Volume 8 Final Chapter Chapter 1180 Seeking Cooperation
Yi Qianxi was very dissatisfied, "You should be more careful, how can you insult your own cousin like this?"
Nan Yi rubbed his hands and said nonchalantly, "You are the one with a brain disease. You are old and you still come to ask for comfort after a breakup. Besides, how many times has this happened? You are not tired of it, but I am. If there is nothing else, just hurry up."
"I won't leave. I'll come here for dinner today."
"what ever."
Nan Yi ignored Yi Qianxi and continued to eat his tank worm.
Yi Qianxi didn't say anything either. She started eating melon seeds one after another. When she was bored, she noticed the can above her head.
"A soul-calling banner?"
"Yes, recruit children that you have no chance to develop. We just recruited two today. One is called Ergazi and the other is called Sanlengzi."
"In the morning, I carried a chamber pot to buy fried dough sticks. After emptying the chamber pot, I ate them without washing my hands. My mouth is full of shit."
"Oh, you've filmed a drama about life in the hutongs, so you know everything." Nan Yi said, and deliberately glanced at the glass bowl containing the melon seeds, "I bought the melon seeds this morning, and I had nothing to put them in, so I had to use the chamber pot. Don't worry, this is a new chamber pot, bought less than three days ago."
"Cousin, in your previous life, you were the stepping stone in my toilet. I stepped on you too many times, so I'm here to take revenge in this life."
"Since you are my cousin, I won't argue with you. Otherwise, I would scold you to death. I have never been defeated by anyone in an argument." Nan Yi said with disdain.
"I'm too lazy to argue with you. Someone asked me to bring you a message. The favor fell on her niece."
Nan Yi chuckled, "You're afraid that I won't return the favor, so you're asking for it."
"I mean."
"Oh, what's her niece's name?"
"Sichun."
"How do you want to pay it back?"
"Why don't you accept her as your apprentice?" Yi Qianxi said with sarcasm.
"The favor is not that big."
"Isn't it? Spare the third party."
"Stop talking nonsense." Nan Yi waved his hand and said, "Give that Sichun two choices. One is to sign with the Star Company and take roles in Wangbei Film and Television in the future. The other is to sign with my newly opened Shifu Film Company and split all income 70% and 30%. I will protect her, but she needs to take the initiative to cooperate with the opportunity."
"Master Films is still the best. Sichun is still a young girl with a lot of drive. Wangbei Films is like the state-owned enterprises of the past. You can see their retirement at a glance."
"Nonsense, which state-owned enterprise pays ordinary workers millions of yuan a year?" Nan Yi pointed at Yi Qianxi's nose, "Don't give me an advantage. If you were not my cousin, you would have to... forget it, I won't say anything unpleasant. You know it in your heart."
"You are my cousin after all. If you don't protect me, who else do you want to protect?" Yi Qianxi approached Nan Yi and said proudly.
"Go, go, go away, get out of the way." Nan Yi pushed Yi Qianxi away as if he was shooing away a fly. "Your face is full of wrinkles. If you look at them too much, you will have nightmares at night."
"Hate it, it's you who didn't let me get the injection." Yi Qianxi was very resentful.
"It would be great to age gracefully and naturally. Now you can play a mother, in the future you can play a grandmother, and in the future you can play an old lady. When you die, you can play a corpse in your true colors. You will never have to worry about not having roles to play in your life."
"Hmph, I won't argue with you." Yi Qianxi rubbed the skin at the corners of her eyes. "If I argue with you, my face will have more wrinkles."
…
At six o'clock in the evening, Chuiyangliu opened a small and dirty restaurant that made beef noodles.
It was lunchtime, and after waiting in line for a while, it was finally Nan Yi's and his group's turn. They ordered three extra bowls of noodles, fried chicken chops, a few side dishes, and a few bottles of beer, then sat down at the low table at the door.
"I come to this restaurant often. I think the food here is the best in the whole capital."
Dugu Jian said this as soon as he sat down, meaning that making an appointment here was not neglect, but a sign of the utmost sincerity.
Nan Yi: "When eating, you don't care about the size of the restaurant. The key is to look at the chef's skills. I usually fall in love with small restaurants. What's more, no matter which restaurant it is, there are one or two dishes that are particularly authentic."
