Chapter Forty-Eight: Toothless and Unforgettable
The phone rang again.
Seeing the caller ID, a feeling of being separated from the world spreads in the bottom of my heart.
Obviously, they haven't been separated for a few days, so it doesn't matter if they have anything to do with it.
It's like it's every three autumns, what's going on?
"Hey. Chao Chang picked up the phone.
There have been hesitations, there have been disbelief.
It's more of a surprise with a slight tremor at the end.
"What are you doing?" Yun Chaochao asked.
"Didn't do anything. After answering, Chao Changchang felt that these four words were a bit stiff.
It doesn't look like it's going to have a good chat, and I don't know if it's going to touch the scales or something.
Chao Changchang added a sentence before the atmosphere could be quick-frozen: "I'm looking for a place to collect the martial arts secrets you left me." β
"Where is the collection?" Yun Chaochao was originally ready to care about this issue.
Uncle Li told her that after the tide grew at a high speed, he followed Ge Gongming.
Director Ge also said that Chao Chang slept at his house for a night, left early in the morning, and just moved away almost all the luggage.
"Collection in the place where our family's dream began. Chao Changchang held a book full of physics notes in his hand, and in the illegal construction of the Banmei Society, he studied the load-bearing wall that he didn't know if it could bear the load.
"What kind of place is that?" Yun Chaochao wondered.
"Hmm...... It's a bit hard to describe. You make me think about it. β
The tide chief paused: "From the outside, it looks a bit like a discarded shipping container standing next to an old building. The floor area is not too large, but there are two floors. β
"Sounds like it's not bad, doesn't it have a bookshelf?" Yun Chaochao's mind appeared, an industrial-style building.
"On one side of the wall are shelves, concrete and wood. β
"It would be nice to put the book on the shelf. β
"Hmm. This coincides with the original plan of Chao Changchang, "but the wall is a little cracked, and it is difficult to pile all the books on the shelves against the wall." β
Chao Science Tyrant Changchang has always been a person who is good at applying what he has learned: "This house has no foundation, and I looked at the location of the crack, and it should not be able to bear the weight of a whole wall of books. β
"Is the wall cracked? That sounds a bit dangerous, why don't I ask Uncle Li to help you find a house?"
"It's not dangerous, when you go to Tsinghua University to study architecture, you will know that this kind of house that looks vulnerable is actually very strong. Chao Chang smiled.
"I didn't think you'd talk to me about that. Yun Chaochao was a little happy, but more still not at ease.
"I didn't expect you to talk to me calmly, I was afraid that I would make you angry if I said something. β
Maybe it's because it's far away from Eurasia, this phone call is a little different from the way the two usually speak.
"How come, I am a girl with such a good temper, you go out to inquire, who doesn't say that Xiaoyun always has a good temper. Yun Chaochao said something about himself playfully.
"Okay, I'll ask Si Nian later. β
"You can pull it down, that person is really angry when he sees it, and I really ......" Yun Chaochao took a deep breath.
"Good temper. Chao Chang smiled and took the words.
"Eh, I said you, don't you not be scolded for a day, and you don't scold Shusky in your heart?" Yun Chaochao also laughed angrily.
"Hmm. Chao Changchang admitted without a trace of hesitation: "I'm used to being scolded." β
"Then you should be used to living in warehouse six, you go back, how can you live in a house with cracks. "The clouds are in the morning.
"It's not as bad as you think, it's a good place, it's the place where our family's dream begins, and it's the life I've always dreamed of. "Chao Changchang said it without reluctance at all.
"You can pull it down. "Yun Chaochao would not believe such nonsense.
"Really. My mom and dad got married here, but I wasn't born here, so I didn't live here. When I was a child, my dream was that my family could become smaller, toss away all the nannies in the family, and then forced Ge's mother away and not go to boarding school. In this way, my parents can't do anything, so they can only stay at home every day. β
"Where do your parents live?" Yun Chaochao's focus is different from Chaochang's.
"Yes, the two of them came to reminisce about the past, and I just happened to come over to live the life I dreamed of as a child. Chao Changchang said this very sincerely.
"Then you can't live in such an unsafe place. "Yun Chaochao hasn't given up on helping Chao Chang 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 learn construction mechanics, and then come and help me take a look?" Chao Changchang finished speaking, only to find that he had sent out an invitation.
"Isn't architectural mechanics a second-year class in our major? You're going to live there for so long? Shouldn't you have been my junior at that time?"
Another different point.
"I just said it casually, it won't be long, this place will be demolished in a few months, and my dad just brought my mom over to reminisce. I'm all fine here, it's what I dreamed of when I was a kid. β
Chao Changchang didn't want to continue to put the topic on himself: "How are you over there, is it going well?"
"It's okay, Europe's largest polyester webbing company, together with the industry association, filed an anti-dumping and anti-subsidy lawsuit against us, saying that China's secondary industry is generally subsidized by the government, similar to the energy subsidy of enterprises, and that our labor is not obtained through market behavior, so the real cost cannot be calculated. β
"After so many years, are you still talking about the market economy just like when Si Nian's family responded to the lawsuit with a lighter?"
