Domestic investment guide: don't do what you don't understand; don't do what you can understand but can't see accurately; those who think they understand will be deceived; those who don't use their brains to invest with others will die more unjustly; others don't turn around, don't think that they can play around; those who believe that they can turn stones into gold will definitely be fooled; there must be problems with those who are too high-profile and bragging; cheap goods are not good, and good goods are not cheap.

1. The cold snap of China's concept stocks

Chinese concept stocks have suffered a full-blown credibility crisis in the United States, and the spearhead is pointed at Chinese companies listed in the United States in the past two years. China's concept stocks were frantically sold by investors, and the stock price plummeted, almost completely wiped out. Short Muddy Wate

s) published an article on its website signed John Keynes

Cai

es) revealed the above-mentioned "inside story" of the article revealing the stock market crash of China's concept stocks. According to the article, there are so-called "financial fraud schools" in Chinese mainland that help private companies whitewash their financial data in order to successfully list overseas.

Some PEs and VCs have been clamoring for a handful of professional financial fraudsters on Wall Street who have undermined the business credibility of most Chinese companies in the U.S. stock market and created a crisis.

For a while, the wind was loud, and the grass and trees were all soldiers.

A former colleague who stayed at Morgan Stanley's headquarters on Wall Street in the United States had a sympathy with Qin Fangyuan, and a former colleague David left a message on MSN saying that he had been fired, asking if China had a chance.

The media revealed that Wall Street will lay off more than 1,300 employees at companies such as Bank of America and Goldman Sachs. Previously, both Barclays and Credit Suisse had laid off employees in their investment banking divisions. According to data released by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, jobs in the U.S. financial sector fell to 7.61 million in May this year, about 8.4 percent less than the 2006 high.

Some domestic investment banks or fund analysts are analyzing what is happening on Wall Street and whether Chinese companies are no longer welcome. Qin Fangyuan began to participate in the European and American Alumni Association, and this loose organization full of copper smell made Qin Fangyuan feel like finding an organization.

In addition to the staggered planning, everyone has discussed the impact of this wave of Chinese concept stocks from the sell-off. Qin Fangyuan said that in this round of fraud in China's concept stocks, most of the companies that were found to have problems were due to tax problems. For example, if a company goes to the local tax bureau to check, it only reported a tax of 5 million yuan on profits, but the listed company's statement says that there is a profit of 30 million US dollars, and one of these two heads must be fake. If it is fake in China, it is tax evasion and breaking the law, and if it is fake abroad, it is false to deceive investors by falsely reporting profits, and if it cannot be explained clearly, it can only be delisted.

Principal Amp Pulloan, a Chinese-American investor, said that some Chinese entrepreneurs think that the United States has a big nose and is easy to deceive, but that was a few years ago, and now it is estimated that it is difficult. Now the fund that invests in Chinese companies, if there is no Chinese as a fund manager, at least there are Chinese as analysts. These people are generally highly educated, experienced, and quick to learn, if you lie to them once, they will figure it out immediately, and the second time it is estimated that it will be difficult to deceive. If you still rely on flickering to get by, it's difficult.

Who is speculating in China concept stocks in the United States?

President An analyzed that there are several groups of people: First, Chinese investors. According to my observations, these people are still in the minority, but their number is increasing; second, there are investors from the United States who specialize in investing in China, and the number of these people is large, and the scale of their funds is not small, and they have formed several circles and know each other; third, they are still the main force of large funds, because they have a large amount of funds, and there are big investment banks colluding with them behind them.

2. The inside story is heavy

Bear in mind that the office area of the media company is empty. Since the last time Zhang Jiahong fired most of the backbone and middle-level managers in a rage, he has not added any new blood, and encountered the debt crisis in Europe and the United States.

After the recall of the board of directors, Zhang Jiahong also reflected and believed that the main reason was that the company had a mole, otherwise the board of directors would not have been able to grasp such detailed materials. Where did the mole come from? It must be those who have been recruited from society or through headhunters, and their cronies who have followed them for many years will not betray the company at all. She has established the belief that the company's information should be classified into categories, and a firewall should be established between departments, and those who should not be known should not be allowed to know, and an information hierarchy system should be established to divide it into top secret, confidential, restricted information, and public information, and then the information sharing objects should be managed at different levels.

