Chapter 48: Unforgettable(1/2)
Chao Changchang, the phone number that few people knew the number rang again.
When I saw the caller ID, a feeling that seemed like a different life spread in my heart.
It was only a few days apart, but it didn't matter.
It's like a long time ago. What's going on?
"Hey." Chao Changchang answered the phone.
I have hesitated and I can't believe it.
More of the surprise with a slight trembling tail tone.
"What are you doing?" Yun Chaochao asked.
"I didn't do anything." After answering, Chao Changchang felt that these four words were a bit stiff.
It doesn’t seem like I’m planning to chat well, and I don’t know if I will touch the reverse scale or something.
Chao Changchang added a sentence before the atmosphere could be frozen: "I'm looking for a place to collect the martial arts secrets you left me."
"Where is it?" Yun Chaochao was already preparing to care about this issue.
Uncle Li told her that after the Chao Changlong Expressway, he followed Ge Gongming.
Director Ge also said that Chao Changchang slept at his house for one night and left early in the morning. He just moved away his luggage that was almost entirely full of books.
"Collection at the place where our dream begins." Chao Changchang held a book full of physical notes in his hand. In the illegal construction of Banmei Club, he studied the load-bearing wall that he could not know whether he could bear the load.
"What kind of place is that?" Yun Chaochao was curious.
"Well... it's a bit hard to describe. You let me think about it."
Chao Changchang paused: "It looks a bit like a standing abandoned container outside, which is placed next to an old building. It covers a small area, but it has two floors."
"It sounds pretty good, don't you have bookshelf?" An industrial-style building appeared in Yun Chaochao's mind.
"The side against the wall is full of shelves, including cement and wood."
"That book is just put on the shelf."
"Yes." This coincided with Chao Changchang's original plan, "It's just that the wall is a little cracked, so it's hard to pile all the books on the shelf against the wall."
Chao Science and Technology Master Changchang has always been a person who is good at applying what he has learned: "This house has no foundation. I looked at the location of the crack and probably couldn't bear the weight of a book with a whole wall."
"Is the wall cracked? Then it sounds a bit dangerous. Why don't I ask Uncle Li to find a house for you?"
"It's not dangerous. When you go to Tsinghua University to study architecture, you will know that such a vulnerable house is actually very strong." Chao Changchang smiled.
"I never thought you would tell me this." Yun Chaochao was a little happy but was more worried.
"I didn't expect that you could talk to me calmly. I was afraid that anything I said would make you angry."
Perhaps because they are far away from Eurasia, this phone call is a bit different from the usual style of speaking.
"How could it be? I have such a good temper. If you go out and ask, who doesn't say that Xiao Yun has a good temper?" Yun Chaochao talked about himself playfully.
"Okay, let's ask Si Nian later."
"You can pull it down. That person is so angry that he is so angry that he is really..." Yun Chaochao took a deep breath.
"Have a good temper." Chao Changchang smiled and answered the words.
"Hey, I said, you are not scolded for a whole day, and you feel comfortable not scolding Ski in your heart?" Yun Chaochao also smiled angrily.
"Yes." Chao Changchang admitted without hesitation: "I'm used to being scolded."
"Then you should be used to living in Warehouse No. 6. If you go back, how can you live in a house with cracks?" Yun Chaochao took advantage of the situation.
"It's not as bad as you thought. It's pretty good here. It's where our dream begins and the life I dream of." Chao Changchang said without any mercy.
"You can just pull it down." Yun Chaochao naturally would not believe such nonsense.
"Really. My parents got married here, but I was not born here, so I never lived there. My childhood dream was that my family could become smaller, toss and leave all the nannies in the house, and then force Ge's mother away and not go to boarding school. In this way, my parents couldn't do anything and could only stay at home every day."
"Your parents live there too?" Yun Chaochao's focus was very different from the tide.
"Yes, they came to recall the past, and I happened to have a life I dreamed of when I was a child." Chao Changchang said this very sincerely.
"Then you can't live in such an unsafe place." Yun Chaochao had not given up on helping Chao Changchang find a house.
"It's safe. It's been so many years and it's still standing. Why don't you wait until you go to Tsinghua University to study architectural mechanics and come and take a look for me?" Chao Changchang finished speaking, and found that he had sent an invitation.
"Isn't architectural mechanics a second-year course in our major? Do you have to live there for so long? Shouldn't you be my junior at that time?"
Another different point.
"I just said it casually. It won't be long. It will be demolished in a few months. My dad will take my mom here to recall it. I'm all pretty good here, it's what my childhood dreams look like."
Chao Changchang didn't want to continue to put the topic on himself: "How is your side? Is it still going well?"
