Chapter 235: Chapter 235 Comprehensive Service_1

"As for product quality, there’s absolutely no issue; otherwise, my Yonghui Supermarket would be the first to collapse," Zhang Xuansong said.

"Good, then here’s to a fruitful cooperation," Shen Dong raised his glass and clinked it with Zhang Xuansong’s.

"To a fruitful cooperation," Zhang Xuansong smiled and replied.

Both of them took a sip of the red wine in their glasses.

Now that the intention to cooperate had been expressed, the specifics of the collaboration would naturally be discussed by both parties’ teams.

These issues didn’t require their attention; all they needed to do was to give instructions when they got back.

"Mr. Shen, Mr. Zhang, I’m really envious of you two for finalizing the cooperation so quickly," Cheng Dejun said with a face full of envy.

He then also expressed his interest in working with the two men.

His Shengtong Express was a logistics company.

For the day-to-day delivery business of Zhang Xuansong’s Yonghui Supermarket, cooperation with a logistics company was essential.

However, this piece of business had already been taken by a few other logistics firms.

Shengtong Express simply wanted to share in the spoils.

Zhang Xuansong didn’t agree straight away but said he would consider it.

It wasn’t wise to cut into others’ business just because they lived in the same community and hand it over to Cheng Dejun’s Shengtong Express.

If it were some other kind of cooperation, he might have agreed on the spot, but he couldn’t commit to this kind of deal that sliced into someone else’s cake without offering much benefit in return.

As for Shen Dong, Cheng Dejun hoped Dongyan Media would request its brand partners to use his Shengtong Express for their logistics.

Given Dongyan Media’s current strength, it was in a position of advantage and could make such a request.

Shen Dong also said he would consider it.

What a joke—why should he make such a request?

There was no benefit to him.

Those brand partners already had stable logistics companies they were working with and naturally didn’t want to switch.

And Shengtong Express couldn’t match the strength of those logistics firms.

If he were to make such a request, it would have a big impact; others would have objections.

Cheng Dejun wasn’t offering a win-win cooperation plan, so naturally, Shen Dong and Zhang Xuansong were not interested.

Similarly, Ge Rui also wanted to cooperate with the three of them.

He dealt with insurance services, and each of their companies needed to purchase insurance for their employees.

Their companies had many employees; if he could secure the employee insurance business for all three companies, it would be a much bigger deal than the insurance business of Ao City Chamber of Commerce.

Of course, he knew that it was unrealistic for his company to take on the business alone.

He didn’t dare think that way because the implications were considerable.

He only hoped to get a piece of the pie.

Moreover, he was willing to offer certain discounts—larger ones than other companies.

This would be a win-win situation.

Shen Dong and Zhang Xuansong thought there was no issue with that, leaving the specifics to be handled by their respective teams.

It wasn’t like Cheng Dejun’s case, where only he benefited without a reciprocal win.

Even though the costs were slightly lower, the service and other aspects couldn’t keep up.

Therefore, Shen Dong and Zhang Xuansong didn’t dare to agree rashly.

At seven o’clock,

as the lights began to twinkle, all the guests took their places at their tables.

In the center at the main table sat Shen Dong, Zhang Xuansong, Cheng Dejun, Ge Rui, and the property management company’s manager, Tao Guohao.

Chen Yuyan sat together with the wives of these gentlemen.

The others were mostly grouped together by personal combinations.

The Century Garden Community was quite large, and most of the homeowners had come to attend.

The entire estate had forty-two tables set up.

During the meal, there was also a performance.

The property company had built a stage and invited some stars to add to the festivity.

There were singing, dancing, comic dialogues, martial arts, and other performances.

The atmosphere was quite good.

Basically all the owners had come to Mr. Shen’s table to offer a toast.

This was an opportunity not to be missed.

You absolutely had to offer a toast to these big shots.

Whether or not you could build a relationship with them, you at least got your face known.

In the future, you could say you had met before.

Even if some of them couldn’t remember, it still gave you a reason to start a conversation when you greeted them.

The gathering lasted until after ten o’clock at night before ending.

Only then did everyone start leaving the estate.

The property management company was very considerate and had arranged for many designated drivers to wait at the entrance; anyone who needed one just had to wave their hand.

You had to say, their service was quite thorough.

Zhang Xuansong was the only one with a driver; everyone else had been drinking and found designated drivers.

The owners were all quite satisfied with the gathering.

As Mr. Shen and Chen Yuyan were preparing to get into the car to leave, a portly middle-aged man approached them.

"Mr. Shen, Mrs. Shen, hello," said the middle-aged man, who was Ding Ronghao.

At the gathering, he had no chance to pitch an investment to Mr. Shen.

It was only after the crowd dispersed that he found an opportunity to approach and speak.

"Mr. Ding, what’s the matter?" Mr. Shen only knew the person’s surname was Ding and didn’t know his first name because too many people had come to offer a toast tonight.

He remembered Mr. Ding mainly because the man had a noticeable belly, making a strong impression; otherwise, Mr. Shen wouldn’t have remembered him either.

"Mr. Shen, it’s like this, I..." Ding Ronghao was just about to explain his situation when he saw Mr. Shen looking queasy.

Chen Yuyan quickly steadied Mr. Shen.

Having no choice, Ding Ronghao could only say, "Mr. Shen, I see you’ve had quite a bit to drink. How about I find another time to talk to you?"

"Sure, give me a call," said Mr. Shen as he handed Ding Ronghao a business card.

"Thank you," Ding Ronghao said excitedly as he received the business card.

Mr. Shen didn’t reject him, and as long as Mr. Shen was willing to listen, he still felt confident that he could persuade Mr. Shen to invest.

Because his team really was good and capable of developing hit games.

Mr. Shen waved his hand and left with Chen Yuyan in the car.

...

Monday.

Mr. Shen arrived at the company, instructed Wang Jingpeng to arrange meetings with Yonghui Supermarket and the insurance company, then went to the lounge to drink tea and play with his phone.

He had just had a couple of cups of tea when his phone rang—it was a call from Wang Xiaocong.

"Mr. Wang," Mr. Shen answered the call.

"Shen Dong, the survival game ’Juehai Qiu Sheng’ that Dongyan Games has launched is really addictive. I played it for two days straight and got hooked. Hurry up and get online to play with us, I’ve already called Mr. Zhou and Mr. Wan!" Wang Xiaocong said excitedly.

As ’Juehai Qiu Sheng’ had launched, Mr. Shen naturally told all his acquaintances about it. Whether they played it or not was up to them.

It was also a way to advertise.

"Come on, you’re gaming just as work starts? Isn’t that a bit much?" Mr. Shen said, somewhat speechless.

"We’ve been playing all night. We knew you had to accompany your wife last night, so we didn’t call you," Wang Xiaocong said.

Hearing this, Mr. Shen was even more speechless.

Even if Wang Xiaocong had called him, he would have played only a game or two, not all night long.

Wasn’t it nicer to sleep with his wife in his arms?

"Okay, I’ll get online right now," Mr. Shen said.

He had played the game a few times already and was quite familiar with it.

"What’s your game account name? I’ll add you as a friend and invite you to the room," Wang Xiaocong said.

Mr. Shen reported his account name, hung up the phone, went to Chen Yuyan’s office, took out a laptop, and logged into the game.

He had been playing the game with Wang Xiaocong and the others for over half an hour when his phone rang again.

It was an unfamiliar number. Mr. Shen answered the call.
