"Then...Xiaobai? How did you make all this money? You're obviously much younger than me...Xiaobai? Why don't you say anything, Xiaobai? Can you answer me and satisfy my curiosity, Xiaobai?"

"...I said..." (eye twitching)

"Hmm?" (Tilts head)

"Don't call me Xiaobai!!!"

Chapter 369 Zhou Yaxue's Surprise Again

"In fact, Heizi is not richer than Chen Zixuan. You may not believe it, but a large part of the 50 million that Heizi used to order products came from Chen Zixuan. As for the rest of the funds, they were all raised through the online crowdfunding initiated by Heizi."

Under the repeated questioning of Zhou Yaxue, the annoying little goblin, Miss Heizi, who had just finished a day's inspection of the factory and returned to the Hangzhou Hotel with samples of mobile phone motherboards, still had a helpless look on her face as she told Zhou Yaxue, who had been asking her questions all day, why she was able to come up with so much money in one go to order electronic components from the manufacturers here.

However, while answering the other party, he couldn't help but talk to Zhou Yaxue. That is, of the 50 million yuan of order money for the mobile phone motherboard that she took out this time, the part that actually belonged to Chen Zixuan was only about 2 million yuan at most. The vast majority of it was borrowed by Chen Zixuan using his own house as collateral and from his uncle who was far away in Hubei and was learning real estate development from the boss of Jingyi City.

The real bulk of the money was raised through crowdfunding on a well-known online crowdfunding platform, using about one million of the two million given to her by Chen Zixuan as collateral in the past six months when Miss Heizi registered a company without Chen Zixuan's knowledge when he was not at home.

"Crowdfunding? Even if that's the case, it's impressive to be able to raise so much money through crowdfunding, but is it really okay?"

I have to say, if you are a capable person, even if you have a grudge against her, you will look up to her after you accidentally learn about her previously unnoticed abilities!

Zhou Yaxue has become like this without realizing it. After all, this child was in a very hostile state with Miss Heizi yesterday!

But now, when he was talking to Miss Heizi, whom even the boss of a factory in Hangzhou had to ignore her appearance and age and respectfully call "Mr. Bai", he obviously unconsciously got rid of the competitive attitude he had yesterday towards Miss Heizi.

There is a saying that goes, life is like rape, and people living in society are like mental patients who have been abused by rapists and have developed Stockholm syndrome.

Even if patients dislike each other, at certain times, in certain occasions, in certain environments, and in certain situations, they may find the common ground that they are all victims of rape and thus huddle together for warmth.

Especially when the other person’s situation is so good that you can’t even feel jealous!

"It doesn't matter? What do you mean?" Faced with Zhou Yaxue's sudden curse, Miss Heizi couldn't help but slightly show off her beauty and looked at the other party with sidelong eyes.

Come to think of it, it makes sense. When your career is just about to take off, someone suddenly comes over with a cup of dairy products made with poisonous milk powder and gives you a sip without any warning. If it were someone else, even if they weren't angry, they would probably feel a little uncomfortable.

"That's right. The competition in the mobile phone industry is so fierce right now. Mobile phones with good performance are springing up like mushrooms after rain. Xiaobai... ahem... Heizi, you want to join this industry at this time. Aren't you afraid of... incurring losses?"

Perhaps considering that speaking too bluntly would cause Miss Heizi's dissatisfaction, Zhou Yaxue spoke more tactfully and even hesitated on some key issues.

However, it can be heard from her words that when she said this, she had indeed let go of her prejudice against Miss Heizi, the man named Chen Zixuan. She did not say this poisonous milk just to poison Miss Heizi, who was her love rival.

"This~" From the other party's words, she could tell that the other party had no ill intentions. Miss Heizi, who originally felt that she was poisoned by the other party's pair of shameful big breasts in front of her, did not shout to Zhou Yaxue in front of her in the next second as she had prepared in her heart before, "You TM actually poisoned my nipples."

Instead, he relaxed his slightly raised brows and calmed his mentality, putting on the appearance of "exchanging theoretical knowledge" with a university professor and a female college student who would do anything to get her thesis successfully reviewed, and continued to explain to Zhou Yaxue in front of him.

"Your concern is correct. Indeed, China is now gradually entering the era of Industry 4.0, and all kinds of electronic products are emerging like a hundred flowers blooming. Investing in the production of mobile phones at this time is indeed not the best entrepreneurial choice. But you overlooked one point?"

"Overlooked something?" Seeing Miss Heizi raising her index finger towards her like a professional, Zhou Yaxue couldn't help but show a hint of curiosity and confusion on her face.

