Chapter 251: Business Marriage
"Can you really take me to play with Nuan Bao tomorrow?!"
Jiang Ranran ran around the room excitedly. He had been really frustrated these past two days.
"Your dad is so busy. How did you get by when I was not around?" Xiang Nuan couldn't help but feel curious and distressed when she saw his excitement.
Her question actually stunned Jiang Ranran. He almost forgot the past days, as if the life like this with someone to accompany him, to love him, and to play with him had always been like this.
Fortunately, he was not conflicted. He tilted his little head and began to look forward to tomorrow.
"Uncle Han came here when you were away."
"Well, Uncle Huo told me. I would like to hear your opinion on this issue." Xiang Nuan looked at him seriously and said.
"The show?"
"Yes. There are so many people who like you, and there is a long line of people who want to invite you to their shows. What do you think?"
Jiang Ranran didn't think about it seriously, but pursed her lips and her expression gradually darkened.
"What's wrong?" Xiang Nuan was startled, not understanding why his mood changed so suddenly.
"If I don't record the show, will you leave?" Jiang Ranran had a tense face and pouted her lips, obviously trying hard to restrain herself.
Xiang Nuan never thought that the first person to break this window paper was Jiang Ranran. It is said that children are the most sensitive, they know everything you think they don't understand. Especially for someone like Ranran, who seems carefree, but is actually very fragile inside.
Her instinct told her that she should say something to comfort him, something to put his mind at ease, but she couldn't open her mouth. What he said was true, and what he was worried about was also true.
"I don't know." She shrugged. "I haven't figured out what to do next."
"Then stay!" Jiang Ranran hugged her and said, "Stay with us, forever."
Xiang Nuan smiled and hugged him tightly.
"Adult matters are complicated. I don't want to lie to you. You are a man, and you will gradually understand that adults sometimes do things against their will and encounter things that go against their wishes."
"Yeah." Jiang Ranran nodded, and her heart also became heavy.
Seeing him suddenly look so mature, Xiang Nuan couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Then come back and tell me, what do you think about recording the show?"
"record."
"ah?"
"If you haven't figured it out yet, we'll keep recording. Once you figure it out and don't have to do anything against your will, we'll stop recording."
Xiang Nuan was stunned for a moment, unable to imagine that these were Jiang Ranran's words. This little heart was so strong, and her frail shoulders could take on such a strong responsibility. This was much more powerful than Jiang Yunhui's love words, and she was almost moved to tears.
"What did your father feed you since you were a child? Why are you so precocious?!"
"What's cooked?"
Xiang Nuan burst into laughter, hugged his neck and rubbed his face hard.
…
"Wow——" Jiang Ranran's eyes widened. He thought playing with Nuanbao was just running and jumping around, but he didn't expect Nuanbao's father to bring them to visit his company.
Knowing that Duan Chenming was engaged in the development of intelligent products, Jiang Ranran thought it was just a robot or something like that. But when he arrived, he saw so many new and interesting things that Jiang Ranran was almost stunned.
"I'll take you to see it!" Nuanbao was so proud that he pulled Ranran and ran away.
"Why--"
Xiang Nuan wanted to stop him, but her voice couldn't keep up with Ran Ran's speed as he ran away.
"You guys chat, I'll go and accompany the two children." Chen Jiayu patted her on the shoulder to reassure her.
"I am not..."
"Come on, just talk about yourselves."
Chen Jiayu was so smart that she guessed that her real purpose was not to drink, which made her feel embarrassed. She just mentioned on the phone yesterday that Ran Ran had been thinking about her since the robot competition, and she could sense her feelings. The more Xiang Nuan got to know her, the more she admired her insight.
"Let's follow slowly. I'll take you to visit our company's products." Duan Chenming led Xiang Nuan.
"Aren't you afraid of leaks?"
“Secrets will not be on display.”
"Hahaha, that's right."
The two chatted briskly as they walked. Duan Chenming's company focused on the research and development of intelligent products, and robot applications were just one of its businesses. Xiang Nuan certainly didn't understand these high technologies, but she knew that Baotong Industrial and Santong Electronics were also involved in the field of intelligent products.
"Our company is new, with less experience and smaller scale than those old players, but we are more flexible and innovative, so we can gain a foothold in the market." Duan Chenming introduced the company in detail: "I was fortunate to be able to record the last robot competition. I really want to thank you for your help. The company's reputation has increased a lot."
"We are taking advantage of your knowledge and charm. I feel like Ranran has really blossomed since he started learning from you. He rarely sat down and focused on one thing before, but now he will tinker with his robot for a long time, and even look up information on his own to solve problems."
It was clearly just business compliments, but he could hear the sincerity in their words. Duan Chenming looked at Xiang Nuan and laughed heartily.
"Then we can watch and talk at the same time?"
Duan Chenming talked endlessly about the company's development history. Xiang Nuan listened attentively and didn't feel bored at all. She even asked questions from time to time, and some of them were quite professional. Of course, she didn't forget to gossip or talk about the interesting things about Santong Electronics, the leader in this industry.
"I always thought it was a marriage of strength, but I didn't expect it to be a marriage of interests."
Xiang Nuan smacked her lips. This was the biggest news she had heard today.
She once thought that Jiang Chao and Jin Nuoyi's marriage was a capital reorganization of Baotong Industry and Santong Electronics. Now she knows that Baotong Industry was not successful in entering the smart industry and lost to Santong Electronics in the business competition. In order not to be eaten by the other party, the shrewd Jiang Shan "sacrificed" his son Jiang Chao's marriage, which was exchanged for the redistribution of the interests of both parties.
Tsk tsk, for a moment I didn’t know whether I should sympathize with Jiang Chao.
"The term 'marriage alliance' is a bit harsh," Duan Chenming was amused again. Xiang Nuan's characterization was really accurate and refreshing. "Santong Electronics can't be the only one in the market. If there is a market monopoly, it will definitely become a target of public criticism. It also needs a balance of power, both strong cooperation and risk sharing, so Baotong, which is equally powerful, is the best target."
"A good match?"
"Haha, I can understand it that way."
Xiang Nuan sighed for Jiang Chao from the bottom of her heart. His reputation as a romantic man in the world was wasted. It turns out that he is also in the business world and cannot help himself. She couldn't help but think of his first marriage, when he chose the venture capital queen Ye Ning and sacrificed Liu Yunshan. At that time, he was probably just a pawn in the family's interest game, right? !
Does Liu Yunshan know?
She risked her career to give birth to Hani. Was she also betting on Jiang Chao's true love for her?
"Did they fight fiercely at that time?" Xiang Nuan continued to ask.
"What?"
"The Jin and Jiang families."
"Oh, it should be said that the Jiang family lost miserably, otherwise they wouldn't have married, as you said."
This time it was Xiang Nuan who couldn't help herself, the word was indeed a bit harsh.
