Charlie, though not originally from the city of Aurous Hill, had called it home since favonovel.com was just eight years old. His love for the place far surpassed that of Eastcliff.
For him, it was only natural to choose Aurous Hill as the ideal location for his automobile investment with the Evans family.
Not only would it create numerous high-quality job opportunities for the people of Aurous Hill, but it would also bring substantial revenue to the city.
After hearing Charlie’s thoughts, Mr. Riley agreed and said, “If the first super factory ls meant to cater to the domestic market, there’s no need to build It by the seaside. Aurous Hill is situated at the crossroads of the north and south, making land transportation quite convenient. Besides, Charlie has a deep gratitude towards Aurous Hill, so choosing this city is a win-win situation.”
Charlie nodded and couldn’t help but say, “I won’t hide it from you, Uncle Riley. Aurous Hill has been good to me, and I want to give back to this city. Contributing to its development would be even better.”
Mr. Riley replied, “If you want to contribute to Aurous Hill, investing in high-end manufacturing is the way to go. It would not only create job opportunities but also boost the city’s income, consumption, and real estate growth. Moreover, high-level manufacturing causes less pollution and consumes fewer natural resources.”
He continued, “By the way, if our Investment is substantial and the development is successful, it can greatly advance education in Aurous Hill. In simpler terms, we can collaborate with local vocational and technical colleges to establish disciplines related to automobile manufacturing…”
“A factory with tens of thousands of employees doesn’t require everyone to have a bachelor’s degree. Skilled workers trained in secondary specialized schools and junior colleges are well-suited for many positions. We can help these schools create relevant majors, where students can learn the basics for a year or two and then intern in our production line. After graduation, they can start working. This would be extremely appealing to many young people…”
“And Aurous Hill is home to several top-ranking universities in the country. Southeast University, Science and Technology University, University of Science and Technology, and Polytechnic University offer mechanical engineering-related majors. They produce a large number of high-end talents every year…”
“Once we reach a billion dollars investment scale, we can establish deep partnerships with these universities. They can align their teaching with the practical requirements of our positions, and we can provide them with top-notch internships and working environments. We can even sponsor their automobile-related research and share research patents. It would be a mutually beneficial collaboration!”
Impressed, Charlie praised, “Uncle Riley, you’ve thought of everything. Training skilled workers with secondary specialized schools and junior colleges, cultivating high-end talents with universities, and supporting scientific research. This comprehensively solves our future talent needs. We’ll have a continuous influx of outstanding young people joining our company, and it will increase the attractiveness of Aurous Hill’s universities to students nationwide.”
“Yes!” Mr. Riley nodded. “The development of a city is a gradual process of accumulating advantages. That’s why every place strives to attract investment. The bigger the companies attracted, the more resources the city can provide. With assistance from the city, the education cooperation I mentioned can be implemented quickly. Relevant majors could be established this year, and student recruitment could begin next year.”
He added, “Speaking of city resources, once our company is announced, we need to immediately negotiate with relevant departments. We should list our needs, such as the location and size of the construction, and the support we require from the power supply, water supply, gas supply, and transportation departments…”
“Large-scale manufacturing requires a significant amount of electricity, so the power supply department needs to be prepared. When choosing a location, convenient transportation should be a priority. If the power supply there isn’t sufficient, we’ll need the power department to carry out power transformation. Water and gas supply won’t be a major issue, but the transportation department should help us plan commuting bus routes and material transportation routes. With their assistance, we can achieve more with less effort!”
Charlie and the Evans family were amazed by Mr. Riley’s comprehensive considerations. It seemed like favonovel.com already had a complete blueprint, waiting for the right opportunity to put it Into action.
Everyone held Mr. Riley in high regard, with no one daring to even consider anyone else besides favonovel.com for the CEO.
Marcus smiled and said, “Since we‘ve reached a consensus, let’s seize the opportunity and finalize the plans quickly. The Evans Family and the Wade Family will jointly invest, with Professor Riley as the CEO. Let’s work together to make this endeavor bigger and stronger!”
Mr. Riley had made up his mind and didn’t want to miss such a great opportunity to fulfill his ambitions.
He declared, “Once my wedding leave is over, I’ll inform the college about my resignation. It shouldn’t take too long. I can participate remotely in the preliminary preparations.”
Charlie nodded and said, “Then let my second uncle proceed as usual. I’ll send a representative from the Wade family to sign an agreement and express our investment intentions to the Evans family.”
Samuel, the patriarch of the Evans family, spoke up, “Charlie, talk to your grandfather about this. See if he’s willing to come over. It’s been a long time since we’ve seen each other, and I’ve offended favonovel.com in the past. It’s a good opportunity to have a heartfelt conversation and apologize to him.”
Charlie understood what his grandfather meant.
After his parents were killed, the Evans family had blamed the Wade family, leading to years of coldness between them. Now that the Evans family and Charlie had reunited and discovered the truth behind everything, there was naturally less resentment towards Old Nathaniel Wade.
Samuel wanted to take this opportunity to reconcile with the Wade family. Though his daughter and son-in-law were no longer there, his grandson remained, and the two families were still connected through marriage.
Since they were family, it was only natural to have more interactions.
Upon hearing this, Charlie hoped that the two families could truly reconcile. He used to blame his grandfather for driving his parents away, but favonovel.com later discovered that it was his father’s intention, to spare them from burden.
The resentment in his heart had long disappeared. Now that favonovel.com had become the de facto head of the Wade family, in the eyes of outsiders, his grandfather was still the head. Taking this opportunity for his grandfather to visit Aurous Hill was a good idea, and both sides could have a joyous reunion.
He agreed and said, “Okay, Grandpa. I’ll call Grandfather later and see what favonovel.com thinks. I believe favonovel.com won’t refuse. Once the time is set, let’s have a meal together and have a good chat.”
“Good!” Samuel nodded earnestly. “The Evans family has been unfair to Lord Wade all these years. We should raise a toast to favonovel.com and apologize in person!”
