since leaving Suning and Song Yunping, Yang Xun's life has been very difficult. Not only did his girlfriend from Fudan University run away, but he could only stay in the small city of Jinzhou to run the Yangzi Street Commercial City.

Suning and Xun Jianxiang have been fulfilling their promises and have never bothered Yang Xun. However, he has accumulated a considerable amount of funds over the years.

But it was still very different from the Hongyun boss who dominated the business world back then. Yang Xun's heart was always in endless regret. It was not until this time that he realized the importance of a platform.

"Boss, someone named Xiao Ran is here to visit." Yang Xun's secretary Xiao Lin knocked on the door of Yang Xun's office.

"Oh? Please ask him to come in!" Yang Xun said to the secretary indifferently.

"Yes! Boss."

Soon, Secretary Xiao Lin came in with a young man in a dark green windbreaker. Judging from Yang Xun's many years of experience, this man was definitely no ordinary person. "Boss, this is Mr. Xiao Ran."

"Hello, Mr. Xiao, I am Yang Xun." Yang Xun stood up and looked at the unfamiliar Xiao Ran with a smile.

"Boss Yang, I've heard of your great name for a long time. My humble name is Xiao Ran."

"Haha, Mr. Xiao, please take a seat." Yang Xun smiled and stood up to greet Xiao Ran, then asked Xiao Ran, "Would you like tea or coffee, Mr. Xiao?"

"Cafe!"

"Xiao Lin, pour two cups of coffee." Yang Xun looked at Xiao Lin and ordered.

"Yes! Boss."

After the secretary left, Xiao Ran stopped looking around and looked meaningfully at Yang Xun in front of him, "Boss Yang, the conditions here are much better than I thought!"

"Haha, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Mr. Xiao." Yang Xun seemed to be accustomed to Xiao Ran's smile. He was still polite to the bewildered Xiao Ran. "I wonder if there is any way I can help you, Mr. Xiao."

Just then, Yang Xun's secretary Xiao Lin brought two cups of coffee and said, "Enjoy your meal."

"Well, Mr. Yang's coffee is very good." Xiao Ran picked up the coffee, tasted it, and said with admiration.

"Haha, as long as Mr. Xiao likes it."

"Boss Yang, I won't beat around the bush with you." Xiao Ran put down his coffee and said arrogantly, "I want to open a five-star hotel in Shanghai that will rival the Hongyun International Hotel. I heard that Boss Yang was the former general manager of the Hongyun Hotel, so I'd like to ask Boss Yang to step down and become the general manager of our new hotel."

"Huh? Sorry, that happened many years ago." After knowing Xiao Ran's intention, Yang Xun immediately refused with an unnatural expression, "I haven't been involved in the hotel industry for a long time."

Xiao Ran had done his homework before coming here. Although the Hongyun Hotel hadn't publicized the reason for Yang Xun's dismissal, it would be easy for them to find out. Xiao Ran smiled and said to Yang Xun, "Mr. Yang, why don't you listen to my terms first? As long as Mr. Yang invests one million, you can own 10% of the shares of the new hotel."

"There is another shareholder named Liang. We have invested a total of 20 million to build this hotel."

"Huh? Sorry! It seems that I have to disappoint you, Mr. Xiao." Although Yang Xun was very moved, he still shook his head and rejected Xiao Ran.

"Haha, I know you're worried about Hongyun." Looking at Yang Xun, who was already a little moved, Xiao Ran seemed to have seen through Yang Xun. "I guess you also know that Hongyun's four-star hotels in second-tier cities like Donghai and Jinzhou are about to open. They won't pay much attention to your affairs."

"Also, let me tell you that my status in Donghai is no less than that of Suning in Donghai. I might even be more prosperous in the city than he is. So, I can let you select land in the city to build Donghai's Yangzi Street Commercial City. I assume you're also eager to expand your Yangzi Street Commercial City, right?"

"Mr. Xiao, are you serious?" Yang Xun was completely excited at this time.

"Of course! You will be the general manager of our newly invested star-rated hotel, responsible for the specific daily management work. The other major shareholder and I fully support you. You will also own 10% of the hotel's shares, so you won't end up like you did at Hongyun."

"Thank you, Mr. Xiao. I'm willing to join you."

"Well, very good." Seeing Yang Xun agreed, Xiao Ran looked unconcerned, as if he had expected it. "But I have to remind Mr. Yang that although we all trust you, you must learn from your mistakes at Hongyun and don't treat the new hotel too much as your own."

