"Is it really Elon Musk, the one who launched the spaceship?"
Ma Xiaoshuai and the others looked surprised.
"Old Chen, when did you meet him?"
Chen smiled and said, "It's also a coincidence. The first two times I came to the United States, it was through an amazing introduction that I met Musk."
“He was having trouble getting funding at the time, so I helped him invest some money.”
Luo Wenjie's eyes widened.
"What do you mean?"
"Brother, you even invested in Musk?"
"So you were the mysterious investor the media was talking about?"
The people nearby were puzzled.
"What do you mean?"
Luo Wenjie explained to everyone with an incredulous look on his face.
"For the past two days, the American media has been reporting that Musk is on his way out. His spacecraft project is a scam, and many people are watching him make a fool of himself."
"His spacecraft failed in its first few test launches. So the entire American media was waiting to see him make a fool of himself."
"During that period, Musk went around begging for investment, but those investors either refused to see him or simply rejected him outright."
"Just when everyone thought Musk was going to go bankrupt, he suddenly found a huge investment from somewhere and then used the money to launch a new round of spacecraft tests."
"Hey, who would have thought that test launch would actually be a success? It shocked the entire United States. All the mainstream media around the world reported on it."
"After that successful test launch, Musk was never short of money again. Investors practically waved checks at him and begged him to invest. Even the US government invested in him..."
Brother Jie stared blankly at Chen Ge.
"So that mysterious investor was you, Brother Ge."
"You saved Musk's life."
Chen smiled and shook his head.
"It's not that big of a deal. It's just a coincidence."
Su Qing looked at Chen Qi curiously and asked, "You must have known about Musk's background when you invested, right?"
"You dared to invest in that situation? What exactly made you willing to invest in him?"
Everyone looked at Chen, equally curious about this question.
Chen picked up his wine glass, took a sip, and said with a smile.
"Actually, it was his speech that moved me."
"Well, I think Musk is a natural speaker. His speeches are very inspiring, uplifting, and captivating."
"And he said something to me at the time that I felt coincided with my own thoughts."
"What did he say?" everyone asked curiously.
Chen smiled and said, "He said that rich people have so much money, but they spend their whole lives just messing around on Earth, with luxury cars, mansions, beautiful women, and high status. It's really meaningless."
"People who are rich should have a long-term vision. In this life, we should always try to do some meaningful things."
"For example, I could ride a bicycle on the moon or settle down on Mars in my lifetime..."
"Riding a bicycle on the moon..."
Su Qing murmured something under her breath, her eyes flickering.
I have to say, this statement is both incredibly sci-fi and incredibly romantic.
When Su Qing looked at Chen again, her eyes softened even more.
This is one of the things she admires about Chen Ji immensely.
Even though Chen already owns such a large business and has such wealth.
But Chen never stopped, and never gave up his ambition.
While everyone else was still figuring out how to keep their wealth soaring, Chen was already dreaming about even more futuristic things.
Which woman wouldn't fall for a man like that?
...
On the way back to the hotel after dinner, instead of taking a car, the group strolled along the main street as they walked back.
When passing by several scenic spots, the ladies would stop to take photos and check in.
Wu Di held his wife Zhou Na's hand, glancing behind him several times.
At the back of the crowd, Su Qing and Chen Qi walked at the very back, chatting in hushed tones.
He was about to return to China and wanted to find an opportunity to talk to Su Qing alone.
Deep down, Wu Di no longer had any feelings for Su Qing.
Without feelings, there's only regret.
However, as his first love, Su Qing was different from other women in Wu Di's heart.
Their status is, after all, special.
Wu Di doesn't blame anyone else; he only regrets his own youthful ignorance at the time that things have come to this.
Therefore, Wu Di wanted to have a private talk with the other party before leaving.
It doesn't mean anything else.
It's just a simple expression of concern.
Ask the other person how they are doing working and living here, and whether they are adapting well.
After all, Wu Di's life has been full of ups and downs, and he has long since come to terms with everything.
Even though they had broken up, he didn't want his relationship with Su Qing to become like that of strangers.
At least, we're still friends.
He glanced behind him several times.
Unfortunately, Su Qing was walking with Chen Ji the whole time.
In fact, Wu Di was able to notice this through these observations.
Su Qing seems to have a crush on Chen.
However, he couldn't think too deeply about such things, nor would he seek confirmation from Old Chen.
After all, Old Chen was from a completely different world compared to these book lovers.
If it weren't for the fact that when we went to university, we all happened to be assigned to the same dorm room.
Wu Di felt that he would never have the chance to sit down and have a meal with Lao Chen in his lifetime.
It's perfectly normal for women to admire and have feelings for an outstanding man like Lao Chen.
Wu Di didn't complain much.
I only felt a slight sense of nostalgia for the game.
"What's wrong? What are you thinking about?"
His wife, Zhou Na, asked with a smile.
Wu Di was taken aback and quickly shook his head.
"No, it's nothing. I drank too much last night. My head is a little dizzy."
Zhou Na said coquettishly, "I told you to drink less, but you wouldn't listen."
"I'll make you some tea when we get back to the hotel. I also have some hangover medicine in my suitcase; I prepared it for you before we came."
Wu Di looked at his wife and felt a surge of emotion.
I couldn't help but hold the other person's hand with my fingers.
"Wife, thank you."
Zhou Na blushed and glanced shyly to the side, afraid of being seen by others nearby.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Aren't you afraid of being laughed at if people hear you?"
Wu Di's lips curled up slightly.
yes.
He already has such a wonderful woman as Zhou Na.
Why create unnecessary trouble for yourself?
At that moment, Wu Di suddenly had a change of heart.
He completely gave up the idea of talking to Su Qing alone.
Put down your burdens, travel light, and cherish the people in front of you.
He was grateful that Zhou Na appeared during the lowest point of his life and saved him from dire straits.
"Everyone here is so successful, do you regret marrying me?"
Wu Di chuckled and made a joke.
Zhou Na was taken aback for a moment, then chuckled softly.
"The most valuable thing in a person is to be content. If I hadn't married you, I would never have come into contact with this kind of circle, nor would I have had the opportunity to come to America."
"Everyone has their own way of life, and I think our lives are pretty good right now."
Wu Di's lips curled up slightly.
"Yes, it's fine."
