380: Met Cai Chenghan
“Excellent, this design and styling are very clever. I love it. It’s bright yet elegant, full of technology yet possessing an ancient feel. It’s this contradictory beauty that fascinates me,” Liu Xiaolin said with delight.
“Thank you for your praise, Manager Liu. I thought you wouldn’t like this style, and I was feeling quite anxious just now,” the designer said with a sigh of relief and a smile.
“I absolutely love this design. With just a few simple strokes, it evokes a sense of brilliant radiance. It’s perfect! This is it!” Liu Xiaolin truly loved it from the bottom of his heart, so he decided on it without hesitation.
“Do you only need one style of smart street light? Wouldn’t that be a bit monotonous? The park could use two or three styles to appear more diverse and colorful,” Cui Zhenzhong offered his opinion.
“How about Minister Cui helps me pick two more? Once I saw this design, I didn’t like any of the others anymore,” Liu Xiaolin said with a smile.
He suddenly felt that choosing a product was like choosing a girlfriend; once he settled on one, he couldn’t look at anyone else.
“Alright, show me your design drawings, and I’ll help you deliberate,” Cui Zhenzhong said seriously.
Liu Xiaolin thought to himself that his design drawing was temporarily faked for Yuhai City. Could it be that he would actually use this design then?
He felt a bit overwhelmed: “Maybe the subsequent designs will all be rejected? But, telling Cui Zhenzhong the truth should be fine, right?”
“Let’s go, let’s go back to your office and talk with this design drawing,” Liu Xiaolin said.
Cui Zhenzhong looked at Liu Xiaolin and knew that he definitely had something to confide in him again.
The two returned to Cui Zhenzhong’s office. Liu Xiaolin took out the temporary design drawing from the landscaping company: “Let me tell you, this drawing was done by a landscape designer in two hours, just so I could take it to Haizhe Technology to discuss business.”
“Ah?” Cui Zhenzhong’s eyes widened: “Do you know how expensive a complete set of solar smart street lights is? Tens of thousands! Are you really going to buy millions of products just for this fake design drawing?”
“A few million is nothing, besides, it won’t be wasted. I have several companies that could use them,” Liu Xiaolin said indifferently.
“Alright, you’re rich and willful, so I won’t say anything,” Cui Zhenzhong said, shaking his head: “So, you’re still going to purchase solar smart street lights according to the design drawing?”
“Yes, as long as Dr. Hai can be rescued, what’s a few million? Even ten million is no big deal,” Liu Xiaolin said generously.
Cui Zhenzhong could only stare with wide eyes and an open mouth, unable to utter a single word.
“Alright, please help me pick two more designs. I’m going to take this design drawing to Han Ruoyu and see if I can get any news,” Liu Xiaolin said. “I need to inquire about Cai Chenghan from all angles now. You can’t get any intelligence here. I even suspect if you’re an employee of Haizhe Technology.”
“Our R&D Department is like a secluded tower, unified and unconcerned with spring, summer, or autumn. We don’t have to worry about anything except research and development,” Cui Zhenzhong said. “We only know how to work diligently under General Manager Hai.”
“Understood, you are all good people, so we must fight the bad guys to the end,” Liu Xiaolin said seriously. “Alright, I’m leaving now and won’t be back later. I can’t stay here all day, can I? We’ll meet directly in the Hall of Hope tonight.”
“Alright. You go. We’ll see each other tonight,” Cui Zhenzhong said, waving his hand.
He was growing fonder of this young man, both for his chivalrous heart and his shrewdness.
Cui Zhenzhong was now very confident about rescuing Hai Zhezhe.
Liu Xiaolin waved his hand and walked directly out of the R&D building towards the office building.
As he stepped onto the stairs in front of the office building, he heard a harsh braking sound behind him.
Liu Xiaolin turned around and saw a luxury car stopped. Several people got out of the car, and one of them was surrounded like a star among the moon.
After a glance, Liu Xiaolin said, “I know him. He looks exactly like the photo on Haizhe Technology’s introduction. He’s actually Cai Chenghan!”
Cai Chenghan, surrounded by a group of burly men, walked up the stairs with a cigarette in his mouth. He glanced at Liu Xiaolin, who was frozen there, and walked past him without saying anything. He thought the young man in front of him was a company designer because the young man was holding a design drawing.
Liu Xiaolin waited until Cai Chenghan and his group took the elevator before he took another elevator to the third floor and went directly to Han Ruoyu’s office.
“Minister Han, I just saw Cai Chenghan. He was escorted into the elevator by some fierce-looking people,” Liu Xiaolin said immediately after Han Ruoyu opened the door, reporting the news.
“Yes, I know he’s coming today because they have a meeting today,” Han Ruoyu said.
“A meeting on the weekend?” Liu Xiaolin was very confused.
“General Manager Cai, my Uncle, and General Manager Xiang are holding a meeting about Haizhe Technology’s listing. Only the three of them are attending, so the weekend is more convenient,” Han Ruoyu explained.
“So you can’t attend either?” Liu Xiaolin asked curiously.
“If I hadn’t made plans with you today, I wouldn’t even come to the company. Isn’t it more comfortable to sleep in at home?” Han Ruoyu said, “I’ll go back soon and catch up on sleep this afternoon.”
“Oh, I’m so sorry, I disturbed your good dream,” Liu Xiaolin said apologetically. “I brought the new design drawing the designer just made. Take a look at this style and design, then give me a quote. After I report to our company’s General Manager, we can sign the contract.”
“So, after signing the contract, will you return to Kunhe City?” Han Ruoyu asked tentatively, still thinking that his Uncle wanted him to ask Liu Xiaolin for ideas on how to deal with Cai Chenghan.
“No, after signing the contract, I’ll be supervising the production process of the products we ordered at your company. How can I be careless with such high-priced products?” Liu Xiaolin said.
“Really? That’s great then, we’re not afraid of customer supervision, haha,” Han Ruoyu was immediately relieved when he heard that Liu Xiaolin would be supervising the product production process there.
“How about this, let’s not talk about the quote today. We can discuss it on Monday. Let’s both leave. You go back and catch up on sleep, and I’ll stroll along the beach in our Yuhai City and enjoy your scenery,” Liu Xiaolin said.
“You mean you’re free this afternoon? Do you want me to accompany you?” Han Ruoyu said.
“No, no, I can just wander by myself. You go back and get some rest, don’t make me feel guilty again,” Liu Xiaolin said, waving his hand quickly.
