Chapter 178 We've Got It All
Pilot first, then promote, proceed step by step, and make steady progress. This is the safest approach Jiang Yang can come up with at the moment. Chu Lan nodded repeatedly after hearing this and expressed his willingness to personally make a trip to the south to conduct research.
“I have complete confidence in your going to investigate. However, besides investigating the factory construction, I have some other ideas that I'd like to discuss with you.”
Upon hearing this, Chu Lan immediately perked up. She knew that Jiang Yang was about to unleash another "big move," so she sat up straight and listened attentively.
"Women's clothing is just the first shot in making our 'Yangxin Company' famous. Besides clothes, we can make anything that ordinary people need, such as food, drinks, and daily necessities!"
"You mean...we'll cover all your needs, from food and clothing to accommodation and transportation?"
"That's right! As long as the time is right, we'll do all of these! Our Yangxin can't just focus on the small cake of clothing; if we're going to do it, we'll do it big and comprehensive!"
Chu Lan watched Jiang Yang give instructions on Jiangmen, his eyes filled with admiration. Following Jiang Yang was the best thing he had ever done in his life.
"You damned Jiang Yang! You stinking Jiang Yang! How dare you insult me in public!"
"That's right! If it weren't for Sister Zhou's sake, I would never have let it go like this!"
"No! This isn't over!"
Su Jingtong's eyes turned sinister, and she and Xu Dan immediately plotted to trip up Jiang Yang. These two girls had completely united as one in their desire for revenge against Jiang Yang.
Meanwhile, Jiang Yang's private research institute was bustling with activity.
Because this day marked the official opening of the research institute.
Early in the morning, Cai Peiyuan, the president of Yenching University, arrived at the research institute with a large entourage of the university committee. Cai Peiyuan was considered Jiang Yang's mentor, and he had high hopes for Jiang Yang's research institute.
Besides Cai Peiyuan, many other media reporters also arrived at the scene early. Among them were several heavyweight central media outlets and twenty or thirty local media outlets, making it quite a large gathering.
At the unveiling ceremony, Jiang Yang, dressed in a sharp suit, stood there with an upright posture and extraordinary demeanor. Under the gaze of everyone, Jiang Yang, Hu Kang, and Cai Peiyuan walked forward side by side and pulled down the red silk covering the plaque together.
"Hualong Research Institute"
The five powerful characters also heralded the official birth of the first private research institute in China.
A round of enthusiastic applause erupted at the scene, and reporters rushed to capture this historic moment.
After the unveiling ceremony, Jiang Yang and Hu Kang walked into the conference room side by side, ready to be interviewed by reporters. The conference room was already packed, and reporters from all walks of life were fully prepared and waiting for Jiang Yang and the others to enter.
"President Jiang, why did you decide to establish a private research institute? What prompted you to make this decision?"
"That's a good question from the reporter. Since the reform and opening up, my country's economy has been booming, and people's living standards have been rising steadily, which is evident to all. As an entrepreneur, I know that to meet the growing material and cultural needs of the people, we must continuously innovate and launch new products. Only in this way can enterprises remain invincible in the fierce market competition. The establishment of Hualong is precisely to better serve this goal. We will dedicate ourselves to developing various new technologies and products to provide people with more and better choices."
Jiang Yang answered many reporters' questions with great sincerity. He was well aware that the development of the research institute was inseparable from media coverage. Most of the reporters asked only polite, perfunctory questions, until one reporter asked:
"President Jiang, you just mentioned Yangxin Company. May I ask what the relationship is between Hualong and Yangxin?"
"Hualong is a subsidiary of Yangxin, and Yangxin is Hualong's biggest supporter. Hualong will provide Yangxin with continuous technical support to help Yangxin grow and develop. On this occasion, I would also like to share some news with you. Yangxin plans to enter the bicycle and motorcycle industry in the near future. Hualong's next research focus will also be on these two areas."
Reporters raised their cameras to capture this important moment, which was bound to be another explosive news story.
"President Jiang, your words are well said, but I have a question. Are you trying to change the subject? As far as I know, many of Hualong's scientific research achievements rely on Yenching University, right? Isn't there any national investment involved? Using these achievements to make money is, at best, speculation, and at worst, theft of national wealth!"
Suddenly, a reporter sitting in the back row stood up and questioned him. Jiang Yang had noticed him earlier. The press conference was nearing its end, and all the major media outlets had asked questions and taken photos. Only this person hadn't asked any questions or had any photographers following him. He was undoubtedly there to cause trouble. As for who sent him, Jiang Yang didn't know yet, but he should find out soon enough.
Cameras and video cameras instantly pointed at the questioner, but Jiang Yang remained calm and countered with a question:
"Excuse me, reporter, which media outlet do you work for?"
"I am but a humble person, from the 'New Era' newspaper!"
"'New Era' newspaper? I'm sorry, I don't think I've heard of it. But that's alright. As a reporter, you naturally have the right to ask questions. However, I don't quite understand what you meant earlier. When did I ever use the country's scientific research achievements for personal gain?"
"President Jiang, you're pretending to be ignorant! As far as I know, Hualong is a joint venture between you and Yenching University, right? Then, naturally, a portion of the research results belong to the state. If Yang Xin uses these research results to make money, isn't that stealing the nation's research achievements?"
All eyes were on Jiang Yang. Everyone wanted to see how this young, rising star would respond to such sharp criticism.
Jiang Yang's gaze slowly swept across the entire room, taking in every expression—surprise, confusion, schadenfreude, or thoughtfulness. After a moment of contemplation, Jiang Yang responded:
"Hualong is indeed a research institute that I co-founded with Yenching University. I never deny that. But that doesn’t mean I would take advantage of the university, much less take advantage of the country."
"From now on, any research results from Hualong will belong to both me and Yenching University. My company, Yangxin Company, will definitely sign relevant agreements with Yenching University and pay certain patent fees if it wants to use these research results. All of this will be made public, and we welcome supervision from all sectors. I wonder if this answer satisfies this friend?"
