Chapter 21: Friend Mode
"We'll go now. It's a lot of excitement around here, so you should be able to pick it up. Mo Ersheng smiled and said, "It should be in time for dinner in the evening." ”
"Okay. There's still quite a bit of a while. Xu Yingying said with a smile.
Yue Qingyan had no choice but to leave the venue with Mo Ersheng and go to the shopping mall across the street. Mo Ersheng is quite familiar with men's clothing brands, and Yue Qingyan is happy to follow her to choose.
"What kind of focus should you choose?" asked Morsheng.
"Fitted, basic, classic. It's best to be dark, and it looks like it's suitable for multiple occasions. Anyway, I guess I will buy this set. Yue Qingyan's mind was very clear.
Although Mo Ersheng responded, he was still very active in picking a few more sets for Yue Qingyan.
"By the way, didn't you say you were going to move?
"Alright. It's right over there in Jing'an, a small apartment. The rent is not cheap. But it's easy to worry. ”
"Do you want help with moving? I called Li Feng and them, as well as other people in the community, to help you move at one time. ”
"I'm just three cardboard boxes, just take a taxi. ”
"Alas?" Mo Ersheng didn't expect that Yue Qingyan's luggage was only so much.
"Half a box of clothes, half a box of quilts and bedding. A box of books, computers, and electrical appliances was packed. There is also a box of miscellaneous items. Two-thirds of all these things have been bought in the past month. I wouldn't have bought it if I had known. Yue Qingyan said casually. He was ready to move, and Du Xiao helped find the house. It's not far from his house, and it's just two roads.
If it weren't for the fact that people began to decorate in the place where he lives now at 6 o'clock in the morning every day, Yue Qingyan would not have wanted to move. The penalty for losing one month's rent will have to be tossed around. He doesn't run that far to go to school and participate in activities every day, and he persists. However, now there is a miasma of smoke in the community. From 6 a.m. to 9 p.m., it's noisy. Then I can't bear it.
"There are so few things, don't you even have clothes for this season?" Mo Ersheng estimated that if he moved, even if he moved out of the dormitory, his luggage would be estimated to be able to fit more than a dozen boxes, and the clothes alone would account for more than half.
"Buy some if you need it, it's convenient anyway. It doesn't take much this season. ”
"It's all new, do you throw it all away every season?" asked Morsheng in surprise.
"It's not. When I stayed there, I only had a computer with me. Yue Qingyan said, "There is nothing else." ”
"What's going on?" Morsheng asked cautiously, "but ...... It's okay if you don't want to say it. I'm just, just a little bit sorry for you. ”
"No, I don't. Nothing happened. It was just a bit of an accident. Forget it, let's get back to it. Yue Qingyan's indifferent expression made Mo Ersheng feel more and more that there was something inside.
However, from this moment on, Yue Qingyan felt that Mo Ersheng seemed to be more gentle. In a men's clothing store, Mo Ersheng picked out a dark gray Chen Shan and tie for him, and the charcoal black suit and trousers with faint vertical lines were really suitable to wear, which made Yue Qingyan very handsome, but he still maintained a low-key and gentle appearance. When she was helping Yue Qingyan sort out her clothes, she stood less than a foot in front of Yue Qingyan, carefully smoothing out every piece of clothing for him. Through the shirt, Yue Qingyan could clearly feel the temperature of her palm, and Mo Ersheng's expression was also nervous and shy.
The ambiguous atmosphere is clear at a glance. Although Yue Qingyan and Mo Ersheng were exchanging opinions on clothes normally, the clerk still stood far away with interest. However, in the end, the clerk did not work in vain. In the BOSS store, Yue Qingyan swiped more than 10,000 cards, bought a full set of shirts, ties, suits and trousers, and even added leather shoes. If there are any new tricks in BOSS's menswear design, it is completely inferior to the men's wear of brands such as GUCCI, Burberry and Prada, but in terms of the quality and workmanship of the basic models, it is indeed quite good.
Mo Ersheng was obviously moved by Yue Qingyan. She also made it clear, but Yue Qingyan was still a little worried.
After making the phone call to confirm the place to eat that night, when the two walked to the restaurant together, Yue Qingyan suddenly asked, "What did I do wrong...... Or rather, do it right? Let me have this honor......"
Morsheng's face turned even redder all of a sudden. She smbabbed, unable to utter a complete sentence.
"We have only a short time to realize that we are now. I don't think I'm a nuisance, but I also don't want to be because of many other factors if I win someone's affection. ”
Mo Ersheng tilted his head and looked at Yue Qingyan: "What do you mean? What other factors?"
