Chapter 142: Graduation ~ After two years of studying abroad, I can at least do research when I come back...
Chapter 142 Graduation~
The toy exhibition in Hong Kong only lasts three days.
On the morning of the third day, Yan Jiuru signed a formal agency contract and authorized repair and other after-sales service stations with the local Hong Kong agent "Longfa Trading Company". At the same time, the ten sample cars he brought were left to the local agent as samples.
Originally, Yan Jiuru planned to keep almost half of them, but the agent was rich and generous, so he kept all ten and placed an order for another thirty.
The exhibits were packed up and taken away by the agents. There was nothing much to pack up at their booth, and even the remaining samples were left to Longfa Trading Company.
Yan Jiuru gave the five people who came to the exhibition half a day off, allowing them to move freely. They will return to China tomorrow morning.
Mr. Huang originally wanted to show them around in person to show his hospitality, but the pager on his waist kept ringing.
Yan Jiuru has known about this thing for a while, so he just let him do it on his own.
Mr. Huang is Chinese after all, so he was very considerate and told two employees, one male and one female, not to work in the afternoon. They would definitely take everyone for a good look around and make sure to greet everyone well.
Everyone who comes here on business trips receives a travel allowance of HK$500. Although it’s not much compared to the consumption here, at least they have some money in their pockets, so everyone feels more confident while shopping.
Xiao Wang from the marketing department and another newcomer, Li Ying, wanted to shop for skin care products, cosmetics, clothing, etc. The three men followed them because they didn't have anything in particular to buy.
However, given the prices here that often reach several hundred yuan, people mostly look but rarely buy.
Instead, Yan Jiuru bought Chen Yin two sets of skin care and cosmetics from her favorite brands, as well as a famous brand shoulder bag, which she can use after she graduates this year.
He bought himself a briefcase for daily travel.
When they came out of the children's clothing and supplies store, Yan Jiuru's hands were already full, while the others were only carrying one or two items.
The people at Longfa Trading Company were all envious. Actually, they seldom visited such high-end department stores. They basically just looked and didn’t buy anything. They didn’t expect that this factory manager from the mainland was the boss.
Really capable.
I bought a bag worth tens of thousands of yuan just like that!
Lauder skin care and cosmetics cost thousands of yuan per set. People just point their fingers and say 'this, this' and two sets come out. When they see the boss of Feiying buying skirts and clothes for his wife, they are even more envious and jealous, and wish they could enjoy them on her behalf.
The news that Yan Jiuru was generous with his shopping in Hong Kong soon reached the ears of Longfa’s boss Huang Sheng. Huang Sheng smiled and said that this was what should be done.
How could he fully believe in the other party's strength just by talking?
Before returning, Mr. Huang from Longfa Trading Company invited Yan Jiuru and other staff members to a seafood dinner, and after the meal they went to the Palace Nightclub.
Yan Jiuru was not very interested in the luxurious decoration of the nightclub, and did not pay much attention to the men and women dancing close to each other. However, he thought the system that allowed people to order songs and sing along was interesting, but that was all.
However, the few people who came with the factory were amazed. Even Captain Guo was frightened by the lady Huang Xian invited to dance with him and kept hiding: "No, no, no, this won't work. This will make a mistake."
Yan Jiuru waved the girls away and turned to Huang Sheng, saying, "Let's not do this. This is our first collaboration. Since you invited me, I must give you this honor. But next time, we don't have to spend so much money."
***
That day, Yan Jiuru drove home and got out of the car with a heavy handbag in her hand.
At this time, children don’t have much homework and have plenty of time to play outside.
He nodded at Chen Yin, and the two of them quietly went into the inner room.
"What's going on? You're so mysterious..."
Chen Yin's words were interrupted by stacks of brand new banknotes in her opened handbag.
"Oh my god, so much? Are you going to make a fortune?"
A while ago, Feiying Factory was recruiting workers and building a building, and money was needed everywhere. She was worried about whether the money in the account was enough.
Yan Jiuru hugged his wife and gave her a long kiss: "Thank you for your hard work during this period."
He is busy running between the factory and school. There are three children and younger siblings at home who are mostly taken care of by Chen Yin. Chen Yin is also busy with her studies and the student union.
"This stack is ten thousand, and here are five hundred thousand in total. You can use it to buy something for your home, or put it in the bank."
This is only a small part of the factory's profit, which supplements the money he has taken from his family to advance to the factory in recent years.
Chen Yin picked up a stack of them and said with a smile, "Oh, this is the return money!"
She put the money down and said, "Do we have to report this income?"
Yan Jiuru pinched her nose and said, "I'll just write a statement to the institute later."
