Chapter 318: Young people have no edge, but are they still young people?
In the evening.
My aunt's blind date for the day came to an end. Chen Jianghe took a New Year gift box and visited his four uncles' homes, then drove to Shenzhen.
At this time, Nanshan, Shenzhen.
"Director Lin, I hope you can understand that we are not here to discuss with you, but to inform you clearly that our boss Zhao is determined to become the major shareholder of Anxia Group. You can't stop us, so there is no need to struggle in vain."
Lin Zheping's reception room was filled with smoke. Several guests in suits were sitting on the sofa. The one who spoke was the woman sitting in the middle. She wore black-framed glasses and had her hair combed neatly to her ears. She looked like the company secretary.
"After all these years, Lao Zhao is still as overbearing as before."
Lin Zheping smiled, took a few puffs of his cigarette, looked at the woman with interest, and listened patiently to what she had to say.
"Don't misunderstand, Mr. Lin."
The woman went on to say, "Boss Zhao is very nostalgic. He has left you a way out. First, choose a side in advance, and second, hand over all your shares and take the money and leave. Both are good options."
"Then I really have to thank Lao Zhao."
Lin Zheping flicked the ash off his cigarette and said with a half-smile, "The Zhao Group has been in the financial circle for more than a decade. It is indeed powerful and has strong backers, but it is still far behind the state-owned enterprises behind Anxia."
“It’s far from it.”
The woman did not deny it. She smiled and said, "But Director Lin's Anxia Group is just a scrap of the state-owned enterprise investment sector. You should know very well that in the current capital market, as long as you are willing to sacrifice your life, you can dethrone the emperor, let alone Anxia, whose stock price continues to fall."
"If you voluntarily withdraw , at least you can still maintain your dignity." The woman said with a smile.
Lin Zheping put out his cigarette, his expression was indifferent, but there was a sharpness in his eyes: "Go back and tell Lao Zhao that I don't need respectability, I just want to see how much money he can come up with to bring me down."
…
At seven o'clock in the evening, Chen Jianghe drove to the gate of the Lin family villa with familiarity.
As soon as the car stopped, footsteps were heard from the second floor, followed by the barking of a dog. Chen Jianghe got out of the car and looked up, and saw the secretary and her Pomeranian.
"Little Box, Daddy is here, are you happy?"
Lin Siqi picked up the Pomeranian, whispered to it, and then said to Chen Jianghe with a smile: "Boss, you are here on time. It's time for dinner at home."
Chen Jianghe smiled and said, "I calculated the time and came here accurately."
As soon as he finished speaking, the servant came over to open the door, and Lin Zheping walked out of the living room to personally greet his "son-in-law".
Chen Jianghe took out two large boxes of top-grade Wanxiang from the trunk and strode towards Lin Zheping.
"Go home for a meal and bring gifts?" Lin Zheping asked him with a smile.
Chen Jianghe explained: "This is Wanxiang, which has the effect of calming the mind and helping sleep."
Lin Zheping raised his eyebrows, and the faint dark circles under his eyes were covered by a smile. He thought that Chen Jianghe was so thoughtful in giving gifts, no wonder his daughter was obsessed with him.
There were many guests at the Lin family tonight, and Liu Yanqiu was entertaining them. Before dinner, Lin Zheping brought Chen Jianghe into the reception room, and Lin Siqi also ran down from the second floor to find him with a happy face.
"This should be Siqi's boyfriend, Chen Jianghe, the president of the Light Chaser Company. He's really handsome."
Among the many relatives and friends of the Lin family, there was a sharp-eyed person who glanced at Chen Jianghe who walked into the reception room side by side with Lin Zheping, and revealed his identity in one sentence.
Others also looked at him sideways, and most of them showed admiration in their eyes. He was young and handsome, and was the president of a popular Internet company. Such a young man would be dazzling wherever he went.
However, some people scoffed at this and muttered quietly: "He is just a delivery man."
The person who said this was a young man of the same age as Chen Jianghe, named Zhang Miao. As soon as he said this, his father Zhang Huainan, who was sitting next to him, glared at him fiercely and scolded him in a low voice: "He is still a college student, but he has built a company with a valuation of over 500 million US dollars. You took the 100 million yuan I gave you and opened stores everywhere, but eight out of ten failed and you lost more than 50 million a year. How dare you criticize him?"
“The valuations of Internet companies are all fake.”
Zhang Miao shrugged, glanced at Chen Jianghe, then turned to his father and said, "The overall environment is not good now. It's hard to run a physical store, and it's even harder to run an Internet company. I have a few friends who were clamoring to become a listed company at the beginning of last year, but suddenly stopped talking at the end of the year. This year, they said they were going to disband the team and start other businesses."
"Ahem." Zhang Huainan coughed twice, signaling his son to shut up.
Unfortunately, Zhang Miao turned a blind eye to it, and even asked Chen Jianghe with a provocative smile: "Mr. Chen, was I right just now?"
"Yes, I am indeed a food delivery man, and the company's valuation is also fake."
Chen Jianghe smiled and nodded: "But you need to change your habit of always blaming the environment for being bad. After all, you don't look like someone who can destroy the environment."
Zhang Miao stared at him, speechless for a moment. After holding it in for a long time, he said unconvincedly: "The takeaway industry is about to change. I heard from a friend that Nuomi Group Buying has acquired 9527 Company. Two against one, how long can your Light Chaser last?"
"Your friends are well-informed."
Chen Jianghe still had a smile on his face: "Didn't he tell you by the way that my Light Chaser just raised 1 billion yuan?"
Hearing this, Zhang Miao suddenly felt a little bit of a toothache. The valuation of an Internet company may be virtual, but the financing is real.
Light Chaser received US$120 million in its Series B financing, which is less than 1 billion. However, with Chen Jianghe's current confidence, no one would doubt it if he said it was 1 billion.
"Boss, you're so sharp." Lin Siqi liked her boss's sharp look the most and praised him softly in his ear.
In fact, Lin Zheping also admires this point of his "son-in-law". He is humble when he should be humble, and draws the sword when he should draw the sword. If a young man does not have a sharp edge, is he still a young man?
However, since they are guests, it is enough to just chat for a while. There is no need to be too confrontational. Lin Zheping smiled and said, "All industries have indeed encountered difficulties this year. Even if they have received financing, they cannot be proud. They must be down-to-earth and develop steadily."
Hearing this, Lin Siqi smiled and said, "Dad, don't worry, my boss has always been steady in his work."
"Dinner is ready, everyone come and eat~"
At this time, Liu Yanqiu's voice came from the restaurant.
"Come on, let's go and have dinner." Lin Zheping stood up and greeted the guests.
Lin Siqi held Chen Jianghe's hand and walked towards the restaurant.
"Does that boy like you just now?" Chen Jianghe turned his head and asked in a low voice.
"How do you know?" Lin Siqi blinked.
Chen Jianghe shrugged and whispered in Lin Siqi's ear: "You're against me right away. You're either taking the wrong medicine or you're a love rival."
"No wonder you don't spoil him at all."
Lin Siqi smiled and said, "I have poor eyesight and a small mind. I can't see anyone chasing me. I only have you in my eyes and only have room for you in my heart."
"I suspect you mixed honey into your love words. They're so sweet." Chen Jianghe said with a smile.
"It's even sweeter, do you want to try it?" Lin Siqi smiled sweetly.
Chen Jianghe's heart was filled with emotion, but he said, "Let's eat first..."
The two of them were whispering and behaving intimately. Zhang Miao, who was walking behind them, saw it and felt as if he had a piece of lemon in his mouth, sour.
