Chapter 236: Completion of the Factory

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

In the following days, Jiang Li always left early and returned late. At first, Zhou Chao used to pick her up every day, but later on, Jiang Li decided to drive to work herself!

With nothing else to do, Zhou Chao continued to study the machine tool data and learn relevant knowledge at home. After a few days of research, coupled with his exceptional memory, Zhou Chao felt that he was gradually moving from being a complete novice to having some understanding of the subject.

“Bzzz!” You'll discover the inception of this content at n0v@lbin★

The vibrating phone interrupted Zhou Chao’s short nap on the recliner. He squinted and answered the call.

“Hello!”

“Boss, were you sleeping?”

“It’s you, Lin Wu, no worries! 1 took a break after looking at the data for a while. Is there something you need?”

“The factory is already completed, and all the supporting facilities are ready. What’s left now are the dormitory building and the office building, which are not yet renovated. When do you plan to come to Peng City? We’ve also installed the production line you brought back a few days ago!”

Upon hearing Lin Wu’s words, Zhou Chao, who had been somewhat drowsy, sat up from the recliner.

“Is everything inside the factory up to standard?” Zhou Chao was concerned that they might rush to meet the deadline and neglect the environmental conditions required for semiconductor wafer production inside the factory.

“It has passed the inspection and meets world-class standards!”

“You mentioned earlier that the production line has been installed?” Zhou Chao’s excitement returned as he remembered what Lin Wu had said.

“Uh... Boss, I didn’t have a chance to tell you earlier. Zhou Jilong has already returned to Peng City. A few days ago, he brought technical personnel from the research institute and installed the production line. Now we’re waiting for your inspection!”

“Alright, I understand. I’ll take a flight to Peng City this afternoon. That’s it for now; we can discuss other matters when we meet in person!”

“Okay, Boss!” Lin Wu actually had more to say, but he thought that it could wait. After all, the Boss would find out when he arrived in Peng City, and he might be pleasantly surprised. As he thought about it, Lin Wu burst into laughter.

Zhou Chao hung up the phone and called Jiang Li to briefly inform her about his plans. They exchanged some affectionate words, and Zhou Chao ended the call. After all, they would see each other in person later, and Jiang Li was still at work.

He then dialed Ling Chen’s number. It rang several times before she answered.

“Hello, Ling Chen!”

Zhou Chao looked at Qin Fen’s somewhat smug expression and realized that Qin Fen was showing off a bit in front of him.

“You get 82 points for that move, and I’ll shout ‘666’ for the remaining 18 points!” (T/N: 666 means very cool in Chinese slang.)

“Flehe, I heard from Li Yang that you have a top-notch luxury cruise ship. Just your ship could buy several private planes!”

“It looks like 1 should consider getting a private plane on my agenda too!” Zhou Chao said as he rubbed his chin, thinking it was a good idea.

“Let’s go; my scheduled time is approaching,” Qin Fen said as he checked his watch, realizing they had less than half an hour left.

“Sure!” Zhou Chao grabbed his bag and followed Qin Fen through a special channel, boarding a shuttle bus to the airport. Within no time, they spotted a Gulfstream jet parked on the runway.

“The interior decor isn’t bad at all!” Zhou Chao examined the plane closely as soon as they boarded. The overall decoration was on the luxurious side, though not exactly his preferred style.

“Chao, what are you going to do in Peng City this time?”

“Oh, it’s nothing much. We’ve just finished constructing a factory on my end, and it’s expected to start production soon. 1 thought I’d go take a look!”

“I see.” Qin Fen started asking more questions about the factory, not realizing the importance of the information he was seeking until it was too late.

The plane took off quickly, and during the three-hour flight, Zhou Chao and Qin Fen chatted about various topics. Qin Fen shared some business ventures he and his friends had undertaken abroad, along with the beautiful places they had visited during their overseas trips.

Finally, after nearly three hours in the air, they landed at Peng City’s airport.

Outside the airport terminal.

“Chao, where are you headed? Should I drop you off?” Qin Fen asked, standing next to a large Mercedes-Benz.

“No need, my ride is here,” Zhou Chao replied, looking at the two cars that had just arrived. The front one was the Toyota Alphard he had been using.

Qin Fen glanced at the people getting out of the cars, including someone he recognized—Lin Wu.

“All right then, 1 won’t see you off then. Give me a call when you’re free!”

“Sure!”

Zhou Chao watched Qin Fen drive away before turning his attention to Lin Wu and the others.

“Let’s go!”
