In the end, Jiang Qingqing still rejected Li Yuan's "wall-crack recommendation", did not ask for those shiny things, and left happily holding a big plush doll.
Don't tell me, Li Yuan made a wonderful discovery in his previous life.
When I first started working, my income was low and my conditions were poor. Whenever I pursued a girl, my money was like water. I would often go home and make a bowl of instant noodles.
I really have no regrets for the goddess, and in the end... I have nothing left by licking the dog.
Later, as my income gradually increased, I became a second-generation demolition girl. There was no need to lick at all, and girls became very proactive.
And when the two of us are together, it’s the goddess who spends money? To put it in a beautiful name – I’m not that kind of superficial woman, and I’m not interested in your money!
MMP!
Licking a dog is for nothing!
…
Okay! Since Jiang Qingqing has been chased to Los Angeles, she must be the heroine of "Slumdog Millionaire".
Not to mention the celebration held at the Los Angeles headquarters of Parallel Technology. With this listing, 4 Parallel executives became multi-millionaires and 21 became millionaires. There was even one Martin who has resigned.
Of course, Martin would not ask for trouble and came to attend the celebration. He only sent an email to Li Yuan to express his congratulations.
However, in Silicon Valley, the successful listing of Parallel Line once again caused great shock.
In the past, high-tech upstarts, although they became rich overnight, were still billionaires. But this time, they are not only billionaires, but also exceed 5 billion US dollars in one fell swoop?
Especially because Li Yuan is Chinese and not considered a member of the Silicon Valley circle at all?
In this era, the technology geeks in Silicon Valley are still very proud. Outside the United States, not to mention other high-tech companies, there are only a few countries that even have computer majors in universities. Silicon Valley almost dominates the world.
Under such circumstances, Cheng Yaojin and Li, a Chinese villain, unexpectedly appeared halfway and became a blockbuster?
How can you bear this?
So like a shot in the arm, new start-up high-tech companies are constantly being born, and hot money from venture capital is constantly pouring in. New Internet concepts are constantly being proposed, and new young people are constantly coming on the scene...
Anyway, it’s like a circus, and there is a new wave of entrepreneurial boom...
…
At this time in Hong Kong, Huang Jiaojiao was happily holding Ling Ling in her arms, attending a large banquet of a certain upper class society.
Originally, Huang Jiaojiao was not qualified to participate in such a banquet. Generally speaking, they were celebrities from all walks of life and family leaders. And the young people who were qualified to participate also followed their elders to broaden their horizons, and they must be in the future.
important heir.
Therefore, Huang Jiaojiao is very happy to be able to enter such a banquet. Although she is already the eldest sister of the young masters and ladies, most of them are young masters and ladies who are not qualified to inherit. They just gather together to have fun, and the elders also let them go
They are messing around. But does it really have an important position? It really doesn't count.
However, this time, Huang Jiaojiao actually got the invitation letter? This is obviously an endorsement of her and a certain stinky man!
"Lisa, here! Sit next to me." Huang Dongsheng waved from a distance. When he saw Ling Ling sleeping soundly, he couldn't help but want to squeeze her.
"Let go!" Huang Jiaojiao glared. She looked around and sat down next to Huang Dongsheng with satisfaction.
For a banquet like this, the seating arrangement is very particular.
The main tables at the top must be those with prominent figures. The circle around the main table is mainly occupied by the heirs of big families like Huang Xuri.
As for the tables at the back, those are relatively unimportant roles. For example, people like Huang Xuri are the heirs’ backup; another example is people like Huang Jiaojiao… they can be considered guests!
Of course, there are also the outermost tables, which are newcomers or minor characters in upper class society.
Logically speaking, a daughter of a big family like Huang Jiaojiao would not be qualified to enter unless she was her father's female companion, replacing the wife's role.
Even the CEOs of the three major listed companies today are just "newcomers." If you want to join this circle, you don't just look at the total wealth, sometimes you need to rank based on seniority.
Therefore, by making her debut, she was able to skip the level of "newbies and small roles", and Huang Jiaojiao felt that her vanity was satisfied.
Realizing that Huang Dongsheng had secretly extended his claws again, Huang Jiaojiao rolled her eyes: "You like children so much, why don't you give birth to one yourself?"
"I'm just waiting for my eldest brother to take turns giving birth to you. I don't have to worry about it, and I can play casually." Huang Dongsheng smiled shamelessly, "I plan to play for a few more years, and we'll see when the time comes!"
