Chapter 79

Gu Jiangkuo also laughed, "Where did you learn this from?"

Jiang Nuo thought to himself: I learned this from some stupid netizens a few years later.

It seemed like everything he said touched Gu Jiangkuo's heart. Gu Jiangkuo was aloof in front of outsiders, but his sense of humor dropped when he was with him. He couldn't stop laughing because of the line "If there are conditions, I want to be a human being." Jiang Nuo couldn't help but interrupt him: "Did you receive the medical examination notice? Don't forget to register for the project."

The reason why the people of Yanlin consider the Jiang Group to be the most prestigious job besides the iron rice bowl within the system is because of its good benefits. Every year, all employees have a physical examination, and female employees also have a special gynecological examination.

This physical examination needs to be manually selected and filled in in advance, because in addition to the basic physical examination items, there are different additional packages, including thyroid function package, arteriosclerosis package, and insulin package. These need to be reported in advance so that the company can make unified reservations.

"I've already reported it," Gu Jiangkuo said. "I'm at the grassroots level, so I'm probably more informed than you."

"?" Jiang Nuo, "What do you mean?"

Gu Jiangkuo: "For example, right now, grassroots employees are saying that you will sing 'Thank You' at the annual meeting, and everyone is looking forward to it."

"..." Jiang Nuo was embarrassed. "You're all waiting to see me laugh. I can't even sing."

But the rumors were certainly not groundless. It was a tradition for CEOs to sing at annual meetings. Mr. Jiang used to sing "Serve the Country with Loyalty" every year. The head of the administrative office, responsible for organizing the annual meeting, gave Mr. Jiang several song options, all of which were classic, upbeat songs that seemed appropriate for the occasion. Jiang Nuo casually chose "Thank You."

The program list hasn't even been finalized yet, but it has already been passed to the grassroots level.

Jiang Nuo suddenly remembered that it was no wonder that every time he went to the office downstairs, he heard someone playing the short video of him and Gu Jiangkuo's "debut".

Even netizens commented on his hoarse voice and said his singing was unpleasant. Tsk, no wonder, it turns out the staff were waiting for him to sing out of tune on stage.

"Who said I sang?" Mr. Jiang denied with a dark face: "That's not true."

Gu Jiangkuo saw Pavarotti in his lover's eyes and said seriously, "You sing very well."

"Anyway, I won't sing. Rumors are all lies. I'm the boss. If you have anything, just ask me directly. Asking me is the most accurate."

"Then let me ask, when will you be home tonight?"

“…”

"I miss you."

.

During their busy days, the two of them would take time out every day to chat on the phone, and it seemed like they could never finish talking. Until New Year's Eve, the group's affairs were finally almost done, and President Jiang could finally take some time off. He brought Gu Jiangkuo with him and asked President Zhao to come out for a private talk.

In theory, the annual reports of listed companies must be published between January 1 and April 30 each year, so Shengchen New Energy's annual report is tentatively scheduled for April, adopting a strategy of delaying it as long as possible.

"When the financial report is released, the stock price will probably plummet." Mr. Zhao sighed.

As a shareholder, Gu Jiangkuo's advance inspection wasn't against the rules; it was just that there was another person watching, CEO Jiang. Jiang Nuo leaned in, looking closely, their heads almost touching. So close, Gu Jiangkuo could see his thick eyelashes casting fan-like shadows when he lowered his eyes. It took a tremendous amount of willpower to keep his attention focused.

"The accounts do seem to be..." After reading them, President Jiang looked away and chose a euphemism, "It's indeed different from what Jin Lin boasted about in front of the media."

It's not just different, it's hugely different!

After seeing this financial report, investors will definitely rush out on trains overnight.

"Although the profit is not much, most of it is invested in research and development, so there is still a prospect." Mr. Jiang said pertinently.

"Ah." Mr. Zhao sighed and expressed gratitude, "I wish I had met a mentor like you earlier."

"It's not too late now." Gu Jiangkuo interrupted, "Mr. Zhao, please make sure the data is accurate, well-reasoned, and completed ahead of schedule."

"Definitely." Mr. Zhao asked, "About when?"

"Maybe before the Lunar New Year," Jiang Nuo decided. He was a man who held grudges and didn't really want those people to have a good New Year.

"We will also have news by then, which will be released together with Shengchen's annual report. Don't be too surprised, Mr. Zhao. This is all within the plan." Mr. Jiang added.

.

After saying goodbye to Mr. Zhao, Gu Jiangkuo did not return to school or the construction site, but followed Jiang Nuo back to the company first.

Young Master Jiang leaned lazily on the passenger seat and said, "There's nothing to do this afternoon, why don't you go home and rest first?"

"What kind of rest is it to go home alone?" Gu Jiangkuo whispered, "I want to see you a little longer."

It's really hard to bear when a tough guy gets affectionate. Young Master Jiang felt warm and sweet in his heart, but he still held back his words: "What's so good about me?"

