The bride-to-be who is about to marry Cao Dongxu is from a nearby city and is currently working and developing in the provincial capital.
A typical example of a well-matched couple. Most of the people in the other person's family work in the electrical system, and I also work in the corresponding unit.
Because of the existence of Cao Haiyang, his uncle, Cao Dongxu still has an advantage in the family world. Although the old man has retired for many years, he was still in charge of a division. The other party respected the old man's age and a large family came to Songjiang.
However, the distance of more than a hundred kilometers, coming from nearby cities and provincial capitals, there is no distance pressure. The Cao family has also prepared early. Tiantianju is closed, otherwise it would be an excellent choice.
The area around the ski resort is a good place in winter, but a little less interesting in summer. There are some resorts near the lake, which are not your own place, and there is no need to drive dozens of minutes to get there.
Yan Bo helped find a restaurant. The boss personally watched the chef and prepared the ingredients early in the morning, only to prepare a sumptuous meal at noon.
The restaurant is not big, with a very large private room. One table can easily accommodate more than twenty people, and there is still room for another table of more than ten people, which is more suitable for such a large number of guests. The environment is also good, and the entire restaurant is not big or ostentatious. As long as the in-laws don't feel neglected, they won't feel the same after the meal is served.
Yan Bo is thinner and darker. If you put this guy with a group of certain gentlemen, he doesn't need to change his attire. He is the same type of person.
Cao Haiyang has been talking about his incessant smoking for more than a year or two. There is no way. The physical examinations twice a year, Yan Bo and others on the front line have the most comprehensive examination items, and almost all can be screened. All inspection items must be reviewed.
After every check-up, Yan Bo's physical condition was all above excellent. He also hired experts and experienced Chinese medicine practitioners to consult him individually. The result was unbelievable to everyone. It was completely unimaginable that such an indiscriminate person could People who work day and night will be healthy in all physical indicators and work very intensively. If they smoke continuously, two packs a day is a minimum and three packs is the norm. If they stay up all night and stay up all night, those three packs are completely unstoppable.
A completely unhealthy lifestyle and resting habit, a completely self-destructive smoking habit, yet there are no physical problems? Last year, the superiors specially ordered Yan Bo to go to Yanjing for a comprehensive physical examination and let the best experts in the country take a look at him.
Such a backbone of the business is almost non-stop all year round, and it is also the main front-line staff of the city's Yifang Ping An. Not to mention Songjiang, many people above have heard the name of Yan Bo, saying that this guy can work for seven days in a row for a case. He worked without sleep for seven nights; he said that when he was investigating a case, he traveled to 36 cities across the country and interviewed more than 70 witnesses in three months...
The key to such a business backbone is that he does not seek fame rather than profit. Whenever he is asked to conduct an interview or to promote his reputation, he refuses unswervingly: "I am a worker, and you all know me, so what else can you do?" I don’t need to do work, TV, newspapers and various interviews.”
Anyone who sees him will always tell him the same words. Cao Haiyang knows him well enough, and it is the same. Every time he sees him, he will tell him to pay attention to his health.
Only Wei Tao, when we met, didn't care about that matter at all: "I asked Lu Jiang to put some cigarettes in the car, and you can go get them when the time comes."
Yan Bo raised his eyebrows, took out the cigarette with a smile, and handed it to Wei Tao. Then he turned to Cao Haiyang and said, "Boss, I'm leaving first. There is news tonight, and I have to go to control."
Cao Haiyang was not polite to him and nodded.
Cao Dongxu's fiancée is called Qiao Shu, and her name is a bit like taking advantage. Fortunately, she is a girl, so there is nothing to take advantage of.
The Qiao family attaches great importance to this meeting. All important relatives in the family are present. Wei Tao's attendance is equivalent to strengthening the Cao family's appearance. They do not want the east wind to overwhelm the west wind. Whose family has a few For a relative with good grades, the more attendance at such a moment, the more respect he will give to the other person.
Wei Tao did not sit at the senior table, but became the hosts of the junior table with Cao Xiyu. When he got up and was busy, he didn't look like a big boss at all. The Qiao family also saw his driver and bodyguard outside. , helping with things outside, but in the box, Mr. Wei always maintained a very warm hospitality attitude.
In fact, there is nothing to say here, just listen to the conversation at the table. Cao Dongxu and Qiao Shu have no problems, and naturally there will be no problems with their families. They are warm and close, from strangers to familiars, with one meal. for more than two hours.
Arrange check-in at the best hotel in the evening, and the next morning's itinerary is to visit Songjiang Lake.
