I met my whole family through Baidu Tieba.

"Alright, you can go ahead now. I still have something to discuss with him."

Wei Shengjun patted his son's shoulder, and when he patted him a second time, he also grabbed his son's arm before letting go and withdrawing his hand.

This kid's grown up; his arms are thicker than mine now. He's just still so immature, it's a real headache.

Wei Shengjun sighed inwardly.

Upon hearing Wei Shengjun's words, Mike didn't say anything more, but simply pointed in Shen Kang's direction, "I'm going over there, my car is still parked over there."

Wei Shengjun nodded. "Okay."

Then the father and son returned.

When Mike arrived in front of Shen Kang and the others, he pretended to walk past Shen Kang to get his car from the parking lot at the other end of the alley.

But the foot that had just lifted its head suddenly stopped, and it turned to face Shen Kang.

His action attracted the attention of the three people present, who all looked over.

Wei Shengjun's heart skipped a beat. He thought, "Could this kid be harboring resentment and suddenly acting recklessly, planning something?"

Wei Shengjun moved his foot, already prepared to give his son another beating.

But under the watchful eyes of the three, Mike simply bowed slightly towards Shen Kang, his voice clear: "...Uncle Shen, I'm sorry."

This apology was clearly much more sincere than the previous ones.

Shen Kang seemed to be thinking about something, then smiled brightly, "Okay, I accept your apology."

Mike straightened up, wanting to say something, but his mind went blank and he didn't know what to say, so he could only say, "Then I'll be going now."

"it is good."

Mike left, walking further and further away, his back to Shen Kang and the others, quietly letting out a long breath.

He didn't know what was going on, but after listening to what his father had just said, he had a vague feeling that he needed to sincerely apologize to Shen Kang in order to get the other party's forgiveness, as this concerned his family's business.

This family needs to stand up for itself.

That's why he apologized so solemnly just now.

It's not bad to do it?

As Mike thought this, he also vaguely felt that he seemed to have grown up a little.

As Mike walked out of the alley toward the parking lot, he saw someone who was one of the people he had called out earlier that day.

He was also the boy whose expression was the strangest when he first saw Shen Kang's face.

The boy seemed to have been waiting there for a while. When he saw Mike coming, he quickly went up to him and asked, "Brother Wei, are you alright?"

In front of the boys, Mike immediately jumped up again, nonchalantly saying, "What could possibly be wrong with me? Nothing." Then, glancing around, he asked, "Where are they? Why are you the only one here?"

The boy said, "I don't know where they all went... Brother Wei, was that your dad just now?"

Mike nodded. "Mm."

The boy then asked, "So, who is that little brat we were supposed to ambush?" He laughed as he spoke, "Uncle Wei even made you call him Uncle Shen, as if he were a high-ranking person."

Mike thought for a moment and said, "He is indeed of a high generation, so calling him Uncle Shen is perfectly fine."

The boy was taken aback upon hearing this, and in that instant, he thought of many things.

Mike didn't want to discuss the topic any further. He pulled his car keys from his pocket. "Let's go. Where are you going? To find them, or back?"

The boy, who was still pondering, stopped thinking about it for the time being and said, "Then we definitely won't go back. It's only this late, let's call them over again and find somewhere to play."

As she spoke, she followed in Mike's footsteps.

Mike said as he walked away, "If you want to play, you guys go ahead and play. I have something to do."

The boy casually asked, "What's up?"

"Looking for a job."

"..."

The boy suddenly stopped and stood in front of Mike, looking him up and down as if he were a stranger, quite surprised.

How could Brother Wei say something like that?

"What are you looking at?" Mike blurted out, then pushed him aside and continued walking towards the parking lot.

He suddenly lost interest in many things, including Hsu Wen-chieh, who came from Taiwan.

He felt he had more important things to do. For example, he could visit his family's factory. But then he thought again that he was definitely not as good as his father at the factory; even his father couldn't do anything about it, so there was no point in him going.

It would be better to find a job. If the factory really can't stay afloat, the family might have to rely on themselves.

The boy didn't follow, but just stared blankly at Mike's departing figure.

