Rebirth: My dad is too obedient

Chapter 452 Cats and Dogs
Liu Shengnan wanted to know more about Senior Sister Chen Lan's endorsement of Sanlu, so she chatted with her for a while longer.

It turns out that the brand of Sanlu has always wanted to cooperate with the national track and field team and is also looking for suitable athletes.

In fact, before Brother Bing rose to prominence, the other party had already taken a fancy to Senior Sister Chen Lan and had contact with the national track and field team.

It's nothing more than being optimistic about Chen Lan's performance in the Asian Games.

This is indeed reasonable. After all, before Bing Ge emerged, Chen Lan was the most competitive player in Asia for the women's hurdles gold medal.

It is said that the other party had already reached an agreement with Director Li Yue, but Xie Bingran emerged as an absolute dark horse in the September 18th "Anti-Japanese War", which made Sanlu change his mind.

But Brother Bing rejected the other party's invitation to be the spokesperson, even though the other party raised the endorsement fee a lot.

After being rejected by Brother Bing, Sanlu officially signed Senior Sister Chen Lan after some communication with Director Li Yue.

Su Rong seemed unable to understand and asked:
"Why did Brother Bing refuse this endorsement?"

Liu Shengnan turned to look at Xie Bingran, seeming a little curious as well.

The real reason was, of course, Xu Chen's obstruction.

But Brother Bing didn't bring the topic to Xu Chen, but just said "I don't like it".

Xu Chen still opened his mouth to explain:

"Every few years, bad public opinion breaks out about the dairy industry. If nothing goes wrong, it's fine. But if something goes wrong, it's a major food safety issue.

You still have to be careful when doing business cooperation in this category.

Brother Bing did not accept this order, and I also discussed this with Director Li Yue. "

Su Rong: "Is it that serious?"

Liu Shengnan: “So this is the reason…

But Sanlu is also a big brand in the milk powder industry, so does it have this kind of risk?"

Xu Chen didn't know how to explain it, so he just said:
“After all, this concerns Brother Bing’s personal image, so it’s better to be cautious.

Besides, Brother Bing already has several commercial endorsements, so this one won’t be a big deal.”

Su Rong chewed something and said casually:

"Then Senior Sister Chen Lan should also thank Brother Bing!

If Brother Bing hadn’t accepted the endorsement, it wouldn’t have happened to her.”

Liu Shengnan smiled along, with a hint of embarrassment evident in her expression.

For Senior Sister Chen Lan, the emotions she has towards this "little junior sister" Xie Bingran must be complicated.

If Xie Bingran had not emerged out of nowhere, the gold medal of this Asian Games would have gone to Chen Lan.

In fact, about half a year ago, everyone still thought so, including Sanlu and several other brands.

The appearance of Xie Bingran not only took away the Asian Games gold medal, but also the glory and huge commercial benefits behind it.

As an assistant coach in the national track and field team, Liu Shengnan naturally knew all these things.

However, Liu Shengnan belongs to the coaching team in Shanghai and mainly serves Xie Bingran. Naturally, she stands on Bingge's side in terms of mentality.

……

After breakfast, Brother Bing followed Liu Shengnan downstairs.

Xu Chen and Su Rong looked out from the floor-to-ceiling window of the restaurant and saw Brother Bing and Coach Liu get on a minibus together. Naturally, it was a vehicle arranged by the Municipal Sports Bureau.

……

The large piece of land newly allocated to "Morning Wind Technology" by the city is actually just to the north of the original "Guangming Park".

Xu Chen drove Su Rong to the entrance of the park to pick up Sister Fang Jun first.

Under Fang Jun's guidance, Xu Chen drove through the market and apartment area in the west and arrived at the "big construction site" in the north.

The construction site was naturally cordoned off. Fang Jun went to the door to say hello, then took Xu Chen and Su Rong in through a small door on the side.

After all, they were entering the production area, so all three of them wore yellow safety helmets.

"Be careful, it's really a construction site inside, all muddy roads."

In a blink of an eye, the three of them had entered the construction site.

"It's really big." Xu Chen said.

“It’s said to be 100,000 square meters, but in reality it should be more than that.

This is only the first phase, and the rest will be occupied by new production lines and warehouses.”

"There used to be a vast wasteland behind this place. There used to be a village a little further north, but they moved away later, so there wasn't much of a problem with demolition."

Xu Chen was still a little surprised:

"I never thought there was such a spacious piece of land behind the old Guangming Factory."

Fang Jun: "When Guangming Factory was to be sold, one of the companies competing with your father also had his eyes on this piece of land and wanted to discuss it together.

They are all commercial land, and some real estate developers are reluctant to take them. There are no other suitable large companies in the city, so giving them to Morning Breeze Technology is almost the only option."

