Chapter 222: Yu Qian’s Call
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“An ultra-precision machine tool! With this, can’t I start making lithography systems by myself?” Zhou Chao’s excitement grew as he contemplated the possibilities.
Produced by the system, of the highest quality! The ultra-precision machine tool he had acquired was at the cutting edge of technology worldwide. With this advanced machine, Zhou Chao could make significant progress in the field of technology.
“Recruitment! We must recruit talented individuals, anyone with expertise in technology should be brought on board!” Zhou Chao’s hand slammed down heavily on the sofa. At this moment, the most crucial task was to acquire these experts in the field; otherwise, he couldn’t make use of the technology.
Currently, solely relying on Zhou Jilong’s team wouldn’t be sufficient to produce these machines in a short amount of time. It wasn’t just about the machine tool; they also needed experts for semiconductor fabrication plants, lithography machines, and more.
“Brother Chao, you can go take a bath now; I’ve already prepared the water for you!” Jiang Li’s words interrupted Zhou Chao’s contemplation.
Zhou Chao looked up and saw Jiang Li in a black, semi-transparent nightgown, leaning against the railing with her attractive thighs partially revealed. It sent a thrill through Zhou Chao’s heart.
“Coming!” Zhou Chao got up and headed upstairs. As he passed by Jiang Li, he couldn’t resist patting her pert backside playfully, making it jiggle.
“Always up to mischief. Go take a shower; you smell all sweaty!” Jiang Li gave Zhou Chao a couple of light punches with her small fists and then pushed him into the bathroom.
“Do you want to join me for another round?” Zhou Chao propped himself against the doorframe, his eyes filled with desire as he looked at Jiang Li.
“No, not this time. I’m too tired today, just want to get some sleep!” Jiang Li blushed at Zhou Chao’s suggestion but declined. After all, it had been an exhausting day, and she just wanted to rest.
“Alright, you go ahead and sleep. I’ll take a soak first!” Zhou Chao didn’t insist and turned to enter the bathroom. In a matter of moments, he had stripped off his clothes, leaving nothing on, and stepped into the bathtub.
“All, so refreshing!” Zhou Chao immersed himself fully in the water. Fortunately, the bathtub was large enough, and he stretched out his legs, feeling the soothing touch of the water on every inch of his skin. He couldn’t help but let out a contented sigh.
By the time Zhou Chao emerged from the bathroom, nearly half an hour had passed. Jiang Li had already fallen asleep in bed. Zhou Chao gazed at her with a faint smile, his heart warmed by her presence.
He lay down beside her and, without any hesitation, pulled her into his arms. Sensing her soft skin against his, he lightly kissed her forehead before closing his eyes and drifting off to sleep.
In a blink of an eye, several days flew by. During this period, Zhou Chao spent his time shuttling between the Jiang family and their courtyard with Jiang Li. He even pitched in to cook in the Jiang household a couple of times. Without Jiang Li’s help, Jiang Youdao would have almost convinced Zhou Chao to live with them permanently.
During this period, Zhou Chao also had a private conversation with Old Master Jiang. He initially considered obtaining a lithography machine from the Chinese Academy of Sciences. However, he later learned that due to the slightly outdated production technology at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Zhou Chao abandoned the idea of acquiring a lithography machine from there. After all, he didn’t know how long it would take, and it was better to build one himself.
Now that he possessed the technology and expertise, the only thing lacking was the right talent in this field. Zhou Chao had also gathered some information about the places where research personnel were most abundant and was already plotting his next move.
In the afternoon, beneath the cool pavilion in the front yard of the courtyard, Zhou Chao lay on a recliner, leisurely reading the physics masterpiece “The Feynman Lectures on Physics”. Although he didn’t fully comprehend it, it didn’t hinder his exploration and quest for knowledge in this field.
“Buzz, buzz, buzz!”
The vibration of his phone nearby pulled Zhou Chao back from the sea of physics texts.
“Hello, Master Yu!” The incoming call was from Yu Qian of Deshe.
“Hey, are you still in Jingdu? Do you have time to attend an event tomorrow?”