It’s really beautiful, Gu Jiangkuo thought.

Then he moved his right hand away from the gear lever, spread it out in front of Jiang Nuo, and grabbed it lightly.

Jiang Nuo had no choice but to put her hand into his palm.

This guy, ever since they held hands, seemed to have opened the door to a new world and became a hand-holding maniac. He was so clingy that Young Master Jiang didn't dare to take the next step with him, for fear that he would become addicted to other things as well. How could he, with his small body, bear it?

While driving, Gu Jiangkuo caressed the soft and tender little hands with relish. He felt more and more happy, and bubbles of happiness filled his body.

However, compared to the muscular man's tenderness, President Jiang seemed a little allergic to romance, showing an outrageous straight man attribute - he finally had some free time these days and no one disturbed him in the office. Gu Jiangkuo wanted to spend more time alone with him, but Jiang Nuo pulled him aside and chatted about business enthusiastically for the whole afternoon.

Although Gu Jiangkuo was reluctant, he had a talent for business and had accumulated a certain amount of experience in the Jiang family. He could answer all the questions asked by Jiang Nuo fluently.

Jiang Nuo: "After a while, I plan to use the name of Baimi Technology and the Jiang family's financial platform to conduct a second round of financing. This time, the term will be longer and the amount will be larger. Of course, high returns come with high risks. What do you think?"

Gu Jiangkuo: "Are you preparing for the future acquisition of Shengchen?"

President Jiang had long been aware of Gu Jiangkuo's cleverness in this regard, and he gave him a look full of approval, "Yes. But this requires your consent..."

Gu Jiangkuo said, "That's a good idea. Besides, we can use this financing as a secondary mortgage and then apply for a bank loan, thereby increasing leverage."

...Good boy! As expected of Mr. Gu, he's so brave!

"With such high leverage, aren't you afraid that if something goes wrong, you won't get your money back?" Jiang Nuo vetoed. "After all, you're the legal representative of Baimi Technology. I can afford one round of financing, but if you increase leverage again, even if I'm the chairman of Jiang Group, I can't protect you. The board of directors..."

"No need," Gu Jiangkuo said, "We are determined to acquire Shengchen. We have made so many preparations and are now at least 90% sure. If we take appropriate risks, we can gain greater benefits."

Jiang Nuo: "But..."

"Doing business is accompanied by risks, and I can bear this risk." Gu Jiangkuo said firmly.

Jiang Nuo: “…”

Jiang Nuo has gradually discovered that Gu Jiangkuo is changing quietly, and is becoming more and more different from the dark and tall boy who was picked up from the construction site. He has now begun to take shape as a businessman, and is also the kind of entrepreneur who has a bit of bandit spirit and dares to take risks, rather than a "king of status quo" like himself.

Mr. Jiang is a man of cautious approach and conservative nature. Jiang Nuo knows that they have different philosophies and that a debate in advance won't yield any conclusions. It would be better to wait and see how the situation develops and make a judgment later. He simply changes the subject and says, "By the way, I've already transferred the 1 million yuan principal back to your account. Don't forget to keep it safe."

Gu Jiangkuo frowned slightly and said reluctantly, "This is for you, why are you hitting it back?"

Jiang Nuo: "This is grandma's money, we are just borrowing it."

Gu Jiangkuo said anxiously, "I have already saved money for grandma's retirement, including salary, dividends, and the money I reserved before..."

"If you want to contribute to the household expenses, you can transfer your salary to me," Jiang Nuo said casually, "You'd better save grandma's money. It's best to save it in a principal-guaranteed fixed deposit and don't buy any financial products."

"...Okay!" Gu Jiangkuo looked at him eagerly, "Then I'll save all the money I earn for you from now on."

Young Master Jiang smiled perfunctorily and didn't take it seriously.

He didn't know that the phrase "hand over the household expenses" instantly healed Gu Jiangkuo, nor did he know how much wealth this casual request made today would bring him in the future - more than the entire Jiang family combined.

Of course, that’s a later story.

Now Jiang Zhinan hasn't talked enough about work: "Let's wait until after the New Year. After the New Year, we can find some time. I've set my eyes on a few lithium mines..."

The phone rang at an inopportune moment.

Mr. Jiang had long developed an occupational disease. He was afraid of work, so whenever he heard something, he would check his phone first. However, he was too lazy to move, so he ordered Gu Jiangkuo: "Give me my phone and see who it is."

Gu Jiangkuo took Jiang Nuo's personal phone and confirmed again: "Can I see it?"

Mr. Jiang's emotional intelligence finally returned, and he did something that even he admired, showing his high emotional intelligence. He said deeply: "Of course, what's the difference between you and me?" Besides, there was nothing he couldn't see.

Gu Jiangkuo was indeed touched and sweet. Then, the corners of his mouth slowly straightened and he said sourly, "Yu Min said he was coming to Yanlin for the Shengchen shareholders' meeting and wanted to have dinner with you alone."

The word "alone" is emphasized.