"I blasted your nasty suitor away in a very technical way this morning. If it weren't for my good intentions, you know, I said he was a, and he might have doubted himself for a while. Then, I took you to pick up your idol Miwu, the spiritual mentor of the new woman in the modern city. The mornings and afternoons are quite high, and the energy is very interesting. If these things affect and interfere with your judgment, I hope you can think it through. Maybe a few days, maybe longer, but, if I really have a reason to like you, it should be me. Until then, we were better off as friends. ”
Mo Ersheng was a little confused at first, especially the last sentence: getting along with her in the way of friends, it seems that he rejected her. However, when you think about it, this is not the meaning of his words at all.
Yue Qingyan was indeed not ready to start a relationship. He's only been back in this world for a while, and he doesn't know enough about everything, let alone a girl to get to know him better.
However, in this way, it probably won't irritate Morsheng. After that, as long as you are mediocre, or you write and disappear for a while, maybe you will be fine. Mo Ersheng is a literary girl, and literary girls need more company than ordinary girls. Yue Qingyan was ready to be cold for a while. Of course, if you really can't escape, if Morsheng's mind continues to stretch, then it will be good to be together at that time. Yue Qingyan felt that his resistance to beautiful girls was still very limited.
And at the dinner table, everyone seemed to notice the subtle change in the relationship between the two. Yue Qingyan didn't seem to have changed at all, but Mo Ersheng almost didn't move his eyes and turned to Yue Qingyan. This level of gossip still allows several seniors to refrain from waiting and watching the changes.
But at the dinner table, the most abnormal thing is not the two of them, but the Lianxing Festival. Seeing that everyone was almost finished, Lian Xingjie put down his chopsticks. "I have something to tell you. ”
"Mr. Lian, why are you so serious. What is the matter?" Among all the people present, the degree of binding between Du Xiao and Mingqian Company was neither high nor low, so he hurried out to ease the atmosphere.
"It is not easy for the company to develop to this day. These days, good news and bad news come together. The good news is that this essay contest of ours has received a lot of attention because of it. Of course, there is also the credit of Xiao Yue in it. The tournament will become a permanent annual event, and this afternoon, I left the venue with several sponsors to sign a post-tournament sponsorship contract. The current contract is for three years. At the very least, there are three more editions of this call for essays. The title sponsor is Tissot, which can be regarded as tall. Starting next year, the competition will be called the 'Tissot Times Pulse Essay Contest'. The other two, one is Pernod Ricard, and the other is Intercontinental Hotels Group, which also saves money for accommodation and hospitality. Although it was not easy to negotiate, I finally won it. ”
When he said it, he was quite proud. These sponsors are all very powerful and promising, and they have always been more enthusiastic about cultural undertakings, but it is really not easy to pry a piece from them.
"Another good thing is that the essay contest has been included in the cultural development plan of SH City. We were able to get a small amount of money from the Ministry of Culture, but we still have a lot to do in terms of publicity and other cooperation. ”
Lian Xingjie straightened his face and said: "However, the day before yesterday, investors who hold shares in the company informed me that because the traditional publishing industry continues to shrink, coupled with copyright transactions and the like, the future is not clear. At the end of the year, they will activate some of the terms of the original investment agreement, either the company will buy back their shares, or they will have to look for an opportunity to make a quick move. It was about a year and a half earlier than they had expected. I'm more passive. I'm going to have to raise enough money over the next few months to deal with this. ”
Lian Xingjie said: "I am telling you about this situation because in the next few months, I myself will release real and false news, and the investor's funds will also send all kinds of news, maybe from the media level, it will be more chicken feathers." It's just a small company before tomorrow, and no matter how it is, it won't have any impact on the big market, but you will still notice this news. Let me give you a reminder first, I have some confidence in me, the company, and the operation before and after tomorrow. ”
Lian Xingjie only has 37 percent of the company's shares, and he has to buy at least 14 percent. But the investors own 30%, and many of the shares are scattered among other investors and partners. To get together to 51%, and even re-privatize the company before Ming, Lian Xingjie is really Alexander. What he didn't tell everyone was that Feng Youshan and Qiu Dacheng had agreed to buy 10% of Ming Qian's shares each, and from Ming Qian's existing partners, they would not alarm investors for the time being. This greatly improved the situation of Lianxingjie and gave him the opportunity to form a counter-kill against investors. However, he won't talk about this kind of thing at this time.
When the company encounters major news and changes, the time has come to test who is a friend and who is an enemy.
"I want to buy 5% of the shares before Ming," as soon as Lian Xingjie's voice fell, Mi Wu said: "Mr. Lian, can you give me a chance to be a shareholder?"
Lian Xingjie was shocked. "5%? According to the current valuation, it is about 300 million. 15 million?"
"Yes. Miwu said, "I have a lot of faith in Ming Qian. Although your annual profit is really not high, your business is stable, and there is no loss in a year. Whether it's social resources or author relationships, you're really good. You help me with this channel to buy shares, and I'll have cash ready in two weeks. In addition, the 5% of the shares will have the same voting rights as you for at least two years. How?"
"You're so rich......" everyone's reaction was fairly unanimous.
