Mr. Mu, stop bullying Professor Jian.

Mu Qingyuan's face looked very bad, his whole body was tense, and he seemed to be unable to suppress his anger.

Jian Zhinian was a little frightened and didn't know how to start.

He thought Mu Qingyuan had already known about it yesterday. After all, Secretary Fang had just said that President Mu said he would bring him along.

"I, I... came here with you..."

Fang Xinbai looked between the two of them and explained hastily, "Boss Mu, you forgot that you just said you wanted the new technical assistant to come along and broaden his horizons."

In Ander's territory, Mu Qingyuan quickly suppressed his anger and said, "Let's talk about it when we get back."

Can't this person be more attentive, let him stay at home, and go back to his K University when he has had enough time? Can't he be a little more obedient?

Mu Qingyuan had a headache, but he couldn't vent it.

Soon, Mr. Cao from Ande came in with a smile.

"Mr. Mu, I have heard of your name for a long time. Now that I see you, I find you are indeed young and courageous."

Mu Qingyuan stood up and said respectfully: "Mr. Cao is a technical leader in the new energy battery industry. I should have paid him a visit a long time ago."

Cao Jin is the chief technical engineer of Ande Company. He is well-known in the industry. He is in his early forties and as a technician, he is somewhat proud.

Mu Qingyuan made appointments several times before Cao Jin agreed this time.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Cao Jin got to the point: "I heard that President Mu is interested in investing in new battery technology and upgrading the production lines of his battery factory?"

Mu Qingyuan said modestly: "Mu's core technology in batteries is still in the exploratory stage."

"This time I visited Mr. Cao to ask him about Ande's technical update direction in the field of automotive batteries."

These are company secrets, so naturally they are not so easy to find out.

But since Cao Jin agreed to the meeting, he naturally had something to say.

Cao Jin cleverly changed the subject and said with a smile, "I heard that President Mu is also secretly looking for the patent with the most mass production feasibility in terms of battery safety performance. Unfortunately, Ande found the confidential patent applicant at the end of last month and signed an exclusive authorization.

"I'm afraid President Mu's plan will fail."

Mu Qingyuan's face froze, and a brief flash of surprise flashed across his deep eyes, but he quickly calmed down and said, "Oh? Ander thinks so highly of the Mu family that he would take the lead in this matter?"

Does this mean that he is on the right track?

Mr. Cao couldn't hide the pride in his eyes, and said: "Young people are formidable. Although Ander is at the forefront of this field, he is also preparing for a rainy day. I'm sorry, Mr. Mu, you may have to find another breakthrough."

Cao Jin stood up and said, "I have a meeting later, so I won't waste any more of Mr. Mu's time."

Mu Qingyuan suffered a loss as he was shown off in front of others and even warned.

"Mr. Cao, you're welcome. Thank you for coming all the way to let me know about this."

Mu Qingyuan maintained a smile on his face, and the two parties shook hands in a friendly manner.

Today is Cao Jin's home court. I specially met Mu Qingyuan like this, mainly to dampen the young people's enthusiasm and nip some opponents in the bud.

Cao Jin is running amok in Ande Technology, but Ande's boss has always favored Mu Qingyuan, and he has been unhappy about it for a long time.

What he despised most was people like Mu Qingyuan, rich young men who had no technical skills and relied on inheritance to run the family business.

He looked down on Mu Qingyuan, and he never even glanced at Fang Xinbai and Jian Zhinian who were beside Mu Qingyuan.

Of course, he was still polite in the final courtesy handshake.

He originally thought it was just a formality, but the gentle young man opposite him shook his hand and suddenly spoke -

"Mr. Cao, I'd like to ask you a question. For the patent authorization you just mentioned, Ande has at most negotiated with the Xinke Patent Agency. He must not have signed a contract with the patent applicant yet, right?"

Cao Jin's face suddenly changed. Where did this idiot come from? He opened his mouth and said "new" patent agent?

"What nonsense are you talking about..." Cao Jin was furious.

Jian Zhinian smiled faintly: "Whether it's nonsense or not, Mr. Cao knows it best..."

