"Sister Zhizhi."

Chen Zhu said hello to Deng Zhi, but was a little embarrassed when he got in the car.

Normally I should sit in the passenger seat, but the passenger seat was a bit messy, with clothes, handbags, and some towels scattered around.

Maybe many female drivers are like this. No matter how fashionable and beautiful they look, the car is like a treasure house.

Noticing that Chen Zhu's eyes lingered on the "little bat", Deng Zhi sighed inwardly and pretended not to see it and said: "You can sit in the back."

"OK."

When Chen Zhu got into the car, Deng Zhi turned the steering wheel, and the car drifted beautifully and slowly drove away from the newspaper building.

The raindrops unknowingly fell heavier and heavier, slowly flowing down the car windows, like layers of sliding oil, blocking the foggy world outside.

"After this rain stops, winter will officially begin in Guangzhou."

Deng Zhi first found a topic.

"Yes, it always rains in Guangzhou in winter."

Chen Zhu said, his eyes attracted by the shiny earrings on Deng Zhi's ears.

The light in the car was already dim, and the diamond earrings reflected the car lights on the opposite side, contrasting with Deng Zhi's smooth and elegant profile. They loomed brightly and darkly in the car, giving it a mysterious and romantic feeling for no reason.

"Chen Zhu, I didn't mean not to agree to your invitation."

Deng Zhi explained the reason in detail: "The newspaper office has been really busy recently. You are from Lingyuan. I wonder if you have learned any knowledge about the financial and stock markets."

"The professor has given lessons."

Chen Zhu said.

"Did the professor mention the subprime mortgage crisis currently occurring in the United States?"

Deng Zhi put his hands on the steering wheel and said while driving: "After the real estate bubble burst, the economic crisis caused by the inability to repay bank loans has swept the world."

Chen Zhu did not interrupt and listened quietly.

"The current situation is that we don't know how much shock it will cause to our country's financial market."

Deng Zhi turned his head and glanced at the back row. His pointed chin had a sense of roundness.

It seems that all beauties are like this. The chins of Yu Xian and Song Shiwei also have charming arcs.

"I've heard of foot fetishists and breast fetishists. I'm not a chin fetishist, so perverted?"

Chen Zhu was muttering in his heart.

I heard Deng Zhi continue: "...So, newspapers have been discussing this matter recently. No matter how much impact it has on our A-shares, these will be hot social issues."

Chen Zhu nodded. From the media's perspective, if the financial crisis cannot affect the domestic financial market, it means that our economic development is very strong;

If there is an impact, it is necessary to analyze the reasons and find countermeasures.

In short, there is a lot to explore in both possibilities.

"What do you think, Sister Zhizhi?"

Chen Zhu asked curiously.

"I think..."

Deng Zhi stared at the traffic lights ahead and said uncertainly: "It should be able to withstand the impact. Even if it has a slight impact, it won't be big. Now is the best era for the domestic financial market. The market price of more than 6,000 points will fall back to 5,000 or more at most.

More than 4,000."

After Deng Zhi finished speaking, he noticed that Chen Zhu was silent, so he pursed his lips and smiled: "Why, you have a different opinion?"

"Um."

Chen Zhu said seriously: "I think the impact will be great, and it is likely to fall below the market."

"oh?"

Deng Zhi didn't take Chen Zhu's words seriously at first and asked casually: "Why?"

"After all, the U.S. dollar is still the dominant player. It has been hit hard, and the world's currency markets cannot remain unaffected."

Chen Zhu first gave a reason, but this was also something that many economists talked about. Deng Zhi had heard it a long time ago and was a little noncommittal.

"Um……"

Therefore, Chen Zhu thought deeply for a moment, and instead of talking about serious economic reasons, he analyzed it from a human perspective: "The United States is a gangster. If its own country's economic situation gets worse, it will definitely pull the whole world to follow.

Let’s go downhill together.”

"Because everyone has gotten worse, it means it has not gotten worse."

Chen Zhu smiled bitterly: "Such an ending is probably the outcome that Americans who have suffered from economic collapse would rather see."

"You seem to distrust Americans."

Deng Zhi was still puzzled: "But your Lingyuan's overseas study rate has always been quite high."

"That's their business. Anyway, I never trust Americans."

