Chapter 723: Chapter 723: 723: What's Wrong with Being a Little Philanthropic?

Stocking up a million units, that’s more than five hundred million.

Although Mei Zhu smartphones had become a household name in the nation.

But handling so much inventory comes with huge pressure and risks.

“Just do as I say, and I’ll take responsibility for any problems,” Jiang Xu said confidently.

A million units still seemed too few to him.

For a revolutionary product like this, sales were the least of his worries.

According to Jiang Xu’s estimation, a million units wouldn’t last long before selling out.

Moreover, Jiang Xu had his own sales platform now, so he didn’t need to worry about sales at all.

“Great, with your word, I’m relieved,” Wang Zhang said with a chuckle, “By the way, should we give our chip a catchy name?”

“Hmm…” Jiang Xu thought for a bit and said, “Let’s call it ‘Jinwu Chip’ then.”

Wang Zhang, “Does that name carry any meaning?”

Jiang Xu, “Jinwu, also the sun. It signifies that our chip is indispensable just like the sun.”

Wang Zhang, “Hahaha, leave it to you to be cultured. It’s settled then.”

After Wang Zhang hung up the phone, Jiang Xu contacted Lu Chao.

It was time to start developing the seven-nanometer chip.

The endpoint for chips is one nanometer, and there was still a long way to go.

Following that, there were seven-nanometer, five-nanometer, three-nanometer, two-nanometer, and one-nanometer.

An Nuonuo came out after brushing her teeth.

She looked at him with a bit of resentment.

Jiang Xu had been really…

“Sorry, sorry,” Jiang Xu said with a sheepish smile.

He pulled her into his embrace, “It’s my fault, it won’t happen again, let me see your mouth…”

“I don’t want to,” An Nuonuo dodged and said, “Tell me about what happened with Mr. Chen and Zhou.”

During the time in Bear Country, Jiang Xu and An Nuonuo chatted every day, all lovey-dovey, without talking about anyone else.

Indeed, women do love gossip, and An Nuonuo was no exception.

So, Jiang Xu meticulously recounted everything that had happened between the two.

“So that’s what happened…” An Nuonuo murmured, “From what it sounds like, this Mr. Chen might not be a good match.”

Jiang Xu nodded in agreement.

During his time in Bear Country, Chen Shiyen hadn’t done anything objectionable.

Putting himself in their shoes, had Jiang Xu been a woman, he might have been charmed too.

But who knew that after seeing Chu Youwei, Chen Shiyen was quick to fall for someone else.

The speed of it all even shocked Jiang Xu.

And it was all in front of Zhou Qingyue, no less. Jiang Xu couldn’t fathom what he was thinking.

“Could there be another possibility?” An Nuonuo analyzed carefully,

“Is it possible that he did that on purpose, to evoke a sense of urgency in Zhou?”

“Yo?” Jiang Xu looked at An Nuonuo in surprise, “How come you’ve become so smart all of a sudden? To think of that!”

Honestly, even Jiang Xu hadn’t considered that possibility.

An Nuonuo puffed out her chest, very proud, “Of course, I’ve watched many similar dramas with Sister Xiaoya.”

“My darling is really adorable,” Jiang Xu couldn’t help but pinch her cheek. “It’s a pity you’re not up for it right now, or else I…”

An Nuonuo, afraid of brushing her teeth again, quickly changed the subject, “But now that Chen Shiyen has set his sights on my cousin, we need to find a way to make him give up.”

“Jiang Xiaoyan has already been working on it. Let’s see if she can handle it first. If not, then I’ll take care of it.”

“Okay, I’ll thank Brother Xu on behalf of my cousin first,”

“If you want to thank me, show it with your actions,”

“Ugh, ignoring you now!”

——————

Two days later, Jiang Xiaoyan called, “Ah, it’s not going well.”

Jiang Xu, “What?”

Jiang Xiaoyan, “That issue with Chen Shiyen, I found several beautiful girls, but he didn’t bite.”

“This guy is too annoying now, do you know what he did?”

“This morning, he went to see Zhou Qingyue, bringing all sorts of food and drinks.”

“I’m heading to Chu Youwei’s this afternoon, armed with flowers and all sorts of little gifts. I can’t believe it.”

“What’s even more infuriating is that the guy was really nice and humble when he saw me.”

“It made it impossible for me to even get angry.”

Chen Shiyen was like a ball of cotton, no matter how hard you hit it, it felt light and painless.

“Turns out he’s really a master at this,” Jiang Xu clicked his tongue in wonder.

He admitted he had misjudged the situation this time.

He had thought Chen Shiyen would be the kind of devoted, good man.

Now it seems he might be the only man in the world who stayed true to his principles.

Alas.

The world has gone downhill, and people aren’t what they used to be.

These past few days Chu Youwei hadn’t mentioned anything, and Jiang Xu was still unclear about it.

“Otherwise . . .” Jiang Xiaoyan said in a chilling tone, “I’ll have someone physically castrate Chen Shiyen. What do you think?”

Perfect, such a solution was very Jiang Xiaoyan.

Jiang Xu: “Your idea is good. Which prison do you have in mind? I’ll help you pull some strings.”

“…” Jiang Xiaoyan, “Then what do you suggest we do? I’m out of ideas.”

Jiang Xu pondered for a moment: “Leave it to me to handle.”

Chen Shiyen’s issue definitely needed to be resolved.

He didn’t mind how Chen pursued Zhou Qingyue.

But harassing Chu Youwei was definitely not okay.

An Nuonuo really liked Chu Youwei now.

Jiang Xu even wondered if Nuonuo would stick to Chu Youwei twenty-four hours a day if he wasn’t with her.

Nuonuo couldn’t bear to see Chu Youwei get bullied even a little.

Jiang Xiaoyan grew interested, “What are you planning to do?”

Jiang Xu, “If you want to see, join me tonight.”

After ending the call, Jiang Xu called Chu Youwei, “Cousin, invite Chen Shiyen out for dinner tonight.”

“Tell him it’s just the two of you alone.”

“For the location, choose the restaurant owned by Sister Xiaoyan, and don’t tell him it was my idea.”

“I’ll handle everything else, and after tonight, he won’t bother you again.”

“Okay,” Chu Youwei said softly, “Thank you.”

“No need, see you tonight.”

————————

At night, in the innermost private room of the restaurant owned by Bai Xiaoya.

Chen Shiyen arrived early.

Today he dressed to the nines, looking as handsome as Peng Yuyan.

In his left hand, he held fresh flowers, and in his right, a beautifully wrapped gift box.

His mood was naturally very excited.

After trying for so many days, Chu Youwei had actually invited him out for dinner.

Shouldn’t he seize the opportunity?

Perhaps tonight their relationship would progress.

As for Zhou Qingyue?

He liked her too.

And he didn’t plan to give up on her either.

He felt his actions weren’t wrong.

He was just a bit more loving, that’s all.

In a world with so many loving men, what was one more?

The minutes ticked by.

Chen Shiyen kept glancing at his watch.

At exactly seven-thirty in the evening, Chu Youwei appeared on time in the private room.
