During lunch, Jiang Xiaoli brought up the questionable actions of "Maotian Film and Television".
Zong Jia frowned. "It really was them. Has it had a big impact on your side?"
She waved her hand, "It's alright, don't worry. 'Jiang's Entertainment' is only affected by the popularity of Quiet and the other three because of 'The Outstanding.' As long as they're unaffected, the others are fine. I've made preparations."
Zong Jia nodded. "Okay, I've already had the 'Search the World' news department issue a press release. Adding a little more content won't be difficult."
Jiang Xiaoli rested her elbows on the table, looking at him. "Ayu, we're officially going head-to-head with those old foxes from the 'Kyoto Chamber of Commerce.' Are you ready?"
Zong Jiayu chuckled and said, "Although now is not the best time, I have been looking forward to this day."
"Okay, let's discuss how to deal with this when we get home tonight."
After finishing her classes in the afternoon, Jiang Xiaoli went to Tan Xuanyi's house. "Honorary Advisor, our company has run into some trouble. I wrote a rough plan this afternoon. Could you give me some advice?"
Tan Xuanyi took the papers, put on his glasses, looked at them, and said, "I just signed the consulting contract, and the next thing I know, work came in. You're really pragmatic!"
Jiang Xiaoli refilled his teacup with water. "Look at what you're saying. If I didn't come to you, you would complain that I treat you like an outsider. You old man are really hard to please!"
Tan Xuanyi glared at her. "Am I such an unreasonable person?"
She said with a grin, "That's why I'm not being formal with you. You're the first person I think of when I need something. Please take a look!"
"Alright, alright, you can play around for a bit while I look at your proposal." Tan Xuanyi said, then ignored her and looked down at the proposal.
Tan Xuanyi's wife, Ran Hui, a retired professor from the Chinese Department of Peking University, was carrying a plate of cut fruit, intending to bring it over to the two of them.
Seeing Jiang Xiaoli being chased out by her husband, she snorted, then pulled Jiang Xiaoli's hand and led her to the living room. "Don't mind this old geezer, let's eat some fruit and let him go about his business!"
Jiang Xiaoli smiled slightly, "Okay!"
She sat down and chatted with Ran Hui, "Professor Ran, you look much younger lately. Tell me in secret, what magic pills have you been taking?"
Ran Hui laughed at her words and clapped her hands. "What magic pill? At our age, what we worry about most is our children!"
She paused and sighed, "Xiao Li, in the end, I still have to thank you!"
After talking with Tan Xuanyi about his family last time, Jiang Xiaoli knew that he was just being stubborn and that he still loved his child.
She asked Li Anting to contact Tan Xuanyi's two sons and proposed a plan to them: the two families would sell their current houses to buy new ones, and she would personally provide a loan for the remaining amount, so that the two families could achieve their wish of changing houses, on the condition that they could no longer have designs on the Tan family's old house.
This is the most suitable way for the two Tan brothers to move to a bigger house.
Although the two brothers were somewhat obedient to their wives, for Chinese people, a house is the foundation of a family. She could understand their desire to move to a smaller, poorly equipped tenement building, with several family members crammed into it.
When she was first reborn, wasn't she also thinking about buying a big house?
Both Tan brothers are employed, and if banks offered legitimate mortgage programs, they would certainly qualify. However, the problem is that they don't, and they simply cannot afford to each pay hundreds of thousands of yuan upfront to buy a house.
The two Tan brothers only went home and discussed it with their wives before giving Li Anting a reply that they were willing to accept Jiang Xiaoli's loan.
Ran Hui had been extremely worried about buying houses for her two sons recently, and she had become quite haggard. Now that the problem was solved, she was looking forward to finding an opportunity to properly thank Jiang Xiaoli!
Jiang Xiaoli ate fruit and said with a smile, "Professor Ran, you don't need to be so polite. Professor Tan is right about one thing: I am a businesswoman who prioritizes profit. Solving a small problem for your family and making Professor Tan more devoted to working for my company is a win-win situation for me!"
Ran Hui took her hand and said, "Alright! I don't know how many students Lao Tan and I have taught over the years, I've seen too many people, Xiao Li, there really aren't many like you."
She smiled playfully, "Professor Ran, even someone as thick-skinned as me is embarrassed by your praise!"
"Haha," Professor Ran said with a smile, "Xiao Li, you must come to my house often in the future. I really enjoy chatting with you!"
Jiang Xiaoli blinked, "No problem, as long as you don't find me annoying, I promise to come often!"
Tan Xuanyi spent more than half an hour carefully analyzing Jiang Xiaoli's plan. He called her name twice in the study but no one came in.
He walked into the living room, where his wife was chatting animatedly with him, her student and boss!
He hadn't seen his wife so happy in a long time.
"Ahem." He coughed lightly a few times. "What are you two chatting about that makes you so happy?"
He interrupted Ran Hui, and she said irritably, "Let's talk about literature! If you don't like it, why are you interrupting?"
Tan Xuanyi touched his nose. "Um, I need to talk to Xiaoli about company matters. Can you guys talk later?"
Ran Hui sighed, waved her hand, and said to Jiang Xiaoli, "Go on, go on, I won't delay your business."
Jiang Xiaoli closed the book they had just been discussing. "Professor Ran, I'll continue our discussion later!"
The two returned to the study, where Tan Xuanyi looked at his student with suspicion. "You, a girl reeking of money, can talk to people about literature?"
Jiang Xiaoli pouted, "Professor Tan, no wonder Professor Ran dislikes you! Even if you don't understand, you have to pretend you do. It's not hard to just go along with what Professor Ran is saying, is it? Otherwise, why don't you pay me some tuition and I'll teach you?"
Tan Xuanyi snorted, "You little devil! You've fooled my wife!"
"Please don't say that!" She made an "X" with her hands. "I had a wonderful chat with Professor Ran!"
Tan Xuanyi ignored her and tapped on her proposal. "Stop joking! Let's get down to business! Tell me, what's the rationale behind this proposal? What's wrong with the company that makes you so cautious?"
Jiang Xiaoli sighed, "It's all because your student and your student's fiancé are too outstanding!"
Tan Xuanyi almost spat out his tea. "Fiancé?"
She nodded and recounted her relationship with Zong Jiayu, her relationship with "Yujia Technology," and her past conflicts with the people from the "Kyoto Chamber of Commerce."
Tan Xuanyi sighed, "The kind of malicious suppression, attempts to monopolize, and underhanded operations that I dislike the most in business competition."
