Chapter 282: 210. A phone call_2
She poured herself a cup of coffee, dropped in half a sugar cube, and poured a spoonful of milk from the milk jug. The silver spoon made a "ding ding" sound as the pitch-black and creamy white colors gradually blended and twirled into a smooth and soft brown.
This technique, she had learned from the boss’s closest partner, Zhou Sinin.
After everything was ready, He Ying carried the cup of coffee to the office door and gently knocked twice with her middle finger.
"Come in."
The man’s deep voice reached her ears.
He Ying pushed open the door, straightened her back, and walked in, placing the cup of coffee and yogurt in front of the boss’s desk, smiling as she spoke.
"I’m sorry, Mr. Lu, I came back to see if you needed any help. I heard you were on the phone..."
She had heard the phone call, and although she did not quite understand it, she had to subtly inform him that she had heard.
Because in front of Mr. Lu, absolute loyalty and honesty were the best options.
No matter what, she was no longer her past self.
In the past period of time, as the number one assistant at Golden Stone Media and with experience as the president of the Student Union, maintaining quite a good relationship with university leaders, He Ying was responsible for the reception and explanation of projects, following her boss into numerous government courtyards.
Under Mr. Lu’s guidance, her image and demeanor steadily improved, and under the matchmaking of Nanhu University’s authorities, she had made appearances at the High-tech District Committee, the District Development and Reform Committee, and the High-tech District Youth Committee.
Bearing the banner of a typical case of mass entrepreneurship and innovation, guiding and promoting the combination of entrepreneurship incubation with high education institutions and technology transfers, perfecting the technology support services, several government departments sent relatively high-level leaders to meet them.
And in this process, Mr. Lu could be said to have "spoken impressively, astonishing all around," as a startup star of Nanhu University, he gave the university a lot of prestige.
He Ying accompanied him almost the entire way, inseparable from Lu Jincheng, standing under the limelight as the center of attention, earning ample vanity.
She wore a white outfit, a smile gracing her cheeks.
Together with Mr. Lu, they entered the Youth League Committee, the Development and Reform Committee, the District Committee, lighting up PPTs, using the remote control, explaining new media theories that had the leaders nodding in approval.
Even one day, Secretary Hua of Jiangcheng City Youth League Committee shook her hand warmly and praised her several times.
That was Secretary Hua Shiyuan!
Years ago, when she first became the president of the Student Union, she couldn’t have imagined meeting such an important figure.
In the end, Nanhu University’s Golden Stone project successfully secured relevant favorable policies, not only achieving tax relief for the first three years but even spurring the development of the entire Nanhu Industrial Park.
The lead influencers of the company had a terrifying ability to attract money; the saved taxes alone amounted to an astonishing number.
Under the momentum of the "lead goose" effect, the District Committee decided to hasten the implementation of the three-year action plan for the innovation-driven development of emerging industries and to establish a batch of demonstration bases using Nanhu Industrial Park as a pilot, guiding social capital to support mass entrepreneurship.
Meanwhile, at the meeting, He Ying also heard some things she didn’t quite understand, but had a vague feeling that her boss seemed to be strategizing for something.
For instance, in promoting commercial banks to establish market-based, long-term collaboration with entrepreneurial institutions under the premise of lawful compliance and risk isolation.
Further lowering the threshold for commercial insurance funds entering venture investment, promoting the development of new models like investment-loan linkage, investment-insurance linkage, and investment-bond linkage, and continuously increasing financial support for entrepreneurial and innovative enterprises.
Her heart was brimming with a sense of achievement, satisfaction, and joy—nearly to the point of bursting.
Lu Jincheng sat in the office chair, his face bearing a hint of tipsy flush. He didn’t even glance at the yogurt beside him but took up the coffee and sipped from it.
"Thank you."
His gaze then casually swept over He Ying, and he unexpectedly added, "You look quite nice today."
He turned away from her, swivelling his chair to gaze out the window at the night sky.
The man’s eyes appeared weary, and there seemed to be a trace of bloodshot in his pupils, but as he looked down over Nanhu Industrial Park, he was enshrouded in an aura that seemed to oversee all under him.
