Dai Qiongying still believed in the saying "marrying someone of equal social standing." She thought that even if Chu Yu, a girl from the countryside, married into the family, she might feel pressured. If it really came to that, how could the marriage be happy?
"Look at the business plan that he wrote, and then look at Zuo Ran. They are both 18 years old and classmates. Zuo Ran almost failed to get into university. All he does is ask his family for money to go to Hong Kong to learn to play the guitar. Look at him!"
Dai Qiongying took out the project plan and flipped through it. She could understand the beginning, but the end was full of tables, bar charts, and translations of English documents.

No Party Secretary would be unwilling to invest in a long-term project. One project is worth one million, while the other is worth ten million over five to ten years. Even if it's just empty talk, Secretary Zuo would still acknowledge Chu Yu's foresight.
