Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

On the 7th of July, Su Yun’s parents, her sister Su Tiantian, and and her brother Su Zipeng, carried many things in their hands and entered the high-speed rail station.

“Goodbye!”

“Bye sister, bye sister’s husband!”

They reluctantly waved their hands and bided farewell to Su Yun and Chen Jin.

“Dad, mom, you must take care! Tiantian, Xiaopeng, be sure to study hard, don’t let dad and mom worry about you both.” Su Yun exhorted them with red eyes as she ardously held her tears back.

“Dad, mom, come again soon.” Chen Jin waved his hand as well.

...

After sending away Su Yun’s family, Chen Jin once again drove Su Yun back to the tax bureau, thus ending the four-day “Entertainment mission” arranged by his mother. Unexpectedly, just as he parked his car at the dormitory located beside the tax bureau, a bank card was held in front of his eyes.

“This...this is my payroll card, there’s 38 thousand dollars of savings in it. I know that this is not enough, I’ll pay you back when I receive my wages for the next few months, only then can you return my payroll card to me,” said the woman with a faint voice.

Chen Jin’s expression immediately became solemn. “If you regard me as your friend, take back your card! Besides, am I lacking this little amount of money? Your parents came all the way from Shang Hai and you are telling me not to express some sincerity? I’m going to get angry if you do this again!” Chen Jin said while glancing at the woman.

“Okay...” Chen Jin’s fierce tone made Su Yun shrink back and pull her card back. She took her bag and got out of the car. “Thanks then. I still have to work tomorrow, I’ll take my leave.”

“Hold on!” Chen Jin stopped her. “Give me your phone, I realized that I have added your parents and siblings on WeChat, but not you. Let’s exchange contacts.” It was only after not seeing Su Yun for half a month that Chen Jin realized that not only did he not have her number, but he had not even added her on WeChat, so he could not even say hi. He really did not want to forget about it this time around.

“Oh, okay.” Su Yun’s face blushed a little as she took out her phone from her bag and allowed Chen Jin to scan her QR code. “I will be going now.”

He was now successfully on her friend list. Su Yun’s face was gradually heating up. She quickly hastened her steps towards her dorm, giving people the impression that she was fleeing from someone.

Looking at her beautiful back, Chen Jin smiled. A very wise and sensible girl. A family filled with positive vibes. Those were Chen Jin’s major thoughts towards her family. Indeed, the Su’s were not wealthy. Inversely, they were quite tight in financial terms. But looking at their family, there were no signs of stress, depression, or inferiority shown on their faces due to the short plight they had experienced. On the contrary, they were optimistic, positive, and striving to use both of their hands to combat the harshness in life and change their family’s living condition.

Su Yun, for instance, was admitted to the civil service soon after she graduated from a prestigious university. She was the only one that landed the position among thousands of competitors. Her sister Su Tiantian was enrolled in a second-tier university. However, she got herself a place in Zhong Shan University as a postgraduate student. She would be in the second year of her postgraduate studies for the second half of the year, but many companies were already sending her offer letters for high-paying positions. Her future was brimming in light.

Her younger brother Su Zipeng was only 17 this year. He looked a little rebellious and both of his sisters doted on him a lot. But he did not receive any special treatments from his parents. Instead, he was frequently assigned to some heavy labor work, as a man! Not only could he not rely on both of his elder sisters, but he must carry more responsibility on his shoulders and burden himself with heavier tasks. Besides, with examples set ahead of him, he must surpass his sisters academically. Therefore, not only did Su Zipeng become the family’s main force in doing housework, but he was also one of the top students in his school in terms of academic performance. He was an outstanding person.

In the second half of the year, he would be in his third year in high school and would be taking the College Entry Examination the following year. Chen Jin asked him which university he thought he could enter, and he confidently replied that enrolling into major universities would not be an issue.

Chen Jin felt ashamed and covered his face. Alright, a family of school-tyrants.

Summarizing the few days of interaction with the Su’s, Chen Jin’s biggest thoughts towards the family was that they possessed the correct outlook on the world, life, and values! Their family tradition was also superb! They could be described as a family filled with positive energy. The Su’s left him with a favorable impression.

...

A few quiet days had passed. Chen Jin, who was now well rested and adjusted, went to the office more frequently. However, on the 28th, he suddenly received an emergency call. The call was from Europe, and the caller was someone that he was very familiar with. It was the Chairman of Da Mi Technologies, Lei Xiao Jun! On the phone, brother Lei said with a rushed yet helpless tone, “I’m done for, brother Chen, your brother Lei is done for. Da Mi got in the eyes of Europe’s Anti-Monopoly Department, after investigation they affirmed that Da Mi is involved in monopolizing and they will be issuing us an extremely expensive ticket!”

Monopolizing?

Chen Jin was confused as he asked, “What did Da Mi Technologies monopolize? Which product manufactured by your company is capable of monopolizing? Is it that your company released a high-tech product that was really good that wasn’t available on the market?” His words were a little discrediting. But judging from the products made by Da Mi Technologies, most of their products were mature products, almost none of them were original creations. They also did not have a good grasp on core technologies. Essentially, they were excellent machine manufacturers. Their success could only be credited to their high product quality and cost-effectiveness, which ultimately made them popular among consumers.

Lei Xiao Jun smiled bitterly and said, “Brother Chen, what you said stung me, your brother’s heart. You are the sole reason that the phrase ‘Let them eat cake’ exists. Have you forgotten about the Love Mi Cleaning Robots? The product had gone wild in M city. The first generation of Love Mi Robots sold over 15 million units over the past six months, the second generation, which is even more advanced, sold 25 million units! Adding up the markets in other regions, total sales for both generations of the Love Mi Robots is over 50 million units! Twice the amount compared to the Wa-wah robot in local markets. Brother Chen, I was still laughing at you for being silly some time ago, the money you can earn selling the Love Mi Robots in foreign markets are way higher than that in local markets. You do not know how easy it is to earn money from foreigners. In fact, the foreigners have way more money, it’s a pity that you gave up this market! But now...”

Lei Xiao Jun shook his head and said, “I will not laugh at you anymore, brother Chen. Your considerations are right, and your actions are absolutely correct! The Love Mi Robots are getting too much money, and there are no similar products overseas that can compete with it. The entire market for cleaning robots is dominated by the Love Mi Robot. Now, Europe’s Anti-Monopoly Department ruled it as a de facto monopoly and will be issuing us a ticket.” His voice was deeply exhausted. “I flew to Paris and negotiated with the Anti-Monopoly Department for eight days and attended three questioning sessions, but it was all futile. They will not reduce the amount on the ticket by even a single cent! Besides, over there at the M nation, some departments are currently investigating the Love Mi Robot on suspicion of violating user privacy. The troubles that Da Mi are about to face have only just begun.”

Chen Jin, on the other hand, asked with concern, “How much is the ticket issued by the Anti-Monopoly Department?”

“7.5 billion dollars!”
