Chapter 261: We must find a few more valuable backers
"Third brother, do you know what it feels like to be single for a long time?"
On the way back to the dormitory, Sun Tian suddenly asked.
Chen Jianghe looked at the stray dog rummaging for food next to the trash can downstairs in the dormitory building, and responded thoughtfully: "Are all stray dogs on the roadside good-looking?"
Sun Tian was shocked and quickly denied it: "I'm not that perverted."
"Really?" Chen Jianghe was skeptical. Doesn't the term "single dog" mean that when you've been single for so long that even dogs won't let go?
"I think the dorm aunt is pretty and feminine. Every time I go in and out of the dormitory, I can't help but look at her twice."
Sun Tian glanced at the auntie who was sitting in the dormitory watching TV, and stretched out his hand to scratch his chest: "If I were as handsome as you, I would definitely muster up the courage to flirt with you."
"You are such a jerk."
Chen Jianghe laughed and scolded: "If you want to instigate me to flirt with my aunt as a live teaching, just say it directly. Why are you beating around the bush?"
Sun Tian smiled innocently. He couldn't hide his little thoughts from his third brother.
Chen Jianghe walked towards the dormitory building at a brisk pace. When he passed the dormitory management office, he turned to the dormitory management aunt and said, "Auntie, one of my roommates said that you are beautiful and very feminine. I want to know if you have a boyfriend."
The dormitory aunt looked up at Chen Jianghe and replied with a smile: "I don't have a boyfriend, but I have a husband."
"Oh, that's all right."
Chen Jianghe said: "My roommate is timid and wants to date you but is afraid that your husband will not agree, so he asked me to ask."
"The roommate you are talking about is Wang Yuanpeng, right?"
The dormitory manager smiled and said, "That kid is quite courageous. He always wants to ask me out for a midnight snack."
"Then do you agree?" Chen Jianghe asked.
"He is too young and not suitable," the dormitory manager replied.
"Indeed." Chen Jianghe nodded in agreement: "Auntie has seen the world."
The dormitory manager chuckled and said, "At my age, I have seen a lot of things in the world. Don't let your imagination run wild."
"Auntie, I'm not small." Chen Jianghe corrected.
"I've seen it long ago that you will become a great person ," said the dormitory manager.
"You have a good eye." Chen Jianghe smiled and said, "It's getting late. Auntie, go to bed early. I'll go back to the dormitory to review my lessons."
"Go ahead, go ahead."
The dormitory manager waved her hand gently.
Chen Jianghe turned around, put his arm around Sun Tian’s shoulder and walked towards the stairs.
"Third brother, when can I be like you, handsome, rich and sexy?" Sun Tian asked.
"Appearance is something given by your parents, it's difficult to deal with."
Chen Jianghe thought for a moment and said, "The money is easy to deal with. From a statistical point of view, we can just average my personal assets with your assets."
Sun Tian was stunned when he heard this, then shook his head and said, "Even a dog would shake his head if it heard such an average."
Chen Jianghe had originally planned to go find the secretary tonight, but after returning to the dormitory, he didn't want to move anymore, so he simply played Landlord with his roommates.
Sun Tian occupied Chen Jianghe's computer. On the surface, he was playing Fantasy Westward Journey, but in fact, his eyes were fixed on the QQ icon in the lower right corner of the screen, expecting it to make a "beeping" sound.
He felt extremely distressed as he received no response to the good night message he sent.
It was around 11:30 when QQ finally rang. It was Liu Ziyu's avatar flashing. Sun Tian was a little nervous, but clicked it with great anticipation.
The flaws do not outweigh the merits: "I'm going to take a shower, good night."
When Sun Tianchu saw the message, he felt quite happy, but then he thought something was wrong. The girl who told him last time that she was going to take a shower had not contacted him for several months after sending the message.
"Third brother, the girl said she was going to take a shower. What should I do?" Sun Tian turned to ask Chen Jianghe who was playing cards.
"Tell her to be careful of the slippery floor and not to drop the soap on the ground." Chen Jianghe said casually.
"Oh." Sun Tian said and did as he was told.
“Ding ding ding.”
As soon as the message was sent, Liu Ziyu replied with a few smirking emojis: "I use shower gel."
"Third brother, she said to use shower gel." Sun Tian asked for help again.
