~8 min read 1,447 words

Zhang Sicheng heard Zhang Ran's question, thought for a moment, and said: "Our game is already finished, and now it can be launched directly. We have also talked a little with the people at Weiteng, but we haven't really reached an agreement on the specifics."

Zhang Ran nodded after listening, and just as he was about to speak, he heard Zhang Sicheng continue: "Also, they don't seem to believe my promises very much. Their attitude when negotiating with me was... well, how should I put it, a bit indifferent."

This was Zhang Sicheng's true feeling, and in his heart, he actually understood exactly why this was.

When it came down to it, this was still a bet between Zhang Ran and Ling Hua; he, Zhang Sicheng, was still not quite qualified at this level, even if Biaoxue Company was nominally his.

However, Zhang Sicheng had no dissatisfaction with this; if it were in the past, he might have had such feelings.

But ever since the Internet Conference, he would never have such feelings again; this level was simply not something he could participate in at the moment.

Zhang Ran thought for a moment and said to Zhang Sicheng: "Are you confident you can negotiate this matter well? Although the whole thing is not particularly important to our Zhang Family, it still has some influence. It would be best if you could achieve the goal."

Zhang Sicheng and Zhang Siyan were both stunned when they heard their father's words. When they felt they understood some of the content in their father's words, they were momentarily shocked, or perhaps at a loss.

What Zhang Ran said was that this matter was for their Zhang Family, not for Biaoxue Company. Although the Zhang Sicheng siblings did not particularly understand the significance of this, they already knew some things about Yaotian Pharmaceutical, so it was impossible for them to only understand the literal meaning.

"Dad, what do you mean?" Zhang Sicheng asked, feeling a bit nervous.

Zhang Ran said: "It doesn't mean anything. It's just that if you are confident, or if you want to train yourself, I will hand this matter over to you to handle entirely. Bring Meng Mingxuan along when the time comes; he is a shareholder after all, so the two of you can discuss it."

"In the end, no matter how it turns out, I have no objections."

Zhang Sicheng couldn't help but say: "Dad, this is a matter concerning Dingdang Net. No matter what, Dingdang Net has a market value of several billion. Are you really that confident in me?"

Zhang Siyan and Qian Li couldn't help but look at each other when they heard this. Both of them were already considered elites in the business world, so of course, they knew about Dingdang Net.

Their company, Kangshilan, currently has a partnership with Dingdang Net, and Zhang Siyan's new products also have a partnership. Although sales on Dingdang Net are not particularly good, it is better than nothing.

What did they just hear?

A matter involving a market value of several billion was handed over to Zhang Sicheng for full negotiation?

Just to train Zhang Sicheng's abilities?

At this moment, they had a new perspective on Zhang Ran!

Although Zhang Ran had mentioned some situations regarding Yaotian Pharmaceutical before, he hadn't explained everything clearly. In the eyes of Zhang Siyan and the others, Zhang Ran had only bought a stake; they hadn't dared to imagine that the entire Yaotian Pharmaceutical belonged to their Zhang Family.

Zhang Ran chuckled when he heard Zhang Sicheng's words: "There's no such thing as being confident or not. You are my son; if I don't believe in you, who would I believe in?"

Zhang Sicheng was left speechless upon hearing this!

Liu Lu was eating silently; she felt no ripples in her heart at this moment, or rather, she was already numb.

If it were before the Lu Xin incident, Liu Lu might have felt uneasy and flustered, but now she had absolutely no such feelings.

Her father-in-law had already made his stance clear regarding the Lu Xin incident; he only recognized Liu Lu as his daughter-in-law.

So what else did Liu Lu have to worry about?

Furthermore, Liu Lu actually knew in her heart how Zhang Sicheng felt about her. Perhaps he had been a bit carried away by his sudden wealth before.

But that slap from Zhang Ran had completely slapped it away!

"Dad, you should negotiate this matter yourself. I really don't have the ability," Zhang Sicheng finally shook his head and said.

This was also his true thought. He had only just managed to run one company; to have him suddenly intervene in such a high-end matter, he really had no clue.

The most critical thing was facing a big company like Weiteng; he had no confidence in his heart. Plus, Weiteng was a dominant company in the gaming industry, and he was still a bit intimidated.

Zhang Ran did not force him when he heard him say this, but he turned his gaze toward Zhang Siyan and Qian Li.

Zhang Siyan and Qian Li were both taken aback. Zhang Siyan said speechlessly: "Dad, what are you thinking? You don't want us two to go, do you?"

Zhang Ran smiled indifferently: "Why not?"

Zhang Siyan shook her head like a rattle-drum: "Of course not! I haven't even experienced a single proper negotiation. You want me to go talk? Are you kidding?"

Qian Li didn't speak either; she felt that her Zhang Shu had gone crazy!

He actually wanted two laypeople like them to negotiate such a big matter.

Zhang Ran laughed: "Alright, I won't scare you anymore. I'm not asking you to negotiate; you can just go along and observe from the sidelines when the time comes."

No matter what, Zhang Ran would not hand such a matter over to these two to negotiate; that is not how one trains people.

Zhang Siyan and the other breathed a sigh of relief. Zhang Ran said to Zhang Sicheng: "Call Ming Xuan tomorrow and ask him to find time to come over recently. He needs to be present during the negotiations; after all, he is the company's second-largest shareholder."

Although this shareholder's stake is a bit small!

Zhang Sicheng nodded to show he understood.

When Zhang Ran mentioned Meng Mingxuan, he also remembered the short video matter and asked: "How is the short video project going with Ming Xuan and that Huang Xunceng? Have you been paying any attention to it lately?"

The three of them looked at each other and shook their heads.

Seeing them like this, Zhang Ran sighed and said: "I give you opportunities, but you can't grasp them. Xiao Lu, do you still have any pocket money on hand?"

Liu Lu didn't expect Zhang Ran to ask her, so she was stunned for a moment before saying: "There is still some money at home."

"Invest all that money into Ming Xuan and the others' short video company," Zhang Ran said.

Liu Lu was stunned, then nodded. Zhang Ran had told her before that she was in charge of the family's finances.

Was this considered pocket money Zhang Ran gave her?

After discussing these matters, Zhang Ran didn't say much more and asked about the work situation of Zhang Siyan and Qian Li.

After asking, Zhang Ran looked at Qian Li and said: "Xiao Li, don't blame Zhang Shu for nagging, but you really should find a partner now. How about it? Is there anyone you like? If not, shall I introduce a couple of people for you to meet?"

Qian Li pouted and said: "Zhang Shu, can we not bring up this topic?"

Zhang Ran shook his head: "No, otherwise your parents will probably come to me for trouble. After all, you are so busy now because of our family. I'll give you three more months; if you haven't found anyone yourself, then don't blame Zhang Shu for finding you a blind date."

Seeing Zhang Ran's serious look, Qian Li could only sigh helplessly: "Why are you adults all like this? Fine, fine, fine, I'll look, okay?"

Seeing her like this, Zhang Ran was a bit worried again: "Don't just find anyone blindly. I have to vet them for you when the time comes. I'll tell you straight: whether it's you or Siyan, I will definitely investigate any future partner thoroughly. Don't blame me for not notifying you when the time comes."

".........."

Qian Li felt both happy and helpless about Zhang Ran's concern, but she still promised: "Okay, Zhang Shu, don't worry. If you are not satisfied then, I will kick him out."
