Chapter 38
5 million, Li Jiashu did not have it, but when he heard the number 5 million, he actually thought of something he had seen and was shocked about - his sister-in-law's pocket money, 5 million a month, it didn't seem like money.
However, due to the distance between them, he certainly couldn't mention his sister-in-law's pocket money in front of Yun Zhou.
Instead, he said, "Xiaoyun, I wonder if there are any investors who have the foresight to recognize your talent. Come on!"
In his childhood impression, Aunt Yun was an excellent scientific researcher, and she resolutely gave up the high salary of an overseas research institute and returned to China at that time.
However, after returning to China, her partners were not optimistic about her because the development of related industries in China was still relatively slow and her ideas were slightly ahead of the times. In the end, it was Uncle Ming who resolutely supported her research at the cost of his entire fortune, and she finally achieved a breakthrough. Later, Uncle Ming also became her husband.
Li Jiashu knew all this because his grandfather had intentionally trained him in this area since he was a child, and he also understood Yun Zhou's family situation.
However, given the current situation of the Yun family, he didn't know whether the enterprising Aunt Yun had become extreme and stubborn, or whether she really believed in this project and was willing to spend all her money to achieve results, just like she did in the past.
Unexpectedly, Yun Zhou did not immediately become disappointed after hearing Li Jiashu's rejection. Instead, he immediately stuffed the folder in his hand into Li Jiashu's hand and said, "Boss Li, whether to invest or not, please take a look at the project book first."
Li Jiashu: "...I thought you were bringing your resume, but it turns out you came prepared."
He took it and was about to put it on the desk, saying, "I'll take a look at it when I have time." Just like his grandfather taught him, in fact, the development trajectory of the Yun family can also serve as a learning case for him.
However, Yun Zhou continued to say pitifully: "Boss Li, the second young master, Xiao Jia, Xiao Shu... just take a look now. The printing fee is dozens of dollars. I have to take them to the next interview later."
Li Jiashu: “…” You know how to push your luck.
But the other party was reluctant to spend the printing fee, so Li Jiashu still flipped through the books for him in person. He was already a boss, so he could still understand these things, and he was fascinated after just one look.
Feasibility studies seem to make sense, but there seem to be too many research directions? This thing is promising, but the return on investment cycle...
After taking a quick look, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Yun Zhou: "Five million?"
Yun Zhou nodded: "Yes."
Li Jiashu smiled: "I think your family spends 5 million a month on this thing." And the only thing that can make 5 million a month is his sister-in-law's pocket money.
Yun Zhou nodded: "Yes, I borrowed 5 million first, and you didn't borrow 50 million from you, right?"
He sighed, "So the best strategy is to find a big boss for marriage, so that his family can invest in my family and I can do research and development. What a mutually beneficial and win-win situation..."
Li Jiashu suddenly realized that Xiaoyun learned his way of thinking from his parents.
He said, "There is no 50 million, and there is no 5 million either. However, the fundamental reason is that although your project is feasible, the direction is not particularly clear. I suggest that you kill two projects first and then try to attract investment. It may be easier."
To be honest, he was a little tempted. Aunt Yun was really a visionary person, but everything she did was too advanced. Objectively speaking, he didn't know how long it would take to get a return on her investment.
Yun Zhou frowned for a rare moment and said seriously, "No, based on a rigorous attitude, all three directions are possible. This document only briefly describes them. I'll send you a detailed report by email. Can you take a look?"
Li Jiashu had a hard time reading the book just now. When he heard that there was a detailed report, he felt overwhelmed. He quickly stuffed the folder back to Yun Zhou and said, "Xiao Yun, go to the next company quickly. Come on! If you invest 5 million in one company, that means 50 million in 10 companies!"
Yun Zhou held the folder, looked at him resentfully, and sighed, "Brother Jiashu, you don't understand, right? We graduated from the same elementary school, but I didn't expect the gap between us would be so big after graduating from university. Sigh, I'm leaving first, you should do your best too."
Li Jiashu: "???...Wait! What did you say!"
But Yun Zhou still walked away without caring about his relatives.
Li Jiashu didn't expect that after being despised by his silly elementary school classmates, he still received his email that night, three big PDFs...
