Chapter 108: Putting Them to Sleep

Tagawa quickly flipped to the economic section and read the report that Apple was in crisis. The content of the news is not long, but it only introduces Apple's performance trend in recent years, reviews its glory in the past, analyzes the reasons for this serious crisis, and the article is generally pessimistic about Apple, and does not mention the return of Jobs, or even makes assumptions.

Flipping to the character page, Jobs's interview is very long, and it occupies a small half of the page. The content is very trivial, from the hardships of Apple's entrepreneurship to the current personal achievements, from the responsibility to the family to the creed of life, from the current situation of the IT industry to the development direction of personal computers, the content is very comprehensive, but it does not talk about the idea of returning to Apple or saving Apple.

Tagawa threw the newspaper aside and sat on the couch with his eyes closed, trying to recall the exact time of Jobs' return to Apple, as if it were a press conference held in early September.

He turned on his computer, logged on to the Internet, and searched for information about Apple and Steve Jobs. Everything is normal, there is not a single bit of news that will stimulate the stock market. Today's New York Times report on Apple may be the news that has the greatest impact on the stock market.

And Jobs hasn't had any new news for a long time, and the overall situation is a little weirdly calm.

Log on to the New York Stock Exchange's website and check the trend of Apple's stock, which is still slowly falling, and today may be affected by the New York Times report, and the decline has accelerated a little.

Suddenly, Tagawa noticed an anomaly, since yesterday, the trading volume of Apple's stock has been rising! After carefully looking at the distribution of trading hours and the detailed stock price trend, Tagawa came to a conclusion: There are market makers who are suppressing Apple's stock price.

"There must be a dealer who got the news that Jobs may return to Apple," Tagawa said secretly in his heart, "There will be specific news in two or three days." ”

He slapped his own big

legs, standing up, pacing back and forth in the room, thinking about how to get a handful out of it.

He picked up the phone and called Lian Jingjing: "Jingjing, I'm Tian Chuan." Help me check how much money I have at my disposal right now, including the ones in the machinery company's account. ”

Lian Jingjing was deeply impressed by this large number, and replied directly: "There are 130 million in the account of the investment company, and 60 million in the machinery company. ”

Tian Chuan said: "Leave 5 million for the machinery company, and the rest will be in the investment company's account, and it will be transferred to my account in the United States before nine o'clock tomorrow morning, and I will use it for a few days." By the way, I'll look for Luan Jianjun again in a while, coordinate some out, and transfer it to me as soon as the money arrives. ”

Lian Jingjing didn't ask much, and said, "Okay, what you just said is before nine o'clock tomorrow morning New York time?"

"Yes. Tomorrow morning at nine o'clock, I must have more than 10 million dollars in my hands. ”

"Understood. ”

Hanging up Lian Jingjing's phone, Tian Chuan immediately called Luan Jianjun again. The phone rang for a while before Luan Jianjun answered, and without waiting for Tian Chuan to speak, he complained: "Tian Chuan, you still don't let people sleep, what time will you call." "Tian Chuan looked at his watch, it was six o'clock in the evening, Beijing time was five o'clock in the morning, and it was not yet dawn. hurriedly apologized: "I forgot about the jet lag, I bothered my brother, and I will invite you to dinner to make amends when I go back." ”

"There's a fart. I've got to sleep. ”

Tian Chuan didn't go around the bush either, and said directly: "Brother Luan, do you have any money on hand? I don't use much, just a few hundred million. ”

"you, it's still hundreds of millions, not 10 million. My money is in the construction company, and there are no dividends yet, where is the money? Saying that, Luan Jianjun suddenly reacted: "To be honest, did you kid find any good way to make money? Don't forget to take my brother with me." ”

Tagawa said: "I had my eye on a stock in New York and wanted to invest in it for a short time. Stocks are too risky, so I didn't say I'm going to play with you. ”

After the turmoil in China's stock market last year, Luan Jianjun was full of confidence in Tian Chuan's stock trading skills, saying: "Speaking of stocks, I trust you 100% brother. Take me one, my principal makes money, let's split it in half, how about losing mine? How much do I have? About 100 million. ”

Tian Chuan felt that he couldn't agree to him like this, and said: "Don't blindly believe in me like this, for the sake of safety, half of this 100 million shares are as you say, and the other half is considered to be borrowed from you, no matter if you lose money or make money, you will be given 15% interest after a month, okay?"

