Yan Feifan had originally planned to use his rare Sunday off to learn how to drive.

Unfortunately, Yu Suye, who had volunteered to be his instructor, had to spend the weekend showing her mother around Binhai.

Meanwhile, Yan Ziruo, who had readily agreed to help Xia Yan, contacted Mr. Jiang, the lawyer contracted by the plastic surgery center, first thing in the morning.

Mr. Jiang enthusiastically recommended a colleague from his firm who specialized in divorce cases.

So, Yan Ziruo rushed off with Xia Yan to meet this divorce lawyer.

Yan Feifan also did his part to help with the infuriating matter Xia Yan had described.

He contacted Zheng Libin from the public security sub-bureau.

Mr. Zheng stated that if Xia Yan’s account was true, then the man had committed bigamy.

He said he would have his colleagues at the Dacheng Street Police Station follow up on the matter.

His driving lessons interrupted, Yan Feifan stayed home and studied driving theory and traffic laws. After simulating the act of driving in his mind, he turned to his medical textbooks…

At nearly eleven in the morning, Yan Feifan received a call from Song Yi.

“Feifan, regarding the startup project you proposed the night before last, I consulted my brother and several successful CEOs.”

“They all said it’s very feasible. The integrated patient management system for hospitals, in particular, has vast potential.”

Yan Feifan was a little confused. “Song Yi, didn’t you say that promoting the integrated system would be very difficult?”

“It’s precisely because it’s difficult to promote that it has so much potential.”

Song Yi said over the phone with a touch of emotion, “I guess this is the difference between how we think and how exceptional people think.”

“We see the difficulty, but they see the potential.”

“They all pointed out one thing: intelligent, integrated patient management is the way of the future.”

“As long as we can create an excellent integrated management solution tailored to the specific needs of hospitals and stick with it, we’ll see explosive growth in the future.”

Song Yi elaborated, “Feifan, my idea is to use the IV drip controller as our entry point. Through this product, we’ll establish close relationships with various hospitals.”

“At the same time, we’ll use the profits from the IV drip controller to support the research, development, and promotion of the integrated patient management system.”

“Feifan, what do you think?”

Yan Feifan admitted frankly, “Song Yi, I don’t understand the business side of things, but it sounds quite feasible to me.”

“You’re the expert in this area. You can make the final decision.”

Song Yi’s clear voice came through the phone. “Feifan, thank you for your trust. I’ll give it my all.”

“One more thing…”

Song Yi added a warning, “The IV drip controller isn’t technically difficult to make. Even if we secure patents for the technology and design, it will be hard to stop others from copying it.”

“So, right from the start, we need to launch a mature product that is feature-complete and cleverly designed.”

“At the same time, we need to carry out a large-scale promotional campaign to capture the market and maximize our first-mover and brand advantages.”

“This requires two things: first, secrecy, and second, capital investment.”

Yan Feifan mulled it over. “Secrecy shouldn’t be a big problem. Me, my sister, and Su Ye should all be able to keep this business secret.”

“But as for the capital investment… Song Yi, do you have a budget in mind?”

Song Yi’s voice came back immediately. “I haven’t drawn up a detailed budget yet, just a rough estimate.”

“To achieve the nationwide market penetration I’m envisioning, the initial investment will be at least fifty to sixty million.”

“That much?” Yan Feifan was shocked.

Song Yi explained, “And that fifty to sixty million is just our actual capital. Add in leveraged funds like bank loans, and the total investment could be two or three hundred million.”

“An investment of two or three hundred million might seem like a lot.”

“But if you consider product R&D, factory leasing, production and inventory, and a nationwide promotional campaign all at once, it might not even be enough.”

Yan Feifan grimaced and suggested, “Can’t we start with a small factory and grow slowly, from small to large?”

“If we invest so much all at once and bite off more than we can chew, the debt could crush us.”

Song Yi replied with great confidence, “Feifan, I’m very confident in the project you proposed.”

“Besides, starting small isn’t worth my time.”

‘Alright, she was a woman used to dealing with big money.’

Yan Feifan steeled himself, gritted his teeth, and said, “Song Yi, I’m just a poor doctor. This six million is a huge sum I only earned by a stroke of once-in-a-lifetime luck.”

“I can invest all six million.”

“But we have to be clear…”

Yan Feifan stressed heavily, “If we really lose money, the most I can lose is this entire six million. I won’t be responsible for any additional debt.”

Song Yi’s reassuring voice came from the phone. “Don’t worry. We’ll register the company as a limited liability company. In the worst-case scenario, the company goes bankrupt, and we lose all the money we invested. We won’t have to bear joint liability.”

After a pause, Song Yi’s voice came through the phone again.

“Feifan, with my own money plus the support my brother is providing, I can come up with fifteen million at most right now.”

“Add your six million…”

“Hey, how much can Yu Suye contribute?”

Yan Feifan did a rough calculation. “Four million at most.”

“Then our total initial investment is twenty-five million.”

Song Yi analyzed over the call, “That should be enough to launch the project, cover the initial product R&D, lease a factory, contact suppliers for parts, and do a small batch of assembly and production.”

“But it’s definitely not enough for mass inventory and a nationwide promotional campaign.”

“Feifan, we need to bring in investors…”

Yan Feifan instinctively demurred, “Song Yi, I’m just a doctor. I only know how to treat patients and perform surgery.”

“When it comes to raising funds and doing business, those big-shot CEOs won’t trust me.”

“Raising funds will have to be up to you.”

Song Yi’s voice immediately followed. “We don’t need to rush to find investors. It will be easier to attract them once we have some achievements to show for ourselves.”

“Feifan, just keep it in mind. You never know when you might get lucky.”

“Hey, let’s get together tonight. We need to hash some things out, and we need to sign the agreements that have to be signed…”

At 4:40 in the afternoon, Yan Feifan received a call from Zheng Libin.

“Two things. My colleagues at the Dacheng Street Police Station told me that through their inquiries, they’ve confirmed that what Xia Yan said is true.”

“They’ve already contacted Xia Yan. Once she files a formal report, they will open a case.”

“There’s another thing. Today, two girls came to the Dacheng Street Police Station to accuse Cheng Lezhi and his group of rape.”

“Rape?” Yan Feifan confirmed.

“Yes, rape!”

Zheng Libin continued over the phone, “These two girls came to the station to report it, and they brought a video as solid evidence.”

“The video was likely filmed by Cheng Lezhi and his scumbag friends. It shows them at some residence, secretly drugging the girls’ drinks.”

“After that, they did as they pleased.”

“The strange thing is, both girls said the video was sent to them from an unknown email address.”

“The email also told them to come to the Dacheng Street Police Station to file a report…”

“Mr. Yan…”

Zheng Libin’s voice came over the phone, half-serious and half-joking. “You wouldn’t happen to be an expert hacker, would you?”

“Or perhaps you have an expert hacker among your friends?”
