Chapter 174 Old Friends

the company.

The front desk called to inform me that an old friend had come to visit, saying his surname was Chen.

We met in the reception room.

It was actually Chen Yuanyuan.

"It's been a long time since we last met, Mr. Chen."

"Mr. Shen, you're too kind. Please just call me Yuanyuan."

Little Wang Yan was there too, her eyes darting back and forth between the two of us.

"I wonder why Yuanyuan suddenly came to ZG?"

Chen Yuanyuan said with a resentful look, "Shen is truly heartless. After stirring up trouble in Liancheng, he's come to the provincial capital. Since he's here, why didn't he inform me? We could have cooperated more deeply."

"Yuanyuan, you're joking. You're representing the Chen family, and I'm representing the Zhou family. How can we cooperate?"

"Hehe, in business, everyone should be friendly and make money together. If you want to go public, what you lack are three things: channels, market, and capital. The Chen family happens to have all of those."

"Has ZG been under your constant scrutiny?"

Chen Yuanyuan: "There are 19 companies in the provincial capital planning to go public this year, and your company, ZG, is not the biggest ripple. However, before you came, this was the Zhou family's company. The Zhou family has been in the provincial capital for many years, and their business has always been lukewarm. Suddenly, they changed their style and began to aggressively seize the market. We noticed something was wrong. After some investigation, when we saw that NT had invested, I knew that President Shen had arrived."

Me: "Mr. Chen, what advice do you have?"

A glint of light flashed in Chen Yuanyuan's eyes: "The Chen family has invested in quite a few chain supermarkets, especially in other cities. I wonder if President Shen would be interested in starting his own supermarket chain?"

I shook my head: "I'm afraid I'm willing but unable to do that."

"Why? Doesn't President Shen want to expand and strengthen the company?"

"First, there's funding; second, there's manpower. Just dealing with China is already keeping me struggling."

My refusal didn't surprise Chen Yuanyuan. If I could be led by the nose by her with just a few words, I wouldn't be Shen Tianyi.

"In that case, how about we talk about financing?"

I stretched out one hand and said, "Please come in, and feel free to take a look around."

Chen Yuanyuan stood up very gracefully and walked out of the reception room.

This woman is extraordinary.

She was kept by Chen Hangtian during high school, and this continued from college to her job.

The Chen family withdrew from Liancheng, and without hesitation abandoned her fiancé, she followed the Chen family to the provincial capital.

After years of perseverance, she actually made it to the core level.

To endure.

Talent.

Scheming.

They are all top-notch.

Su Hang still lusted after her body, but now that he realizes it, he probably saw her as a stepping stone, a temporary pleasure. If the Chen family hadn't withdrawn, Su Hang would probably have been controlled by Chen Yuanyuan for the rest of his life.

A pet with whom you have had a physical relationship will not have any negative impact on you.

If this pet gains power and influence, it will eventually acquire authority.

Those who have ever tasted meat will all become her devoted followers.

Wu Lei, Wu Changsha, Chen Hangtian, Su Hang

I still feel scared when I think about it.

Now that I've just arrived in the provincial capital, she's haunted me, constantly coming back to find me, all because she's thinking about that night.

Intelligent command center.

A huge screen displays various information.

"This is the 24-hour real-time tracking trajectory of the supply chain logistics delivery vehicles."

"This is the warehouse monitoring system, showing inbound and outbound shipments."

"This is the inventory monitoring of more than 20 supermarkets. When the inventory reaches the warning line, the computer will automatically place an order, and the warehouse will accept the order and arrange delivery."

"Here are the sales figures for each supermarket and our accounts receivable. Some merchants use our payment account directly, and we settle accounts with them on a daily or weekly basis. This benefits the supermarkets by increasing profits and reducing risks."

Chen Yuanyuan watched in amazement as I explained each point.

"President Shen, you are a genius. The person who developed this supply chain system is also a talent."

I smiled and said, "The code for this kind of software is all available on websites, and it's basically all open source. It just so happens that the supply chain and supermarkets are combined quite well."

Chen Yuanyuan: "President Shen, tell me, how can we cooperate?"

"We will be conducting our Series B funding round next month. In addition to supermarkets, we will also be entering the retail industry."

Could you elaborate?

"We haven't finalized the specific plan yet, but we're open to any retail business that involves cash transactions. I'll be building a full-chain distribution center in the provincial capital, covering pharmaceuticals, electronics, and general merchandise."

Chen Yuanyuan looked at me and said, "This is insane. If the IPO is successful, the Chen family's advantage over the Zhou family will be reversed in an instant."

"ZG is now under the Shen family name, as for its listing ownership..."

I won't continue.

"Would Mr. Shen have the time to have dinner with me tonight?"

"Excuse me, my cousin has an appointment with Pang Kai from the Market Supervision Administration tonight. Let's talk another day."

"Alright then. Mr. Shen has surprised me so much today. I'll go back and digest it properly, and give Mr. Shen a satisfactory answer later."

Chen Yuanyuan gave Wang Yan a meaningful look.

"no problem."

Chen Yuanyuan left.

Wang Yan: "Cousin, this slut exudes sexiness from the inside out, her eyes are always trying to seduce you!"

.....

Me: "Don't talk nonsense. She wields considerable power in the Chen family now, and she can make the final decisions on investments all by herself. This woman is very capable."

Wang Yan pouted: "Hmph. When Pang Kai arrives later, are you going to see him?"

"Of course I'll see him. I really want to thank him for introducing me to this talented person, Hu Chuyue. Have you prepared the shopping cards I asked you to get?"

"Yes, 10 tickets at 2 each, totaling 20."

Reception room.

Pang Kai sat down and drank tea.

"Director Pang, it's been a long time. I've made so many requests to you, and you've finally graced me with your presence today."

Pang Kai stood up and shook hands with me: "President Shen, as you know, it's very appropriate for me to come here now that Xiao Fei has withdrawn his shares."

I gestured for Pang Kai to sit down: "We're running a legitimate business. Besides, even if Xiao Fei is gone, Grandpa and Uncle Fan are still waiting for me to achieve results. We need to work even harder, don't we?"

Pang Kai: "If you say so, Mr. Shen, I'm relieved. I was just worried that some people might gossip."

"Yan Yan, bring me the tea I prepared for the leader."

Wang Yan brought over a bag of tea leaves.

"Director Pang, this is one of the many products in the ZG supply chain. It tastes pretty good. Take it home and test it yourself to see if it meets our bureau's standards."

"Hehe, okay."

Pang Kai: "By the way, have you met my friend Hu Chuyue, President Shen?"

"This is the second thing I'm reporting to you today. ZG has not only reached a financing agreement with President Hu, but I will also personally invest in President Hu's company, which will deepen our cooperation."

"Haha, great. Thank you so much, Mr. Shen, for your kind consideration."

Hu Chuyue and Pang Kai also had illicit dealings.

That makes some sense.

It's unacceptable that such a large-scale WeChat business hasn't faced official backlash.

Unless someone helps.
