Chapter 229

"Choosing the physical industry back then was also a bit of an ambition in my heart.

In my view, although Long Country's internet industry has promoted the nation's economic development,

the internet itself actually cannot create true wealth.

All social wealth is created by the physical industries; the internet merely accelerates the process of social wealth transfer,

promoting wealth production...

However, the physical industry is the true cornerstone of a nation.

If a country lacks a solid foundation in real enterprises, no matter how well its internet develops, its economic growth will remain a castle in the air,

liable to crumble into gravel at the slightest touch...!"

"So, Mr. Lin was determined to enter the physical industry... is that right?"

Facing Hu Run's question, Lin Yi nodded:

"That's correct. In my view, rather than entering the internet industry which burns money severely, it is better to go all in on the physical industry.

And with the state promulgating the 'Two Reductions' policy, I felt that new energy batteries held great promise...!"

Hu Run wrote swiftly, the pen scratching against the paper.

The entire interview lasted two hours.

Basically, Hu Run had learned almost everything about Fengyi Technology and Lin Yi.

Lin Yi even showed him Fengyi Technology's financial statements for March.

This included revenue and profits.

When Hu Run saw them, he was utterly astonished.

He had not expected Fengyi Technology's profits to be so terrifying.

Although such an enterprise still had some gap compared to Alibaba and Tencent, it could already be considered a quasi-unicorn company.

Particularly, this enterprise was solely owned.

Hu Run made a rough estimate in his mind,

and could roughly calculate Lin Yi's possible net worth.

At this moment, Hu Run could hardly wait to return and organize the records of this interview.

He felt he had dug up the best material of the year.

At noon, Hu Run and his assistant accepted the invitation to have lunch with Lin Yi in the canteen of Fengyi Technology.

Seeing Lin Yi holding a food tray and queuing for meals just like the employees,

with no special privileges or private kitchens whatsoever.

Additionally, Hu Run discovered that many employees held a genuine, heartfelt respect for the company's boss.

He truly felt he had discovered a treasure of a company.

After Hu Run departed in the afternoon,

Li Li Xueying came to the office.

"That Hu Run has left!?"

she asked curiously.

"Mm!" Lin Yi replied, looking at her; today she was wearing a classic black-and-white Chanel Salzburg suit.

This outfit was designed by Chanel's Old Buddha.

Whether it was the court-style lion-button details, the exquisite glitter-thread trim, or the luxurious waffle-pattern fabric,

everything exuded a sense of chic and elegance.

Of course, Lin Yi understood none of these details; he simply felt that Li Li Xueying looked absolutely stunning in this ensemble compared to her standard OL workwear.

She was simply breathtaking.

Because the morning had been quite busy, Lin Yi had not seen Assistant Li until now; finally having time, he asked,

"Tell me what happened last night; my phone is full of spending notifications from you!"

"Hehe, Boss, you wouldn't be heartbroken over the money, would you!"

Li Li Xueying walked over, sat directly on Lin Yi's desk, and said with a smile.

"That little bit of money, what do you think!"

Lin Yi said with a laugh.

"Then there you have it, right? Actually, I did this for your sake, Boss!"

"So I spend the money, and I should thank you for it?"

Hearing Li Li Xueying's words, Lin Yi chuckled lightly.

"Exactly, otherwise how could I help you secure those two little secretaries and ensure they treat you with utmost respect in the future!"

"You're still thinking about that? Forget it, suit yourself!"

Lin Yi thought of Bai Bai Jie and Tang Tang Chuyu and essentially defaulted to agreement.

"Then just wait for my good news; actually, Boss, those two women are both excellent talents, and most importantly, they both look up to you greatly."

"In the future, once you, Boss, manage to win them over, the three of us can become your strongest backing, both in work and in life...!"

On this point, Lin Yi did not object.

Although it had only been a short time, based on feedback from various departments of the company,

both Bai Bai Jie and Tang Tang Chuyu proved highly capable, organizing the Secretariat's work in perfect order,

performing much better than when Li Li Xueying worked alone.

As for the so-called backing in life, thinking about it, that wasn't bad either.

Seeing Lin Yi remain silent, Li Li Xueying felt a hidden sorrow in her heart,

after all, if possible, which woman would wish to share her man?

Unfortunately, watching a certain someone never seem fully satisfied each time,

she truly found it hard to endure alone, so she could only seek comrades-in-arms.

In the entire company, the only ones likely to catch Lin Yi's eye were probably Bai Bai Jie and Tang Tang Chuyu.

Moreover, after a period of observation, Li Li Xueying was confident she could manage those two women in the future,

at which point they would become her left and right arms within the company.

Li Li Xueying had a dream: to become, in the future, the person who truly held the power of speech at Fengyi Technology besides Lin Yi,

a grasp of power that would even surpass that of CEO Yang Chen.

Simply put, she aimed to become the company's mistress.

However, she actually did not yet know that Lin Yi had another woman, Han Han Han Yajing.

It was just that Lin Yi's feelings for Han Han Han Yajing were more about cherishing.

It was pity and doting love; he personally did not wish for Han Han Han Yajing to get involved in the company.

His definition for her was simply to stay at home in the future and be a wealthy lady.

Moreover, Han Han Han Yajing's quiet and serene personality was indeed unsuited for appearing in public.

Of course, Lin Yi also harbored some intention of keeping a beauty in a golden house.

He did not want Han Han Han Yajing to appear outside; after all, with her beauty even exceeding Li Li Xueying's,

if scored out of 100, she would rate a 97.

It was simply too unsafe for her out there.

Therefore, Lin Yi hoped that Han Han Han Yajing would be his little woman and his alone.

Whereas in public occasions, Li Li Xueying, who could handle all sides with ease,

Lin Yi felt was more suitable!

And while he was living out peaceful days during the daytime,

the war in the Middle East was still raging fiercely.

Simply turning on the TV in the office, CCTV's Channel Seven was broadcasting news of the Middle East war.

In the office, he casually turned on the TV; every channel was broadcasting news of the war in the Middle East.

Fifty thousand Ugly Soldiers were forced back by 150,000 Xuzheng Prefecture troops, temporarily withdrawing from the contest for Homs City.

They failed to achieve their strategic objective of breaking through Homs City and pressing straight toward Damascus.
