Hunt her

When the two returned to Yunzhao County, it was already late autumn, and everyone was wearing cotton-padded coats to keep warm.

Yan Xu was still wearing a spaghetti strap nightgown, sitting cross-legged on the living room sofa, working.

Shen Yi took a thick blanket from the closet and draped it over her: "The temperature is only a few degrees now, wear something thicker so you don't catch a cold."

When Shen Yi draped the blanket over her again, he saw her searching for Shenyi Technology Company.

"I remember you investigated their company last time," Shen Yi asked. "Why are you investigating them again?"

Yan Xu didn't even look away from the computer screen, and while collecting information, he said, "I plan to visit Shenyi Technology."

I had said before that I would go and talk to them about cooperation, but she kept putting it off.

Deep down, Yan Xu was afraid of failure.

Yuyu Technology's chip technology was the result of her grandfather's extensive research, effort, and money, and she dared not easily share it for collaboration.

Markets are like battlefields.

Examples of allies turning into partners and then becoming comrades-in-arms and acquiring each other are all too common.

This is why, after obtaining the right to inherit the patent, she chose to cut off all cooperation and refused to discuss projects with anyone.

They felt they could avoid it for as long as possible.

But now she can't hide anymore.

When the people she trusted started using her as bait to discuss business, she knew the time had come for Yuyu Chip to be reintroduced.

Remembering what he had said last time, Yan Xu turned her head and asked, "Didn't you say you had connections at Shenyi Technology? Could you help me arrange a meeting with their leader?"

If you have connections, you might as well use them.

Shen Yi paused slightly: "It's possible, but I've heard that their chairman never appears in public, so he probably won't agree."

She could understand that the real big shots were always pulling the strings from behind the scenes.

Yan Xu: "It's alright, as long as we can schedule an appointment with the management. If we can't schedule a time, then I'll think of something else."

In short, since Shenyi Technology is the most suitable partner, she must first go and talk to them.

Shen Yi ruffled her hair and agreed, "Leave it to me, I guarantee I'll complete the mission."

......

Recently, Aunt Chen has been managing Zhenyunxuan, and two or three day-wage workers have been hired to clean it.

Yan Xu, on the other hand, was fully focused on chip cooperation.

Shen Yi's hardware store is only open for one day every now and then, depending on whether Yan Xu is at Zhenyunxuan. If she is, the hardware store will open; if she is not, the lights in the hardware store will not even be turned on.

His leisurely demeanor puzzled Yan Xu.

She sat in a street-side coffee shop, with Shen Yi keeping her company. They drank coffee and played on their phones, quite comfortable with each other.

Yan Xu kicked his shin: "Hey, you play around like this every day, can your wallet handle it? The hardware store still has to pay rent, that's not a small amount of money."

Shen Yi was suddenly kicked by her, and he almost spat out his coffee.

He had complaints but dared not voice them, explaining, "I have investments; the daily interest is enough for me."

However, his investment products are not funds or stocks, but his own startup company.

Yan Xu was relieved: "That's good. A man can't be too lazy, otherwise he'll become irresponsible and always want to take shortcuts."

For example, Yan Shan obtained high-value investments for the Yu family by marrying into their family, and then became a successful entrepreneur by exploiting his maternal grandfather's assets.

I haven't witnessed his entrepreneurial abilities, but I have certainly experienced his ruthlessness in abandoning his family and friends.

Shen Yisheng was already at the end of the shortcut, so he didn't need a shortcut.

He stretched, leaned back in his chair, and smiled at her: "Call me Brother Yi, and I'll tell you when you'll meet with the leaders of Shenyi Technology."

"We got a date!" Yan Xu excitedly grabbed his hand, her eyes shining. "Hurry, hurry, when? Who did you meet?"

Shen Yi leaned in with his ear, trying to be cheeky: "Want to know? What are you going to call me?"

He smiled, waiting for her to give in.

"..."

Yan Xu was so angry she gritted her teeth and slapped him: "Don't make me lose my temper when I'm happiest, just tell me!"

Shen Yi was stunned by her slap. He covered his face, his lips pressed down in grievance, and his eyes looked pitiful: "You're so fierce..."

