As soon as Cheng Guangyao was sent away downstairs, Ma Yuan couldn't wait to pull Shao Le and asked: "People are interested in investing in us, why do you think about it? We are short of money now."
"You really think he is a fool. What would he think if I acted as positively as you?"
Shao Le said as he walked into the Entrepreneurship Center: "For example, when you went out to play, you met a girl you liked very much. You walked over and wanted to get to know her. As a result, she not only took the initiative to add you on WeChat, but also took the initiative to add you to WeChat in the evening. He also took the initiative to take you to a hotel to book a room, what would you think at that time?"
"Fairy jump?"
"The more active we are, the less confident we appear. Even if I let him buy shares, is it possible that he will give us the money tonight? To do big business, you must know how to take a long-term view to catch big fish."
Shao Le said with a smile: "The first thing this old Cheng will do after returning is to search for news about our company on the Internet, and maybe do market research. Where can there be such brainless upstarts these days? What do you think? He is stupid and has a lot of money, maybe he just wants you to see this side of him."
Everything was as Shao Le expected.
As soon as Cheng Guangyao drove out of school, he immediately parked on the roadside, turned on his folding mobile phone, and searched for news about Lexue.com on the Internet. He stayed on the roadside for half an hour, and then He took out his cell phone and called someone in his address book.
"Mr. Cheng."
"Xiao Liu, please help me check a company called Leyuan Information Co., Ltd. Its main business is an educational website called Lexue.com."
"Mr. Cheng, what aspect do you want to know about?"
"I want to know whether this company is worth investing in. It would be best if you could find out the background information of the owner of this company."
"Okay, I'll try my best."
…
the next day.
The basic information about Leyuan Information Co., Ltd. was sent to Cheng Guangyao.
"Mr. Cheng, although this company has only been established for a short period of time, it is already well-known in the education industry in Beijing. The market share of online education even exceeds that of many established companies that have done a lot of online education."
Cheng Guangyao looked through the information and asked, "Have you found the information about their boss?"
"Are you talking about Shao Le?"
"right."
"Not found."
"Didn't find it?"
"Well, I can't find any information about him on the Internet, but there is a man named Ma Yuan in their company. He followed the clues and found out that he is the son of Ma Zhenguo, the executive vice president of BAIC Group."
"The son of the executive vice president of BAIC Group?"
Cheng Guangyao covered the document, squinted his eyes and said to himself: "He looks like a little follower next to Shao Le. This means that Shao Le's background will only be bigger than him. Also, if it is a little bit How can an ordinary college student with no background be so smooth in dealing with others?"
"You go down first."
"yes."
Cheng Guangyao sat on the soft sofa in the presidential suite of the five-star hotel. After thinking for a long time, he took the initiative to call Shao Le.
When Shao Le saw the call from Cheng Guangyao, he directly connected it and put it to his ear.
"Hey, Lao Cheng."
"How are you? Are you busy?"
"I'm busy every day."
"Has Boss Shao considered what I said yesterday?"
"I held an online meeting with several shareholders this morning. We can sell up to 15% of our shares now."
Cheng Guangyao: "Then what is your company's current valuation?"
"The valuation of our company in the last round was 50 million, so in the second round of financing, I sold 20% of the shares and received an investment of 10 million. With the current valuation, I guess we have a small target."
"Don't fool me. I checked on your website. The largest number of people in your online education live broadcast room is only a few thousand people, and the total number definitely does not exceed 100,000."
"But I have reached a cooperation with the Education Bureau of Gan Province. Starting from the 12th, our users will surge to more than 3 million, and they will all be students. Lao Cheng, why don't we just wait until the 12th? Let’s talk about this later, right?”
Cheng Guangyao felt nervous and hurriedly smiled and said: "We have reached a cooperation with the Education Bureau? Is it true?"
"of course it's true."
Shao Le was about to speak when Du Xiangling walked into the conference room from the outside: "Boss, someone just sent the keys to the other offices on this floor."
"Ask Ma Yuan to take Jin Mingxuan and the others to clean things up, and then contact the decoration company immediately to try to decorate all the other offices on this floor before January. There will definitely not be enough classrooms after the 12th."
"good."
Shao Le also didn't expect Du Xiangling to come in at such a time.
On the other end of the phone, Cheng Guangyao heard the conversation between the two people and fell silent.
Shao Le smiled and said: "Old Cheng, if you have nothing else to do here, then let's do this first. I have a lot of things to do here."
"No, let's do this. I'll be the host tonight and we can go out and have a meal together."
"also."
"Then I'll send you the location later."
"Okay, that's it for now. Goodbye."
After saying that, Shao Le hung up the phone.
The less interested Shao Le was in investing, the more curious Cheng Guangyao became about Shao Le. Yesterday, he noticed a Patek Philippe on Shao Le's wrist. As a master of watches, Cheng Guangyao could tell the authenticity of that watch at a glance. Fake, if you were an ordinary person, wearing such an expensive watch, you would probably have to show it off wherever you go, but Shao Le, a college student in his early twenties, when he was a young man, he actually hid the watch in his sleeve .
He did this either because this watch was nothing to him, or because he was a low-key person and didn't want to show off.
Whether it was the former or the latter, Cheng Guangyao had a strong interest in Shao Le.
…
In the afternoon, Huo Siyan came to the company and sent back the clothes to Shao Le.
Shao Le took the clothes and asked with a smile: "You didn't tell your dad about that, right?"
Huo Siyan looked up at Shao Le and said coldly: "Do you think I am the kind of child who has to tell my family if something happens?"
Shao Le shrugged and said: "Anyway, don't take this matter to heart, just treat it as a mental illness."
Huo Siyan didn't want to talk about this, so she asked, "I just wanted to go to the store to return your clothes to Lin Keke, but when I went there, the store wasn't open yet, and there was only one little girl inside."
"Oh, her name is Xia Rou, and she also works in the store now."
"She shouldn't be a college student, right?"
"no."
"Where did you find this person?"
Shao Le said: "This is a long story. I'll tell you more when I have time."
Huo Siyan pursed her lips: "I don't know where I got this little girl from."
Shao Le saw that she looked very resentful, so he simply told the reasons why Xia Rou went to work in the store.
"...Do you understand? I am helping her and doing good things."
"cut."
"Why do I feel like you hate me?"
"You just knew?"
"Then why do you still come to work in my company? Since you hate me so much, shouldn't you stay away from me?"
"I……"
"Last time I saw a video on Douyin. The video said that if someone says he hates you but still always hangs around you, then he actually likes you. Huo Siyan, don't you think so?"
Before she finished speaking, Huo Siyan blushed: "Shut up!"
