Zhou Chen's words once again made the mother and daughter look shocked, and Gao Xinyi was even more at a loss.
"Help Gao Xinyi open a trading company?"
Gao Yuejin had no idea what to do. She was asking Zhou Chen, but Zhou Chen asked Gao Xinyi to open an international trading company. What did this mean?
Zhou Chen nodded and said: "Yes, I have this idea. Xinyi is capable and young. I think she has potential. Of course, it depends on whether she is willing."
Hearing Zhou Chen praise Gao Xinyi for his ability and potential, Gao Yuejin agreed very much. She still knew her daughter was a little rebellious, but she was an authentic college student and was definitely capable of starting a company.
"Gao Xinyi, what do you think?"
"Ah? I never thought about it."
Gao Xinyi was confused. She had never thought about such a thing and was not prepared at all.
Gao Yuejin got very angry when he saw her like this: "Then what are you thinking about all day long? Just for fun? You have to put some thought into your career."
Gao Xinyi said with an aggrieved look: "I'm at work right now, aren't I?"
"You spent three days fishing and two days drying nets, complaining all day long, how much time can you spend on work? What you are talking about now is Zhou Chen's proposal just now. You are studying international trade. If you open an international
Do you want to be a trading company?"
"I don't know. This is too sudden. I've never done it before. I don't know if it can be done. You have to give me some time to think about it."
Gao Xinyi looked confused. She was not satisfied with the work arranged by her mother, but she never thought about starting a company and working alone. When Zhou Chen suddenly said this, she was really confused.
Gao Yuejin said with a look of hatred: "You, you are not doing your job all day long. You are not happy when I ask you to go to work. You don't go to the postgraduate entrance examination, but you don't go. Now I give you a chance to show your professional ability, but you still don't know."
I’m so overwhelmed, I really don’t have any plan at all.”
Gao Xinyi was obviously used to being trained and didn't care at all.
"It's too sudden. You have to give me some time to think about it. Eat, eat quickly."
Not wanting to continue talking on this topic, she quickly started cooking.
Seeing this, Gao Yuejin sighed, there was nothing he could do with his daughter.
"It's up to you. I can't control one or two of you. If you don't want to eat, you'll eat it yourself when you're full."
Watching Gao Yuejin leave with the plate, Gao Xinyi smiled at Zhou Chen and said, "Leave her alone, let's eat ours."
Xu Banxia has indeed become more prosperous after the steel price went up. At the same time, his ambitions have also become bigger. After the goods were shipped and the funds were withdrawn, he immediately contacted the Black Sea and started to mobilize the second batch of scrap steel, and this time he wanted it directly.
One hundred thousand tons.
She now has more than 10 million in funds, and borrowed some from Zhao Lei, and then contacted several big brothers from the previous small group to form a partnership and eat the 100,000 tons of scrap steel, but this time the price is
A real forty-five dollars.
And she used the opportunity of this cooperation to deal with Guo Qidong, who had forced her and schemed against her before, and exposed Guo Qidong's false accounting and cheating of Qiu Bi Zheng's money.
Qiu Bi was so angry that he reported Guo Qidong directly, causing Guo Qidong to be arrested by the relevant departments.
When Xu Banxia was in trouble before, many people made trouble, and no one helped. But now that she is in the spotlight, many people have found her, including her own father, who also came to her door shamelessly.
Xu Banxia was very impatient by him, and since they were indeed biological sisters, she spent money to take them to a piano store and bought a piano costing several thousand yuan.
When his youngest daughter was trying out the piano, Xu Youren pulled Xu Banxia aside and explained in a low voice his difficulties and last resort. Xu Banxia had no reaction at all. She had heard too many similar words.
"Sister Qian, I heard from Xiao Chen that you had a boyfriend before, but that man was not a good person and cheated on her, right?"
Xu Banxia's eyes narrowed: "What do you want to say?"
Xu Youren said: "I am your father, so of course I care about you. I heard that you were cheated, and I feel so sad. If I see that kid, I will kill him. You are so good,
Why do you keep meeting those bastards? If you look for a boyfriend in the future, you must keep your eyes open..."
"Okay, okay."
Xu Banxia interrupted Xu Youren impatiently: "Xiao Chen is too talkative. This is my own business, so I don't need you to worry about it."
When it comes to emotional matters, she is used to being independent and doesn't want others to interfere. What's more, her feelings for Zhou Chen are really complicated, with love and hate mixed together, and it's hard to separate.
"Okay, okay, I won't tell you, I won't tell you. If you are free, just go home. Your Aunt Liu and your sister always talk about you."
