After leaving the airport, Lin Chen and the others arrived at their hotel.
Lin Chen wasn't tired, but Xu Mengyao and Lin Xiaoqian were exhausted. They needed to rest so they could enjoy sightseeing and taking photos the next day.
Just after checking in, Lin Chen received a call from Prince Hayel.
The prince asked if the payment for the drones had arrived.
Lin Chen checked his bank account and confirmed that nearly 2.9 billion yuan had been transferred. Together with the money he already had, his balance was now close to 5 billion yuan. Even for someone like him, seeing such a huge amount was exciting.
Prince Hayel then explained that his country was facing a crisis and asked how quickly the 50,000 drones could be delivered.
Lin Chen originally estimated 15 days, but the prince wanted them even sooner and offered an additional 20 million US dollars for every day the delivery could be accelerated.
Surprised by the generous offer, Lin Chen went to ask Xu Mengyao, who managed the production.
She explained that:
The normal fastest schedule was 15 days. If workers worked three extra hours every day, production could be sped up, but employees would need higher pay.
Lin Chen decided to offer a bonus.
He announced that for every day the delivery was completed ahead of the 15-day schedule, the company would pay a total bonus of 10 million yuan, which would be shared among all the workers.
Xu Mengyao immediately informed the factory.
The employees became highly motivated. They didn't mind working overtime as long as they were properly rewarded.
With the bonus in place, Xu Mengyao estimated the drones could be finished in 10 to 11 days.
Lin Chen informed Prince Hayel, who said he would prepare transport aircraft to pick up the drones as soon as they were ready.
Xu Mengyao worried that selling so many drones to the prince's country might cause problems.
Lin Chen reassured her, saying they were only selling civilian drones. If the buyer later modified them for military use, that would be their own responsibility.
Later, a local photographer named Chen Lei arrived to discuss the upcoming photo shoot.
After talking with Lin Chen, Chen Lei was impressed by Lin Chen's expert knowledge of photography and promised to do his best during the next few days.
Meanwhile, Pan Jia learned that Xingmeng Technology, Xu Group's drone company, had unexpectedly sped up production despite recently losing a major order.
Confused, she contacted Song Shikang to ask whether the Song family was secretly helping Xingmeng Technology.
Afterward, she met with Zheng Qingshan and suggested launching new attacks against Xingmeng Technology, including spreading negative rumors, poaching employees, and persuading investors to abandon the company.
