Chapter 3044: Xiao Churan is returning to the country!

When Xiao Changkun was sent home, he was almost unconscious from drunkenness.

When Ye Chen took him over from Little Wu, his originally thick eyebrows and big eyes could only open a thin slit even with effort. Coupled with a flushed face and that smirk-like facial expression, he looked exactly like a lecherous pervert in a Japanese adult movie.

Seeing Ye Chen come out to pick him up in a daze, the drunken Xiao Changkun said with a smile, "Good... good son-in-law... today your dad truly... truly had... had so much face!"

Ye Chen shook his head helplessly and said, "Dad, if you've drunk too much, go back and rest quickly. Don't wake Mom up. If she sees you like this, she'll definitely come down and scold you."

"Scold me?" Xiao Changkun's eyes widened, and he snorted coldly, "I... I'll give her the guts... the guts!"

Ye Chen patted his back and whispered, "Keep it down. Mom is full of guts, why would she need you to give her any? In your current state, if she really takes action against you, you won't be able to beat her."

Xiao Changkun, who was still drunk just a moment ago, felt a chill pour into his crown, and his whole body shuddered subconsciously. He hurriedly changed his tone, "Good... good men don't... don't fight with women! You... you send me back... back to the room, let's keep... keep it low-key!"

Ye Chen gave a hum, supported him into the villa, and sent him back to his room to settle down.

After doing this, Ye Chen came out of the room, and just then the phone rang. Seeing it was Helena calling, he realized it might be close to the time for Zhou Liangyun to return to the country, so Ye Chen returned to his room and answered the phone.

Helena's voice sounded on the other end of the phone, saying respectfully, "Mr. Ye, it's so late, I didn't disturb your rest, did I?"

"No." Ye Chen asked with a smile, "How is the situation on your side?"

Helena hurriedly said, "I called you because I wanted to report the recent situation to you."

As she spoke, Helena added, "There are quite a few matters, it might take up a bit of your time. Is it convenient for you? If not, I'll make an appointment with you for another time."

Ye Chen said, "It's fine, it's convenient. Go ahead."

Helena then said, "Then I'll tell you about the situation that is relatively clear first. The first is that Mr. Zhou's identity has been resolved. According to his personal wishes, I had people book him a flight for tomorrow morning. There is no direct flight from Osu City to Jin Ling, so he has to transfer twice. It will take about 24 hours to arrive in Jin Ling, which is the afternoon of the day after tomorrow, Jin Ling time."

As she spoke, Helena explained, "You previously requested to perfect a set of reasonable ordinary person identities for Mr. Zhou, so I didn't arrange a business jet for him. The journey will be a bit hard."

"Good." Ye Chen said understandingly, "Returning to the country is the final step for Uncle Zhou to walk out of this disaster. Being a bit hard is better than having extra branches. Later, you send me the flight number, and I'll go to the airport to pick him up."

Helena said, "It's like this, Mr. Ye. Mr. Zhou's meaning is to try not to let me tell you his flight information. He said you still have quite a bit of influence in Jin Ling. If you go to pick him up, or if you take care of him after he arrives in Jin Ling, many people will pay extra attention to him. So his idea is to arrive in Jin Ling and settle down quietly first, and after he settles down, he will find an opportunity to contact you."

Ye Chen hesitated for a moment, then nodded lightly.

Jin Ling is not very big. Although the vast majority of people here don't know his identity, there are indeed quite a few who know Master Ye. Just Hong Wu's little brothers alone number in the thousands. If one of them happens to bump into him, and he goes to the airport to pick up a stranger they aren't familiar with, even if they don't have malicious intent, they will definitely be full of curiosity about that person.

Thinking of this, it's better for him not to intervene for the time being. After he settles down and contacts him, he can quietly take care of and protect him in Jin Ling, which can ensure he is safe and sound.

Thus, he said to Helena, "Since Uncle Zhou has already made a decision, then this matter will be based on his idea."

Helena said crisply, "Alright, Mr. Ye. Next, I'll tell you about the AI model. Howard of the Rothschild family has personally sent over 40,000 graphics cards, and the handover work for Microsoft's data center in Northern Europe has also started. They will migrate the data to other data centers as quickly as possible, after which we can use it normally."