In a blink of an eye, we arrived at the construction area of the "Morning Wind Technology Headquarters Building".

Xu Chen looked up and saw that the foundation had almost been laid.

There is also a propaganda column next to it, which contains some safety tips, disciplinary regulations, etc., as well as several newspapers and photos.

Xu Chen took a closer look and found a photo of the "foundation laying". Among the "founders" holding shovels were his father Xu Zhiquan and his leader Wu Yongming.

There were also several other city leaders, whom Xu Chen had also met at Bingge’s “hometown celebration banquet” last year.

A middle-aged man wearing a helmet and smiling came trotting over:

"Boss Fang, how come you have time to come over for inspection today?"

Fang Jun introduced him and found out that he was the project manager on the construction site.

When the other party heard that Xu Chen was "Mr. Xu's son", he became obviously more enthusiastic and polite.

"We are just here to take a look. Please do not interfere with your normal construction."

"Mr. Xu, what are you talking about? It is an honor for all the workers that you can come and inspect...

Unfortunately, the conditions here are harsh and we can't provide good hospitality.

How about I take Mr. Xu to take a bath tonight!"

Fang Jun seemed to be very afraid that Xu Chen would be abducted, so he found an excuse and dragged him away.

These project managers working on construction sites often have to entertain and deal with the clients, and they go out for the so-called "bath" and have a lot of fun.

Xu Chen joked:

"What if I want to go soaking?"

Fang Jun had no expression on his face:

"Then I'll tell Brother Bing."

Xu Chen: “…”

Su Rong blinked, not understanding why there was anything she could tell Brother Bing about taking a bath.

……

……

After coming out of the construction site, Xu Chen said he wanted to go to the town to visit his third uncle.

He wanted to leave Su Rong to Fang Jun, but Su Rong wanted to follow him.

"I heard that he has a lot of cats and dogs? I want to go and see!"

Xu Chen still reminded:
"The cats and dogs in the village are not pets. They are raised in the fields and are very dirty!"

Su Rong: "I'm not afraid of getting dirty!"

She raised her chin with a determined look on her face.

Fang Jun: "It just so happens that I also want to eat the big feast in your town."

Xu Chen smiled and said, "Okay, then let's go to town to order food first, and then go to my third uncle's place."

……

Lao Xu's second-hand black Accord is still very powerful to drive.

We soon got on the highway and drove towards the town.

back row.

Fang Jun pointed to some nursery projects on the highway and said to Su Rong:
"These seedlings are all made by Chenxin Seedlings." Xu Chen held the steering wheel in silence, but he felt a little distressed when he thought about his father having to bow and nod and drink with people outside for these projects.

Fortunately, Morningwind Technology is already on the right track. Once sales and revenue increase, these businesses that rely purely on relationships will not be a must in the future.

Su Rong said, "Mr. Xu, your business is so big!"

Before Xu Chen could speak, Fang Jun said:
"It's still incomparable to your Su family's materials business."

Su Rong: "My dad told me that Xu Chen's family business is doing very well and will become even bigger in the future!"

……

The car quickly arrived in the town.

Feeling homesick, Xu Chen looked around the village where he was born and had lived for more than ten years, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart.

Fang Jun guided them and found a restaurant.

She was obviously familiar with the place. She got off the car and talked to the boss for a few words, then ordered a table of food for lunch.

Xu Chen found it funny.

I remember when Teacher Fang Jun just joined Dongchen, he and Yang Congxin went to the old factory area in the town for the first time, and it was also the first time to eat the so-called rural banquet.

At that time, Sister Fang Jun found everything very interesting and would ask what each dish was called and how it was cooked.

……

When the car arrived at the gate of the old factory, we heard a burst of dogs barking.

Su Rong held Fang Jun's arm, feeling nervous and afraid but also a little excited, but she didn't dare to get out of the car.

Xu Chen: "Wait a minute, I'll take a look at the situation."

As soon as he got out of the car and entered the door, Xu Chen called out "Third Uncle".

As we walked into the old factory area, we saw three or five small dogs running out and barking loudly.

Zhang Yongqing had already walked out when he heard the noise. He blew a whistle, and the group of dogs instantly became quiet, wagging their tails and retreating, but they surrounded Zhang Yongqing.

"Xiaochen! I heard you came back yesterday!"

Zhang Yongqing wiped his hands on his body and came out with a smile.

"I'm here to play with my third uncle!"...

Fang Jun and Su Rong have already gotten off the car.

Xu Chen introduced Su Rong to Zhang Yongqing.

Zhang Yongqing was still reserved and introverted, and was still a little shy when he met Xu Chen's classmates.

This made Su Rong, who was originally a little shy, become more proactive and bold.

