Chapter 7 Back to School
The phone number is a landline number in Beijing.
"Hello, is this Mr. Gu?" The voice on the phone was that of a middle-aged man who sounded familiar.
"Yes, who are you?" Gu Wei asked
"I'm Xiao Zhang from the domain name service company. I helped you purchase a domain name last year. Do you still remember it?"
"Oh, Manager Zhang, right? Sorry, it's been a while since I heard you. Please forgive me. What can I do for you?" Gu Wei asked.
"That's right, Mr. Gu, I have some great news to tell you." Manager Zhang said enthusiastically.
"What good news?" Gu Wei's heart moved, and he had already thought of something.
"We have a client who has taken a fancy to the domain name you have. You spent 300,000 yuan on it, but this client is willing to pay double the price, 600,000 yuan. You have doubled your profit in just a few months. Congratulations," said Manager Zhang.
"Oh, Manager Zhang. This domain name is very important to me. I don't plan to sell it in the short term, and I'm not short of money, so I'm sorry, please refuse it on my behalf." Gu Wei's tone was calm, without any emotion.
He already had a premonition that JD.com might be trying to repurchase the domain name. He didn't expect that the news in his previous life said the transaction was completed in June 2012, but someone contacted him in February of this life.
Those who want to purchase the domain name are either commissioned by JD.com or have information channels with JD.com. They want to hold the domain name in hand first and wait to make a big profit by doing business with JD.com.
"Mr. Gu, do you think this will work? Our customer is very sincere in wanting to buy. If you are not satisfied with the price, we can talk about it again. I can also help you negotiate the price." Manager Zhang said quickly.
"Could you please give us an expected price first so that we can help you negotiate?"
Gu Wei thought for a moment and said, "Manager Zhang, I'm not a heartless person. To be honest, I didn't intend to sell this domain name. But for your sake, if you really want to buy it, my offer is 5 million US dollars."
"You are not kidding, Mr. Gu, but you only spent 300,000 to buy it two months ago. The price of nearly 35 million RMB is too outrageous." Manager Zhang was very surprised.
"To be precise, I don't plan to sell this domain name. Although the purchase price is not high, it is worth 5 million US dollars in my heart." Gu Wei said in a firm tone.
"Well, Manager Zhang, you don't have to get excited. You can talk to the buyer. If he gives up, that's okay. If he still insists, then we can talk about the price again." Gu Wei said calmly, word by word.
There was a moment of silence on the other end. "Okay, Mr. Gu, your offer scared me. I'll talk to them first and then contact you if necessary. I wish you a happy new year."
"Thank you, goodbye" and then hung up.

Manager Zhang hung up the phone and looked up at the middle-aged Mediterranean man next to his workstation.
"How is it, Lao Zhang, what is the customer's quotation? Can we negotiate it?" Mediterranean asked with concern.
Manager Zhang frowned and said, "No, Mr. Huang, the client quoted $5 million. Either he doesn't want to sell it, or he may have guessed who the buyer is.
But I guess the second possibility is the most likely. Judging from the customer's tone, we don't need to quote a price of several million. He will definitely not accept it. Even if the deal is finally completed, it won't be much lower than this price."
Mr. Huang frowned. "Well, try it a few more times in the next few days. If it doesn't work, I'll talk to JD.com and see how much they can accept."
"Okay, I'll try my best. That's all I can do."

Airport
Gu Wei walked out of the security checkpoint while talking on the phone.
"Manager Zhang, I've told you several times that I won't consider your offers." Gu Wei's tone was a little impatient.
In the past few days, domain name broker Manager Zhang has called him several times. Each time, he either persuaded him or raised the quotation slightly. Today's quotation has been raised to 4 million RMB, but unfortunately it is still far from his expectations.
"Well, you don't have to persuade me anymore. You can't decide on a higher amount. I'm in Beijing right now. If you really want to buy, you can arrange for the buyer to come and talk to me directly. Just let me know when you set the time."
"Gu Wei~Gu Wei~, this way~"
A figure in the distance was waving his arms and shouting loudly.
She wore a dark blue baseball cap, big sunglasses, a brown printed mask, a black down jacket, dark tight jeans, and a pair of brown Martin boots.
Even thick clothes can't hide her good figure, it's Nazha.
"No more talking, I have something to do here, let's make an appointment when we have time." Then he hung up the phone.
Pulling the suitcase, he walked up to Nazha
"Honey, why are you here? Didn't you say you were busy recently?" He then let go of the suitcase and gave a big hug.
Then he picked up Nazha and spun around a few times before putting her down.
Nazha said excitedly
"Honey, do you miss me? I miss you so much. My company has an event nearby, so I'll pick you up as soon as it's over. Are you happy?"
"I miss my dear Nazha so much. I will reward you well later." Gu Wei put his mouth close to Nazha's ear and said with a gentle breath.
"You're so annoying! I came to pick you up, and you're still bullying me." She said this as she gently patted Gu Wei's arm with her little fist like a spoiled child.
Although she was wearing a mask, Gu Wei thought Nazha's face must be red.
The two walked out of the airport and got into Nazha's company car.
"This is my personal assistant, Yang Chun. Xiaochun'er, this is my boyfriend Gu Wei."
In the car, Nazha introduced
"Hello, Xiaochun'er. Please take care of Nazha. Nazha must have caused you a lot of trouble." Gu Wei said
Yang Chun was a plain-dressed, ordinary-looking girl who looked about the same age as them.
"No, no, it's usually Sister Nazha who takes care of me at work. I just do odd jobs and rough work."
The little girl was a little shy and kept waving her hands while talking.
"I'm very sensible, okay?" Nazha looked at Gu Wei with dissatisfaction and said
"Okay, okay, our Nazha is the most obedient and sensible," Gu Wei said with a smile
Xiaochun suddenly remembered something and said to Nazha, "Sister Nazha, we haven't told Mr. Cai about our trip yet. If he finds out, he'll be angry again."
"It's okay. We'll go back after we send Gu Wei back to school. It won't take long."
He shrank his head and said this, his voice sounding a little unconfident.
"If Mr. Cai finds out, just say I gave in."
Gu Wei asked, "Did coming to pick me up delay your work?"
"No, it's just that Manager Cai is quite strict. I didn't report this trip to her. I'll probably get a scolding when I get back. It's okay." Nazha said
The two of them talked sweetly for a while in the car
"How's things going with uncle?" Gu Wei asked
"It's still the same. We plan to transfer him to BJ in two months and then prepare for the surgery."
When talking about this topic, Nazha became unhappy.
"Don't worry too much. The big hospitals here in Beijing have advanced technology. Uncle will be fine."
Gu Wei comforted her, "If you don't have enough money for the surgery, please tell me and I will help you find a solution."
"What can you do? Do you want to ask your family for it? How can your parents agree?"
Nazha didn't take Gu Wei's words to heart. She knew that Gu Wei's family was well-off, but not wealthy.
The cost of surgery is a huge expense even for Gu Wei's family. If his parents knew that he gave 2 million to his girlfriend, they would definitely break his legs.
More than 2 million yuan, an ordinary family may not be able to save this amount of money in their lifetime.
If an ordinary person were to come up with this amount of money, they would have to sell everything they had, including houses and land. It is not certain whether they could even come up with enough.
She was very happy to know that Gu Wei had this intention.
Seeing this, Gu Wei didn't say anything else, and the car arrived at the school in a short while.
