I Go to the High Seas for Fishing But Get Hunted by an Aircraft Carrier-Chapter 394 Li Fu’s Persuasion

"Manager Chen, what’s going on?"

Lin Yuqing asked, puzzled.

Chen Xueli said, "Manager Lin, last night, I received a notice from our senior leadership, ordering our company to shut down for three years and pay a penalty of one million yuan."

"I know this is a huge loss for our company, but the senior leadership has already made their decision, and it won’t change. I’m powerless!"

"Shut down?!"

Lin Yuqing was stunned, not expecting the situation to be so severe, involving even the senior leadership.

"What exactly happened?"

With a frown, Lin Yuqing looked at Chen Xueli and asked.

"Sigh, Manager Lin, I’m not very clear myself, but basically, it was an order from above to stop our sales."

"Do you have senior management in your company?"

Lin Yuqing asked further.

"We have a vice president, the rest of the staff are new recruits."

Chen Xueli sighed and responded.

"Alright, I understand. I will do my best to help you get through this."

Lin Yuqing nodded and said, "But Manager Chen, don’t worry about this for now. I will try to contact your senior leaders to get them to hold off on this decision. Don’t worry!"

"Alright, thank you, Manager Lin!"

Chen Xueli said.

"Don’t thank me yet, let’s solve the immediate problems first!" said Lin Yuqing.

"Alright."

...

Meanwhile, after Ye Chen returned home, he initially planned to visit the store.

At this time, he received a call from Li Fu asking him to meet at Qinghai Restaurant.

After hanging up, Ye Chen went to the designated location.

In the restaurant, Li Fu and Ye Chen sat facing each other.

After ordering the dishes, Ye Chen spoke, "Li Lao, did you call me here because there’s something you need?"

"Um," Li Fu nodded, "I heard before that Situ Bo sought you out, wanting you to act in his movie. Did you agree?"

Ye Chen shook his head and said, "I haven’t agreed yet."

"Why?" Li Fu looked at Ye Chen, puzzled, "Don’t you really want to act?"

Ye Chen smiled bitterly, shaking his head and said, "Because I think that movie is too fake."

"Fake? Where is it fake?" Li Fu furrowed his brows in confusion.

Ye Chen explained, "I feel that in his movies, it’s all about staging fake actions on set, or performing things that are meant to scare people." fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

Hearing this, Li Fu nodded in agreement.

Ye Chen sighed and continued, "Also, some recent events have made me feel uneasy, so I’ve put it on hold for now."

As Ye Chen said this, a flicker passed through Li Fu’s eyes; he seemed to have guessed something.

After a moment of silence, he slowly said, "Little Ye, you should recognize your position and the choices you have. These are the only two paths you can take."

"Do you know? Situ Bo is a tough nut to crack. He has a very strange temper, and once he gets his hooks into you, it might be a long time before you can free yourself."

"I know that," Ye Chen nodded in reply, "I know Situ Bo is a very dangerous person, that’s why I refused him."

"As long as you understand!" Li Fu said, "So, the reason I asked you here is to inquire whether you would consider collaborating with him in the future."

"Mr. Li..." Ye Chen hesitated.

Seeing this, Li Fu immediately reassured him: "Ye, I know you’re quite stubborn in character. If you really dislike Situ Bo, I won’t force you. I just hope you think it over carefully."

"With a guy like Situ Bo, if you really work with him, it’s easy to be led by the nose and even be sold out."

"No matter what, you should think carefully before you decide, after all, this proposal is very important for you."

"Mr. Li, I understand your concern." Ye Chen said, "Don’t worry, I will not collaborate with him."

Seeing Ye Chen’s firm attitude, Li Fu could only sigh and say, "Since you’ve already said so, I won’t say more. But if you ever need any help, feel free to call me anytime, no matter what, I’ll do my utmost."

"Yes, thank you Mr. Li."

"Alright, let’s eat. After this meal, let’s go fishing together." Li Fu picked up a wine glass from the table and started to drink.

Ye Chen picked up his chopsticks and started eating, not initiating any conversation during the meal.

Soon after, Li Fu put down his chopsticks and looked at Ye Chen with a smile, "Ye, there’s something I’d like to discuss with you."

"What is it?"

After thinking for a moment, Li Fu said, "I plan to gift you some of my shares. Although these shares aren’t worth much, they were still left to me by my father. Please accept them."

As he spoke, Li Fu took out a checkbook from his pocket and swiftly began filling it out.

Shortly after, he wrote a check for 500,000 yuan and handed it to Ye Chen.

"This..." Ye Chen quickly started to refuse, "Mr. Li, this is too valuable, I can’t accept it!"

Li Fu smiled and said, "This is what I ought to do, as I want you to work in my corporation. This is a token of my sincerity."

"But, it’s really too valuable," Ye Chen still declined.

Li Fu insisted, "It’s fine, I trust your judgment. You definitely won’t misjudge people."

Seeing Li Fu’s insistence, Ye Chen couldn’t help but feel moved.

"Mr. Li, I understand your intentions, thank you."

Ye Chen accepted the check.

Seeing Ye Chen accept the check, Li Fu nodded in satisfaction and then said, "Good, now that the serious matters are settled, let’s find a place to go fishing."

Saying this, Li Fu stood up and walked towards the door.

Watching Li Fu leave the private room, a smile appeared on Ye Chen’s lips as he also stood up and followed him.

After Ye Chen and Li Fu arrived at the lakeside to fish, Ye Chen started to chat casually with Li Fu.

"Ye, I’m aware of your developments in Jiangnan Province."

"You’re a talented young man, and I truly admire you. If you’re willing, I would like to hire you as my personal assistant,"

Li Fu said smilingly, "Of course, the salary can’t match that of a foreign corporate, but I’m also ready to pay you half in advance, how about it?"

Ye Chen quickly shook his head saying, "Mr. Li, there’s no need."

"No way!" Li Fu said sternly, "I am your benefactor, and I hope you achieve greater success. That’s the only way I would be truly gratified!"

Li Fu’s words were sincere, indicating that he truly was Ye Chen’s benefactor and wanted to see him achieve greater success.

"Mr. Li, you really misunderstood. I don’t want to accept any charity, I just want to make my own way in the world based on my abilities," Ye Chen firmly stated, "So please forgive me, no need to give me more money."

Li Fu sighed and, shaking his head, said, "Ah, you kid, alright then, let’s just focus on fishing. Let’s compete to see who catches more fish, and may the best man win."

Hearing this, Ye Chen smiled and said, "Alright!"