For the introduction of foreign personnel, it is better to lack than indiscriminate, and we must make it clear that character is higher than ability, must be loyal, and can share weal and woe with the company; if there is no criminal record, the human resources department must conduct a comprehensive resume investigation; and all positions are decided by her whether to hire or not.

In Shenzhen, Focus Media employees gathered to ask for salaries, and the company had not paid their salaries for three months. After finding out that there was still $5 million in cash on the books, the VCs made a decision that the payment must be signed and sealed by the investor and the company in order to be valid. In order to play with the VCs, Zhang Jiahong decided to stop paying employees' salaries, saying to the employees that it was the investor's decision, and turned the conflict to the investor.

A financial girl in Shenzhen called Qin Fangyuan and said that in order to ask for salary, the employees blocked the focus media office area one day, and even blocked Shennan Avenue for half an hour, causing the traffic on Shennan Avenue to be interrupted for a while.

Bearing in mind that the local sales of the media are basically paralyzed, the company's value now is some LCD screens. Zhang Jiahong was worried that the development and operation personnel who entered on a large scale in the first year would not be reliable, so he asked his original cronies to go to various places to take over. However, the takeover was not all smooth sailing, after the change of blood in the southwest region, due to many months of arrears of wages, the former general manager of operations in the southwest region led a group of people to remove the LCD screen and CF card (compact flash memory card), and refused to hand it over.

Zhang Jiahong asked his subordinates to report the case, and listed the former general manager of the southwest region as a wanted criminal in the country in the name of misappropriating the company's huge assets. As soon as the wanted information went online, the local police station arrested the person and detained him for 3 days.

The general manager of the southwest region knew Qin Fangyuan, and he cried to Qin Fangyuan on the phone, and Qin Fangyuan felt a chill in his heart.

Tom was put in prison by Zhang Jiahong. When he heard the news, Qin Fangyuan was eating Yunnan special hot pot with friends who came from **, at the vanilla Ashima restaurant on Puhuangyu Road.

The call came from Shi Wenqing, and the news almost made Qin Fangyuan spit out the quail eggs he had eaten: "How did you know?

Shi Wenqing naturally didn't like Qin Fangyuan's tone of questioning him at every turn, so he didn't bother to talk to him: "He Jing told me." She hangs around Zhang Jiahong every day, and there is a fake? Tom was arrested when he was out at the capital airport. ”

"Why? Didn't Tom resign a long time ago?" Qin Fangyuan was still shocked.

"Are you really stupid or are you fake stupid? If Tom hadn't committed a crime, such a smart person, he would have resigned easily? Or would he have told Zhang Jiahong so obediently that he would have broken up? Where are you? Pu Huangyu? I'm going to look for you now. Shi Wenqing was impatient to talk so much on the phone.

Qin Fangyuan told his ** friend that one of his classmates was coming over. Then he remembered that this ** friend is also an investment banker, and he is famous in Carlyle. When they met when they were studying in the United States, Qin Fangyuan didn't treat him as an outsider, and briefly talked about the situation.

"This case is a scandal that has spread all over the world!" this buddy blurted out, and then realized something, so he explained to Qin Fangyuan, "This is still your former employer, and the merits are clear! You are a great contributor to financing, but after the money is brought in, you will not be professional." ”

Qin Fangyuan knew that being unprofessional was nothing more than synonymous with immorality. He smiled faintly: "The matter has passed, so don't bother with it." ”

After Shi Wenqing came up, he took a few sips of tea before talking about it.

Zhang Jiahong obtained evidence of Tom's embezzlement of the company's finances. Tom did tricks on the advertising project in Shijiazhuang and swallowed black money, and the so-called 3 million yuan returned was basically swallowed by himself, because the customer did not recover the money at all. The client sent the advertising money to an advertising agency, which failed to pay off the advertising money of Mingming Media and withheld 3 million yuan. The legal representative of this advertising company is Tom's wife, and the deputy director of advertising of that client reported to Zhang Jiahong because of the uneven share.

