Mercy is true, and the comparison is clear.

It is said that the next Yin Xing is a partner, and Songyang Mengjue Xu follows.

It is said that if you come to raise it, you will have a high ambition, and you will not chase chickens.

Holding the slender hand stretched out, I raised my eyes to look at Sister Xu Yang, and a trace of doubt flashed in my heart, guessing what she wanted to say so solemnly.

Sister Xu Yang's eyes flickered, and she seemed to be conflicted. After a long time, I opened my mouth several times, but closed it again and shook my hand away: "Forget it, let's talk about it later." ”

Seeing that she seemed a little embarrassed, I held back and didn't ask despite my concern. He opened his arms and hugged her gently, pretending to be indifferent and smiling goodbye, and watched Sister Xu Yang run upstairs.

Walking alone on the way back, she has been silently thinking, what would make her so embarrassed? If there's something, she can't be short of money.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but shake her head, she shouldn't have anything to need money now. If it was really that simple, Sister Xu Yang's surname would not be like this.

Thinking about it, I don't have a few big children in my pocket now, and even if she really needs it urgently, it will definitely not work if she has less. I really couldn't take out too many words, and I denied my thoughts as I walked.

Sister Yueru said not long ago, I didn't expect the Internet to burn money so much, just to expand the influence, I added some advertising investment in virtual media, and the small amount of start-up capital was almost spent. She also wants to put some advertising in print media.

I have to find a way to raise funds quickly, and now I am really short of money! The fame has risen a bit, which can be felt by the sharp increase in clicks on the website. But my purpose is not only that, but the shortage of funds is difficult to make any more progress.

Sister Yueru wanted to invest her savings in it, but I refused. At this time, it is obviously inappropriate to use her private money. When the outlook is not clear, I am embarrassed myself, and it is not good to put her in again. What's more, in the current situation, even if you invest hundreds of thousands of dollars, it won't solve much of a problem at all.

Hey, I'm just happy with Sister Yang today, I forgot to ask Yuping again to see if Uncle Xue has any other way. Now, it dawns on me that money does sometimes matter.

Back in the apartment, Cao Yu and Yuping had just returned from school, and after talking about the difficulties they were currently experiencing, she said that she didn't dare to open her mouth to her father and asked me to ask myself.

Alas, until now, I have no choice but to go out on my own.

******

When I came back from Uncle Xue, I was completely gone. He explained to me that with the current state of our small site, it would be difficult to get a loan from them.

I was not reconciled, and then asked if there was a way from other financial institutions, Uncle Xue explained seriously: a small company like ours already has a loan that has not been repaid, and it is unrealistic to want to get new funds from any other financial institution, and it will definitely not pass the review level.

So, what should I do? It's really a mess. Seeing that the exam was approaching again, for the first time in my life, I felt that it was so difficult to do something.

Yunxi wants to expand its business and urgently needs funds, so it must not be counted on, and [Yicheng Science and Trade] even if he takes all his family funds, he will not be able to pay a drop in the bucket. These two industries that used to be relatively proud turned out to be just small businesses.

If I borrow money from Sister Chen or other places, my self-esteem does not allow it. I can't help but secretly blame myself, I thought about things so simply in advance, blindly optimistic, and when it came to the end, I was at a loss. I am used to going smoothly, and this time I really feel that it is difficult, it turns out that it is so difficult to start a business.

Even so, I'm still working hard and running around to see if I can find a good solution, whether it succeeds or not, it's an opportunity to practice. But in the end, it was all in vain.

After a few days of hard work, my heart was anxious, my lips were chapped, and there were blisters all around, and I looked at my haggard face in the mirror and realized that the world was difficult. Under this torture, it is as if suddenly a few years older.

Sister Yueru understands the current situation, and she is also trying her best to contact her acquaintances and think of a way. As long as they come together, they comfort me day and night. But I know that she is also anxious.

The development of the situation was really unexpected, and it was very different from the optimistic assumptions at the beginning.

Both of them tried their best to pretend that they didn't care on the surface, and their hearts seemed to be on fire. To do something big, capital is so important.

