Chapter 145 Paid Work



"I don't believe you! I just called you and the line was busy! Why didn't you call me back right away?! Didn't I tell you that when a company is just starting out, there will be all kinds of troubles waiting for you to make decisions!

Even if you want to push everything onto me and be a hands-off boss, at least wait until the company is back on track, right?! Do I need to remind you? You're the boss of the company!

Chu Yinyin's voice came from the phone, and her tone sounded obviously angry.

Chen Yan touched the tip of his nose slightly embarrassedly, and couldn't help but feel a little hot on his face for a moment.

He could understand why Chu Yinyin wanted to lose her temper.

Just as Chu Yinyin said, he was the big boss of the company, and Chu Yinyin was only helping him out of friendship.

As a result, he, the big boss of the company, is nowhere to be seen all day long, but he lets Chu Yinyin, who is just here to help, run around. This is totally unacceptable.

Put yourself in her shoes. If anyone swapped places with Chu Yinyin, they would probably be so angry that they would quit their job on the spot, right?

"Well... I just got back and saw the text message notification on my phone. It turned out to be a call from my mom. I don't live with my parents, and if I don't call them right away, they might start to overthink things and worry about me. So I called them first to let them know I was safe. I just finished the call. I was actually planning to call you when you called. I swear to God, I'm not lying."

Chen Yan said with a wry smile.

There was a sudden silence on the other end of the phone. After a few seconds, Chu Yinyin's voice rang out again: "Did you just call your parents?"

"Yes, I live far away from home, so I have to keep in touch with them. Actually, things are much better now. When I first graduated and started working, my mother insisted that I call her every night. She said that this way she would know that I was doing well every day and that she would feel at ease.

But you know the nature of our work. When I first started as a warehouse manager, I often worked day and night shifts, and on my days off, all I wanted was to sleep. Later, when I moved to scheduling, I had even less personal time. My work phone had to be on 24/7.

The outsourcing companies are also sometimes ridiculous. When their drivers arrive at the delivery location and can't find a loader to unload the truck, they give them my phone number and ask them to contact me directly. What's the point of contacting me? I don't work with any agents.

Those drivers didn't care what time it was; they'd sometimes call you in the middle of the night. And the problem was, they all spoke in dialect, babble non-stop, and I couldn't understand a word they said. At one point, I was so busy I had a nervous breakdown and started hearing voices.

Tsk... I've strayed off topic. Anyway, with this kind of work, expecting a fixed schedule is a pipe dream. So I didn't stick with it for long before I told my parents I just couldn't remember to call them, and then I changed it to once a week."

As Chen Yan was talking, he suddenly felt like he was chatting with Chu Yinyin about family matters, so he quickly stopped talking and brought the topic back to where it had gone off track.

He didn't know what was wrong with him, but he felt very relaxed when chatting with Chu Yinyin, so the content of the conversation often became like a long phone call with all sorts of distractions...

"That's how the logistics industry works. 24/7, there's no such thing as a 9-to-5 job. But since you don't live with your parents, you do need to call home often when you're away. Okay, enough of that, let's get down to business."

There was a slight change in Chu Yinyin's tone, and she didn't sound angry at all.

Although Chen Yan didn't quite understand why Chu Yinyin's mood had changed like this, he was relieved that Chu Yinyin no longer pursued the issue of him being a hands-off boss.

So he nodded quickly and said, "I wonder what instructions Mr. Chu has? Please tell me what you want! I will do what I can do, and I will find a way to do what I can't do!"

"Stop talking nonsense! I tried the large language model you gave me before. Although I'm not a professional, based on my personal experience, I think the large language model you provided is better than other similar products on the market! To be honest, I was surprised and even shocked.

When you told me you wanted to start your own business on AI language models, I thought you were just daydreaming. But after using your product, I realized you're truly amazing and that I was too narrow-minded. I must apologize for my previous attitude!

Chen Yan coughed dryly and said embarrassedly: "No need, that's not your problem. If I were in your shoes, I would also question it, so don't take it to heart."

"No, if it's wrong, it's wrong. If you know you're wrong, you have to admit it! In short, I think highly of your large language model, but I'm not a professional after all, so I can't give a professional judgment. I originally wanted to find a few professionals to take a look, but then I remembered that your trial version cannot be leaked, so I gave up the idea.

Despite this, I remain confident in your large language model. So, through my father's help, I urgently hired finance and operations staff and began negotiating server and bandwidth support. This large language model is already mature and ready for market release.

The only reason you're holding off on releasing it is because the initial funding hasn't come through yet, right? I've personally provided a loan to your company so you can get started quickly. Once your funding is secured, you can repay me on behalf of your company.

I asked the finance manager my father recommended, and he said this was fine and that he would handle the accounts. "This is what I want to tell you! I originally wanted to ask for your opinion, but I couldn't get in touch with you! I didn't know how much longer it would take, so I just decided to do it first and ask for your opinion later!"

Chu Yinyin said everything she wanted to say in one breath.

Chen Yan was slightly startled and asked in confusion, "You lent money to the company in your own name? How much did you borrow?"

"It's not much, just one million. This amount of money is definitely not enough for your company's promotion expenses. But in the early stages, just setting up the company's platform and completing the preparatory work should not be a problem."

Holy crap, one million?!

Chen Yan was shocked.

This is no longer free work, this is paid work!

Blinking his eyes, Chen Yan suddenly said, "Yinyin, I think... why don't the company just not pay back the money..."

"Is your initial capital not much? That's fine, take it and use it. If it's not enough, I have more here. Although my pocket money is not particularly large, it will be no problem to take another five million or so."

Chu Yinyin on the other end of the phone said without any hesitation.

Chen Yan's heart warmed, and he smiled and said, "What I mean is...this one million can be considered as your investment, okay?"
