Chapter 107: An Instant Sensation!

“Haha.”
Upon hearing this, An Hailong burst into laughter, looking at Ye Wushang with mockery. “This is your proposed plan?”
“Are you trying to make me die of laughter?”
“With this pathetic proposal, let alone making the noodle shop bigger and stronger, I’m afraid it won’t even last a few days before shutting down.”
An Qingguo shook his head and said, “Although Lanlan only invested half a million, it’s not much, but it still shows us your abilities.”
“If you can’t even handle a noodle shop, how can we expect you to do well in the restaurant business, let alone mention the An Group?”
“Lanlan, it seems you’ve already lost.”
“At this point, do you have anything left to say?”
An Lan fell silent.
Facts spoke louder than words. This plan was hastily put together, riddled with holes, and offered nothing of value.
If Ye Wushang had made it, she would have accepted it.
But it was actually made by Master Rabbit, who clearly hadn’t taken it seriously at all.
And now, she had even wagered her position as president.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Ye.”
Master Rabbit hung his head in shame and apologized, “This is how I run a company.”
“And I don’t know much about the restaurant industry. Time was tight, so I couldn’t prepare a reasonable plan…”
“It’s all right, you’ve worked hard,” Ye Wushang said, waving his hand, thoughtful.
To be honest, this proposal was certainly lacking, but it wasn’t entirely without merit. With a bit of refinement, he thought it could become a decent plan.
After a brief moment of contemplation, an idea had already formed in his mind.
“I have nothing more to say.”
“I’m willing to resign as president,” An Lan sighed and spoke softly.
An Qingguo smiled and looked at Master An, asking, “Dad, what do you think?”
“Facts speak for themselves. Since Mr. Ye’s proposal fails to meet market prospects…”
“Let’s proceed as discussed earlier.”
Master An’s face was filled with disappointment as well.
To be honest, he’d originally put great faith in Ye Wushang.
Judging by his past performance, he shouldn’t have fallen so short this time.
But now the facts were right before his eyes, and there was nothing he could do.
“Very well.”
An Qingguo laughed, took a deep breath, and announced loudly, “Then I hereby declare that An Hailong will succeed An Lan as the new—”
“Hold on, Mr. An.”
Before he could finish, Ye Wushang suddenly interrupted, his tone calm. “What I just read out was indeed my plan for the noodle shop’s future.”
“But that was only a draft. The real essence of the plan I haven’t shared yet—it’s all in my head.”
“I’d like to correct my proposal. Is there any objection?”
An Qingguo frowned and sneered, “Ye Wushang, do you think this is child’s play? You’re not satisfied and want to revise it again?”
“Even if you revise it, what’s the use? Don’t you know what you’re capable of?”
An Hailong snorted in disdain, “Stop with your nonsense. The matter is settled. Don’t bother with these pointless games…”
“Are you afraid my corrected plan might actually pass the big data test?”
Ye Wushang retorted.
An Hailong sneered, “Afraid of you? What a joke…”
“Ye Wushang, do you really want to revise your plan?”
At this moment, An Qingguo stopped his son, looking at Ye Wushang with great interest.
Ye Wushang glanced at the dejected An Lan and nodded. “Yes, I want to revise it. Is that acceptable?”
“It’s not a big problem, but I have one condition,” An Qingguo smirked, pointing at An Lan. “If your revised proposal still fails the big data evaluation—”

