Back to 2008: I Helped My Dad Become the Richest Man

Chapter 87 The Shock of the Provincial Inspection Team

The next morning at 10:00 AM, in the temporary office in the provincial capital.

Luo Xiyuan stood at the office door, dressed in a well-fitting business suit.

Xu Yang, Zhao Peng, and others stood behind her, all with serious expressions.

The elevator doors opened, and Director Li Wenbo, accompanied by Zhou Liang'an and several provincial department officials, stepped out.

Accompanying them were two middle-aged men wearing thick glasses, who appeared to be technical experts invited from the province.

"Director Li, welcome to give your guidance." Luo Xiyuan stepped forward and greeted him in a poised and generous manner.

"Mr. Luo, you found this place pretty quickly." Li Wenbo looked around the temporary office. Although it was simple, all the equipment was in place, exuding an air of efficiency.

"Time is of the essence. To demonstrate our true technological capabilities to you, we have brought our core team from Shanghai overnight." Luo Xiyuan gestured for the delegation to enter the conference room.

A huge projection screen hangs on the wall of the conference room.

After everyone was seated, Luo Xiyuan didn't waste any words and simply nodded to Zhao Peng.

Zhao Peng took a deep breath, walked to the computer, and pressed the Enter key.

The projection screen lit up instantly, and countless data nodes and lines intertwined to form a dynamic chart.

"Distinguished leaders and experts, this is our current real-time backend data monitoring system for Happy Farm and Happy Ranch." Zhao Peng pointed to the densely packed nodes on the screen with a laser pointer.

"Now, we will simulate a high-concurrency scenario with tens of millions of users online at the same time, also known as the 'everyone stealing vegetables' moment."

Zhao Peng typed a series of commands on the keyboard.

The data lines on the screen suddenly fluctuated wildly, and several nodes lit up with red warning signals.

The two provincial technical experts accompanying them immediately sat up straight and stared intently at the screen.

They knew very well that such a large volume of data requests could cause the server to crash within seconds if not handled properly.

"Look everyone," Zhao Peng's voice rose a few decibels, "Faced with massive data requests, our distributed database system automatically activated its load balancing mechanism, evenly distributing the read and write pressure across seventy server clusters nationwide."

.

The red warning signal on the screen quickly turned into a stable green, indicating that the high-speed channel for data processing had been opened.

"Perfect database sharding and table partitioning logic," one of the technical experts couldn't help but exclaim.

Although Li Wenbo couldn't understand the complex code, he saw the incredulous look on the expert's face.

"Look here." Luo Xiyuan stood up at this moment, walked to the screen, and pointed to a number box in the lower right corner of the screen.

"Director Li, look here."

In that number box, the red numbers are scrolling upwards at high speed.

1000——5000——2000050000——

"What is this?" Li Wenbo asked.

"This is the real-time revenue generated by our users purchasing virtual items such as fertilizer and dog food in the game during that short 30-second high-concurrency test just now." Luo Xiyuan's voice was not loud, but it clearly reached everyone's ears.

The numbers eventually settle on a single value.

Thirty seconds, 350,000 RMB.

The meeting room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Zhou Liang'an stared wide-eyed, unable to close his mouth for a long time. He knew this game was profitable, but he hadn't expected it to be so fast.

Li Wenbo's breathing also became somewhat rapid.

He stared at the number on the screen, his mind racing with calculations.

If this situation continues, the company's profitability will be immeasurable.

"President Luo, is this data accurate?" Li Wenbo stared at Luo Xiyuan.

"Director Li, data is static, but bank accounts are dynamic. We are ready to accept financial audits from any level of the province at any time."

Luo Xiyuan's answer was very frank.

Next, Xu Yang took the stage and presented the comparative report on iFlytek Technology.

Xu Yang first listed the problems of outsourcing companies, such as low profits, insufficient technical content, and high staff turnover.

Then, changing the subject, he elaborated on Roche Group's future plans in the fields of instant messaging, e-commerce, and payments.

"Director Li, iFlytek can bring 30,000 coding workers to the province. But our Roche Group can bring the province a future internet industry ecosystem with a value of hundreds of billions," Xu Yang concluded.

