Leng Chuanjin sat in the car, head down as he flipped through the materials Yun Ye had brought.
The materials contained detailed information about the rival company.
The rival was also a venture - capital firm, and the information was comprehensive with no omissions.
However, the only odd thing was that it was a company that had just been established not long ago.
He remembered that when he first founded his own venture - capital firm, even with the financial strength of his mother's family, he had not had the capital to participate in the bidding.
Who was behind this company?
Although it was strange, it was not impossible that it was a young scion from a wealthy family starting a business.
If it was their first time participating in the bidding and they were going head - to - head with him right from the start, they should be prepared to end up looking foolish.
He pondered for a moment and then gave instructions to Yun Ye, who was driving.
"Send someone to check who the shareholders of this company are."
When they arrived at the company, his subordinate had been waiting at the door for a while.
Seeing Leng Chuanjin arrive, the subordinate quickly stepped forward to greet him.
"Mr. Leng, the others have been waiting for you in the meeting room."
He nodded and, led by the subordinate, went to the meeting room.
The only shareholder of his company was his uncle. He hadn't even allowed the Leng family members to interfere.
So whenever something happened, he didn't need to deal with the shareholders. He could make decisions on his own.
The only problem was that his subordinates sometimes quarreled.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw his two economic advisors arguing forcefully for their own ideas.
Yun Ye cleared his throat beside him, and the large meeting room instantly fell silent.
Even though they were all capable people in the business and economic fields, they didn't dare to act presumptuously in front of the eldest young master of the Leng family.
Leng Chuanjin walked slowly to the head seat, looking like a lion king returning to the herd.
"Go ahead."
Hearing his permission, the subordinates continued to talk eloquently.
This time, the atmosphere was much more peaceful.
With the president present, they took turns expressing their opinions, and the meeting ended quickly.
He nodded to the secretary sitting on one side, who was responsible for taking notes. "You should summarize and organize the plans they mentioned. After that, send the electronic files to my email."
Then he stood up and prepared to return to the head office.
The subordinate quickly caught up. "Mr. Leng, what about the bidding meeting this afternoon?"
"I'll go. You should get all the materials ready."
After giving a few simple instructions, he left.
After getting in the car, he turned on his phone and found three missed calls, all from Xia Sanghuan.
Thinking that something serious had happened, he called her back nervously.
"Hello."
The girl's voice, just as normal as usual, came from the phone.
"What's up? Why did you call me so many times?"
The girl's slightly confused voice came through.
"Didn't you say you'd arrange a technician for us? We still haven't seen him."
Hearing this, Leng Chuanjin suddenly remembered what he had promised her last night.
"Okay, I'll arrange it as soon as I get back to the company."
"Aren't you in the company?"
"No, I have some things to deal with..."
Thinking of what his subordinate had just told him, he hesitated for a moment and then added,
"Are you free this afternoon?"
"Do you want to come with me to a bidding meeting?"
The girl on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment and then replied with some embarrassment.
"I... I haven't been in the research lab for several days. Now that I'm finally back, I'd like to stay in the lab for a while."
Although she said so, in fact, she was more afraid of embarrassing Leng Chuanjin if she went.
She had never seen any grand occasions in her life. She wouldn't even attend the bonfire parties held in the village.
After returning to Yuntan, on one hand, she was busy with work, and on the other hand, Fu Zeming didn't hold a welcome party for her because he was afraid she wouldn't adapt.
At this time, Professor He, who was standing beside her, said seemingly casually in a voice that Leng Chuanjin could hear, "I don't know how long it will take for the technician to extract the components from the Black - bone Spiritual Treasure after he comes."
"I'm afraid we won't be able to do any research this afternoon."
After saying that, he whistled and walked away.
Hearing what He Jianyu said, Leng Chuanjin quickly took the opportunity.
"In that case, I'll send someone to deliver the clothes right away. I'll pick you up when it's time this afternoon."
Since the matter had come to this, it would be impolite to refuse.
She nodded and agreed.
After hanging up the phone, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly, and then he quickly covered it with his hand.
Actually, there was no need to invite her this time, but he had somehow sent the invitation.
Yun Ye, who was driving in front, secretly observed the young master in the rear - view mirror and was immediately glared at.
After returning to the company, he contacted a student he had once sponsored.
He had started sponsoring this student since high school and continued until the student entered college and won a scholarship.
Although the student no longer needed his sponsorship, he still often transferred money to the student's account.
This student was one of his most successful investments. He had great talent in physics and had promised to work in the Leng family's main research institute after graduation.
Every time they met, the student would shyly call him "brother". After so many years of getting along, he was a trustworthy person.
This student's name was Jiang Zimo. He was now a sophomore in the Department of Physics at Fernos College and was the best candidate.
He called Jiang Zimo. First, he asked if the student was busy recently. After getting a negative answer, he put forward his request and promised to explain the situation to the school's tutor.
The other side thought for a while and then agreed. "It would be great if I could help Brother Leng."
So when Xia Sanghuan went out to get the clothes, she saw the boy who had bumped into her on the first day of school.
The boy was very tall and handsome. He was wearing casual clothes with a white lab - coat that could be seen everywhere in the research institute over them.
It was a very ordinary outfit, but it was still eye - catching.
When he saw Xia Sanghuan, his eyes lit up. He walked quickly over and reached out his hand to her.
"Hello, classmate. I'm the one who..."
"Bumped into me."
She interrupted him and looked up at the boy.
The boy's hand froze awkwardly in mid - air. Fortunately, she quickly reached out her hand and gave his a light shake.
"Hello, my name is Jiang Zimo."
"Xia Sanghuan."
The girl politely bowed to him. "If there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
After saying that, she ran away like a little gust of wind.
The person sent by her second brother was still waiting for her at the door. She didn't want to seem cold - hearted, but time didn't allow her to delay.
Jiang Zimo looked at her longingly until the girl's back disappeared from sight.
He turned around and walked into the research building. According to the address Leng Chuanjin had given him, he found the research lab.
The door was unlocked, and he opened it.
A strong voice came from inside the room.
"Xia Sanghuan, are you back so soon?"
