Chapter 3458: Mission Preparation
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
“I have to say, our Director Lin sure has some clout.”On the way back, Ji Qingyan smiled and said:
“When Nuonuo goes to kindergarten in the future, I won’t have to worry about her being bullied.”
“Judging by the principal’s demeanor, they seem to understand human wisdom; they should be able to keep an extra eye on her.”
Ji Qingyan seemed to think of something and turned around to look at Lin Yi:
“What if your daughter gets bullied in kindergarten?”
“It depends on the situation, I guess.”
“Like if she gets pushed down or made to cry.”
“That’s pretty normal, isn’t it? Apologize, make amends, and move on.”
“What if your daughter is the one bullying someone else?”
“It’s the same, just have her apologize, but if someone gets hurt, not only do we have to cover the medical expenses, but we might both have to apologize in person.”
“True.” Ji Qingyan said:
“I thought that once she went to kindergarten, we’d have it easier, but each phase comes with its own set of problems—it seems there will always be something to worry about.”
“Certainly,” Lin Yi said:
“She will only bring you spiritual enjoyment and pleasure for a moment, and won’t provide any material support.”
“That’s really true,” Ji Qingyan said:
“If you asked me to list the benefits of having children, I couldn’t say any, but if you ask if I would want more, I definitely would.”
“Right, the heart doesn’t lie.”
Ring ring ring ——
Just then, Lin Yi’s phone rang; it was an unfamiliar number.
After answering, he heard the voice of Kroter speaking.
“Director Lin, do you have time now? I think we should meet.”
“We can talk over the phone.”
“Director Lin, we’ve recalled the problematic vehicles as agreed; shouldn’t the Lingyun Group’s announcement be withdrawn? Our collaboration should be able to proceed now, shouldn’t it?”
“Wait a second,” Lin Yi replied:
“What agreement? I never said recalling vehicles would mean withdrawing the announcement; that’s just wishful thinking on your part.”
“What did you say!”
Even over the phone, Kroter’s anger was palpable.
“Director Lin, what you’re doing lacks business integrity.”
“You’ve reached this position, so I believe you’re a smart person and know why I’m doing this. You were unfair first, with an arrogant attitude, so naturally, you’d face a market backlash. As for the future, let’s leave it to fate. There’s no need to call me anymore; there’s nothing for us to discuss.”
“We were indeed at fault at first, but is the Lingyun Group really willing to lose a partner like us?”
“It’s not a problem for me,” Lin Yi said with a smile:
“In business, focusing on feelings is your mistake; take care.”
Without giving Kroter another chance to speak, Lin Yi hung up the phone.
“Are you planning to keep confronting them to the bitter end?”
“There’s no such thing as a bitter end,” Lin Yi said nonchalantly:
“These days, whoever holds the core technology is king; doing business based on sentiments means you’re destined to be a scapegoat.”
“The best approach is to make it thorough, to pin them down so they can never get back up.”
“No wonder you’re President Ji, thinking just like me.”
“But there’s one point we can’t ignore; they’re under Volkswagen, the world’s number-one car company, so they still hold some influence.”
“We operate in different tracks. In the chip field, everyone has to watch how we move,” Lin Yi said:
“We represent the true high-tech sector, and the future is the era of artificial intelligence. However, engine technology has reached its peak, making significant breakthroughs difficult. In the future, they will be like a dying insect or a skinny camel, unable to achieve much until a huge technological transformation occurs.”
“I looked at the Lingyun Group’s financial report a few days ago; the actual profit isn’t as high as one would imagine.”
“A large part is used for research and development.”
“That much I know, but besides that, it still feels a little lacking.”
“Some are collaborative projects, with not much profit in reality,” Lin Yi said:
“And since the group isn’t publicly listed, naturally the profits aren’t as big as you’d imagine.”
“This only shows that your focus isn’t on money; if it was, doubling it wouldn’t be an issue.”
“Having enough to spend is all that matters; some things are more important than money.”
“I understand your point.”
The family of three didn’t go home; instead, they took Little Nuonuo to the play fortress and played until the afternoon before heading back.
In the days following, Lin Yi spent most of his time at home, helping Ji Qingyan ease a lot of the stress of taking care of their child.
Lin Yi wasn’t in a rush for tasks related to the New Profession.
The mission for Death Hill continued, and there was still no lead, which is why he hadn’t started a new system task.
About a week later, Little Nuonuo had already adapted to kindergarten life.
But neither he nor Ji Qingyan could leave for too long.
Once they were out of sight for too long, she would start crying loudly.
They weren’t in a rush, as it was still some time before September, planning to let her adapt gradually.
After taking some time off, Lin Yi resumed his work and drove to the Zhonghai Garrison Area.
He bought some things on the way to visit Mr. Yang.
“Why did you come by, kid?”
“I’m not busy lately, just came to check on you.”
“You are quite thoughtful, even bought me a box of tea,” Mr. Yang said with a hearty laugh:
“Much better than whole milk and apples.”
“How can you say that? It’s the thought that counts. Even though conditions are better now, we should still remember the bitter days to appreciate the sweet ones, and not stray from the people’s path.”
“Get out of here, you’re even lecturing me now,” Mr. Yang said:
“Don’t leave at noon, stay here and have a drink with me.”
“Sure.”
Mr. Yang was very hospitable, arranged for a few small dishes, and together with Mo Hongshan, the three of them had a few drinks.
Although Lin Yi didn’t explicitly state his purpose, Mr. Yang knew he needed something, so after the meal, he said he wanted to rest and let Mo Hongshan accompany him.
“I heard you got promoted, so I’ll have to call you leader from now on.”
“Brother Shan, stop teasing me; we both know each other well.”
“That’s true, but rules can’t be broken.”
Mo Hongshan laughed heartily, putting his arm around Lin Yi’s shoulder, “What brings you here? I’ll help you out.”
“It’s nothing big, just wanted to use a computer; civilian maps aren’t clear.”
“Does the Central Guards Brigade have a new operation?”
“It’s been ongoing for a long time, but there’s been no progress. I want to take a look at the map and plan the subsequent tasks.”
“Alright, come with me.”
After that, Mo Hongshan took Lin Yi to the operations command room, where everyone instinctively looked at Lin Yi, their eyes full of scrutiny.
“Use any empty computer you like; I’ll give you access to the highest permissions.”
“Okay, thanks, Brother Shan.”
