Early the next morning, Chen Yan took out two boxes of sea cucumbers, two boxes of abalone, several kilograms of tea and bird's nests from his portable warehouse, plus a whole box of Feitian tea. Before Chu Yinyin came to pick him up, he called a courier to pick up the items.
The earliest couriers in Qindao start working is 7:30 AM. While the fees are high, the service is excellent and reliable, unlike the chaotic management of some courier companies that rely on low prices and high volume to gain market share.
The things Chen Yan was going to mail to his home were high-value and expensive items, so it was naturally impossible for him to choose unreliable express companies just to save on express fees.
And to ensure that nothing goes wrong, he has to buy insurance.
A box of Feitian fish alone cost nearly 20,000 yuan, and two boxes of dried sea cucumbers cost about 10,000 yuan. The tea, bird's nest and fine abalone were also very valuable, so he simply insured them for 50,000 yuan.
The insurance fee and the courier fee together cost him about three hundred...
Since the money on the card was almost gone, Chen Yan gave the money directly in cash.
The courier was obviously stunned when he received the cash.
I've long been accustomed to the convenience of electronic payments, and I don't have any change in my pocket. As a result, the courier had to scan Chen Yan's payment code to get the change...
What the hell is going on?
After finishing everything, he helped the courier load the items into the truck and watched it leave. Seeing that it was only ten minutes until eight o'clock, Chen Yan was too lazy to go upstairs again.
The reason why the things he mailed home were not many, at most about one twentieth of Sun Fulin’s things, was mainly because he was afraid that if he mailed too much at one time, it would scare his parents.
Sea cucumbers, abalone and bird's nests are mainly used to maintain the body.
At the same time, his parents also have the habit of drinking tea, but they usually just drink some cheap loose tea at home.
I didn't send cigarettes by mail because no one in the family smokes, but his father likes to drink and basically drinks about two taels of alcohol with every meal.
He doesn't drink much, but he eats it with every meal except breakfast. So if he mails a box of Feitian, I guess his dad will be able to hide it like a treasure.
Due to the fact that he was not well off at the moment, Chen Yan did not send any money home.
It’s not too late to consider this after the company is established and has start-up capital and is really on the right track.
Besides, Chen Yan knew very well that even if he sent money home, his parents would probably be reluctant to spend it given their personalities. It would be better to just mail things home.
Before long, five minutes before eight o'clock, a 2.0-liter Buick LaCrosse stopped in front of Chen Yan.
This is the car provided by the company to Chu Yinyin.
In the entire company, only Chu Yinyin, the vice president, and the company boss have their own dedicated cars.
Unlike Chu Yinyin's car, the company boss's car is a 3.0-liter Boulevard.
Whether it is the LaCrosse or the Boulevard, if they were put on the market ten years ago, they might still be considered relatively good cars. However, nowadays, people with a little ambition may not be interested in them.
"Why did you come downstairs and wait so early? I was thinking of calling you and asking you to come downstairs after I got there."
Chu Yinyin lowered the rear window and opened the rear door while speaking, motioning Chen Yan to get in.
Seeing this, Chen Yan, who had originally wanted to sit in the passenger seat, had no choice but to sit in the back seat.
Chen Yan knew the driver, who was a veteran in the company's driver class who drove specifically for the vice president.
After the previous vice president was transferred, although Chu Yinyin was a new official, she had no intention of changing the driver.
After all, it is not a government unit, so it is not that sensitive and there is no need to play the drama of a new emperor and new ministers.
"I happened to be up early, so I came down without anything else to do. If I had waited until you arrived to call, it would have been a waste of time. Your schedule is so tight this time, so time must be tight. There's no need to dawdle."
After Chen Yan closed the car door, he first greeted the driver, and then answered Chu Yinyin's question with a smile.
Chu Yinyin just asked casually, so she naturally didn't really care why Chen Yan was waiting downstairs in advance.
Following Chen Yan's response, he changed the subject and said, "You asked me to help you register your company yesterday, and I've already arranged for someone to do it. However, the scope of the registration you provided is too broad, and it involves the internet, so it will take some time."
Chen Yan waved his hand and said, "Don't worry. The company's startup capital hasn't arrived yet anyway. It's fine as long as we can get it registered before the middle of next month."
Chu Yinyin asked curiously, "By the way, what exactly is your entrepreneurial project? It's a high-tech company, and it's internet-related. Have you found a new outlet? If it's convenient, could you tell me about it? Of course, if it involves company secrets, forget it."
Chen Yan said nonchalantly, "What's confidential about this? The first business we have to do after the company is founded must be something that can be a hit. So I plan to start with AI and develop a large language model similar to ChatGPT. Of course, the AI's intelligence must be better than ChatGPT, at least two iterations ahead."
Chu Yinyin's face suddenly looked dazed.
After staring at Chen Yan stupidly for a while, he instinctively wanted to reach out and check if Chen Yan's forehead had a fever.
However, as soon as he stretched out his hand, Chen Yan subconsciously avoided it.
"What are you doing?"
"Nothing, I just wanted to see if you were possessed. Do you know what you're talking about? A large language model? Do you know how much it costs to develop something like that? Besides the money, it also requires a powerful database to support it! Aside from the leading internet companies in China, other companies simply don't have the resources to develop something like that!"
Chu Yinyin said speechlessly.
Chen Yan shrugged and said, "How do you know if you don't try? You should always have dreams. What if they come true?"
Chu Yinyin held her forehead with her hand and said tiredly, "Dreams are indeed important. I also believe that the more a dream is ridiculed, the more worthwhile it is to achieve. But everything must be based on logic. If you can't move forward towards your dream step by step with your feet on the ground, but instead aspire to become rich overnight, then the dream will always remain just a dream. Do you understand?"
Chen Yan nodded and said, "Of course I understand. Don't worry, once my large language model is developed, I'll make sure you're the first to try it out."
Chu Yinyin said weakly: "That's not what I meant..."
Chen Yan asked knowingly, "What do you mean?"
Chu Yinyin took a deep breath, adjusted her mood, and said as calmly as possible, "Forget it. In our country, all companies have limited liability. There are no unlimited liability companies. Even if the company goes bankrupt, the impact on you won't be that big. You can just come back and continue to do scheduling."