As she spoke, Helena added, "However, there was a small episode in this matter, which is that NVIDIA released the latest computing chip B100 two days ago. The overall performance is much stronger than the H100 we ordered, which can be considered a product of the next era. So I chatted with Howard and asked him to take advantage of the fact that the B100 hasn't been officially listed yet, and hurry up to use his connections to order a batch from NVIDIA, at least ensuring that we can get 20,000 cards within the first quarter of the B100's official listing."

Ye Chen asked, "What did Howard say?"

Helena said, "Of course this old fox is unwilling. The computing power of the B100 has a qualitative improvement over the H100. Many AI companies and powerful internet companies in the industry have long been waiting with money. He said he has already used special connections to get so many H100s, so it's really hard to open his mouth for the B100."

Ye Chen smiled faintly, "Why is it hard to open his mouth? It's nothing more than having already negotiated the conditions in advance, and he doesn't want us to raise the price temporarily."

"Yes." Helena said, "Howard is the most shrewd businessman in this world. Over these days, they have already made a fortune on NVIDIA's stocks. After NVIDIA's B100 is listed, their profits will soar rapidly. Getting another 10,000 graphics cards is not a big problem for him at all, but he just doesn't want to raise the price anymore."

Ye Chen smiled, "This matter is actually easy to handle. We can't just increase the offer, we also have to appropriately increase the value of our target. How about this, you tell him, if he can solve the problem of 40,000 B200s to Northern Europe, we will give him an extra quarter of a pill, which adds up to three-quarters of a Sanxue Jiuxin Pill."

Helena smiled, "I believe he definitely won't refuse, and will be very active."

Ye Chen sighed, "It's just hard on his son Steve. This guy just arrived in Jin Ling to pay his respects. After he goes back and finds his dad is still strong, he's going to hate me to death."

Helena hurriedly asked him, "Mr. Ye, if this Steve jumps over the wall in a hurry, will it bring you any risk?"

Ye Chen smiled, "If he really jumps over the wall in a hurry, he will definitely find a way to kill his dad instead of me. After all, it's jumping over the wall in a hurry, not jumping off a building in a hurry. He won't seek death himself."

Helena smiled sweetly and said, "Then I'm relieved!"

Having said that, Helena added, "By the way, Mr. Ye, the launch schedule of the AI model has been verified again. It can be launched within the specified time, and there is also room for further acceleration, but it cannot be guaranteed yet. It needs to be continuously verified in practice. But don't worry, I will definitely keep an eye on them and let them do their best to launch as soon as possible."

"Good." Ye Chen sighed, "You've truly worked hard, Helena."

Helena hurriedly said, "Mr. Ye, you are too polite. This is all what Helena should do."

Ye Chen didn't be overly polite with Helena. Polite and thankful words are of no use. He will always give practical returns to those who have helped him and those who have put in effort and kindness for him in practical fields.

At this time, Helena added, "By the way, Mr. Ye, you haven't given me a collection account for the 55 billion US dollars Howard gave last time. When are you convenient? Please give me the account information."

Ye Chen smiled, "I really don't have any place to use money right now. You keep this money first."

Just at this moment, another call came into Ye Chen's phone. The caller was his wife, Xiao Churan, so he said to Helena, "Helena, I have something here, let's talk later."

Having said that, he transferred Xiao Churan's call in.

Once the call was connected, Xiao Churan said very excitedly, "Husband, I've finished the handover here! Miss Fei has already arranged a plane for me, and I'll be back this afternoon!"

Ye Chen couldn't help but ask with surprise, "Wife, when can you arrive in Jin Ling?"

Xiao Churan thought for a while and said, "It's late at night in Jin Ling now. I'll go back and pack my things first. After that, Miss Fei will arrange a private jet to send me. I estimate I should be able to arrive tomorrow afternoon!"

Ye Chen said happily, "That's great, wife. I'll go to the airport to pick you up tomorrow!" ===== CHAPTER 3045 =====
