This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

"They can go wherever they please, as long as we do our own work."

Yue Sijing responded casually, then saw Lin Yi walking over towards her.

"Principal Lin."

"I think we can report on the problematic cars show in Hangyo. Gather some relevant materials in the next few days, and we’ll go there."

"Got it."

Having discussed the business, Lin Yi left and drove to the Lingyun Group.

Upon arriving at the company, he went straight to Qi Xianzhao’s office.

"Director Lin."

Qi Xianzhao stood up to welcome him in and asked the secretary to steep a pot of tea.

"On my way here, I checked the Jinshan Group’s stocks. Prepare, we can wrap things up in the coming days."

"I was just about to call you about this." Qi Xianzhao said:

"There are rumors we plan to team up with Corea to set up a lab, and Jinshan Group seems to want to get involved too. Such news would definitely benefit their stock, so it feels like now is the best time to pull out. If we wait a few more days, who knows what will happen."

"I agree, coordinate with others and tell them to pull out."

"Alright."

After speaking with Qi Xianzhao, Lin Yi gathered the company’s executives for a meeting.

He learned about the company’s recent situations and developments, and arranged many specific tasks, staying busy until past 5 PM before leaving.

In the following few days, Lin Yi’s focus was not on the TV station but on the Central Guards Brigade.

The news of cooperation between both parties had been released.

Lin Yi called Liu Hong to inquire about the situation, confirming that both sides had exchanged Sheepskin Scrolls.

On his side, they got the original replica, while on Corea’s side, they received a faulty version.

Regarding security issues, Lin Yi wasn’t too worried.

This time, it was Liang Xianghe himself who went. Whether Mammon or Anglo, if they dared to touch Liang Xianghe, they wouldn’t be far from disappearing from this world.

During this period, Qin Han’s program aired as usual, garnering considerable attention and views online.

Qin Han’s on-camera performance surprised all netizens; they didn’t expect him to have such a side.

And the task progress was at 1/5.

This also proved Lin Yi’s earlier assumption that reporting on hot online events was feasible.

Ring-ring-ring——

While eating dinner at night, Lin Yi’s phone rang. It was a call from Xiao Bing.

"Lin Bro, the news about the exchange of Sheepskin Scrolls has been released, and those organizations are beginning to stir again."

"The old man handed this piece of fat meat over to their hands, so these people will surely fixate on it. After all, only by obtaining both the upper and lower parts can they get the complete research data. By then, the situation in Corea will be even more chaotic."

"What about us? Should we get involved?"

"No need, just instigate them and let them fight among themselves."

"Understood."

"Has the old man said when he’s coming back?"

"He said he’s returning tomorrow."

"Alright."

After hanging up, Lin Yi continued eating and was ready to watch the drama unfold.

The next morning, Lin Yi went to the TV station as usual.

Walking in, he saw that everyone in the program team was rushing, very busy, and speaking loudly.

"What’s going on? Why is everyone so busy?" Lin Yi casually asked.

"Didn’t you say you wanted to report on the problematic cars show? We contacted a group of car owners, and they plan to attend the problematic car show too, so we’re coordinating this matter."

Lin Yi nodded, "Which brand has the most issues?"

"Almost every brand has issues. After all, they are industrial products; problems are inevitable. But Toyota has the most, with engine noise and inadequate steel thickness, among many other issues. We are gathering all the car owners’ information and preparing a concentrated report."

"Alright, keep at it, then. I won’t disturb you. Let me see it once it’s organized."

"Okay."

Just arriving at his office, Lin Yi was called away by Zhao Jing.

Upon entering her office, he saw there was already steeped tea and two boxes of pastries on the table.

"With such a setup, is this a Hongmen Banquet?"

Zhao Jing smiled at Lin Yi and even made him a pot of tea.

"Principal Lin, take a seat. I stood in line for an hour to get these two boxes of pastries. Try them out."

"Being solicitous for no reason, either a traitor or a thief, you must need something."

Lin Yi crossed his legs and leaned back in the chair.

"My hands are a bit uncomfortable. How am I supposed to eat?"

"That’s simple enough."

Zhao Jing picked up a pastry and fed it to Lin Yi.

"No wonder you can be a Principal; you know how to handle things."

Lin Yi spoke while eating, "Come on now, tell me what it’s about."

"Mainly the venue issue. I want to hold this year’s New Year’s Eve gala at the Mercedes Center, but I heard others are also booking it, so our chance might not be that great." Zhao Jing said:

"Do you have any connections in this regard?"

"Is there anything else apart from this?"

"Not for now. There’s no need to worry about sponsorships; for a program of this level, others are eager to sponsor it."

"Do you have a backup venue?"

"Yes, but I’m competing this year, so I have to do something different. The venue is a crucial part. Once that’s settled, the rest shouldn’t be much of a problem."

"Okay, I’ll help you think of something. Do you have a budget?"

"No, this time it’s a matter of surplus. As long as we can use it, price isn’t an issue, as long as it’s not outrageous."

"Director Zhao got bold all of a sudden."

"Without Principal Lin’s help, I wouldn’t dare be bold."

"Let’s cut out the commercial flattery. Wait for my news; I’ll get back to you soon."

"You must handle this matter for me; if it drags on too long, it might get snapped up by someone else."

"Don’t worry, I have it under control."

"Mua... here’s a flying kiss as a reward."

"The other party rejected your flying kiss and stomped on it on the ground."

"I’ll hit you."

Lin Yi laughed as he left Zhao Jing’s office.

Back in his office, Lin Yi mentioned the venue rental in the group chat.

Finally, Qin Han took on this task and patted his chest, promising to get it done well.

After finishing the venue matter with Qin Han, Yue Sijing came in from outside.

"I’ve mostly organized the issues, and most of them are here."

Yue Sijing handed the file folder to Lin Yi.

"Today is Friday. The problematic cars show starts the day after tomorrow. I think we can prepare to set off."

Lin Yi looked at the date and time on his phone, saying:

"Alright, handle this matter more meticulously, and let’s set off tomorrow."

"Okay."