The group of little dogs seemed to be very smart. They knew that the visitors were "guests", so they came over to greet them, wagging their tails and sticking out their tongues.

Su Rong was so happy when she saw them. She didn't care that these country dogs were dirty. She squatted down and started playing with them.

Xu Chen: "She heard there was a zoo here, so she came here specifically to see it."

Zhang Yongqing was a little embarrassed:
"I originally just picked up two unwanted dogs, but ended up raising more and more of them.

There were a few smaller dogs in the back, and a few cats kept at random as well.

Anyway, I will give you food if you come, and I don’t care if you leave…”

Xu Chen: "My third uncle is a very kind person."

……

There are usually some hired workers working in the old factory with my third uncle, all of whom are farmers from nearby villages and towns.

It just so happens that today is the weekend, so my third uncle is the only one here.

It's quite fun here. In addition to cats and dogs, there are also a bunch of flowers and trees that Zhang Yongqing is tinkering with.

It is winter now, and there are many small pine and cypress trees planted in the yard.

There is also a greenhouse at the back, with some beautiful potted plants planted in it.

Su Rong had never seen these new things before and had a lot of fun playing with them.

She was not at all spoiled like a city girl, and even started tinkering with the clay with her third uncle.

Near noon, a table of food was pulled into the yard.

A large round table was set up and covered with dishes.

Su Rong had never seen such a scene before, so she took out her cell phone and started taking pictures.

The group of local cats and dogs followed Su Rong and also circled around the big round table.

There were only four of us dining together, so Mr. Fang Jun ordered quite a lot of dishes.

It just so happened that Zhang Yongqing could eat for two days, not to mention there were so many local cats and dogs.

While eating, Su Rong was also taking care of the cats and dogs at her feet, enjoying herself very much.

Xu Chen made a pot of hot tea and toasted his third uncle with tea instead of wine.

Morningwind Technology was able to grow thanks to the cash flow provided by Chenxin Seedlings.

Especially when we first acquired Guangming Factory, the initial funds were all from the project income here.

Although this business mainly relies on the relationships negotiated with Xu Zhiquan, without my third uncle, the director of seedling products and technology, those projects would be difficult to implement.

Zhang Yongqing is a non-competitive person. He spends the whole day at the nursery base and the old factory area and is quite happy with it.

Naturally, Xu Zhiquan’s compensation to Zhang Yongqing and Xu Zhilin was not small. Now, it is no longer a problem for my third uncle to buy a house and a car in Tiancheng.

But he still remained his original character. Although he renovated a big house for his parents in his hometown village, Zhang Yongqing rarely went back to live there. He still liked to stay alone in the nursery base.

While eating and chatting, my third uncle also talked about my uncle and aunt.

Both my uncle and aunt are currently working in the factory of Xu Zhiquan's friend.

The other boss was impressed by the relationship with Xu Zhiquan, so naturally the treatment given to both families was quite good, so that they could have no worries about food and clothing.

After the two families mentioned the idea of joining the nursery company once and were rejected by Xu Zhiquan, they were too embarrassed to bring it up again.

As for what happened later when Lao Xu started the electric car factory, my uncle and aunt could only envy him.

My third uncle and aunt still run a noodle shop in the south. They came back last month to complete the procedures for their son to go to school in the south.

Saying that he brought some gifts for Xu Zhiquan, the third uncle also formally bowed to the second brother Xu Zhiquan.

When the third brother's creditors came to his house, it was thanks to Xu Zhiquan who secretly used his connections to speak well of him, and thus delayed the payment of debts to several parties, which allowed the third brother to recover.

As the New Year approached, Xu Zhiquan also gave a big red envelope to his third uncle's children as a little support and consolation.

……

……

Finished lunch.

Several people worked together to clear the table.

Su Rong played with the cats and dogs again, and even gave each of them a nice name.

Zhang Yongqing sent the three of them to the door. Xu Chen remembered that there was a box of snacks brought from Beijing in the trunk, so he gave it to his third uncle.

……

After bidding farewell to his third uncle, Xu Chen drove directly to the Sports College.

"We can go and participate in Brother Bing's activities this afternoon!"

Su Rong: "Great!"

Perhaps she was thinking of the group of cats and dogs, and couldn't help but say angrily:
“You guys are so fun here…”

……

Forty minutes later, at the Sports Institute's indoor gymnasium.

Xie Bingran, wearing the national team's uniform, was communicating with a group of coaches, teachers, and student representatives.

Many reporters from local media outlets were collecting news materials.

Su Rong put her arm around Fang Jun and listened with her head tilted.

I didn’t understand the professional theoretical knowledge of training that Brother Bing talked about, but I just felt it was pretty cool.

Xu Chen looked at Xie Bingran from afar and wanted to rush over and hug her right now.