What kind of person Zhang Jiahong is, he has never been soft on the behavior of black company money. Like the company's decoration, Zhu Hong, the former human resources director in charge of this project, hacked her money, and after knowing the news, Zhang Jiahong took a knife and fired the matter, and it was dealt with in about ten minutes, although this person usually looks intimate with her in the company, and he is still a big housekeeper.

Qin Fangyuan immediately remembered that Tom came to him when he resigned, and talked about the aftermath of this project, which was extremely unnatural, and finally handed it over to Xiao Nan, who had an affair with him, naturally out of safety considerations; These scenes flashed through my mind one by one like movie shots.

They were silent for a long time.

** buddy said: "That project is the two of you integrated, how can you deal with the aftermath now? This case is a complete failure case, it is worth learning from, a living teaching material." "He's a little gloating.

Qin Fangyuan said: "If you are not in your position, you will not seek your own government." I'm a free man now, it's going to rain and I'm going to get married, so let it go!"

Shi Wenqing was disdainful, he grinned and said: "What's the matter, the media have summarized it for us: IDG Capital invested in elite education, Huang, Detong Capital invested in Oriental Standard and collapsed, Softbank Saifu Investment Huayu International also failed, Qiming and SIG (Haina International Group) invested in Giant School, Carlyle invested in Beike Haoyue, and Kai Peng Huaying invested in Huizhong's game academy, all of which were lost...... Eight out of ten failures in investment are the norm, and that's what is called venture capital. ”

3. If you can't go public, then you look forward to being merged

Zhang Jiahong was sued by VCs as a classmate, demanding the enforcement of the VAM clause. Zhang Jiahong's lawyer said that China did not support VAM clauses, there was no legitimate reason to file a lawsuit, and that the company was registered in the Cayman Islands, and there were jurisdictional issues in Chinese courts, so as to delay the litigation process.

Zhang Jiahong has been looking for one person, and that is former CFO Li Dong. She has always believed that Li Dong played a very bad role in the contradictions between VC and entrepreneurs, and planned to make Li Dong ruined and unemployed.

At the beginning of the acquisition of Focus Media's high premium, Li Dong was also one of the parties. Zhang Jiahong thought to herself: Anyway, I have torn my face with the investors, and they can't grasp the conclusive evidence, what can I do? The only thing she regrets is why she didn't pull Qin Fangyuan when she closed the deal with Focus Media, but called Li Dong, the CFO is the person recommended by the VCs! She still doesn't understand what the decisive factor in making this decision was, and she scolded herself for being a ghost.

Li Dong disappeared from Beijing, and Zhang Jiahong used all resources to find him. He changed his mobile phone number, moved out of his original house, and the house was rented out to a real estate agent, and he basically cut off contact with people he knew well with Zhang Jiahong and all colleagues in Mingming Media, so as not to cause trouble. Since that small gathering in Nanluoguxiang, Qin Fangyuan couldn't find Li Dong anymore, he was busy with the affairs of Qianfeng and the land of Hubei, and he didn't have much time to think about his colleagues. It is very funny that the place where Li Dong went to work after leaving the media is the Beijing Hotel, which is across the street from the Oriental Plaza, perhaps in line with the old adage that "the most dangerous place is the safest". He made a private equity fund, which Qin Fangyuan heard by chance many days later when he was back to Beijing on a business trip. In fact, the circle of capital is not big.

The VCs have not given up, and if the civil prosecution fails, they plan to file a criminal lawsuit. The most troublesome in the fund is Hong Dakai, although it is a co-investment, after all, it is the first case he invested in after being promoted to a partner of the fund. This Northeast man has a violent and vicious personality, and shouts at the VC meeting that they must pay the price. The VCs agreed that Hong Dakai would take the lead in handling the matter.

