In this era, although conditions are improving and the college admission rate is increasing.
However, Jinling University of Traditional Chinese Medicine is not some no-name, fly-by-night university.
It is a top domestic institution, second only to the 211 and 985 universities.
In fact, in terms of medicine, it is even superior to most 211 and 985 universities.
Those who attend this school are the elite who have braved the fierce competition.
What do parents strive for when they send their children to school?
Isn't it for them to succeed and make a name for themselves?
Now, for the sake of some people's reputation, their future employment is to be ruthlessly sacrificed for the sake of employment rates?
They can even stoop to suggesting working on an assembly line tightening screws?
The three-month internship is insignificant, and the students themselves have certain issues, which will definitely affect their future.
But after more than a decade of arduous study, they are to be sent to tighten screws?
"President Ye, I've offered the biggest discount, and the subsidy from above isn't much. If you're not willing, this money will be earned by others," Wu Tian urged.
"Teacher Wu!" Ye Yun's tone intensified, "Do you think I, who can offer a salary of 25k with 16 months' pay, would care about your so-called subsidies?"
"I call you teacher out of respect, and you should also live up to the title of teacher!"
"What do you mean?" Wu Tian's voice grew cold.
"What do I mean? I mean exactly what I say! What right do you have to be a teacher? Hmph, a beast in human clothing!" Ye Yun rarely got angry, but today, encountering such a teacher, he was truly enraged.
"As a role model, you are not fulfilling your duties! Which parent doesn't wish for their child to be successful? They sent their children to Jinling University of Traditional Chinese Medicine hoping they would achieve great things. And you? For the sake of so-called employment rates, for a bit of false prestige, you can even suggest they go work on an assembly line tightening screws?"
"You piece of trash, what right do you have to bear the title of teacher? In my eyes, you are worse than a dog!"
Ye Yun's words struck deep, each one imbued with his anger.
"Ye, you think your little Yao Ke is anything special and you've become so arrogant? Let me tell you, giving this good deal to you is a compliment! If you don't take it, plenty of others will! Hmph!" Since the masks were off, Wu Tian also resorted to shouting insults.
"Hmph, here's a piece of advice for you. People are watching, and heaven is watching! Be careful of retribution later!" Ye Yun hung up the phone immediately.
He didn't want to hear the voice of such scum for another second.
He was afraid he would vomit if he listened any longer!
On the other end, Wu Tian heard the dial tone and his hair stood on end with anger.
"Damn it! Ye, you're so principled! You're so noble! Just you wait, we'll see!"
In his eyes, this was a windfall, a godsend.
Just issue a certificate stating that the underperforming students found employment.
The subsidy from above was one thousand yuan per person.
Sign the document, and the money would be theirs for the taking.
The reason he didn't approach large corporations was twofold: first, people in large corporations wouldn't bother with such a small sum, and second, large corporations wouldn't want to tarnish their reputation.
After much deliberation, he felt Yao Ke Group was the most suitable.
A new company, with a weak foundation, easy to control.
That's why he chose Ye Yun.
He never expected to be insulted!
How could the always arrogant Wu Tian not be enraged?
No, you little brat!
I offered you a good deal, and you rejected it and insulted me?
I'll make sure you see the consequences of offending me!
After a moment's thought, Wu Tian had an idea and dialed a number.
"Hello? Xiao Tian, what's up calling your third uncle?" the voice on the other end asked. The man was Wu Tian's third uncle.
"Third Uncle, there's a guy named Ye, he founded a company called Yao Ke Group, and they have a factory on Shengyuan Road No. 24 in the new district, you know. Since their company has a production facility, they will definitely use a lot of electricity in the future, right?"
His third uncle was a leader at the power supply bureau, Wu Guotai!
"Him? I haven't heard of him. What's wrong?" Wu Guotai naturally wouldn't have heard of Ye Yun.
"This bastard, he's so unappreciative! I had a good business deal for him earlier, and I even emphasized that my third uncle is Director Wu of the Power Supply Bureau, and he has extensive connections there."
"But this bastard, not only is he unappreciative, but he also said..."
"What did he say?"
"Third Uncle, please don't be angry when I tell you."
"Tell me!"
"He said, Third Uncle, you are nothing, an old man about to retire, who cares anymore?"
"What!" Wu Guotai was furious!
"Third Uncle, don't get angry, it was that kid who said it, not me!"
Wu Tian's embellished words enraged Wu Guotai so much that he itched to personally confront the Ye Yun he had never met!
"Don't worry, Xiao Tian! Shengyuan Road No. 24, Yao Ke Group, his name is Ye Yun, right? I've got it! You want extensive electricity usage? Hmph, as long as I'm at the Power Supply Bureau for one more day, he won't even dream of it!" Wu Guotai finally expressed his stance.
The phone call ended, and a cold smile played on Wu Tian's lips.
Ye Yun?
Those who are unappreciative must pay the price!
"I'll make you kneel before me like a dog!"
...
After returning from Jinling University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Ye Yun didn't go home immediately but went to check on his company.
Currently, the first branch had officially begun production, and the second branch appeared to be close behind.
Within another week at most, it would be ready for official production.
A product cannot be launched into the market without sufficient stock.
Otherwise, if it became a hit in the initial market launch and there wasn't enough stock, it would be easy for opportunistic individuals to hoard it and inflate prices.
Based on the market estimations of Zhong Xiaowen and Wen Mengqi for Jinling, Licorice Medicine would become a nationwide sensation within a month at most.
The sales volume required then would be an astronomical figure!
As for the exact number, it was a bothersome problem that he would leave to Zhang Han to handle.
In his previous life, this guy was responsible for everything from production to sales.
Since he was currently out drumming up business, it wouldn't hurt to add more tasks to him. The capable should take on more work.
Next, Ye Yun had important matters to attend to: finding someone to promote Licorice Medicine, and meeting with the leaders of the Power Supply Bureau to discuss future electricity usage.
For the promotion of Licorice Medicine, Ye Yun had already considered a candidate.
Wang Wenwen!
Wang Wenwen, in her current status, was a popular entertainment star, possessing immense influence and traffic.
In this era, the hottest term might be "live-stream sales host."
This way, it would also elevate Wang Wenwen's popularity!
As for electricity usage...
Ye Yun wasn't stingy or reluctant to spend money on electricity.
In fact, tens of millions in electricity bills per month were insignificant compared to the immense profits of Licorice Medicine.
The main reason was the current emphasis on energy conservation and emission reduction, and the concept of carbon credits was about to be introduced.
Except for some specially authorized enterprises, most companies had strict electricity usage standards.
In the future, Ye Yun's production volume would be enormous, as it needed to supply the entire country, and even the world.
Therefore, Yao Ke Group would definitely need to increase its production capacity, adopting a three-shift system.
In his previous life, many companies' development was hampered by power restrictions!
At this moment, Ye Yun's phone rang!