"bottleneck!"

"bottleneck?"

"That's right! It's the bottleneck! Although the shells of mobile phones are getting better and better, and the software functions are becoming more and more diverse, one thing that cannot be denied is that the mobile phone industry in China, and even the entire world, has encountered a bottleneck in mobile phone hardware! A bottleneck that cannot be solved no matter how much they innovate!"

"What...?"

“Full screen!”

"Full screen?"

All of a sudden, Zhou Yaxue, who was originally just confused and curious, became interested after hearing what Miss Heizi said!

Yes, full screen! All mobile phones sold on the market now have camera and video functions, and are also pursuing full screen technology in the true sense!

But in modern society, where there are so many photography enthusiasts, and people would take a photo and post it on their social media even when eating at a night market or roadside stall, the front camera of a mobile phone and a true full screen are two forces that cannot coexist!

Even the iPhone, a pioneer in the era of smart phones, which almost everyone in China now owns, has an iPhone. The recently launched iPhone, which has been praised by countless fans, has an unsolvable flaw in the design of the so-called full-screen display, which is the problem of the screen being occupied by the front camera of the phone.

This problem even caused the Aifengteng phone to have its sliding bar on some mobile applications blocked and the application's page-turning function blocked!

It can be said that in the modern mobile phone industry, it is difficult to make a truly full-screen mobile phone with a borderless screen and even the front camera cannot occupy the screen.

For countless mobile phone manufacturers, this seems to be an almost unsolvable problem!

"You...you mean?! You made a full-screen phone that can't really see the front camera, but still has the front camera function?!"

"What do you think?"

At this moment, facing Zhou Yaxue's surprise, Miss Heizi, who seemed to be full of confidence in herself, showed an unfathomable smile as if she was in control of the situation.

Chapter 370: A man’s lower body knows no national boundaries!

[Use the simplest method to solve the most troublesome problem. Remember, Xiaoxuan, this is what I taught you before...]

Thinking back to what his uncle had said to him on the phone before, Chen Zixuan, who was still struggling with the contract handed to him by the old man named Mr. Qiu, the chairman of Jingtian City Investment Group, went straight to the downstairs of an auction venue sponsored by a municipal government agency.

Today, he needs to do one thing, which is to accompany Mr. Qiu, who is very likely to become a [colleague] with him as the general manager of the transportation company in the future, to bid for the land in the new district that Jingtian City Investment Group plans to develop in the future.

"Xiao Chen, you're here~"

"Mr. Qiu? So you're here already? Sorry I'm late."

"It's not the auction time yet, so it's not considered late."

"No, I think arriving after you already counts as being late."

Chen Zixuan showed the respect that a junior should have for his elders. Facing the pair of respectful and even deferential juniors, the old man called Mr. Qiu simply waved his hand indifferently at their seemingly flattering words.

"Let's not talk about this. Xiao Chen, you should know that flattery is not suitable for you. So let's talk about my intention to acquire the transportation company you belong to. How have you been thinking about it these past two days?"

Mr. Qiu's blunt words made Chen Zixuan, who was suspected of flattery, feel a little embarrassed, but this state only stayed on his face for less than three seconds.

Because the other party, while exposing the fact that he was flattering, had already led the topic between them towards Jingtian City Investment Group's acquisition of his Chen Zixuan Transportation Company.

Yes! That's right! It's an acquisition! This is why Mr. Qiu said to Chen Zixuan two days ago when he gave him the so-called contract, "We may be colleagues in the future!"

The contract that was placed in front of Chen Zixuan by this old man, who was already in his fifties or almost sixties, was the acquisition contract for Chen Zixuan's transportation company.

"Well... Mr. Qiu, to be honest... I'm really a little undecided..."

Chen Zixuan still showed some hesitation on his face. Faced with such a question, it was obvious that the result was not something that a young man in his early twenties like him could easily decide.

"What? Haven't you told your uncle that I want to sign a purchase contract with you?" The fifty-something real estate boss knew that the company belonged to Chen Zixuan's uncle through Chen Zixuan's explanation in Mr. Qiu's office the day before yesterday, so he didn't waste time talking to Chen Zixuan. He asked Chen Zixuan the question in his mind directly under Chen Zixuan's hesitant expression. "I think if you tell your uncle about this matter directly, he should agree. After all, for the development of the company, I also hope to establish a relatively complete industrial chain, instead of going to the steel market to negotiate the freight with the transportation company every time I need to purchase steel. For this reason, the conditions set in the purchase contract I gave you two days ago are not low."

