Chapter 166 Love Me, Are You Afraid?
Sun Haolin finally left the Light Chaser base with a rage.
Chen Jianghe thought that the top management of 9527 would respond soon, but to his surprise, not only was everything calm for a period of time, but branches in Foshan, Dongguan and other places also warmly welcomed the "friendly forces" of the Light Chasers to move in and jointly develop the market , even the company's Shenzhen headquarters did the same.
"It should be that Penguin Group has put some pressure on the top management. This risky move has won the game for now."
Chen Jianghe let out a long sigh, reached out and pinched the secretary's cheek. She bit her lower lip with a smile and lowered her head.
As April approached and the weather got warmer, the eight city legions of Light Chasers gradually gained a foothold in their respective cities, especially the Shenzhen legion led by . They were unstoppable from the start, with the number of orders signed per day soaring from a dozen to hundreds, surpassing the former performance benchmark of eastern Guangdong.
The expansion momentum in Foshan and Dongguan is also very strong. The two major armies are secretly competing with the salesmen of the local branches, working overtime and working until they are exhausted.
Other cities are smaller in size and have mediocre performance, but the competition is relatively less, and local consumption is not high. Salesmen who can sign one order a day can live a better life than their colleagues in first-tier cities.
However, for Chen Jianghe, no matter how booming the takeout group buying business is, it is just a job with limited income. The real place to make money quickly is the stock market.
The A-share market as a whole continued to strengthen in April, with the Shanghai and Shenzhen indices constantly hitting new historical highs, and an average monthly increase of more than 20%.
The Hong Kong stock market also saw a strong rise, with all indexes closing significantly higher at the end of April than at the end of March.
Driven by this, Chen Jianghe’s account funds once exceeded 10 million.
He spent his money quickly, as he came in and spent it quickly. He invested 1.6 million in Shen Congrong's cross-border e-commerce website, spent 1.2 million to open a through train for Xu Zhixi's online store, and gave Jiang Yishu 500,000 as operating funds for her Amazon store. In just a few moves, he had emptied most of his A-share funds.
Among the three investments, Xu Zhixi's online store achieved the fastest results. In April, the single store's transaction volume exceeded one million. Although it is in a loss-making state, it has successfully created a hit product, and profitability is only a matter of time.
"Chen Jianghe!"
On April 29, a microeconomics class had just ended. Chen Jianghe and his roommates walked out of the teaching building, chatting and laughing. They were discussing going to the Internet cafe to relax after lunch when they suddenly heard someone calling him.
Chen Jianghe looked up and saw the person who called him standing under a phoenix tree not far from the entrance of the teaching building and waving at him. It was Xu Zhixi.
The newly blooming poinciana flowers were as bright red as fire. Xu Zhixi was wearing a simple white dress with her long hair draped over her shoulders. The lively flowers and her extremely beautiful face complemented each other, just like the warm sunshine in April, so bright that the boys and girls passing by couldn't help but take a few glances at her.
"Third brother, why are you still standing there? Come on!"
Sun Tian, the sixth oldest in the dormitory, exerted force on Chen Jianghe's waist, pushing him down twelve steps in a row, and rushed towards Xu Zhixi who was standing under the tree like a gust of wind.
The roommates first pretended that they saw nothing and walked away with big strides. But after they walked away, they looked back every few steps, wanting to see if Chen Jianghe had come up to them.
"Stop, stop."
Xu Zhixi raised her hand to stop him. At this moment, she was in a typical state of waiting for her boyfriend. She was afraid that he would not come, and she was also afraid that he would mess around...
Fortunately, Chen Jianghe knew how to restrain himself in public. He braked steadily and stopped in front of Xu Zhixi, looking at her with a smile: "Pretty girl, were you calling me just now?"
"Are you Chen Jianghe?" Xu Zhixi asked him with a smile.
"No." Chen Jianghe shook his head and said seriously: "Chen Jianghe was my former name. I have changed my name to Handsome Boy now."
