Chapter: 6173

This time, Ye Chengyun only had one purpose: to see his grandfather, synchronize the situation in New York with him, and discuss their next strategy."

Knowing Ye Chengyun was coming to Beijing tonight, Uncle An Chongqiu and Li Yalin had driven their car an hour in advance to arrive at the airport to greet him.

Ye Chengyun took off from Jinling and landed in Yanjing two hours later. Since domestic flights didn't require customs clearance, the plane slowed down and headed directly towards the hangar after landing.

Uncle An Chongqiu and Li Yalin had been waiting for a while by this time. Their car was parked here, and they were standing outside, smoking and watching over a trash can with an ashtray. When they finally saw Ye Chengyun's plane slowly pull into the hangar, both of their faces lit up. Without saying a word to each other, they tossed their cigarette butts into the ashtray and hurried towards the entrance.

The door opened, and Ye Chengyun stepped down from the plane, with them greeting him immediately.

"Ah, young master!"

"Mr. Ye!"

Their faces beaming with joy, they greeted Ye Chengyun.

Ye Chengyun smiled back, saying, "Uncle An, Chief Li."

Uncle An Chongqiu chuckled and patted Ye Chengyun's shoulder, asking, "You must have had a tiring journey coming all the way back this time?"

Ye Chengyun laughed, saying, "I'm not tired at all. I've already lost any sense of fatigue."

"Okay then." Uncle An nodded and hurriedly said, "Your grandfather knows you came to Yanjing last night and didn't sleep at all waiting for you. If you're not tired, let's hurry up and go."

"I am!" Ye Chengyun agreed without hesitation and promptly sat down in the red flag carriage driven by the two of them.

Ye Chengyun noticed that this red flag carriage had a very special license plate number, which seemed to be a special segment often talked about in the city, so he asked, "Cousin-in-law, where did this car come from?"

Uncle An drove out of the garage while answering, "This is a department specialized in helping us apply for investment, mainly the security department. The security level is high."

As they spoke, Uncle An added, "Your grandfather has been spending a lot recently. The total value of all our investments this time has already exceeded ten billion US dollars, covering a very wide range. In a few days, I and your second uncle will go to the southern region to invest in an enterprise that produces high-density power batteries for new energy vehicles. We're planning to set up a top-level production base there."

Ye Chengyun curiously asked, "How did An Family, which doesn't usually get involved in manufacturing, suddenly decide to directly manufacture cars? The investment cycle is long, and the labor intensity is relatively high, with limited profit space as well."

Uncle An smiled and explained, "New energy is indeed the direction of future car development. All over the world, people are promoting carbon neutrality and reaching for a carbon-free target. New energy enterprises are crucial to achieving this goal, and clean energy costs are lower and less dependent on imports. This can significantly alleviate the demand for oil imports in the future, as the cost of fossil fuels will continue to rise."

As he spoke, Uncle An added, "To be honest, your grandfather still hopes to invest in an industry that can create more jobs and integrate more labor forces and resources to upgrade our capabilities. The benefits would be greater if we could promote the entire industry's upgrading process."

Ye Chengyun nodded in understanding and said, "This time, my grandfather is prioritizing the investment's practical benefits for China."

Uncle An said, "Your grandfather has said that any project should first consider how much it can bring to China in terms of actual help; secondly, how much influence it can have on China in this field; and only then think about its profits and returns."

As Uncle An got out of the car, he smiled and said, "Ah, great-grandson, you've traveled so far. How could I not come out to greet you?"

He then took Ye Chengyun's hand and exclaimed, "You've been working hard these days!"

Ye Chengyun replied calmly, "It's not that hard, Grandfather. Let's go inside and talk."

"Alright!" Grandfather nodded and invited everyone to follow him into the villa. JrNovels.com