Chen Zhu sighed and said: "It's a pity that today's society, especially in the economic field, almost regards Wall Street as the norm, as if their farts are delicious."

"I feel the same way when you say that."

Deng Zhiran said with a sigh: "Last year, a businessman in our country won the opportunity to have lunch with Buffett for 4 million. It can be said that the whole country was shocked. Our magazine wrote a press release for a week, as if this was a great national blessing.

.”

"It's hard to understand, can one meal turn you into a business genius?"

Deng Zhi shook his head and said, "I quite despise these people who are chasing success and profit."

Chen Zhu's expression suddenly became strange. He looked at Deng Zhi carefully and pretended not to mind and said, "Maybe it's just for publicity."

"Then I despise it too!"

It was rare for Deng Zhi to reveal his true feelings in front of his brother, a college student.

Chen Zhu shook his shoulders unnaturally, feeling as if there was a "dong dong dong" sound in his ears. When he raised his head, it turned out that it was raindrops hitting the car above his head.

It seems like a cowhide snare drum is beating, and it has an inexplicable hypnotic rhythm.

It wasn't until he saw the outline of CUHK becoming clearer in the rain and Deng Zhi was about to drive in that Chen Zhu reminded him: "Sister Zhizhi, don't go to the school. It's in the Science and Technology Valley Park next door."

"Tech Valley?"

Deng Zhi was stunned for a moment. She was no stranger there and had interviewed some companies in the Technology Valley, but she just didn't know what she was doing in the past.

"The dean of our Lingyuan Hospital heard about my business and specially set aside an office to rent to us."

Chen Zhu explained.

"So that's it."

After hearing this, Deng Zhi suddenly said with some emotion: "This is the advantage of being backed by a big tree to enjoy the shade. You can be said to be a direct descendant of CUHK. If there is any benefit, the school leaders will help you apply."

"Sister Zhizhi's report also helped me a lot."

Chen Zhu thanked him again: "At least I can use the tiger skin to make a banner."

Deng Zhi smiled, said nothing, and drove into the Science and Technology Valley Park with the turn signal on.

…

After parking the car, we were still a little far away from the office in Building A.

Only then did Deng Zhi realize that there was only one umbrella in the car.

"I'll just run back."

In order to avoid unnecessary embarrassment, Chen Zhu spoke first.

"What? Are you afraid that your girlfriend will see you?"

On the contrary, Deng Zhi didn't care.

In her heart, Chen Zhu is just a younger brother who is seven or eight years younger than herself.

Putting all this aside, women with strong personalities like Deng Zhi will not find boys younger than themselves as lovers because they are too naive. They will most likely find mature men who are stronger than themselves.

"Come here quickly!"

Deng Zhi opened his umbrella and said to Chen Zhu without any doubt.

Chen Zhu then walked over, but he was a bit tall. Deng Zhi’s arms were a little sore after raising them for a while, so he simply put the umbrella into Chen’s hand: “You can hold it up!”

Chen Zhu took it with a smile, and the two walked side by side in the rain. The raindrops hit the umbrella surface with a "bang bang bang" sound, and the high heels worn by Deng Zhi also clicked on the wet ground.

He walks with his head held high and is full of aura.

Although there were water stains on her trousers with every step she took, she didn't care at all and looked around at the companies settling in the Science and Technology Valley Park.

"Internet portals, research on genetically modified organisms, radio technology communication... The Science and Technology Valley is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger. It seems that the least technical thing is the IELTS and TOEFL training."

Deng Zhi commented unceremoniously.

Chen Zhu thought that Tang Juncai would be unhappy when he heard this, because he worked part-time at that IELTS and TOEFL training institution.

But this also shows that Deng Zhi is a person who only thinks about work. I really wonder if she had a relationship in college.

So how does her boyfriend tolerate such a career-minded and strong girl?

But this was just a small doubt in his heart. Chen Zhu still respected Deng Zhi very much. When he arrived at the door of the 311 office, he immediately asked everyone to stand up and greet him.

"Professor Zeng, you have met before, as well as Fang Qing, Ning Lianlian and Zhuang Mengshi."

"This is Teacher Xia Huilan, Xia Xia, Song Qing and Zhang Guangfeng. This is your first time meeting Sister Zhizhi."