"I love eating the sugar-coated cakes at the Big Buddha Temple. Two sugar-coated cakes with a bowl of soy milk, oh, that's really incurable." Xu Yunlei said jokingly.
The three of them chatted for a while about snacks and cheap restaurants, and continued talking while the food was served.
Only after finishing the extra portion of noodles did Dugu Jian get to the point, "Brother Nan, Pangshi has my interests."
Nan Yi could naturally understand what the other party was thinking about. "My ancestors spent a lot of money on the copyright, and I owed a lot of favors. To be honest, I think it is more valuable than the current Pangshi."
"We can discuss the value slowly. The main thing is whether Brother Nan is interested in it."
Nan Yi pretended to think for a moment, "Let that Jia... Jia what?"
"Jia Zhouguo."
"Oh, let Jia Zhouguo go talk to Ye Jian. Jian, I have something to say first. Business is business, and we have to haggle over every penny. I will not participate in the subsequent talks. Everything should be conducted according to normal business negotiations."
Dugu Jian nodded and picked up the plastic cup on the table.
A clink of glasses is a way of reaching a preliminary agreement, and the rest is just idle chat. When you've talked enough, each person goes their separate ways.
Xu Yunlei and Nan Yi were walking together, and halfway along the way, he said to Nan Yi: "Brother Nan, do you really want to cooperate with Dugu Jian?"
"Yunlei, I know what's going on. This is a normal business cooperation, nothing else. Copyright is a good business. If you are interested, send someone to be a shareholder. I will give you 10% of my shares out of the four million."
Xu Yunlei thought for a moment and said, "Five million, that's too little. I'd feel embarrassed."
"You are such a smart kid."
"I learned all of this from Brother Nan." Xu Yunlei said politely with a smile.
Nan Yi shook his head. "It's still early. Let's play StarCraft. I'll let you develop for half an hour."
"Haha, Brother Nan, how long have you not played? I was invincible in the Zerg fast attack on Battle.net. I even took down Ogogo."
"You are bragging without thinking, trying to push yourself into the world champion's nest. Even if it is a competition funded by both of us, I am embarrassed to give you the third place. It's too shameful."
"Hey, Brother Nan, don't push me. I'll sign up for this year's WCG tomorrow."
"If you don't mind being embarrassed, report it."
The two argued for a while, and then played in the Internet cafe for three hours. Their levels were similar, and the game depended on micro-management and tactics, with both sides winning and losing.
The next day, Nan Yi and Ye Qi met and talked about increasing the number of shareholders and cooperating with Pangshi. They explained the bottom line and told them where to invite the negotiators.
Then I went to the Lihuamao Live to inquire about the development progress and explain the share issue to Wu Xiaoxiong.
For the next two days, Nan Yi stayed in school for the first time ever, writing and filling out various application forms.
The paper has been reviewed, and he wants to remove the word "sub-sub" from it, which requires scientific research results and teaching performance. The latter is easy, as he is strong in it, and he can get it done after reviewing it a few times in a restaurant. Scientific research results are a bit more troublesome, and there is a process, and he must first apply for project funding.
The research project that Nan Yi applied for was in the field he was most familiar with, "rural collective economy." He planned to take advantage of the western development drive, select a poor village in the west, explore an economic model centered on planting that could spread to other related fields, and create a replicable project.
After this project is successful, Nan Yi plans to write an economic book entitled "Economics of Socialist Small Villages". To be an expert, he must have several books to support himself, otherwise he will not be reliable.
I made an application form, filled in the amount of two million, and emailed it to Ren Xia. I immediately ran to her office and asked her to help me polish it. But there was nothing I could do as I was not good at writing eight-legged essays.
"Nan Yi, you are so nice."
Ren Xia was happy to help, but she couldn't help but complain.
"Hehehe, Mr. Ren, don't worry, I'll come to your house tonight to show my appreciation."
"Your intention is meaningless. If you are really sincere, make your intention meaningful."
"According to you, my meaning has to be very interesting to be interesting?"
"You are so boring. When did I ever ask for your opinion? You are so nice. Just give Qiqi some thanks."