Sister Yueru is struggling to maintain with the remaining limited funds, and I know in my heart that if I don't get new capital injections in the near future, it won't be long before the newly established company closes down.

At this point, the final exam, which was the most headache for my classmates, became a rare opportunity for me to take a break from my brain.

The dejected appearance of my soul attracted the attention of my classmates, who were usually close to me, and they all asked what was going on, but who could say this?

I used to develop a habit of reporting something to Sister Chen and listening to her opinion. But now that it has developed like this, even for her, I don't dare to mention it again, and I don't even dare to make more phone calls, for fear that there will be another person to worry about me.

If she spoke, it was not impossible for Sister Chen to get some money from Uncle Qi to save the emergency, but the idea of surviving the difficulties on her own made me stop this thought. If I can't even do this little thing, what face do I have to face the beauty, no matter what, this is a rare exercise.

"Yicheng, tomorrow is the graduation ceremony of our senior brothers, let's go and cheer together." The words of the squad leader Teng Tianjie interrupted my contemplation.

"I'm not going, there's a little bit of a trifle." I prevaricated, how could I be in such a mood now.

"No, this is a task arranged by the college, and I must go to see off the seniors, and the head of the department has specifically mentioned you." It was rare to see me in Pingli, so he directly lifted me out of the department to press me. Isn't the school just afraid that there will be fewer people and it won't be lively, so it pulls us to fill the façade?

Although it doesn't matter if you want to miss me, but since it's a unified action, I thought about it and agreed, I haven't participated in a group action for a long time, and I have less contact with my classmates, so let's relax again.

******

In the auditorium of the college, the graduation ceremony was magnificent and lively. It seems that the school is a little worried, although it is divided into several campuses at the same time, this auditorium is still overcrowded. If it weren't for the fact that a few of us came early, I'm afraid we would have to stand outside the door.

Looking at the seniors who are about to leave the school, I also have a lot of emotions in my heart. The faces of the brothers and sisters with different expressions are thought-provoking. Even if there is the reluctance of classmates to separate, there is even more confusion about the uncertain future, and of course, there is no lack of smug smiles.

College is no longer the paradise that we yearn for, and for most people, it is just a stop in life. A small starting point, that's all.

As if seeing myself and the classmates around me three years later, in the eyes of most of the current students, there is more of a yearning for a better life and reverence for the departing seniors and seniors.

yes, they're leaving school and starting their own business. So what does my future look like? Alas, not to mention the future, it is enough to distress me for the present.

If you can't raise your emotions, you don't have the heart to listen to the voice from the other side, and you only think about how to tide over the difficulties.

The leaders of the participating schools at all levels spoke alternately and expressed their best wishes to the students who were about to leave the school. All this came to my ears, and it just felt empty and tasteless. For graduates who have already found a job, this blessing is undoubtedly sweet, but for those who do not know where the flowers are, it is naturally meaningless.

Whether it is by oneself or by relationship, the economy and society are the law of the jungle, even if they come from prestigious schools, but they have a little more pitiful opportunities than others.

More seniors will probably continue to embark on the arduous road of postgraduate entrance examination, just like the university entrance examination back then, and everyone crossed the single-plank bridge. Maybe when everyone gets a higher diploma, they will find that this can no longer help much, and then there will still be a few joys and a few sorrows.

Among the representatives of the graduates, I suddenly found the shadow of Zheng Tingzhou. He is still so chic and confident. For him, graduation is just a formality, with an extra piece of paper in his hand and nothing else.

Thinking of his tens of millions of assets in the legend, I admire it even more. Either way, he's a success. is a person who is qualified to laugh at the world.

Brother Zheng's smile made me can't help but search for the shadow of another person in the crowd -- Hang Haisheng.

Next year, Hang Haisheng will also graduate, and he has also accumulated abundant funds, and his smile will definitely be so bright. As for me, I'm already scorched, how can they do it with ease?

