"I'm going downstairs first, you hurry up."
Seeing Lin Xiaowan storm downstairs, Xia Shiyu quickly said, "I'm going down too, Su Lin, come down quickly."
Seeing the two women come downstairs, Su Lin smiled, turned around, and went into the bathroom.
Ten minutes later, Su Lin finally drove Lin Xiaowan and Xia Shiyu toward the Su Group Building.
"If you dawdle any longer, we could go over for lunch," Lin Xiaowan said, glancing at the time.
"It's not even 9:30 yet, it's not late, is it?" Su Lin said without hesitation.
"It's not late yet. By the time we get to the company it will be ten o'clock. You can say you have special privileges because you're Uncle Su's son, but what are Xiaoyu and I supposed to say?" Lin Xiaowan frowned.
"Cough cough cough... Just this once. Xiao Wan, you can drive now, right? I'll buy another car later, and you can drive Xiao Yu to the company next time," Su Lin said weakly.
"I do have a driver's license, but I'm not very good at driving," Lin Xiaowan said somewhat unsure of herself.
Although she's not exactly a road hazard, she's only just gotten her driver's license and is already on the road, so it's understandable that she's a little nervous.
"What's there to be afraid of? If you're not skilled, you just need to drive more. I wasn't skilled when I first started driving either, but I got better with practice. Look at me now, I'm as steady as a rock," Su Lin said, rubbing the steering wheel.
Lin Xiaowan paused for a moment and then said, "I'll give it a try. I'll have Xiaoyu keep the windows open at all times. If we crash, we'll both jump out of the car immediately."
Upon hearing this, Su Lin couldn't help but chuckle; Lin Xiaowan's idea was truly amusing.
"Okay, open the car window when you get there."
"We've arrived!"
Although Lin Xiaowan and Xia Shiyu had seen the Su Group's building before, they had only ever passed by it and never thought they would work there.
The two of them came here today for work, and they were inevitably a little excited, especially since Su Zhenguo also works at this company, and they were sure to run into him later.
What will Su Zhenguo's reaction be when he sees her and Xia Shiyu?
Thinking about this, Lin Xiaowan felt a headache coming on. Su Zhenguo couldn't possibly be unaware of Su Lin's private affairs. If he came out in person later, Lin Xiaowan dared not continue thinking about it.
Su Lin didn't care what the two women were thinking. He drove to the garage, parked, and went straight to the front desk.
Although the receptionist didn't recognize Su Lin, Su Zhenguo had personally picked Su Lin up the last time he came, so she greeted Su Lin very politely.
Su Lin waved his hand and said, "Call Li Hongyang and tell him that I, Su Lin, have arrived. Ask him to come down and pick me up."
"Okay, Mr. Su..."
The receptionist didn't realize that Su Lin and Su Zhenguo shared the same surname, so she quickly made a call to Li Hongyang.
Knowing that Su Lin had arrived, Li Hongyang hurried downstairs.
Upon seeing Su Lin, Li Hongyang patted Su Lin on the shoulder and said happily, "You didn't even give me a heads-up before you came, so I could have come down to pick you up earlier."
Su Lin chuckled and said, "I was worried that Brother Yang might be too busy, so I thought it would be better to come to the company and talk to you."
"Heh! I thought you weren't coming to the company today, but you did come after all."
"Sigh, the old man conscripted me to be the vice president, I had no choice but to shrug." Su Lin said.
Li Hongyang laughed and said, "I should have arrested you a long time ago. I heard that your chain supermarket is now valued at 3 billion yuan. It's unbelievable that you could build a multi-billion yuan company from scratch in just a few months. I should have agreed when you tried to recruit me."
"Haha, Yang-ge, don't be so polite. Even if I dragged you there now, you wouldn't go."
Li Hongyang smiled and said, "Let's go, let's talk upstairs."
Su Lin nodded, then told Lin Xiaowan and Xia Shiyu to follow.
Li Hongyang looked at Su Lin with some curiosity; "Who are these two?"
"My girlfriend, I brought her to work with me."
Li Hongyang gave a thumbs up: "You're really something, bringing your girlfriend to work at the company."
Su Lin laughed and said, "Brother Yang, don't underestimate my two girlfriends. You'll regret it if you do."
Li Hongyang raised an eyebrow; "Oh? Looks like you've got some skills..."
Su Lin could tell from Li Hongyang's expression that he didn't take it to heart at all. If he didn't take it to heart, so be it. Anyway, Lin Xiaowan and Xia Shiyu would be doing most of the work in the future, and he would know how strong the two women's business abilities were then.
At the same time, Su Lin also foresaw the scenario in which Li Hongyang would be exploited in the near future.
"By the way, what's the situation with my dad? He even brought me here. Won't that cause any problems for the company?" Su Lin asked with concern.
Li Hongyang sighed and then explained, "The company's situation is very complicated right now. The three technologies that President Su brought out are too amazing and are enough to change the technological landscape. So you know, a lot of industrial spies have infiltrated, or some have simply been bribed."
