The New China Electronic Factory currently has 3.5 million yuan in its account. If 3 million yuan of this is a fixed capital reserve that cannot be touched, then Qin Chuan has only 500,000 yuan available.
For a large sum of 3 million yuan, 500,000 yuan is merely a small portion.
The remaining 2.5 million yuan still needs to be personally addressed by Qin Chuan, the boss.
"Xiao Chuan!"
Ye Meiyun spoke in the quiet office.
"At most, I can take out another 500,000 yuan from my personal savings. Any more than that and I won't be able to."
After all, she had initially put in a considerable sum of 5 million yuan, which was all used to purchase machinery and equipment. This time, acquiring a perfect production line cost a hefty 4.8 million yuan, completely depleting the initial 5 million.
Now, with another 500,000 yuan, it's likely that this sum is truly Ye Meiyun's own savings. For the electronic locker project, Ye Meiyun has truly staked everything she has.
"Sister, it's already great that you can take out another 500,000 yuan!"
"Don't worry, I'll handle the remaining 2 million. I'll sort it out."
Qin Chuan said.
If all else fails, he'll have to temporarily use the funds from the real estate project and repay it once the electronics factory starts making money.
In special circumstances, one must know how to adapt and not be rigid.
"Boss!"
Li Chunsheng suddenly interjected, "If the factory is really short on funds, I can call home. I've saved up a bit over the years. It's not much, but I can definitely scrape together 100,000 yuan..."
In this era, having savings of 100,000 yuan already signifies a very well-off family, befitting Li Chunsheng, an engineer graduated from the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
"Boss, I can contribute a portion as well. However, at most, I can support 50,000 yuan."
Just as Li Chunsheng finished speaking, Xu Ronghua also chimed in.
"I hope you don't find this amount too little..."
Looking at the two sincere faces before him, Qin Chuan was touched and quickly waved his hand, "No! No need! I accept your kind intentions!"
"This isn't about the amount of money, but about what we agreed upon when establishing this electronic locker project. You were responsible for the technology, while my sister and I would handle all marketing and planning."
"Boss, circumstances change. Contracts are rigid, but people are not..."
Xu Ronghua said anxiously.
"Really, no need!"
Qin Chuan's attitude was firm, "The money you two have saved is your hard-earned savings from a lifetime. How could I risk your sweat and toil!"
"Especially you, Factory Director Xu, you have elderly parents and young children to support. Plus, you're a bit extravagant, so not much of your annual earnings actually gets saved."
Being exposed by Qin Chuan, Xu Ronghua awkwardly rubbed his head and chuckled foolishly.
"A mere two million yuan can't stump me!"
Finally, Qin Chuan exuded a powerful confidence, a captivating aura that stirred ripples in Ye Meiyun's eyes.
She seemed to have never seen any negativity in Qin Chuan.
This younger man, who was ten years her junior, possessed such a resilient character, always facing life with a sunny and confident demeanor.
However, two million yuan was not a small sum. Where exactly would Qin Chuan get so much money?
The meeting of the four-person team concluded here. As Qin Chuan left, he stated he was going to find the money.
Ye Meiyun, Xu Ronghua, and Li Chunsheng were assigned crucial tasks.
From this moment on, in addition to going all out for production, they also had to create a perfect proposal and select a high-caliber professional team.
After all, the focus moving forward was the electronic locker project, which would involve advertising on CCTV and hiring a heavyweight celebrity endorser.
Without a perfect proposal and a professional team, this would be impossible.
Furthermore, Qin Chuan also inquired about the current situation of the "My Fair Princess" drama crew.
The TV series "My Fair Princess" was currently airing and was immensely popular. The entire crew was seizing the opportunity for promotion and profit, making it an opportune moment.
After leaving the electronics factory, Qin Chuan went directly to the real estate project site.
He found his elder brother, Qin Yang.
Since his brother had always managed the finances for the real estate project and was the most trusted person, he was startled when Qin Chuan mentioned needing to temporarily borrow 2 million yuan, as it was a very large sum.
However, upon hearing that the money was for the electronics factory, Qin Yang agreed without hesitation.
After all, he was merely in charge of the accounts, and the true boss was Qin Chuan. Both were Qin Chuan's ventures.
It was the middle of winter, and construction on the real estate project had been halted for a long time, so the funds were essentially idle.
However, his brother's agreement alone was not enough; another person's approval was necessary.
That person was Shang Bingrong!
The company accounts for Qin Chuan's real estate project were managed by Shang Bingrong's bank. Therefore, any large-scale fund movement would be immediately known to him.
This served as a form of constraint from Shang Bingrong on Qin Chuan, as their cooperation involved significant stakes, and neither party could afford to fail.
It was understandable that Shang Bingrong paid extra attention to the investment in the real estate project.
But how to persuade Shang Bingrong to temporarily lend these two million yuan?
Qin Chuan pondered deeply, but no good solution emerged. The old fox, Shang Bingrong, was not someone easily fooled.
In the end, he simply made a phone call and arranged to have a casual dinner with Shang Bingrong that evening.
That evening, at the mutton restaurant.
Qin Chuan and Shang Bingrong sat in a private room, eating mutton and drinking wine.
Soon, Yan Weiwei entered with two more dishes, her delicate face beaming with joy.
"Boss Qin, my parents said that these two dishes are new creations from our restaurant, specially prepared for you to taste."
Yan Weiwei said as she entered.
"Oh, really? Please convey my thanks to your aunt and uncle for me!"
Qin Chuan said with a smile.
After Yan Weiwei left, Shang Bingrong looked at Qin Chuan with a peculiar expression.
"Uncle Shang, why are you looking at me like that? There's no food on my face."
Qin Chuan said.
"The owner of this restaurant is good to you, isn't he? Especially the owner's daughter, her eyes are practically sparkling when she looks at you! Could it be that you're playing around behind my good niece's back?"
Shang Bingrong said with a smile.
Qin Chuan, who was about to pick up his chopsticks to taste the new dishes, almost dropped them upon hearing this, looking speechless. "Uncle Shang, I never realized you were so proper in public. I didn't expect you to have this side to you in private."
"If you really want to experience the pleasures outside, I can arrange it for you. I guarantee you'll enjoy an unprecedented level of happiness, far greater than what Auntie provides!"
This time, it was Shang Bingrong who panicked, quickly shaking his hands like a rattle drum.
"You rascal, what nonsense are you spouting!"
"I'm already this old, where would I have such thoughts anymore."
"Do you want me to throw away the efforts I've painstakingly made for most of my life!"
"Haha!!"
Qin Chuan burst into laughter, amused by Shang Bingrong's flustered reaction.
"Uncle Shang, your thinking is too outdated!"
"Have you ever heard this saying?"
"What saying?"
Shang Bingrong asked with curiosity.
Qin Chuan slowly said, "Men, we are the most loyal creatures in this world!"
"From toddlers who can barely speak to an eighty-year-old elder, as long as there's still breath in them, their unwavering preference for beautiful women will never change!"