"No...it's not like that, Mr. Qiu. I've already told my uncle about this matter, and he agreed and gave me the choice. It's just...it's just that I'm a little undecided..."

Chen Zixuan answered the old man's questions truthfully.

In response to his somewhat lengthy answer, the old man did not say anything more, nor did he say that he was ungrateful. After hearing his answer full of hesitation and indecision, he turned around and stared at him for a long time with his eyes as deep and experienced as an old fox as he walked towards the meeting place in front.

"...Okay, think about it and reply to me. After all, I understand that you are still too young, just like I told you."

"...Feel sorry."

"There's nothing to apologize for, young people~ By the way, I asked someone to help me find the educational video of Teacher Long Ze Xla that you told me about a few days ago..."

"Ah...ah?" The old man's sudden change of tone stunned Chen Zixuan, who originally looked a little ashamed of his indecision. Then he turned his head in a daze and met the old man's face full of smiles, which were as bright as chrysanthemums.

Unconsciously, drops of cold sweat were visibly flowing out of his forehead.

"Don't be so nervous, Xiao Chen~ Business between you and me is business, communication is communication. Speaking of which, the educational video of the teacher Takizawa Xala you mentioned a few days ago is indeed suitable for all ages as you said~ However, after my personal 'screening' and 'judgment', it is not suitable for my son and grandson to watch together in a room as you said. If I hadn't reviewed the video myself after finding it, I might have really put on a show that would ruin my reputation in front of my children and grandchildren~"

The old man continued to maintain his amiable smile, and he looked just like the elder in Chen Zixuan's family who was full of kindness to the younger generations. However, his kindness made Chen Zixuan, whose back was soaked with sweat without him noticing, immediately lower his head, which was stunned by the old man's words.

"I'm so... so sorry! At that time, I just couldn't explain it to you... I didn't... I didn't expect you to..."

"It's okay, it's okay. I'm just curious. But I've made a note of your lying to me. Xiao Chen, to express your apology, can you recommend a few other teachers to me, an old man over fifty, to broaden my horizons?"

[...What's going on with this sudden change of tone!?] After hearing what the old man said, Chen Zixuan, who was still bending over to apologize, immediately raised his head again, and at the same time, his eyes were filled with surprise!

"Don't look at me like that, Xiao Chen. Don't look at me because I'm old. It's because of my age that I think there are some things that I should experience and appreciate. Last time, when I went to some places where I needed to socialize to discuss business with a few old guys like me, facing a few young girls in their twenties, I was the last one of the old guys to come out of the box. Well, to put it more politely, I am still strong, right? So, show me the magnetic link that you have treasured in your computer for a long time, young man. Let me, an old guy who will become powerless in this area in a few years, have a taste of something new in the last few years of my life."

"..."

Chapter 371 Turning Point

The bidding project in the new district at this auction was naturally won by Jingtian City Investment Group. There is nothing worth saying about this. After all, they are the top real estate developer in the city. With such strong financial resources, how could other small companies possibly compete with them?

However, Chen Zixuan, who witnessed all this, did not feel anything to be happy about.

After all, at the beginning he just wanted to get the transportation contract for the construction materials of the land in the new district that was bought by Jingtian City Investment Group. He never expected that the other party would directly throw him an acquisition contract after agreeing to this matter.

So, once his, or his uncle's, transportation company is acquired by Jingtian Group, a giant in the city or even in the entire province, will it be beneficial to the transportation company itself?

The answer is obvious. There must be some benefits to riding on such a luxurious supercar of Jingtian Group~ and it is not small! Even after Chen Zixuan informed the staff in his transportation company of this news, most of them voted in favor of the acquisition.

Chen Zixuan's uncle did not express any objection to this matter. Perhaps if one really wanted to find a flaw in the company's acquisition, it would probably be that Chen Zixuan, who had worked so hard to get to the top position in the company, might become a young worker again because of the next contract from Jingtian Group?

Well, a worker of a slightly higher level!

Although, nominally, the other party still wants him to be the general manager of the transportation company...

"Have you thought about it?"

Once again, he came to the office of Mr. Qiu, the person in charge of Jingtian City Investment Group. This time, Chen Zixuan seemed unusually silent. He was no longer as shameless as he was when he waited at the door of Jingtian Group more than a month ago to ask for the contract from the boss.

Sitting opposite the old man in his fifties, all that was left on his face was lingering hesitation.

"I know it's hard for a person to let go of power after he has gained it, especially when the person who has gained it is still very young. But Xiao Chen, I also hope you can understand that many times, once you miss an opportunity, there may never be another opportunity for you to wait for. I talked to you about this the last time we met. When I was young, I was just a salesman running orders for wholesalers in a steel factory. I was able to build the company to what it is today only because I was able to seize opportunities."

