Chapter 394 Lacking an Audience
Chen Yang sat silently on the side, listening to everyone's discussions. By the end, a smile appeared on his face.
Then, Chen Yang spoke, "I also agree to enter the pharmaceutical industry. Drug research and development is an industry that requires hundreds of billions in investment and may yield no results."
"However, since we intend to do something truly world-changing, this industry is definitely worth entering."
"Additionally, while we conduct pharmaceutical research and development, we can also incorporate research into Traditional Chinese Medicine, as it is a treasure left to us by our ancestors."
"For instance, Zi Zai Liang Cha, Yang Yang Yang Slimming Tea, and Gong Ting Yu Ji San are all products derived from the treasure trove of ancient Chinese medicinal formulas."
"I dare say there are more and better medicines yet to be developed, yet to be discovered, and our Yang Yang Yang company can move in this direction. The investment will be relatively small, and if successful, the returns will not be low."
Liu Ran's eyes lit up, and she nodded vigorously. "You're right, Chen Yang. Looking back, our Yang Yang Yang company has indeed stood on the shoulders of the Traditional Chinese Medicine treasure trove to develop so rapidly."
"It seems everyone agrees with our company's transformation and entry into the pharmaceutical research and development industry. If that's the case, then it's settled."
"Next, after the seven of us return, except for Lin Yueyu, who will be responsible for the shooting of advertisements and films, the remaining six of us will put our minds to how to start in the pharmaceutical industry."
The group continued their discussion for over an hour before departing.
Zhang Ziqi stood up and looked at Liu Ran, suddenly feeling a pang of loss.
She was increasingly fond of Liu Ran, not just for her unparalleled beauty and brilliant design talent, but more importantly, for Liu Ran's great vision, broad-mindedness, and her awareness of her responsibilities as an entrepreneur.
Such a woman was beyond her reach.
No wonder Brother Chen Yang was infatuated with her; only a woman like her was worthy of Chen Yang!
Zhang Ziqi understood that she might never have the chance to be with Chen Yang.
Zhang Ziqi bowed slightly to Liu Ran, then smiled brightly and turned to leave.
Working by Chen Yang's side was also good, and living like this for a lifetime would be wonderful.
The Yang Yang Yang company was a hive of activity, full of passion. Both its previous products and the newly launched surprise blind boxes were experiencing rapid growth and explosive sales.
This was where the advantage of building their own logistics system became apparent.
The nationwide Yang Yang Yang logistics system, assembled by Wu Feng, could now smoothly transport the company's products to various locations across the country and place them in distribution points in different cities, saving costs and ensuring product quality.
The more popular Yang Yang Yang company's products became, the more furious the Yang family grew.
At the Yang family's residence, a somber mood prevailed.
Yang Wei Gang and Yang Long had just been released from the detention center.
Upon their return to the mansion, other Yang family members had prepared a brazier for the father and son to cross, to burn away bad luck.
Yang Wei Gang's face was ashen. After crossing the brazier, he punched the rosewood table, gritting his teeth in anger. "Damn Meng Qing Xue! I refuse to believe that I, the esteemed patriarch of the Yang family, cannot bring her down. I refuse to believe she is an absolutely incorruptible official."
The other members of the Yang family were also filled with indignation.
At this moment, Yang Long crossed the brazier and approached Yang Wei Gang. He said, "Father, now is not the time for impulsive actions."
"The reason Meng Qing Xue is targeting us like this, and even arrested Uncle, is because she is in cahoots with the Yang Yang Yang company. She is good friends with Liu Ran."
"Someone even saw her drinking with Chen Yang at a roadside stall for six hours straight. In the end, she was so drunk she lost consciousness, and it was Chen Yang who drove her home."
"This clearly shows that Meng Qing Xue's relationship with the Yang Yang Yang company is absolutely extraordinary."
Yang Wei Gang nodded and said coldly, "No wonder, no wonder the Yang Yang Yang company has suddenly become so popular recently. They have a good relationship with Zhou Si Nian and have also latched onto Meng Qing Xue. How could their company not develop well when they have connections everywhere?"
Other Yang family members also sighed, "The Yang Yang Yang company's surprise blind boxes have been selling extremely well lately. It's rumored that the total sales have already exceeded one hundred million."
"It seems the blind box company our Yang family invested in has completely gone bankrupt. It was also the shortest-lived company."
"Alas, ten billion yuan... just like that, gone. It's still heartbreaking to think about."
Hearing these words, Yang Wei Gang's face turned even darker. He said coldly, "What are you afraid of? It's just ten billion yuan."
"Now we need to plan carefully on how to completely destroy the Yang Yang Yang company. In the past, our Yang family didn't pay enough attention to this small enterprise. We never expected them to rise so quickly."
Hearing Yang Wei Gang's words, Yang Long became extremely excited. He immediately said, "We should have nipped the Yang Yang Yang company in the bud long ago."
"But now the Yang Yang Yang company has developed too well, and I'm afraid it won't be easy to deal with."
Just then, a shout came from outside the Yang family gate: "Young Master Bai Lei Tian of the Bai family has arrived."
Upon hearing the name Bai Lei Tian, Yang Wei Gang, Yang Long, and other Yang family members were somewhat surprised, and they exchanged glances.
Yang Wei Gang said in a low voice, "The eldest young master of the Bai family, the foremost family in our Jiang Province. What is he doing here?"
Yang Long said excitedly, "Father, I think if we have the opportunity to latch onto the Bai family, our future development will definitely be smoother."
"Bai Lei Tian is already the designated heir of the Bai family. Let's go out quickly to welcome him."
Yang Wei Gang nodded and immediately led the Yang family members rushing out the door.
At this moment, a burst of hearty laughter echoed from the entrance, and then Bai Lei Tian strode in, accompanied by more than a dozen bodyguards in black suits.
He was spirited and arrogant, his eyes radiating an air of superiority.
Bai Lei Tian glanced at Yang Wei Gang, and then his gaze fell on Yang Long.
Yang Wei Gang and Yang Long quickly bowed to Bai Lei Tian.
Bai Lei Tian laughed and said, "No need for formalities. I've come to your Yang family today because I heard you had a conflict with the Yang Yang Yang company before. It's said that Patriarch Yang and Brother Yang Long were even locked up for three days."
Upon hearing this, Yang Wei Gang's expression flickered slightly. He said, "Is Young Master Bai deliberately coming here to mock us?"
Bai Lei Tian sneered disdainfully and said, "Patriarch Yang, you're overthinking it. I'm not that bored. I've come to discuss some matters with Brother Yang Long."
"I believe you should also know that I, Bai Lei Tian, have some grudges with that Chen Yang. This time, I've returned to Qingzhou City to completely crush the Yang Yang Yang company, trample Chen Yang to death, and capture that little slut Liu Ran alive."
Hearing this, Yang Long immediately fell to one knee with a thud. He loudly declared, "Young Master Bai, our Yang family also wants to do the same. Our Yang family is willing to help Young Master Bai destroy the Yang Yang Yang company."
Bai Lei Tian laughed and said, "Destroying the Yang Yang Yang company is a piece of cake for me. I've only come to find some spectators for the show today. We can all have some fun together."
"I already have a perfect plan in mind to deal with the Yang Yang Yang company."