Xu Banxia didn't believe it at all. She knew exactly who the stepmother Liu Meilan was, and she still talked about her. She was probably talking about the house her mother left to her.
"After you've picked it, I'm going to pay. I'll have something to do later."
"Okay, you're busy, go ahead and do your work, don't worry about us."
…………
Zhou Chen and Gao Xinyi returned to Luzhou together and came to Zhou's house. Zhou Huan and his sister-in-law were very happy to see Zhou Chen and Gao Xinyi returning.
We are brothers, but now that there is no conflict of interest, the brotherly love is naturally better. Even the sister-in-law is very amiable and approachable.
After celebrating his eldest nephew's tenth birthday at the Zhou family, Zhou Chen told Zhou Huan about the trading company.
Zhou Huan immediately said that if Zhou Chen and Gao Xin Yizhen really opened a trading company, he would definitely support them fully, and the resources of his own trading company could also be shared.
The trading company is just a subsidiary to Hengyu Group. Moreover, it only provides a resource platform and is not an excessive request. Therefore, Zhou Huan will naturally not refuse. For him, this is just a matter of convenience.
Just a small thing.
However, on the way back from Luzhou, Gao Xinyi said that she had not thought about opening an international trading company for the time being. She said that she had never done it before and had no confidence. Learning and practice were two completely different concepts. She had not yet
Be prepared.
After Zhou Chen heard this, he was a little disappointed, but he did not persuade her. Instead, he comforted her with a few words.
He proposed to let Gao Xinyi open an international trading company. On the one hand, he wanted Gao Xinyi to do what he likes to do. On the other hand, it was also for the sake of side tasks. He also wanted to be the man behind Gao Xinyi, so he wanted to let Gao Xinyi
Xinyi celebrates success.
Unfortunately, although Gao Xinyi has no enthusiasm for his current job, he also has no ambition, at least not much interest in starting a company.
Zhou Chen doesn't care. It's just a side mission anyway, and he already has an investment target, Xu Banxia. Even if Gao Xinyi doesn't become a strong woman, it won't affect anything. Compared with this, he still hopes to let Gao Xinyi live according to his own ideas.
Time flies by like a flash, and another year passes in the blink of an eye, and we arrive in 1998.
During the Spring Festival of 1998, Zhou Chen spent time with Gao Xinyi, his mother and daughter, and Gao Xinyi’s grandparents.
Gao Xinyi's father's side has had relatively few contacts since her father's death. Normally, the grandparents would call and ask about Gao Xinyi, but Gao Xinyi's grandparents only had one daughter and one granddaughter, so Gao Xinyi's grandparents had only one daughter and one granddaughter.
Xin Yi loves him very much.
Aiwujiwuxia, they also like Zhou Chen who is excellent in all aspects, especially after learning from their daughter that if Zhou Chen and Gao Xinyi get married in the future, their child can be named Gao, the old couple are even more satisfied with Zhou Chen
, he called out his grandson-in-law directly.
Gao Xinyi's grandparents are both about seventy years old. At their age, they have come from that era, so they still attach great importance to inheritance. Even if it is just a surname, in their eyes, it is very important.
matter.
So every time the old couple met, they would urge Zhou Chen and Gao Xinyi to get married early so that they could have more children while they were young and in good health. Gao Xinyi was always said to be very helpless and always excused himself by saying that he was still young.
.
In fact, she is indeed young, only twenty-four years old. Zhou Chen is a little older than her, but only twenty-eight.
In the past year, Xu Banxia, relying on his official connections with the Black Navy, dumped a lot of scrap steel and expanded the company. Now his Banxia Steel Company is well-known in Binhai and even the province.
A small steel company.
In addition to the steel company, her Banxia Yard Terminal has developed rapidly and built the first 10,000-ton private freight terminal in Binhai City, making her even more famous in the Binhai business circle.
As the vice president of the Provincial Heavy Industry Trade Union, Gao Yuejin naturally had a lot of contact with young entrepreneurs like Xu Banxia, but she had never felt sorry for Xu Banxia. On the contrary, she admired Xu Banxia very much, even though Xu Banxia was once
Her daughter's 'love rival'.
On the day of the opening ceremony of Binhai Pinxia Duichang Pier, many people came to the Banxia Duichang Pier to participate in the celebration.
Zhou Chen also came, and he brought Gao Xinyi with him.
To be honest, he didn't plan to come originally, but after Gao Xinyi heard about it, he insisted on coming, and even dragged Zhou Chen along, saying that he had heard Xu Banxia's name this year, so he just took this opportunity.
