Start with a blacksmith shop.

"Motorcycle!"

"Of course I know it's a motorcycle. I'm not stupid. I'm asking what kind of motorcycle it is!"

The name Li Zhenhua prompted Liu Xiaodong to launch into a barrage of questions, his eyes never leaving the computer screen as he asked them.

"What kind of motorcycle is this? It's hard to say, we haven't named it yet. This is the design I came up with for the motorcycle's appearance. Doesn't it look cool?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaodong stared at him with wide eyes in disbelief. It hadn't been long, and now even a hypothetical design of a motorcycle had appeared.

"Did you design this? Did you draw it?"

Don't tell me you've already designed the entire motorcycle; I think this is just a conceptual drawing!

Liu Xiaodong still couldn't believe it and kept asking Li Zhenhua for confirmation.

"What concept drawing? You underestimate me. I've already designed the entire motorcycle. I was just drawing the blueprints for each part."

Li Zhenhua spoke in an extremely calm tone, his expression as if he had accomplished something very ordinary.

"Holy crap, you studied materials science, and now you're doing industrial design and engine development?"

"You're a pervert, aren't you? You're not just bragging, are you!"

Seeing that his childhood friend didn't believe him at all, he wasn't angry. After all, this matter was indeed a bit unbelievable, no, it should be said that it was completely out of the ordinary.

But faced with his childhood friend's disbelief, Li Zhenhua could only explain to him, zooming in on the motorcycle engine with the mouse and pointing at the screen.

"This is really my design, come and look here." He moved his hand to the engine.

"See this engine? It's called a radial engine. It used to be used on airplanes. We saw it at the Military Museum in Beiping."

Liu Xiaodong stared wide-eyed at the spot Li Zhenhua was pointing to, as if he were about to crawl inside.

Next, I explained the design concept to my childhood friend, covering everything from the concept to the overall shape of the car. In the end, he was so surprised that he pinched his thigh hard.

The chubby little hand pinched the flesh on his thigh with all his might, and only after the pain became unbearable did he finally believe that it was all real.

After listening, he stood by the computer, lost in thought. Li Zhenhua, seeing him deep in thought...

He returned to the CAD interface and continued his previous work, redrawing the drawings.

Liu Xiaodong stood aside, stunned for a long time before he came to his senses.

He patted Li Zhenhua on the shoulder and asked him, "Didn't you say before that you just wanted to find something to do?"

I thought you just wanted to modify a motorcycle, but I really didn't expect you to do this!

"You've created such a huge scandal without making a sound?"

Hearing Liu Xiaodong's question, she turned to look at him and smiled smugly.

"Hehehe, originally I really thought I'd just modify a motorcycle and that would be it."

But when I thought about it carefully, if I'm going to do this, can't I do it to the best of my ability?

So I abandoned the previous petty plan and started from scratch to design a completely new motorcycle. Isn't that much more interesting than modifying it?

So ever since I came back, I've been designing my own plan, and now I've achieved some initial results.

I've already designed the motorcycle, and now I'm drawing up the blueprints.

Liu Xiaodong's mind went completely blank at this moment. He was shocked by Li Zhenhua. What kind of genius must he be to do something so incredible?

That's why he didn't know how long it takes for a motorcycle to go from design to finalization. If he had known that, he definitely wouldn't have believed what Li Zhenhua said.

Looking at the blueprints laid out before him, he had to believe it, even if he couldn't.

"Wow, bro, you're awesome! I'm speechless with amazement."

So, how's your drawing coming along? What are your plans for the future?

Liu Xiaodong just wants to know his next plan and see if he can help in this matter.

"My plan is to finish drawing the blueprints first, and then find a law firm to handle the patent application."

I don't need to worry about the patents.

Next, I started livestreaming myself building motorcycles by hand.

As for the venue, I'll probably have to move as well.

My blacksmith shop is too small; it's simply not suitable as a place to work on motorcycles in the back.

After all, we'll need to buy some beds, and if the space is too small, there simply won't be enough room.

Liu Xiaodong was completely dumbfounded. He hadn't expected his brother to be so awesome.

The things I'm thinking about are so far ahead; I'm no longer satisfied with just a blacksmith shop.

Listening to these grand plans, he guessed that Li Zhenhua was planning to take over half of the company.

Just hearing these ideas is enough to tell you it's no small matter.

"Your idea is good, but there's one thing: do you have enough start-up capital?"

To achieve what you've described, it won't be a small amount of money; it would need to be at least tens of millions!

Li Zhenhua, who had been full of fighting spirit just moments before, immediately became dejected after hearing Liu Xiaodong talk about these things.

Like a deflated balloon, it lacks any spirit.

He adjusted his posture in the chair, stopped what he was doing, and then turned to look at Liu Xiaodong, saying dejectedly.

"I haven't really considered any of what you're saying; funding is indeed a problem."

"Right now, I can't solve it."

As Li Zhenhua spoke, it seemed as if his fighting spirit had been rekindled, and his mood became high.

"But just because I can't solve it now doesn't mean I won't be able to solve it later!"

I currently have about 300,000 yuan in my hands, most of which came from the compensation my parents received for their car accident years ago.

I'll take out 150,000 yuan to buy a used machining center. With that, I can assemble the motorcycle by hand.

Of course, it's still possible to produce it without a machining center, but that would be far too inefficient.

Once I had the equipment, I started live streaming, showing how I handcrafted motorcycles.

I've made up my mind. Once the livestream starts, I don't plan to stop. I'll keep streaming until I actually get the motorcycle.

I refuse to believe that with this gimmick of handcrafting motorcycles, I can't become a hit.

"Once I become famous, the revenue from live streaming will be huge, and then I'll have the funds for my future plans."

As Liu Xiaodong listened to his grand plan, he couldn't help but feel excited. After careful consideration, he realized that the plan really had potential.

With the public watching over it, a truly awesome motorcycle will be handcrafted. How could it not become a hit?

If this doesn't become a hit, Liu Xiaodong will eat something while doing a handstand.

"Are you still looking for investment? I'd like to take a stake in your business. What do you think? Would you be welcome?"

Li Zhenhua said this without any intention of attracting investment, but Liu Xiaodong's sudden remark caught him completely off guard.

"I···"
