At least he's better than that dumbass Jiang, he still has two places to choose from.

...

Xilin Yuesheng High Precision Technology Co., Ltd.

Lu Zhongguo, a senior frontline engineer, suddenly received a notification to visit the Chairman Fan Jiasheng's office at the company's headquarters.

This made Old Lu somewhat apprehensive.

He was just an honest person who worked on R&D in the technical department and often had to go down to the factory. In the company's technical ranks, his position was considered high, but it was still far from the chairman's level.

He never had the privilege to report to the chairman alone.

Why was the chairman looking for him all of a sudden today?

It couldn't be that he was being laid off, could it?

Although he was indeed getting on in age, already 41, he was experienced and always willing to toil, and although the company's performance was not as good as in previous years, it hadn't reached the point of being unable to make ends meet, had it?

No, that's not right. If they were going to lay him off, it should be HR who would look for him; he didn't seem to have such clout as to discuss matters directly with the chairman. Enjoy more content from My Virtual Library Empire

However, stepping out of the factory and seeing that the car coming to pick him up was the boss's Land Cruiser, which was usually kept in the garage, his mind immediately settled down a lot.

Arranging a special car to pick him up definitely meant that he wasn't being laid off.

I haven't seen anyone given such a courtesy when being sent away.

Could this be a promotion?

Head of Manufacturing? Or going to the branch factory to be the plant manager?

Unfortunately, although the driver was quite polite on the way, he was tight-lipped and didn't reveal anything at all.

Luckily, as soon as he was brought to the chairman's office, he quickly got the answer.

"Lu, right? Here's the thing, I'll cut to the chase. Just now, Su from Xilin Licheng called me. He introduced a very important client to me who is planning to visit our factory tomorrow.

As this important client prefers to keep a low profile, Su specifically told me not to meet them personally to avoid the wrong impression. However, Su also specifically mentioned that the client hopes to be accompanied by a technician who understands both design and frontline production processes.

After discussing this with Chief Engineer Liao, he recommended you. Lu, this client is very important tomorrow, and you will need to put in your utmost effort to host. If we can secure the order he places tomorrow, your year-end bonus will be doubled."

Upon hearing Chairman Fan's words, Lu Zhongguo did not feel eager to try but rather felt a bit panicked.

He was not good with words, preferring to bury his head in his technical work. Having him host such an important client was like asking for his life, wasn't it?

So Lu Zhongguo immediately responded, "Chairman Fan, thank you and Chief Engineer Liao for your trust. But I'm really just a technical guy. I can handle blueprints, I have no problem with business trips for debugging machinery, but I'm not good a selling products. To be honest, I'm not fond of nor good at talking. How about bringing a salesperson with me?"

Unexpectedly, Fan Jiasheng laughed upon hearing this, "Haha, Lu, that's exactly why I need you. The client coming tomorrow is also not fond of talking too much. So, you just need to be there beside him. If he asks something, just answer, and if he has no questions, just follow closely by his side. Got it?"

"Ah?" Lu Zhongguo was stunned and mumbled, "Then, are all the areas of the factory open to this client? If he asks some questions about the company's technical secrets, do I answer those as well?"

"No problem!" Chairman Fan waved his hand decisively, "Remember, Lu, whatever he asks tomorrow, you answer! Don't worry about any technical secrets. I'm giving you special permission, and if you're concerned, I'll sign a written document for you and stamp it with my seal. Even if the company's confidential technical parameters get leaked, they won't fall on you."

Hearing this, Lu Zhongguo was bewildered.

Who was this client?

Such a big shot?

Yuesheng Group was, after all, a listed company with many robot products developed that ranked highly in the country. And none of those needed to be kept secret in front of this guest?

But he still nodded vaguely, answering, "Well… Okay, then."

Seeing Lu Zhongguo agree, Chairman Fan's expression became serious again, "However, I have to put the ugly words out front: if tomorrow the client asks you anything, and you know nothing, letting me find out you didn't know, you'll be in trouble."

"No worries about that. As long as it's about frontline technical issues, there's really nothing I can't answer. After all, you are the one asking me to say it," Lu Zhongguo said with newfound confidence, sticking his neck out.

He had worked in R&D, production, pre-sales debugging, after-sales service—he had done it all.

He really didn't believe that a client could ask anything in the factory he couldn't answer.

"Haha, that's the spirit I want to see. Wait here, I'll have my secretary prepare the document for you. Remember, whether we at Yuesheng Group can seize this opportunity depends on you, Lu!"

"No problem, but Chairman Fan, could you tell me in advance who the client is?" Lu Zhongguo couldn't help but ask in the end.

After all, he'd never heard of a single client bringing such a development opportunity before.

"It's Su of Licheng's future son-in-law and his daughter. Ah, this Su, he's really hit the jackpot. I've lived for the better part of my life, and I've seen plenty of sons-in-law rely on their father-in-law's strength to prosper, but it's the first time I've seen a father-in-law prosper through a son-in-law who hasn't even married into the family! Ah, Qiao Ze is just too young, oh… He's been caught early, sigh…"
