After eating, Cheng Yu helped the old lady clear away the dishes.
"Just put it in the sink, put some water on it, and I'll wash it after a while." The old lady looked at Cheng Yu with a smile. She thought Cheng Yu was so pleasing to the child.
"Don't worry about it. I've eaten your food. Why can't I leave the dishwashing job to you again?"
Rolling up his sleeves, Cheng Yu washed all the dishes very quickly. After all, he has lived independently abroad for such a long time, so he is quite handy at washing dishes and the like.
The weather was getting really hot. While Cheng Yu was washing the dishes, a thin layer of sweat broke out on his forehead.
The old lady smiled and took two tissues and handed them to Cheng Yu.
Cheng Yu wiped his sweat and said, "Grandma, looking at what you just said, you are so knowledgeable about cooking. Were you a chef before?"
"No, I used to work at Wudong University."
"I also said that although women cook at home, most chefs are men."
"What about you? Judging from your car, the conditions at home should be very good. Why don't you live at home instead of living out?"
"I am the opposite of your child. I just came back from the United States. I graduated from elementary school and now I have graduated from college. When I came back, I found that I almost didn't recognize Wu Dong. I thought that by moving out, I could get familiar with the current society as soon as possible."
The old lady nodded and asked, "Which university did you study abroad?"
"University of Southern California."
"University of Southern California?" Seeing Cheng Yu nod, the old lady asked again: "What major are you studying?"
"Economy."
"The major is good, why don't you stay in the United States?"
"Don't look at my young age. I was sent there right after I graduated from elementary school and have stayed in the United States for ten years. I really don't want to stay there anymore. The United States is nice, but it's not my home. So I have to come back.
”
The old lady nodded, but then said: "This is a pity, but it is excusable. In fact, your major is not of much use at the undergraduate level. It would be great if you could continue your studies and study as a graduate student." p>
"The school wants to keep me... I'm not bragging to you. I graduated in three years. Many people in our school can't get enough credits in five years. If it weren't for the courses offered in the first two years, I would
There was really no way to coordinate the selection of a course with enough credits, and I wished I could finish it in two years. After submitting the thesis, the supervisor in charge of our thesis gave me an A-, and then asked me if I would like to study for his doctoral degree.
I declined."
"You kid, how could you give up such a good opportunity? Your supervisor takes the initiative to ask you to study for his Ph.D.... Who is your thesis supervisor?"
"Professor Rogers."
The old lady was stunned and said: "Is that Rogers, the famous expert in the field of economic modeling?"
Cheng Yu nodded and said, "Grandma, do you know him too? He doesn't teach us. He is specially hired by the college and is responsible for checking our papers."
"Silly boy, with Professor Rogers's level, how could he possibly be a gatekeeper? He wants to find talents suitable for training at the undergraduate level in the direction of economic research! You actually gave up studying for his doctorate..."
"I'm not interested in the laboratory either. Modeling is what I hate the most."
The old lady shook her head slowly and sighed: "You really don't know what a good opportunity you have missed!"
"No matter how good the opportunity is, if I'm not interested, there won't be much development. Grandma, you also teach economics at Wudong University?"
The old lady nodded, and then began to chat with Cheng Yu about economics majors. Cheng Yu answered fluently. After all, he had just finished writing the thesis not long ago, and these things were still engraved in his mind like a brand.
The longer the conversation lasted, the more the old lady felt regretful, because although the issues she discussed with Cheng Yu were very basic, Cheng Yu often had unique opinions, which may not be correct, but they were indeed worthwhile.
The direction of discussion.
In the end, the old lady said: "My child, I think you should think more carefully about your studies. You are very talented in the direction of economic research. It is a pity to waste it like this."
Cheng Yu insisted: "I don't know if I have talent or not. I only know that I am not interested. My parents also want me to return to the United States to continue my studies, but that's not possible."
In fact, it wasn't necessarily impossible originally, but when Cheng Yu learned that he had brain cancer, the matter became completely non-negotiable.
The old lady no longer tried to persuade her, but just asked: "Have you ever thought about what industry you plan to work in after returning to China?"
"Don't plan on introducing me to teach at Wu University!" Cheng Yu said with a smile.
The old lady also smiled and said: "You really want to go, but I don't have that much respect. Although you went to a prestigious school, your education is too low. Which school now has a lecturer who doesn't have a master's or doctorate? Let alone Wu University.
, you can’t get into ordinary colleges and universities.”
"That's good, that's good."
Cheng Yu thought for a moment and said, "I haven't decided yet. After all, I'm not familiar with the country yet. I think it's better to wait until I'm familiar with the domestic environment first."
"Well, that's right, but I have a suggestion, do you want to hear it?"
Cheng Yu smiled and said, "You said it."
"From the conversation just now and your previous performance, I can basically tell that your family should be ranked in Forbes, right?"
Cheng Yu didn't deny it, but he didn't admit it either.
"I probably know a lot about what you have learned. If you want to familiarize yourself with the domestic economic environment, I think you can start with angel investment. Of course, it doesn't have to be your family's investment. My eldest son is on Wall Street.
He is an investment banker. I can introduce you to him, and then you can connect with him and explore domestic projects. At that time, you can invest by yourself, or you can join forces with them. My eldest son has a lot of angel investments in his hands.
people, but there is an extreme lack of project executors..."
Cheng Yu blinked and said: "Investment? Is this just spending money!?"
The old lady was stunned, thinking how could Cheng Yu suddenly say such a layman's language? When chatting with him just now, this child's professional knowledge was very solid.
"Haha, I'm kidding you!" Cheng Yu also realized that what he just said was a little out of control, mainly because he thought of the God Digging System.
Doesn’t the divine system require him to spend money, and investment is a matter of spending a lot of money.
Even if it is an angel investment, each investment will start at least several hundred thousand, and may not be able to reach millions.
With such a large sum of money to back it up, and being stingy about investing, isn’t it just a matter of just picking up tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands?
At the same time, investment is definitely of great help to entrepreneurs who are struggling to seek investment.
Cheng Yu already knows that when you provide help to others, the points you can get for the same amount of money are doubled. The old lady's suggestion simply hits what he needs most.
Enlightenment, sudden enlightenment.
That’s why he blurted out that investing means spending money!
"Well, thank you for your suggestion. It's possible. I'll think about it more."
