After Xu Yu took over, everything proceeded in an orderly manner. The next day, Xu Yu had already set up the company’s framework!

“Hmm? You said it would take at least half a month to register a tech company? I understand. You just need to submit the documents, and 1’11 take care of the rest. How’s the planning for the semiconductor factory groundbreaking ceremony?”

“It’s already planned, but we haven’t finalized the guest list,” Xu Yu said with a troubled expression.

“Leave that to me. Once I’ve sorted out the company registration, you pick a good day.”

“Alright, I’ll check the calendar, and the day after tomorrow looks good.”

“Oh, so you were waiting here for me! Have you been learning from Zhou Jilong? Well, I’ll take care of it. You just need to arrange the venue.”

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Chao couldn’t help but smile. Xu Yu had become quite resourceful, but that was a good thing; otherwise, he would eventually run into trouble.

Thinking about the two things Xu Yu mentioned, Zhou Chao still believed in taking things one step at a time; remaining calm and composed was the best approach.

“I can only seek help from Uncle Ye.” It was already past 4 o’clock in the afternoon, and he shouldn’t be too busy. So, Zhou Chao made the call.

“Hello, Uncle Ye, are you free right now?”

“Get to the point! Calling me at this hour means you either want to invite me for dinner or need my help. If it’s a dinner invitation, you wouldn’t sound like this. So, just tell me, what’s going on?”

Zhou Chao awkwardly chuckled. “Uncle Ye, it’s about the semiconductor factory. It’s about to start production, and I’ve registered a tech company to take over. The people below told me it would take at least half a month, so I came to you for advice.”

“Coming to me for advice is just an excuse. What you really want is to inform me in advance. You sly little guy, I don’t know what you’re thinking.

You have Director Fu Hongshan’s number, right? Just give him a call. For companies like yours, our industrial park provides strong support, and we can expedite the process during special times.

Did I really have to spell it out? You’re afraid of not getting in my good graces, so you called me to ask, but I won’t allow this in the future!”

“Uncle Ye, I understand.” Zhou Chao hung up the phone with a smile, ignoring Ye Zhengfeng’s last words. He knew he would have to do this in the future.

Without much thought, he looked up a phone number and dialed it. After a few rings, someone answered on the other end.

“Hello, President Zhou, what made you, a busy person, think of calling me?”

“Well, Senior Officier Fu, there’s an old saying that goes, ‘No news is good news’. Previously, we discussed the upcoming groundbreaking ceremony for the semiconductor factory. However, due to some company registration issues, we’ll have to postpone it for a while.”

Fu Hongshan instantly sensed that Zhou Chao had something in mind, but he had to resolve this issue. After all, the commencement of the semiconductor factory was crucial.

“President Zhou, regarding the company registration, I’ll have someone look into it tomorrow. After all, your emerging industry is crucial for Peng City, and we need to offer strong support. If there are any difficulties, we’ll find a solution!”

“That’s great, Senior Officer Fu. I’ll make sure everything is prepared for the groundbreaking ceremony, and when the time comes, you must find time to attend and cut the ribbon!”

“Of course, I’ll be waiting for the good news!” After exchanging pleasantries, Fu Hongshan mentioned that he had some documents to handle and hung up the phone.

With the company registration issue mostly resolved, Zhou Chao’s main concern now was the VIPs for the ceremony. He could confirm the attendance of Ye Zhengfeng and Fu Hongshan, but he still needed to carefully consider the others.

“There aren’t many familiar faces in Peng City. Tencent’s Ma Huateng is one, but I don’t know if he’ll personally attend. It’s unlikely. Let’s notify the others as well and see if anyone is willing to come.”

Zhou Chao then composed a text message about the upcoming groundbreaking ceremony the day after tomorrow and sent it to some of the people he knew. Whether they attended or not didn’t matter; as long as there were flower arrangements and banners, it would look lively.

As for figures like Ma Huateng, he would need to make personal phone calls. After all, his status required it. Whether he came or not was one thing, but the phone call had to be made.

Just as he was about to call Ma Huateng, all his phones began ringing simultaneously.

“Hello, Big Bro, what’s up?”

“Is your semiconductor factory about to start operations?” Li Yang’s excited voice came through as soon as the call was connected.

“Yes, didn’t I send you a message? We’re officially starting production the day after tomorrow. Do you want to attend the groundbreaking ceremony?”

“Of course, I’ll be there. I wouldn’t miss an event like that. My old man might come too; I’ll let him know and see if he’s interested.”

“Alright, then I won’t bother calling Uncle Li. If he plans to come, just give me a heads up.”

“Don’t worry. I called just to confirm. 1 know you’re busy. I’ll let you go.”

Watching Li Yang’s hurried departure, Zhou Chao shook his head with a smile.

“Uncle Li might actually come, hehe. Looks like we have one more person for the ribbon-cutting ceremony!”

After a moment of contemplation, Zhou Chao dialed Ma Huateng’s number. The call was quickly answered.

“Hello, Uncle Ma, are you busy? 1 hope I’m not bothering you.”

“No, I just left the office and am heading home. You’re calling for a reason, I assume?”

“Haha, as expected, nothing escapes your keen eye. I’ve established a tech company in Peng City, and it’s about to start production soon. So, 1 called to see if Uncle Ma has time to come and take a look.”

Ma Huateng didn’t immediately respond to Zhou Chao’s words. Instead, he pondered quickly in his mind, wondering what kind of factory would make someone with a net worth of over ten billion so interested.

Once Ma Huateng had figured it out, which took only three or four seconds, he spoke up, “If Zhou General personally invites me, I’m quite curious. I’d like to know when the event is scheduled.”

“The event is set for the day after tomorrow, April 8th. I’ll be awaiting Uncle Ma’s visit!”

“Alright, it’s a deal!” Hearing Ma Huateng’s agreement to visit in person, Zhou Chao couldn’t help but smile with joy.

Zhou Chao also called Qin Qingchun. Although Zhou Chao was now the largest shareholder in Sany Group, Qin Qingchun was still a true big shot. They would meet and chat casually at the event since they hadn’t had the chance to meet in person for a long time.

After considering it, Zhou Chao decided not to call anyone else. In the business world, he didn’t have many acquaintances among the big shots, so there weren’t too many familiar faces.

After making the calls, an hour had passed, and Zhou Chao had successfully sorted out the two things Xu Yu had mentioned.

“Lin Wu, give Xu Yu a call and let him know everything has been taken care of. Tell him to check on the status of the company tomorrow afternoon. As for the invited guests for the groundbreaking ceremony, there should be around five. You help him with the arrangements.”

“Understood, boss!”