They hired a law firm, and the investors jointly paid 1 million yuan, and found evidence of embezzlement of funds and embezzlement in Zhang Jiahong's procurement of LCD screens and Hetian jade. As for the acquisition of Focus Media, they went to the former boss of Focus Media through various methods, that is, Mr. Yang, who later became the director of Mingming Media, and he refused, saying that there was no money laundering for profit. The only way is to expect infighting among former executives of Focus Media, but such expectations have also become a flash in the pan. It is said that Mr. Yang and Vice President Xiong and a group of them have started a new journey and entered the field of group buying. Or the news leaked when Vice President Xiong came to Beijing to find Lao Yan to see if he could raise funds: we are doing a group buying website, we don't want to go public, and we are looking forward to the acquisition of Wowotuan, Meituan or Nuomi.com.

They have tasted the sweetness from the acquisition of Mingming Media, and waiting for the merger and acquisition is also a way out for the capital market, alas, this is the reality in China. When Lao Yan relayed it to them, he was full of emotion.

The lawyers got some of the evidence, and they thought that even if they had only this evidence, they should be able to take Zhang Jiahong down. Hong Dakai insisted on reporting the case to the public security department. Although the public security department filed a case, it was still closed. This hit the investors hard, and they did not dare to act rashly, and completely gave up the attempt to overthrow Zhang Jiahong.

As the saying goes, there are no eternal friends, and there are no permanent enemies, only eternal interests. VCs are starting to look for the next investor, and their wishful thinking is to withdraw if they can, even if it is only 5% off the stock price, they must exit, which is the way to stop loss.

Zhang Jiahong said that if the investor gives her a certain reward, she is willing to mediate and sell it to the state-owned enterprise at the price when the investor enters. The investors, of course, were overjoyed, and they came together again. Since the last time they tried to bring down Zhang Jiahong through the public power department, they completely believed that selling to state-owned enterprises was the best way out, and Zhang Jiahong had the ability.

4. Tribulation is a man's wealth

After Qin Fangyuan rested for nearly half a year, he thought twice about returning to Wall Street, and even considered starting from the most basic position. Turning my head and looking at the time I returned to China, it was like having a dream, but this dream was too long. This dream is not a nightmare, nor is it a sweet dream, the person wakes up from the dream, the body is tired, but the mind is clear. He was going to do his best to erase this dream from the memories of his life.

He wrote an e-mail to You Sulin, who was far away in New York. In the email, he briefly stated the gains and losses, ups and downs of returning to China for two years, and he said in an almost conclusive tone: I now have a serious psychological disorder, I always feel that any words of others are false, and I have to ponder every sentence for a long time, and I am always worried that there is a conspiracy in the words and I will fall into the trap at any time. I knew it was a disease, and I was confused. I admit that I was wrong, and I was one of the participants in providing false data to investors, and some people may say that it is the norm, or even the unspoken rule, but I am uneasy.

This is the first time Qin Fangyuan has confided this kind of voice to an elderly person, although his external performance on weekdays is to be pampered and not surprised, and he and Shi Wenqing are like dogs and horses, quiet as a cunning rabbit, but this psychological barrier has gradually become a shadow under his sunny appearance.

This is also his second contact with You Surin after returning to China. The first time was when I had just returned to China, and after settling down, I called him, and I was full of ambition and high spirits. This time, he didn't have the courage to call him.

You Sulin replied to the email, and in response to the current capital market, he talked about a trend, that is, the withdrawal from emerging markets has become the mainstream choice of current investors. Over the past few months, global investors have begun to withdraw from emerging markets and return to the United States, traditionally considered the safest. He welcomed Qin Fangyuan back to Wall Street, and if he couldn't go back to the big investment bank, he could go to the FT investment company where he worked, and he should recommend it as much as possible.

At the end of the email, the story of Zigong's political inquiry was quoted. Zi said: "Enough food, foot soldiers, and the trust of the people." Zigong said: "I have to go, which of the three is first?" said: "Go to the army." Zigong said: "I must go as a last resort." Which of the two comes first?" he said, "Go eat." Since ancient times, there have been deaths, and the people have no faith and cannot stand. ”

Qin Fangyuan woke up, yes, values are more important than life. He was very touched that this senior brother who had no desires and no desires with him could always give him a kind of strength, even if this power was only spiritual level, it was enough.

