Chapter 3141: The press conference is approaching

When Ye Chen saw his father-in-law return from outside with a proud face, he knew that his return to the Calligraphy and Painting Association was definitely settled.

So he deliberately asked curiously: "Dad, what good thing happened to make you so happy?"

Xiao Changkun smiled and said: "Good son-in-law, Master Hong Wu is truly amazing. You just finished talking to him this afternoon, and Pei Qidong came to beg me to return to the Calligraphy and Painting Association tonight!"

As he spoke, Xiao Changkun added: "Pei Qidong arranged a director position for me. Although it is several levels lower than the previous executive vice president, it is still acceptable. I have already agreed to him and will report back tomorrow."

Ye Chen nodded gently. Although his father-in-law had average ability and limited level, he couldn't let him stay at home all the time. It was most worry-free to find him something to do, so he smiled and said: "That's also quite good. At least you won't be so bored, Dad."

Xiao Changkun nodded excitedly at this time and said: "I really shocked Pei Qidong today. I told him directly that I already live in Tomson Riviera, so who would really care about your Calligraphy and Painting Association? This guy seemed to realize it all of a sudden. You didn't see the expression he had at that time. Oh my god, it was so wonderful!"

At this time, Xiao Churan opened the door and came in, just in time to hear Xiao Changkun gesturing and saying it was wonderful, so she smiled and asked: "Dad, what wonderful thing are you talking about? So happy!"

Seeing that it was his daughter who had returned, Xiao Changkun didn't want her to know about his affairs, so he smiled and said: "Nothing, nothing. I'm chatting with Ye Chen about our association. Have you eaten, Churan?"

"Ate." Churan said: "Had a working meal at Dihao."

Having said that, she asked again: "Dad, how was your trip to Dubai with Mom?"

Xiao Changkun could no longer see the previous decadence and said with a smile: "Quite good, quite good. Apart from the heat, there is nothing wrong with that place. Your mother was fascinated by shopping, and I walked my legs thin following her."

Xiao Churan nodded and asked him: "Where is Mom? Where did she go?"

Xiao Changkun said: "Your mother went back to her room to tidy up her things. She bought too many things, so she probably needs to organize them properly for a while. Why don't you go up and see her, and help her out."

"Fine." Churan said: "Then I'll go up and see Mom first. You chat with Ye Chen."

Xiao Churan entered the elevator and went upstairs. Xiao Changkun hurriedly said to Ye Chen: "Good son-in-law, don't tell Churan about my business, it's embarrassing."

Ye Chen nodded and said: "Don't worry, Dad, I know what I'm doing."

Xiao Changkun felt relieved and said with a smile: "That's good."

Having said that, he hurriedly leaned close to Ye Chen and whispered: "Also, good son-in-law, thank you so much for this matter!"

Ye Chen smiled: "Dad, don't be so polite. It's mainly because Master Hong Wu is capable. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to do anything."

Xiao Changkun said seriously: "Good son-in-law, Master Hong Wu has helped us so much, we should still show more respect to him in our hearts. Even if not in front of him, we should call him Master Hong Wu. We can't just call him Hong Wu directly, it's not appropriate. Look at me, I have always respectfully called him Master Hong Wu."

Ye Chen smiled helplessly and said: "Dad, you can call him whatever you like, but don't bother me. It's not appropriate for me to call him Master Hong Wu, and he wouldn't like it either."

Having said that, he didn't wait for Xiao Changkun to speak, stood up, and said: "Dad, nothing else, I'll go up first."

The next day, Xiao Changkun drove to the Calligraphy and Painting Association to report early in the morning.

Although many people were indeed gossiping behind his back about his return, because every vice president had greeted them privately, no one dared to discuss Xiao Changkun's affairs openly.

Xiao Changkun was a little uneasy at first, fearing being ridiculed, but he didn't expect everyone to be very polite to him, which completely dispelled his doubts.

A few days later, He Yuanjiang and Han Meiqing returned to Jin Ling after their honeymoon.

And the press conference for the establishment of Changying Automobile was gradually approaching.

This time, although the An family had invested in many projects in China, for the An family, the most important and valued thing was Changying Automobile, which was about to be announced to the public.

To highlight the importance of Changying Automobile, the An family and Ye Chen made a decision that Ye Chen's maternal grandfather, Elder An Qishan, would personally come forward to serve as the chairman of Changying Automobile, and Ye Chen's grandfather, Ye Zhongquan, would also attend the press conference on behalf of the Ye family. At the same time, because he was going to hold shares on behalf of Ye Chen, he also held the position of vice chairman.

However, according to the results of Ye Chen's discussion with the An family, the real chairman would be served by his second uncle, An Kaifeng, and the chief executive officer would be responsible by He Yuanjiang. In principle, An Kaifeng would not interfere with the specific production and operation work of Changying Automobile, delegating power to He Yuanjiang to the greatest extent.

To create momentum for Changying Automobile, both the An family and the Ye family announced to the outside world that they were about to conduct an unprecedented commercial cooperation, but did not disclose what the project the two families were going to cooperate on was.

The Ye family had high visibility in China, and although the An family had been developing in the United States, as the strongest Chinese family in the world, they also possessed extraordinary visibility and influence in China.

Hearing that these two families were about to join hands to invest in the country, the national media paid great attention to this matter, and the national public was also very curious about which industry these two top families would choose after so many years of cooperation, and how much money they would invest.

According to the attention paid by the media and the Internet to this matter, once the Changying Automobile brand was officially announced, it was estimated that at least 300 million Chinese would know about this brand in the first time.

On the day before the press conference started, Ye Chen's grandfather, Ye Zhongquan, flew from Yanjing to Jin Ling, and Ye Chen went to the airport to greet him personally.

According to the scheduled itinerary, Ye Chen would first take him to visit his maternal grandparents' residence in Jin Ling. After all, both sides were in-laws. Although there had been no contact for so many years, now that they had found Ye Chen, with Ye Chen as the link, both sides wanted to meet during this opportunity, hoping to use this opportunity to discard previous suspicions.

Ye Zhongquan was very much looking forward to this meeting. As soon as he saw Ye Chen, he quietly asked him: "Chen'er, you asked me to hold shares on your behalf to sign a contract with your grandfather. Was he angry?"

Ye Chen smiled: "How could that be? Grandfather is looking forward to meeting you."

Ye Zhongquan felt relieved and said: "It's good that he wasn't angry. Otherwise, if he always pulled a long face, both he and I would be embarrassed."

As he spoke, Ye Zhongquan sighed and said with emotion: "Since your parents had an accident, I basically had no chance to communicate normally with your grandfather's family. They always blamed us for driving your parents out of the house and putting them in danger, and also blamed us for losing you. For so many years, your grandfather didn't even want to say a word to me. Your uncles also didn't want to pay attention to me. I was also afraid of 'hot face sticking to cold butt', fearing that they would still be like this now."

Ye Chen smiled slightly and said: "Grandfather, there is no need to mention the past things when we get to Grandfather's place later. Grandfather really wants to take this opportunity to reconcile with the Ye family this time, otherwise he wouldn't be so active in wanting to meet you. You two should have a good chat. Maybe you can develop real cooperation in other projects in the future." ===== CHAPTER 3142 =====
