Chapter 764: Secret Mission

"Director Chen, how did Wang Qing Shu go missing again?"

"Shangguan Yan had just met Wang Qing Shu, but important matters hadn't been discussed yet; unexpectedly, after only one night she lost contact with him. Puzzled, she could only go to Chen Yang for help."

"Chen Yang didn't expect Shangguan Yan to care so much about Wang Qing Shu, and he also felt happy for her. After all, only mutual feelings can last. He explained gently: 'Wang Qing Shu's uncle is carrying out an important business mission; it's not convenient for him to meet you right now. If possible, he may need to go abroad for a while.'"

"Upon hearing that Chen Yang had transferred Wang Qing Shu away, Shangguan Yan's expression eased slightly. 'Director Chen, I haven't had a chance to discuss important matters with him yet; could you let him leave a bit later?'"

"Chen Yang shook his head without hesitation and said seriously: 'This mission concerns the future ten-year development of the Old Hundreds Trading Company and the Financial Investment Company; we need to race against time, so I can only wrong you for a while.'"

"Seeing Chen Yang's attitude didn't seem like he was joking, Shangguan Yan felt a bit down."

"Chen Yang, noticing this, softly comforted her: 'Miss Shangguan, from what I learned from Wang Qing Shu's uncle, he actually doesn't dislike you; he even has a good impression of you. As long as your attitude stays the same, he will surely give you a perfect outcome.'"

"Upon hearing that Wang Qing Shu had a good impression of her, Shangguan Yan's cheeks flushed slightly. She whispered resentfully: 'If he has feelings, why doesn't he just tell me directly… and why is he avoiding me?'"

"Chen Yang laughed: 'There was originally a big misunderstanding between him and you; he's probably a bit embarrassed. But his willingness to accept the task I gave him is actually closely related to you.'"

"Shangguan Yan looked at Chen Yang with a puzzled expression and asked: 'What does this have to do with me?'"

"Chen Yang replied sternly: 'He wants to prove he's not just an internet-addicted youth, but an excellent man who can give you absolute security.'"

"Upon hearing this, Shangguan Yan's cheeks turned even redder. She said somewhat embarrassedly: 'Director Chen, don't lie to me. Do I really deserve him doing that?'"

"Chen Yang shrugged slightly, smiling as he said: 'What I say doesn't count. We'll have to wait until Wang Qing Shu's uncle returns from his business trip, then you can ask him yourself.'"

"Shangguan Yan breathed a sigh of relief. Resigning from her position as General Manager of Blue Sea Shipping Company and choosing to stay in Modu was actually the biggest gamble of her life."

"If Chen Yang wasn't deceiving her, then this gamble paid off. But before she formally married into the Wang family, she still couldn't let go of the stone in her heart."

"'General Manager Chen, since Wang Qing Shu has left Three Stone Technology, I'll go handle the employee community project over there. Three Stone Technology this side is too idle; I don't want people to think I'm just a decoration.'"

"Seeing her serious attitude, Chen Yang could only nod in agreement. He reminded her: 'The employee community project over there is quite complex, especially the work involving demolition and compensation. For any matters, it's best to consult me first. This is not only out of concern for your safety, but also to ensure the project proceeds more smoothly.'"

"'Director Chen, rest assured, no matter how difficult, I will prioritize the bigger picture.' Seeing Chen Yang agree to her request, Shangguan Yan's mood instantly brightened. Having been constrained for two years at Blue Sea Shipping Company, she was eager to do something to prove herself."

"Watching Shangguan Yan leave happily, Chen Yang also breathed a sigh of relief. If she really insisted on seeing Wang Qing Shu, given his personality, his plan would likely fail before it even began."

"Luo Hao's side has already conducted secret negotiations with Fruit Company regarding the smartphone OEM project. If all goes well, Chen Yang's electronics factory will secure the manufacturing rights for the first-generation Fruit smartphone."

"Before that, Chen Yang had an even more important task: integrating the APP programs of the Old Hundreds E-commerce Platform and Public Pass into Fruit Company's domestically versioned iOS system."

"That way, he could seize the domestic smartphone user market ahead of all competitors."

"Of course, sending Wang Qing Shu to Beautiful Country again is not just to learn from Fruit Company's technical department; more importantly, it's to recruit relevant technical talent."

"To establish a firm foothold in the domestic tech sector, a strong technical team is essential. Besides scouting for outstanding talent domestically, Chen Yang also hopes more overseas elites will join this plan."

"However, Wang Qing Shu's departure wasn't just worrying Shangguan Yan; Wang Lei's phone call came in quickly as well."

"'Director Chen, why can't I reach Advisor Wang again? The game is about to go into public testing; without him overseeing the technical department, I feel uneasy!'"

"'General Manager Wang, Advisor Wang has more important work to handle. As for the technical department, you guys should still strive to overcome the difficulties! Even without him, the colleagues in the technical department are doing fine.'"

"'Director Chen, you can't say that; with Advisor Wang around, our efficiency will be higher. You also hope this public test can launch smoothly, right?'"

"'General Manager Wang, I understand your point. But this time there really is more important work for Advisor Wang to handle. If it goes smoothly, Three Stone Technology Company will also benefit.'"

"'What project? Could you disclose a bit?'"

"'Sorry, this plan is of great importance; it must remain confidential for now.'"

"'Alright then! The public test is in a week; do you have any good suggestions for the promotion aspect?'"

"'As far as I know, President Wu has strong connections in the publicity department; you should consult him about this. As shareholders, they shouldn't just think about dividends; they should also contribute some effort.'"

"'Okay, I'll go talk to President Wu first, then not disturb your work.'"

"Wang Lei's phone was quickly hung up."

"Chen Yang lowered his head in thought for a moment, then picked up the phone and called Cheng Xiao Xiao."

"'Boss, any important instructions?'"

"'It's not really an instruction, just an idea for you to convey to the board of directors.'"

"'Sure, I'm all ears!'"

"'It's like this: I plan to have Three Stone Technology Company, the Old Hundreds E-commerce Platform, and Public Pass Co., Ltd. jointly run a promotional event. The goal is to raise the user ceiling for the three companies. Ask those major shareholders if they're interested in participating.'"

"'Boss, what's the budget for the event?'"

"'The preliminary plan is ten billion yuan! If they have objections, we can reduce it somewhat. However, you should remind them that to achieve a stunning effect, they shouldn't be stingy with money. Domestic third-party payment platforms aren't just ours; to capture more market share, we must invest more than our competitors.'"

"'Okay, I'll relay that truthfully. But for a racing game, spending ten billion yuan on promotion—I have to say you're being extravagant!'"

"'Hehe, once this game becomes a big hit, you'll find that those ten billion yuan were well spent.'"

"'Alright, I'll wait and see!'"