……

Wei Shengjun watched his son's back turn and disappear into the alley. Thinking of his son's sincere "Uncle Shen, I'm sorry" just now, Wei Shengjun's eyes were filled with a complex mix of emotions, including relief: Even if he didn't get anything out of President Shen today, it wouldn't be a loss. His son was finally starting to grow up.

Shen Kang then made Wei Shengjun wait a little longer.

He and Yu Zeliang went back to the restaurant first, told everyone that they had something to do later, and asked them to go back after they finished eating and not to worry about them.

Then, he left alone and came back to find Wei Shengjun.

Wei Shengjun, who knew the area better than Shen Kang, suggested, "There's a teahouse nearby that serves excellent Pu'er tea. Mr. Shen, shall we go sit down for a bit?"

Shen Kang naturally agreed, so the two of them left the alley, walked a short distance, and arrived at a teahouse, where they went in and booked a private room.

After ordering tea, the waiter left first, and the two chatted casually.

Before long, the tea master from the teahouse came in, gave a performance for the two of them, brewed the tea, and then the two of them began to taste it.

"It tastes really good," Shen Kang praised after taking a sip.

Wei Shengjun chuckled and said, "I'm glad Mr. Shen likes it..."

After discussing some tea knowledge, Wei Shengjun finally couldn't hold back any longer and got to the point: "...Speaking of tea, our factory's electric kettles are mainly sold overseas. Those foreigners usually drink cold water, and only boil water when making tea or coffee. But as you know, Mr. Shen, with the financial crisis, foreign trade orders have plummeted, and business has become difficult."

Seeing that Wei Shengjun had finally gotten to the point, Shen Kang thought for a moment and said, "I remember yesterday, Mr. Wei, you mentioned that you seem to be an OEM manufacturer for other brands?"

At yesterday's industry conference, the business owners who were interested in learning about Anjia Household Services' cooperation model only expressed a preliminary interest. Due to time constraints, they couldn't go into detail.

Seeing that Shen Kang had spoken, Wei Shengjun quickly followed suit and explained the sign.

Upon hearing this, Shen Kang laughed and said, "If you can do OEM for them, then it seems that your factory is quite capable, Mr. Wei."

Wei Shengjun modestly replied, "I wouldn't dare say our strength is absolute, but we certainly have some. I still remember your speech at the meeting yesterday, Mr. Shen. I completely agree with your philosophy of 'providing customers with the most suitable quality at the most suitable price' and 'preferring to earn less money but ensuring quality.' You put it very well!"

"This is the philosophy that our factory has always adhered to, and we have always done it this way. Otherwise, people wouldn't ask us to manufacture for them, since our products are sold overseas, with huge demand in Europe and America, where product access standards are quite strict, and quality is very important."

In short, the main point of their statement was that their products were of very high quality.

Shen Kang naturally understood, and after thinking for a moment, he suddenly changed the subject: "President Wei, I've always had a question I'd like to ask, and I wonder if you could answer it for me?"

Wei Shengjun was taken aback for a moment, then said, "Of course. Mr. Shen, please ask."

Shen Kang then asked, "I have a feeling that we might not have met for the first time yesterday morning at the hotel's Chinese restaurant. Mr. Wei, have you heard of me somewhere before?"

Wei Shengjun, thinking something was wrong, breathed a sigh of relief and immediately said, "So that's what it is. Indeed, I knew about you, President Shen, before."

"It's quite a coincidence that we also used Anjia Housekeeping's daily cleaning service before. Sometimes when the house is messy and we need to clean it up in time, the housekeeper can't handle it all by herself, so we always call your service. The service quality is very high, and my family is very satisfied."

"A while ago, when I came home for dinner, I noticed that the rice tasted a little different. I casually asked about it and found out that your housekeeper had recommended your Anjia rice cooker to my wife. My wife thought it was good and bought it."

Upon hearing this, Shen Kang interjected, "Buying our rice cooker? Mr. Wei, your family is quite frugal."

Their Anjia smart rice cooker is quite advanced compared to the traditional rice cookers used by ordinary households, and it is also more expensive than traditional rice cookers. However, for business people like Wei Shengjun, using the Anjia rice cooker is indeed more economical.

