As a Magnate, I Started Checking in at a Convenience Store

Chapter 714: Surprise!

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Zhou Chao and Lin Wu spent two days wandering around before settling in the hotel without going out again. Mainly because Peng City indeed didn’t have many interesting places, and they had visited quite a few times before, leaving even fewer places unexplored.

“Boss, how much longer do you think it’ll take for Xu Yu and the others to finish what you asked them to do? We can’t just stay in the hotel all the time, can we?”

“What’s the rush? We have food, drinks, and fun here. Plus, it’s only been three days. Relax. But speaking of which, Xu Yu and the others are really slow. There’s been no news from them until now!”

Zhou Chao lounged on the sofa, playing with his phone with his legs crossed, occasionally picking up the large strawberries on the table to eat.

“I just feel uncomfortable staying like this!”

“Then go to the gym and work out. I’ll call you if anything comes up.”

Lin Wu nodded, changed into gym clothes, and headed straight to the hotel’s gym.

Watching Lin Wu’s somewhat anxious appearance, Zhou Chao shook his head with a smile.

Just as Zhou Chao was about to continue idling, his phone rang. It was Xu Yu, the person they had just talked about.

“Boss, hope I’m not disturbing your rest!” Xu Yu’s voice sounded somewhat excited over the phone.

“No, what’s up? Just tell me!”

Zhou Chao already guessed that Xu Yu had completed the tasks he assigned.

Sure enough, the next moment, Xu Yu said excitedly, “Boss, the tasks you assigned have been completed. When can you come and review them?”

Glancing at the time on his phone, which was already past three in the afternoon, Zhou Chao said, “Tomorrow. It’s getting late today. You guys have been busy for several days. It’s time to take a break!”

“Okay, boss!” Xu Yu happily hung up the phone.

“I wonder how they did it, but it seems like they did a good job. Otherwise, this kid Xu Yu wouldn’t be smiling so much. No use speculating. I’ll find out tomorrow when I go to the office!”

As for why he didn’t ask Xu Yu to send the completed plan to him, it was because he didn’t want to work overtime tonight. It would be more comfortable to go to the company tomorrow and listen to Xu Yu’s presentation directly.

The next day, Zhou Chao still slept until half past nine in the morning before sluggishly getting out of bed.

By the time he finished dressing and came out of the bedroom, it was already ten o’clock.

Glancing at the time, Zhou Chao skipped breakfast and left the hotel with Lin Wu, heading straight to the company.

Meanwhile, in the main office of Canghai Technology, Xu Yu, Zhou Jilong, and others were sitting on the sofa, chatting.

“I wonder when the boss will come. Ah, I’m so anxious!” Xu Yu said somewhat restlessly.

Zhou Jilong and Lan Ling exchanged a glance, seeing the amusement in each other’s eyes.

“Why are you so anxious? The boss will come eventually. Aren’t you satisfied with what you’ve planned? Why worry?”

“Although that’s what you say, it still needs the boss’s approval. If the boss feels it’s not satisfactory at that time, well…”

“It’s okay. If it doesn’t work out, we can make adjustments. It’s not a big deal.”

“Yeah, even if it doesn’t work out, the boss won’t scold you.” freewebnσvel.cøm

Xu Yu’s heart still hung on, especially since this was such a huge plan. Once successful, Canghai Technology would be unique in the country!

Just as this happened, the office door swung open, and Zhou Chao walked in with Lin Wu.

The three sitting individuals quickly stood up, “Boss, good morning!”

“Good morning, you’ve been waiting for a while, haven’t you?” Zhou Chao nodded as he spoke, then sat down on the sofa.

“No, we just arrived not long ago!” Lan Ling smiled and replied.

Indeed, Zhou Jilong and Lan Ling had just arrived not long ago. As for Xu Yu, he had been in the office for nearly two hours already, waiting for Zhou Chao to arrive so he could report his work promptly.

“Let’s hear it. What does the plan you’ve been working on for the past few days look like?” Zhou Chao said with a faint smile as he looked at Xu Yu.

At Xu Yu’s words, he stood up immediately, went to his computer, connected the projection device, and the next moment, an exquisite PPT appeared before everyone’s eyes.

Just by looking at this PPT, one could tell that a lot of thought had been put into it.

Without delay, Xu Yu began his explanation.

The overall plan followed Zhou Chao’s ideas, but some suggestions from Xu Yu and the others were also incorporated.

For example, inviting some well-capitalized and powerful state-owned enterprises to join, as well as some national enterprises that had declined due to financial issues or competition within the industry, were all considered.

Xu Yu spoke for almost two hours about the entire PPT, and by the time he finished, he felt like sparks could fly out of his mouth.

Zhou Chao was the first to applaud. This plan was indeed commendable. From initial cooperation to mutual support in the later stages, as well as considerations for future maintenance, everything was well thought out. Apart from a few minor issues, Zhou Chao felt it was nearly perfect.

“Xu Yu, well done. If this matter is successfully completed, there will definitely be rewards!”

“Boss, this is not solely my merit!”

“Alright, I know you want to say it’s everyone’s effort. Rewards will certainly be given to the team members as well, but of course, we’ll have to wait until this matter is concluded. Okay, let’s go eat now. It’s already past one o’clock!”
