Chapter 542: Accidentally Going Wrong
In the brightly lit 302, Cao Guangyu was pacing back and forth in the dormitory with a solemn expression, walking from the balcony to the door, and then from the door to the balcony.
He just read a post online that included a photo of Lao Jiang eating in the cafeteria.
Damn, it’s over, he probably really is back.
He refunded tens of millions and endorsed himself. Now the internet is full of news about him, and countless young netizens are imitating him. This is really annoying.
In the past, I always managed to withstand the pressure with my 1.80-meter-tall body, but I guess I can’t do it this time.
Young Master Cao was jealous to death. He also liked to show off, but he had never pretended to be in such a grand scene even in his dreams. He felt uneasy just thinking about it.
"Brother Cao, why don't you just go out and hide, and come back in the middle of the night."
"Or, use some tools to physically offset the magic."
Zhou Chao reached out and picked up the wide tape specially prepared for Cao Guangyu: "Wrap it around his mouth and he won't respond. Wrap it around his ears and he won't listen to anything!"
Master Cao: “…”
At this moment, Zhang Guangfa from next door suddenly pushed the door open and walked in, poking his head in: "Anyone playing cards?"
"Fight, go to your dormitory and fight."
"Ah? Can't we do it in your dormitory? I've got the cards here."
"There is a vicious dog inside, please do not approach."
"?"
Zhang Guangfa heard that Jiang Qin had returned, so he came over to play cards and get on good terms with Jiang Qin. However, he was immediately pushed out of the dormitory by Lao Cao and taken to 303.
Zhuang Chen was also in the dormitory. After seeing Cao Guangyu, he snorted coldly and changed his posture to face the wall.
Previously, it was reported online that the group buying funding chain was broken. Zhuang Chen had spoken out in the cafeteria and made suggestions, but was ridiculed by Young Master Cao.
Later, Jiang Qin's three-step plan completely reversed the trend of the situation and dealt him a severe blow from a distance, which made him embarrassed to see Jian Chun for several days, for fear of being ridiculed by her roommates. As a result, he is now extremely dark inside and thinks everyone he sees is an idiot.
Of course, the stupidest ones are the bosses of other group buying websites.
Jiang Qin is just a college student, and he can't even handle this. I don't know how they managed to make their business so big.
Zhuang Chen felt that if it were him, grassroots companies like Pintuan, which were hatched from universities, would not be worth mentioning at all.
He will do this first, then that, and finally this and that. The entire market will be unified, and all merchants and consumers will be taken over. There will be no place for group buying.
When he thought of this, Zhuang Chen really wanted to go down and show them his skills.
This feeling of "I can do it, so I can do it" made him unable to suppress his urge to start a business.
But he once saved 5,000 yuan and tried to start a business. As a result, he now has three boxes of mooncakes under his bed that are about to expire.
Choosing the wrong track actually has nothing to do with ability. Zhuang Chen has always felt this way, because it is like taking a wrong start and there is no chance for him to show his talent.
If he could choose a promising track again and add enough capital, he felt that his achievements would not be inferior to Jiang Qin's current ones.
I have talent, but I just lack an opportunity to prove myself...
At the same time, Jiang Qin had leisurely returned to Room 302. The first thing he did after entering the door was to lock it, and then he called out Young Master Cao's name.
"Master, where is the Master? I miss you so much!"
Ren Ziqiang and Zhou Chao looked at it and thought, wow, he really had a big secret and even locked the door. He was afraid that Brother Cao would run away! "Brother Jiang, Brother Cao went out to play." Ren Ziqiang responded.
Jiang Qin was slightly stunned: "Didn't he just send me a message asking me when I would be back? I thought he couldn't wait."
"Uh, he just left."
"I see. You're hiding from me. Oh, I wanted to share the joy of victory with him. I didn't expect that the young master is a good brother who doesn't seek fame or gain. He can share the hardships, but he doesn't seem to want to share the joys."
Jiang Qin pulled out a chair and sat down, throwing his backpack on the table.
From freshman to senior year, his business grew bigger and bigger, but every major event always ended with Lao Cao's witness. This has become a habit over the years.
Without Lao Cao, no matter how great the success is, it seems that we will not be happy.
Hmm, I think I have a spare?
Jiang Qin suddenly stood up and said, "I'm going to take a walk around the dormitory next door."
Zhou Chao held his breath and watched Jiang Qin leave. Then he turned around and glanced at Ren Ziqiang: "Brother Cao seems to be unable to escape this time."
"My condolences."
Jiang Qin walked out of the dormitory and went to Room 303. As soon as he entered the room, he went to look for Zhang Guangfa. Unexpectedly, he saw Cao Guangyu: "Huh? Why are you both here? Double happiness?"
Cao Guangyu reached out and took out his cell phone: "Chaozi, why don't you give me the tape..."
Zhang Guangfa was also a person who only remembered to eat but not to fight. He patted the chair with clear eyes and said, "Boss Jiang, do you want to play cards with me?"
"Just fight, I'll share with you the joy of my trip to Kyoto."
“…”
Many people in the school have seen the advertisement and understand that group buying is being targeted, but they don’t know the details of how Jiang Qin operated it.
