Chapter 441: Preparing Everything (Part 2)

Zhao Qingfeng assigned him a task, “Starting today, you don’t need to report to me directly, just contact Jack Ma in Hangzhou and Da Qiangzi in Beijing. I emailed my plan last night, including all decisions about investing in logistics to become a shareholder, and I’ll send you a copy in a moment. Your task is simply to follow the plan and run errands. Remember, any proposals that don’t match the conditions in my plan or exceed the budget I’ve set, no matter how appealing they are, are not to be agreed to, or you’ll answer to me.”

After finishing,

Zhao Qingfeng handed over the proposal to Zhang Dekai.

This proposal, which he could write in one night, seemed like a groundbreaking masterpiece in Zhang Dekai’s eyes!

Zhang Dekai had always admired Zhao Qingfeng, but now his admiration grew even more.

Was this man a genius? The proposal detailed everything so meticulously, covering every aspect.

After reading it, Zhang Dekai felt goosebumps all over, no longer joking, “Zhao, you can count on me. I’ll contact Jack Ma and Da Qiangzi right away. You… are incredible!”

After he left, Zhao Qingfeng meticulously delegated other promotional and publicity tasks to Li Jianjun and Wang Yang.

In short, the message was to keep spending money to grow bigger and stronger!

The meeting lasted until dark, including plans for old Sun, the head of Qingyang Sports.

On the surface, old Sun was independent, but now it seemed more like a company ‘sponsored’ by Erlunsi.

He didn’t care what others thought. Just the fact that Zhao Qingfeng had revitalized Erlunsi into a well-known domestic enterprise within six months was enough for him to decide to follow Zhao Qingfeng for life.

After the meeting, old Sun pulled Zhao Qingfeng aside to his office.

“Zhao Qingfeng, I… I want to give you some dry shares.”

Old Sun feared that once everything grew, he wouldn’t be able to catch up with the rising sails and was even more afraid of being left behind by Zhao Qingfeng without the bond of ‘shares.’

But that wouldn’t happen. Qingyang Sports, in partnership with Erlunsi, had signed many future champions who could win at various sports events, which was a fortune.

Yet old Sun was still not reassured, insisting on gifting dry shares.

Even calling Li Jianjun and Wang Yang to ‘force’ Zhao Qingfeng to accept, otherwise, they would no longer be friends from then on.

This put Zhao Qingfeng in a difficult position, “Old Sun, brother, you’re giving away money for nothing…”

Sun was fearless, “Zhao, I want to give it to you, I want you to accept it. Like with Erlunsi, 20% okay? If you think that’s too little, then add another 10%. Anyway, I insist, you must take me along in the future, or I’ll cry at your doorstep!”

A man in his forties or fifties begging a younger man.

If outsiders saw this, they would definitely laugh out loud.

But Wang Yang and Li Jianjun didn’t think so, even earnestly and pleadingly asking Zhao Qingfeng to accept the shares.

As old friends, seeing this, Zhao Qingfeng really couldn’t refuse.

So, he ‘reluctantly’ accepted 20% of Qingyang Sports worth 12 million.

12 million was a lot, but Sun didn’t care at all because he had witnessed Li Jianjun and Wang Yang’s worth increase several times in just under a year.

After the meeting, the old folks liked to drink and insisted on having a gathering with Zhao Qingfeng.

It had been a long time since they drank together, so they chatted about everything, gradually discussing the future development direction of Lingfeng Technology.

Old Sun was very interested, “brother Zhao, is artificial intelligence really that powerful?”

Zhao Qingfeng, slightly intoxicated, said, “Of course, it can even be used in aerospace; I’m thinking about launching rockets.”

Li Jianjun and Wang Yang laughed, really? Launching rockets was no small matter, not something one could just decide to do, requiring many cutting-edge technologies. Zhao must be joking.

“Let’s not talk about this!”

Li Jianjun interrupted with a laugh, “You’ve gone too far with the boasting, huh. Just talk about what you mentioned earlier, about AI being unbeatable in chess calculations, right? Hey, Old Sun, weren’t you humiliated over this before? Why not take this opportunity to have Little Feng help you regain some face?”
