Chu Tianyao drove from the hotel to Rongcheng Commercial Building with Lu Qiuyu.
Compared with Lucheng, Rongcheng, as the provincial capital city, naturally has more companies.
Rongcheng Commercial Building is located in the High-tech Industrial Development Zone, referred to as the High-tech Zone, which was officially established three years ago. It has a planned area of 40 square kilometers and many companies have settled here.
Rongcheng Commercial Building is considered a landmark building, with a total of 28 floors and nearly 20 companies inside.
After Chu Tianyao and Lu Qiuyu arrived at the Rongcheng Commercial Building, they visited the vacant fifteenth floor under the guidance of a real estate agent.
Chu Tianyao hadn't noticed it before just looking at the photos, but when he came here, he realized that the office area on the fifteenth floor was really not small.
The size of the last company that was moved seemed to be quite large, with hundreds of desks in the huge office area, seven or eight independent offices, utility rooms and separate bathrooms.
It would be too wasteful to rent out the entire building and use it as just one office.
"Mr. Chu, our place has just been vacated, and the price is affordable. If you don't rent it, you will miss this village and not have this store."
The female intermediary smiled slightly at Chu Tianyao.
Hearing this, Chu Tianyao asked: "How much is the rent?"
"Our rules here are that the minimum rent is two years, and the annual rent is 40,000. Of course...if you can rent for a longer period, the price can be appropriately discounted." The female intermediary replied from the side.
Hearing this price, Chu Tianyao was not too surprised.
If it were placed in Lucheng, this price would naturally be a bit expensive, but this is in Rongcheng, and it is the most expensive high-tech zone, so this price is not outrageously expensive.
However, the annual rent is 40,000 yuan, which is probably unaffordable for a small business that is just starting out.
"Okay, at this price, I'll rent it for two years...but can you keep all the desks and chairs from your previous company to me?"
Chu Tianyao just took a casual look around. What really satisfied him was the ready-made office equipment in this office building. With these things, he would naturally be saved a lot of trouble.
"It's okay to leave these things to you. Anyway, the last company has left and I probably won't come back."
The female intermediary said indifferently.
After hearing this, Chu Tianyao noticed the situation in the office building. There were still unfinished documents on the desks, and there was a signboard of a certain biotechnology company hanging on the wall.
Looking at this situation, it does look like he is packing up his things and running away.
"Where are the people? Where are the people in this company?"
Just when Chu Tianyao was about to ask why his last company ran away, a slightly excited voice came from the door.
I saw a young man wearing a gray shirt holding a suitcase in his hand. His hair was slightly messy and he seemed to be a little down and out.
"Please tell me, where have all the people in this company gone?"
The man looked at the empty office area and quickly asked Chu Tianyao and others in the room.
"It seems that you have also been deceived by this scam company. Stop looking for it. The rent was due a week ago, and the people in this company have already run away."
The female agent glanced at the young man's desolate appearance and felt a little sympathetic.
When he heard this, the young man's expression suddenly froze, and his red eyes were full of disbelief.
"Impossible. They clearly promised to invest in my project. I traveled thousands of miles from Tianjin to Chengdu. How could they run away?"
Muttering with an unacceptable look on his face, the young man stood there in despair.
Hearing these words, Lu Qiuyu couldn't help but feel that this guy was a little pitiful.
It doesn’t matter if you are deceived, it’s not as simple as being deceived at your doorstep after traveling thousands of miles.
"Young man, just find a class. The people this company deceives are those who want to get rich, but there is no such thing as a pie in the world!"
On the side, the female intermediary said comforting words.
She also has some knowledge about this scam company.
But when he heard these words, the young man froze on the spot with a wry smile on his face.
"I'm not in class anymore. I resigned from school and spent all my savings. Coming to Chengdu to invest this time is my last resort..."
The young man said with a painful look on his face: "If this can't be done, what's the point of living for me?"
Looking out the window on the fifteenth floor, he even had the urge to jump down at this moment.
"Wait a minute, you just said that they plan to invest in your project... I'm a little curious, what kind of projects can you have?"
Just when the man was hesitating whether to commit suicide, Chu Tianyao's voice interrupted his thoughts.
"You don't understand even if I tell you!"
The man turned around and ignored Chu Tianyao. He just opened his suitcase and took out a strange-looking piece of clothing.
It is said to be a piece of clothing, but it has no sleeves or collar, and it doesn't look like a gown. It is just a few strips of braided fabric, but it can be vaguely seen that it can be put on a person's body.
"The investment has not been raised, and the money has been spent. What's the point of keeping these things now!"
The man looked at the things in the suitcase and said with a frustrated look.
But at this moment, Chu Tianyao blurted out:
"Better carry!"
That’s right, it’s the famous Beibeijia from the previous life!
Although this product looked rough at the moment, Chu Tianyao still recognized it at a glance. This thing was the back correction belt that was widely marketed on TV back then.
"What is this? This is a hunchback correction device. It is a nationally certified patented technology and a high-tech product!"
The man didn't seem to understand Chu Tianyao's words and just explained casually.
"Brother, what do you call me?"
Under the confused looks of Lu Qiuyu and the female intermediary, Chu Tianyao walked up with a smile, took out a packet of Chinese medicine from his bag, and handed one to the man.
Seeing Chu Tianyao draw China, the young man was also a little surprised.
He casually took the cigarette and said, "My name is Du Guoying. I come from southern Henan. I have been teaching and educating people for two years."
Speaking with a southern Henan accent, Du Guoying just finished saying this, and after touching her pocket, she realized that she didn't even have a lighter.
Crack!
On the side, Chu Tianyao took the initiative to light a cigarette for Du Guoying.
"Thanks, brother!"
He looked up at Chu Tianyao and found that the other person was about the same age as him. He just thought that Chu Tianyao might be a kid from a rich family.
"How much investment do you plan to raise for this project?"
Chu Tianyao asked with a smile.
Although he was in a bad mood and even wanted to commit suicide just now, seeing Chu Tianyao being so enthusiastic about him, Du Guoying sighed and replied:
"This company promised to invest 300,000 yuan for me before, and I was going to give them half of the shares. Who knew they were actually liars."
The business dream of getting rich overnight was shattered in an instant. No wonder Du Guoying wanted to commit suicide.
At this time, Chu Tianyao, who was standing aside, smiled and patted Du Guoying on the shoulder after hearing these words.
"Lao Du, I voted for this project!"
"What?"
Upon hearing this, before Du Guoying could speak, he was caught off guard and choked on the cigarette, coughing repeatedly.
