Chapter 189: A Dramatic Transformation! Entering the Carbon Fiber Industry!

For this reason, Lin Yi vanished for three full days.

During those three days, he focused on adapting to his new body and strength.

Beyond that, he went on a spending spree at the nearby IAPM mall.

He replaced every single item in the walk-in closet of his luxury residence.

After all, with his current height, his old clothes no longer fit.

Therefore, he had no choice but to buy everything new.

Of course, Lin Yi did not throw those old clothes away; although they were not luxury brands,

they were still good quality, so he donated them to charity.

However, perhaps due to the change in his appearance,

Lin Yi attracted many sideways glances as he walked through the mall.

Most ridiculously, quite a few girls actively asked to add him on WeChat.

Yet, Lin Yi rejected them all.

Someone like him had no need to maintain a harem, so he naturally had no interest.

However, seeing their boss like this, whether it was his exclusive driver, Master Hou,

or the bodyguard Old Xing and the others, everyone was shocked.

They were all deeply curious about what had happened to their boss.

How could he suddenly become taller and his skin fairer? It was as if he had gone to Korea for plastic surgery.

But even if Korean technology could explain the face, there was no way to surgically alter height or skin tone.

If not for the fact that his facial features and voice were indeed those of their boss, they would have thought this was a completely different person.

In response, Lin Yi could only explain it as a second growth spurt. "Four-Three-Three"

Regardless of whether these people believed him or not, that was the story, and who would dare to object?

Thus, on the third day, when Lin Yi arrived at the company, the entire office erupted in gasps of astonishment.

Even Li Li Xueying, who had not seen Lin Yi for these past three days, covered her mouth, her jaws dropping open.

"How is this possible...? Boss, did you go to Korea for plastic surgery these past two days?"

Instantly, Lin Yi rolled his eyes.

He had known someone would say exactly that, so he replied with irritation:

"Even if I had gone to Korea for plastic surgery, could I have healed this quickly? This is a second growth spurt; perhaps mine is just a bit more exceptional than most!"

"A second growth spurt!" Li Li Xueying recalled that her boss was only twenty-two years old.

As the old saying goes, "At twenty-three one shoots up, at twenty-five one fills out."

To speak of a second growth spurt was not entirely impossible,

but still! The change in the boss was far too dramatic; it was a complete transformation from the inside out.

Although his facial features remained the same, the overall impression he gave was countless times more refined.

His skin was so flawless that it even made women feel envious.

To be honest, witnessing such a "second growth spurt" in Lin Yi made Li Li Xueying wish she could experience one herself.

"Alright, let's get back to work!" Lin Yi said, soothing her.

"Will you come to my place tonight?"

Li Li Xueying licked her lips and asked.

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Good. Tonight I will properly punish you, you little vixen!"

"I'll be waiting eagerly; I want to see if that place has undergone any development as well!"

Li Li Xueying said with a giggle.

Since they were at the office, Lin Yi did not chat further with her, merely giving her a look that said, "Just you wait."

Meanwhile, in the Secretariat Office.

As the CEO's secretary, Tang Tang Chuyu had naturally also learned about the boss's sudden transformation.

At present, the entire management staff of the company was quietly discussing the matter.

Although CEO Yang Chen had quickly forbidden employees from discussing the president in private,

secretly, some people could not help themselves.

"Sister Bai, do you really believe the boss experienced a second growth spurt?"

Tang Tang Chuyu asked in disbelief.

Bai Bai Jie shrugged her delicate shoulders:

"What else could it be? If we must explain it scientifically, we can only say that some people might possess a unique constitution!"

"But the boss has become far too handsome; if he were at our university, he would undoubtedly be ranked among the top campus heartthrobs."

Tang Tang Chuyu murmured.

"Indeed, sometimes a man's appearance alone is enough to be utterly captivating!"

Bai Bai Jie recalled the moment she had entered the president's office earlier that day and seen the boss.

Could she admit that she had been completely stunned at that moment, because the boss's new image hit precisely all her weak spots?

It had to be said that this woman was entirely controlled by her appreciation for good looks.

Although her appearance was seductive, like a ripe peach, with a figure full of curves,

her conduct, however, remained very conservative,

primarily because she had never encountered anyone who could make her eyes light up.

Those young, tender boys certainly looked good enough, but they lacked masculine vigor.

And those men who possessed masculine vigor invariably lacked good looks.

Therefore, over these years, although Bai Bai Jie had joined several companies and learned much about human relations and worldly wisdom,

she had not had a single man.

Most importantly, she believed in affinity at first sight.

At least previously, Lin Yi had never given her that feeling of being struck by lightning.

But the boss's new image truly made her feel heat spreading through her entire body.

Standing over 180 centimeters tall, dressed in a well-fitted blue casual suit, with an upright posture,

his whole person resembled a living clothes hanger.

Furthermore, that face looked exactly like the character model of a male protagonist in a manga,

masculine yet undeniably handsome.

At that moment, Bai Bai Jie felt herself becoming wet, her cheeks flushing crimson.

This was a sensation she had never experienced before.

So much so that she later fled the president's office in somewhat of a "disgraceful" manner.

She went to the company restroom to change her clothes.

"Sister Bai... what's wrong with you?"

Tang Tang Chuyu, seeing Bai Bai Jie lost in thought, could not help but ask.

"N-nothing... nothing at all. Alright, Xiao Yu, let's get back to work!"

Bai Bai Jie immediately masked her embarrassment.

"Mm, alright then!"

Tang Tang Chuyu replied.

At this moment, inside the president's office, CEO Yang Chen was reporting to Lin Yi on the events of the past few days,

He couldn't help but sigh inwardly:

"In just these few short days, the Boss has changed so much!"

About half an hour passed.

"That's the situation, Boss!" Yang Chen reported.

"He's Group from the Ugly Country has refused to provide us with carbon fiber manufacturing equipment..."

Lin Yi frowned.

In the new energy lithium battery industry, after Fengyi Technology had firmly established its footing,

naturally, the company would embark on diversified development; Lin Yi was not content to have his enterprise struggle in only one industry.

Diversification is the kingly way for an enterprise's development.

Moreover, with the technology granted by the System,

if he never used it, wouldn't he be a fool?

Now, the Magic City government had allotted him over 700 mu of land, and the factory buildings still had ample surplus space.

Naturally, Lin Yi intended to lead the enterprise into the carbon fiber industry, which he had long favored.

However, this too encountered trouble.

That is, companies from both the Little Days and the Ugly Country refused to export their latest carbon fiber equipment to their Fengyi Technology.

Although outdated equipment was not included in this restriction.

But, products manufactured using that kind of equipment

would hardly meet Fengyi Technology's requirements for producing new types of carbon fiber.

For this reason, Dr. Wen Xia, who was in charge of research and development, had no better solution either.

After all, the higher the quality, the more complex the required craftsmanship becomes.

Although domestic equipment manufacturers could also produce carbon fiber equipment,

both their quality and craftsmanship were poor, failing to meet the requirements.

"Alright, leave this matter to me; Old Yang, you may go down first!"

Lin Yi said.

"Mm, then I'll get back to work!"

Having said this, Yang Chen left the office.

After he departed, Lin Yi immediately immersed his consciousness into the System,

and opened the Equipment Technology Tree.

To be honest, until now he had not upgraded the Equipment Technology Tree or these sub-directories.

Because these sub-directories were too complex; if one wanted to upgrade any set of equipment to the latest model...
