On the third day, Ye Chen took Su Ningshuang to a place he often went with his friends during winter and summer vacations when he was in school.

Ye Chen told Su Ningshuang about some things that happened during his high school years, and Su Ningshuang listened very carefully.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it's already the fourth day of the special challenge.

Originally, Ye Chen planned to drive Su Ningshuang to the neighboring city this morning.

However, before Ye Chen could even set off, he suddenly received a very important message.

Wasn't Ye Chen planning to deal with the Ye family in the capital in the future?

So, a few days ago, Ye Chen secretly sent people to investigate his current situation.

Unfortunately, as a top-tier wealthy family in Beijing, the Ye family is not so easy to find out about important information.

Ye Chen's men hadn't made any progress until just now.

Ye Chen's subordinate sent him a simple document and an address that wasn't entirely accurate.

Ye Chen opened the file and his expression changed slightly.

This news is quite important.

In recent years, the automotive industry, especially the new energy vehicle industry, has begun to develop.

More and more wealthy individuals, and even large corporations, are setting their sights on this exceptionally large market.

For example, some well-known mobile phone and home appliance manufacturers have started to manufacture cars.

The Ye family also set their sights on this huge market, so they sent key members to prepare to open a branch company and get involved in the new energy vehicle industry.

But since it's an unfamiliar industry, the Ye family certainly can't compete with those established new energy vehicle brands.

The Ye family had been trying to find a way to make up for this deficiency, until recently, when they set their sights on an important patent for a new energy vehicle that had just been applied for.

This important patent is currently unavailable from other new energy vehicle companies.

If the Ye family can acquire this patent, their advantage will increase dramatically.

This is a major secret of the Ye family, and Ye Chen's people only found out about it by chance.

Currently, the patent for this new energy vehicle is held by the managers of a small company in Zhonghai Province.

The Ye family will most likely send someone to buy it.

"The Ye family has taken a liking to them?"

After reviewing the general information, Ye Chen muttered something under his breath.

He naturally wanted to get involved in anything the Ye family set their sights on; he couldn't just watch the Ye family continue to develop as it was.

If this patent were in Beijing, it might cause a lot of trouble, since he doesn't have many connections or influence there.

Don't forget, this is Zhonghai Province, his hometown, not some unfamiliar capital city!

Putting aside everything else, just the members of Ye Chen's Ye Shen Invincible Supercar Club's Zhonghai Province branch alone could form an exceptionally terrifying network of connections in Zhonghai Province.

Since the patent for this new energy vehicle is in Zhonghai Province, then sorry, Ye Chen will take it!

Moreover, Ye Chen also needs patents for new energy vehicles, as he also owns car companies.

If the Ye family is interested in this patent, then its potential is definitely not small. Ye Chen will not lose money by buying it.

Just as Ye Chen was pondering, a message suddenly came from the game.

Ye Chen immediately clicked into the game.

【bite】

[Challenge issued: To thwart the Ye family's plan, secure this crucial new energy vehicle patent, and make it work for their own automaker]

[Challenge Reward: 5% stake in Kering Group]

Challenge Reward: 249 Experience Points

[Challenge Reward: 130 Mall Points]

Ye Chen's eyes lit up when he saw the game challenge.

That's great!

If even games are issuing challenges, Ye Chen is even more determined to acquire this new energy vehicle patent.

Not for anything else, but just for the challenge rewards, 5% of Kering Group's shares, experience points, and mall points are generous enough.

Even if that new energy vehicle patent were to sell for 10 billion, it would still be a huge profit for Ye Chen.

A 5% stake in Kaiyuan Group is worth two to three hundred billion, not to mention the mall points and experience points.

This challenge in the game is fantastic!

It's a pity that Ye Chen's people couldn't find out the specific information about the person who owns the patent for that new energy vehicle because the Ye family kept it so well secret.

The investigation revealed that the person who owned the patent was surnamed Guo.

He seemed to live in a high-end residential community called Jinxiu Mingyuan in Zhonghai Province, and nothing else.

"Jinxiu Mingyuan, that name sounds familiar..."

Ye Chen muttered to himself, feeling like he'd seen the name somewhere before.

Thinking it over, Ye Chen entered "Jinxiu Mingyuan" into his phone's navigation and started searching.

When Ye Chen saw the search results, he laughed.

What a coincidence! Yesterday, Ye Chen and Su Ningshuang went out and passed by this Jinxiu Mingyuan.

Since this upscale residential area is not far from here, in order to seize that patent from the Ye family and to complete the game challenge.

Ye Chen plans to go to Jinxiu Mingyuan in person right now.

Anyway, there's no time limit for the special challenges of going out for fun, so even if it's a little delayed and disrupts the Ye family's operations in the capital, it won't have much of an impact.

Ye Chen put away his phone and briefly spoke with Su Ningshuang.

Ye Chen told Su Ningshuang that the patent owned by the person living in Jinxiu Mingyuan was something he needed. Ye Chen planned to postpone his trip for a few hours and go to Jinxiu Mingyuan to investigate first.

Ye Chen did not tell Su Ningshuang about the Ye family in the capital.

Currently, only he and his grandfather know about the Ye family in Beijing; even his parents don't know.

Ye Chen was doing it for his family's good.

If the news were to leak out by accident, the consequences would be unimaginable. A crazy, top-tier wealthy family is far too dangerous.

"no problem........"

Su Ningshuang nodded immediately.

She naturally supported Ye Chen's career.

"Anyway, we have plenty of time during winter break. It's okay to finish this matter a few days later."

Su Ningshuang is quite reasonable.

"good."

"Let's go to Jinxiu Mingyuan now."

Ye Chen spoke.

Driving their Rolls-Royce Cullinan, Ye Chen and Su Ningshuang headed straight for Jinxiu Mingyuan.

Twenty minutes later, Ye Chen arrived at his destination.

......

(Skyfire: I'm so sorry, I had a headache all day and it was a struggle to finish this chapter. I'm taking a break and will make up for it tomorrow.)
