Chapter 631: Why are you pretending to be such a big shot?
“Sometimes, human intuition is more reliable than data analysis. Data is static, but it changes constantly. The human brain understands the future direction of data more objectively than computers.”
Nodding, Mai Jiashan did not question the other party's reason, but instead affirmed it.
After a brief thought, Mai Jiashan came to his senses and remembered the purpose of inviting the other party to dine together, and couldn't help shaking his head and laughing.
Who would have thought that even though he was an experienced businessman, he would still be led by young people.
However, the other party did not answer, but the answer was very clear, and he did not force it.
The agency rights of a DNF cannot completely change the situation, so there is no need to focus only on this aspect.
"Uncle Mai, recently HardBank and Baidu are interested in letting Mingliu start the second round of financing. What do you think?"
Seeing that the other party did not ask about the transfer of DNF agency rights, Zhou Anan shifted the topic to another aspect.
With the good performance of Mingliu Group in various aspects and the last wave of Internet bubble in the domestic stock market, several investment institutions wanted to push Mingliu Group to go public and make a fortune.
Before going public, a second round of financing will be necessary, and the advantage of his shares will be weakened.
These are secondary, but knowing that there will be an irreversible crisis in the future, how could Zhou Anan allow Mingliu Group to go public at this critical juncture?
He didn't want the celebrity group he relied on to have only a short-lived glory.
"I support your idea. When we exchanged shares, I said that I would unconditionally support your team's decision."
The possible development of the North American subprime mortgage crisis had been discussed before, so Mai Jiashan naturally knew the other party's thoughts and just said something along the way.
Anyway, whether Mingliu Group goes public earlier or later, for him, it is just a symbol of wealth.
If what the other party said is true, the listing of Mingliu Group will not be of much help to TX, but it will instead result in the loss of this high-quality stock.
"Thank you Uncle Mai for your support."
With the other party's words, Zhou Anan no longer had to worry.
Excalibur Capital didn't say anything at all, and with the support of TX, the ideas of Hard Silver and Qiandu could be easily ignored.
At the beginning of the financing, these institutions signed a contract that they would not forcibly interfere with the management of Mingliu Group's original team.
What's more, he is the major shareholder who holds absolute controlling rights.
Anyway, Mingliu Group still has surplus liquidity, and with the hematopoietic function of its gaming companies, it is enough to support it for a long time.
"Okay, I won't interrupt your nightlife."
We basically finished talking about tonight's affairs. Mai Jiashan, who had stayed in Hangzhou for two days, had to rush back to Pengcheng, so he didn't stay long.
Although the purpose of coming here was not achieved, it was not a complete failure.
Perhaps he should listen to the other party's advice and sell the foreign stocks he holds as soon as possible.
"Next time I go to Pengcheng, I'll invite Uncle Mai for tea."
"Then I'll be waiting."
After parting with Mr. Mai, Zhou Anan checked the text messages on the mobile phone card that was used exclusively in Hangzhou, and selected two of them to reply.
More than ten minutes later, when Zhou Anan drove to the entrance of West Lake Yintai, two fellow schoolmates were already waiting there.
"Get in the car."
After temporarily stopping at the side of the road, Zhou Anan unlocked the car door, lowered the window and shouted.
"Senior, I am really sorry to trouble you."
After getting in the car, Lou Shuqing said somewhat embarrassedly.
The two of them did not go home during the National Day holiday. They just went shopping all day today and watched a movie at Yintai Cinema in the evening. At Shu Na's instigation, they called this fellow senior, but they didn't expect that the other party was actually in Hangzhou.
"It's alright, where are you going?"
Looking at personal trainer Lou, who was wearing a long-sleeved shirt and jeans, Zhou Anan's mind flashed with the impressive and flexible figure, and she quickly shook off the thought that had flashed through her mind.
For men, what they cannot get or have already lost will always make them restless.
"Senior, I'll treat you to some chestnuts. We agreed that we'd treat you to a midnight snack. I know there's a crayfish restaurant in the university town that's really good."
After putting away the bags of today's harvest, Shu Na peeled a chestnut and handed it to her, then talked about the suggestion she made during the previous phone call.
We can still afford to treat you to a meal of crayfish.
"OK."
After glancing at Shu, a schoolmate who liked to wear short skirts to show off her long legs, Zhou Anan ate the chestnut that seemed to have a fragrance and did not refuse the other party's treat.
After leaving the city, under the guidance of Shu Xuemei, who had a strong sense of direction, Zhou Anan drove to the edge of Xiasha New City.
Several rows of not-so-new residential buildings form a concentrated pedestrian zone in the suburbs, including a whole brightly lit night market street with many night snack stalls, and business seems to be pretty good.
"How did you know this place?"
After taking the chestnuts that Shu Xuemei had picked for the sixteenth time, Zhou Anan parked the car in an open space, looked at the old crayfish sign not far away, and asked curiously.
Generally speaking, ordinary students would not come to such a remote place.
"We picked up a tutor here. One time it was too late, so we packed some crayfish while waiting for the bus here. It was delicious."
When talking about her experience of discovering delicious food, Shu Na's face showed a little excitement.