Wei Shengjun laughed and said, "My wife and I both come from rural areas and have lived through hard times, so we've never been too particular about these things."

After recounting this little anecdote, Wei Shengjun continued, "It was through this incident that I learned that, Mr. Shen, your Anjia Housekeeping service doesn't just sell housekeeping services, you also sell products!"

Wei Shengjun slapped his thigh. "I was immediately impressed by this idea! Later, I even studied your sales model, Mr. Shen. I found it to be very comprehensive and complete, covering everything from training and commissions to after-sales service. I was quite interested and wanted to inquire whether your Anjia Housekeeping service accepts cooperation. But it's really a coincidence that I ran into you here before I even went to your home."

Upon hearing this, Shen Kang finally understood why Wei Shengjun had been so enthusiastic when he saw him yesterday morning.

Judging from the current situation, Wei Shengjun's willingness to cooperate is clearly the strongest among all the bosses.

Shen Kang then asked when, if both parties had confirmed their intention to cooperate, they could go to investigate and discuss the details.

Wei Shengjun immediately replied, "Anytime is fine! If you have time, Mr. Shen, you can come to our factory for an inspection right now!"

Shen Kang thought to himself, "Why not do it now? I don't have anything important to do today anyway," so he immediately agreed and asked where Wei Shengjun's factory was.

Knowing that it was in the High-tech Zone, he figured that he wouldn't be able to come back in time, so he immediately called He Qiuzhu and told them to take his luggage back to school and not wait for him, as he had something to do and would go back tomorrow.

Seeing this, Wei Shengjun also made a phone call.

He brought an assistant with him to the meeting. After giving the man a few instructions, Shen Kang finished his phone call, and the two set off.

Wei Shengjun drove there, with Shen Kang in tow, heading towards the High-tech Zone.

A little over an hour later, we arrived at our destination.

Led by Wei Shengjun, Shen Kang wandered around the factory and randomly grabbed a few staff members to ask them questions.

After touring around, Shen Kang had a general idea of ​​Wei Shengjun's factory.

Given the current distribution volume of Anjia Household Services' sales channels, Wei Shengjun's factory production capacity is more than sufficient, and even has a large surplus.

Moreover, the quality of the products from Wei Shengjun's factory, based on what Shen Kang has seen so far, is indeed quite satisfactory.

In summary, if Anjia Ecology is looking to bring in third-party partners, Wei Shengjun's factory would be a very good option.

Shen Kang even felt that in previous years, Wei Shengjun's factory might not have cooperated with him, since Wei Shengjun's factory had a fixed distribution channel.

Fortunately, it's currently a financial crisis. With orders plummeting, Anjia Housekeeping, a medium-sized distribution channel, has become a hot commodity in Wei Shengjun's eyes.

Shen Kang thought about it for a moment.

After inspecting the factory area, Shen Kang was led by Wei Shengjun to his office.

Wei Shengjun personally brewed the tea.

Shen Kang sipped his tea, offered a compliment, and then expressed his opinion: "President Wei, I am personally quite satisfied with your factory. If there are no unforeseen circumstances, then we can proceed to the next step of discussing the specific details of the cooperation."

Upon hearing this, Wei Shengjun finally felt a great sense of relief, and a smile spread across his face: "That's great, I'm ready anytime. By the way, if you like this tea, Mr. Shen, please take some with you later, I can't finish it all by myself."

"Then I won't be polite."

Shen Kang chuckled and brought up another matter: "Also, Mr. Wei, given the current economic climate, I reckon everyone's finances aren't exactly flush. If all the other details are settled and everyone's in order to move into production, Anjia Technology could purchase a portion of your factory's shares in cash to ensure sufficient cash flow for production. What do you think, Mr. Wei?"

Upon hearing this, Wei Shengjun was taken aback, wondering if he had misheard.

In the current environment, even I am not confident that the factory can survive until tomorrow. As a result, General Manager Shen not only wants to cooperate with me and provide sales channels, but also dares to invest in this environment.
