Chapter 74 Attempt 4
So while Zhang Wei was waiting for Leida's reply, he was also thinking about how to market the website and let everyone know about it.
Simply advertising still costs money, and Thanksgiving might be a good opportunity.
A full week passed before Leida called her back. It turned out that he had a project to complete recently and was quite busy, so he printed out her plan and didn't read it in time. However, one of his classmates saw it and was interested in it.
If Zhang Wei doesn't mind, you can contact him. He said that this classmate is also from Country A and is very interested in online shopping.
When Zhang Wei was discussing with Paris and others whether to contact this classmate, Charles found her and Namier when he returned home.
"Ryan Davis said he wants to talk to you about collaborating on your website. What do you think?"
Zhang Wei and Namier looked at each other, who?
"Leida's friend," Charles reminded.
"Oh! Why does he want to see you?" Zhang Wei was a little suspicious of his purpose.
"He expressed his position that there will be no unfair conditions just because you are young."
This Ryan Davis doesn't seem to be an ordinary person. Charles actually helped him pass on the message.
Charles continued, "He's the son of a partner. I've met him a few times before. He's pretty smart. I think you might consider him."
When Zhang Wei heard him say this, it was like she had done some background checks for them and gave some assurances, but she didn't agree immediately:
"Then let's talk to him, so that we can show our sincerity."
In fact, Zhang Wei was relieved to get this result. The worst option was to ask Charles for help, but Zhang Wei felt that the value created by the website in the future might not be as much as the value created by Charles' help, which would be a loss.
Next, let’s see what Ryan says. I hope he really likes this project.
Charles said Ryan would be returning to New York City soon, and they could arrange a time to meet then.
Then one weekend afternoon, Zhang Wei, Paris, Namier and Dora met with Ryan Davis.
Originally, Zhang Wei wanted to find a nearby coffee shop, as it was inconvenient to invite someone he was not familiar with to his home. As a result, Charles said he could lend them an office.
In this way, Zhang Wei went to Charles Company for the first time.
Because this was their first business meeting, Paris wore a blazer to appear more formal. Zhang Wei also combed Namir's fluffy curly hair with hair oil and made him wear a vest.
She also wore a navy blue college-style pleated skirt suit, and combed her hair back into a princess style without bangs, revealing her clear eyebrows and smooth forehead.
Dora's companions, who were watching, said, "I didn't expect it to be so formal. Sorry!"
"No, your outfit is fine, you look pretty much like us."
Zhang Wei looked at her black vest, the white floral collared shirt underneath, and the grey knee-length skirt, and thought there was nothing wrong with it, as the colours matched theirs well.
Grace was unable to attend the event because she had to attend the launch of a new product of a brand of dolls.
After they met up at Wilson's house, they were taken to the company by the family driver, Uncle Carl. Charles said that when they arrived at the door, someone would pick them up and take them upstairs.
Charles' company headquarters is located in the financial center of the Isle of Man, which is some distance away from where the Wilsons live. It took them almost an hour to reach their destination.
After Uncle Carl stopped the car, he did not let them get out immediately. Instead, he talked to Charles first. Then, not long after, a short-haired white female secretary opened the door to take them in.
Zhang Wei saw that she knew Uncle Karl and knew that they were sent by Charles, and she called out their names accurately:
"Hello, Namir, Vera, Paris, Dora. Mr. Charles asked me to take you to the office. Someone is waiting for you."
Paris took it upon himself to make the connection: "Okay, thank you. Let's go!"
Then they entered the dozens-story building next door. It was Zhang Wei's first time to visit a commercial office building in Country A, so he couldn't help but look around.
It should be said that except Paris, everyone else was very curious about what was inside.
However, it is not rush hour now, so there are not many people in the hall. But it is obvious that the adults find it strange that several children are here together, so they are looking at each other, which is a bit funny.
Apart from the people inside, Zhang Wei felt that it was not much different from the commercial buildings she had visited before. Moreover, the people here did not have the sense of urgency of office workers in China, and the style was still a little different.
They took the elevator directly to the 20th floor. The secretary led them through an office area. Zhang Wei heard someone exclaim:
"Wow! Where are these kids from?!"
However, the secretary took them straight to an office without even looking at them, where a young boy who looked Latino and had a dark complexion was waiting.
"Hey, kids... uh... I didn't expect you to be so young." Ryan looked at them in surprise.
"I heard from Leida that his brother is in middle school. Sorry!" Then his eyes wandered among Zhang Wei and the others, obviously undecided who was the leader.
Paris stood up and introduced herself, extending her hand: "Hello, I'm Paris Lin."
Ryan shook his hand: "Hello, I'm Ryan Davis."
Zhang Wei and the others followed suit:
"Hello, I'm Vera Wilson"
"I am Namiel Wilson"
"I am Dora Hilton"
Ryan also immediately adjusted his state and got straight to the point:
"Nice to meet you! I've carefully read your proposal and I'm very interested in it. I wonder what stage you've reached now?"
Zhang Wei has always been in charge of the overall planning, so she immediately responded:
"Now that we have our website built and some stock, there's only one small step left before our website is up and running!"
She thought it would be best not to let the other party know their weaknesses first, so she used some Spring and Autumn style of writing.
When Namier and the others heard Zhang Wei's words, they all looked at her in surprise.
Zhang Wei: Could you please not be so honest...
Fortunately, the children did not interrupt her. They immediately realized what was happening and nodded in agreement.
"Oh, so that's how it is."
Ryan smiled, his dark pupils made his eyes look particularly deep.
"So what kind of help did you ask Leida to provide?"
"Well, we knew this website would be a success. As our big brother, we also wanted him to share in our success, so we asked him to get involved."
It seems that Leida didn't tell him, Zhang Wei blinked and said sincerely.
But she thought in her heart that this man had been testing her all the time and was indeed a man of business potential.