There is no need for others to do these things. Lu Jiang has arranged everything. There is no need for the Qiao family to drive there tomorrow. The two Coasters from Anshun Group are ready. From the time they leave the hotel until they return from the trip, no one needs to worry about everything. Lu Jiang Jiang Fu retrieved Er Fu, and Fu Xin Fu Tiesheng, the second general Heng Ha, started preparations overnight. They were four generations old and could not be anything else. The two of them were just responsible for making the guests feel at home, paying attention to every detail. Showing how much the host values the guests, even the drinks and food prepared in the car were specially seen by Fu Xin and delivered to the car overnight. Two tour guides were also hired to make the dozens of minutes' journey enjoyable. , Songjiang welcomes you with enthusiasm.
Cao Xiyu followed her family back to her grandfather's house.
"Where's Wei Tao?"
The old man got out of the car and asked quickly when he didn't see Wei Tao in the crowd.
There is one person in charge of a thousand families, but in addition to the person in charge, there must also be an implementer who can make everyone feel at ease. Wei Tao is the junior. When there is something in the family and someone needs help, he is there and he knows who is under his control. People who do things seriously, the old man can rest assured.
"He's busy, so he put off all the acquisition talks in the afternoon. I'll meet him in the evening." If it were just his grandparents, Cao Xiyu wouldn't talk like this and just say he's busy. But in this house, there are more than ten or twenty relatives of uncles, aunts and uncles. No. If you say something more and be more straightforward, some things can be avoided with such subtle understanding.
"Boss, no matter how much money you spend, give it to Wei Tao and our family. We should be more clear about small things."
This way you won't be confused about important matters.
The old man pointed to his eldest son, and the other party nodded in agreement. The family was very satisfied with the marriage, and they were a good match. There was nothing to choose from the other family, and the family members were also good. The marriage was basically settled in the afternoon.
"By the way, brother, Wei Tao has arranged a car and a boat trip on the river in the evening. It's still early. Let's rest. It's getting dark. You can take my sister-in-law and her family for a round trip." Cao Xiyu took the mobile phone and sent the phone number to Cao Dongxu. , everything has been arranged, all he needs to do is make a call when the time comes, and someone will arrange the rest.
Cao Dongxu has a cheerful personality. When he was in college, he met Wei Tao, who came to school to sell protective measures. He is no longer pretending to be polite now. His sister and husband strongly support him. He just needs to keep his love in mind and wear a flattering smile with peace of mind on his face. He cupped his fist at his sister and said, "Old sister, I've taken it all to heart."
He went aside, took his mobile phone, and sent a message to his girlfriend. Originally, he planned to invite his girlfriend's family out to visit the night view of Songjiang in the evening. Now that someone has arranged the itinerary, he doesn't worry about whether he will not entertain them well.
When family members get together, after talking about serious business, they can't help but talk about home affairs. Wei Tao is indispensable in the conversation, and the "Tianranju" incident that has been a hot topic recently is indispensable.
Cao Xiyu went out of the back corner door and went to her mother-in-law's shop. She picked up a lot of fruits. When she entered, someone took them and prepared them. When they were sitting around in the living room, someone had just asked Cao Haiyang and Zhou Min about 'Natural Residence'. Now Cao Xiyu Coming back meant that the person who could give everyone the final word was here. Her curiosity prompted her to sit down on the armrest of the sofa next to her mother and lean against her mother when she was questioned.
"Xiaoyu, are you really quitting Tianranju?"
Cao Xiyu shrugged: "Well, we'll talk tonight."
The eldest aunt shook her head: "It's a pity. The business there is so good. Last winter our company went to team building, and everyone said that we can't make at least tens of millions a year here."
Cao Xiyu kept a faint smile: "I don't pay attention to the specific amount, but I know that at the end of last year, all the charitable donations and some funding and other things here were deducted from Tianju. It seems that except for employee expenses, In addition, all the losses over the year have been accounted for by the group, and Wei Tao has used all the money earned there for charity."
"ah!"
Everyone thinks this is too unbelievable. In such a profitable business, all the money earned is donated in the end?
"Really?" Aunt Cao Xiyu didn't believe it.
The old man snorted: "There is nothing suspicious about this. Many people told me about this during the group worship last year. Xiaotao is a good boy. He has become rich and has not forgotten his roots. You elders should do well." Xuexue, let me tell you everything. In the past few years, Songjiang alone and Xiaotao’s Anshun Group have made at least 200 million in charity donations. Not to mention the outside world, Jinfeng Security You all say that the company has good resources, there are so many veterans joining, and there are even more powerful special forces. If it were a company that anyone could do well, do you know, and why? I don’t know anything else. He earns at least tens of millions every year and has a lot of honors. Xiaotao never shows off. You don’t know, right? This kid is profound and can take matters into his own hands. If it had been anyone else, he wouldn’t have known how much publicity he would have given himself. Times."