Su Lin sighed, "Such things are unavoidable."
"Yes, President Su is hesitant to hire anyone right now, but the company needs to expand, so he had no choice but to call you here. Others might be corporate spies, but you certainly aren't."
After listening to Li Hongyang's explanation, Su Lin finally understood why Su Zhenguo was in such a hurry to have him come to work at the company.
Simply put, the Su family's business was growing too fast, and there were no suitable candidates for management. Even if there were, they didn't dare to use them, so they brought him in.
"If you ask me, President Su's patience in waiting until now to call you here is already quite remarkable."
"What, you've already made a move?" Su Lin said coldly.
Li Hongyang squinted and nodded; "We've already discovered quite a few, but many more are lurking in the shadows."
"Hehe...that's really interesting. In a bit, you can help me arrange jobs for my two girlfriends first, then I'll go upstairs and talk to my dad," Su Lin said with a smile.
His eyes can detect loyalty; he can tell at a glance which people are spies and which aren't.
Su Zhenguo was stupid; he should have called me earlier when faced with such a problem.
However, considering that Su Zhenguo was unaware of his abilities, Su Lin felt it was normal.
Li Hongyang looked at Wuwu; "Are you serious about getting them to do things?"
"Nonsense, they're definitely 3.3 better than Pearl. Don't underestimate Xiaoyu and Xiaowan. Even if you leave the company to them, they can manage it perfectly well," Su Lin said confidently.
"No... Su Lin, don't drag me into your bragging. I know my own limitations," Lin Xiaowan quickly said.
Xia Shiyu also said anxiously, "I...I don't have that much ability, Su Lin, don't talk nonsense."
Su Lin felt somewhat helpless, realizing that neither of the two women were aware of their own capabilities.
"Ding~!!"
"We're here, Su Lin. Let me show you your office."
"good."
Su Lin patted each of them once, then said, "If I say you two are good, then you're good. No one's allowed to be modest."
Lin Xiaowan wasn't buying Su Lin's act and glared at him.
Xia Shiyu bit her lip, wanting to say something, but in the end she succumbed to Su Lin's imposing presence.
Seeing Su Lin's spoiled and dissolute behavior, which perfectly exemplified the negative traits of a privileged second-generation rich kid, Li Hongyang shook his head.
If the company's employees treat Su Lin as an incompetent rich kid, they'll definitely suffer a great loss.
He was somewhat looking forward to seeing what kind of sparks Su Lin would create at the company.

"This is your office. This is the work area. There's also a lounge over here. I heard you have a habit of taking a lunch break, so I specially prepared a lounge for you here. There are two rooms over here, one for your assistant and one for your secretary. The rooms are a bit small, but they are fully equipped."
Li Hongyang winked at Su Lin, and Su Lin instantly understood what he meant.
The person who can serve as Su Zhenguo's assistant is indeed quite capable, having a clear understanding of his preferences.
Su Lin returned a meaningful smile.
Only Lin Xiaowan, standing to the side, watched the two of them lost in thought.
She had a premonition that Li Hongyang was doing this on purpose; otherwise, why would he set up a lounge in his office? And the lounge was practically a bedroom.
Lin Xiaowan felt that Su Lin must have given the order in advance, so she pinched Su Lin with a smile.
Su Lin's smile remained unchanged, but he looked at Lin Xiaowan with a puzzled expression.
Lin Xiaowan was even more annoyed to see that Su Lin was still pretending to be stupid.
"Vice President Su, what do you think of this office? Are you satisfied?"
Su Lin nodded: "Of course I'm satisfied. The office you set up must be pretty good."
"That's good, that's good."
Su Lin smiled and then asked, "Brother Yang, tell me about my job duties so that Xiao Wan and Xiao Yu can keep an eye on things."
"The boss wants you to get involved in mobile phone matters first. Our company's first mobile phone is expected to be launched on August 31st, with mass production and online sales starting in October. So your task is very urgent right now. However, one advantage is that the company can buy any research institute that the company wants in China. The company has plenty of money," Li Hongyang said with a smile.
"Released on August 31st? You're not kidding, are you, Yang?" Su Lin was completely stunned.
Even with a complete set of blueprints, it would be nothing short of a pipe dream to produce a finished mobile phone in such a short time.
Li Hongyang said with a serious expression, "I'm not joking at all. According to President Su, the blueprints have been designed and many components have already been made. Only the chip and the system are still a bit troublesome. Do you think the phone will be released soon once these are overcome?"
Su Lin thought about it and felt that it seemed normal.
The reason Apple took several years to develop its product is because it developed it from scratch, while the blueprints provided by Su Lin were readily available, requiring only a one-to-one replica.
"Now that you mention it, it does seem quite easy," Su Lin chuckled.
Li Hongyang shook his head: "That's not necessarily true. The system is a big problem, as is the chip. We already have chip cooperation with foreign countries, but our own lithography machine will take time, so we can only wait."
"However, I asked a few days ago, and the chip supply should be able to catch up. The main problem now is the system."
