“Let me introduce everyone first. These two are our city officials from Peng City, Secretary Ye and Senior officer Fu. 1 believe everyone knows them. And this gentleman is none other than Mr. Ma Huateng, the owner of Tencent!”

“This is my uncle, Mr. Li Youdao, the head of the Li Group in Modu. And this handsome young man next to him is Li Hao, the scion of the Hong Kong Li family. Lastly, we have Mr. Qin Qingchun, Chairman of Sany Group.”

Zhou Chao swiftly introduced everyone present, conveniently skipping over the imposing figure of Big Brother Li Yang, who was glaring at him.

“Would you all like to visit my factory?” Zhou Chao’s words instantly captured everyone’s attention.

“Let’s go. I’ve been looking forward to this!” Ye Zhengfeng was the first to speak, and Zhou Chao wasted no time, leading the group towards the factory.

After going through disinfection procedures and donning dust-proof suits, they entered the factory, where work was proceeding smoothly.

Zhou Chao led the way, with Ye Zhengfeng and the others following closely behind. Inside the factory, they saw a long production line, with many technicians in dust-proof suits busy with their tasks.

Ye Zhengfeng glanced around and asked, “Have you solved all the production issues now?”

“Yes, all the issues have been resolved, and the current yield rate is close to ioo%.”

“Well done!”

After a tour of the factory, they came out again. At some point, Li Youdao had already struck up a conversation with Ma Huateng and Qin Qingchun, and the three of them seemed to be getting along well.

“Boss!” Xu Yu rushed up to Zhou Chao, panting.

“What’s the hurry?”

After catching his breath, Xu Yu replied, “Boss, the opening ceremony is about to start at 10 o’clock!”

“Okay, I got it.”

Zhou Chao then turned to the people behind him and said, “Secretary Ye, the opening ceremony is about to begin. From now on, our General Manager, Xu Yu, will accompany you.”

He then glanced at Xu Yu, who promptly stood up and bowed slightly to the guests.

“Oh, you don’t want to show your face? This is a great opportunity for you to make a name for yourself!” Ye Zhengfeng looked at Zhou Chao with a smile.

“I’d rather not. I prefer to stay behind the scenes. If 1 become famous, I’ll become like President Ma here, who needs bodyguards just to go shopping. I still want to take my girlfriend shopping!”

Zhou Chao’s words elicited laughter from the people present, and they continued on with Xu Yu to the opening ceremony venue.

The venue was already crowded with people, including their own employees, representatives from Ma Huateng, Qin Qingchun, Li Youdao’s companies, and several well-informed journalists, all eagerly awaiting the opening ceremony.

Soon, the clock struck io, and the host introduced the guests and leaders present. As the names of these individuals echoed through the microphone, everyone in the room was astonished, craning their necks to catch a glimpse of the heavyweight guests who were appearing one by one!

Even the journalists were frantically clicking their shutters, fearing they might miss this spectacular moment! They snapped away with smiles on their faces as if tomorrow’s headlines belonged to them!

The entire venue followed the ceremonial program step by step. Among them, Ye Zhengfeng also took the stage to deliver a speech. When Ye Zhengfeng, Ma Huateng, and others joined Xu Yu for the unveiling and ribbon-cutting ceremony, this ribbon-cutting photo had already spread across the internet!

After the ceremony concluded, Xu Yu was intercepted by the media for interviews, while Zhou Chao and Ye Zhengfeng, among others, drove away from Canghai Technology!

At this moment, on the internet, the accompanying content of this photo had caused a sensation!

Ju Wei: Immediately send people to Peng City to investigate whether Canghai Technology’s production of 12-inch wafers is genuine. If it is, negotiate with them and try to secure all the wafers! Get it done right away!

Zhong Xin: How is this possible? We haven’t even achieved this technological breakthrough yet. How could someone in China manufacture it? We must accelerate our pace; this year, we must establish our own wafer factory!

Several smartphone companies, including Damai, Ohbo, and others, issued similar tasks to their respective teams, albeit with most of them harboring doubts!

Meanwhile, online, there was a mix of belief and skepticism!

“Canghai Technology is amazing!”

“Canghai Technology is outstanding!”

“Is it fake? If we had this technology in China, wouldn’t Ju Wei have already broken free from constraints?”

“That’s right, it’s probably exaggerated! Let’s wait for the official announcement!”

All of this online chatter had nothing to do with Zhou Chao. At this moment, he was in a private room at the Hilton Hotel, chatting with Ye Zhengfeng, Fu Hongshan, and others.

“Xiaochao, your actions will surely attract the attention of many major players in the domestic market. I’m afraid you’ll be swamped with work in no time!” Ye Zhengfeng said as he gently sipped his tea, observing the smile on Zhou Chao’s face.

“All, it’s just a pity that I can’t keep up with the production volume! Otherwise, there wouldn’t be this TSMC issue.”

“Take it slow, don’t rush. We’ve made progress, haven’t we? 1 believe it won’t be long before your idea becomes a reality!” Ye Zhengfeng said, trying to comfort Zhou Chao not to set overly ambitious goals.

But what Zhou Chao was thinking at the moment was that when they finally produced the ultra-precision machine tool, he’d establish his own production line, manufacture lithography systems, and research chips!

As he thought about it, a smile blossomed on his face.

“President Zhou, did you think of something funny? Share it with us. It’s quite unusual to see you burst into laughter just like that!” Ma Huateng looked at Zhou Chao with curiosity.

“No, I was just thinking about my wife. We’ve been apart for half a month, and 1 miss her!”

“Which rich family’s daughter can make our Zhou Chao miss her so much? She must be a stunning beauty!”

For a moment, the entire private room burst into laughter.

“Xiaochao, when you get the chance, bring your wife to Peng City to visit!”

“Got it, Uncle Ye!” The private room was now empty of other people, and Zhou Chao had dropped the formal “Ye Secretary” when addressing Ye Zhengfeng.

Zhou Chao calling Ye Zhengfeng “Uncle Ye” surprised many in the room, especially Ma Huateng. He had made his fortune in Peng City, and when it came to Ye Zhengfeng, he knew the kind of influence and power the man held behind him. The fact that Zhou Chao could casually refer to Ye Zhengfeng as “Uncle” suggested a deep and significant relationship between the two.

Soon, the room’s door was pushed open, and waiters entered with exquisite dishes. In no time, the table was filled with a variety of delicious food!

“I want to thank everyone for coming today and for the strong support from the Peng City Committee. I’ll start with this drink. Cheers, everyone!” Zhou Chao raised a glass of white wine and downed it in one gulp.

As time passed, the atmosphere at the dining table became increasingly harmonious. It wasn’t until 1:30 AM that everyone concluded this gratitude dinner.

“Xiaochao, Lao Fu, we’ll head off now.” After sending Ye and Fu out of the private room, Zhou Chao and the others were asked to return.

Zhou Chao said goodbye to the others and went back to his room because he was feeling a bit dizzy.

Meanwhile, Ma Huatend took Qin Qingchun and Li Youdao out to have some fun..
