Guo Shugui spoke quietly while Li Zhenhua listened quietly.
Actually, the photographer’s requirements were not that high to Li Zhenhua.
After all, this was a job for a knife-making process. He wasn’t going to use it for a movie. If the requirements were lower, the phone would be perfectly adequate.
“Let me tell you something, Hua Zi. I have seven lens for Leica alone. I have even more for the other brands.
I have the oldest seagull camera at home. It’s an antique from the last century.”
When Li Zhenhua saw Guo Shugui, he talked non-stop about his equipment.
“It seems that this Young Master Guo really likes to play with photography. He actually has so much equipment.”
He had a seagull! Ancestor of ancestors! What a fanatic.
It’s a good thing his family is rich. Otherwise, these equipment would have emptied his bank long ago.’
Li Zhenhua nodded in satisfaction at Guo Shugui’s words.
“Guoba, actually, I don’t need much professional photography at all.
As long as we can film the entire process clearly.”
After hearing what Li Zhenhua said, Guo Shugui also understood that what he wanted to do was very simple.
“Alright, I’ll make the decision myself. I’ll also make the decision on the equipment to use.
So when do we start work? I can hardly wait.”
Guo Shugui had always been very interested in forging.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have come to Li Zhenhua’s place so early in the morning to watch.
When Li Zhenhua heard Guo Shugui ask about this, he immediately thought that he had not thought about it.
This was because when he was making the sickle yesterday, his proficiency in Ingenuity had increased by one.
He wanted to first raise his Ingenuity level to the microscopic level before forging this knife to participate in the preliminaries.
Li Zhenhua said to Guo Shugui immediately:
“Guoba, I’m not ready now. There’s still half a month before the deadline.
My idea is to let me improve my technique a little before I build this knife.”
Guo Shugui replied excitedly to Li Zhenhua.
“That’s great, Hua Zi. I’m interested in smithing.”
Why don’t I come and be your assistant for a while? As far as I know, its too much work for one person to forge alone.”
Liu Xiaodong, who was listening to the two of them discuss, did not plan for him at all.
“Hey, Brother Guo, you’re not loyal. How can you snatch my job?”
This sledgehammer is my job!”
The two of them, who were discussing the forging competition, came back to their senses.
It turned out that there was someone else in this place who was forgotten.
“Fatty, there’s still another matter at your company. How can you stay here all day?”
Li Zhenhua, who was out of Guo Shugui’s sight, quickly winked at the fatty.
Liu Xiaodong saw Li Zhenhua winking at him and immediately understood why Li Zhenhua said that.
In a place where only Li Zhenhua could see, he nodded imperceptibly at him.
“Aiya, you don’t know this. Young Master Guo is the son of a famous real estate developer in the country.
‘I have orders from my company here as soon as I have him on my good side.’
As long as there are orders, there is money. Isn’t that more important than anything else?”
Liu Xiaodong told Guo Shugui his purpose for approaching him.
He said it so openly.
Guo Shugui was not a fool, but he really did not expect this fatty to be so open and honest as to say this.
‘That’s how it feels. Not thinking of yourself as someone you can use.’
Instead, he did not hide it at all. This feeling was very rare for Guo Shugui.
Most of the friends he had made before were as wealthy as his family.
But there was always this barrier between them.
Now he felt something he’d never felt before.
“I say, Fatty, you really don’t go behind people’s backs! You suck up to me, do you hear me?”
Guo Shugui also enjoyed this kind of banter between friends.
However, he did not know that he had already been tricked by Li Zhenhua and the honest fat man in front of him.
Then he heard Li Zhenhua say:
“Then let’s get familiar with each other for a few days. When I’m ready, we’ll get to work.”
Guo Shugui and Liu Xiaodong nodded in unison. Li Zhenhua really had to take the lead in this matter.
“You’re the boss. I’ll listen to you.”
The two of them looked at each other and spoke in unison.
‘Then let’s get on with it in a minute!’
As the three of them talked, time passed slowly and the sun rose in the sky.
The sky was bright and the sun shone on the three young men.
Li Zhenhua began to lead the two of them around the courtyard.
To the three of them, what Li Zhenhua was doing now was his capital.
However, to the other two, this could only be considered a hobby and a pastime.
Guo Shugui was fine. He was from the head office. Even if he did not work for a month, it would not affect him much.
However, Liu Xiaodong was not. He was currently in charge of a business company.
If he wasn’t in the office for a day, that might cause things to stagnate, so the phone hadn’t stopped ringing since dawn.
The stove was built. The blower blew a lot of air into the stove. The iron turned red as the flames burned.
Guo Shugui did not move. He just watched from the side and familiarized himself with the process.
Even if he was involved now, he would do this. His job was to learn.
Iron burned in the stove. Li Zhenhua waited.
At this moment, even though Li Zhenhua was looking at the iron, he was thinking about something else.
The Goldfinger of Ingenuity was only at level 2 now. He was still 998 away from leveling up.
If this was an upgrade, he would have to make 998 finished products. Then, he had to think about what was so small and easy to make that it could be mass produced without causing a backlog.
He went through them one by one in his mind, but he could not think of anything with such attributes.
Guo Shugui did not notice anything wrong at first, but when he looked into the furnace, the iron was already red hot. He asked Li Zhenhua,
However, Li Zhenhua did not seem to hear him. Only then did he realize that Li Zhenhua was thinking about something.
“Hua Zi, Hua Zi?” Guo Shugui called out twice before Li Zhenhua reacted.
Li Zhenhua turned to look at Guo Shugui.
“What are you thinking? You’re so deep in thought you didn’t hear me!”
Li Zhenhua hadn’t thought of a good product, but Guo Shugui asked.
“Here’s the thing. If I want to practice, I’m bound to produce a lot. But what should I do with this forged thing?
We can’t just leave it there, either. That’s why I’m thinking we should build something so it doesn’t cause a backlog.”
Guo Shugui burst into laughter.
