Chapter 406 Persuading Someone to Resign

Time passed slowly.

Soon, it was time for Yuyan to raise funds again.

The timeframe is very short, before Yuyan receives any other new orders.

Everyone is eager to get started.

If Yuyan secures new orders later, its valuation will surge, requiring even more capital to enter the market then. Therefore, it's best to act now!

Of course, some companies declined the offer after studying the details in the Yuyan announcement and assessing their own capabilities.

However, these are the minority. Most families think that it's not bad to just join in the fun. They know that the competition is fierce this time, with representatives from big companies going, but what if they can find a bargain?

Just like Fu Jinyan before.

A big pancake fell from the sky and hit him on the head.

So, on this day, a large crowd gathered.

When Shi Nian got off the bus with Xiao Yu, there were even more people at Yu Yan's place than last time.

"Wow!" Xiaoyu exclaimed instinctively.

Shi Nian smiled.

Xiaoyu immediately covered her mouth in embarrassment.

Shi Nian waved his hand to indicate that he was fine.

A car stopped nearby, the door opened, and Li Tongruo stepped out.

"Ruoruo," Shi Nian greeted.

Li Tongruo smiled and greeted Shi Nian. Qin Zhihuan also came over to greet the two of them.

All three of them had assistants with them.

"How did it go?" Qin Zhihuan asked directly, "Are we able to get on the bus with Yu Yan this time?"

"The probability is almost zero," Shi Nian said directly.

Qin Zhihuan clutched his heart, looking very hurt.

This amused Li Tongruo, who rolled her eyes at him.

"Don't roll your eyes at me. The whole industry knows about the time you rolled your eyes at Fu Jinyan. You've got a new nickname now, not 'Tongruo,' but 'Baiyanruo' (meaning 'eye-rolling Ruo')." Qin Zhihuan said, shrugging his shoulders. "If you ask me, it all means the same thing."

"That's enough." Li Tongruo moved closer to Shi Nian.

The three of them joked with each other as they walked inside.

We met various families along the way and greeted each other; at least on the surface, things were all polite.

Once inside, they found that Fu Jinyan had already arrived and immediately came out to greet them.

Li Tongruo, remembering her new nickname, rolled her eyes at Fu Jinyan again.

This left Fu Jinyan completely bewildered.

Qin Zhihuan, standing next to him, burst into laughter.

Shi Nian almost couldn't hold back either.

"What's wrong?" Fu Jinyan scratched his head.

"It's nothing," Shi Nian said with a smile.

Fu Jinyan was still puzzled and wanted to ask something when someone led the way past.

He is a member of the Huo family.

Huo Yanmo didn't come; instead, the head of the investment department came, along with a middle-aged man whom others called Director Wu.

Shi Nian knew that Huo Yanmo was definitely up to no good.

A little bit mischievous.

Director Wu stopped when he saw Shi Nian, a strange smile on his face.

“Ms. Shi,” Director Wu said, “It’s a pleasure to meet you. I am Wu Dechang.”

The person on the side immediately handed over their business card.

Shi Nian took the business card, glanced at it, and nodded with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Wu, I am Shi Nian, nice to meet you."

After saying that, Xiaoyu understood what Shi Nian meant and handed Shi Nian's business card to Wu Dechang.

Wu Dechang narrowed his eyes as he sized up Shi Nian.

But Shi Nian just smiled.

He just deliberately put on an air of superiority, casually asking his assistant to hand him his business card, which is the way an elder would treat a younger person.

However, Shi Nian directly pulled her peers.

There is give and take.

This displeased Wu Dechang.

But Fu Jinyan spoke up directly: "Aren't you going to answer?"

“I also have a business card, Mr. Wu, would you like it?” Fu Jinyan said casually, reaching into his pants pocket.

Fu Jinyan took out his business card, thought for a moment, and handed it to Xiaoyu, asking her to give it to Wu Dechang as well.

"By the way, my name is Fu Jinyan." After giving Fu Jinyan the name, he added this sentence.

Those watching twitched their lips slightly.

Who doesn't know your name is Fu Jinyan!

Wu Dechang was also annoyed, as Fu Jinyan was clearly on Shi Nian's side!

So he could only accept the business card and force a smile, saying, "Hello, everyone."

He then nodded to Li Tongruo and Qin Zhihuan beside him.

"Are you all interested in Yuyan?" Wu Dechang asked.

"Otherwise what?" Fu Jinyan retorted.

This left Wu Dechang speechless.

Wu Dechang couldn't stand it any longer, so he said he had something to do and left with his men.

Shi Nian almost couldn't help but laugh.

Fu Jinyan is truly skilled at roasting people. As mentioned before, the roasting course that costs 700 yuan per session must be taught by Fu Jinyan.

“The price has gone up now. If you want to learn from me, it will cost 800.” As if he could see what Shi Nian was thinking, Fu Jinyan added.

Shi Nian smiled and led the group inside.

They left quickly, but Lu Xinyi, surrounded by the crowd, only had a cold smile on her lips.

Let's see how long they can be so smug.

As long as she brings the Lu family into the picture, she can use the Lu family's resources to kick Shi Nian out of Yu Yan!

Laugh now, but you won't be laughing for long.

Thinking about it, Lu Xinyi glanced at her assistant.

The assistant immediately sent the photo of Fu Jinyan standing out that she had just taken to Sun Jiaming.

However, Sun Jiaming did not reply.

...

The number of people working at Yuyan is increasing.

It was almost completely full.

We originally planned to hold the meeting in a conference room, but now everyone has to sit in the lobby.

Shi Nian sat with Fu Jinyan, Li Tongruo, and Qin Zhihuan.

Xu Cheng opened the door and walked in.

"You're all so enthusiastic," Xu Cheng said with a smile. "But this time we only plan to raise 150 million, so most of you will probably leave disappointed. I apologize in advance."

Xu Cheng had barely finished speaking when someone in the crowd spoke up.

"Mr. Xu, 150 million is too little. Can we raise more?"

This person's words were agreed upon by countless people, who echoed his sentiments.

However, Xu Cheng did not budge.

"I apologize, everyone," Xu Cheng said. "The company has internal plans, and I hope you can understand."

Although everyone was disappointed, they didn't say much.

Everyone knows that Yuyan's valuation will surge, so it's normal that they don't want equity dilution or to offer too much profit.

“There are too many people now. I think we should do a screening first…” Xu Cheng said, beginning to discourage some people from leaving.

Not many people stayed behind and entered the meeting room; most people are now unable to go in.

"I apologize, everyone. If Yuyan develops well in the future, we will still seek financing. I hope you will support us then. Now you can all go back," Xu Cheng said with a smile.

"We want to stay and take a look."

"Yeah, I want to see who comes out on top in the end."

"Yes, my boss also asked me to stay and get first-hand information."

The people here don't want to leave; after all, it's a huge lively place.

Moreover, they had already prepared themselves mentally when they came, knowing that their chances were slim and that they were just there to watch the excitement.

Now that we're here, how can we leave now?

We need to wait for at least one result.