Chen Jianghe started with a one-on-three confrontation, and then said, "Reply to her with a specific scenario, 'No wonder I can always smell a faint fragrance when I run with you in the morning. What brand of shower gel do you use? Can boys use it?'"
"Fuck, you're an expert, Jiang He."
As soon as Chen Jianghe finished speaking, Liu Dongliang clapped his hands and exclaimed.
"Old Liu, don't get excited. Do you want to play against the third one? If you don't, I will beat you and Kaizi Chuntian." Chen Jianghe waved his hand.
"You can't afford to play Landlord against three people, so what's the point of that? I'll let you pass first, and you make the move, Kaizi." Liu Dongliang said.
Zhang Kai stared at him blankly and said, "I can't afford it."
"grass."
Liu Dongliang was dumbfounded.
Chen Jianghe threw all the cards away in one breath and spread his hands: "Give me the money!"
"There's no point in playing this game. I keep losing, and the landlord has no food left."
Liu Dongliang threw down the cards, handed the last pack of cigarettes on the bedside table to Chen Jianghe, stood up, patted his butt and left.
"Brother Kai, you don't have to give it to me."
Chen Jianghe waved his hand, picked up the pile of Double Happiness cigarettes on the table, and threw them happily on the bedside.
"How is it going?"
After Chen Jianghe collected the spoils, he moved closer to the computer desk and took a look at the QQ chat window between Sun Tian and Liu Ziyu.
"It seems okay." Sun Tian said uncertainly.
"It's really okay. I was about to take a shower and go to bed, but you talked me into not being sleepy anymore."
Chen Jianghe patted Sun Tian on the shoulder and encouraged him, "Keep going."
"Okay." Sun Tian nodded excitedly.
Chen Jianghe didn't say anything more. He went to the bathroom, took a hot bath, and then lay down on the bed to sleep.
The next day was Saturday, which was a good day for sleeping in, but Chen Jianghe still chose to get up early. At present, the Light Chaser was fighting fiercely with Nuomi Group Buying, Youxuan Group Buying and 9527 Company in the Yangtze River Delta, so he had to pay close attention to the situation.
After having breakfast in the cafeteria, Chen Jianghe went straight to the Light Chaser base.
"Sister Ping, why haven't you sent me yesterday's data report yet?"
The first thing Chen Jianghe did after logging into QQ on his work computer was to find Qin Tianping, president of the East China region, to get the data report.
Under normal circumstances, Qin Tianping should send the data to Chen Jianghe for review before seven in the morning, and then transfer it to the company's operations department for review and statistics.
However, it is already half past seven, but Chen Jianghe has not received the report in his mailbox, and the QQ message he sent has not received a response for half a day.
Chen Jianghe was getting a little impatient waiting, so he called directly to inquire about the situation.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Chen. I met with several leaders from Shanghai last night and drank too much."
Qin Tianping's voice was weak and she was trying hard to hold back the urge to vomit. She pursed her lips and continued, "I'll take my time and send you the report in a moment."
"You should take a rest first. It doesn't matter if the report is sent later." Chen Jianghe said sympathetically, "I'll assign you a few assistants who can drink well later, or you can recruit them yourself."
"Thank you, Mr. Chen."
Qin Tianping thanked him, hung up the phone immediately, covered her mouth and ran into the bathroom to vomit.
“The Yangtze River Delta is not an easy move.”
Chen Jianghe lit a cigarette. At present, Light Chaser has firmly established its foothold in the Pearl River Delta, with a market share close to 50%. Entering the Yangtze River Delta is an inevitable choice. However, judging from the recent data, Light Chaser's market expansion in the Yangtze River Delta has not been smooth, and the number of orders signed each day has not met the target.
It’s not that Qin Tianping and her team didn’t work hard enough, but the pressure from competitors was too great. The Light Chaser was hit hard before it could gain a foothold. What’s more, the opponent not only attacked from a commercial perspective, but also used local connections to find ways to trip them up.
Because of this, Qin Tianping, president of the East China region of Light Chaser, was often busy with social engagements as soon as he took office, and tried hard to build good relationships with his superiors to avoid "acclimatization".
"They are just pretending to flatter you at the dinner table. If you want to develop, you have to find some more valuable backers."