"Tsk!" Yan Xu raised his hand as if to slap him again, but Shen Yi instinctively dodged.

This time he learned his lesson and honestly explained, "I have an appointment with the business manager at 3 PM tomorrow, so you can take your time and go there after lunch."

"Okay." Having the opportunity to meet meant that the cooperation had taken at least a big step forward.

Yan Xu looked around and saw that there was no one there. She cupped Shen Yi's face and kissed him hard.

"Well done, here's a reward for you." She scratched his chin like she was teasing a dog.

At this moment, Shen Yi had already forgotten the slap he had just received. He pursed his lips shyly, enjoying her teasing. If he had a dog's tail, it would definitely be wagging non-stop right now.

Yan Xu compiled a list of the projects they had previously collaborated on, so he would have the confidence to discuss them tomorrow.

......

The two agreed to meet at Shenyi Technology Company.

Shenyi Technology is located in the suburbs and has its own office building, but it is not very tall, only five stories high.

But to have this scale in such a competitive market of tech companies is quite impressive.

The conference room was empty.

Yan Xu waited for the other party to arrive with a mix of nervousness and trepidation.

"Hello." A man in a suit pushed open the door, walked in, and sat down. "I'm Hong Bo, the business manager."

Yan Xu sat opposite him: "I am Yan Xu from Youyu Technology. Today I would like to talk to your company about chip cooperation. This is a project that our company has done before. You can take a look."

Hong Bo took the documents and casually flipped through them: "I know your company. After the previous chairman passed away, you haven't cooperated with anyone else. Why do you want to start again now?"

"If I don't use this chip technology patent, someone else will use it sooner or later," Yan Xu frankly stated. "Rather than letting others benefit from it, I might as well use it myself."

Hong Bo nodded in agreement. Technology is advancing rapidly, but chip development has always been slow because this technology requires a lot of money to invest, and it is difficult to develop without sufficient financial resources.

Hong Bo, a seasoned businessman, speaks very directly: "I currently have a chip supplier I'm working with. What reasons do you have for me to choose you? Convince me."

Yan Xu smiled confidently: "Of all the projects that Youyu has collaborated on, their smart products run the smoothest and have the best user experience. Even though they haven't been in production for nearly ten months, many users still mention them."

"User word-of-mouth is the reason."

The ultimate goal of all products is to be sold to users.

A good product is one that satisfies its users.

Hong Bo smiled with satisfaction, stood up, and extended his hand: "It's been a pleasure doing business with you."

Yan Xu paused for half a second, then stood up and shook hands: "It's a pleasure to cooperate with you."

Sitting in the chairman's office, Shen Yi crossed his legs, admiring his wife's focused work.

I couldn't help but exclaim, "She's so charming! I have such good taste!"

But the next second he called Hongbo: "What do you mean by shaking hands? Did you let me touch her?"

He couldn't tolerate even a speck of dust in her eyes; he wouldn't allow anyone to touch a single hair on her head.

Absolutely not!

Hongbo's undeserved disaster: "..."

Hongbo glanced at Yan Xu in front of him, then timidly apologized to the person on the other end of the phone, "I'm sorry, I'll be more careful next time."

Yan Xu didn't know who he was talking to on the phone, but it seemed he had offended some leader.

After hanging up the phone, Hongbo escorted Yan Xu to the company gate: "Take care, Miss Yan."

Yan Xu nodded politely.

Shen Yi appeared only after Yan Xu had walked away.

Hong Bo turned around and saw Shen Yi standing in the hall. A cold sweat immediately broke out on his back: "It's over..."

Never mess with someone who is extremely possessive, because such people are stubborn and inflexible.

Yan Xu hailed a taxi on the roadside to return to the hotel. She called Shen Yi: "I've made it! I thought I'd be rejected."

Shen Yi: "Congratulations, wife. When are you planning to go back to Yunzhao County? You have to treat me to a meal."

Yan Xu hesitated for a moment: "I might need to plan to move back to Kuncheng."

Starting her career meant it was time for her to leave Yunzhao County.

Shen Yi was silent for a moment before replying, "Okay, I'll come back with you."

"But..." Yan Xu didn't know what to say.

Moving to a different city is a big decision; he should think carefully about whether he wants to go back to Kunming, not about her.