Nan Yi pretended to be shy, "I can't do anything about Qiqi. Liu Zhen is very strict and doesn't allow me to take a concubine."
"Qiqi grew up under your care. How dare you play such a joke on your niece?" Ren Xia said angrily.
"Okay, it's my fault. Please help me correct it quickly. Print a copy for yourself after you're done, so I don't have to make another trip."
According to the process, Nan Yi's application form also has to go through Ren Xia.
"You have no respect for your superiors. How can you talk to your superiors? If you don't give me some gifts, be careful that I won't approve them."
"I'll drive a Rolls-Royce over tomorrow and see if you dare to accept it."
"Go, go, go, go quickly, don't show off here." Ren Xia coaxed her and said, "Don't spoil Qiqi too much. As an intern, she earns more a month than me and her father combined. It's not decent."
"I didn't give Qiqi any preferential treatment in terms of money. She just happened to catch the good time when there was no problem selling the house. I am thinking of changing her position. A job that is too easy is not conducive to her growth."
"You should arrange a difficult job for Qiqi. It's too comfortable. She will think that society is so simple."
Nan Yi nodded, "I will send Qiqi to the demolition company in a few days and let her be responsible for demolition persuasion work. Let me make it clear in advance, if she is beaten by the demolition households, don't blame me."
"Being beaten only means that she didn't do her job well. She deserves it. Just don't beat her too hard." Ren Xia said indifferently.
"You are willing to give it up, but I am not. I have liked this girl since she was a child. Don't worry, I will pave a way for her."
"I feel relieved when you are here. When Wuwei is on home leave, let the two of you meet again. If there is no chemistry, forget it. I can make other arrangements for Qiqi."
"I think it's better to forget it. Being a military wife is not easy. It requires too much sacrifice. I can't bear to see Qiqi suffer. As for you, don't make random arrangements. Qiqi is a very opinionated girl. Wait for two years and see. If things don't work out, she can find a suitable husband herself."
Ren Xia pushed away the keyboard, picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip of water. "It's because this girl is so opinionated that I'm worried. She liked reading romance novels when she was in junior high school. Who knows how many love stories are in her head? If she finds someone with inferior conditions, what should I do in the future?"
"I say, Mr. Ren, you are underestimating Qiqi. She has been surrounded by excellent people since she was a child, not good-for-nothings. She has been influenced by them, so her vision is very high. People with poor family conditions, even if they are geniuses, have limited vision, and Qiqi is unlikely to be attracted to them. Even if she is attracted to them, it only means that she wants to find a husband that she can control."
Ren Xia was surprised and asked, "Is Qiqi as smart as you say?"
"Why, her father is someone else, do you suspect genetic inheritance?"
"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll tear your mouth apart."
"Then why are you worrying so much? You and your Chief Zheng have different genes. Don't worry, just help me get the money approved as soon as possible, or it will be too late."
"Don't just look at me. You should also make an effort and tell the institute that you are willing to supervise graduate students. If the institute approves your project without any students, people will gossip about you."
"Okay, I'll go to the academy and petition. Three to five is fine. As long as the academy dares to arrange it, I can get 80 part-time students (part-time students do not take up enrollment quotas)."
Ren Xia waved her hands and said impatiently: "You can't spit out ivory from a dog's mouth. Hurry up and leave."
…
After finishing the project application, Nan Yi had some free time again. He had a class on Saturday and he had another six and a half days of free time.
Yan Zhenhua sent a message, and the basic situation of Shenfu was found out. He also heard some gossip about Fan Chengzhang and Fan Lihui: he started by setting up a private coal washing plant and bought the marginal coal area of Shenfu Energy Group. The locals called him "the coal lord", and there was a rumor circulating in the local area that Fan Chengzhang or Fan Lihui gave away Land Rover as a gift.
Nan Yi’s reply was “dig deeper”.
If Fan Chengzhang was just mining and selling coal, Nan Yi believed that he must be rich, but with the nickname "Prince", he probably had his hands in the distribution of local coal resources, which could be a big deal. If Fan Chengzhang was very ambitious and wanted to engage in diversified operations, it is very likely that he would be strong on the outside but weak on the inside, and if he took stock, he would find a lot of bad debts.
It is also possible that they are in conflict with local power capital, and that people are already digging a hole to bury both father and son.