Luan Jianjun said: "Okay, brother listen to you." When will the money be used?"

Tian Chuan said: "The sooner the better, I will see the money by nine o'clock tomorrow morning, remember it is New York time." If the money is ready, just contact Lian Jingjing directly, I told her. ”

Tian Chuan walked around the room a little excitedly, and when he saw Xu Jingyi and Xiaohui looking at him with strange eyes, he couldn't help but smile, he was too excited just now, and he was a little out of shape. Explained to the two: "I was a little excited to meet an opportunity to make money. Hehe, we're probably going to have to stay in New York for two or three days, and you're going out on your own for those two days, okay? I'll help you find a good guide. ”

The two girls were angry at the same time, and Xu Jingyi said: "Hmph, you said that you took us out to play, but you left us again, and I can't believe you." ”

Tian Chuan said: "I need to make money so that I can play with you wholeheartedly." finally found an opportunity, and let it go in vain. I'll help you find a Chinese tour guide from Columbia University in a moment, and I'll take you to see Columbia University tomorrow, which is the best management university in the world, and has produced many presidents or something. Good boy. ”

The two girls rolled their eyes speechlessly, and Xiaohui said, "Okay, forgive you, we are hungry, punish you for taking us to a big dinner now." ”

Tian Chuan responded: "Yes, two mothers." ”

Xu Jingyi corrected: "What a mother, it's a princess." ”

Dinner was served in the hotel's main restaurant, and the dishes were delicious. Yesterday at Steve's house, Xiaohui and Xu Jingyi were already wary of American food, and today they ate serious French Western food, which is completely different from the American fast food culture, with authentic taste and beautiful environment, and several people enjoyed a pleasant dining process.

The room booked this time is still a suite, and each of the three people has a separate room, each with their own bathroom, and shares a living room.

After returning to the room, Tian Chuan contacted the Chinese Student Association of Columbia University online and helped the second daughter find a Chinese student guide. According to online information, the tour guide is from Yu Province, China, whose Chinese name is Li Haocheng, and has been studying finance at Columbia University for two years. There is a picture of him on the website, and he is a big boy who is slightly black and thin.

After the person was found, Tian Chuan went to Xu Jingyi's room and called the two of them to see the person's information. After returning to the room after dinner, Xu Jingyi pulled Xiaohui into her room, and the two muttered something to themselves. When Tagawa went to call them, the door to the room didn't touch, and it opened with a slight push.

The situation after entering the door startled Tian Chuan, Xu Jingyi was sitting on the edge of the bed wearing only underwear, Xiaohui was sitting next to her, and the two were whispering something. Seeing Tian Chuan push the door in, Xu Jingyi screamed "ah", quickly pulled up the quilt to block his body, and asked Tian Chuan loudly: "Why did you come in without knocking on the door?"

Tian Chuan hurriedly exited the door and said outside the door: "The door is not locked, it will open as soon as you touch it." I'm here to ask you to come and see if you're satisfied with tomorrow's tour guide and see if you're satisfied. As he spoke, he ran away and returned to his computer.

After a while, the two girls came out of Xu Jingyi's room and went to the computer to read the tour guide's information. The two had a good impression of this Li Haocheng and agreed to let him be a tour guide. Tagawa called the front desk again and ordered a Lincoln sedan from the hotel, which will be reserved for the second daughter in the next two days.

The three do not have U.S. citizenship, nor green cards, and cannot apply for U.S. credit cards, which are not popular in China. Tagawa gave each of them a savings card, and each of them deposited $10,000 in the card for them to take their pocket money. They were each given cash of different denominations to make small payments or as tips.

