That Year Flowers Bloomed 1981

This is an era where getting into college means soaring to great heights, an era where opportunities abound for rapid success, and also an era where genuine, unwavering emotions still exist;

...

Chapter 455 Who is the one who is inflated?

Chapter 455 Who is the one who is inflated?

Li Ye's question "Are you deaf?" made Zhang Rui blush.

He thought he had some "friendship" with Li Ye, especially his father, Director Zhang, who had a good impression of Li Ye at the beginning and even praised Li Ye in person.

You should know that Director Zhang seldom praises anyone. All those who receive his praise are very grateful for his recognition and are willing to establish a relationship with Zhang Rui's family.

But why is Li Ye in front of me so ignorant of the current situation?

However, in recent years, Zhang Rui has met many foreigners who speak fluently overseas, and he has mastered the ability to quickly regulate his emotions. It only takes a few seconds for him to burst into laughter.

"Brother, why are you doing this? Hahahaha, listen to me, don't care too much about the regrets of the past, and focus on the money."

"In fact, my biggest gain from my time in Britain over the past few years is not knowledge, nor a master's degree from the University of British Columbia. Instead, I have realized a truth: all your regrets can be made up with money."

"Brother Li Ye, look at the suit I'm wearing, it's 68 pounds, and look at the shoes on my feet, they're 99 pounds. I'm not telling you these things to teach you the principle that 'brothers are like limbs and women are like clothes', but..."

Zhang Rui paused for a moment, lowering his voice and saying to Li Ye: "Lu Jingyao is nothing. As long as you have money, there will be a platoon of beautiful girls chasing you."

Li Ye looked at Zhang Rui indifferently and said calmly: "I have no money, but there are still a long line of girls chasing me."

“.”

"Hahahahahahahaha, brother you are so humorous, hahahaha~"

Zhang Rui originally thought that his "experience of studying abroad" could disturb Li Ye's mind and lead him by the nose skillfully, but Li Ye only used one sentence to make him unable to respond.

Li Ye is handsome! It's OK even if he doesn't have money.

"Okay, okay, brother, I won't chat with you about these trivial things. I want to tell you something serious."

After Zhang Rui laughed for a while, he stopped smiling and said to Li Ye seriously, "Brother, I'll be honest with you. During the two years I've been studying abroad, I've learned that opportunity is money. Now I have a good opportunity and I want to talk to you about it."

Li Ye wanted to say, "I don't want to talk to you. You are not qualified." But after thinking about it, he wanted to see what Zhang Rui was up to, so he nodded slightly and said, "You go ahead."

Zhang Rui suppressed his unhappiness and said, "Brother, I remember your pen name is Seven-inch Blade, right?"

Li Ye nodded and said, "Yes."

"Then you have found the right person," Zhang Rui said, "It's the Jonina I just mentioned. She made millions of pounds in just over a year. Do you know where she made all this money from?"

Li Ye said without emotion: "A Song of Ice and Fire, you just mentioned it."

"That's right, but do you know who owns the copyright to the book A Song of Ice and Fire?"

Seeing Zhang Rui's expression as if saying "I have a big secret, do you want to know?", Li Ye stopped talking. "The copyright of the specially brewed "A Song of Ice and Fire" is in my hands. Do you think I know who has it?"

Zhang Rui waited for a long time but Li Ye didn't cooperate, so he had to say: "The copyright of A Song of Ice and Fire is in the hands of Hong Kong Talang Literary Publishing House! It's the same publisher as your North Wind Flying."

Li Ye looked at Zhang Rui, who was obviously impatient, and said calmly: "Then what? What does this have to do with me?"

"Hey, brother, why don't you understand it yet? This is an opportunity, an opportunity to make a lot of money."

Zhang Rui said angrily: "I asked my friends at Beijing University. You know Mr. Pei Wencong from Tallang Literature Publishing House, right? As long as you know him, it's fine.

Mr. Pei can buy the overseas copyright of your "North Wind Flying", so why can't we talk to him and get the mainland copyright of "A Song of Ice and Fire"? "

[It's no use talking to Pei Wencong. You've come to the wrong temple, okay?]

But Zhang Rui continued to talk about his plan to make a fortune: "I can translate A Song of Ice and Fire into Chinese, and I can also find connections to publish it. It is a bestseller overseas, so there is no reason why it can't be a big seller in China.

In this way, we have earned the most valuable first pot of gold. You know what the first pot of gold means.

With the start-up capital, the government has now relaxed restrictions on private enterprises. What do you think? This is a great opportunity with the right time, right place and right people. It is hard not to make money.

I have a friend who can buy the planned supplies. I will take you there when the time comes. Brother, I will tell you a secret. During the two years in Britain, Lu Jingyao rejected countless suitors. By then, you will have a successful career."

“.”

Looking at Zhang Rui who was spitting everywhere, Li Ye couldn't help but sigh that the era of 900 million people falling down has really come.

Since 1984, countless "empty-handed" ideas have been regarded as a guide by a group of people who have no money but are eager to get rich.

Even the concept of "dot company" was packaged into a skit and performed on the Spring Festival Gala. A group of smart people felt that every "good idea" they came up with was a golden key that could open the door to wealth.