"Teacher Xia is Professor Zeng's lover. There are so many things to do when starting up the company. Professor Zeng called Teacher Xia, who used to work in a state-owned enterprise and is now enjoying his life at home, to come over and help."

"Song Qing and Zhang Guangfeng are talents that I begged my parents for a long time before they agreed to recommend them..."

Look, this is called introduction, being thorough and respectful.

In fact, the situation of Xia Huilan, Song Qing and Zhang Guangfeng is not what they said at all.

But so what?

Deng Zhi didn't know.

When shaking hands, she not only thanked Xia Huilan for helping Chen, her younger brother, but also said to Song Qing and Zhang Guangfeng: "I know the level of Uncle Chen and Aunt Mao, and the talents they recommended must have no problem with their abilities."

Although Xia Huilan and the three of them have been modestly saying "I don't dare to take it", they must have a sense of pride in being taken seriously.

A scholar will die for his confidant. This is also a kind of brainwashing.

After the introduction, Chen Zhu and Zeng Kun accompanied Deng Zhi into the inner office, while the others continued to work outside. There was a sense of "adults talking about things, children don't get involved".

Zeng Kun had already received the message and made tea. This is how people in eastern Guangdong do, they drink tea first and then talk about things.

Chen Zhu brought the porcelain cup filled with tea, and Deng Zhi took it with one hand, held it underneath with the other, and took a sip gracefully.

Deng Zhi put down the tea cup and looked around.

Through the glass window, you can see the tall palm leaves, which have been washed in the rain and glow with a faint green light.

Even though I was in the house, I seemed to feel a refreshing coolness wafting through my heart. Taking a deep breath, I seemed to be able to smell the fragrance of vegetation and earth.

“The scenery here is really nice.”

Deng Zhi praised: "It has only been a long time since we were able to have an independent office in Huasheng Technology, and looking at everyone's desktop layout, it seems like they have been working here for a long time."

Zeng Kun pushed up his glasses: "Chen Zhu did all this himself."

Lao Zeng and Chen Zhu have been together for a long time, and they seem to have learned a few words of flattery.

Chen Zhu smiled: "It's not my fault alone, Sister Zhizhi..."

"Okay, okay, stop talking about me."

Deng Zhi waved his hand and interrupted: "I didn't expect you to be able to do this in a short time at first. What are your plans for the future?"

This seems to be a natural inquiry. Everyone who sees the rapid development of retroactive technology is interested in the company's future plans.

Zeng Kun and Chen Zhu looked at each other, and finally Chen Zhu revealed his next plan.

In fact, it is very simple. It is to expand publicity and influence and attract more parents to become paid members of the website.

The specific method is to continue advertising through radio, television, and media media such as "Yangcheng Evening News" to establish a firm foothold in the province within three months.

Three months later, a big stunt will be launched to expand the influence across the country and even abroad.

As for what the stunt was, Chen Zhu didn't say. In fact, even Zeng Kun didn't know.

But this was enough to surprise Deng Zhi. She didn't expect that such a big ambition was hidden in the body of an 18-year-old young man.

Moreover, Chen Zhu also proposed a very new concept called "entrepreneur IP".

"These are the assumptions."

After finishing speaking, Chen Zhu remained very low-key: "There is a huge gap between ideal and reality. Maybe I want to create Xiao Long Nv, but the result may be Xiao Long Bao."

"What is entrepreneur IP."

As a journalist with sensitivity, Deng Zhi raised this question.

"Entrepreneur" knows what it means, and "IP" also knows what it means, but together they are a bit incomprehensible.

Chen Zhu thought about it for a while, and it seemed that this concept was a little too early in 2007, because there were no ready-made examples to cite at this time.

But that’s okay, I plan to be the first to try it anyway.

"In the course of the company's development, I will gradually occupy a more important reputation than the company and its products."

Chen Zhu smiled a little sheepishly: "For example, create a character, create some conflicts, and then shape some stories..."

Although Chen Zhu explained it as clearly as possible, Deng Zhi still seemed to understand. After all, there was no "predecessor" to learn from.

However, she can feel that this is a very innovative entrepreneurial model.

“I will continue to pay attention and wait and see!”

A workaholic like Deng Zhi seems to have discovered a new world.

Next, the three of them talked about the entrepreneurial experiences of other domestic college students. In short, regardless of their background, the process of starting a business is not without effort.