The old man also took this opportunity to put some heavy colors on the "family tradition". In recent years, he has seldom spoken much. Entering the stage of retirement, the children are also well educated. Today, the younger generation is also going to You know, don’t be impetuous just because you have a second uncle (second uncle, second uncle) or a brother-in-law (brother-in-law). What you were like before will be like what you want now. Our family will not help you. Anyone who has any inappropriate thoughts will be wiped out by me.
Next, everyone asked Cao Xiyu about the donation. There was nothing to say. Wei Tao would not deliberately publicize it, nor would he deliberately conceal it. He had already told Cao Xiyu about the big sums, but she could not remember some details at the moment. , everyone also discussed about Mr. Wei's statement that Songjiang is the 'God of Wealth'.
There are family members in various units. Since Wei Tao became the 'God of Wealth', let alone his age, some people will inevitably come to him for alms on weekdays. As his relative, he has already It was found out that many of the Cao family members were entrusted by their 'superiors' to come to Mr. Wei to make connections, and invited Mr. Wei out in the name of a dinner party to beg for help.
Most people are still smart and do not regard Wei Tao as a scapegoat. They also know that people manage personal relationships in this way and spend the money they are willing to spend to create a human network in a human society. Just remember it, and the future will not be the same again. Things, remember not to push yourself too far.
There are always a lot of greedy people, and if they give it once, twice, three or four times, it will keep rising again and again. At that time, Wei Tao was definitely not used to it. If he occasionally offended such a person, someone would beat him on his behalf. After a few times, everyone also knew, don’t go too far, there is no need to worry about a certain share every year. Mr. Wei has a basic guarantee. As long as you go and treat you to dinner, Mr. Wei will definitely pay for it and will definitely come up with a lot of money. The satisfying share due to greed allows your unit to have some public-to-public charity activities, which are successfully completed.
Some equipment updates, some require donations from the community for gifts.
When we chatted about these things, everyone kept talking to each other. After summarizing, I realized that what the old man said was not an exaggeration at all. This was just some routine operations, a fixed donation to the welfare home every quarter? Donate to the renovation of surrounding primary and secondary school buildings and some tables, chairs and benches every year? Donations for large-scale public welfare activities?
After talking about some major events in Songjiang during the year from my workplace and things around me, I discovered that the love taxi team provides free pick-up and drop-off during the high school and college entrance examinations? Construction of leisure square? Walking for charity and health? International marathon race?
These are actually sponsored by Anshun Group. You can see if you look carefully. Without talking about this matter, most people don't know and don't believe it. With so much money being sponsored, why is there no large-scale advertising?
“We have no shortage of advertising.”
The confident answer from Cao Xiyu also made people with sensitive thinking patterns think of another purpose of Wei Tao's 'God of Wealth' behavior. It is hard to say whether it is questioning other people's charity behavior, but everyone has it in their hearts. There is a steelyard, and it cannot be said that Wei Tao is grabbing some corresponding resources.
Next is everyone's criticism of the residents around 'Tianranju'. This group of ungrateful people will definitely take advantage of it this time. They want to take advantage of Wei Tao, but they never thought that Wei Tao could say no to such a profitable business. don't want.
I dare not think of things, and I never imagined that there is such a businessman. Or should I insist on taking legal action, keep everything, and everyone will fight? Either I give in and promise to give more to the surrounding villagers during the demolition, hello, me, hello everyone...
There are many solutions to the matter, so why did Wei Tao choose such an extreme behavior?
"He's just lazy."
This answer came from Cao Xiyu. There is no need to doubt the authenticity. I can only lament that Wei Tao is rich and willful.
………………
The person who came to Songjiang to discuss the acquisition with Wei Tao was just a spokesperson on the stage. He could also be regarded as a friend of Shao Rui and Wu Xu, and a serious businessman.
But everyone knows that he is just a spokesperson.
A little later, the rightful owner came. Compared to Shao Rui and Wu Xu, who lacked stamina in certain aspects of their family backgrounds, this one was quite capable.
After a brief chat, everything that should be prepared before coming here has been prepared, and there will be no mistakes. In terms of the purchase price, the other party also paid a premium above the fair price. This is not to be generous, but to be a friend like Wei Tao, and to show Cao Haiyang. The latter's job has changed recently. No matter which of the two paths he takes, he is on the rise. No one will be stupid enough to offend him at this time. .
Wei Tao didn't hide it, and spoke directly. It was not a bad situation, but when it came to his own interests, it was understandable that he would turn into a cunning person. Even if the city planning was not here, there would definitely be subsequent troubles. I hope the successor would pay more attention to it. , do not completely intensify the conflict.
"Mr. Wei is kind-hearted and is still speaking for them."
"Put yourself in their shoes. If I were in their position, I wouldn't be able to do better than them."
"But it's not like they have the capital to do whatever they want, is it?"