Seeing that Chen Zixuan in front of him seemed to have a knot in his heart that he couldn't let go, Mr. Qiu, who was sitting opposite Chen Zixuan and put the acquisition contract that he had shown Chen Zixuan before in front of Chen Zixuan again, couldn't help but patiently enlighten this young man who was considered his junior.

"... I know, Mr. Qiu. I understand without you having to tell me... I just... I just think this matter seems a bit sudden... It's only a few days before the acquisition contract is signed... Maybe it's really like what you said, I'm just too young..."

Faced with the old man's kind advice, the hesitant Chen Zixuan finally spoke, but when he spoke he still did not give an answer whether he agreed to the acquisition contract in front of him. After all, as a young man who still has a month or two to go before he turns 23, a small hurdle in his life, this acquisition contract worth almost tens of millions is indeed not something he can decide, even if his uncle has delegated this power to him.

However, it didn't matter that he still seemed hesitant. Mr. Qiu, who was sitting opposite him, obviously didn't have that much patience. After hearing his implicit reason for hesitation, he didn't give her more time to think. His aging body suddenly leaned forward slightly, and a wrinkled hand stretched out, pressed the contract on the table and pushed it in the direction of Chen Zixuan, obviously wanting to faithfully implement the wise words he had just told Chen Zixuan: 'Opportunity won't wait for anyone'.

"So, what's your choice?"

"..."

Hesitant, with that obvious hesitation still maintained on his face, Chen Zixuan looked a little dazed as he looked at the contract that was pushed in front of him. His eyes seemed very distracted, or rather than saying that he was hesitant looking at the contract, it would be better to say that he was simply lost in thought because of hesitation.

Finally, after a few seconds, Chen Zixuan, who was sitting opposite Mr. Qiu with a dazed look on his face, stretched out his hand and took the acquisition contract of Jingtian City Investment Group.

Then, under the slightly satisfied gaze of Mr. Qiu, he frowned and pursed his lips without thinking and began to quickly fill in all the relevant information about the acquisition marked on the thin contract paper.

Until, he was about to sign his name as the company's agent on behalf of his uncle who was far away in Hubei at the final signing point of the contract!

"Hey, hey, hey?! Little sister, you can't go in here. This is our chairman's office!"

Boom!

"Wait a moment!"

A voice suddenly came from outside the door, interrupting Chen Zixuan's writing action. He had just finished writing the word "Chen" in his name and was about to write the remaining two words with the pen.

Chen Zixuan was very familiar with this voice. Or rather, in the past year or so, he had become very familiar with the owner of this voice which seemed a little childish but more of a weird voice.

If you are more familiar with it, you will have to study some things about how to give birth to a child, or how the other person should call "Yiku" and "Yamedie", two common words in a certain country, so that you can vividly express the happiness that he or she has and let yourself be happy with him or her!

That's right! This person is the black lady who should have been in Hangzhou these past two days, holding [computer accessories] and teasing and fighting with Zhou Yaxue, the busty girl with glasses, in the deserted streets and alleys of Suzhou and Hangzhou!

"Hei... Heizi? Why are you back?"

"Humph! If Kuroko doesn't come back in time, you'll have to sell Kuroko's company to someone else, right?"

It can be said that Miss Heizi almost broke into the room. When she saw Chen Zixuan turning around and looking at her, her face immediately showed a look of being very unhappy with a man.

What she said was even more shocking. Not only did she scare Chen Zixuan, who was surprised by her sudden intrusion and arrival, but even Mr. Qiu, the boss of Jingtian Group, who had been sitting opposite Chen Zixuan and watching Chen Zixuan sign the contract calmly, was slightly stunned.

"What did you say? You...your company? Are you sure? No...no...when did my uncle's transportation company become yours?"

Chapter 372: Xiao Chen, have you ever dressed as a woman?

Looking at the two men, one old and one young, who were looking at her with confused expressions in the office, Miss Heizi, with an unhappy look on her face, did not explain much to them.

He took two steps at a time and walked forward, took out a paper document made of A4 paper from a portable handbag in his hand, and slapped it on the mahogany desk between Chen Zixuan and Mr. Qiu, which also contained the purchase contract.

Then he returned to his previous unhappy look on his face, hugging his hands in front of his chest and puffing his cheeks like a child who was mad at an adult because something didn't go his way. He just stood beside Chen Zixuan with his head turned away without even looking at him.
