"Mr. Ye, let me introduce you. This is Hu Mingye, a famous wealthy businessman."

Ning Zhengqing pointed to a middle-aged man wearing glasses next to him and introduced him.

"Hello, Mr. Ye."

After Ning Zhengqing finished speaking, Hu Mingye immediately spoke up and greeted him with utmost politeness.

"I had heard President Ning mention Mr. Ye before, and meeting him today, Mr. Ye is indeed handsome, distinguished, and a truly remarkable person..."

Faced with Hu Mingye's frank words, Ning Zhengqing and Meng Deping both nodded repeatedly, indicating that Hu Mingye was absolutely right.

They agreed wholeheartedly.

"Hello."

Ye Chen nodded.

"Mr. Ning, Mr. Hu, I am Meng Deping."

Without Ye Chen's introduction, Meng Deping spoke up on his own initiative.

After getting to know each other, the four of them started talking about serious business.

Hu Mingye has been working in Hangzhou for many years and knows many talented people in the technology industry. In today's society, with the rapid development of technology, working in the technology industry is definitely a good choice.

So Hu Mingye had the idea of ​​starting a technology company.

However, because Hu Mingye also had many businesses, he simply couldn't raise enough start-up capital.

After getting a general understanding of Hu Mingye's situation, Meng Deping also briefly introduced himself.

The other side had connections, and Meng Deping had financial resources; it was a perfect match.

Moreover, with Ye Chen and Ning Zhengqing as witnesses, it is even more credible.

Finally, after more than an hour of discussion, a preliminary plan was finalized.

Hu Mingye and Meng Deping jointly established a technology company.

The initial capital was around seven or eight billion to ten billion.

Hu Mingye provided the plan and a small amount of funding, primarily targeting internet technology talent.

Meng Deping contributed the majority of the funds, and the two split the company shares equally.

Furthermore, to express their gratitude to Ye Chen and Ning Zhengqing, Hu Mingye and Meng Deping agreed to each contribute 15% of their shares to Ye Chen and Ning Zhengqing.

Make Ye Chen and Ning Zhengqing directors of the company.

With the addition of two important figures, Ye Chen and Ning Zhengqing, the company's future prospects are definitely bright.

Under the strong invitation of Meng Deping and Hu Mingye, Ye Chen and Ning Zhengqing could not refuse.

Thus, this technology company was founded by four people.

Meng Deping provided the funding, Hu Mingye recruited talent and managed the company, and Ye Chen and Ning Zhengqing were essentially just figureheads in the company.

Everything is settled.

Tian Zixiong returned before Ye Chen left Linglong Pavilion.

Because two billion is not a small amount for him, Tian Zixiong cannot come up with it in a short time; he needs time.

Therefore, Tian Zixiong could only give Ye Chen a portion of the compensation. He would prepare the remaining amount within a few days and then personally deliver it to Ye Chen.

After seeing Ye Chen off, Tian Zixiong finally breathed a long sigh of relief.

That damned Shen Yunlei, he truly regrets entrusting the management of this top-tier teahouse to him because of his mistress's pillow talk.

Now, he's lost an astronomical amount of money.

However, looking at it from another perspective, he didn't lose out by getting to know Mr. Ye through this opportunity.

.........

Back at the Four Seasons Hotel West Lake, Ye Chen suddenly thought of something.

Last time I went on a road trip with Su Ningshuang, we didn't have enough time to enjoy ourselves.

Now that it's winter break, there's plenty of time.

Anyway, there's still some time before the Su family's annual meeting, and my parents, as well as Su Ningshuang's parents, will be coming to Hangzhou in a while.

Why not take advantage of this time to go out and have some fun, and enjoy a nice road trip?

After returning to the villa, Ye Chen told Su Ningshuang about his idea.

"Okay, okay."

Su Ningshuang nodded; of course she was willing to go out and have fun.

Ye Chen and Su Ningshuang made a plan together: they would go to Suzhou first and visit the remaining attractions from their last trip.

Then check the time and decide whether to go somewhere else.

"By the way, Ye Chen, should I ask Ling'er to come along?"

Su Ningshuang had just finished chatting with Su Ling'er half an hour ago, so she subconsciously asked:

"Ling'er just complained on the phone that she wants to take advantage of her last holiday to have some fun."

Su Ling'er is a sophomore in high school this year, and this winter vacation has been relatively easy for her.

But if she finishes the second year of high school, she will have to start preparing for the third year starting next summer, and at that time, she won't have any time at all.

"Sure."

Ye Chen nodded.

"By the way, why didn't Ling'er come to Hangzhou with us?"

Ye Chen asked in surprise.

When Ye Chen and Su Ningshuang came to Hangzhou, Su Ling'er was by their side.

Every time Ye Chen and Su Ningshuang went out, Su Ling'er would eagerly follow them, but this time when they came to Hangzhou, Su Ling'er was unusually cold and even a little strange.

At the time, Ye Chen thought Su Ling'er was preparing to study hard at home during the winter break to prepare for her senior year of high school.

However, it now seems that Ye Chen was overthinking things.

"Hmm... Ling'er dislikes Hangzhou a bit."

Su Ningshuang explained.

Logically speaking, most of the Su family's businesses are located in Hangzhou, because Su Ningshuang's father is not valued by the family, and the old man dotes on this son too much.

That's why he was sent to Jiangzhou to manage the local industries.

Of the old man's four sons, only Su Ningshuang's father lived in Jiangzhou.

Why is Su Ling'er and her mother in Jiangzhou, while Su Ling'er's father, Su Guangyuan, the fourth son of the Su family, is in Hangzhou?

In fact, Su Ling'er's parents had a serious disagreement because of certain things.

Su Ling'er's mother then moved to Jiangzhou with Su Ling'er.

"I see."

Ye Chen nodded. This was a matter concerning Su Ling'er's family, and Ye Chen shouldn't ask too many questions.

Afterwards, Su Ningshuang and Su Ling'er made contact.

Su Ling'er met up with Ye Chen and Su Ningshuang in a city next to Hangzhou.

"By the way, should we invite Shuxuan along?"

Su Ningshuang continued to ask.

"Next time, definitely next time."

Thinking back to the last road trip, where the three women made a scene, Ye Chen felt a headache coming on.

If the three of them get together again this time, Ye Chen definitely won't be able to stand it.

Let's wait until next time.

This road trip is off.

When we get back from our trip, Ye Chen will bring his older sister to Hangzhou for a visit, and he'll cover all the expenses.

The Rolls-Royce Cullinan I bought on my last road trip is still sitting in Yeyuan, Suzhou. Now I need to get a new SUV.

With the idea of ​​not wasting resources and keeping things simple and low-key, Ye Chen set off from Sheng Hai Entertainment Group in an ordinary Bentley Bentayga.

With everything prepared, Ye Chen and Su Ningshuang set off that very day.

That evening, Ye Chen, Su Ningshuang, and Su Ling'er met in the next city.

The three decided to rest for one night in a neighboring city before setting off again the next day.
