Chapter 365: Going the Lady Route
"Sister, look at him."
Yang Wanying received a very perfunctory good night from Chen Jianghe. She was so angry that she handed the phone to her sister Yang Wanqing, and rolled around on the bed, looking a little childish.
"Isn't this quite normal?"
Yang Wanqing put down Jane Eyre in her hand, glanced at the chat records on QQ casually, and a beautiful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Yang Wanying stopped rolling around, pouted her face and moved closer to her sister, asking suspiciously, "Is this normal? Has he done something even worse to you?"
"No." Yang Wanqing smiled and shook her head.
Yang Wanying looked at her sister and said, "I suspect there is, but you just don't think it's excessive subconsciously."
"Maybe." Yang Wanqing didn't argue. She reached out and picked up the book she had just read. She lowered her head to avoid her sister's gaze and said, "Go to bed early. You still have work to do tomorrow. I'll read for a while before going to bed."
"oh."
Yang Wanying uttered a muffled "oh", lifted the quilt and crawled under it. After a moment of silence, she stood up again, took a photo of her sister with her phone and sent it to Chen Jianghe, muttering softly, "I told you to just pretend to be nice to me, now let's see if you can sleep."
Yang Wanqing raised her head, stared at her sister for a long time, and silently covered her legs in the air with the quilt.
"?"
Chen Jianghe received the picture sent by Yang Wanying, looked at it carefully, and then sent her a question mark.
Yang Wanying: "Why, doesn't it look good?"
Chen Jianghe: "It looks good, but it has no soul."
Yang Wanying: "What do you mean?"
Chen Jianghe: "It's too dark, I can't see the details clearly."
Yang Wanying: …
"Let's talk about something serious. What are you doing in Shanghai?" Yang Wanying appropriately changed the subject.
"Come to find someone destined to be with me." Chen Jianghe replied.
"Could your destined person be my sister?" Yang Wanying deliberately speculated.
"Why don't you talk about yourself?" Chen Jianghe asked with a smile.
Yang Wanying smiled brightly: "I'm not that narcissistic."
"Then do you know Dr. Wang Yuan from Microsoft Research Asia?" Chen Jianghe asked in typing.
"know."
Yang Wanying blinked, and perhaps because typing was too troublesome, she simply called Chen Jianghe: "I'm not very familiar with Dr. Wang herself, but I'm quite familiar with her wife. We played mahjong together before."
"Huh?" Chen Jianghe was a little surprised.
But on second thought, as a senior executive of Red Rock Capital China Foundation, it is very reasonable for Yang Wanying to have some connection with Microsoft Research Asia, and it is also reasonable for .
"The destined person you mentioned on QQ just now is Dr. Wang?" Yang Wanying asked with a smile.
"Yes." Chen Jianghe did not hide it.
"As far as I know, several top Internet companies in China are in contact with him, including Huawei and Ali Group."
Yang Wanying said: "Your light chasers are growing very fast, but they are still several steps behind the top in the country, and lack the appeal to talents of Dr. Wang's level."
"I know, so I plan to find another way." Chen Jianghe said with a smile.
Yang Wanying raised her thin curved eyebrows slightly: "Do you want to go the wife route?"
"You're so smart, Sister Wanying." Chen Jianghe praised.
"Humph!" Yang Wanying snorted. "You are younger than me, so you are not allowed to call me sister! Please call me by my full name, Yang Wanying."
Chen Jianghe nodded: "Okay, sister."
…
Before Chen Jianghe came to Shanghai, he had anticipated that this trip might involve a head-on encounter with the Ali Group.
Sure enough, on the afternoon of September 12, Mr. Ma arrived in Shanghai with three senior executives from the founding team and personally visited Dr. Wang Yuan.
However, Mr. Ma's trip was not as smooth as expected.
"Dr. Wang's intention to cooperate with us has become much weaker than in the previous meetings." On the way back to the hotel, Teacher Ma frowned slightly.
"It must be that other companies offered higher salaries," said Cai Yunsen, Chief Financial Officer of Ali Group, who was traveling with us.