At about 6 o'clock in the evening, Deng Zhi's cell phone suddenly rang. After she answered the call, she answered a few words, stood up and said, "Okay, I'm going back. There is an emergency in the office and I need to write a manuscript."

"We haven't eaten yet!"

Chen Zhu knew that Deng Zhi would have to go back and work overtime later, but he thought he could have a meal.

"I can't catch up. Besides, I listened to a lot of your words today. I think it's more meaningful than eating!"

Deng Zhi took the umbrella and was about to leave. Maybe for people like her, chatting and eating is a waste of time.

"Wait a minute!"

Seeing that he couldn't stop him, Chen quickly said: "Sister Zhizhi, I bought a box of cosmetics that day..."

"cosmetic?"

Deng Zhi frowned. She had only used one brand of cosmetics, and her skin was prone to allergies if she used other brands.

I was about to persuade Chen Zhu to give the cosmetics to others, but I saw Chen Zhu coming out carrying an Estee Lauder gift box.

"How did he know I had been using this brand?"

Deng Zhi's heart suddenly jumped.

"Sister Zhizhi, you are not allowed to leave unless you accept it."

Chen Zhi's words completely blocked Deng Zhi's desire to evade.

Deng Zhi stared at Chen Zhu for a moment and realized that this younger brother didn't look like he was joking. Besides, she still had work waiting for her, so she picked up the cosmetics gift box and rushed into the rain with an umbrella.

Chen Zhu hurriedly followed behind and said as he walked: "Sister Zhizhi, Big A will definitely be hit hard by the financial crisis. Once there is a downward fluctuation, it is basically impossible to rise back to the original level. You can stick to this

My point of view is, if you are wrong, I can compensate you."

"What are you going to compensate me for?"

Deng Zhi laughed, feeling like his little brother had regained the cuteness he had when he was a child.

"pay……"

Chen Zhu just wanted to emphasize the accuracy of what he said, and he really didn't think about making any compensation, because he knew that he must be right.

"Go back first."

After getting in the car, Deng Zhi lightly stepped on the accelerator, waved and said, "Next time I'll invite you and your girlfriend to have dinner together."

"good!"

Chen Zhu agreed, but he was thinking that Sister Zhizhi, you might invite her more than once.

…

The silver BMW slowly left the Science and Technology Valley in the rain. Deng Zhi, who was in the driver's seat, was driving while summarizing the relatively novel concepts that he had discussed with Chen Zhu today.

Seeing that there seemed to be signs of a traffic jam ahead, Deng Zhi subconsciously tuned the car radio to Guangzhou Radio Traffic Voice (FM105.2MHz). Without even listening to a few messages about traffic jams and car accidents, an advertisement suddenly popped up:

"If you are looking for a tutor, come to CUHK Study Network! CUHK Study Network is an intermediary service platform founded by Chen Zhu of Sun Yat-sen University. Here you can randomly select 985 students to tutor your children, allowing them to improve their grades as soon as possible in a short period of time.

As a free member, you can change your tutor without any reason! What are you parents waiting for? If you are looking for a tutor, come to CUHK Study Network!"

It wasn't until after listening to this advertisement that Deng Zhi realized that it was an advertisement for Chenzhu Company.

However, due to time constraints, I read this advertisement very quickly, and in the end, only the words "CUHK Chen, CUHK Learning Network, Tutoring Website" were engraved in my mind.

Especially the sentence "If you are looking for a tutor, come to the CUHK Study Network" was read twice in an advertisement, which has a very brainwashing effect.

There is also a special emphasis on "Chen Zhongshan University". I wonder if this is the first step in creating an "entrepreneur IP" character.

"Maybe I can witness the entire process of a company from its inception to its growth."

Deng Zhi thought to herself that as a practitioner who was accustomed to recording stories with pens and photos, she couldn't wait to see "Retroactive Technology" become a real big company.

"In that case, I can accept this box of Estee Lauder."

Although Deng Zhi does not know the specific price of cosmetics, based on past consumption experience, this kind of gift box will not be cheap.

"Let's think of a way to help this brother again."

Deng Zhi's mind wandered a little far, and he didn't notice the message from his colleague at all:

Editor Deng, the big A in the afternoon.

Fell!!!