There is a way to rely on misfortune and blessing, and when Qin Fangyuan was returning to Wall Street in the United States, he received a strange phone call, which ruined his plan to return to Wall Street. The call came from a foreign-funded headhunting company, and the other party knew Qin Fangyuan's situation very well, and Qin Fangyuan also knew that this headhunting company was quite famous in the United States. The headhunter recommended a well-known investment bank, and they recruited a senior executive at the Asian headquarters of **, and the requirement for this person was to be familiar with the Chinese capital market.

He was contacted directly by the headhunter company, a middle-aged woman in her 40s who was the general manager of China, and asked him to meet at Oriental Plaza. When Qin Fangyuan heard the words "Oriental Plaza", he instinctively resisted, and he refused. This boss was patient and changed the meeting place very happily. The meeting time was relatively short, and before Qin Fangyuan could speak, the boss bluntly told him that it was the customer who directly named him, as for why, maybe it was because you had financing experience in China, or your experience on Wall Street. "This is probably the most efficient case I hunt for a client. You have to cherish it, how many people have to stare at this post, you are so young, you are still airborne. ”

After Qin Fangyuan came back, he felt that the position and treatment that this person said were seriously unreliable, and there was a huge gap between them and the facts, and he didn't believe that pie would fall from the sky. How could it be him? It must be tricking him, right? But why bother, is it necessary? He almost sentenced this opportunity to death in his heart.

The next day, the female CEO of the headhunting company called and said that the head of the Asia-Pacific region of the investment bank had come to Beijing and wanted to meet him, which was actually an interview.

The interview took place in the café lounge area in the lobby on the first floor of the China World Hotel, where people were chatting in twos and threes, obviously in a relaxed environment, as if deliberately arranged, and did not choose a quiet, solemn office or presidential suite.

The female boss of the headhunting company came out to greet Qin Fangyuan and led him to a quieter place on the right rear of the café. The interviewer was in his fifties, tall, thin, with a tall nose and Jewish features. He handed Qin Fangyuan a business card that said that he was the investment bank's president of the Asia-Pacific region, and his name was David. From Qin Fangyuan to the door, David kept a smile on his face.

The two exchanged pleasantries in English and got to the point. Qin Fangyuan came up with a big question mark: "I'm sorry, I want to know, why did you choose me?"

David took a sip of soda and tapped the table lightly with his ringed right hand like a keyboard, his expression relaxed. Qin Fangyuan's untimely and abrupt question had long been expected, he smiled slightly, and said, "It was recommended by Sentai Fund." ”

Qin Fangyuan almost jumped up: "How is it possible?!"

What immediately came to his mind was not Tony Xu, but Yu Yan, who had a pair of clear eyes on that delicate face, and when he looked at him, he went from worship to ambiguity to love, and finally became extremely disappointed and resentful. The scene of a stack of materials falling into his face made him ashamed and difficult to erase for the rest of his life.

He immediately thought that this was a conspiracy that had been arranged, and the purpose was to humiliate him by another false hand.

Thinking of this, his attitude became unfriendly: "Sentai Fund? I know, it is an investor in the company I used to serve. Yes, I'm a failure, and I admit it was a painful, dishonorable experience. OK, do you have anything else to say?"

Many days later, Qin Fangyuan remembered what he said to David, and he didn't know what he said, only that he was incoherent.

David naturally didn't understand what Qin Fangyuan was trying to express, but comforted him: "Whether it is failure or success, every experience in life is unique. Isn't there an old saying in China? I'm well aware of the media financing, the acquisitions, and the choice to leave, Jessie told me, and that's why I came to you. We are about to open up investment business in China, and we think you are more suitable. ”

It's really Yu Yan. His face turned red suddenly, not because of his tangled relationship with her, but because of his shortcomings when she questioned him. She had told him everything, so why did David still look for him and entrust him with such a task?

In that interview, Qin Fangyuan was still sober when talking about business.