No matter which one it is, if they had no contact before and are coming to recognize their children now, their motives would not be pure.
Nan Yi has already decided in his heart that the rumor that Fan Chengzhang is going to die is nonsense. What the other party wants is to lure Fan Hongdou over and persuade her with reason, coercion or inducement, or even directly knock her out and send her to bed with someone. It is not impossible. A single, beautiful and wealthy woman, how tempting.
"Fan Chengzhang, ah Fan Chengzhang, you'd better behave like a father, otherwise, I'm sorry."
Melbourne.
On the sofa in the living room of a house, Fan Qianye was hugging a woman and kissing her.
Suddenly, his laptop beeped, but he ignored it and continued his actions. His female companion pushed him away and said, "Chizoba, you read the email first, I'm going to take a shower."
"OK."
Fan Qianye let go of his female companion, picked up a half-smoked cigar on the coffee table and lit it. He rubbed his finger on the touch screen to light it up, clicked on the email, and just by reading the first line he knew who the email was from.
"Nan Yi, Uncle Nan, I haven't heard from you for a long time, you bastard, you exiled me to Melbourne."
Fan Qianye cursed a few times and continued reading emails.
Although he was a little dissatisfied with being sent to Melbourne when he was young, his resentment was not too great. After all, he had good food and drink here and had not suffered any hardship.
However, when he finished reading the email, resentment and anger rose from the bottom of his heart. He picked up the ashtray and smashed it on the floor. "You bastard, you really are a bastard. You remember us now? Why don't you die earlier?"
After venting for a while, he looked at the number in the body of the email, dialed the number, and made a call.
"Hey, what do you want me to do?"
On the other side, Nan Yi smiled faintly, "Be polite when speaking to me, I don't owe you anything, on the contrary, everything you have today can be said to be given to you by me."
Fan Qianye paused, "Okay, Uncle Nan, what do you want me to do."
"Return to China in the name of investment, go to the Divine Palace to contact Fan Chengzhang, and find out his true situation from the front. It would be best if you come back in the name of a big investor. You are a smart person, so you don't need me to teach you how to do it, right?"
"Is it necessary to go through so much trouble? I might as well find two people to kill him."
"Don't talk nonsense. China is not the Australian desert. If you kill someone and bury his body, you may not be able to find it even after a hundred years. He is your biological father. I don't care how far you want to go, but you must use legal means. Let me see what skills you have learned in Melbourne. If you perform well, I will give you a bigger stage."
"I'll be back after I make the arrangements."
"Okay, bye."
A day later, when Nan Yi just got up, Ge Cuizhu called him. Before he could say anything, Ge Cuizhu said anxiously, "The cat is dead. It has kidney failure. The results just came out."
Nan Yi rubbed his eyes and asked, "What product was tested?"
“Cat food.”
"Where is Shi Guofeng? Pull him in."
"etc."
Within two minutes, Nan Yi heard Shi Guofeng's tired voice, "Mr. Nan."
"Shi Guofeng, you've been living too comfortably, haven't you? In March, I asked you to test all the products of the group, and you told me that everything was fine. What's going on now?"
Shi Guofeng was silent for a while, then said angrily: "Mr. Nan, the situation is more complicated now than before. Not everyone will listen to my orders. Some people pretend to obey but actually disobey."
"I'm wrong to blame you. I'll deal with this issue later. Let's talk about the current situation first. Do you have detailed records of the whereabouts of the same batch of products?"
"Yes, they are the products that were recently shipped. About 70% of them are easy to recall, and the remaining 30% are more troublesome. 20% were shipped to the United States, half to France, and the remaining half are in China."
"Reached the shore?"
"not yet."
Nan Yi breathed a sigh of relief. "If there is none, it's easy. All of them will be secretly recalled and destroyed. Guofeng, Hongdou will be the one to worry about the affairs of the reclamation group from now on. I'm quitting, and Auntie has also quit. Let's keep quiet."
"I'm so sorry."
"Let's investigate thoroughly. Melamine is new to others, but it's not new to the Kenzhi Group. Auntie has been emphasizing this for many years. We must guard against it and strictly control it. No matter who it is, we must investigate it thoroughly. I will ask someone to coordinate with the relationship over there."
