The call Bai Xiaosheng received was from Li Ni, who was bringing good news.
After returning from Arica, despite his busy schedule, Bai Xiaosheng did not forget to contact Li Ni.
This ti, Bai Xiaosheng did not hide his identity, and even apologized for hiding it before.
Upon finding out that Bai Xiaosheng was actually the owner behind Xue Lian Wan He, Li Ni was shocked, thinking Bai Xiaosheng had lost his mind.
But while on the phone, a line of luxury cars arrived outside Li Ni Workshop, with dozens of people paying a visit.
The high-level executives leading the group were from Xue Lian Wan He, whom Li Ni had t before, confirming it was no mistake!
Those who accompanied them were actually a complete workforce from Xue Lian Wan He, capable of forming an entire company.
Li Ni held the phone in awe, along with the staff in his workshop, dumbfounded as they watched the group of people line up neatly, led by a smiling top executive greeting him, faces full of bewildernt.
Subsequently, Bai Xiaosheng said on the phone that he had already arranged to purchase nearby shops to expand Li Ni Workshop, intending to collaborate with Li Ni to open a company.
Li Ni only needed to invest his technology, without being responsible for daily operations or any investnt, to enjoy 50% of the shares.
The company would mainly operate in two areas: high-quality purple clay teapots supervised by Li Ni, and those handmade by him, with Xue Lian Wan He responsible for promotion.
During the operations, if Li Ni had any dissatisfaction, he could directly report to Bai Xiaosheng...
Clay from Europe would be airlifted continuously, and major buyers in Arica had been contacted. Handmade purple clay teapots by Li Ni would start at a base price of 30 million each, producing one every two to three months to ensure quality and rarity, with an annual international tour exhibition.
Listening to Bai Xiaosheng’s speech over the phone, Li Ni was bewildered, feeling as if he were on cloud nine.
Finally, Bai Xiaosheng asked with a smile on the phone if Li Ni was willing to accept this cooperation. If he refused, Bai Xiaosheng was still willing to fund his research, help transport materials, or if he had issues with the share distribution, he could also ntion it.
Li Ni, after a full two minutes in a daze, agreed repeatedly but firmly insisted on not taking half the shares, only 30%; any more, he would definitely not accept.
"Also, I want to give shares to the staff in my workshop." Li Ni anxiously discussed with Bai Xiaosheng.
Being a sentintal person, he knew it was against convention, as his staff neither invested money nor provided technology, so why should they hold shares?
However, Bai Xiaosheng imdiately agreed cheerfully, with Li Ni holding 30% shares, and the remaining staff each with 2% shares.
The investnt in the new company would gradually increase, with future growth beyond estimation. The 2% shares had already made all the staff overjoyed.
This was a win-win situation. Bai Xiaosheng helped a friend, added a new company to his portfolio, and provided Sir Wei with high-quality purple clay teapots, resulting in a joyful outco for all.
Bai Xiaosheng also specifically emphasized that once Li Ni gained fa, a set of purple clay teapots might value in billions. He had imnse potential, and only taking 30% shares was actually a loss.
But Li Ni insisted on only 30%, and Bai Xiaosheng had to give in.
Today, Li Ni called specifically to share the good news.
In the past few months, both Bai Xiaosheng and he were busy and hadn’t had the chance to connect.
Bai Xiaosheng only learned that Li Ni’s two purple clay teapots were sent to the Wei Family and distributed among Sir Wei’s friends, fetching 50 million each, totaling a hundred million.
The first batch of premium purple clay teapots was also exported to Arica and Europe through the channels of Xue Lian Wan He, quickly opening up the market. It could be said that Li Ni Workshop had outpaced a well-performing dium-sized enterprise in a short ti.
"It’s all thanks to you, Sheng, no, boss." Li Ni was particularly excited. His dream was to create exquisite purple clay teapots and promote them worldwide, having his work accepted and admired. Now that his dream had co true, he was overjoyed.