David asked Qin Fangyuan what he thought of the VAM clause, and Qin Fangyuan answered this question profoundly: "Many investors regard VAM agreements and repurchase clauses as bulletproof clothing for risks, and simplify due diligence and speed up decision-making for this purpose. However, countless cases have proved that most of the VAM and repurchase cannot be executed in the end, and the execution is mostly a lose-lose situation. In the face of the optimistic figures of entrepreneurs, it is necessary to do solid due diligence, prudent forecasting, communication and running-in, and find a balance, and if you still can't reach a consensus in the end, you would rather give up than use VAM and repurchase to escape and self-anesthetize. ”

In Qin Fangyuan's gushing elaboration, David nodded from time to time, and cast an approving look.

Maybe it was encouraged by David's expression, or maybe he talked about the business too much, and he talked about the trap of domestic investment to avoid, which is not his own summary, but every word is fine: (1) don't do what you don't understand, (2) don't do what you can understand but can't see accurately, (3) you think you can see it clearly, you will be deceived, (4) you don't use your brains to invest with others, and you will die more unjustly; (5) others can't play, don't think you can play around; (6) those who believe that they can turn stones into gold must have fooled themselves; (7) those who are too high-profile and braggadocio must be problematic; (8) cheap is not good, and good goods are not cheap。

David laughed, leaned over and patted Qin Fangyuan on the shoulder and said, "There is an old Chinese saying: Master Yi has long skills to control Yi!"

A blessing in disguise, Qin Fangyuan was appointed executive director of the investment bank's Asia Pacific region, in charge of the China market. The acquisition of this position, if it is on Wall Street, generally has to survive at least until the year of confusion, Qin Fangyuan actually advanced it by 10 years.

The female boss of the headhunting company was familiar with Qin Fangyuan, and told him on the phone that what people were very concerned about was the ups and downs he experienced in China, and I believed that he already had strong immunity. In this way, the company's business in China will take fewer detours in the future, and risk control will be more in place. Could it be that he got this position because of the two years of capital in China? He still couldn't believe it.

On the day he took office, he missed Yu Yan. When will this girl who was hurt by herself see each other again?

Qiao Mei, a student of biostatistics, is also in the United States and successfully obtained a doctorate. Her supervisor recommended her to go to a Fortune 500 company to do basic research work, which is basically a typical choice for outstanding Chinese graduates.

"I'm finally working, and I'm really looking to graduate early when I'm in school – do you think I'll miss or go back to school soon?"

Qin Fangyuan said: "What kind of books are you still studying? If you read again, you will be stupid to read, so work in a down-to-earth manner! I will be busy earning money first, and when I have a lot of money, I will support you, and you will give birth to a whole kindergarten child for me at home, that is a meritorious achievement!"

"You want to be beautiful, I have to be financially independent, maybe you will leave me ruthless again, when the time comes, I will be old and decrepit, dragging my family with me, who am I going to cry?" Before leaving the phone, Qiao Mei instructed him, "When you stand firm in the new company, don't forget to apply to work in the headquarters." ”

Xiao Nan came out of Mingming Media, and headhunters poached her everywhere, although the former owner's brand was broken, her personal performance was still loud. Today's headhunters are about to become professional commercial spies, and they can easily obtain the company's internal information, including address books and business performance, and do not know what they use and what cost. Xiao Nan finally chose a train advertising company and rejected a well-known advertising agency that did CCTV's prime-time bidding business. Of course, Xiao Nan won the title of vice president of business in the train advertising company, and compared to the position of account director of the CCTV advertising agency, Xiao Nan chose to be the head of the chicken rather than the tail of the phoenix.

On a business trip**, she went to Qin Fangyuan's company. Before she went, she didn't call Qin Fangyuan, she wanted to surprise him, but unfortunately, Qin Fangyuan went to Shenzhen that day to discuss an investment project for household medical devices. Although Qin Fangyuan's assistant repeatedly explained that he was on a business trip, Xiao Nan still left a pot of daffodils for Qin Fangyuan in the name of an old friend. She said to the assistant that Qin Fangyuan likes narcissus, don't forget to water it, he can't see that the flowers are withering in his hands.