Whenever a few friends get together, if someone says, "I have an idea," the brothers would feel embarrassed if they didn't empty their pockets to treat this big brother to a meal.

Zhang Rui's idea was more realistic than those unrealistic fantasies. At least he used Lu Jingyao as an entry point, and he actually knew Pei Wencong.

It’s a pity that "A Song of Ice and Fire" was translated from Chinese into English. Do I still need you to do "reverse research"?

I have run my own private company for three years. Do I still need you to lead me?

So Li Ye interrupted Zhang Rui coldly without waiting for him to finish, "I majored in economics, I know more about this than you!"

“.”

Zhang Rui really couldn't continue the conversation. He felt that if he continued like this, Li Ye would make him so angry that his tortoise breathing technique would take effect and he would suffocate.

Li Ye seems to be a spirited young man, so how could he be so hard-hearted and so stubborn?

Zhang Rui thought to himself that his combination of punches was definitely sharp enough. He first threw out the news that Lu Jingyao was "different now", which aroused Li Ye's thought of learning from his mistakes and then being braver. Then he took the opportunity to propose his own plan to make money, and Li Ye definitely took the bait.

Think about it, if a couple breaks up, after knowing that the other is living a good life now, who wouldn’t want to live a better life than the other?

Lu Jingyao is now earning thousands of pounds every month. According to the black market exchange rate, that's over ten thousand a month. Don't you, Li Ye, have any idea of ​​catching up with her, or renewing our relationship?

No matter what Li Ye thought or what ideas he had, Zhang Rui felt that he needed help from him and he could lead Li Ye by the nose.

If you want to go back and look for Lu Jingyao, I'm the one who introduced you to her. If you want to make money, I can take you there by plane. When the time comes, why don't you, Li Ye, return this house and furniture as a thank-you gift?

But listen to what Li Ye said?

Are you deaf?

I had no money but a row of girls still pounced on me.

I study economics, so don't try to teach me about economics.

Bah, you, a country bumpkin who has never seen the world, do you know the 88 uses of money? Do you know the 99 ways to play with capital?

I am a person who has returned from the West to seek Buddhist scriptures. I am here to teach you the scriptures with good intentions, but you are still being hypocritical? If I tell this to others, I will have to pay a consulting fee, don’t you know?

"Brother, you have never seen the outside world. You are a frog in a well and don't know it!"

"Bang~"

Zhang Rui had just said something angrily when the door to the east room opened.

Sister Li Yue came out and said coldly: "Comrade, it's getting late, and my Li Ye has to go back to school!

You should go back early too! Otherwise, if you accidentally fall into the well when it gets dark and the road is slippery, you may not be able to swim like a frog."

“.”

Zhang Rui's face turned red and white, he was angry and annoyed, and his head was buzzing, as if someone had punched him on the temple.

Before he could retort, Li Dayong, who had been silent the whole time, said in a muffled voice: "Let's go, comrade, we are closing the shop."

Seeing the bear-like Li Dayong approaching him, Zhang Rui shuddered suddenly, as if he remembered some bad things that happened in Britain.

Street violence exists everywhere. In Britain, the thugs who target Chinese people late at night all have this physique.

"No need to send me off. Just pretend I'm not here today."

Zhang Rui was furious and walked out after saying something harsh.

Li Yue behind him sternly rebuked his brother: "How did you get involved with such a person?"

Li Ye replied calmly, "He wasn't like this before. After a trip overseas, he became arrogant."

Zhang Rui almost fell down as he walked down the stairs.

[Who is the one who is inflated? Is it you who are inflated? 】

[I came here with good intentions. Did you say anything nice to me all night? ]

Zhang Rui really didn't understand. According to the information provided by He Xue, Li Ye was a man who loved Lu Jingyao to the bone, and it was absolutely right for him to choose Lu Jingyao as a breakthrough point.

Think about it! Which boy wouldn't be tempted by an ex-girlfriend who is both beautiful and rich?

How did it end up like this?

After Zhang Rui walked out of the yard, he reached out to take out the motorcycle key, but after several trembling attempts, he failed to insert it into the keyhole of the motorcycle. Instead, his hand shook and the key fell to the ground.

Just as he was searching for the key in the dark, Li Ye and others came out and closed and locked the door of the courtyard.

[They really don't live here often. If they don't live in this house, why are they still occupying it? ]

But the next moment, Zhang Rui saw Li Ye and others got into two cars in the alley.

A small BMW and a Santana.

The headlights of both cars lit up, illuminating the key that fell on the ground and blinding Zhang Rui's eyes.

Zhang Rui finally realized where he was wrong.

The Santana car is fine, after all, it is produced domestically and many government and enterprise units have it, so it is most likely a government car.

But that little BMW was definitely not a government car. No leader would buy a short-axle performance car with a cramped rear seat.

Zhang Rui had seen this kind of car in Britain. The starting price was tens of thousands of pounds, and it would cost at least hundreds of thousands to ship it to China.

It turns out that while I was gaining experience in Britain over the past two years, Li Ye seemed to have been busy too.

Even if Lu Jingyao earns over ten thousand yuan a month, when can she save up hundreds of thousands?

He came to find Li Ye because he wanted to stimulate him and let him make money with him, but it seemed that he had no shortage of opportunities and help to make money.

So who is inflated now?