"This is great news." Bai Xiaosheng was also happy. "You don’t have to worry about the operations, but the quality must be strictly controlled. Any problematic products, even if all were destroyed, must not be sold. Establish your brand solidly; your road ahead is long. Also, you can research new techniques and new purple clay teapots, but the finished products should be slow. I think producing one every six months is good, as rarity increases value."
After all, while making money, Bai Xiaosheng did not want to tarnish Li Ni Workshop’s reputation, nor devalue Li Ni’s work.
Such well-intentioned efforts were apparent even to Li Ni, who was relatively "clumsy" emotionally.
"Thank you so much, Boss Sheng! You helped achieve the greatest wish of my life. I truly don’t know how to thank you!" Li Ni was imnsely grateful over the phone.
Bai Xiaosheng chuckled, wanting to tell Li Ni not to say that, as he was legitimately treating this investnt as a proper business venture. It was his personal third company, from which he not only profited imnsely but also earned Sir Wei’s praise, which was a significant achievent for Bai Xiaosheng.
Actually, the future proceeds from the next few years from Li Ni Workshop alone were worth more than ten billion to Bai Xiaosheng.
"I’ve decided; I want to rena the company, no longer calling it Li Ni Workshop but incorporating your na, in gratitude for your kindness." At this excited mont, Li Ni suddenly ntioned over the phone.
Bai Xiaosheng’s smile froze for a mont.
Ron, to thank him, nad the company Zunbai Zhisheng.
Zhengdong Province, to thank him, nad the company Shengsheng International.
...
Li Ni was about to follow in their footsteps!
Those in the know would naturally know it was their "own decision". Those unaware might think Bai Xiaosheng had such a preference.
"Li Ni, you absolutely cannot change the na. Li Ni Workshop is quite good, and it’s already been promoted..."
Bai Xiaosheng hastily persuaded, but Li Ni thought he was being modest and insisted.
In the end, Bai Xiaosheng could only "get serious", "I tell you, if you dare change it, I won’t partner up, I’ll withdraw investnt, cut off your materials, and not participate anymore!"
Ultimately, at the cost of "tearing the facade", Bai Xiaosheng stopped Li Ni, who seed to be once again moved by Bai Xiaosheng’s selflessness...
Because of this, Bai Xiaosheng was both amused and helpless.
After hanging up the phone, Bai Xiaosheng let out a long sigh, feeling that dealing with a stubborn guy like Li Ni was more tiring than handling a bunch of tasks.
Li Ni’s call seed to remind Bai Xiaosheng.
The busy past three months made him neglect to contact many people.
In fact, Master Song Kai, Lu Yun, Zhang Xi, and the other seniors had received gifts from Bai Xiaosheng that he sent upon returning from Arica, including excellent tea leaves, purple clay teapots, and his ticulously copied calligraphy works, which they liked very much. Knowing he was busy, they hadn’t actively contacted him during this ti.
And then there were Lu Qingfeng, Zhengdong Province, Kevin, and other friends, Wei Moran, Shang Wanwan, Ariel, Yang Qian’er, Mo Xin, Su Lingyu, Chen Xiaoya, and many other beauties. Fortunately, they also knew he was busy recently, mostly just occasionally harassing him on WeChat.
Now, being free, Bai Xiaosheng thought it was ti to also say hello to them.
However, before Bai Xiaosheng could "flirt" with people, a call ca in, surprisingly from abroad.
Bai Xiaosheng, puzzled, answered the phone.
"Mr. Bai Xiaosheng, it’s , Soruns."
A cheerful laugh ca from the other end of the line.
The president of the European Division — Soruns!
This person had definitely helped him at headquarters.
Bai Xiaosheng imdiately greeted him warmly.
"You’re making quite the waves in the Greater China Region. I’ve been watching closely, and many of your reforms are impressive!"
On the phone, Soruns comnted with admiration, "Actually, by our group’s old rules, the new executive president has to visit each continent for a tour, but you’re special. Mr. Jiang Kuo blocked it for you several tis. However, I know you should be a bit more relaxed now. So I hope next month or the one after, you can visit my European region as your first destination."
"What do you think?"