Tian Chuan will rush to the stock exchange at half past eight tomorrow, and he will leave the hotel before half past seven, so he made an appointment with Li Haocheng to meet in the hotel lobby at seven o'clock tomorrow morning. So tomorrow they need to get up early and eat early.

Tian Chuan drove the two girls back to the room to sleep, and stayed in front of the computer by himself, thinking about tomorrow's stock operation plan. After a while, Megumi poked her head out of the room and beckoned to Tagawa, who turned back when she heard the sound.

Tagawa knew that she was going to put her to sleep again, so he got up and walked into her room. After coaxing her to lie down, Tagawa took her hand as usual and waited for her to fall asleep. But Xiaohui only closed her eyes for a while, then opened her eyes and looked at Tian Chuan, looking a little stupid.

Tian Chuan asked softly, "What's wrong?"

Xiaohui didn't speak, still looked at him, and after a while, he said, "Brother Tian Chuan, be patient, wait for me to grow up." ”

Tian Chuan was stunned for a moment and said: "Don't worry, baby, you are the best, no one can threaten you, I will watch you grow up slowly." ”

Megumi smiled, slowly closed her eyes, and gradually fell asleep. Tagawa covered her with a quilt, adjusted the temperature of the air conditioner, left a light in the foyer, and exited Xiaohui's room.

Back in the living room, Tagawa didn't delay any longer, turned off the computer, and went back to the room.

As soon as she took a shower in the room, Xu Jingyi pushed the door and walked in. Tagawa asked, "What's the matter, is there something wrong?" wait for me to get dressed. Xu Jingyi didn't seem to be uncomfortable with Tian Chuan, who was only wearing a pair of pants, and said to him: "I can't sleep either, you have to coax me to sleep." ”

Tian Chuan put on a pair of big pants and took Xu Jingyi's hand to send her back to the room. After entering the door, a princess from Tian Chuan picked up Xu Jingyi, who was wearing pajamas, and gently put it in the bed. pulled the quilt to cover her waist, kissed her lightly on the face, held her hand and said, "Good, sleep, I'm here to watch you." ”

Xu Jingyi pulled Tian Chuan's hand to his chest and hugged him with both hands, and said, "You have to watch me sleep obediently, you are not allowed to leave if I don't fall asleep." He closed his eyes as he spoke. After a while, she rolled over, pressed Tagawa's hand under her, and hugged Tagawa's waist as he sat on the edge of the bed with one of her own.

After a while, seeing that Tian Chuan didn't move, she moved into the bed again and said, "Come and sleep with me, otherwise I won't be able to sleep." ”

Tian Chuan was helpless and said to her: "Don't be like this, I have nothing to promise you." ”

Xu Jingyi pulled Tian Chuan hard again and said, "Come and hold me, I can't sleep alone." If you don't hold me anymore, Xiaohui will grow up. ”

Tagawa didn't think much about it, lay on his side beside her, reached out to take her in his arms, and kissed her on the forehead. Xu Jingyi buried her head in Tian Chuan's arms and sobbed softly.

After a long time, Xu Jingyi said softly:

"On your breast, I have become

Singing irises

The breeze of your breath blows me

In a tinkling moonlight

"With your broad palms

temporarily

Cover me

"Now, can I dream?

Snow, big forest

Ancient wind chimes and the Leaning Tower

Can I ask for a real Christmas tree?

It's full of hanging

Ice skates, flutes and fairy tales

Fireworks and fountains show off joy

Can I laugh and run down the street?"

Tian Chuan knows that these are the first two stanzas of Shu Ting's long poem "The Singing Iris", which is one of the most wonderful parts of the poem. The verses in the poem that originally expressed the happy mood of the girl who fell in love for the first time were read in Xu Jingyi's mouth at this time, but they were full of endless pathos, which made Tian Chuan feel heartbroken. The boundless guilt surrounded him, leaving Tagawa speechless for a long time.

The two hugged each other like this, lying quietly in the bed, listening to each other's heartbeats, and slowly falling asleep.