"Hey! How dare you ask grandpa to agree to it? No matter how brave you are, you wouldn't dare."
"Alas! I am a musician. Family life will affect my creative talent!"
Huang Jiaojiao couldn't stop laughing. She was used to her second brother's nonsense: "Let me tell you, we have to split the money again. We have already established a position in Dafu Media, and we are just waiting for the good news from Xiao Yuanzi."
Huang Dongsheng's eyes lit up: "Are we going to continue the hype? Will they be fooled? This time I defrauded my sister-in-law of all her private money?"
"Sister-in-law?"
"Haha. I will tell my eldest brother about the opportunity to make money. We only have more money than a private house, and my eldest brother is just a poor man."
"Kekeke..."
"Hey, I have a question for you. Are Yuanzi sure?"
"He told me that Parallel Line must have performed very well. It should be able to earn more than one billion (Hong Kong dollars)."
"I'll choose! More than one billion? Where can you and your wife get the money? I'll tell you if I can get it."
"Hehe. Think about it, don't the people from Netscape and Yahoo already have hundreds of millions of dollars? Will Xiao Yuanzi be worse than them?"
"Wait a minute. I'm not joking. Are there really more than a billion? I heard that the parallel line was not established in just a few years?"
"It should be...! Okay, if there are not more than a billion, there will always be hundreds of millions, right?" Huang Jiaojiao is not sure. The eldest lady is very busy recently. After making money, she will definitely buy something for herself and her baby.
Buy buy!
"I'll choose! A few hundred million is pretty good too. Lisa, let me ask you, is the Internet just that profitable?"
"I don't know either. I always feel it's a bit contrary to common sense."
"Hmm! My elder brother and I also discussed this a few days ago. He looked at you...oh, and the reports of Netscape and Yahoo, and thought that they violated the principles of economics and greatly deviated from their own value...
…”
Huang Jiaojiao rolled her eyes: "Speak humanly!"
As a top student majoring in finance at a prestigious British university, the eldest lady doesn’t understand this nonsense at all.
"Ahem." Huang Dongsheng glanced helplessly, "What brother means - you are playing with fire! Speculative business without foundation! There is no fundamental support at all! Sooner or later, your true colors will be revealed! It will fall miserably!
…”
"Humph!" the eldest lady said with a tigerish face. She didn't like to hear such words. "Second brother, what the hell does the boss know about the Internet? He is just a low-level businessman selling houses. We are the ones who promote technological progress."
Entrepreneur of the highest order!"
"Okay! You and Yuanzi look more and more alike. You are both great scientists!"
"Ling Ling, ignore your uncle and still smile at him? Both he and your uncle are fools! Humph!"
"hehe."
"..."
The banquet finally started, and those at the main table spoke and toasted one after another. The banquet slowly reached its climax.
Today is a Chinese-style banquet, not a Western-style banquet.
Western-style banquets are generally in the form of a buffet. It is not about how good the food is, but mainly to provide a place for socializing.
However, at Western-style banquets, although the degree of freedom is relatively high, small circles will spontaneously form. Since opportunities are rare, it is more difficult to squeeze into the core circle, and basically communicate in circles of the same level.
In Chinese banquets, the main purpose is not to eat well, but also to provide a social place.
Chinese-style banquets are more about rules. But there is one better thing - it provides an opportunity to cross class. You can go to the main table to toast and say a few words. At least you can become familiar with each other.
Realizing that it was already time for a toast, Huang Dongsheng ordered in a low voice: "Lisa, give me Lingling."
"Why?" Huang Jiaojiao looked at Huang Dongsheng warily.
"I'll make a toast later and let the elders take a look at the baby. If they are interested and ask about it, just look at my gestures and come together to say hello."
This is Huang Dongsheng's good intention, wanting to give the girl a chance to show her face. After all, no one knows whether Huang Jiaojiao is qualified to toast. For example, those people on the periphery! If there is no heavyweight introducer, they
He is not qualified to toast.
Of course, if someone comes forward forcefully, they won't fall out. However, they will be labeled as "ignoring the rules" and will be excluded from upper class society in the future.
On the contrary, after having Ling Ling, who would care about a child? After all, there are people with status here. This gives Huang Jiaojiao a chance.
"Yeah." Huang Jiaojiao smiled happily. Is this second brother quite reliable sometimes?