After all, it was such a large contract order, and he invested all the money in the early stage, so naturally he would get more money.
But the procedure still has to go on.
***
Just last year, the National Daily reported that a professional pig farmer had an annual income of more than 10,000 yuan. Many places were encouraged and everyone worked hard to move towards the goal of becoming a 10,000 yuan household.
At this time, Yan Jiuru took the calculated personal net income and took a look. Very good, there were already seven zeros at the end.
It seems that supporting the family is finally no problem.
He kept a portion of the money in the factory account and transferred the rest to his personal passbook, which was then handed over to his wife to manage.
Neither of them said anything about this.
Who among the truly rich people doesn’t hide their wealth?
***
Today, the Freedom children's toy car produced by Feiying Factory sells very well in overseas markets, and every middle-class and above family buys one for their children to play with.
Many families in Europe and the United States have more than one child. Children from wealthy families each have a car, and some even have collector's editions.
If the family conditions are not that good, the bigger car can be given to the smaller one. Anyway, the seller has after-sales service. If it breaks down, the car can be repaired or replaced with parts and can still be driven.
The enlarged and widened Arabic version became a rising star. No one expected that this car would become the means of transportation in a certain royal palace.
After all, the palace is so big that it takes more than ten or twenty minutes to walk from one place to another. With this vehicle, you can get there quickly and save a lot of time.
Especially the two colors that the king's women liked, which were luxurious and noble. If you looked closely, it was like falling into the deep starry sky. When the two king's women drove these two cars and appeared on the street wearing sunglasses and headscarves, they immediately became the objects of imitation in the eyes of countless nobles who advocated luxury.
Gradually, this car was ordered not only by wealthy nobles in Arab countries, but also by people in other countries who had large castles and manors.
However, Wang's women's version of the luxury car was made into a global limited edition by Yan Jiuru. Not only the car body, but also the steering wheel, gear handle and other places that can be sprayed were sprayed with this pearlescent paint. As a result, the price was raised too much.
Limited to ten units worldwide each year!
Now, their orders for this product alone are queued up for three years, and they have to pay in full!
Some people even increased the price to cut in line!
This is the world of the rich.
Of course, with the emergence of this car, there are also some people who try to imitate it.
However, no matter how you imitate it, you can't reproduce the unique paint color of Feiying, especially the pearl-like luster. In addition, this paint is particularly strong and will not leave any marks even if it is slightly scratched.
As for the rich, when they buy things, they don’t look for the cheapest ones, they just look for the best ones. Whether it is expensive or not is just a matter of a barrel of oil.

Time passed and it was May 1980.
The first batch of college students who resumed enrollment at Yanda University officially graduated.
During the day, I was busy taking pictures in class, writing a souvenir book, taking pictures with my roommates and classmates I was close to, and taking pictures with teachers I was close to...
Anyway, I took all kinds of photos these days.
Yan Jiuru has never been idle since he had the Agfa hanging around his neck.
"Hey, Brother Jiu!" Li Xiangdong ran towards him and asked, "Are you sure you're going back to your original unit?"
Yan Jiuru nodded, "Yes, that's what I planned when I was admitted."
Key units are given a high degree of freedom and cooperate with each other tacitly, which other units may not be able to do.
"What about you? Have you decided where to go?"
"As for me, I should go to the Mechanical Department."
"That's not bad either, it's a good match for your major."
Seeing that he seemed to be hesitant to speak, Yan Jiuru sneered, "Be a real man, speak frankly if you have something to say!"
Sure enough, Li Xiangdong rubbed the ground with his toes and said, "I just want to know where she was assigned..."
Yan Jiuru knew that he was asking about Yang Lihua.
They are all former student union members, so of course they are more familiar with each other than others.
However, Li Xiangdong pursued Yang Lihua for three years, and they broke up and got back together many times, but there was no final result.
They are both locals, so there is no problem of different assignments. The main reason is that there are many people pursuing Yang Lihua, his conditions are not outstanding, and his family conditions are also quite poor.
Li Xiangdong's family has five sons. They are good, but they cost too much money.
When you are young, you can eat well, but when you grow up, go to school, get married, and work, the house becomes a big worry for your parents.
At the beginning, the whole family squeezed into a house of thirty or forty square meters. In addition to the eldest and second sons who had married, there were three other young men including Li Xiangdong, which was very inconvenient.
Fortunately, Li Xiangdong worked hard and was admitted to Yanjing University. From then on, he lived in the dormitory and occasionally went back on weekends to get some things. His second brother and his wife also moved into the double dormitory in the factory, and they were given a house after the child was born.
Even so, their family's conditions cannot be compared with Yang Lihua's. Unless he can be allocated a house by the company after graduation, otherwise, he will have no place to live after getting married.