After all, it is also a plus if a girl can earn her living expenses on her own.
"You guys also come out to tutor at night?"
After hearing what Shu said, Zhou Anan looked at the two other schoolmates who were both a little thin with some worry.
"We come here three times a week. On Saturdays, we come for half a day in the morning. On Mondays and Wednesdays, we come from 6pm and usually finish at 8pm, which is not too late. There happened to be two students living together, so we all come here together."
As if seeing the worry of her fellow senior, Lou Shuqing explained with a smile.
There is no way. The school they attend is one of the top second-tier schools, and the admission score is occasionally higher than the first-tier standard, but it is still a second-tier school.
Although there are not many first-class colleges in Xiasha University Town, there are quite a few.
Especially because of the reputation of Jiangnan University, many parents who have the means will give it priority before choosing other first-tier universities.
When it comes to these students from second-tier universities looking for tutoring jobs, they can only work in slightly remote places and get lower wages.
"Yes, we took a taxi together, it was safe. One of the students was a little slow in doing his homework that day, it was a special case."
Shu Na, who was standing by, also explained a few words.
"It's not safe for you two girls to be here so late at night. If you want a part-time job to earn a living, I can help you find one."
Zhou Anan was still very worried about the stories told by the two pretty school girls.
Although Hangzhou, as the provincial capital, has a very good public security, it is inevitable that there are some social scums among them who are attracted by the beauty of the two school girls and have evil intentions.
The world is neither lacking in kindness nor free of evil. Don't judge everyone's conscience based on your own kindness.
Just in case, Zhou Anan didn't want her personal tutor Lou from her previous life to encounter any danger.
"This is not a good idea. We have already promised the parents and have taught them for half a month. It would be embarrassing to refuse halfway."
After hearing about the arrangement made by her fellow senior, Lou Shuqing, who had already agreed to it with her parents, felt embarrassed to refuse.
Although the senior student's words were all for their consideration, one should always see things through to the end, which would undermine one's integrity.
"Ask the boys in your class if there are any willing to take over. If not, then ask the parents to find someone else. If you haven't received half a month's salary, take it if you can. If not, forget it, I'll make it up to you."
Without allowing Lou to refuse, Zhou Anan forced them to make the decision.
Even if Lou's personal trainer had always been good in the previous life, but in this life, his love experience was slightly changed by him. Who knows whether the other person's life trajectory will diverge.
There is no room for error when it comes to safety.
Otherwise, Zhou Anan will regret it for the rest of her life.
"this."
"Then we will follow the senior's arrangements. The parents have already paid us for the tutoring fee for the previous half month. After returning to school, we will ask other classmates if anyone is willing to take over."
Hearing the senior's domineering words, Shu Na stopped her best friend who was about to say something and responded with a smile.
"Well, for you girls, safety is more important than anything else."
Seeing that personal trainer Lou tacitly agreed without any rebuttal, Zhou Anan slowed down her tone and spoke tactfully to avoid any resentment in their hearts.
Sometimes, when girls become stubborn, boys really have no chance to deal with them.
"Thank you, Senior."
Feeling the sincere concern from his fellow senior, the confusion in Lou's heart was mostly dissipated and he expressed his gratitude.
"Senior, when we get a new job, I'll treat you to another meal."
Without saying too many words of thanks, Shu Na immediately found a new reason to see the other party and was very happy.
"Okay, I'll wait. Boss, give us a large portion of crayfish, with the head removed and slightly spicy, and another portion."
After ordering the dishes, Zhou Anan sat down at a semi-new square table and subconsciously looked at the surrounding environment and the diners.
It is similar to ordinary food stalls. Perhaps because Xiasha is in a period of large-scale development, many of the people who come here to eat are sturdy working-class people.
Some of the clothes were not very neat and had some mud on them, and it was obvious that they had just come down from the construction site.
Zhou Anan has no prejudice against dining with migrant workers. After all, they are a group of people worthy of respect, and the development of the city cannot be separated from their silent contributions.
"Let's go sit outside."
She didn't care, but Zhou Anan was worried that the smell of these migrant workers would affect the dining environment of the two girls.
There is no air conditioning, only an electric fan, and the air in the room is a bit turbid.
"OK."
Noticing a slightly strange smell in the room, Lou Shuqing and the other student stood up obediently and followed their fellow student to sit outside.
They had packed takeout twice before, both times standing outside, but they had never thought about what the dining environment would be like here.
"Why didn't you go back home for the National Day?"
Zhou Anan asked casually as she took a few tissues to help the two girls wipe the oily table.
Like some other food stalls that have the conditions, they will cover the table with disposable tablecloths, which saves a lot of trouble.
"On the 2nd and 3rd, we were all helping our private tutors with their homework, so we didn't go back."
"Really? If a girl works so hard to make money, she won't have a boyfriend."
"Senior, if you say that, I'll rely on you if I can't find a boyfriend in the future."
“.”
"You even pretend to wipe your food so clean when you eat. You go to a western restaurant to eat Western food, or a food stall. You come to a place like this to pick up girls, and you still pretend to be so high and mighty."
Just as Zhou Anan took the tissue for the second time to wipe the table in front of her, a sour voice came from the side.
