Chapter 1892: Chapter 635: Fame Manifested (Part 3)
A complex emotion, difficult to articulate, mixed with excitement and confusion, overwhelmed her.
"President Shen, truly a young and promising individual." Li Xindong’s tone was gentle yet forceful in its penetration, "I just heard from Chengguo that Rongliu Capital is also participating in this [Yanzhao High-Tech Project Conference], which shows its emphasis on our Yan Province’s innovation industry."
Shen Yuyan immediately replied, "Director Li, you flatter me. Our Chairman Tang has always emphasized that Yan Province is his hometown and is one of Rongliu Capital’s most important strategic strongholds domestically. Having the opportunity to contribute to the technological innovation of our hometown is an undeniable responsibility for us."
Li Xindong nodded approvingly upon hearing this, "Chairman Tang is truly considerate. Our Yan Province needs enterprises like Rongliu Capital, which possess both strength and a spirit of goodwill."
They exchanged pleasantries for quite some time.
Li Xindong then asked at the right moment, "President Shen, why... didn’t Chairman Tang come in person today?"
Shen Yuyan understood immediately, yet her expression remained composed.
With a smile, she explained, "Chairman Tang places great importance on the [Xinchuan] and [Guangyan] projects and has personally reviewed all the core materials. He delegated me to come here mainly to represent him in more in-depth, one-on-one dialogues with the founders of both enterprises regarding some cooperation details and future possibilities."
Li Xindong nodded after hearing this, "President Shen, to be honest, apart from reviewing these projects, I came this time mainly to schedule a meeting with your Chairman Tang through you. Next Monday, I was wondering if Chairman Tang has time, as I would like to invite him to attend an internal seminar."
Shen Yuyan’s gaze flickered, and she realized instantly.
This was all about "attracting investment."
Currently, the entire Yan Province is undergoing industrial transformation and upgrading, urgently needing the infusion of capital and technology.
The newly established $10 billion mother fund by Rongliu Capital has its core investment directions in new energy, biotechnology, high-end manufacturing, and artificial intelligence.
Which perfectly aligns with the future industrial planning of Yan Province.
"Director Li..." Shen Yuyan displayed just the right amount of hesitance on her face, "Our Chairman Tang just returned to Yan Province and has a very tight schedule. However, your invitation is truly important, so I will immediately contact President Tang to see if we can adjust his schedule accordingly."
Li Xindong waved his hand with a smile, "I understand, you go ahead and ask, and we can adjust according to his schedule."
Shen Yuyan bowed slightly, picked up her phone, walked to a corner of the conference hall, and dialed Tang Song’s number.
She briefly reported the situation.
After exchanging a few quiet words, she returned to stand before Li Xindong, her face showing both apology and sincerity:
"Director Li, I’m truly sorry. I just confirmed with Chairman Tang that he has to return to his hometown in Quan City tonight to handle some urgent matters, and he has to attend an anniversary event at his alma mater next Monday. He might not be able to return to Yan City until Tuesday afternoon."
Hearing this, Li Xindong was not disappointed in the least; instead, he smiled, "No problem at all, an anniversary at the alma mater is a significant event! By the way, I remember your Chairman Tang is from Jing County in Quan City, right?"
"Yes, he is going to attend the 50th-anniversary celebration of Jing County First High School."
"Haha, being able to cultivate a talent like Chairman Tang shows that the local environment indeed nurtures outstanding individuals," Li Xindong smiled kindly at Shen Yuyan, "Please convey to Chairman Tang for me that the anniversary is important, and he should certainly attend, to witness the changes in his hometown and alma mater. As for the seminar, there is no rush; we can always schedule it once he returns to Yan City."
"Alright, thank you, Director Li."
After another round of pleasant conversation, Li Xindong, accompanied by Zhang Chengguo and others, left the meeting room in satisfaction.
Back in the VIP lounge located at the inner side of the convention center.
Li Xindong’s warm smile faded, replaced by a serious and thoughtful expression.
He whispered an instruction to his secretary nearby.
The secretary understood immediately, picked up the work phone, quickly dialed a number, and respectfully handed over the phone.
The call was swiftly connected.
"Hello, Jiping, how have you been lately?"
"Haha, I wouldn’t call it an instruction, just wanted to touch base with you and... offer you a fantastic opportunity."
"...Recently, over in Xiang River, a private equity fund called Rongliu Capital has been making significant moves, receiving a $10 billion infusion... The chairman of this company is Tang Song, who is from your Jing County in Quan City..."
He solemnly introduced Rongliu Capital and Tang Song’s situation.
Only then did he slowly say, "Mayor Jiping, Tang Song is a golden phoenix from your Quan City and undoubtedly has feelings for his hometown. This hometown connection is something your city government should cherish."
"I’ll give you a little hint as well, the ’Xuanji Light Realm’ project led by TY Precision; Rongliu Capital is one of the main participants and is currently selecting core hardware manufacturers and supply chain partners nationwide.
In our province, we just happen to have the most complete supporting industry chain of TY.
If we can keep some critical production capacities of this project in our Yan Province and form an industrial cluster...
You should know better than I how significant this is for the upgrade of our province’s manufacturing sector.
I also hope Quan City can seize this opportunity to promote structural adjustments in its industry..."

Songmei Clothing, T2 live broadcast room.
The live show was in full swing.
Unlike He Yiyi’s "exclusive live broadcast room" akin to a luxury wardrobe, the T2 live studio was designed with a more professional live broadcasting atmosphere.
Ring lights uniformly illuminated from all sides, and huge high-definition LED background walls switched the main visuals of the brand in real-time, while robotic arm cameras on the left and right moved slowly, capturing different angles of the scene, accompanied by a slender track dolly camera at the front for close-up tracking shots.