"Pretty much. Anyway, as soon as there is an anti-dumping lawsuit here, it will use the price of similar products in a third country to compare with us, if Yunyao ribbon wants to obtain market economy status in Europe, it needs to apply for its own, and if it is recognized, the tax rate can be calculated according to the actual amount. The team on our side is going to fight a zero-tariff lawsuit. β
"Is it just Yunyao's family?"
"This time, the other party filed a total of 15 Chinese ribbon companies, only one gave up responding to the lawsuit, and the remaining 14 responded to the lawsuit, but the industry association said that the other 13 intend to accept mediation, and will probably be ruled a tax rate of 110%-120%. β
"Zero tariff is no tax rate at all, right?"
"No, if the tax rate is less than 2%, it is considered zero tariff. The tax rate of 110%-120% can also be profitable, and it is safer to accept this ruling. But in this way, the competitiveness of China's webbing will decline. My dad was going to follow the crowd. β
"Did you tell your dad that he was your successor, how could you be embarrassed to let such a high tax rate overwhelm you? "Chao Chang spoke in the tone of Yun Chaochao.
"Haha!" Yun Chaochao smiled: "You guessed this?"
"That's what you say?"
"The similarity is more than 90%. The corners of Yun Chao's mouth have not shown any signs of retreating.
"Boss Yun is going to come on. β
Every time Chao Changchang calls Boss Yun, Yun Chaochao's mood will improve.
"The main thing is that our lawyer team said that this is the first time that the domestic ribbon industry has been investigated by the EU for anti-dumping and anti-subsidy, as long as it wins this time, it means that the next 20 years will be zero tariff. β
"That's a bit of a one-and-done thing. Chao Chang expressed his support.
"That's right, our Yun Yao is big and regular, and we are not afraid of these investigations, I will definitely let Yun Lao rush to rush. The more Yun Chaochao spoke, the more excited he became.
"Well, I'm a little envious of Si Nian, who can fight side by side with the Chinese ribbon industry. "Chao Changchang couldn't witness it with his own eyes, and he was somewhat disappointed.
"Don't talk about him. shouting every day, saying that Yunyao accounts for 1% of the world's webbing, and that Wenzhou lighters once accounted for 70% of the world's market, making it seem that Wenzhou lighters are produced by his family. Yun Chaochao was upset at the mention of Si Nian.
"He said that it was, and their family definitely accounts for less than 1% of the world, and their family makes metal lighters, and the market should be a disposable kind of fast-moving consumer goods, right?" Chao Chang Chang said along Yun Chaochao's words.
Yun Chaochao was very satisfied with Chao's long queue: "Don't worry, even if his family accounts for 100%, it is not my food." β
"Ah...... I ......"
This sudden big turn made the tide Changchang not know whether he should answer "rest assured" or "not assured".
"What are you?" Yun Chaochao said, his tone suddenly changed: "Do you know why I called you?"
"Didn't you call me to talk?"
"No, I'm here to ask the teacher. β
"Then you ask. "Chao Chang put on a posture of "as long as you hit my right cheek, I'll turn my left cheek over and let you hit it".
"What's the matter with you and Sibylle?"
"Who?" the tide grows and is unknown.
βBerwick Sibylle.β Yun Chaochao said his full name.
"I'm not impressed. Chao Chang thought about it for a long time and didn't think about it.
"Are you going to break Miss Sibylle's heart?"
Yun Chaochao was inexplicably a little happy, and couldn't say why, but couldn't help but want to laugh twice, "As soon as she heard that I was YC International, she asked me if I knew you." β
"YC International is all Chinese students, where did Sibylle come from?"
"Miss Sibylle is not from our school, you met at the United Nations Youth Congress, you speak on behalf of the youth of the Asia-Pacific region, she represents the European region, didn't you still leave contact information?"
"There were so many people in that meeting, I don't remember how many contact details I left. β
"Miss Ren also said that your phone can't get through, and all social media can't be contacted, but people are in a hurry. Yun Chaochao teased.
"No, why are you still talking about this?"
"No, as soon as the young lady saw me, she asked me if I knew that there was a high school in China called YC International. β
"And then?"
Then I said that I was YC, and the young lady kept grabbing me and asking as if she had seen a lover from her previous life. β
"Didn't you go to answer the lawsuit, why did you get involved with the young lady?" Chao Changchang was a little curious.
"Probably you have a relationship with webbing? The largest webbing company in the European Union is Sibylle's family, how about it, do you want to give her your phone? β
"I don't even remember people's names, what are you contacting?"
"Then you don't remember Yun Chaochao before!" a certain girl did not relent.
"I remember! I still have the couplet you wrote to me. β
"I believe that you have ghosts. The girl was obviously not happy.
"Really. In addition to my father, my mother, Ge's mother, and Brother Shuo, you are the only one who has my phone, a total of five people, and you are the only peer. β
Yun Chaochao sighed and expressed his disbelief: "Do you want me to go and talk to Si Nian, you didn't treat him as a person?"
"Si Nian will have my phone number, isn't it because you forced me to contact him?" Chao Chang was ready to answer this question.
"Hahaha, I'm in a better mood now. I'll hang up the phone for breakfast, and you can get ready for dinner. β
"Well, I'll try making instant noodles in seven steps for my mom and dad. β
"Hahaha, are you going to make your culinary debut? β
After hanging up the phone, Chao Changchang suddenly wanted to sing.
Change the lyrics a little and sing them gently.
[Eat breakfast with you with my dinner].