Xu Zhixi covered her lips and smiled, saying, "You just ran towards me, and I thought you were a poop."
Hearing this, Chen Jianghe stared at Xu Zhixi in amazement, and said with a heartache: "Teacher Xu, you have no heart."
"Hmph." Xu Zhixi snorted and whispered in his ear: "It's blocked by my breasts, so you can't see it."
"Wow, when did you become so naughty?" Chen Jianghe looked at her in surprise and stretched out his hand: "As a people's teacher, is it really okay for you to be so naughty? Let me feel your conscience."
"Asshole..." Xu Zhixi quickly hid far away. She was just joking, but Chen Jianghe was a fool.
She ran away, he chased...
"Wait, let's get down to business."
Xu Zhixi couldn't run anymore.
Chen Jianghe also stopped and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Accompany me to the lecture at CUHK." Xu Zhixi said.
"Hmm?" Chen Jianghe raised his eyebrows.
Xu Zhixi took out two tickets from her handbag and said to Chen Jianghe with a smile, "Academician Li Guangnan's lecture is very rare. I asked Teacher Tao to get two tickets for you. It just so happens that you don't have classes this afternoon, so come with me."
Chen Jianghe smiled but said nothing. This was the first time that Teacher Xu had taken the initiative to ask him out. If he rejected her directly, she would definitely be very unhappy.
But if I agree, what if I meet Jiang Yishu when I go to CUHK?
Chen Jianghe and Jiang Yishu were quite high-profile in CUHK before, and many people knew him. The risks of going to a lecture with Teacher Xu can be imagined.
He's not ready yet.
"Don't you want to go?"
Seeing that Chen Jianghe had not yet expressed his opinion, Xu Zhixi asked softly.
"Yeah." Chen Jianghe nodded first, then said, "Compared to attending a lecture, I would rather watch a movie with you. If I can choose the time, I hope it's a midnight show."
"Ah?" Xu Zhixi's eyes flickered, she pursed her lips, and asked him with a slightly red face: "What do you want to do?"
"What do you think?" Chen Jianghe asked back.
"Don't..." Xu Zhixi blushed, raised her hand and gently hit him, saying: "You are such a bad guy, I'm telling you something serious, but you always turn to something in an improper direction."
Chen Jianghe said innocently: "I don't want to be like this either. My wife is pretty, what can I do? I can't help myself, I can't control my emotions, I have no choice, emotions..."
"Okay." Xu Zhixi interrupted, put away the two tickets, and said, "I promise you, let's go to the movie."
"But the midnight show definitely won't work, let's look at other shows."
Xu Zhixi is very principled. She indulges him but also knows how to keep a proper sense of propriety.
"As you wish."
Chen Jianghe nodded in agreement and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Will you go home on May Day?" Xu Zhixi asked.
"Yes." Chen Jianghe smiled and asked her, "Do you want to go back with me?"
Xu Zhixi shook her head and said, "Come to my dormitory before you go home. I bought some things for my parents. You can take them back. It was really wrong for you to go there empty-handed ."
"What should or shouldn't we do? Why do we have to talk about different things when we're one family?" Chen Jianghe smiled indifferently and said, "My parents are happier to see you than if they had won the lottery."
"Huh, that sounds nice, but who knows if you've brought other girls home?"
Xu Zhixi was very happy in her heart, but she snorted and warned him, "You are becoming more and more powerful now. Many girls in the school regard you as their idol. There are more and more discussions about you in the student forums. You must keep yourself clean to avoid gossip flying around."
Chen Jianghe glanced at Xu Zhixi and said, "I thought you didn't care about me, but I didn't expect that you would actually stare at the student forum every day?"
"Are you scared?" Xu Zhixi asked with a smile.
"I'm scared." Chen Jianghe waved his hands and said, "I'll go find other female classmates. I can't afford to offend a beautiful teacher."