"Boss Cao, please go ahead and do your work. Boss Mu will sign an exclusive licensing contract with the patent applicant tomorrow. Let's see who is real and who is fake in the end!"

Jian Zhinian let go of his hand and gave a gentle smile, but the words he said were not gentle at all.

"Arrogant, do all of Mr. Mu's men speak so freely?"

Ander invested a huge amount of money in that institution.

When Fang Xinbai heard Jian Zhinian's first words, he wanted to cover his mouth immediately, but President Mu pulled him back.

After Cao Jin asked this, he instinctively wanted to take on this dilemma for Mu Qingyuan.

Unexpectedly, Mu Qingyuan stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "Boss Cao, my people are always practical and never deceive people. Boss Cao, why don't you wait and see?"

"We'll see!"

Cao Jin, who was secretly mocked and deceived, was immediately embarrassed and walked away.

The face was restored, but the person was offended.

Fang Xinbai was overwhelmed, but the two people who caused the trouble were very calm.

His immediate boss Mu Qingyuan had a sullen face and remained silent. The rookie on his right also had a stern face and was angry. What a sin! He was stuck in the middle and was almost going crazy with anxiety.

After walking out of Ande's building, Fang Xinbai couldn't help but ask Jian Zhinian: "How do you know Ande only reached an agreement with the agency?"

Because I don't have authorization.

Jian Zhinian touched his nose and said, "I guessed."

Fang Xinbai didn't expect this answer. He thought Jian Zhinian was too bold and rude to talk nonsense in such an occasion. He immediately showed some of the dignity of a leader.

“Xiao Jian, when I take you out next time, watch more and don’t talk.”

Jian Zhinian readily agreed: "Okay, Mr. Fang."

Mu Qingyuan paused, looked at Fang Xinbai with cold eyes, and said, "You drive the car later."

Fang Xinbai inexplicably felt like he was being demoted...

When getting in the car, Jian Zhinian took into consideration that he was just a junior assistant and his immediate superior was driving, so he couldn't sit in the back seat and opened the passenger door.

"Come sit in the back!" Mu Qingyuan said in a deep voice.

Fang Xinbai looked at Jian Zhinian seriously. If he didn't come to his senses by now, he would not be driving tomorrow but sweeping the toilet.

Who exactly is this Jian Zhinian? Does Mr. Mu know him?

What the hell is this office play?

Jian Zhinian sat obediently in the back seat, huddled to one side, wishing he could be eight hundred miles away from Mu Qingyuan.

Mu Qingyuan folded his arms across his chest, leaned back in the chair, and said nothing with a sullen face.

Jian Zhinian knew he was in the wrong and didn't provoke him.

The low pressure along the way almost suffocated Fang Xinbai, the driver.

As soon as the car arrived at Mu’s, Mu Qingyuan got out.

"Jian Zhinian, come to my office!"

Leaving these words behind, Mu Qingyuan slammed the car door and went upstairs in the exclusive elevator.

Fang Xinbai and Jian Zhinian looked at each other, then entered the elevator.

Fang Xinbai tried to start a conversation easily, but he couldn't pronounce the name "Xiao Jian" anymore, so he simply skipped the name...

"Come to think of it, you know Mr. Mu..."

Jian Zhinian laughed dryly and said, "I know a little bit."

Fang Xinbai: ...

He seemed to suddenly remember that Mr. Jiang came to him yesterday to ask for coffee, but when he came back to make some, the person was gone.

Jian Zhinian said at the time that President Jiang had something urgent to do and left first...

"Boss Jiang, you know him too, right?"

"Who? Jiang Shaoqing?"

Fang Xinbu wanted to cry but had no tears: ...

So when you call Mr. Jiang's name, can you please not use that tone that sounds like you're calling him by name or give him a sense of oppression?

Ding-dong-

The sound of the elevator door opening saved Fang Xinbai.

"Secretary Fang, President Mu is looking for me, so I'll go over first." Jian Zhinian pointed to the president's office.

Fang Xinbai, who was about to collapse, said: "Go quickly."

Didn't he say anything wrong these two days?