Since that conflict, I have never had contact with Hang Haisheng again, and as time goes by, the resentment in my heart cannot be eliminated, but becomes stronger and stronger. In contrast, after a few contacts, I felt that Yi Xueqian was still relatively simple, and she basically didn't have too much hostility towards her.

Whenever I hear people talk about Hang Haisheng, what he did, and how much money he made, I feel inexplicably uncomfortable.

The smiling faces on the stage, the loud cheers from the audience. I had no intention of listening, so I quietly left my classmates and stood in a position at the back of the auditorium, my thoughts already flying to the sidelines.

The more I realized that I was just an ordinary person. I have always had a strong rejection of Hang Haisheng, and aside from personal grievances, I am still jealous that he has so much money.

Peeked into the depths of his heart, only to realize that such a thought had been hidden all along. Maybe I didn't think about taking revenge on him, but I had to surpass him in every way, and at this point, I suddenly found that this desire was so strong, so mercilessly devouring me.

For Zheng Tingzhou, I don't have this kind of thought, I like it very much, and what he said when I met him for the first time stayed deeply in my heart. Maybe it's all preconceived, it seems that it is impossible to change the opinion of Hang Haisheng. But in the current situation, will my wish to exceed his wish be fulfilled in the past few years in college?

Turning a deaf ear to everything around me until the crowd suddenly crowded in, I quickly flashed to the side to make way for everyone to pass.

When I came back to my senses, I found that the ceremony had ended and everyone was leaving. I didn't want to join the crowd of retreats, and seeing that there were already plenty of empty seats in the auditorium, I simply found a place to sit down and continue to think about it.

Suddenly, someone tapped me on the shoulder, and one of them was taken aback. Looking back, it turned out to be him.

With a handsome smile and a pair of eyes that seem to be able to see his heart, it is actually the eldest brother Zheng Tingzhou I admire.

"Brother Zheng, I still want to congratulate you when I have time. I didn't think you found me first. Hurry up and calm down and greet with a smile. I was very impressed with his eyes, and I didn't know if they had the function of perspective. Fortunately, I've been practicing my Pure Heart Chant all the time, and even if it can't be effective, it's okay to hide my thoughts.

"Come on, good brother, come and sit." He motioned for the classmates around him to go first, and pulled me to sit down a short distance.

"Brother, I heard that you have set up an auxiliary payment platform?" He asked, holding my hand affectionately. It was so direct, it surprised me.

Ah, I did such a little thing, and few people in the school knew about it, so I didn't expect him to hear about it, and I couldn't help but feel a little proud. Brother Zheng is an extraordinary person, with such a keen sense of smell.

"Yes, Brother Zheng." People even know the surname of the website, and since they can't hide it, they admit it calmly.

"How's it going, are you alright?" The eyes are gentle, but my heart can't help but hair.

Forced to smile calmly, self-esteem made me reluctant to reveal the current economic crisis: "Brother Zheng, it's not bad. ”

"Huh." Zheng Tingzhou laughed, "Brother, if I want to cooperate with you, are you willing?" ”

My heart moved, and it would be nice to have him cooperate, but why would he do it.

"Brother Zheng, you are a person who is engaged in big business, what I am doing is just a small thing, how can I get into your eyes."

"Brother Yu's technical level is known as an elder brother, and if he chooses such a good entry point, he will definitely have a great future, and where is it a small thing." Zheng Tingzhou smiled again. Suddenly found that there was a special meaning in the smile, which made people involuntarily have a sense of identity, and believed that he must have some kind of special ability.

A trace of doubt passed through my face, but it did not escape his eyes: "Are you afraid that I will encroach on your achievements?" Don't worry, as long as you agree, I will only buy some shares, and I will never interfere in business matters. You've probably heard that I'm in venture capital. ”

Yes, I've heard about it for a long time. But when it comes to venture capital, my knowledge is limited to books. It sounds like a pie-in-the-sky thing, so what is his purpose? It won't be just for poverty alleviation, I can't help but draw a question mark in my heart.

