Reborn in 2000: Starting from Pursuing the Pure High School Beauty Desk Mate Chapter 610 : A Successful Gamble

Chapter 610: A Successful Gamble

Chen Fan was planning to make a move against the Zhao family.

Yan Qing imdiately understood Chen Fan's intention.

The Zhao family had a vast and deeply rooted influence in Yunhai. For Chen Fan to challenge such a formidable force, he would naturally need to leverage external support.

And Yan Qing was the external support Chen Fan wanted to utilize.

Yan Qing found it amusing. This guy was quite calculating, trying to get him on board with just 40% shares in a new company.

While amused, Yan Qing was also sowhat tempted.

There was no way around it, Chen Fan's proposal had hit his sweet spot.

If Chen Fan had suggested starting any other kind of company, it would have been different. But it happened to be an entertainnt company, and he even specifically ntioned the possibility of forming bands and releasing albums in the future.

Wasn't this like dangling bait right in front of him?

Seeing that Yan Qing was hesitant to respond, Chen Fan couldn't help but ask.

"What's wrong? Are you not interested?"

Yan Qing looked up at Chen Fan and decided to lay his cards on the table.

"You're planning to move against the Zhao family?"

Chen Fan was startled for a mont but didn't try to hide it.

"That's right. The conflict between and the Zhao family has beco irreconcilable."

"As you've seen, the Zhao family has already made two attempts on my life. Even a person made of mud has so temper. I can't just keep turning the other cheek, can I?"

Yan Qing suddenly said, "The Zhao family isn't as simple as you might think."

"Haven't you wondered why they can still stand tall despite having so much dirty history?"

Chen Fan smiled.

"Of course, it's because they have soone protecting them from above."

"You know about that?"

Chen Fan nodded, "And I also know that their protector is a deputy provincial governor in charge of economic affairs."

Yan Qing raised an eyebrow, sowhat surprised.

"Looks like you've done quite a bit of investigation."

Chen Fan remained calm, "I'm not a fool. I had to understand my opponent's situation before making a move."

Yan Qing was silent for two seconds, then suddenly spoke.

"I can join you in partnering for the company. However..."

"I can't help you deal with the Zhao family."

"You know, even though I have the label of being a governnt official's son, I don't dare to act recklessly in my daily life. Even the slightest move could potentially affect my old man."

Yan Qing didn't beat around the bush but gave Chen Fan a very sincere explanation.

"If I help you go against the Zhao family, so people might think it's on my old man's orders."

"You should know that the Zhao family has a deputy provincial governor backing them. It could easily lead people to speculate whether my old man is planning to make a move against him."

There are different types of governnt officials' children. So indulge in debauchery, using their family background to bully others. So have heads full of nonsense, seemingly determined to embarrass their parents.

But Yan Qing was different. He was clear-headed and intelligent.

Although he enjoyed having fun, it was always under the premise of not affecting his father.

He considered Chen Fan a friend, so he straightforwardly expressed his thoughts.

Chen Fan was slightly taken aback, then shook his head with a wry smile.

"You've misunderstood."

"I simply wanted to invite you to start a company together for fun. It has nothing to do with the Zhao family matter."

"As for the Zhao family, I'll handle it personally."

Yan Qing looked at Chen Fan in surprise.

"You... plan to take on the Zhao family alone?"

"Have you thought it through? You could very well end up losing everything."

Chen Fan smiled and raised his glass.

"We've got to try, right?"

"I'm still young. As long as the Zhao family doesn't kill , I'll fight them to the bitter end."

Yan Qing was a bit taken aback, then suddenly smiled and raised his glass.

"Just for that statent alone, I'll join your company."

"But 40% shares is too much. 10% is enough for . I'm just tagging along for fun. If you want to run the business, the company still needs to rely on you."

Chen Fan hesitated a bit, "Only 10% shares? Isn't that too little?"

Yan Qing chuckled, "Brother, what I value isn't the shares, but you as a person."

"Don't worry. Just based on what you just said, as long as you don't create national-level news, even if you lose in your fight against the Zhao family, I can still protect you."

This was Yan Qing's promise to Chen Fan.

For this promise, Chen Fan gave up one percent of shares in the new company.

He felt this deal was well worth it.

A week later, Old Yang was released.

To protect him, Chen Fan had spent 80,000 yuan in total, but he felt it was worth every cent.

In a roadside breakfast stall, Chen Fan t with Old Yang who had just been released.

"Sit down, let's have breakfast first."

Feng Pojun pushed a basket of stead dumplings over.

Old Yang didn't stand on ceremony and started eating right away.

The three grown n ate in silence, focusing on their food.

After finishing breakfast, Chen Fan picked up a bowl of millet porridge and took a sip.

"Originally, my plan was to have you stay by my side, but now... I'm afraid we'll have to change the plan."

Old Yang nodded.

"I understand."

In fact, he was well aware that on the night he stepped on the gas pedal and ran over those two fugitives, he had basically eliminated any possibility of working closely with Chen Fan in the future.

During these days in custody, Old Yang had secretly thought about this issue.

If Chen Fan was honorable enough, he would probably bail him out, give him a hefty compensation, and then they would part ways, each going their separate paths.

For Old Yang, naturally, staying by Chen Fan's side would have been the most promising future.

However... once certain things happen, there's no point in regretting them.

Just as he was preparing for Chen Fan to draw a clear line between them, Chen Fan spoke up.

"Those who know well understand that I'm a person who clearly distinguishes between gratitude and grudges. I never shortchange any subordinate who sincerely works for ."

"This ti you've done sothing for , and I won't let you down either."

"Staying by my side might not be possible anymore, but... I have another task here. I don't know if you'd be interested."

Old Yang was a bit surprised, "You... you're still willing to let continue following you?"

Chen Fan nodded, "Of course."

But Old Yang shook his head, "There will be risks."

Chen Fan smiled.

"It's not that serious, and I can transfer you out of Yunhai to another location."

Hearing this, Old Yang couldn't help but ask, "May I ask what the task is?"

"It's simple. I've opened a real estate company. But it's hard to achieve much success by just developing in Yunhai."

"So, I'm planning to use this real estate company to expand nationwide, looking at the whole country."

"I'll send out a team to investigate so projects across the country."

"I'll register a new branch of Qifan Construction in another location, and you can join this branch company."

Old Yang looked a bit troubled, "I... don't know much about real estate..."

Chen Fan smiled, "Of course, professional matters should be left to professionals. Your task will be different."

"Initially, you need to build a team. After training, you'll be responsible for protecting the safety of this investigation team. Once the branch is established and the first project starts, the company will set up a property security company."

Li Yang's eyes imdiately lit up.

Although Chen Fan didn't say it explicitly, he had made it quite clear.

If the company's projects in other locations start in the future, Chen Fan might very well let him be in charge of this property security company.

This was definitely a plum job.

From being an unknown private detective to potentially becoming the head of a future property security company...

Even with Li Yang's composed nature, he couldn't help but feel excited at this mont.

He hadn't expected that his risky gamble that night would bring such a great return.

He had bet right.
