Chapter 239

Zhou Andong smiled: "What's the valuation of your factory, and how much do you plan to invest?"

Wu Xianping said sincerely: "What valuation? The factory building is just a shed built in my own courtyard, which is barely enough for now. Expanding the scale again is definitely not possible; I have to find a new place to build a factory."

"The rest is machinery and equipment. The investment before and after is about 170,000. I plan to take out another 130,000, plus machinery and equipment totaling 300,000. Factory Manager Zhou, you take out 200,000, and I'll give you shares."

Zhou Andong thought for a while: "Let's pull another shareholder in. We will jointly invest 200,000. As for shares, I only want 40%."

Wu Xianping was stunned, just about to say something, but Zhou Andong waved his hand.

"The winery handing over part of the business to you is a commercial act, and it's also because your factory's production quality has been recognized. So let's talk business in business; how much I invest is how much I take, there's nothing to argue about."

Wu Xianping smiled bitterly: "Factory Manager Zhou, I've lived half my life and have never admired anyone, you are the first."

Zhou Andong smiled: "Everyone likes money, but a gentleman loves money and takes it in a proper way."

Wu Xianping really admired Zhou Andong; he had never seen anyone who didn't want money even if it was sent to them.

"Who is the other shareholder?"

Zhou Andong said: "Chen Weimin!"

"Clap!" Wu Xianping slapped his thigh: "Great, if he could resign and come over to help me, it would be even better."

Zhou Andong said: "I won't interfere in management..."

"How can that be?" Before Zhou Andong finished speaking, Wu Xianping was anxious, "You have to manage. You can ignore it at ordinary times, but in major decisions, you have to give opinions."

Wu Xianping wasn't pretending, but was genuinely anxious. He pulled Zhou Andong to invest, not just to tie himself to this big client, the winery. There was another more important reason, and that was Zhou Andong himself.

How the winery came back to life, as a partner, he saw it more clearly than anyone else. Even if Zhou Andong wasn't the Factory Manager of the winery in the future, and he lost the winery as a client, as long as Zhou Andong was there, he believed that the printing factory would not only be fine but would develop and grow because Zhou Andong would put his energy into the printing factory.

Zhou Andong said: "That's for sure. I've also invested real money, how could I watch the printing factory develop in the wrong direction."

"That's good!" Wu Xianping said: "There is one more thing that must ask for your opinion."

Zhou Andong flicked the ash into the ashtray: "Say it!"

Wu Xianping said: "My daughter will take the college entrance examination in a few days. If she gets into university, she will be allowed to help in the factory during the holidays every year, and I will hand the factory to her after graduation. If she doesn't get in, I will lead her for a few years, and then hand the factory to her."

Zhou Andong smiled: "Even if your daughter graduates from university, she's only twenty-one or twenty-two, do you trust her so much?"

Wu Xianping was full of pride: "To tell you the truth, the two expansions of the printing factory and this time pulling you in as a partner were my daughter's suggestions."

Zhou Andong felt a sigh in his heart. A young girl who had just reached adulthood had such vision and courage. No wonder she could develop a printing factory to a scale of tens of billions. And Wu Xianping trusting his daughter so much was not just pampering, but also a kind of wisdom.

Zhou Andong said: "Since you have such confidence in your daughter, let her try."

Wu Xianping walked away with light steps. Zhou Andong picked up the phone and dialed a string of numbers, and soon the other party answered.

"This is the printing factory's receiving room, who are you looking for?"

Zhou Andong said: "Hello, help me find Chen Weimin."

The other party said: "Wait a moment."

It took seven or eight minutes before Chen Weimin's voice came from the receiver: "Hello, who is this!"

Zhou Andong said with a smile: "I am Dongzi, haven't seen each other for almost half a year, let's go out and gather tonight."

"Brother Dong?" Chen Weimin said with some surprise: "Good, see you at the old place tonight."

There was still an hour before getting off work, but Chen Weimin asked for leave and went home early.

His wife Bai Ying asked strangely: "It's not time to get off work yet, why are you back so early?"

Chen Weimin changed into the new clothes he bought for the New Year: "Brother Dong called me and asked me to go out for a gathering tonight."

Bai Ying was stunned: "Zhou Andong?"

"Right!" Chen Weimin said proudly: "You still said that Brother Dong became a Factory Manager and forgot about me, this brother. It's just that he was too busy, now he has time, so he called me, right?"

"Hmph!" Bai Ying snorted coldly: "Calling you and asking you out for a meal makes you so beautiful. Look at Dajun, he's a Chang Kezhang now, what about you?"

Chen Weimin said: "Dajun is in the winery, Brother Dong can take care of him. I'm in the printing factory, no matter how long Brother Dong's hands are, he can't reach here."

"You have your reasons." Bai Ying straightened Chen Weimin's collar: "Ask Brother Dong if it's okay to transfer you to the winery."

Chen Weimin said: "Just dreaming. What's the point of me going? A newcomer, going there is just a worker, can he arrange a leadership position for me?"

"Are you stupid?" Bai Ying hit Chen Weimin: "Who said you have to be an official? The winery's wages are more than double yours. Count all the enterprises and institutions in the city, which one can compare to the winery? Who doesn't envy it?"

"There are so many people who have broken their heads trying to get into the winery, but they can't find a way in. You are good brothers with Dongzi, this relationship is incomparable to anyone. Wanting to get into the winery, isn't it just a matter of a word from you?"

In the past half year, whether it was Zhou Andong or Gu Bing, they had received many calls to arrange people into the winery, and they were not polite at all, all of them were pushed back.

Naturally, they offended a large group of people, and Cheng Zhanjun's three fires hadn't burned, which made many people have an illusion and were ready to take action against the winery.

Just when they were arranging intensively, the provincial investigation team came down and wiped them out in one pot. The few who escaped the disaster were also hiding in corners and shivering, not daring to come out and find trouble.

"I'll ask!"

Chen Weimin was also very tempted, but he didn't say anything to his wife. Because he also heard that many big leaders had greeted him to arrange people into the winery, and in the end, they were all rejected by Zhou Andong. He didn't want to make things difficult for Brother Dong because of this matter.

Sandpot snacks, when Chen Weimin arrived, Zhou Andong and Yao Jun had already ordered dishes.

"I asked for an hour's leave and got off work early, but still not as early as you guys."

Yao Jun had a cigarette in his mouth and was wiping the wine glass with paper: "Dongzi and I don't need to ask for leave, no one dares to manage when we go out, are you envious?"

Chen Meng Weihua said with a smile: "That's true, now you are Chang Kezhang Yao, how can I compare."

Yao Jun burst into laughter, took the cigarette from his mouth to his hand: "Come, call me Chang Kezhang Yao, today you can drink whatever you want and order whatever you want in this store."

Chen Meng Weihua gave a thumbs up: "Chang Kezhang Yao, you are grand."
