Luo Xiyun was nagging him nonchalantly. When she heard something moving in the bedroom, she quickly finished the few remaining dumplings on the plate, took out a piece of paper to wipe her mouth and hands, and said, "I'll give them to them."
Clean up, you wash the dishes first."
"Hey, this girl's consciousness is not low recently!" Xia Zekai thought to himself.
He is also happy to give his wife a chance to express herself.
After all, if his wife does more work, he can do less work.
In the morning, even though Luo Xiyun wanted to send Yatou and Tongtong to kindergarten, she didn't have the time.
Although Yatou and Tongtong didn't wake up too late, they still had to do ink at home for more than ten or twenty minutes before going out. If they were sent to kindergarten, Luo Xiyun would be late.
In the end, it was Xia Zekai's job. He and his two girls walked slowly to the kindergarten.
When leaving the kindergarten, he found that Wang Deshun still hadn't shown up. Good guy, it will be two weeks in one day. Is he planning to stay at his sister's house?
At the same time, Zhang Yiming and Liang Rubo were sitting on the high-speed train that started from Beijing and ended in Jicheng, preparing to go to Qicheng, the intermediate station, to find Xia Zekai.
The two of them were brothers who slept together. Zhang Yiming officially ended his entrepreneurial journey on Fanfou.com in August. After parting ways with Wang Xing, he brought Liang Rubo over and started the entrepreneurial journey of Jiujiufang together.
On the high-speed train, Zhang Yiming sat on the chair by the window with deep thoughts. He twisted half of his body and looked at the rapidly regressing scenery outside the window, with many thoughts in his mind.
But these whimsical ideas have to give in in the face of the most realistic money.
"I just hope this time passes and we can get a good result." Zhang Yiming murmured to himself.
Liang Rubo is sitting opposite him. They are about the same age. They are both college students who graduated in 2005. They have just entered the society for four years. This is when they are most energetic. They also have dreams and dare to think and work hard.
When you dare.
But the face of the good brother opposite him didn't look full of passion at all. Instead, he had a heavy heart on his face.
"Yiming, you don't have to think too much. If we go there this time, it's okay if it doesn't work. I'll think of other ways and I can always get some money first." Liang Rubo advised him.
Zhang Yiming turned his head, held up the glasses frame on Bi's face with his hand, and a smile appeared on his face like magic. He said nonchalantly: "Old Liang, I understand, don't worry."
"It would be best if we can reach an agreement with Boss Xia this time. If it really doesn't work out, I'm going to contact Mr. Wang from Haina Asia again," Zhang Yiming said.
When Liang Rubo heard this name, his face was filled with indignation. He said: "But their bid is too dark and there is no sincerity at all."
"I know, but the situation is stronger than the people. We are a vulnerable group now and have nothing to offer. Jiujiufang has just started and there are no results yet." At this point, he emphasized his tone and suddenly said: "
To put it bluntly, you and I both know that Jiujiufang has a promising future, but it is worthless now."
"If we can't get any more money, we won't even be able to pay wages. If we can get through this month, how many people are willing to follow us if we don't pay wages next month?"
, can you still endure it? What should I do?"
When Liang Rubo heard what he said, he was silent for a while and then made a suggestion: "If it's really not possible, go to a bank for a loan!"
Zhang Yiming shook his head: "Without collateral, Jiujiu Fang is worthless now, and the bank won't recognize it, so you won't get much money."
Liang Rubo sighed and said, "But don't put too much pressure on yourself. There is always a way to solve everything."
"Besides, Jiujiufang needs you now. If you fall, it will be gone."
Zhang Yiming didn't speak anymore. He kept staring out the window, as if he wanted to see through its secrets.
More than four hours later, the high-speed train from Beijing stopped at Qicheng Railway Station for 4 minutes.
Zhang Yiming and Liang Rubo also got off the bus with their luggage. They followed the flow of people out of the train station. As soon as they left the door, they experienced a wave of long-lasting urine smell. The strong smell of urea made them choke.
They both started coughing immediately.
They quickly ran away from the place. The two of them took a look and went up the spiral staircase in the square in front of the station.
In the square in front of the station, I looked at the funnel-shaped road design on the opposite side and the buildings on both sides of the road. On the left hand side, there is the Rose Hotel, which is more than 20 stories high. It looks pretty decent. There is also this "Tian Paradise" hanging next to it.
brand, the others are not worth mentioning.
There is only a row of two-story buildings on the right. From their position, the plaques hanging on these two-story buildings are all messy and inconsistent.
Liang Rubo frowned slightly: "Yiming, are you sure we're not in the wrong place? Is that Boss Xia really here? Is he really rich?"
These are the three questions of Liang Rubo’s soul!
Zhang Yiming opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything. He finally said: "Lao Liang, this is my first time here too. I really don't know what this city is like, but the place we saw is just a small part of the place. Maybe it's all the same."