"Understood."
"You back off."
After Shi Guofeng left, Nan Yi asked, "Aunt, what do you think?"
"Nan Yi, I just want to get dividends every year. I don't want to interfere in the affairs of the Reclamation Group anymore. The Wencui Group is developing very well. You should pay more attention to this side."
Wencui Group was the group company established by Nan Yi and Ge Cuizhu when they separated some businesses from the Kenzhi Group. Its subsidiaries include the Cowherd and Weaver Girl Flowers, Special Vegetables Company, Zhuxian Company, and Zui Aquatic Products Company.
Among them, Zhuxian Company, which operates landscaping, can generate good profits every year. After all, it is connected with greening projects in local cities, and the average customer price and total contract amount are considerable. The only worry is that the payment period is a bit long and the probability of bad debts is not low.
"Aunt, you still have to say something, otherwise the dividends in the future may not be secure. Keep talking about reducing the holdings. I'll let Hongdou come to you to discuss the amount of reduction."
"Okay, Nan Yi, we may have made a bad move at the beginning."
"Aunt, don't review it. We have to take this step. The Reclamation Group is too big and it will attract the wind. You should go dancing. Your dance partner must be waiting anxiously. The most beautiful thing is the sunset, warm and calm." Nan Yi hummed a few lines, "If Aunt is fashionable, I will be in charge of the wine."
"Suckling, it's better for you to come and see me a few more times." Ge Cuizhu hesitated for a while and said, "You should go back to the village. I'm afraid Yaodong won't have much time left."
"Aunt, Uncle Yaodong has a son to take care of him. There's no need for me, your cheap nephew, to be so pushy."
"Jiang Xiaodong, it would be great if he could be counted on."
"Xian, Xian Xiaodong, this name, wow, it would make Uncle Yaodong laugh even when he's asleep."
"You, please give Yaodong some face." Ge Cuizhu scolded, "Auntie knows that you are magnanimous. Go and take a look. Don't let Yaodong leave with regrets."
"I'll call a few medical experts over to take a look."
"That's fine."
After hanging up the phone, Nan Yi pondered for a while, sent an email to Nan Youqiong about melamine, and copied it to Fan Hongdou.
In March, a number of pet deaths occurred in the United States. After investigation, it was found that the common point among them was that they ate food produced by Menu Foods between December 3, 2006 and March 6, 2007. The finger was pointed at the raw materials.
The FDA was very alert and notified more than 150 brands to launch a recall the next day. The recall involved more than 5,600 varieties and more than 60 million bags of pet food. "EASYBOY!" was also involved.
The FDA did not wait to find out the cause before deciding whether to recall the products. Instead, it immediately recalled the products unconditionally. Although many brands may not have any problems at all, the FDA still decided to recall the products. While launching the product recall, the FDA also launched a tracking down of the culprit and finally discovered that the culprit was actually melamine.
After finding out the culprit, Americans were stunned because melamine is an industrial product and it is impossible for it to appear in pet food.
As the research deepened, this idea was quickly refuted. Through raw material testing, the FDA found that wheat gluten powder and rice concentrated protein powder contained different concentrations of melamine, and their suppliers were two domestic biotechnology companies.
At that time, the news media in the United States reported that they suspected that the raw material warehouses of the two companies were not properly supervised, resulting in the rat poison contamination. However, an "insider" could not stand it and secretly revealed to the American media that this was intentional addition, causing an uproar in the American media.
The Nan family collected the information and found that the person who knew the news was most likely a competitor of one of the two companies. It must be said that this clever trick was used in the right place. After Nan Youqiong received the news, he adjusted the layout of Shennong Nanliang in China and established new raw material production plants in Southeast Asia and South America to avoid an uncontrollable situation.
Nan Yi could only watch Nan Youqiong's arrangements and could not raise any objections at all. Nan Youqiong's approach was correct, so how could he object?
From then on, he could only watch Shennong Nanliang being split up into China and others, and a future arrangement was made to have one-way input to China and stop output at any time.
Compared with Nan Youqiong's calm and rational thinking, Nan Yi wants to act impulsively. He plans to establish a company specializing in the production of dairy products in his private name, with its main market positioning in Europe and the United States.