For example, after he refunded everyone, the entire venue suddenly became a mess. When an advertisement came out, all opponents panicked and started crisis public relations, and finally they were criticized and closed the comment section.
He sat still as a mountain, with the corner of his mouth curled up, watching the signing conference collapse. A text message was sent out, all the joint posters were posted, and the entire market was in chaos.
Zhang Guangfa wiped his face with his hand, then looked at Young Master Cao. He felt so excited that his scalp was tingling, and he could only breathe in but not out.
After listening to this, Zhuang Chen still faced the wall, feeling completely disdainful.
Again, if he were to go on stage, it would not be Jiang Qin's turn to give orders here.
"Boss Jiang, this incident has caused such a big stir. People on the Internet are saying that group buying is being targeted. But who is targeting you?"
"On the surface, they are competitors such as Dianping, Lashou, Nuomi, and Wowo, but behind the scenes, they are mainly led by Ali Baba and Tencent."
Jiang Qin pursed his lips and said, "They have always wanted to invest, but I rejected them. This time they are playing a propaganda war to force me to cut off my funding chain and leave me with nowhere to go. Unfortunately, their tactics were not good enough and they still failed."
"Fuck, Tencent and Alibaba?"
Zhang Guangfa held his breath because of the sizzling and was a little afraid to breathe.
Young Master Cao looked at him with despair, thinking, "Ask, ask, ask, I know it, the previous ones are just appetizers, the last one is the key!" To be honest, if it was just what he just said, it wouldn't be that powerful. After all, they have never experienced industry exchange conferences, signing conferences, dinners, and it's hard to imagine them.
But Alibaba and Tencent know about it and have even been using their products.
QQ, Taobao, and even CF, which they have always been obsessed with.
In the minds of ordinary college students, these two companies are giant enterprises and are at the ceiling level.
Being specifically targeted by these two giants was a reference that truly made them feel Jiang Qin's current status.
Beep, beep.
At this moment, Zhuang Chen suddenly found a pop-up window on his mobile phone, which was a QQ message from Jian Chun.
"Are you there?"
Zhuang Chen was slightly stunned, and it took her a while to react. It was Jian Chun who took the initiative to find her: "I'm here, Chunchun, what's the matter?"
Jian Chun: "Nothing, just asking what you are doing."
"I'm lying in bed, and you?"
"Me too."
After Jian Chun sent these three words, he added, "I saw people in the group saying that Jiang Qin is back. Is that true? Is he in the dormitory?"
Zhuang Chen's face froze, and after a long silence, he continued typing: "Yes, I'm back."
"Take two pictures and show them to me."
"?"
Zhuang Chen thought for a moment, lifted his hair with his hand, turned the camera, took a selfie and sent it.
Jian Chun: “…”
Zhuang Chen sent a silly smiley face: "I've been lying in bed for too long, my hair doesn't look good."
"I'm not talking about you. I'm asking you to take a picture of Jiang Qin for me."
"Why take a picture of him?" Zhuang Chen's head suddenly buzzed, finding it hard to accept.
Jian Chun replied very quickly, a speed that Zhuang Chen had never seen before: "It's not what I want, it's Qingqing who wants to see it. Please help me, we are friends, how about this, I can agree to one of your requests."
Zhuang Chen's breathing quickened for a moment: "Really?"
"Um."
"Then have dinner with me alone tomorrow!" Zhuang Chen made a very excessive request.
Jian Chun sent an OK emoticon: "Go take the photo."
Zhuang Chen hesitated for a moment, then took three photos of Jiang Qin's back and sent them to Jian Chun, feeling an inexplicable annoyance and sadness in his heart.
However, Jian Chun seemed dissatisfied and asked him for a front-facing photo.
Zhuang Chen had no choice but to pretend to go to the bathroom. He took a few photos of Jiang Qin from the front and sent them to Jian Chun.
"Thank you. I'll be busy now."
"?"
Zhuang Chen looked at Jian Chun's message and couldn't help but frowning. His eyes became more confused. "Aren't you already lying in bed? What are you busy with?"
After the message was sent, there was no reply for a long time.
At this time, the card game in 303 had ended, and the sounds of pulling tables and moving chairs continued to be heard. Zhang Guangfa picked up the melon seed shells and walked towards the trash can at the foot of the wall. When passing the balcony, he glanced at Zhuang Chen, a little confused.
"Your brows are a little green again tonight."
"fart!"
Zhuang Chen felt as if he had been punched in the heart, and he was filled with indescribable irritation.
Zhang Guangfa felt that Jiang Qin must have played a trick on him tonight, so it was normal for him to have a bit of temper, so he pursed his lips, said nothing, and turned around to throw away the trash.
At this moment, Zhuang Chen suddenly made a decision in his heart.
He originally wanted to accompany Jian Chun to continue his studies, but now he has changed his mind. He doesn't want to continue his studies anymore. He wants to go home and start his own business.
"We will meet in the business world in the future."
"?"
Jiang Qin was about to leave when he was slightly startled by Zhuang Chen's cold oath: "Which city is Shanghai?"
Cao Guangyu frowned: "I don't know, maybe it's his hometown."