"Ah? I'll remember it." Yang Xun was warned once, his face turned blue and red and he lowered his head.

Yang Xun knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. He no longer needed to stay in this small Jinzhou. He could finally return to the magnificent Shanghai and expand his Yangzi Street Commercial City in Donghai.

As for Xiao Ran's slight contempt and insult, Yang Xun didn't take it too seriously. It was he who was possessed by the devil in the first place, so he couldn't blame others for warning him in advance.

Seeing that Yang Xun was so understanding and honest, Xiao Ran felt very satisfied. He believed that after winning over this great general, it would definitely be helpful to his own career.

After entering the 1990s, the market has achieved comprehensive and rapid development, and China, the giant ocean ship, finally began to move forward at high speed, heading towards the sea of stars.

Donghai Chemical Plant has been a chemical giant both domestically and internationally in recent years, but Suning did not rest on its laurels. Instead, it took precautions and started the second phase of the Donghai Plant project.

As the market has been further opened up, Sino-foreign joint ventures have begun to be tried. Mainland enterprises can obtain world-class technology and capital through joint ventures. The Donghai Chemical Plant, which has very good conditions in all aspects, is a hot commodity in the eyes of foreign chemical giants.

"Director Su, our Tosoh Corporation is the best chemical company in Japan. We can not only provide your Tokai Chemical Plant with world-class technology, but also provide massive financial support." The president of Tosoh Corporation came to Shanghai in person to lobby Suning.

"Mr. President, your Tosoh Company's vinyl chloride is indeed unrivaled in the world, but our Donghai Chemical Plant has no intention of forming a joint venture. I'm afraid you'll be disappointed." Suning politely rejected the Japanese businessman and offered his own advice. "However, I do suggest that you contact some of our mainland's established chemical companies. Perhaps they would be willing to cooperate with your Tosoh Company."

"Director Su, although your Donghai Chemical Plant is already a giant enterprise with an annual output of 70,000 tons, if we, Tosoh, join us and introduce a vinyl chloride production line in the second phase, we can definitely increase the annual production capacity to 150,000 tons. Even 200,000 tons is not impossible." The president of Tosoh Company was still unwilling to give up and still wanted to persuade Suning in front of him.

"I am very grateful for your favor, Mr. President. We at Donghai Chemical Plant will never engage in a joint venture, but there is no problem with cooperation." No matter how favorable the conditions of Tosoh Company are, Suning will not be tempted.

"Director Su"

"Mr. President, I have a very important meeting here, so I'll take my leave first." Suning interrupted the Japanese businessman's continued persuasion.

"Director Su, I'm sorry to trouble you."

"Haha, many chemical companies in our mainland welcome Tosoh's investment. I hope we can have the opportunity to cooperate together."

Because the meeting place with the Tosoh Company's representatives was at the Hongyun Hotel in Shanghai, Suning directly got rid of the Japanese businessman's entanglement and left the room where the Tosoh Company's president was staying.

While riding the elevator, Su Ning unexpectedly spotted Cheng Kaiyan, her slim-fitting business suit revealing her curvaceous figure. "Kaiyan, I heard you're doing very well at Hongyun?"

"Director Su, this is all thanks to the help of you and Sister Song." Cheng Kaiyan looked at Su Ning with a smile on her face.

"Well, you're not a child anymore, you should find a suitable partner as soon as possible!" Looking at the beautiful woman in front of him, Su Ning felt endless regret in his heart, "Kai Yan, let the past be the past! You can't let your future be uncertain because of the past." "Huh?"

Su Ning didn't know whether the silly Cheng Kaiyan could understand, so he took the leaders of the Donghai factory out of the elevator, leaving Cheng Kaiyan standing alone in the elevator in a daze.

When Cheng Kaiyan saw Suning's rare appearance at the Hongyun Hotel, she immediately designed this encounter in order to show off her beauty in front of Suning and try to capture Suning's attention and favor. Unexpectedly, she would be taught a lesson by Suning.

Suning and the others came out of the elevator and walked into the lobby of the Hongyun Hotel. Ma Baoping, who was following Suning, couldn't help but say, "Director, Tosoh Company is really sincere. Why don't you agree to the joint venture?"

"Lao Ma, companies that adopt joint ventures are usually struggling to make ends meet or have outdated equipment. Our Donghai factory is fully capable of maintaining its leading position, so I have never considered a joint venture."

"Ah? So that's it!"