Mr. Lu was going out for a social engagement this evening, dressed in a white shirt and cashmere vest, and he wore a pair of lensless black-framed glasses, especially to look mature and distinguished. His athletic body looked upright and vigorous under the well-fitting shirt, his sharp features even more so behind the frames.
He Ying simply watched his profile, suddenly at a loss for what to say.
"Mr. Lu, you seem a bit tired..."
"I am, a little."
Lu Jincheng nodded.
"Dealing with those people lately has really been tiring."
"But... it should be easier from now on, right? We’ve got the policies, and the loans have been approved, so we can really get going."
He Ying took two steps forward, her tone full of concern.
The weakest link in starting from scratch was actually public relations.
Under Mr. Lu’s efforts, the gap was gradually filled.
Jianghu is a beaded curtain.
Big and small characters are the beads, large transactions and small benefits are the strings connecting them.
Starting with Huang Hu, Lu Jincheng gradually unfolded this beaded curtain.
"What do I have scheduled for tomorrow?"
Lu Jincheng rubbed his eyes and asked subconsciously.
"You have two classes in the morning, but you can skip them to sleep in a bit. At noon, I’ve booked a restaurant in Hankou. Xie Yujia and the factory owner both live nearby. At four in the afternoon, you have training for the White Horse Cup, with Teacher Guo instructing in classroom 505 of the comprehensive building. There’s nothing planned for the evening."
He Ying snapped back to reality, shifted her gaze away from her boss, opened the notes on her phone, and ran through the list one by one.
"Mr. Lu, why don’t you go back and rest? Leave any remaining work to me."
"Let’s call it a day; you can drive me back. I can’t drive right now anyway."
Lu Jincheng turned his head, seemingly quite satisfied with He Ying’s orderly performance, and gave her a smile.
"Okay."
The Buick business car sped through the evening breeze.
Being an assistant was truly a position that trained a person; even He Ying’s originally mediocre driving skills had become significantly steadier.
...
The next day at noon, outside a certain restaurant in Hankou.
"Mr. Lu, long time no see~"
Before the car even arrived, from a distance, Lu Jincheng was immediately captivated by Xie Yujia’s attire.
She waved at the business car with a face brimming with a tranquil and joyous smile. Her eyes sparkled with happiness, as if anyone who saw her couldn’t help but feel cheerful, her charisma utterly infectious.
Her beauty was dignified, intellectual, elegant, and gentle.
Most representative of all, as a former Taobao Girl, she not only stood up to high-definition cameras but also had a presence that commanded large events.
Looking at Xie Yujia’s face, the contours were round and full, without a single sharp edge. Although round, there was no excess flesh; the lines were perfect, not detracting from her sense of class.
Adding to this was her layered outfit for the day, a camel-colored long wool coat draped to the hem of her waist, paired with a light-colored turtleneck sweater and a pair of Martens boots, creating an even more harmonious and unified ensemble.
"This is Mr. Dan Qili, the owner of the S-grade factory I mentioned."
"This is our Mr. Lu, the final decision on the acquisition will be made by him." ƒгeewebnovёl_com
As soon as she got out of the car, Xie Yujia stepped up to Lu Jincheng’s side and introduced him generously.
"Hello, hello."
The two shook hands, sized each other up with a smile, and walked toward the private room with outstretched hands.
After the customary toasting and casual chatter, the conversation quickly turned to the main topic.
"Mr. Lu, do you think the price can be raised a bit more?"
Dan Qili had intended to sell, but regrettably, Xie Yujia had driven such a hard bargain that there was no profit left.
He had no choice but to try his luck with the person in charge.
"Actually, I have some opinions about the factory too."
Lu Jincheng held his forehead and adopted a more sincere tone, turning to look at Dan Qili.
"I can raise the price based on what we’ve negotiated, but you’ll need to relocate your factory to Jiangcheng City."
"Ah?"
Dan Qili was taken aback.
He had never considered this possibility.
"By comparison, Jiangcheng City has a much cheaper overall labor force, about 30% lower, as well as lower land costs, and it avoids the stricter environmental regulations of coastal cities."
"Trees die when they are moved, but people live when they move. Why not give it a try?"
