CEO Cheng noticed this and laughed to himself, saying to the staff,

“Come here, help Mr.

Sun top up his tea.”

Sun Dongxin, who had been teased by Cheng Daqi, couldn’t keep up the act.

He understood that Xiao Cheng wanted him to provide feedback rather than keep dragging things out.

So, Brother Sun asked with a smile,

“How about this, you tell me first what this Shanhaiguan Big Data Wisdom Center is all about.

How long has Shanhaiguan been established, and you’re already playing with big data?”

Actually, this question had lingered in Yang Yuan’s mind for a long time.

He had been at Shanhaiguan for so many days, yet he had never heard of such an institution!

But one sitting was his former boss, the super-wealthy Sun Dongxin,

And the other was his current boss, the future billionaire Cheng Daqi.

He had questions but could only keep them to himself, not daring to voice even a single doubt.

Brother Sun’s sharp insight might stump the average person, but CEO Cheng handled it with unparalleled composure,

“I’ve implemented a new model in Shanhaiguan.

We’ve established a cooperative exchange mechanism with several top universities, based on mutual benefit and win-win collaboration, to fully realize the complementarity of strengths.

This has fostered deep cooperation between Shanhaiguan industry explorations and university research institutions.

Through a joint creation and building approach, we’ve established a multidimensional competitive new-type big data intelligence research platform.”

What cooperative industry and university partnerships, what mutual benefit and complementary strengths—these were concepts Sun Dongxin could understand.

But he couldn’t grasp what Cheng Daqi said next.

The biggest cat in Shanhaiguan was one he had sent, and all the rest were ordinary livestock.

How could you have deep cooperation and joint development with several top universities?

Yet Cheng Daqi spoke convincingly, leaving Mr.

Sun in a position where he had to refrain from asking further questions, lest he appear distrustful of Cheng Daqi—though he was quite aware that there were exaggerations, such as the so-called several universities that were probably only two.

Only Xiao Cao knew what Cheng Daqi was talking about, but how could she dare to debunk him?

The girl’s palms were already sweating with nervousness.

‘CEO Cheng, aren’t we just hiring a few students from different universities?

Even if it includes Peking University and Zhejiang University, you’re pushing it a bit,’ thought Xiao Cao.

In fact, Cheng Daqi wasn’t bluffing at all.

The Shanhaiguan Big Data Wisdom Center really existed, albeit with only three people, and his cooperation with universities was truly underway—domestically targeting Xiamen University, and UCLA internationally.

CEO Cheng’s strategy was always about being genuine—he had deep cooperation with Xiamen Medical College in his previous life.

“Xiao Cheng, I can provide you with personnel, but you have to show me Shanhaiguan’s changes as soon as possible.

If you need money, I’ve invested one thousand five hundred, if you need people, I’ve sent you a sales team and beauties.

I hope to see a bit of buzz in Shanhaiguan before the Lunar New Year.

With so many resources I’ve invested, you at least have to make some noise, right?”

Success in securing the deal!

Thanks to his skills, Xiao Cheng gained further recognition from Sun Dongxin.

Brother Sun’s request indicates he believes in Cheng Daqi’s ability to grow Shanhaiguan, which is why he asked.

Ordinary people would beat their chests and say no problem at this point, since Sun Dongxin’s point was valid, his actions were thoroughly decent, and his requests were not unreasonable.

But CEO Cheng was never an ordinary person; he actually shook his head.

“Mr.

Sun, your request is fair, and any entrepreneur would be willing to agree upon hearing it, but I cannot give you that guarantee.

Running a business is not a simple matter.

Shanhaiguan has its own rhythm.

I can only say that I will do my best with what needs to be done.

Of course, General Manager Yang, remember to report to Mr.

Sun weekly, letting him know what we’re doing in Shanhaiguan, okay?”

Brother Sun invested fifteen million, and all he asked for was to hear some noise, ostensibly meaning to see Cheng Daqi produce some results—that’s all, and it couldn’t be more reasonable.

Yet Cheng Daqi wouldn’t even promise this, and he made it clear that he had his rhythm and wouldn’t change it according to Sun Dongxin’s wishes.

Guo Chongyang just felt that Cheng Daqi was out of his mind.

You just said you would listen to Brother Sun from now on, and when he makes a small request, you start to backtrack.

The ways of today’s youth are far too unconventional!

Guo Chongyang would never fathom the brilliance of Cheng Daqi; he was just an entry-level big shot in the circle.

He wasn’t at that level!

Would Sun Dongxin be dissatisfied with Cheng Daqi’s response?

Anyone would be dissatisfied with such a rebuttal from Cheng Daqi, but neither Cheng Daqi nor Sun Dongxin was just anyone.

Brother Sun heard no different from what Guo Chongyang heard, but what they interpreted was completely different!

In Brother Sun’s eyes, Xiao Cheng’s reply was even better than perfect, with dignity and evidence, commitment to work, flexible principles, and an excellent attitude—Cheng Daqi’s effect on the middle-aged Confucian businessman Sun Dongxin was as potent as a nuclear bomb.

Many older brethren who have been in society for years have boundless tolerance for younger ones like themselves.

This tolerance even surpasses that for their wives and children—it’s a psychological compensation mechanism.

As for Sun Dongxin, when he was young, he had a character similar to Cheng Daqi’s, but he hit many walls, suffered losses, and experienced much disregard and ridicule.

Today, looking at the resolved face of Cheng Daqi, he felt the young man was very much like his younger self—the only difference being that Cheng Daqi was a foreigner, but that didn’t matter.

What mattered was that Cheng Daqi’s spirit and vibe were too similar to his own, and he really couldn’t help but want to treat Cheng Daqi even better, help him even more—not in the Longyang sense.

Brother Sun wanted this young man, who resembled him so much, to walk a steadier and faster path.