The demonstration is over.

Li Wenbo sat in the chair, remaining silent for a long time.

The two technical experts leaned close to Li Wenbo's ear and whispered a few words.

The gist is that Roche's technology architecture is among the leading in China, and it is fully capable of independently developing large-scale projects.

Li Wenbo nodded. He stood up and looked at Luo Xiyuan.

"President Luo, your presentation today was excellent. It was truly eye-opening." Li Wenbo's tone was very serious. "The provincial government will hold a meeting this afternoon to discuss the establishment of your industrial base. Please wait for my call."

After the inspection team left, a cheer erupted in the office.

Xu Yang and Zhao Peng excitedly high-fived in celebration. They knew the presentation had been a great success.

Luo Xiyuan, however, did not join in the cheering.

She walked to the window and watched the provincial government's motorcade drive away downstairs.

The technical demonstration is only the first step; the real decision will depend on the outcome of the provincial meeting this afternoon.

The leader who supports iFlytek will not give up easily.

But she has already shown all her strength.

The rest depends on Li Wenbo's courage.

3 PM.

Luo Family Village, Luo Family Farm Office.

The owner of the supplier called Wangji Agricultural Supplies was sitting in a chair, sweating profusely.

Luo Xinde and Master Liu sat opposite him.

A lab report was on the table.

"Boss Wang, I've reviewed the report. The moisture content is 15% above the standard, indicating it's mixed with inferior corn flour." Luo Xinde looked at him coldly. "According to our supply contract, this entire batch is to be returned. Furthermore, you must compensate our farm with 100,000 yuan in breach of contract fees."

When Boss Wang heard the amount of 100,000, he was so shocked that he almost slipped off his chair.

"Manager Luo, Old Liu, this—this must be a mistake by the people below. I really didn't know!" Boss Wang began to argue. "100,000 is too much. My business is small; I can't afford to lose that much. Please be lenient and I'll replace it with the best goods for you right away!"

"Wrong shipment? Do you think we're three-year-olds?" Master Liu slammed his hand on the table. Although he hadn't fully recovered, his imposing manner remained undiminished. "This 100,000 yuan, not a penny less. If it's even a penny less, I'll take this report to the county's Industry and Commerce Bureau and sue you. I'll make sure you can't stay in Qinghe County anymore!"

Looking at Master Liu's ashen face and then at Luo Xinde's uncompromising gaze, Boss Wang knew that he had met his match this time.

The Luo family's current status in Qinghe County is something that a small agricultural supply store owner like him cannot contend with.

In the end, Mr. Wang gritted his teeth, signed the compensation agreement, and slunk away with the batch of substandard soybean meal.

Luo Xinde looked at the agreement in his hand and let out a long sigh.

He recalled his daughter's words: "To establish rules, there must be a price." Today, this 100,000 yuan is the price for establishing the authority of Luo's Farm.

Eight o'clock in the evening, in the provincial capital.

Luo Xiyuan's phone finally rang.

The screen displayed an unfamiliar landline number.

Luo Xiyuan took a deep breath and pressed the answer button.

"Hello, is this President Luo?" Li Wenbo's deep voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Director Li, this is Luo Xiyuan."

"The afternoon meeting is over. The debate was quite heated." Li Wenbo paused for a moment, "but your intuitive demonstration of profitability convinced most people."

Luo Xiyuan tightened her grip on her phone slightly.

"The province has decided to allocate that 300-mu plot of land in the Chengnan New Area to your Luo's Group as construction land for a provincial-level key digital entertainment industry base. All related tax exemption policies and talent subsidies will be implemented at the highest standards."

Chengnan New District.

Three hundred acres.

Luo Xiyuan's heart skipped a beat.

She knew that Chengnan New Area would be designated as a national-level high-tech development zone within the next five years.

The land there will be incredibly valuable.

"Thank you, Director Li. The Luo Group will not let the province down." Luo Xiyuan's voice remained calm.

"Don't thank me yet," Li Wenbo chuckled on the phone. "I've given you the land, and I've given you the policies. You promised me the 5 billion target over three years. If you don't achieve it, I'll take the land back."

"Don't worry. In three years, I will deliver a result that will satisfy you."
