To marry into the family in place of his brother? Impossible!

Lu Ming's hands were trembling.

It wasn't out of fear, but out of excitement. He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, but his eyes still involuntarily reddened.

He recalled how, three months ago, he was squatting at the entrance of the science park picking up documents, and how Jiang Zhe had reacted.

Those images were like thorns, piercing his heart for a long time.

Now, those thorns are starting to loosen.

He's not a failure; he'll definitely find his own path.

He picked up his phone, found Jiang Jinhuan's number, and dialed it.

The phone rang a few times before being answered.

"Jin Huan?" Lu Ming's voice was a little tense.

"Hmm." Jiang Jinhuan's voice came through the receiver, carrying his usual calm.

Every time Lu Ming heard his voice, he felt inexplicably at ease.

It was because Jiang Jinhuan was there that he had time to focus on making his own products.

The factory that Jiang Jinhuan found for this collaboration was one of the Song family's factories.

It is precisely because of these support systems that he is able to fully demonstrate his abilities.

He was very grateful to Jiang Jinhuan.

Lu Ming announced loudly, "The trial operation of Song's factory has passed, with the yield rate increasing by 12% and production efficiency increasing by 18%."

The factory manager was very satisfied, saying that our system was even better than they had expected.

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone.

"Congratulations," Jiang Jinhuan said, his voice still calm, but Lu Ming could sense that he was smiling as well.

Lu Ming held his phone and repeated the numbers: "The yield rate increased by 12 percent, and production efficiency increased by 18 percent."

The factory manager said that if we could help them further optimize their logistics scheduling system, they would be willing to entrust us with the entire intelligent transformation of the factory.

Jiang Jinhuan was silent for a moment, then said, "Regarding the logistics dispatch system, you should first come up with a plan, and I'll help you connect with Song's technical team. They have mature experience in this area, which can save you from detours."

Lu Ming was taken aback: "Song's technical team? They'd be willing to help us?"

"I've mentioned your situation to President Song. The Song family could become Qihang's first strategic partner."

With your technology, combined with the Song family's resources and channels, Qihang can become one of the top three in the industry within three years.

Since Song Qingci is also a shareholder of this company, he would naturally not miss the opportunity to take shortcuts in a win-win situation.

He wanted to cling tightly to Song Qingci's leg.

With the reputation of the Song family factory, expanding into other businesses will be much easier.

Lu Ming tightened his grip on his phone.

Top three in the industry.

These four words were once an unattainable dream for him.

When he founded Qihang Technology, his biggest wish was to survive, to make the company last for three years, and to pay his employees' salaries on time.

He never even considered being in the top three in the industry, never.

"Jin Huan," his voice was a little strained, "thank you."

"What are you thanking me for?" Jiang Jinhuan's voice carried a hint of amusement. "I invested money, so I'll share in your profits. It's a fair trade."

Lu Ming smiled, but his eyes were red.

He thought, this must be what it feels like to be trusted.

Haicheng.

Song Qingci's room.

Jiang Jinhuan sat down opposite her.

Song Qingci's gaze always quietly fell on him.

The tenderness in her eyes seemed to overflow.

She only reluctantly looked away when Jiang Jin Huan looked at her.

Jiang Jinhuan looked at Song Qingci with curiosity.

He felt a sense of familiarity with her, especially her scent.

Why does it smell exactly the same as the one I had on my bed the day before yesterday?

In my hazy memory, that woman's face always overlaps with the face of the woman in front of me.

But how could that be?

As Jiang Jinhuan thought of this, his gaze unconsciously fell on Song Qingci's chest.

Song Qingci sat at his desk with a document spread out in front of him.

But his eyes darted around, and his face gradually turned red.

Her fingers trembled slightly.

At one point, she rolled her eyes at Jiang Jinhuan, but said nothing, letting his gaze sweep over her.

She took a deep breath and focused her attention on the documents in front of her.

This document is not Xingyao's business document, but Qihang Technology's business plan. It's a plan personally drafted by Jiang Jinhuan, detailing Qihang Technology's development prospects.

There is data, there are examples, and all inferences are based on facts.

She couldn't see any problems; it was an excellent proposal that could be implemented immediately.

"I told you that money was a loan, so why are you giving me shares?"

Song Qingci's voice startled Jiang Jinhuan from his reverie.

Jiang Jinhuan paused for a moment, then said, "Of course we'd cling to President Song's coattails! With your support, Qihang Technology can avoid several years of detours. Compared to that, what are those shares?"

Song Qingci said, "So, Qihang Technology is now your and my company?"

"Yes, you are the second largest shareholder!"

Song Qingci smiled, her smile carrying a hint of coquettishness.

"You're a slippery one too!"

Jiang Jin Huan shook his head: "This is a good thing. From my perspective, I can't possibly abandon the main road and specifically build another one!"

Jiang Jin Huan isn't stupid; it would be foolish not to use available resources.

Song Qingci picked up her phone and dialed the purchasing department's number.

"Director Wang, the Qihang Technology company I mentioned to you last time has successfully completed the trial run of their automated testing system in our factory."

"Please arrange for us to sign a long-term procurement framework agreement with them. The initial batch will consist of twenty sets, with subsequent increases based on the factory's needs."

"Okay, Mr. Song, I was just about to talk to you about this. I initially doubted that small company had the capability."

The equipment performed much better than we expected; our yield rate improved significantly after using it.

And it can save us at least 20% of our costs. Even if you hadn't said anything, I would have recommended ordering these automated inspection systems!

"Okay, I understand. Please make the arrangements as soon as possible!"

Director Wang readily agreed.

Song Qingci hung up the phone and dialed the technical department's number again: "Director Li, Qihang Technology is developing a logistics dispatch system."

Please assign two people to help them coordinate and share our experience and technical resources with them.

"Mr. Song, well... Qihang Technology is a small company, and our technical resources..."

"I know they are a small company. But their technological direction is correct, and their products are up to standard."

This has been proven in our company; being a small company does not mean being without value.

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone: "Understood, Mr. Song, I'll arrange it right away."

Song Qingci hung up the phone and leaned back in her chair.

Sunlight streamed in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, bathing her in a warm golden glow.

She looked at Jiang Jinhuan with a smile, as if she were asking for credit.

"I've arranged everything for the launch. The purchasing department will sign a long-term agreement with them, and the technical department will also send someone to coordinate."

Jiang Jin Huan said, "Thank you, President Song!"

Song Qingci said, "Didn't you already say that? That's our property, you don't need to thank me!"