Then he received another WeChat message from Yunzhou: [Brother Jiashu, you were the smartest when you were little, tell me which two should be killed.]
Li Jiashu: “…” If he knew, he should be more powerful than Aunt Yun, and he would become the boss of the Yun family.
Moreover, before this thing is researched, there will be no answer if you ask professionals.
He is so angry that he is about to have a heart attack.
…
Gu Chen is now taking a bath in the bathtub in Li Tingqin's living room. The environment is indeed top-notch, with fully transparent glass floor-to-ceiling windows on both sides and a glass ceiling above.
The single-sided glass protects the owner's privacy. While taking a bath, one can see the gradually lush green branches outside the window in early summer. Looking up, one can see the gorgeous starry sky in the mountains that has not been polluted by light.
Gu Chen felt completely comfortable and relaxed both physically and mentally. This was the real feeling of living and recuperating in the mountains.
After taking a bath, at 9:40, he put on his silk bathrobe and went back to bed to lie down. The mattress and bedding were very comfortable. He leaned against the bedside table and dialed Li Tingqin's video.
Li Tingqin was in a meeting when he received the video call, but he knew it was Gu Chen at this time. It was 9:40 in the evening in China, so he should be lying in his bed, ready to go to sleep?
Li Tingqin picked up his vibrating phone, stood up and said, "Everyone, take a 20-minute break."
The deputies and middle-level managers present were a little surprised. Everyone knew that Mr. Li was full of energy at work, and he was concise and did not waste time when arranging work in meetings. If there was a work call during a meeting, he would answer it on the spot. There was almost no situation where he had to take a 20-minute break to answer the phone.
But it's good to be able to rest for 20 minutes.
Li Tingqin walked out of the conference room and then connected to Gu Chen's video. What he saw was a young man wearing a dark blue cross-collared silk pajamas, leaning against the familiar headboard of the bed.
The young man had a slight smile on his lips. Although he didn't wash his hair, he seemed to have taken a shower. The hair by his ears was a little wet. His cross-collared pajamas revealed his cold white collarbones and a slight chest line.
"Mr. Li?" Seeing that Li Tingqin hadn't spoken for a long time, Gu Chen crossed his legs leisurely on the big bed and said jokingly, "Although I have completed your task, will calling at this time affect your work?" It was nine forty in the morning, and Mr. Li was still in a suit.
When Assistant Chen heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and quickly helped President Li open the office door, and then closed the door from the outside. Could it be that all these people were part of the two gentlemen's play?
Li Tingqin said in a low voice, "No, this job won't stop if I'm gone. Are you... still used to it at home?"
Gu Chen said: "It's good. Your bathtub is also very easy to use, very comfortable, and the scenery is great..."
Li Tingqin's Adam's apple rolled again, and he said, "There are some bath balls and bath salts on the shelf. You can try them next time you take a bath."
Gu Chen said, "Oh? Really? I often use the brand xxx, and I think it's pretty good. Mr. Li can try it over there."
Li Tingqin's eyes dimmed slightly, and he said, "Okay."
While Gu Chen was video chatting with Li Tingqin with great interest, his WeChat messages kept popping up.
Li Jiashu: [Sister-in-law, sister-in-law! Help! ]
[Can you make up something to deal with this person like you dealt with grandpa and fourth cousin? ]
【pdf file】
[Just make up a few words to say that the direction of this project is not good. ]
[I can't even come up with two lies about this thing! I even feel like I studied for 18 years and it was all in vain = =]
[I'm really afraid that once I open my mouth, I'll reveal that I'm mentally retarded]
Li Tingqin was having a "very pleasant conversation" with Gu Chen, but suddenly Gu Chen stopped talking and seemed to be looking at something?
He asked, "Ah Chen? What's wrong?"
Gu Chen said: "Your brother is sending me a message."
Li Tingqin frowned and asked, "He sent you a message at this time?"
Gu Chen smiled and said, "He said he was mentally retarded or something... I don't know what happened to him."
However, Gu Chen ignored him and continued chatting with Li Tingqin: "Of course, it shouldn't be as interesting as talking to you, Mr. Li... Let's continue..."
"Achen..." Li Tingqin was about to say something, but Gu Chen seemed to be still sending messages.