Having said that, Yang Lihua's family is well-off, and she could obviously find someone with similar conditions. Why did she have to suffer so much?
After four years in college, they have learned that love and bread are equally important.
Yan Jiuru was annoyed by his slowness and said, "Alright, alright, let's break up. When you start working, it won't be long before the older sisters or aunts at work will find you a date."
If Yan Jiuru were to say, this grown man was so indecisive that he was really unpopular.
Since you want to marry her, it is definitely not to make her suffer with you. Otherwise, why would she give up her current comfortable life to suffer with you?
Unless your brain is filled with water.
If you want to get married, you can't just sit there and do nothing. At least let her see that you are working hard and striving for your goals. If that doesn't work, just let go and find someone with similar conditions to you.
When the time comes, it will be easier for two people to work together than for one person to try hard to get to the top.
Thinking about the relationship they had developed after living in the same dormitory for four years, Yan Jiuru patted his shoulder and said, "Just forget what you should forget."
***
Speaking of his wife, Yan Jiuru also sighed.
Chen Yin has outstanding qualifications in all aspects. The computer major she studied is still too backward in China. In addition, she is very good at foreign languages. She was selected by the National Overseas Training Program and passed the examination for government-sponsored study abroad. She will set off in June or July.
In fact, Yan Jiuru thought that the more important reason might be that Chen Yin had three children in the country and would basically not stay there. She could change her husband, but the children were her own after all.
Yan Jiuru often went abroad for various reasons, and it was impossible for the couple to be selected at the same time, so she did not participate in the selection.
Chen Yin went abroad for two years and when she came back she was at least a graduate student.
Forget it, I don’t want to think about it anymore. I’d better make more money so that I can take the children to see her in the United States later.
Chen Yin recently began receiving confidentiality regulations training in preparation for going abroad.
Yan Jiuru planned to go to the United States for business reasons and show Chen Yin the school and accommodation conditions in advance.
***
Feiying’s agent in the United States is called Michael, a young man with golden hair, one year younger than Yan Jiuru.
This guy's family has a mine, a real mine. Although he also graduated from an Ivy League university, he doesn't do anything serious on weekdays. Apart from eating, drinking, picking up girls, and playing racing.
He saw the Flying Eagle luxury car in the castle of his friend Big Eagle.
Michael was amazed at the luxury and beauty of the car, and his heart was almost instantly moved. When it was finally his turn to drive around, he couldn't let go.
This enlarged and widened luxury car is no longer a car, it is simply the top of the line!
He wants one too.
It doesn’t matter whether it’s open or not, it must be there!
When he heard that the annual production was limited to ten units, he first made use of his family's mining resources and his background in Ivy League universities. He went to Hong Kong to meet Yan Jiuru, and then went to visit the Feiying factory in mainland China.
When he learned that this paint had a secret formula and was unique in the world, he bought out the exclusive agency rights and after-sales service authorization in the United States for ten years without hesitation.
Michael spent tens of millions of dollars and of course got the right to jump the queue and pick up a top-of-the-line luxury car.
It is said that he is now preparing to open his fifth store and authorized repair service store in the United States. Well, it's time to see how it is doing.

Yan Jiuru travels abroad quite frequently, so after completing all the necessary procedures, he went directly to the embassy to submit the visa application materials.
Because business activities are time-specific, the person who received the materials directly made an appointment with him to meet with the visa officer next Monday.
The visa officer was a hairy man with a big beard.
He looked through Yan Jiuru's passport, which was stamped with customs stamps from several countries, and asked him, "What are you going to do?"
Yan Jiuru pointed at the words on the invitation letter and said, "The agent's new store has opened, and I want to go and inspect it."
"What's your job?"
Yan Jiuru picked out another professional certification document and gave it to him, "I am the director of this factory, Boss, and this is Zhang Ming's income."
He was simply impressed by these foreigners. It seemed as if every Xuan Chinese who saw the visa application wanted to immigrate to their country!
The foreigner shrugged indifferently and continued to ask him about his family members and income sources in a businesslike manner. After hearing that he had three children, parents, and two properties in Yancheng, he asked him when he planned to return.
Yan Jiuru said: "The planned round trip will take 15 days in total."
The foreigner swung up the seal and stamped it on with a bang, smiling at him and saying, "Good Lucy!"
In fact, the visa officer is just asking routine questions to people like them who travel frequently. A simple and clear answer will do. There is no need to explain too much and think it will be useful.
Yan Jiuru had to get a visa and arrange for a plane ticket.
There are no direct flights now, so he either has to fly to Frankfurt or to Karachi. In the end, he chose to fly directly to Frankfurt and then to New York.