"Brother Domain, don't worry, I'm just bullish on the site's prospects. If you make a profit, you can also follow it and hope to share some dividends. I'm a venture capitalist, and if I lose money, I will admit it, and if I make money, I can also benefit from it, how about it? ”

He was very honest, and it sounded tempting. In this way, I am more certain that he has an in-depth understanding of the company's current financial situation and is completely prepared.

Brother Zheng is really a caring person, he is definitely a shrewd businessman, and the conditions put forward are difficult for me to refuse, because I am currently short of money.

I hesitated, if such a good opportunity was missed, it would be difficult to come across it in the future. My heart is jumping up, I really need money now.

I was already telling myself that I was going to agree, but I still had a hesitant expression on my face.

Zheng Tingzhou struck while the iron was hot: "If you agree, as long as you sign the contract, I can immediately transfer two million to your account, so that you can relieve the pressure and be able to work hard." ”

Two million is not a small amount. My hesitation made him think that he might still owe some heat, and threw out the big pie at once. A little anxious, but also revealed a little bit of his background, he should have paid attention to my website for a long time.

It is understandable for a businessman to seek profit, and it can only show that he is a good businessman. I'm always confident that I'm going to succeed in what I'm doing, even though I'm in a difficult situation right now. It's just that there is a lack of experience, and the assessment of difficulties is somewhat insufficient. He can see this, which shows that he has a unique vision, and it is a good thing to work with such a person.

Thinking of this, I must be in my heart, but I am not in a hurry. His search for cooperation also seems to be sincere, and it is not beautiful to appear too positive.

After pondering for a while, I said, "Brother Zheng, I have to discuss such a big matter with my partner." Your offer is very good, I will contact you again as soon as possible. ”

Zheng Tingzhou nodded: "It's okay, this is my business card, call me when you have the result." If you don't have enough money, you can invest more. ”

Seeing that there was hope, he weighed on the weight again, and actually forgot that he had given me one.

I didn't say anything, and took the business card. Go back and discuss with Sister Yueru, Cao Yu, and Yuping, if everyone thinks there is no problem, I will cooperate with Brother Zheng.

"Okay, I'll get back to you as soon as I can."

"That's it, I have to have dinner with my classmates at noon, so let's sit together again when we have time." After Zheng Tingzhou finished speaking, he left in a hurry.

I then left the auditorium, and secretly laughed in my heart, Brother Zheng is really timely rain. didn't think about anything else, and hurriedly went to Bian Yueru to discuss.

******

dragged Cao Yu and Yuping to the location of our company and ran into Sister Yueru's office.

After hearing me talk about it in detail, Cao and Xue looked at each other, and it was obvious that they didn't have any idea about it, and they also trusted me, and soon only said that everything was up to us. Sister Yueru seemed more stable and listened with her head sideways.

After seeing and talking, she said: "It's really a rare opportunity, I think it's still feasible, and now many industries will introduce venture capital." ”

Bian Yueru has gone through a lot of things, listened to my opinion, inquired about Zheng Tingzhou's situation in detail, and nodded in agreement, "What's more, we really need funds urgently now, but we have to negotiate the conditions first, don't be fooled by others." It's best to check his Pushu Investment Co., Ltd. again, it can't just be hearsay. ”

Now that she, a shopping mall veteran, agrees, I have strengthened my confidence.

Sister Yueru immediately asked a friend to investigate Pushu Investment Company, and a few of us studied the plan carefully. For a whole afternoon, a plan was made that he thought would be a viable surname.

The core point, no matter what, must occupy a dominant position in it, to be the controlling party. This is my hard work, if he doesn't agree, I have to give up, and everything else is negotiable.

Soon, Sister Yueru's friend also heard back, saying that it was definitely a regular investment company. Finally relieved, I called Brother Zheng.

Zheng Tingzhou laughed heartily: "Brother Yu, you must have figured it out." This kind of mutually beneficial good thing, I think you will not refuse, brother and I will not be wrong in my vision. ”

Listening to the tone, I was sure that I would agree, and I really had to be careful when dealing with him.

"Brother Zheng, we think it's feasible in principle, shouldn't we find a place to talk?"