Wei Tao didn't say anything more. Tiantianju had changed its owner. As his former boss, he had not wronged anyone. He had to bear the price after all. He was afraid that he would be soft-hearted and bear the price for these people in the future. Because I was too lazy to focus my energy on this, I decided to sell 'Tianranju'.
Everything that needs to be planned has been laid out, and some industries that require energy and may become a drag must also be dealt with.
One or two have taken root in the soil, and the rest, as time goes by, I met Professor Jing Fan in the capital, and talked with Zhou Fen about the future share of the 'virtual currency', and I also have something to build on, and now step by step Continue to move forward steadily. After all, Maoya is considered a self-made industry, and it is also an identity for the future self.
The money arrived in two batches. Here, you need to get Tiantianju and then get a mortgage loan to settle the subsequent expenses for Wei Tao. The first payment is only a small proportion.
The other party wanted to promise something, but Wei Tao just smiled lightly and did not make any demands. In a word, everyone is friends, so there is no need to keep everything on paper.
Wei Tao is very aware of a small character flaw of this kind of people. Except for those who are really shameless and greedy, they basically all have one trait - an extreme desire to be recognized, especially the recognition of powerful people.
It just so happens that Wei Tao is among the "powerful people", and his trust and recognition are almost perfect. The other party also said that Mr. Wei is a straightforward person, and we are not unreliable people.
………………
This summer has been extremely hot, with temperatures reaching unbearable levels at the end of July.
As Mao Ya's first round of financing finally settled, many people were curious about Wei Tao's current wealth and how high his position in Forbes could rise. However, they found that Mao Ya seemed to have nothing to do with him.
The largest shareholder is Guan Jinyue, who holds 72% of Maoya shares.
Chen Jun, Qu Xin and others 5%, and the capital attracted is 5%.
Pan Xueyun, Ge Yushuang, Li Hui and others 5%.
Xiao Ma, Rebus and other representatives hold a part of the capital respectively, with a total ratio of 13%.
At this point, Maoya's financing was completed, and there was an additional US$280 million in funds on the books. In addition to continuously upgrading hardware and software equipment and improving the quality of employees in accordance with Wei Tao's long-term plan, there was no place to spend anything else.
With the League of Legends World Championship being held, Creation Camp winning the ratings championship on Mango Channel and countless fans, and the emergence of star power, there is no need to spend money on advertising and advertising in this regard. According to Wei Tao, if media advertising is really necessary, there is no point in casting a wide net. If you want to do it, use one with great effect.
During the entire financing process, including the final celebration banquet, Wei Tao did not appear, and it was impossible for Li Hui and Qu Xin to appear. The two of them are now regarded as the behind-the-scenes shareholders of Maoya. Their identities cannot be exposed, and their shares are not enough for them to own. The consumption here is the style of home consumption, and the money is spent with sincerity, not from the left hand to the right hand.
It wasn't that Wei Tao didn't intentionally attend. It was because he met an old acquaintance in his hometown. We were all of the same age. Now that the other person had quit his job to start a business, the first thing that came to his mind was Mr. Wei, an angel investor who supports the Internet industry.
On the surface, he said that everything is in charge, and he presented himself with an attitude of "I don't want to get involved too much". In fact, his attitude concealed the people he was seeing at the moment. He couldn't let anyone feel that he was taking it seriously, so he had to say To cover up one's own laziness.
Cheng Xiao, who used to work at Renren and knew Wei Tao, was now starting a business. He took a project on an animation generation tool and came to Wei Tao to discuss investment.
A purely technical person started a project and started a company looking for investment. If it weren't for knowing Wei Tao and knowing that Mr. Wei's investment criteria for new projects were very broad, Cheng Xiao really didn't know how to talk to investors, and he didn't even have one. Looking for investment ideas now.
When he came to see Wei Tao, he just laid out all the information about his project in front of Wei Tao.
In the original Xiaonei.com and later Renren.com, Wei Tao never gave up and insisted on believing in it. Even after Wang Xing and others withdrew, he still had confidence in the project and still maintained that everyone's efforts were valuable. Later, he was From the acquisition to the listing of Renren.com, Mr. Wei’s reputation is unquestionable.
Cheng Xiao would not have any intention to talk to any potential investor. He would rather do it slowly on a small scale than really talk about investment.
"Lao Cheng, how much do you need?"
Wei Tao actually just glanced at the software tool on the information. It felt like a trust between old acquaintances. He didn't need to look at it and just asked how much it would cost.
There are reasons for this, but more importantly, it’s the name—Slow Hand.
Now that I have cut off my husband, will there be any changes in the relationship? The two people should have hit it off, but because of my existence, Cheng Xiao’s first choice was to come to Songjiang to find him. He was still just a very good person in the project. When I was in the small gadget stage, I came to invest on my own.
"What should I do, integrate, or fight with the left and right hands?"
