After leaving Canghai Technologies, Zhou Chao and his companion drove straight to the Municipal Government Office. Zhou Chao planned to have a good chat with Ye Zhengfeng.
“Boss, are we really going to start selling ultra-precision machine tools and lithography systems on a large scale? Will there be any objections from above? After all, these are considered strategic equipment.”
Zhou Chao, sitting in the back seat with his legs crossed, replied calmly, “This is a minor issue. I’m going to see Ye Zhengfeng precisely about this matter. Do you think I’m dumber than you? You can think of all these things, but I can’t?”
Lin Wu chuckled awkwardly, still harboring some doubts. But he soon dismissed these thoughts, realizing they were beyond his level of consideration.
They arrived at the Municipal Government Office shortly thereafter, just as the afternoon workday was starting. When they approached the entrance, the security guards stopped them.
Initially, they intended to register Zhou Chao’s arrival, but as soon as they heard he was here to see Ye Zhengfeng, they hurriedly opened the gate without asking him to sign in.

“Oh, he wanted to make an impression, but now he’s hit a snag!” muttered one of the security guards as they watched the departing vehicle.
When they arrived at the government compound, it was already mid-afternoon.
As they entered the office building, they noticed quite a few people seated in the lounge area, all appearing to be there for business.
With a quick glance, Zhou Chao led Lin Wu straight to the floor where Ye Zhengfeng’s office was located. Upon stepping out of the elevator, they bumped into Ye Zhengfeng’s secretary, Yang Liu, who was chatting with a young girl.
“Hey, Assistant Yang, you seem in high spirits!”
Yang Liu, who had been enjoying his conversation, quickly turned around when he heard someone calling him. Upon seeing Zhou Chao’s face, he immediately abandoned the young girl and hurried over.
“Mr. Zhou, it’s been a while!” Yang Liu said respectfully.
“It has indeed been some time. I hope you don’t mind my dropping by.”
“Not at all, you’re always welcome! You’re here to see the boss, right? He’s in his office now. Let me take you there!”
“Thank you.”
Zhou Chao followed Yang Liu to Ye Zhengfeng’s office. As they passed by the young girl, Zhou Chao politely nodded, causing her to blush and shyly run away.
Ye Zhengfeng’s office door was ajar. Yang Liu knocked twice before leading Zhou Chao in.

“Boss, Mr. Zhou is here!”
Ye Zhengfeng, who had been reading documents with his head down, immediately looked up and appeared somewhat surprised to see Zhou Chao.
“Why do you have the leisure to come here? Unless you have something to discuss with me?” Ye Zhengfeng said, lifting his head and putting down the documents, then picking up his tea cup and taking a sip.
“Uncle Ye, you’re being too harsh. Can’t I come to catch up?” Zhou Chao smiled wryly.
“Haha, if it were someone else saying that, I might believe it. But as for you…”
With that, Ye Zhengfeng shook his head, indicating he didn’t believe Zhou Chao’s intentions.
“Ah, I was actually thinking of catching up first, but with you saying that, Uncle Ye, I guess I’ll dive straight into business,” Zhou Chao remarked lightly.
“Go ahead, what’s the matter?” Ye Zhengfeng set down his documents and sipped his tea.
Zhou Chao’s expression turned serious as he said, “Uncle Ye, you’re aware of the research my tech company is conducting. Several projects have now successfully entered mass production, and I’m considering selling them to the public.”
“Several projects successfully completed? And you’re planning to sell them to the public? I’m afraid this idea might attract unwanted attention in the short term. It might be best to reconsider,”
Ye Zhengfeng interjected without hesitation.
Ye Zhengfeng’s swift denial didn’t faze Zhou Chao, who maintained a calm demeanor.

“Uncle Ye, I wouldn’t have come to disturb you if I wasn’t confident in my plans. You know me well enough.”
Upon hearing Zhou Chao’s words, Ye Zhengfeng paused for a moment, aware of Zhou Chao’s cunning nature. It appeared that Zhou Chao indeed had some countermeasure in mind!
“Tell me, how do you intend to proceed?” Ye Zhengfeng inquired.
“Well, first and foremost, selling is inevitable. Then it’s a matter of who we sell to and who can afford to buy. These decisions rest with me, considering our unparalleled position in the global market.”
Listening intently, Ye Zhengfeng fell into contemplation, before regaining his composure.
“So, you’re planning to dominate the domestic high-end market?”
“I certainly aspire to, but my current production capacity falls short, unfortunately,” Zhou Chao admitted, though a glint of pride flashed across his face.
Despite his reservations, Ye Zhengfeng couldn’t help but notice Zhou Chao’s confidence. He understood that following Zhou Chao’s plan posed no significant risks.
“Are you here today merely to boast?” Ye Zhengfeng asked cautiously, to which Zhou Chao shook his head vigorously, knowing full well that such a statement might provoke a stern response.
“Absolutely not, Uncle Ye. I’m here to discuss the most critical aspect—reputation.”
“Reputation? You sly little rascal. You’re aiming to elevate the profile of our entire Peng City!” Ye Zhengfeng chuckled helplessly, observing Zhou Chao’s audacious strategy.
“It’s a win-win situation, Uncle. Imagine the prestige Peng City will gain when numerous renowned domestic enterprises converge here. It’ll make future investment and development endeavors much smoother for you,” Zhou Chao elaborated with a smile.