Li Jiashu: [Forget it. I don't understand it. I think you, sister-in-law, can't understand it either. You can't fool people with this kind of stuff full of professional terms by making it up. I was just talking nonsense before. Sister-in-law, don't mind me.]
[How about you lend me 5 million, sister-in-law? I'll use it to send my classmates away. Just consider it a friendly investment.]
[Sister-in-law, I'll write you an IOU and pay you back when I make money, okay? Or I can sell two cars to pay you back?]
Gu Chen said to Li Tingqin, "Boss Li, wait a moment, I'll deal with it and call back later."
He glanced at the time, it was nine forty-eight, and then changed the subject: "Forget it, it's late, let's talk tomorrow."
Li Tingqin did not interfere in his affairs, but just said, "Okay, good night, Ah Chen."
Gu Chen said, "Then I won't disturb your meeting, President Li."
After hanging up the video, Gu Chen opened Li Jiashu's chat box and saw him talking to himself for a long time, and there was also a PDF file.
Did he originally want me to tell him that this thing didn't work? Then he decided it wasn't reliable, so he changed it to borrowing money?
Gu Chen clicked it and took a look. He felt that the content was somewhat familiar. It was one of the wrong directions he had taken in a certain world before.
He glanced at the time. It was nine fifty.
Okay, he didn't want this situation to happen again when he talked to Mr. Li on the phone tomorrow.
He took the memo from the bedside table and quickly wrote down a formula. The content was very rough, but the person who made this document was very professional and he should be able to understand it after looking at a few key points.
He took a photo and sent it to Li Jiashu, saying, "Okay, no, this research direction can be abandoned."
[Don’t send me messages after 9 o’clock in the future. ]
I looked at the time and it was nine fifty-nine.
Gu Chen added: [Don’t reply to my message now. ]
Lie down and sleep.
When Li Jiashu received this picture, he was confused. He remembered that his sister-in-law was a finance major, right? Why did she write such a formula that didn't recognize any relatives? Did she copy it from the Internet? It didn't seem so, because he took a look and found that this thing matched the document to some extent.
Li Jiashu was full of questions, but his sister-in-law actually told him not to reply to messages anymore. Wouldn't this make him unable to sleep all night?
He glanced at the time 21:59:59. He heard that his sister-in-law went to bed at 10 o'clock. Is it still possible to save her?
But before he could make the call, he received a call from his brother, and his brother's voice sounded very unhappy: "Don't send messages to your sister-in-law after 9 o'clock."
Li Jiashu: "?" How did his brother know that he was texting his sister-in-law just now? And why did he say the same thing as his sister-in-law, that he couldn't do it after 9 o'clock?
When Li Tingqin heard that Li Jiashu did not respond, he softened his tone and said, "It will disturb your sister-in-law's rest."
Li Jiashu asked in confusion: "Doesn't my sister-in-law go to bed at 10 o'clock?"
Li Tingqin did not answer his question, and his tone suddenly became a little dangerous: "It seems that you don't have to send messages to your sister-in-law in the future..."
Li Jiashu finally realized, "!!! Could it be that you were just... Oh oh oh! It turns out that we can use video every day even if we are 12 time zones apart..."
Li Tingqin hung up his phone.
"...Contact?" Li Jiashu said the last two words, and listened to the busy tone on the phone, and continued to be confused, "Why did you hang up suddenly? I didn't know you guys chat for an hour at night... You chatted for too long today..."
He turned his gaze back to the picture Gu Chen sent him and hesitated for a moment.
But at this time, Yun Zhou sent another message, saying: [Brother Jiashu, it's already evening, I'm going to sleep, how is your research going? ]
Li Jiashu: “…” Why do everyone have to go to bed at ten o’clock at night?
He stared at the sentence [Okay, no, this research direction can be abandoned.] and felt a mysterious, concise, and pretentious power.
Well, never mind, let’s give it a try.
So he forwarded the picture to Yun Zhou and said coldly:
[Okay, no, this research direction can be killed. ]
But Yun Zhou didn't reply for a long time, just when Li Jiashu felt that he might not sleep well tonight.
Yun Zhou said: [No, I have to go see my mom.]
