Before Jiang Chao could ask a question, Chen Lu took out his phone and started looking up information he had found in his notes app.
"There's an independent game development competition in Hangzhou recently, and only college students can sign up to participate."
He said earnestly, "As long as we can get a decent ranking, we can apply for our school's entrepreneurship fund."
There's a full 100,000 yuan.
"Then, if we work hard, we'll definitely be able to apply for free space at our school's entrepreneurship incubation base."
"By doing this repeatedly, we can save a lot of money."
Jiang Chao was stunned for a moment before he realized that Chen Lu had all the plans but no one to carry them out.
"Then where are the people we need?"
Although Chen Lu knows a little about programming, he doesn't understand it at all. He originally intended to be a financial backer and invest money.
Chen Lu didn't take it seriously at all. "It's easy to find people who need it. I know a little programming and can barely count as half. We can find a few more from the college next door later."
He turned and leaned against the railing, saying softly:
"This doesn't cost much. You might not be able to find migrant workers with 2,000 yuan a month, but you can definitely find college students."
“Some people might not even be able to spend two thousand. Before discussing salary, let’s talk to them about their dreams first!”
“There will definitely be young people like you who will decide to join us on a whim.”
How can you start a business if you can't even make empty promises?
As long as you have the ability to make the promises you make, that's enough. Even if you don't want to be a great philanthropist, you definitely don't want to be someone who makes empty promises while delaying payment.
Jiang Chao thought for a long time before he could fully understand all of Chen Lu's plans.
He was both relieved that he had managed to get Chen Lu on board, and also somewhat lamented that he would never catch up with Chen Lu in this lifetime.
He threw the half-smoked cigarette butt on the ground and stomped on it. "Damn! You're fucking nasty!"
Jiang Chao realized at that moment that if Chen Lu wanted to, he could be exactly the kind of person Chen Lu was talking about.
It even has to be the kind of ultimate swindler who's eager to throw money at you.
We all have a head on our necks, so how can there be such a big difference between people?
Chen Lu scoffed, "Don't talk nonsense. As long as this succeeds, they'll be the elders. How could we treat them unfairly?"
As for those who might make a quick buck and then run away, Chen Lu doesn't care. As long as the basic framework remains the same, the screws can always be replaced.
You do the work, I pay you. It's a one-time transaction; we don't talk about feelings.
Jiang Chao nodded knowingly, then asked, "So what's my job? Am I responsible for paying for it?"
He suddenly felt that he still needed to sell the car and make more money, otherwise Chen Lu's plan could obviously work without him, which was a bit discouraging.
Chen Lu found it amusing, “You’ll definitely have to put in some money like I did. You’re the second-in-command, so I’ll delegate all the things I don’t have time to handle in the early stages, including odd jobs.”
"Once the business grows bigger, you'll be the planner. Your impulsive personality is perfect for that."
Of course, being thick-skinned is also a good trait. After all, this position inevitably involves getting scolded a lot.
Jiang Chao chuckled, "Okay!"
Actually, he just wants to be able to play games with everyone; he doesn't really care about how much he gets or what position he gets.
Ultimately, he just wanted to make up for the regret of having his college application forcefully changed by his father.
He was well aware that he didn't have Chen Lu's perseverance and ability to learn programming on his own, and he was already quite satisfied with the current situation.
Chen Lu scrolled through his phone screen, checking his plan one last time before slowly closing it.
"That's how it is. If you can't even do this, there's no point in selling your car and investing so much money in it," he said earnestly.
Looking at Chen Lu's organized and focused demeanor, and recalling the pile of books about the gaming industry on Chen Lu's bed, Jiang Chao sniffed and said, "Chen Lu, thank you."
He knew that Chen Lu chose to be with him not only because he was moved by Liang Zhirou's actions, but also because he wanted to join in on some silly antics.
Otherwise, with his abilities, he could do whatever he wanted to start a business, and there would be no need for him to play games with me.
"You're disgusting." Chen Lu gagged twice, then a smile appeared on his face. "You're welcome. After all, I'm your father."
"The competition is at the end of June, and we'll be busy right away. Anyway, we can discuss everything, but I'll make the final decisions, is that okay?"
The better the relationship, the more important it is to clarify certain things. This way, even if things don't go smoothly in the future, it won't hurt the relationship too much.
Seeing Jiang Chao nod slightly, Chen Lu smiled again, "When it's settled, we'll be President Chen and President Jiang."
If it doesn't work out, then we're just Chen and Jiang.
"Can't you say something auspicious?" Jiang Chao cursed angrily.
Chen Lu thought for a moment and finally decided to use a more serious approach, "There's plenty of time in the future, President Jiang."
Jiang Chao leaned closer to him with a serious expression, glanced around discreetly, and asked in a low voice, "Who is Fang Chang?"
"......"
......
Since Li Sinian said he was preparing for the civil service exam and Zheng Haoyu was preparing for the postgraduate entrance exam, only Chen Lu and Jiang Chao ate barbecue outside in the entire dormitory.
To be honest, Chen Lu was still a little dazed and melancholy when he received the messages from the two of them.
Although graduation is not officially scheduled until the senior year, it seems that everyone starts to go their separate ways after the junior year.
The day of parting is drawing ever closer.
It was nearly 10 p.m. when the two returned to their dormitory.
There are hardly any people around the dormitory. As June approaches, you can hear the chirping of insects from time to time. Summer nights in Hangzhou are not quiet. There are so many kinds of insects in the grass that you could open a museum.
Your beloved girl may not always be around you, but mosquitoes will.
Chen Lu helped Jiang Chao, and the two of them staggered towards the dormitory entrance.
He looked at his eldest son speechlessly, completely baffled as to why this guy had already downed a whole bottle in the time it took him to have a drink.
Is this how people with a high alcohol tolerance celebrate?!
"I, Jiang Chao... have only one brother like you in this life, that's enough, really." Jiang Chao put his arm around Chen Lu's shoulder and said indistinctly.
"Then call me 'Dad'," Chen Lu said speechlessly.
He wasn't drunk at all, because he simply didn't have the chance. How could he possibly keep up with Jiang Chao's drinking habits, which consisted of just one drink and a whole bottle?
As the two approached the dormitory entrance, they saw a beautiful girl squatting there.
She leaned against the closed dormitory door, hugged her knees tightly, and squatted silently under the doorway light, a stark contrast to her usual demeanor.
The light shone down on her from above, making her look somewhat forlorn.
