On this day, Xiao Jie and Lu Tianyu chatted for a long time, and when they talked about writing code, they didn't meet their eyes for a few days and nights; talked about begging grandpa and grandma everywhere in order to get a project; talked about how to save money to pay wages in order to appease the hearts of employees.

All this made Lu Tianyu realize that the road to entrepreneurship is not smooth, but full of thorns.

"Senior brother, I still have some money here, otherwise, you can take it to the emergency first." Lu Tianyu decided to help Xiao Jie. From Fang Cai's chat, he could see that his senior brother was a good person, and he was also a person who had ideas and understood technology, but unfortunately the market competition was too fierce, which made him repeatedly hit and failed repeatedly.

"No need, Lu Tianyu, thank you for your kindness. However, I still have a few projects in hand, and if I can successfully close the project and get the money, I should be able to get through this difficulty. ”

"Okay, senior brother, come on, you will definitely be able to do it, I will toast you." As he spoke, Lu Tianyu picked up his wine glass.

"Well, I'll try." Xiao Jie also picked up his wine glass.

Just when the wine glasses of the two had not touched each other, Xiao Jie's mobile phone suddenly rang.

Glancing at the phone number, Xiao Jie's face suddenly sank, and he hurriedly made a "wait a minute" gesture to Lu Tianyu, then picked up the phone and walked out.

After a few minutes, Xiao Jie came back, his face gloomy, "Lu Tianyu, there is a little situation in the company, I have to rush back immediately, and we will talk again when we are free." ”

"Okay, senior brother. You go get busy first. ”

Looking at Xiao Jie's back as he left in a hurry, Lu Tianyu's heart couldn't help but cast a shadow.

It turns out that Lu Tianyu's sixth sense is very accurate. On the second night, he received a call from Xiao Jie again: "Senior brother, I'm Xiao ...... Xiao Jie, you ...... Do you have time now? Come out and drink with me...... Drink! ”

"Senior brother, what's wrong? What's going on? Listening to the muffled voice on the other side of the phone, Lu Tianyu was shocked in his heart.

"My Asuka company is closing, it's going to ...... It's closing! ”

"Senior brother. Where are you? I'll come right over. Lu Tianyu's heart sank, and what he was most worried about still happened.

"Big ...... near the west gate of the school Food stalls. ”

When Lu Tianyu found Xiao Jie at a food stall, he had obviously drunk too much. There were four or five empty wine bottles stacked on the table. And he was lying on the table, his face flushed, and the smell of wine on his body could be smelled from afar.

"Senior brother, what's wrong with you? Why do you drink so much alcohol? ”

"Lu Tianyu. Did you know? My heart is bitter! The company is gone, everything is gone. All my savings, my parents' life savings, are gone, gone! As he spoke, Xiao Jie picked up a full wine glass and wanted to do it again.

Lu Tianyu hurriedly stretched out his hand, snatched the wine glass from Xiao Jie's hand, and said in a deep voice: "Senior brother." You can't drink anymore! Tell me, what the hell is going on? ”

"Hey......" Xiao Jie let out a long sigh. Consciousness was slightly clearer. Under Lu Tianyu's questioning, he told the truth of the matter.

It turned out that when Asuka was first established, it had borrowed a five-year loan from the bank as the company's working capital. In the first two years, when the company's business was okay, Xiao Jie was able to repay the interest normally on a monthly basis. But this year, the situation is no longer good, with the decline in performance, the company's book funds are becoming more and more tight, and the interest owed to the bank has not been repaid for three months. As a result, the bank sent a special person to inform the door at noon yesterday that the interest owed must be repaid as soon as possible, otherwise, it will require the company to return the principal in advance, plus interest.

"Lu Tianyu, I was really forced to a dead end. The bank requires me to pay the interest I owe by May 5th, where can I go to find money in such a short period of time? A group of brothers and friends in the past, now they hide when they see me, for fear that I will ask them to borrow money! I know it, Nima, when you have money, you are treated as a friend, and when you don't have money, you are treated as garbage. This is life, and this is the society we have now. Fucking! Bastard! It can be seen that Xiao Jie is already a little hysterical at this time.

In the face of this senior brother who has been defeated and defeated repeatedly, Lu Tianyu was speechless and comforted, at this moment, all he could do was to try his best to help him get through this difficult time in front of him.

"Senior brother, how much do you owe the bank?"

"I borrowed 800,000 yuan from the bank, and the interest I had to repay every month was about 2,400 yuan." Xiao Jie said weakly.

"Senior brother, I'll lend you a sum of money first, and you can run the company normally first. This company is your brainchild, and you can't just collapse like that. There is no need to pay back the money in a hurry, and I don't need to use the money for the time being. Lu Tianyu said.

"Hey, no! After so many years of hard work, I finally realized that I am really not a piece of entrepreneurial material. Let me write code and program is okay, let me manage a group of people, manage a company, I am strong in heart but not enough. A friend wanted to buy 49% of my company's shares, and the offer price was 1.5 million yuan, but I didn't agree. Now I'm going to look for him again and see if he wants it, and if so, I'll sell it all to him, I don't want to do it. ”

"Senior brother, let me say something ugly, based on the current situation of your company, I'm afraid it won't sell for much money, right?"

"I can sell as much as I can, I won't take the money from the sale myself, keep some for my parents, and send the rest to the remaining brothers in the company, it's not easy for them to follow me, I can't treat them badly."

"Senior brother, what should you do then? What's next? ”

"Let's take one step at a time! It is possible to find a software company and apply to be a programmer; Or take a break for a while and go out for a few months; Or stay at home with your parents. I suddenly found that in the past few years, I have only cared about starting my own business, and I haven't chatted with my parents properly, and inadvertently, I found that they are old, so old that they already have gray hair, and their foreheads are full of wrinkles, hey......"

Xiao Jie's words suddenly aroused Lu Tianyu's homesickness, "Mom, Dad, are you okay?" Little sister, are you okay? Summer vacation in two months, I'll definitely be back to see you. ”

"Lu Tianyu, thank you for coming over to chat with me and listening to my complaints. It's not too early, it's time for me to go home, my parents are still waiting for me at home, I should accompany them well. As he spoke, Xiao Jie staggered to his feet, but looking at his consciousness, he was much more sober.

Suddenly, a bold plan popped up in Lu Tianyu's heart, and he said loudly: "Senior brother, you can transfer the company's equity to me." (To be continued......)