Chen Jianghe narrowed his eyes and thought carefully. Among the people he knew, there were roughly two who could help him find a backer. One was Lin Zheping and the other was Yang Wanying.
The stock market has been going down recently, and the property market has also started to fall into a downturn. I heard from the secretary that my father is worried about the sluggish sales rate of more than a dozen properties he owns, so Chen Jianghe does not intend to cause him trouble at this time. He even wants to take the time to give him some advice, to lower the price and get a head start, the sooner the better.
"Please review the investment income for the week, Mr. Chen."
Chen Jianghe was just about to find Yang Wanying, but she sent him an email first.
Chen Jianghe opened the email and took a look. He used more than 4 million US dollars to buy inverse ETF indices for shorting the Nasdaq 100 and the Russell 2000 small stock index, with 2x and 3x leverage respectively. The weekly return rate reached an astonishing 62%.
"As expected of a capital giant, he has a keen sense of smell and can make a killing as soon as he enters the market."
Chen Jianghe smiled. The reason why Hongyan Capital has been able to thrive and remain standing is definitely because of its unique features.
"Boss Yang, are you still in Yuedong? Can you spare some time to come over for a cup of coffee?"
Chen Jianghe took the initiative to invite me on QQ.
"Here I am."
Yang Wanying quickly replied, but teased him deliberately: "I find you're a bit realistic. I asked you out a few times before but you were not available. Now that I've helped you make money, you immediately took the initiative to ask me out. Don't you think you're too utilitarian?"
Chen Jianghe smiled and didn't respond at all. He typed a line of words to her: "This is the first time I take the initiative to invite a girl for coffee."
When Yang Wanying saw the message, the corners of her mouth turned up and she replied with a smile: "This statement is a little unreliable, it should be more effective to deceive female college students who are not very experienced in the world."
"Although lies can always bring unexpected rewards, I believe that honesty is the cornerstone of relationships." Chen Jianghe replied: "I don't have the habit of drinking coffee, so I never take the initiative to invite people for coffee."
"I'll trust you for once."
Yang Wanying smiled faintly and quickly replied: "I'm free now, can you come to CITIC Tower to find me?"
"Can."
Chen Jianghe replied immediately, hurriedly reviewed the documents on his desk, and then drove to CITIC Tower.
“It’s my first time to drink coffee in such a high-end place. It feels quite interesting.”
Coming to the 48th floor financial district where Yang Wanying was, Chen Jianghe sat face to face with her by the window drinking coffee. His eyes drifted out of the window from time to time, overlooking the central city.
"Your first time was a bit much."
Yang Wanying smiled and joked: "How lucky am I to be able to take on so many of Mr. Chen's first times?"
"There's nothing wrong with what you said. I gave most of my first times to you." Chen Jianghe said with a smile.
"What about the rest?" Yang Wanying asked with interest.
Chen Jianghe glanced at her and said, "I'll give it to you another day."
Yang Wanying suppressed her smile and lowered her head to stir the coffee.
"You came to see me for more than just to have a cup of coffee with me, right?" Yang Wanying suddenly asked.
"I'd like to ask you for a favor." Chen Jianghe said.
"What help?" Yang Wanying raised her head.
"I want to visit your father." Chen Jianghe said seriously, "I hope you can introduce him to me."
"Huh?" Yang Wanying stared, feeling a little surprised, then she thought about it and realized something, and said with a smile: "I don't want to take you to meet my parents."
"Then take me to meet your sister." Chen Jianghe continued.
Yang Wanying shook her head. "Our Yang family focuses on industry. My father and sister will not easily enter the Internet field. You might as well go directly to me instead of to them."
"Okay, it's you." Chen Jianghe smiled and said, "As a friend, you can't take me to meet your father or your sister, but you can take me to meet the founder of your Hongyan Capital Huaxia Foundation, right?"
"You've dug a very deep hole."
Yang Wanying looked at him deeply and couldn't help but sigh. She felt that she had fallen into the trap set by Chen Jianghe and was being tricked by him bit by bit.
"Do you want to talk to our boss about financing?" Yang Wanying asked.
"Don't think too much." Chen Jianghe took a sip of coffee and said, "I just want to get to know him. If possible, it would be nice to make friends with him."
