Chapter 24 Office



Even after getting into the Cayenne, Anrou still couldn't believe it.

"Boss... is this the car you bought?"

"Yes, I bought it when I went shopping at Wanda Plaza over the weekend."

An Rou was full of questions. "I have to check the price of a T-shirt before I buy it, but you just buy a car?"

Looking at the Cayenne's luxurious interior, An Rou asked, "Boss, how much does this car cost?"

"One million two hundred thousand."

An Rou immediately withdrew her hand, which was about to touch the interior, exclaiming, "Young Master Duo?! You damn Young Master Duo?!"

"One million two hundred thousand? Isn't that a normal price for a Porsche?"

"Hiss~ Boss, I suddenly feel like the 100 million you mentioned to me this morning wasn't a joke."

The Cayenne was being driven to the dealership, and the new car smell was quite strong, so Lin Chen kept the window open. The taxi driver who had just brought them there had just finished eating and was coming out of Shaxian Restaurant. When he saw Lin Chen driving the Cayenne with one hand, he froze on the spot, not even noticing that the toothpick in his mouth had fallen out.

Lin Chen drove An Rou back to the school cafeteria. After getting her food, An Rou returned looking unhappy: "Boss, you drive a luxury car worth millions, aren't you going to treat me to something nice?"

"The cafeteria is great! It has vegetables and meat, and it doesn't use gutter oil. Let's eat quickly, we still need to go to the business department after we finish eating."

In the afternoon, the two went to the industrial and commercial department to obtain the business license for Xingchen Technology Co., Ltd., and then immediately returned to the entrepreneurship center.

When their instructor saw them return, he said, "Wow, you're back so soon! You guys are pretty fast. That place is quite far from the subway station; it takes half an hour to walk there after you get off the subway."

An Rou's lips twitched as she glanced at the elegant Porsche owner beside her, who was feigning ignorance.

The instructor then asked, "How many people are there in your company now?"

An Rou cautiously held up two fingers: "Two...two."

The supervising teacher was also dumbfounded. It was the first time she had encountered a company with only two people. She paused for a moment and said, "Um, I remember there is a small office at the corner of the stairs on the second floor. It should be enough for the two of you."

Find the key and lead the two to the second floor. An Rou took one look and exclaimed, "This isn't just small! It's ridiculously small! The entire office only has two desks and a filing cabinet, with no other extra space. If the company adds even one more person, they'll have to sit by the door."

The supervising teacher was also a little embarrassed. The reason this office had been empty was because it was too small, only able to seat two people. She had been thinking, how could a company only have two people? Well, she actually encountered that situation today.

"Ahem... Students, the number of available offices in the startup center is quite limited right now, and the second floor is the best location, so please make do for now. You can apply for a new office when your company has grown and expanded."

After saying that, he handed the key to An Rou and ran away.

Lin Chen didn't care. The main reason he started this company was because he wanted to skip classes openly. He had been a programmer for ten years in his previous life, and his theory and practice were much more advanced than what was taught in the classroom now. Going to class now was a waste of his time, so he didn't care about the size of the office at all, and he might not even come to work there.

"Senior Anrou, you're a company veteran. The company will rely on you in the future. Our company doesn't have much business right now, so your first task is to learn to drive. Otherwise, when you go out with the boss, he'll be the one driving. Is that reasonable?"

He then opened his mobile banking app and transferred 10,000 yuan to An Rou.

"I'll give you five thousand for driving school, and the other five thousand is your salary for this month. Okay, could you clean this place up while you're at it? I'm off now, bye-bye."

An Rou stared at this absentee boss with astonishment in her eyes. Not only did he pay for her driving school, but he also gave her a salary. In Shanghai in 2009, a salary of 5,000 yuan was not high, but it was already quite good for a college student who had not yet graduated. After all, her classmates were doing meaningless jobs such as scanning, printing, and buying coffee for free at other companies, just to get an internship certificate.

After Lin Chen left the startup center, he received a call from a man named Liang Weizhong who claimed to be a manager from some department at NetEase. Liang Weizhong immediately offered five million yuan to acquire Fruit Ninja, and his words were full of arrogance.

"You're crazy." Lin Chen hung up the phone immediately.

Liang Weizhong on the other end of the phone was furious. He was originally a minor leader in a government department, but he switched jobs to NetEase. Because of his connections, he was able to secure several good projects for NetEase. His current position is the manager of NetEase's investment department.

Two days ago, Ding Lei approached him, asking him to use his connections to contact Lin Chen and see if he could acquire Fruit Ninja. Liang Weizhong casually glanced at the information and found that Lin Chen was just a young college freshman. So he didn't bother to read the rest and directly called Lin Chen. He figured that five million was an unimaginable sum of money for a young college freshman, and he would definitely be overwhelmed by it. Then he could skim off a portion of it, not only completing the task Ding Lei assigned but also making a small fortune. He had done this kind of thing many times before.

As a result, Lin Chen hung up on him immediately, and he heard Lin Chen call him "crazy" at the end, which made him furious.

"Hmph, you brat, you don't know your place. You'll regret this in a few days. That's five million! I'll just deduct one million from your pay and make you feel the pinch."

Lin Chen thought NetEase must have gotten too big for their britches. Did they think they were invincible just because they got the World of Warcraft distribution rights? Five million? Ding Lei, you should just go back to raising your pigs.

Lin Chen casually blocked the number and drove to Fudan University.

"Shen Yifei, I promised to take you out for fun after picking up the car. I'm at your school gate now."

"Hey, Lin Chen, where are you? I'm coming right now... Ah!"

"Hey, what's wrong?"

"Waaaaah, Lin Chen, I twisted my ankle when I got off the bed, it hurts so much."

"You silly goose, why are you in such a hurry? I'm not going anywhere. Wait here, I'll come to your dorm to find you."

Lin Chen parked his car at the school gate and walked to Shen Yue's dormitory building.

"Chen Yue, I'm downstairs at your dorm, but I can't get up. Can you walk?"

"Wait for me a moment, my roommate is helping me down."

Five minutes later, Shen Yue was helped out of the girls' dormitory by her two roommates.

Lin Chen stepped forward, squatted down, and took a look. Shen Yue's right ankle was noticeably more swollen than her left. He wondered if any bones were broken.

"Let me take you to the hospital to get it checked out; it looks a bit serious."

With that, he picked up Shen Yue in a princess carry, greeted her two roommates, and then strode towards the school gate.

Shen Yue's two roommates quickly took out their phones and took pictures of Lin Chen hugging Shen Yue, then sent them to their four-person dormitory group chat, which greatly agitated another girl who was studying in the library.

"So handsome! Ahhhhhh!"

"Stop being a fangirl. This kind of guy is handsome and considerate. He's one in a million. Shen Yue has good taste."