“Not only will Lanlan resign as president, but she’ll also lose her place in the restaurant business.”
“From now on, she’ll quietly stay at home, focusing on being the family’s young lady. She won’t need to get involved in company affairs anymore.”
“What?!”
An Lan’s eyes widened. “Uncle, isn’t that going too far?”
“Is it?”
“It was Ye Wushang who requested a revision. I’m giving him a chance. At worst, he can just give up.”
“You—!”
“Lanlan, trust me, I can do it.”
Ye Wushang stopped An Lan, speaking earnestly. “Although Master Rabbit’s plan had flaws, it’s worth reconsidering.”
“I believe that after my corrections, the plan may not be perfect, but it will at least pass the big data test.”
“Besides, this presentation isn’t just to solidify your position in the An family. I also truly want to build a business for my sister.”
“It’s all right to accept. I won’t lose anyway.”
Looking at his determined expression, An Lan hesitated to speak.
If she lost her post, it wouldn’t matter much whether she had the restaurant business or not.
Given her uncle’s ways, he’d make things difficult for her in the future regardless.
But her uncle pressed hard, while her grandfather remained unmoved, offering no help.
She knew all she could do now was put her hope in Ye Wushang.
“Fine, I accept.”
With that, An Lan staked everything. “If Wushang’s revised plan still fails, I will not only resign as president but will sever all ties with the group and never meddle in its affairs again.”
“Good, that’s exactly what I wanted to hear!”
An Qingguo could hardly contain his joy.
An Hailong was even more delighted. Truly, the older the ginger, the spicier it is.
When it comes to scheming, he was no match for his father.
With just a few words, they sidelined An Lan, wiping away all her past contributions to the family.
Though Ye Wushang was an excellent doctor,
medical skill did not equate to ability. Business operations required rich experience and exceptional strategy.
How could a man thrown out by his wife possibly succeed in this?
For such a plan, not just him—even his father or himself would find it hard to pass!
“Please, Mr. Ye.”
An Qingguo gestured invitingly.
An Hailong sat upright, slurping his noodles without any pleasure.
The other An family elites and the onlookers all glanced over, their faces full of doubt.
“This Ye Wushang is way too stubborn. Why bother with something impossible?”
“Exactly. He may not lose much, but poor An Lan—she’ll lose her presidency and the restaurant business as well.”
“She’s done so much for the An family, only for it all to be ruined by him. I can’t help but feel sorry for her.”
“Trying to revise the plan and pass the big data test? Ridiculous!”
The crowd chattered incessantly, their words filled with contempt and ridicule for Ye Wushang.
To An Lan, these remarks were even more piercing.
Truth be told, she herself wasn’t confident.
She was just grasping at straws.
If it worked, so be it.
If not, she would resign herself to fate.
“If I input my plan, the system will evaluate it and give a score, correct?”
Standing before the expert, Ye Wushang inquired.
The expert nodded and explained, “Yes. Once you enter your plan into the database, it will be screened by big data, which evaluates its market feasibility and gives a score.”
“Then please, let me operate it myself.”

The expert was taken aback.
He glanced at An Qingguo, who nodded and smiled. “Let him do it. Even if he loses, let it be convincing.”
“These are real-time data, with no manipulation. Whether the plan works depends on its quality.”
“We don’t engage in any underhanded tactics.”
After that,
the expert stood up, and Ye Wushang took his seat.
Facing the screen, with Master Rabbit’s plan summary still displayed, he began deleting parts and then entered:
“The plan is still based on Master Rabbit’s, but I am revising several key points.”
“First, the core of the noodle shop is not to open franchises, but to act as a supplier—providing ingredients, preparing sauce packs, and distributing them nationwide.”
“This approach saves on rental and utilities for new shops, and allows for rapid distribution across the country.”
“Therefore, our goal isn’t just Jinghan, or the provincial capital, nor even the whole country—it’s the world!”
Click!
With that, Ye Wushang pressed the Enter key.
The data, which had been stuck at 60 points, suddenly shot up like a rocket.
After a wild jump, it reached a score of 90!
“What’s going on?”
“It went from sixty to ninety?”
“No franchises, but acting as a supplier—that’s clever!”
“This cuts all sorts of costs, letting products flow freely. Not bad at all!”
“I never thought he had such business acumen. There’s something to him after all.”
The An family elders and the crowd buzzed with excitement.
Their eyes on Ye Wushang had changed.
Earlier, they saw him as an empty talker, utterly clueless.
But now, he not only understood, but understood deeply.
“Second.”
“For marketing, I won’t use TV commercials or newspaper ads.”
“To really build fame, I’d rather hold a nationwide ingredient competition, involving everyone.”
“Isn’t word of mouth even better?”
“At that point, we’ll live-stream the event across all platforms, even connecting globally. Blowing up the market will be just a matter of time.”
Click!
He pressed Enter again!
This time, the score jumped from 40 to 95!
The room fell absolutely silent—you could hear a pin drop.
“Finally.”
“To make the noodle shop’s ingredients enduring and well-known.”
“I plan to have my sister—the owner of the noodle shop herself—be the brand ambassador.”
“I believe with her abilities, she’ll win the competition. Riding that wave, she’ll endorse the brand, sure to trigger a chain reaction.”
“By then, money, fame, status, and everything connected will all rise together!”
Click!
The Enter key fell.
The third score shot up from 20 to a perfect 100!
With all three scores combined, the final evaluation read: A perfect plan, sure to become a sensation!
