Chapter 407: Grandma is so right!
"Zhuang Ning, look at it, how much Yijun has changed in the past few years? This is all your credit, you haven't been here for a few years, the little girl is quiet on weekdays, and she has never been so talkative~"
Li Manrui saw the changes in Zhuang Yijun, and couldn't help but sincerely praise the old classmates around her.
"Ahem, her personality is just not pleasant, what is she doing so calmly at a young age, she is not lively and cute at all!" Zhuang Ning couldn't help but praise after being praised.
"What's so good about being lively and cute, you see Anne talked a lot when she was a child, but now it's becoming less and less!" Li Manrui couldn't help but count down her daughter.
"That's because Anne has grown up, and the little girl is starting to have something on her mind~"
Emma looked at Annie Li, who had been helping to take care of Xiaobei's meals, and couldn't help but speak.
"Yes, our Anne will be almost 18 years old in the blink of an eye, really fast!" Grandma Li also sighed.
"Oh, it's really, Anne is so old, you see! When I first saw her, she seemed to be the size of Little Beibei, and she screamed sister behind Yijun. Zhuang Ning said with a smile.
"I'm going to college next semester!" Anne Li couldn't help but say as she watched the group of them sigh because of her.
"Yo, by the way, Anne is going to college next academic year, is the school decided? Won't you go to NYU like Daniel?
"It's not NYU Sister Alice, I applied for Harvard, and I want to go to a farther place to see~" Li Anne said with a touch of independence and confidence on her face.
"Harvard! Oh, look at it, this girl is so ambitious, just like your mother, she has been high-spirited since she was a child!" Zhuang Ning hurriedly praised when she heard this.
"Originally, girls have to be more ambitious, they have academic qualifications and knowledge, what is more important than anything! If you find a good job in the future, you can also get ahead!" Grandma Li also said.
"Grandma is so right, you see that the Minister of Transportation before us is also a woman and Chinese, maybe I can become the next Minister of Transportation!
"I said girl, your heart is too high, right? If you go to Harvard, you will go to Harvard, and you are still going to politics?"
Li Manrui couldn't help but be surprised when she heard Li Annie have this idea for the first time.
"Mom, what time is this, you don't still have prejudices between men and women!" retorted Anne Lee.
"Auntie, I think Anne's idea is very good, it seems that your family will have a political leader in the future!" Zhuang Yijun listened silently for a long time, and finally couldn't help but smile and speak.
........................
Women have women's topics, men have men's worlds, and several men sit at the end of the table and talk about topics that belong to men.
Old man Li recently had a mild stroke, sitting there eating the dishes that Lin Zitan gave him from time to time, and only listened to everyone happily from beginning to end.
Zhang Jing and his father-in-law don't talk much together on weekdays, but because Lin Zi is by his side, they chatted very harmoniously that night.
"How is Joseph's business lately?" Lin Zitan said.
"It's not good, there are a lot of companies that have gone bankrupt now, but a few new companies bought before the epidemic have smashed their hands and are dismantling and preparing to sell quickly! ”
Joseph took a sip of wine and said with a somber face.
"No matter how big the business is, you must also pay attention to your health, anyway, it is not your company that is in a depression now!" Zhang Jing couldn't help but speak.
In fact, since Joseph recovered from his illness, Alice has been very worried about her father's health, and if it weren't for the sporadic cases of the epidemic in New York, they would have planned to return with their children for a few months.
"I'm fine now, I'll be done with the things at hand, don't worry!" Joseph said quickly.
"Are you saying that you are now trapped with funds, do you need our help?" Lin Zitan asked tentatively.
"Hmm, didn't you want to participate in the acquisition of new energy before?" said Joseph in surprise.
"I'm still not interested in new energy, but I've been a little interested in acquiring potential companies lately. Lin Zitan said bluntly.
"Our industry is called venture capital, why are people like you who like to work steadily and steadily, suddenly interested again?"
Joseph still couldn't understand Lin Zitan a little.
"No matter what kind of investment it is, what can make money is good business, and now the economy is so sluggish, but now is also a great opportunity, isn't it?"
Lin Zitan picked up the wine glass in front of him and said with a faint smile.
"Okay, I'll get Jimmy when I have time, let's have a good talk. ”
After Joseph sensed Lin Zitan's investment intention, the gloomy atmosphere just now was immediately swept away.
In the past few years, he and Jimmy's venture capital firm have been doing well.
If it weren't for the epidemic, they originally planned to start preparing at the end of 2020, and they would have been listed at the end of 21, who knew that an epidemic would destroy their previous foundation all of a sudden.
Now he and Jimmy are hitting a bottleneck, and a lot of money is tied up in a previous project that is about to be sold.
The Great Depression caused by the epidemic, many companies with great potential were also on the verge of collapse, and it was the time for them to show their talents, but unfortunately because of lack of funds, they could only sigh.
If Lin Zitan can be pulled into the gang at this time, they can really do a big job!
Although it has experienced another financial winter, the damage to people like Lin Zitan, who rely on real estate to eat, is basically not particularly bad.
"Haven't you ever thought about returning to China for development? Oh, I mean Daniel, you look at your previous investment in China, and now the housing prices over there are more than 10,000 square meters, and the apartments we sold are now making hundreds of thousands of dollars as soon as they change hands!
Although everyone experienced a low ebb last year, the speed of China's economic recovery is really amazing.
It's like the ice that was originally frozen melted in an instant, look at which country in the world can compete with our national strength now!" Zhang Jing said proudly.
"I know this, but people like me who are used to staying abroad will definitely not be accustomed to the soil when they go back, not to mention that the domestic situation is too complicated.
I'm not as smooth as you, the key is that your parents and relatives have deep roots in the country.
Occasionally, I will follow you to make a small investment, if you can't eat meat, just drink some soup, and forget about returning to China to make a lot of money!" Lin Zitan shook his head and said.
"Look at what you said, isn't buddy's foundation your foundation? As long as you are willing, I will pave the way for you!" Zhang Jinghao said angrily.
"Thank you, brother, forget it!"
Lin Zitan looked at his long-time friend, and after the glass of wine in his hand just went down, the righteousness of the rivers and lakes became more and more revealed.
In recent years, Zhang Jing has indeed gotten better and better in China, and it can be seen from his gestures that he is full of the atmosphere of a superior!
This kid has long since changed from the original rich second generation to a veritable successful businessman.
The reason why Lin Zitan was busy refusing to go back to invest was actually like what he said, after so many years abroad, he felt that he had lost touch with his country.
Occasionally, when he talked to Zhang Jing on the phone about something, he always felt that he couldn't keep up with Zhang Jing's rhythm, and this kind of uncontrollable control of the unknown made him dare not make the decision to return to China easily!