Mr. Ma thought for a moment and said, "There are only a handful of companies in China that are interested in getting involved in the cloud service field . After much thought, the only company that is willing to invest as much in research funding as we do is Mr. Ren from Shenzhen."
"There is also Mr. Chen from East Guangdong." Cai Yunsen reminded.
"Mr. Chen from Guangdong?"
Teacher Ma couldn't remember which Mr. Chen it was for a moment. After looking at Cai Yunsen, he suddenly realized, "You are talking about Chen Jianghe, right? He has been very active this year."
"Chen Jianghe registered a cloud computing company in eastern Guangdong with a registered capital of 1 billion yuan and also acquired two plots of land." Cai Yunsen pushed his glasses and said, "He should be in Shanghai now."
"It looks like they came prepared."
Teacher Ma stroked his chin and thought for a moment, then said, "No wonder Dr. Wang's intention to cooperate has faded. It turns out that our efficiency is slow and we lack core competitiveness."
"Fortunately, we are not too late." Cai Yunsen said with a smile.
Teacher Ma nodded and decided, "Let's have dinner with Dr. Wang tonight to improve efficiency."
"How about asking Chen Jianghe to come out for a meeting?" Cai Yunsen suggested.
"That's not necessary."
Teacher Ma shook his head: "Although the boy is young, he is a smart guy. Meeting him in advance will only expose our cards. It is better to wait until the dust settles before inviting him for a cup of coffee."
That night, Teacher Ma invited Dr. Wang to dinner.
At the same time, Chen Jianghe came to Dr. Wang's residence with gifts and visited his lover Li Qiutong under the introduction of Yang Wanying.
Ms. Li Qiutong is 42 years old and is a collector who has in-depth research on antiques, calligraphy and paintings.
This time when Chen Jianghe came here, he specially bought a few things from the flea market and brought two genuine antiques with him. After dinner, he asked Ms. Li to help him identify them.
Ms. Li, wearing glasses, carefully and meticulously examined the items that Chen Jianghe handed over. After a moment, she smiled and affirmed, "Young people have good taste. These small items are all good things that are a bit old."
Hearing this, Chen Jianghe smiled and took out a small vase: "Can you help me take a look at this? The owner of the antique shop said it was an item from the Qianlong period, but I don't think it looks like it was made the day before yesterday."
"Then why are you still buying it?" Li Qiutong glanced at Chen Jianghe.
"It's mainly cheap." Chen Jianghe scratched his head and said honestly, "The boss offered 18,000 yuan, and I offered 200 yuan, and he sold it directly."
"You bargained for the price with your Azure Dragon Crescent Blade, right?"
When Li Qiutong heard what Chen Jianghe said, she knew that the young man had been cheated. However, looking at the style and color of the small vase, it really had some of the style of the Qianlong period, so she couldn't help but take it and take a closer look.
Li Qiutong studied it carefully, and finally went into the house and took out a piece from her collection for comparison. She nodded and said, "This is indeed a porcelain from the Qianlong period."
"Yeah?"
Chen Jianghe looked surprised.
Yang Wanying, who was standing nearby, almost burst out laughing when she saw how realistically he acted.
At this time, Chen Jianghe took out the last thing and handed it to Li Qiutong solemnly.
Li Qiutong thought it was a priceless treasure at first, but when she opened it she laughed: "This picture of a tiger descending the mountain is quite interesting, especially the word 'ao' at the corner of the tiger's mouth, which is quite charming."
Chen Jianghe's face turned red. "To be honest, this is my work. I'm sorry for showing it off."
"You are quite talented, kid."
Li Qiutong had a gentle smile and a simple compliment invisibly brought the two people closer together.
After appreciating the items, Yang Wanying looked at her watch and said to Ms. Li with a smile, "It's still early, and we're short of one person. How about calling my sister over to play mahjong with us?"
"Your sister is also in Shanghai?" Li Qiutong was a little surprised.
"Yes. " Yang Wanying said with a smile: "She has always been thinking about Teacher Li."
Li Qiutong smiled and nodded: "Call her over."
At 11 o'clock in the evening, the mahjong game ended. Chen Jianghe, who had lost a lot of money, pawned all the antiques he had brought, including the painting of a tiger descending the mountain, to Ms. Li Qiutong.
