"Young Master must have had a very enjoyable time last night, right?"

On her way to the company, Su Lin couldn't help but mutter sourly.

To be honest, she's been being sarcastic and sarcastic more and more lately, and she even adds extra vinegar when cooking, which perfectly reflects her mental state.

But she just felt uncomfortable... Actually, she herself found it strange. When the young master was neglecting his duties before, the situation wasn't much better, but she didn't seem to feel anything at the time.

This change in mindset could be described as a shift in focus? In the past, she had to think more about how to clean up the mess left by the young master, and how to prevent him from being devoured by the old foxes in the company... Now that she doesn't have to worry about these things, the things she cares about are naturally different.

However, she didn't know what she was thinking. It was hard to say whether she was unaware of it or unwilling to think about it. But she definitely felt a sense of crisis. Now, when Xu Shi needed people to do things, he didn't necessarily have to rely on her. Didn't he even choose her out last time?

Um……

Which aspect are you referring to?

Xu Shi knew what she was thinking. The seemingly indifferent Director Su was actually very easy to understand. When she couldn't suppress her emotions, they were written all over her face... Especially the expression on her face when she told Gu Yi to tidy up the house before leaving. Not only did it scare the little black rabbit into nodding repeatedly, but he also secretly clicked his tongue a few times in his heart.

But he's shameless; even knowing this, he doesn't shy away from asking and instead inquires with great interest.

"It's about... cracking down on 'Spark'?"

Su Lin was taken aback by his question, and after a while, she replied irritably, "Is the young master's biggest threat completely resolved? And you've even established your authority in Sin City, and the various companies in Night City are also... Isn't that something to be happy about?"

She couldn't very well say it was because of something between the young master and Gu Yi, could she? Anyway, she couldn't bring herself to say it, so she had no choice but to change the subject.

"If that's the case, then of course."

Xu Shi smiled and stopped teasing her. "But it wasn't just because of 'Spark'... In fact, only after actually doing this did I realize how arduous it was to personally arrange all of this."

"So, I also want to thank you for your help all this time, Su Lin."

That's the truth. You don't know how expensive food is until you're in charge of the household... I'm so busy every day now, it's nothing like the carefree days of eating, drinking and having fun before.

That was because Su Lin was there to support them; it's fair to say she sacrificed so much for the family.

"What kind of reward do you want? Anything is fine with you."

"...This is just my duty, young master, you flatter me."

Hearing him say that, Director Su felt much better.

Actually, she's quite easy to please. She was rescued by Xu Shi, and she's happy to be able to help him. She's even too embarrassed to ask for any reward.

Although she didn't know what the consequences of such concessions would be, Su Lin muttered a few words to herself.

You're really disappointing, Su Lin. Is that all you're capable of?

What else can we do...?

...

For Xu Shi, taking a half-day break and having some fun is enough.

There's a lot he needs to do. With the advent of "Twins," "Snake Ring" has entered a new phase, completely shaking off its previous somewhat hollow and sluggish state, and is now working intensively on the mass production of chips, keeping him extremely busy.

This was followed by a dramatic reversal in his personal reputation—he's now truly considered an outstanding young entrepreneur, and before he even had a chance to build momentum with "Imaginary Numbers," he was already being lauded to the skies on the internet.

Previously criticized scandals have become virtues in this public opinion environment. Living a life of debauchery, speeding, and driving iParts? Please, this is called balancing work and leisure, okay?

It can only be said that when people want to praise someone, their shortcomings are always minimized. Of course, Xu Shi didn't consider these shortcomings at all.

Fortunately, as a long-established company, there is no need to worry about production capacity. Even if they take on all the orders, it will still be a piece of cake for "Snake Ring".

For them, resources are not the issue; the real question is how to make the most of them.

However, Xu Shi did not intend to fulfill all of these orders.

Whether production capacity can keep up is one thing; whether to sell all the manufactured goods is another.

Whether you call this hoarding or scarcity marketing, the underlying principle remains unchanged: only things that are restricted can generate greater value.

For example, suppose there are ten customers, each wanting one hundred chips, but Chairman Xu regretfully says that he can only provide nine hundred chips in total. What would be the consequences?

Naturally, everyone had no choice but to hold their noses and beg him to sell them the goods first, at a higher price.

There's no need to worry about being isolated in return; the truth is, it's simply impossible. The value of "Twins" is obvious to everyone. Their function and ease of use are currently irreplaceable, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they're necessities for the new version. Anyone who tries to be stubborn at this time is a fool, because the issue isn't how much money you spend to get them, but whether you can get them at all.

The key is to get in sync with Xie Qingyan first. As the only two suppliers of this technology, we can't afford to lose our balance, or we'll be in trouble... Fortunately, that dog woman is just as adept at this. The two of them are on the same page and can reach an agreement with just one phone call.

As for whether there will be negative impacts such as black market transactions, it can only be said that there will definitely be, but such things are not within Xu Shi's consideration.

What does this have to do with me? Those wicked capitalists only care about profit, hehe.

However, there are exceptions, such as "Shark Tooth".

At the very least, He Yuqiang didn't make any statement about himself at the previous party, and even now that the first batch of chips is about to be shipped, there's still no word from him.

At first glance, it seems like the second-in-command is unwilling to bow down to the eldest, but Xu Shi knows that the core of the problem is not there. When "Snake Ring" was in a slump before, they didn't catch up, so it's even more impossible now that they're going all out.

The problem still lies in the relationship between "Shark Tooth", "Prism", and "Snake Ring". Coupled with the factional struggles within "Shark Tooth", it is inevitable that the two brothers would have some concerns.

So he wasn't in a hurry. He was never the one who needed to be anxious; when the time came, what was meant to come would come naturally.

Before he could finish speaking, he received a call from He Laosan.

"Old Xu, are you at the company? I have something I'd like to discuss with you in person."

...

See? The "wait and see" approach has failed miserably.