"It's okay. The largest polyester webbing company in Europe, the industry association, filed anti-dumping and anti-subsidy lawsuits against us, saying that China's secondary industries generally receive government subsidies, similar to energy subsidies for enterprises, and that our labor and other labor are not obtained through market behavior, so the real cost cannot be calculated."
"After so many years, I'm still talking about the market economy just like Si Nian's lighter responded to the lawsuit?" Chao Changchang's surprise and these strange logics that have not changed for decades.
"It's almost the same. Anyway, whenever there is an anti-dumping lawsuit, we will use the prices of similar products in third countries to compare with us. If Yunyao Webbing wants to gain market economic status in Europe, it needs to apply for it itself. If it is recognized, the tax rate can be calculated based on the actual amount of income. Our team here intends to conduct a zero-tax lawsuit."
"Is it just Yun Yao's family?"
"This time the other party filed a total of 15 Chinese webbing companies, only one of which gave up responding, and the remaining fourteen responded. However, people from the industry association said that the other 13 companies intend to accept mediation and would probably be ruled at a tax rate of 110%-120%.
“Zero tariffs are not a tax rate at all, right?”
"No, if the tax rate reaches less than 2%, it is considered zero tariff. The tax rate of 110%-120% can also make profits. Accepting this ruling is a relatively safe approach. But in this way, the competitiveness of China's webbing will decline. My dad originally planned to follow the crowd."
"Did you tell your father that he is the only successor, why are you so embarrassed to let such a high tax rate suppress you? Is it unbearable? Old Yun can tolerate Yun Bao can't bear it?" Chao Changchang spoke in Yun Chaochao's tone.
"Haha!" Yun Chaochao smiled: "You guessed this?"
"You really said that?"
"The similarity is more than 90%. "Yun Chaochao's lips raised showed no sign of falling back.
"Then Boss Yun is going to work hard."
Every time Chao Changchang calls Boss Yun, Yun Chaochao's mood will improve.
"Mainly our lawyer team said that this is the first time that the domestic webbing industry has been investigated by the EU's anti-dumping and anti-subsidy investigation. As long as you win this time, it means that there will be zero tariffs for the next 20 years."
"That's a bit of a once-for-all." Chao Changchang expressed his support.
"Yes, we Yun Yao are big and formal, and we are not afraid of these investigations. I will definitely let Old Yun Chong rush." Yun Chaochao became more and more excited as he spoke.
"Well, I'm a little envious of the fact that I can fight side by side with the Chinese webbing industry." Chao Changchang was somewhat disappointed when he failed to witness it with his own eyes.
"Don't talk about him anymore. He shouted every day, saying that Yun Yao accounts for 1% of the global webbing, and that Wenzhou lighters once accounted for 70% of the global market, making it seem like Wenzhou lighters were produced by him." Yun Chaochao felt unhappy when he mentioned Si Nian.
"He said that it was once, and their family definitely accounted for less than 1% of the world. They all made metal lighters. The bigger market should be the disposable fast-moving consumer goods, right?" Chao Changchang said along Yun Chaochao's words.
Yun Chaochao was very satisfied with the long-standing squad: "Don't worry, even if his family accounts for 100%, it is not my food."
"Ah...I..."
This sudden turn made Chao Changchang wonder whether he should answer [rest assured] or [rest assured].
"What are you?" Yun Chaochao said, and his tone suddenly changed: "Do you know why I called you?"
"Didn't you call me to chat with me?"
"No, I'm here to provoke a criminal."
"Then ask." Chao Changchang looked like he was [as long as you slapped my right face, I would turn my left face over and let you slap].
"What's going on with you and Sibylle?"
"Who?" The tide was in a daze.
"Berwick Sibylle." Yun Chaochao said his full name.
"I don't have any impression." Chao Changchang thought for a long time but couldn't remember it.
"Then do you want to hurt Miss Sibylle's heart?"
Yun Chaochao was a little happy, unable to tell why, but he just couldn't help laughing, "She asked me if I knew you when I heard that I was from YC International."
"YC International is all Chinese students, where did Sibylle come from?"
"Ms. Sibylle is not from our school, you met at the United Nations Youth Congress. You speak on behalf of the youth in the Asia-Pacific region and she is from the European region. Haven't you left any contact information?"
"There are so many people in that meeting, I don't remember how many contact information I have left."
"Miss Ren also said that your phone cannot be reached and all social media cannot be contacted, but he is so anxious." Yun Chaochao teased.
"No, why are you talking about this?"
"That's right, the young lady asked me if I knew there was a high school in China called YC International."
"Then what?"
"Then I said I was YC, and the young lady kept holding me and asking as if she had seen a lover from her previous life."
"Aren't you going to respond? Why did you get involved with the young lady?" Chao Changchang was a little curious.
"Maybe you are more destined to be with Webbing? The largest webbing company in the EU is Sibylle. How about it? Do you want to call her? Please contact us carefully."
