Chapter 2421: Chapter 2422: I Am Lin Yi Chapter 2421: Chapter 2422: I Am Lin Yi âI once sent someone to the site to look over it, and it seemed like only a frame was put up. I didnât see this so-called âmulti-thread progressionâ.â
Wang Zhao Deâs face didnât look very good; it was quite stern.
âPresident Ji, for such a large project, some things are not visible on site.â
Lin Yi sat motionless beside them but deciphered the situation from their conversation.
From the looks of it, it would be good if even half of the initial 40 million investment was actually used for the project.
Subtly, Lin Yi placed his hand on Ji Qingyanâs leg.
With the tacit understanding between them, even without Lin Yi speaking, Ji Qingyan understood what he meant.
âAs an investor, do I have to wait until the project is complete before I can see what it looks like? Shouldnât you discuss it with me?â
If Lin Yi werenât there, Ji Qingyanâs words wouldnât be so intense.
But with someone backing her, she was fearless.
âHow about this, letâs pause our meeting for now. Iâll put together the project progress, and weâll continue in twenty minutes. What do you think, President Ji?â
âOkay.â
The meeting was adjourned, and individuals from both parties left their seats.
Some keen-eyed executives already sensed something unusual in the air.
The negotiations were not smooth; it was hard to say how they would ultimately conclude.
Under the secretaryâs guidance, Wang Zhao De and others went to the meeting room, while Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan returned to the office.
âI knew it, this meeting wouldnât yield any results.â
Ji Qingyan said, exhausted, sitting in the chair.
âItâs what I expected. Projects like this are all the same.â
âBut I donât think he can sort out the construction progress in twenty minutes.â
âOf course, he canât. They didnât adjourn the meeting to do that.â
âThen what did they go to do?â
âTo rally people.â
Lin Yi said leisurely from the sofa:
âThey know exactly whatâs going on with this project. They have no power to shut you up, but they still want the money, so they have to find a third party to intervene. Just wait, it wonât be five minutes before someone calls you.â
Ji Qingyan nodded. The matter had reached an impasse. Without a third party stepping in, it could be difficult to conclude.
Ring, ring, ringâ
As Lin Yi predicted, in less than three minutes, Ji Qingyanâs phone rang; it was an unknown number.
âGive it to me, Iâll take it.â
âPresident Ji, Iâm Yang Zhi.â
âIâm her husband, Lin Yi. You can talk to me about anything.â
âWhere is President Ji? I would like to talk to her about the Shaning County assistance project, please let her take the phone.â
The other party spoke very seriously, even somewhat rudely.
âNo matter who you are, Iâll have the final say on this project,â said Lin Yi:
âIâve already told you, my name is Lin Yi. I am the Chairman of Lingyun Group. I believe you have your own connections. Call the central authorities and find out who I am. Then we can discuss this matter.â
Lin Yi didnât give the other person much chance to speak and hung up the phone decisively.
âIs that a bit too dismissive? After all, heâs from the official side.â
âHeâs not a leader from Zhong Hai; no need to beat around the bush. He canât reach that far.â
Lin Yi handed the phone back to Ji Qingyan. âThere shouldnât be any issues with the project now. You handle the rest. I have other things to take care of and need to go.â
âMm-hmm.â
Ji Qingyan stood up and helped Lin Yi straighten his clothes.
âI know youâre capable, but be careful and donât overexert yourself.â
âI know, donât worry,â Lin Yi said as he touched Ji Qingyanâs belly, then lifted her shirt and kissed it.
âIâm off. Be careful while youâre working.â
âMm-hmm, donât worry.â
After giving Ji Qingyan a few more reminders, Lin Yi left Chaoyang Group and went to see Yan Ci.
Since the New Year, the two had not seen each other, and since he had some free time today, he planned to visit.
Meanwhile, in the lounge of Chaoyang Group, Wang Zhao De and others sat back relaxedly in their chairs, not sorting out the project progress information as they had said they would.
âBrother Wang, President Jiâs attitude seems very tough. Can we keep up with the follow-up investments?â
âNo big problem, Iâve arranged it all, and someone will explain the situation to her.â
âThatâs good. With this money, we can fill the financial gap.â
âSo letâs just wait. I personally came over, so it should be fine.â
Ring ring ringâ
Just then, Wang Zhao Deâs phone rang.
Whatever the person on the phone said, Wang Zhao Deâs face grew uglier by the minute.
The call lasted a good five or six minutes before it ended.
Wang Zhao De was sweating profusely, leaving the others flabbergasted.
âBrother Wang, whatâs the situation? Is it handled?â
âThereâs a big problem; we canât go on with this project.â
âWhat?â
Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback.
âWasnât someone discussing terms? Has it not been settled?â
âDid you notice, during the meeting, the man sitting next to President Ji?â
âI saw him; heâs quite handsome.â
âHeâs Ji Qingyanâs husband, with a very unusual identity. If we continue like this, not just us, even my superior might be pulled down.â
As soon as this was said, everyoneâs faces changed dramatically.
In their minds, they pictured that young man.
Being so young, what kind of background did he have to wield such power?
âAlright, alright, stop sitting around. Letâs go to President Ji and explain the situation.â
âOkay, okayâŠâ
âŠ
About half an hour later, Lin Yi drove to the building of Yan Ci Company.
Pushing open the office door, he saw Yan Ci sitting stiff-faced in front of the computer, staring blankly, lost in thought.
âWhatâs the matter? Who has upset President Yan?â
Seeing Lin Yi enter, the gloom on Yan Ciâs face disappeared.
âWhy didnât you call before coming? What if I wasnât at the company?â
âThought Iâd surprise you,â Lin Yi said:
âWhat were you thinking just now, with such a long face?â
âDonât mention it, I feel like Iâve been plagued with misfortune this year, nothing is going smoothly,â Yan Ci said dejectedly.
âDonât worry, just take it slow.â
âAn actress named Li Manman has become super popular recently. Iâd been in touch with her since last year and wanted to sign her up. Everything was going well, but then someone beat us to it,â Yan Ci explained:
âAnd last week, the film we submitted for review was pushed back as is, unchanged. Itâs one thing after another, just bad luck. I donât know whatâs wrong.â
âThe last time we met, didnât you say you wanted to make a big splash for the New Year? Maybe itâs that which has a problem. A louder bang next time will do,â Lin Yi suggested.