However, when Huang Dongsheng took Lingling and Huang Jiaojiao poured wine for him, suddenly several attendants came to the main table and said a few words in the ears of Mr. Huang and others.
Everyone at the main table seemed to be surprised, and the whole place gradually became quiet, wondering what accident had happened.
"My lord, you have given birth to a wonderful granddaughter!" someone nearby complimented.
"Children are making nonsense. They are still very ignorant. Haha." Mr. Huang pretended to be calm, but the expression on his face was very complicated, with both joy and doubt.
"Where is it? Is Yuanzi here today? Young people are awesome, so you should give us a toast!"
"He is still in the United States. Didn't his company just go public? Oh! Jiaojiao is here today. Let her meet you elder uncles."
Following Mr. Huang's beckoning, Huang Jiaojiao and Huang Dongsheng looked equally confused and carried Lingling to the main table.
"Grandpa! Mom and Dad! Grandpa Li, Uncle Lian..." Huang Jiaojiao said hello inexplicably. She still hadn't figured out why she suddenly became the focus of the main table.
Someone at the table took the initiative to explain: "Miss Third, congratulations. Your Parallel Technology is listed in the United States! It soared 380% on the day of listing. Brother Yuan's personal assets have now exceeded US$5 billion! HK$36 billion!"
"Ah? Ah——?"
This astronomical figure also surprised the eldest lady. Before Li Yuan was going to the United States, it seemed that he had been busy speculating in Hong Kong stocks and real estate, right?
Then, Huang Jiaojiao felt extremely regretful!
If I had known this was the case! Then we should go to the United States together! What a great opportunity to be in the limelight? That’s just showing off in front of the world’s media——!
Seeing Huang Jiaojiao stunned on the spot, and the people around her burst into kind laughter, they thought the eldest lady was too happy.
"Come here!" Someone took the initiative to tell the waiter next to him, "Here is another chair for Jiaojiao."
"clear!"
Don’t forget! Hong Kong is a Hong Kong for rich people!
When the wealth reaches a certain amount, the previous rules are no longer rules. Therefore, Huang Jiaojiao also has a seat at the main table.
36 billion Hong Kong dollars! In Hong Kong, they are among the top richest people. They have already surpassed the category of ordinary businessmen.
It is no exaggeration to say that although Li Yuan and Huang Jiaojiao are young, they have become new wealthy families. As long as they can maintain this huge wealth, status, heritage, etc., they will have it all!
After handing Ling Ling into Huang Jiaojiao's hands, Huang Dongsheng toasted with wine and left knowingly.
Seeing that the others were silent, Mr. Huang took the initiative to ask: "Jiaojiao, it seems that your elder brother has talked about this kind of Internet. Is this business so profitable?"
In fact, Huang Jiaojiao also had only a half-knowledge, and most of that "half-knowledge" was heard from Li Yuan.
"Grandpa, I don't know either. But Yuanzi has been saying that the future is definitely the Internet."
"Oh! Just like your recent Dafu Media?"
"Uh... Actually, Hong Kong is too small and not a good place to develop the Internet. Yuanzi said that the best place is in the mainland!" Huang Jiaojiao finally told the truth.
Of course, at that time, Li Yuan said in a disdainful tone - You should just play real estate in Hong Kong!
Huang Jiaojiao would never say these words to her face.
Here, a major function of social networking is definitely to exchange business opportunities. Maybe just a few words can lead to a big business.
The business circle is not a fan circle, and these old men here are not idols. The reason why we have the opportunity to meet and toast is just to reveal a little bit of business opportunities.
However, Huang Jiaojiao's words made others doubtful: "Mainland?"
If we say it’s the United States, Europe or this book, it’s still somewhat credible. How come it’s the mainland?
Of course, the people here are very sophisticated, and almost all of them are cunning and cunning. Some people secretly speculated that maybe Huang Jiaojiao didn't want to reveal the source of her wealth, so she deliberately gave a ridiculous reason just to tactfully refuse, right?
"Haha." Mr. Huang smoothed things over, "Yuanzi is from the mainland, he must have a patriotic heart! Even my grandson is an outgoing girl, and she wants to move back to her hometown in the mainland."
"Haha. It's always good to go closer to the north." Someone said with a smile, "If we encounter trouble in the mainland in the future, we may also come to your Huang family."
"They are all good friends and will definitely help."