Have a good meeting.
When Gao Xinyi said that if he didn't go, she would go with her mother, what else could he say.
A woman's heart is like a needle in the sea. If she doesn't satisfy her this time, she may cause trouble in the future. She can only take Gao Xinyi there by herself. He is not afraid anyway.
Today's Banxia Duchang Pier is really lively, with loud drums and music, endless traffic, and many private cars parked in the huge parking lot.
When getting out of the car and going in, Gao Xinyi directly held Zhou Chen's arm, very intimately. Zhou Chen knew what she meant, so he let her go.
Zhou Chen walked along and looked at the huge dock in front of him. He hadn't been here for a long time. Compared with more than a year ago, earth-shaking changes had taken place here.
Chen Yuyu, who was in charge of welcoming the guests, greeted several guests with a smile, looked forward, and suddenly his expression changed suddenly.
"Tong Xiaoqi, Tong Xiaoqi, come here."
"What's wrong?"
Chen Yuyu pointed forward: "Trouble is coming."
Tong Xiaoqi looked in the direction he pointed. The next moment, he became furious and walked over.
"Hey, Tong Xiaoqi, don't be impulsive."
But Tong Xiaoqi had already rushed over, so he could only follow him.
Zhou Chen and Gao Xinyi were walking when suddenly Tong Xiaoqi rushed in front of them.
"Zhou Chen, do you still have the nerve to come here?"
Gao Xinyi looked at Zhou Chen with a puzzled expression: "Do you know him?"
Zhou Chen patted her hand gently and looked at Chen Yuyu, who was following him.
"Long time no see, Xiao Chen, Tong Xiaoqi."
Tong Xiaoqi took a step forward, but was pulled back by Chen Yuyu: "Tong Xiaoqi, don't be stupid. Today is Fatty's big day. If you cause trouble, you will make things difficult for her."
After stopping Tong Xiaoqi, Chen Yuyu said to Zhou Chen with a complex expression: "It's been a long time, but we didn't seem to invite you today, right?"
After saying that, he glanced at Gao Xinyi, who was holding Zhou Chen's arm, and his eyes became more complicated. Zhou Chen came as soon as he came and brought this woman with him. Could it be that he was here to provoke? But he felt that Zhou Chen was sorry for Xu Banxia, but he should also
He doesn't look like such a dishonest person.
Zhou Chen said: "I came here today simply to congratulate you and participate in the celebration."
"I hope so."
Chen Yuyu was very dissatisfied with Zhou Chen for letting Xu Banxia down, but he was also a person who remembered his kindness. Zhou Chen helped them a lot, and it was because of Zhou Chen's great efforts that they could be where they are now, so his attitude towards Zhou Chen was angry and cold, but
Not disgusted.
"We have other guests to entertain, so we won't entertain you."
After saying that, he took the reluctant Tong Xiao and rode away.
"They are Xu Banxia's employees? It seems that you are quite familiar with them." Gao Xinyi turned to Zhou Chen and asked.
Zhou Chen responded softly: "Well, they are all good people."
As soon as she walked inside, Gao Xinyi looked around. She was looking for Xu Banxia. The purpose of her coming today was for Xu Banxia. It had been more than a year since she and Xu Banxia had officially met face to face.
I just saw it a few times on TV news.
She still has a strong curiosity about Xu Banxia, who can charm Zhou Chen and make Zhou Chen never forget him.
"Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhou."
When a middle-aged man saw Zhou Chen, he ran over excitedly and greeted Zhou Chen with a smile on his face.
Zhou Chen was not surprised when he saw him. He just replied politely: "Village Chief, long time no see."
The person who came to say hello was the head of the nearby fishing village. He was very happy to see Zhou Chen.
"I haven't seen Mr. Zhou for a long time. Mr. Zhou must be very busy. I asked Mr. Xu several times and she always said you were busy..."
Suddenly his voice stopped, because he saw Gao Xinyi, who was very close to Zhou Chen, with a look of astonishment on his face.
"Mr. Zhou, who is this?"
"My fiancée."
"ah?"
The village chief's head sank. He was not very smart and had not turned around. Xu Banxia was Zhou Chen's woman. Aren't they a couple? Why did a fiancée appear again? Is this how rich people play?
?
Zhou Chen ignored his surprise and walked forward with Gao Xinyi.
Gao Yuejin, who came to the celebration as an important leader, was talking to several bosses in the Binhai Steel Industry, but suddenly her eyes narrowed and she saw Zhou Chen and Gao Xinyi, and the smile on her face suddenly froze.