The most prosperous part of the city is not here at all."
"Besides, how many cities have you seen where the train station is in the most prosperous center of the city?"
This is true, and Liang Rubo no longer worries about it.
He asked: "Then where are we going next?"
"I'll call him and ask." Zhang Yiming said.
Liang Rubo was stunned on the spot. He was dumbfounded and asked, "You haven't told him we're coming yet?"
"I called before and said I would come over, but I didn't say I would come today." Zhang Yiming was also a little embarrassed, so he ignored the matter.
The next moment, when Liang Rubo stared at him, Zhang Yiming took out his cell phone, found Xia Zekai's number and dialed to cover up his embarrassment.
…
When Xia Zekai received a call from Zhang Yiming, he was discussing with Lu Huan at the Jingtong Food Factory about signing a contract and starting construction of the new factory.
The general framework of the signing contract has been finalized, but there are still some details to be added, and Lu Hao will do this now.
"Lao Lu, finalize it as soon as possible. The land has been in panic for a month, and I have paid off the loan for a month. I can't pay it back next month in vain," Xia Zekai said.
Hearing what the boss said, Lu Chen was really embarrassed. He quickly nodded and agreed to the job.
Now that everything that needs to be discussed is finished, it is time to finalize the details of the contract, which is easy to do.
While the two were talking, Xia Zekai's cell phone rang. He took it over and saw that it was Zhang Yiming's number.
"I'll answer the phone first." Xia Zekai said to Lu Huan.
After he answered Zhang Yiming's call, he listened to Zhang Yiming asking where he was and where they were going by taxi.
Xia Zekai suddenly looked confused and confused.
Good guy, the future big boss of ByteDance, the most valuable business elite under 40 years old on the Forbes list, is he in such a miserable state now?
Do you have to take a taxi to get around?
Thinking so, Xia Zekai still told him the address of the factory, and finally said: "I'm at this intersection. If you come over and see a sign saying 'Jingtong Food Factory', then it's mine."
"Okay, Boss Xia, we'll see you later." Zhang Yiming said politely.
They took the high-speed train from Beijing at around six o'clock in the morning, and it was almost eleven o'clock when they got off the bus. They took a taxi and rushed to the 'Jingtong Food Factory', and more than twenty minutes passed.
After getting off the taxi, they paid and asked the driver to drive away first. Zhang Yiming and Liang Rubo looked at the small workshop and factory in front of them, and then looked at the sign erected on the roadside that read 'Jingtong Food Factory'
'The light box sign with five big characters, they looked at each other.
"Yiming, are you sure this is really here? Didn't we go to the wrong place?" Liang Rubo asked him again and again.
Zhang Yiming looked at this dilapidated place, and he was a little suspicious, but the 'Jingtong Food Factory' was right, so how rich was Boss Xia?
Xia Zekai was in the office and saw Zhang Yiming and Liang Rubo standing outside through the glass. He was relatively unfamiliar with Liang Rubo, but Zhang Yiming's face was quite recognizable.
The next moment, he greeted him out of the office. Apart from anything else, the reputation of being a hospitable Jidong person cannot be lost.
"Mr. Zhang, it's time for you. Hurry up and invite us to the room." After seeing them, Xia Zekai hurriedly greeted them.
He also pointed at Liang Rubo and asked Zhang Yiming: "Mr. Zhang, who is that?"
"Ah, Boss Xia, this is my college classmate. His name is Liang Rubo. Now he and I are working on the development of Jiujiu Fang. We are good brothers who have a close relationship." Zhang Yiming introduced him like this.
Liang Rubo didn't seem to talk much in front of outsiders. He smiled and said hello to Xia Zekai and that was it.
"Mr. Liang, hello, hello. Nice to meet you!" Xia Zekai extended his hand to Liang Rubo enthusiastically.
This move made Liang Rubo a little confused. Do you know me?
Xia Zekai really knows Liang Rubo, the dignified father of Douyin. Even if he has never met him in person, would he still know him when he hears this name?
In addition to him, there will be Zhang Xiaolong, the father of WeChat, in a few years. These are two names that Xia Zekai remembers very clearly, mainly due to the two products WeChat a few years later and Douyin, which exploded ten years later.
It claims to have more than a billion user groups around the world, with daily active users of 7 to 8 billion.
It's a pity that those are epoch-making products. Even though he knew they would be very popular in the future, he couldn't make them into finished products.
Simply put, the hardware supporting facilities are not complete, and he has no technical accumulation. Just knowing what WeChat and Douyin are is of no use.
"Mr. Zhang, Mr. Liang, let's go to my office first." Xia Zekai greeted them.
This suddenly made Liang Rubo feel embarrassed. He said: "Boss Xia, I am just the engineer responsible for modeling in Jiujiufang."
"Oh, that's Mr. Liang. It's okay. Let's go back to the house quickly." Xia Zekai didn't care about this.
