Chapter 79: It’s so damn good to be rich
In front of the floor-to-ceiling window, Zhou Jianfeng hummed a cheerful tune and looked at the scenery outside the window.
He has been in high spirits recently. He made a lot of money by shorting the ruble, and thus became a celebrity in the local rich second-generation circle.
People who used to look down on him would now come over to say hello when they meet him. What's more, a beautiful, rich and pretty girl in a certain circle who used to ignore him actually secretly wanted to ask him out for tea a few days ago.
Needless to say, when it comes to attending gatherings in his circle, people always offer him cigarettes and light them for him wherever he goes, and his family is also very proud of him.
Zhou Jianfeng was very glad that he got the one million from Lu Yiming before officially entering the market. Although Lu Yiming paid him two hundred thousand less in interest, he had already earned more than eight hundred thousand with this one million!
In comparison, the two hundred thousand is nothing.
In order to make more money, Zhou Jianfeng did not hesitate to borrow funds from others and continued to make additional investments, and the snowball kept getting bigger and bigger!
He decided to go big!
As long as he succeeds, he will have the capital to rise. Maybe in the future he will have a place in Baiyun’s top wealthy circle!
After dressing up carefully, Zhou Jianfeng wore a neat suit and went to attend a gathering of rich second-generation people.
The standard of this gathering is very high. In the past, Zhou Jianfeng would not have been qualified to attend.
But now it’s different. He made a lot of money by speculating in foreign exchange, and now he is famous and finally qualified to be invited.
Zhou Jianfeng was very excited to be able to break through his own social level and enter a more high-end circle. He spent tens of thousands of dollars and gritted his teeth to customize a high-end suit.
That night, Zhou Jianfeng wore a new suit and went to the hotel to attend a party.
"The Ruble Reapers are coming."
"The person the Russians hate the most makes a grand appearance."
As soon as Zhou Jianfeng entered the venue, the top rich second-generations who would normally never even look at him, all cast friendly glances at him and even took the initiative to make jokes with him.
Compared to the fear and trepidation he felt when he was being sought after some time ago, Zhou Jianfeng has now gradually adapted to the compliments from these rich second-generations. He puts himself on an equal footing with them and communicates with them enthusiastically.
Looking at those people around him who he used to look up to but are now chatting and laughing with him, Zhou Jianfeng sincerely feels that it is really great to be rich.
Just as Zhou Jianfeng was chatting enthusiastically with these people, he heard a commotion at the door. Many people left Zhou Jianfeng and looked towards the door.
At this time, a young man walked in.
The young man's clothes were not fancy, just an ordinary slim-fitting suit, but he looked extraordinary. From his every move, you could tell that he was a man of great vision.
The young man's name is Wu Jianhao, the son of Wu Jinliang.
Zhou Jianfeng felt very unhappy when he saw the rich second-generations who had been so enthusiastic towards him just now suddenly surrounding Wu Jianhao like stars surrounding the moon.
"Isn't it just that you were born better than me and your family has some money? What's so great ? When I make a fortune, I will let you all know what a true child of destiny is!"
Zhou Jianfeng silently cheered himself up in his heart, then turned around and licked it...
There is no way. He is the only son of the second in command of Jingwan Group . With his status and position, you have to lick him.
Originally, Wu Jianhao looked down on Zhou Jianfeng. After all, although Zhou Youguang had a long history in Baiyun's business community, his assets and connections could not compare to Wu Jinliang's.
But recently, he heard that Zhou Jianfeng made a lot of money by shorting the ruble, so Wu Jianhao immediately became interested in him and took the initiative to greet him, "Jianfeng, I didn't expect you to come here too."
Zhou Jianfeng couldn't help but complain in his heart: "You guys didn't even call me before."
But he said with a smile on his face: "Brother Hao is getting more and more handsome."
Zhou Jianfeng no longer had the slightest feeling of inferiority. Before, Zhou Jianfeng could only look up to Wu Jianhao, a gifted child of heaven, and it could even be said that he could hardly even catch up with him. But now, his success in speculating on the ruble had made him feel that he was qualified to look Wu Jianhao on equal terms.
Wu Jianhao patted Zhou Jianfeng on the shoulder and praised him: "I heard that you have made a lot of money from foreign exchange speculation recently?"
Zhou Jianfeng was tickled, and he immediately looked pleased, but pretended to be modest and said, "No, no, I only made over 50 million, not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning."
After hearing what Zhou Jianfeng said, there were many exclamations from the surroundings.
"Wow, he made 50 million in just over ten days!"
"More than 50 million? Not worth mentioning?"
They only knew that Zhou Jianfeng had made a lot of money recently, but they didn't know the exact amount. Now that Zhou Jianfeng asked for 50 million, they couldn't help but be amazed.
At this moment, the era of "ten thousand yuan households" has passed, and it has been replaced by the so-called millionaires. Zhou Jianfeng is so good that he has made fifty millionaires in less than a month!
Listening to these open and covert exclamations and discussions, Zhou Jianfeng quickly became inflated.
He felt that these top second-generation rich people were just like that.
Although he is not a top second-generation rich, he can become a top first-generation rich through his own talent and hard work!
Just as Zhou Jianfeng was unfolding the little plot in his mind, someone called out, "Lin Shuyi is here."
Suddenly, the huge banquet hall fell silent, and everyone's eyes involuntarily shifted to the entrance.
Lin Shuyi walked in slowly with graceful steps.
That slender waist was like a willow in early spring, her figure was plump and graceful, outlining a beautiful curve, her bright red mouth was as delicate and beautiful as a new cherry, her face was rosy, just like the peach blossoms in March, her black and white eyes were as clear as autumn lake water, without any stain from the light.
She looked like a fairy from heaven descending to earth, so unattainable.
However, Zhou Jianfeng thought of the humiliation he had suffered in front of Lin Shuyi, and swore in his heart: "Lin Shuyi, Lin Shuyi, you are so arrogant in front of me now, but one day, I will make you surrender to me and make you look up to me!"
Like Zhou Jianfeng, Wu Jianhao, who had a vague hostility towards Lin Shuyi in his heart, also had a deep look in his eyes at this moment. As the only son of Wu Jinliang, the father and son have been plotting against Jingwan Group for a long time.
As the second largest shareholder of Jingwan Group, Wu Jinliang has always wanted to train Wu Jianhao to become the successor of Jingwan Group.
After all, as the only daughter of the largest shareholder and founder of the company, although Lin Shuyi is nominally the only candidate to become the successor of the group, she is a girl.
In the 1990s when the idea of "only having one child" was rampant and preference for boys over girls was rampant, it can be said that this was an opportunity given to Vanness Wu by God.
