Chapter 81: A Few Years Later

After tossing for most of the day to return to Harvard University, Zhang Xiaokai took a plane back by himself, and his father invited someone to pick him up at the airport.

As soon as I went back, I devoted myself to the final review life, and the days passed very quickly.

As planned after returning home, father and son went on holiday to Australia during the Christmas season of 2011.

I went to XN and Melbourne, it wasn't as interesting as I imagined, the natural beauty and the sea that people like, etc., Oregon has it, the only thing worth commendating is probably the Great Barrier Reef, the scenery of that sea is really wonderful.

————————————

2012 is quietly coming.

Cattle and sheep continue to be raised in the spring, fattening in the fall, and sale in the winter.

Not much of a big event happened for the rest of the year, the second year, and the third year as well.

There are only a few things that Zhang Xiaokai remembers.

For example, he published two more books, which did not sell well.

For example, the Cleveland Ranch resort has opened, and the fruit trees have been harvested.

For example, a movie about a plane crash was released, but he didn't watch it, and the box office seemed to be quite good.

There are more than 700 million US dollars in the world, and the producers and distributors must have earned it, but they didn't talk about sharing it at the beginning, and these profits have nothing to do with Zhang Xiaokai.

I didn't fall in love, I didn't study badly, I didn't complain or appreciate life, I just lived quietly, looked back and savored carefully, and I could find some small surprises from time to time.

It took two years to get a bachelor's degree, and he felt that he was not ready to enter the society, Zhang Xiaokai spent another two years to get a master's degree, and he was very serious in the first two years, as for the entire graduate period, he didn't work hard, he wrote a book, and he was not ready to publish it.

It's already 2015 in a blink of an eye.

This year's graduation ceremony was very boring for Zhang Xiaokai, who had gradually grown tired of school life half a year ago, and did not look for a job internship like his classmates in the last semester, but only stayed in the dormitory all day, or drove to New York and Boston to live for a while.

Seventeen years old.

Smoothly grew into a big guy.

I will buy a razor to shave, and like other people my age, I will go to parties and bars from time to time to experience a new life.

He was handsome, and he was about to turn eighteen in a little more than a month, and when he packed his bags and handed most of the packages to the post office to send home, his graduation trip began.

The car is a convertible version of the Bentley Continental, I sat in this kind of car when I was a child, and was taken by Mr. Lamber, after getting my driver's license, I bought one because I liked it, and spent a total of more than 300,000 US dollars.

Zhang Xiaokai's own money.

In fact, he is very rich now, Cleveland Ranch aside, only invested in two projects during Harvard University, Mike Wang sold the "My Racing" game at the end of last year, and successfully got more than 60 million US dollars, Zhang Xiaokai also got more than 30 million US dollars, not so much after paying taxes, but it has made him not have to worry about money.

Let's look at the "Harvard Restaurant" project at that time.

It's just a small website on the verge of bankruptcy, I don't know when it opened to MIT, and I don't know when it expanded to Boston, New York, Philadelphia and other East Coast cities.

Zhang Xiaokai didn't care much, and after he was too busy, he asked lawyers and professional managers to help, and went to the NASDAQ exchange in a daze at the beginning of this year, standing in front of everyone and ringing the bell together.

By the time he graduated, the total market value was more than 400 million US dollars, of which more than 30% of the shares belonged to him.

The money came too easily, these two projects made money, the ranch also made money, and even the trust account that was not managed at all, the more than 20 million US dollars deposited in it rolled to nearly 100 million US dollars.

So before leaving, he went to the president's office and gave him a check for tens of millions of dollars, saying that he wanted to help students who really had difficulties get into Harvard.

Accumulated hundreds of millions of dollars in a daze, unlike others, he looked at money quite indifferently, feeling that he couldn't spend too much money at all, and naturally there was no need to have too much, so he donated a total of more than 20 million dollars one after another.

Some are churches, some are orphanages, and even wandering singers who really have dreams, as well as old people shivering in the cold wind, have all received gifts from Zhang Xiaokai, and his father never cares about these things.

Some classmates thought he was very strange, but in fact, Zhang Xiaokai had a strange personality.

After being at Harvard for so long, there were always a few friends, and more often people saw him, only to see him walking alone with headphones on.

is a little withdrawn, but it does not prevent his classmates from knowing that he is a very friendly person, and he has become a popular figure in the school in the first two years, but he is still the same, even if he bought a convertible Bentley sports car last year, it is difficult for people to think that he is flamboyant, and he can be regarded as one of the legends of Harvard.

Some people speculate that he is not as indifferent to fame and fortune as he seems on the surface, and some people revealed that they saw how Mike Wang begged Zhang Xiaokai to invest in his own game, and then let it go, it was really just luck.

Mike Wang and the founder of the Harvard restaurant would praise Zhang Xiaokai in interviews, saying that he was a very good investor, in fact, both of them had asked Zhang Xiaokai to help, but he was not interested in doing business, and repeatedly refused, as if playing games or reading books was more interesting than being on the cover of a magazine.

It's ridiculous to say that Zhang Xiaokai only knows that the Harvard restaurant has several offices, and he doesn't even know where the headquarters is.

As he grew older, the door in his heart gradually closed, not that he couldn't open it, but he just felt that it was unnecessary, and since the material troubles were solved, he lived more desirelessly......

Driving away from the campus, he could hear the principal telling the students about his donation, Zhang Xiaokai smiled knowingly, stretched his hand out of the car window and shook it, and said goodbye to Xiao Gejun, who was growing up and was still ready to stay at Harvard as a teacher.

After living under the same roof for so many years, there must be feelings, but it's not that there is no chance to see each other again in the future, so it's not so sad.

The white convertible drove to New York, ready to explore the East Coast first, then turn around and go straight to California, then drive all the way back to the Cleveland Ranch, where you can rest for a while, and then plan your trip around the world.

I refueled at the gas station, and there were more than 10 million US dollars in the SMS balance reminder card, which was originally more than 2,000, and some of them were frozen after the check was written.

Buy some water and grab a sandwich and keep on your way.

In the future, he doesn't have to go to school anymore and becomes a free person, which makes Zhang Xiaokai feel very good, and he plans to travel to the seven continents before the age of thirty.

What he didn't know at the moment was that Miss Adlina Lambourg was also in New York at this time, and old Mr. Lambourg had come to travel and took her with him by the way, which was considered a vacation.

The two have not been in touch for more than three years, and they used to communicate occasionally, but they suddenly broke off contact one day.

Occasionally, you can see each other's messages, like them, and that's it......