After coming back, Qin Fangyuan heard the words relayed by the assistant, he stood in front of the window of the independent office, looked down at the crowded crowd on the street, remembered the years that had just ended but seemed so far away, and shed a few tears.

Nor do I believe in tears. The city is no different from Wall Street, there is no difference in gender, age, nationality, race, there is only one standard, and that is money, money, money. Whether you have the ability to bring benefits to the company, and whether you can help the company beat its opponents in the competition, determines your status and future.

Shi Wenqing also came out of Huaxia Zhongding, and Hong Dakai never went to look for him again. An Puruo once had an incisive evaluation of people like Shi Wenqing: "The ability to pick up girls is actually a person's sales ability, and those who are good at picking up girls are often sales masters." He can be a very useful member of the startup team. Entrepreneurial leaders need Visio even more

(Vision), passio

(passion), guts (courage), leade

ship (leadership), these qualities are also liked by girls, but entrepreneurs are not necessarily masters of pickling girls. ”

Shi Wenqing pulled a few friends to make a small-scale venture capital fund and become his own GP, probably gathering more than a dozen "rich second generations" in the domestic private pharmaceutical industry, and they became the LP of this 200 million yuan plate.

Qian Feng and his wife Roman officially divorced, and Roman stayed in Canada and found a Dutchman to remarry. Qian Feng was promoted to the next level in his life and became a father. On that trip to Yunnan, the stubborn Yunnan girl never agreed to kill the child in her belly, and she had to give birth no matter what, even if she raised it alone.

When Qian Feng went, it was just in time for a local festival, and the town and countryside were full of lights and joy. The other party was very surprised to see Qian Feng rushing over, as if he was treating a new son-in-law, seven aunts and eight aunts, very enthusiastic and thoughtful, they seemed to forget that Qian Feng was here to discuss such an unbearable thing as "abortion". The rural people are simple, whether it is the stepfather of the Yunnan girl or her mother, everyone will say that the son-in-law has come from Beijing. Oh, it turned out to be Beijing's son-in-law. The people of the village smiled with kindness and even envy. These scenes, like a warm breeze, hit Qian Feng's heart in the reinforced concrete city, and became numb in the cold capital market.

Qian Feng's emails to Qin Fangyuan were stuffed with photos of the children, whom he called "my son," even though they were not married. In Qian Feng's words, he may never marry a Yunnan girl in his life, but his heart is still full of the strong joy of being a first-time father. The baby boy in the photo is very cute, almost the same as the baby boy in Jackie Chan's "Baby Plan", with a fleshy little face, tiger head, and a cute smile. Qian Feng said in the email that he would be responsible for their mother and son for the rest of his life, and although it was likely that he would not be able to give them a legal title, he would spend his whole life of money and energy to take care of them.

5. Ancient garden trees

In the blink of an eye, there is no sign of spring in Beijing, and the huge and crowded traffic spits out filthy exhaust fumes without hesitation, making the air situation even worse.

Qin Fangyuan went on a business trip to Beijing, and he took over a large project of a state-owned enterprise. In his spare time that day, he drove a Phaeton from east to west to Xidan Xiang'e Love Restaurant, and he made an appointment with Xiao Nan, Shi Wenqing, Qian Feng and some other related or unrelated friends to have a small-scale party. These classmates or former colleagues were overjoyed when they received Qin Fangyuan's invitation: "This guy is back in Beijing again, let's go back to my hometown, I have to kill him." ”

The car crossed Chang'an Avenue, and in the short time he was waiting for the traffic light in Wangfujing, Qin Fangyuan saw the familiar and unfamiliar Oriental Plaza building on the right, standing majestically in the fog. There were no stars in the sky, and there was a haze. He suddenly remembered his childhood hometown in the south, the starry night, the cuckoos shouting "sowing grain", the frogs chirping one after another in the fields, and the flocks of fireflies flying in the mighty flocks, and the beautiful childhood countryside was like a movie, splendid in silence.

Thinking of this, the long-lost warmth welled up in my heart.