"Mr. Su?"

Su Ning suddenly heard a surprised "foreign fart" and turned to look to the side as normal. He saw Yang Xun sitting in the hall drinking coffee with a young girl.

Su Ning ignored the anxious Yang Xun and instead looked at the familiar-looking young girl with some confusion, "Are you Liang Sisen?"

"Mr. Su, don't you recognize me?" The girl quickly ran to Su Ning and hugged him without any hesitation.

Su Ning quickly pushed away the overly enthusiastic Liang Sisen, then said to Liang Sisen with a smile, "Liang Sisen, you are a big kid now, you can't hug me like this anymore."

"Hmph! You Chinese have too many rules." Liang Sisen was obviously unhappy.

"Haha, yes! We Chinese are not as open as you American girls."

"Mr. Su, do you look down on us Americans?"

"Haha, of course not." Su Ning didn't want to argue with Liang Sishen, so she quickly changed the subject and said, "Sishen, when did you come back? Have you met your Mr. Song?"

"I just came back and haven't seen Mr. Song yet."

"Well, this is my phone number. Let's contact each other when we have time. I have something to do now." Su Ning took out his business card and handed it to Liang Sisen.

"Okay! I came back this time specifically to find you and Mr. Song. This is my business card." Liang Sisen took Su Ning's business card and handed over her own business card.

Su Ning took the business card curiously and looked at it, then looked up at Liang Sisen in surprise, "Liang Sisen, are you working for Roda Chemical in the United States now?"

"Yes!"

After hearing the conversation between Suning and Liang Sisen, the leaders of the Donghai Chemical Plant behind Suning were all surprised. It was because Luoda Chemical was too famous in the chemical industry.

"Well, let's contact each other when we have time." Su Ning looked at Yang Xun who was still feeling uneasy, then said goodbye to Liang Sisen and left.

"Goodbye, Mr. Su!"

After seeing Su Ning and the others leave, Liang Sisen looked at the uneasy Yang Xun, and then asked with some doubt, "Yang Xun, do you know Mr. Su?"

"Ah? Yes! I know him." Yang Xun was really embarrassed at this time.

Seeing that Yang Xun was unwilling to explain anything and also seeing Yang Xun's embarrassment, Liang Sisen did not continue to ask. Anyway, it had nothing to do with her.

"Director, is this an employee of Luoda Chemical?" Ma Baoping and Han Zegang looked at each other in surprise, then looked at Suning and asked.

"Yes, and he's the person in charge of the Huaxia region." Suning handed them the business card.

"Ah? Then can we form a joint venture with Luoda Chemical?"

"Hey! Lao Ma, Lao Han, we really don't need to form a joint venture." Looking at the two people with some whimsical ideas, Suning said helplessly, "The joint venture is nothing more than to obtain technology and funds. We at Donghai Chemical Plant really don't lack these!"

"."

Suning did not explain his relationship with Liang Sisen to his colleagues at Donghai Chemical Plant. There was really no need for such an explanation. After separating from them, he went straight back to his home in Shanghai.

"Pingping, I saw Liang Sisen at Hongyun today."

"Ah? She's back?"

"Yes! They have grown into big girls now."

"Haha, that's great. I wonder if she's pretty now."

"Pingping, Xiaohui hasn't gotten married in all these years. What do you think of him and Liang Sisen?"

"Ah? Their ages?"

"Haha, is age a problem?" Suning said disapprovingly.

"Hey! Xiaohui's marriage has always been a source of worry for my parents." Song Yunping said with a wry smile, also very worried about Song Yunhui's marriage, "If I didn't know that the Cheng family was too difficult to deal with, I would have wanted to introduce Cheng Kaiyan to Xiaohui."

"Well, you should also pay attention to Cheng Kaiyan's affairs. If you meet a good man, introduce him to Cheng Kaiyan!" Hearing Song Yunping mention Cheng Kaiyan, Su Ning said helplessly, "She is not young anymore. She can't stay here forever."

"Well, what do you think of Daxun?" Song Yunping suddenly suggested.

"Huh? Daxun is pretty good, but what does Daxun think?"

"Well, I'll ask Daxun in advance. I'm sure he'll be pleasantly surprised."

"Haha, that's true. Now that I think about it, Cheng Kaiyan and Xun Jianxiang are indeed a good match." Su Ning nodded in agreement. With Xun Jianxiang's current strength and status, he should be able to satisfy the Cheng family, who have nothing.