“I’m still in Jingdu. What kind of event is it, Master Yu?”
“Hehe, I’ve just finished shooting a movie, and both Wu Jing and Qiao Shan have guest appearances. The movie premieres tomorrow. I called to invite you to join us. What do you think? Can you make it?”
Hearing Yu Qian’s invitation, Zhou Chao remembered that Wu Jing had also invited him to attend the premiere of “Wandering Planet” last time but couldn’t make it due to other commitments. Zhou Chao was curious about movie premieres and thought it would be a good opportunity to support a friend.
“Master Yu, no problem. What time and where tomorrow?”
“It’s at the Zhu Yin Ear Legendary Cinema in Jingdu. When the time comes, I’ll arrange for Xiaoyue to pick you up!”
“Sure, see you tomorrow!”
As soon as Zhou Chao hung up, Jiang Li walked out with a plate of fruit salad and asked, “Who called just now?”
“Oh, it was Yu Qian. He invited us to attend the premiere of his latest movie at the Zhu Yin Ear Legendary Cinema in Jingdu tomorrow. We should go together!” Zhou Chao picked up a piece of watermelon with a toothpick and explained what had just happened.
“Really? I’ve never attended such an event before. I’ll have to dress up nicely for it, hehe!” Jiang Li’s face lit up with excitement as she began to imagine what she would wear for the occasion.
Zhou Chao pulled Jiang Li into his arms and said, “Our Ah Li looks good in anything, but since we’re guests tomorrow, wearing something too eye-catching might attract too much attention!”
As Zhou Chao spoke, his hands couldn’t help but wander on Jiang Li’s body. In a moment of distraction, his hands slipped under her clothes and reached sensitive areas.
“Mmm!” Jiang Li was still processing what Zhou Chao had just said when she suddenly felt an electric shock from her upper body. She couldn’t help but go limp against Zhou Chao’s chest.
“Brother Chao… please don’t!” Jiang Li blushed and looked at Zhou Chao, her eyes showing ripples of emotion.
“Alright.” Zhou Chao reluctantly withdrew his hands from under her clothes, but not before giving them a few caresses, eliciting soft moans from Jiang Li.
Zhou Chao patted Jiang Li’s perky buttocks and said, “Just wear something simple tomorrow.”
Feeling Zhou Chao’s playful hands again, Jiang Li blushed even more and quickly stood up from his embrace. She huffed and said, “Got it, I’ll go play with the cat, you naughty rascal!”
Zhou Chao watched as Jiang Li hurriedly went inside and burst into laughter. He didn’t expect her to be so sensitive.
As Zhou Chao was reminiscing about the earlier moment, his phone, which had been placed aside, rang again.
“Hmm? Why is Uncle Li calling me now?” The incoming call was from Li Yang’s father, Li Daoming.
“Hello, Uncle Li!”
“Xiao Chao, the goods you arranged earlier will arrive in Peng City tomorrow morning. Make sure you have everything prepared on your end, and then contact Old Liu directly when the time comes!”
“The goods are arriving? I understand, Uncle Li. i’ll make the necessary arrangements.”
“Good.” The conversation between them was brief. Both were the kind of people who got straight to the point. Afterward, they hung up.
Zhou Chao glanced at his phone and made a call to Lin Wu.
“Boss!” The phone rang once, and Lin Wu’s voice came through.
“Lin Wu, I need you to head to Peng City immediately. The goods will arrive tomorrow morning. 1’11 give you a call later, and you can contact the person there directly when it’s time for the pickup.”
“Understood, Boss. Should I also inform the contact in Peng City? It might make the pickup smoother.”
Zhou Chao pondered for a moment. After all, the production line was of great importance, and getting it as soon as possible would give him peace of mind.
“Yeah, go ahead and inform our contact in Peng City. It’ll make things more convenient for the pickup.”
“Got it, Boss!” Zhou Chao acknowledged with a nod and ended the call.
Holding his phone, Zhou Chao pondered for a moment and felt it was necessary to inform Ye Zhengfeng to avoid any misunderstandings later on. He immediately called Ye Zhengfeng
“Hello, Xiao Chao.. What’s up?”