"Of course. Well, I'll be at the Friendship Hotel tonight, and we'll talk about it later. ”

When Bian Yueru and I arrived, Zheng Tingzhou was already waiting in the hall. After a few pleasantries, everyone kept walking inside. I suddenly remembered that once I invited my classmates to dinner, or he settled the bill, and it was also that time that I got his business card, and it turned out that I had already owed him a favor.

Sister Yueru is used to seeing this kind of scene, and she is walking in front of the waiter as if nothing happened.

Zheng Tingzhou, who was walking behind, took my hand and whispered in my ear: "Brother, you have found a good helper." It can be seen that he is shrewd and capable. His eyes blinked, and his expression was very ambiguous.

It seems that he has a misunderstanding, and my face can't help but turn red, remembering how I asked Sister Yueru for help.

Seeing that Bian Yueru had already entered, he smiled at me: "Brother, what's there to be shy about, it's normal." However, you have to pay attention to your body. ”

The more it was depicted, it turned out that Zheng Tingzhou still had this side, and he didn't know how to explain it to him, so he punched it, and the two of them hugged their shoulders and followed in.

In the private room, a beautiful girl stood up with a smile, I have known it for a long time, it is the lively and lovely Sister Xiaoyan, Brother Zheng's girlfriend.

After a long time of not seeing, she was more relaxed and introduced to me that she had also graduated. shook hands with us generously, and her demeanor was the same as that of Sister Yueru.

She still likes to wear red clothes, she looks graceful and enchanting, and she has a charming smile on her face, which is particularly eye-catching.

Being young is also a capital, I quietly looked at Sister Yueru, talked and laughed with Xiao Yan as if nothing happened, and I couldn't help but feel even more heartbroken about her maturity.

Mingren doesn't do dark things, and after a polite conversation, seeing that Sister Yueru didn't mention it, I simply said the discussed plan.

Zheng Tingzhou nodded silently, listened to me finished, and did not express his opinion, but just warmly greeted everyone to eat.

Xiao Yan seems to think that cooperation is already a sure thing, and just laughs and talks about the future development direction. She was very talkative, and I was a little skeptical when I heard it, was she talking about the current small company that was struggling?

She and Sister Yueru can talk very well, and many places coincide.

Zheng Tingzhou only talked to me about the old days and talked about school. I admire him very much, although he is not a few years older than me, he has the style of a general, which is worth learning from.

Everyone dispersed happily, and Zheng Tingzhou told me the main topic when they parted: "Good brother, I think what you said is more fair, except for a few details, it is almost acceptable." When you go back, you can print out the official text, and after careful consideration, you can sign the contract, and I will send the money right away. ”

Seeing him so happy, I was proud all my life, and I didn't care much about this detail, so I smiled at the moment: "Brother Zheng, since everyone is happy, Sister Yueru will do everything on my side, I hope the cooperation is happy." ”

Zheng Tingzhou smiled "haha": "If you say it well, let them talk slowly." "Millions of funds are thrown out at hand, and they don't care about it, this rich person is different."

"By the way, Xiao Yan studied finance, and she has gone through a period of practice before, and now that she has graduated, she has nothing to do, so why don't you let her go over and study after the negotiation?"

Our company really lacks a good financial officer, since Brother Zheng proposed it, then she will definitely not be wrong, not to mention that people have contributed funds, and it is reasonable to put someone in.

Although it sounds good, it is not difficult to understand his intentions, how can such a big company not have his girlfriend's position.

Not long ago, Sister Yueru also said that there was a lack of formal accounting personnel, so it happened to be an instant hit. She also has a good impression of Xiao Yan, and the two of them are relatively close to each other in many places.

Xiao Yan held Bian Yueru's hand affectionately, and the matter was settled.

Everything went smoothly unexpectedly, and on the way back, Bian Yueru also seemed very excited, and couldn't help but sprout: "It's good now, as long as you have money, it's easy to do things." Xiaoyu, we have to go have a drink and celebrate. ”

As soon as the knot in my heart was removed, I was so happy that I forgot to warn Bian Yueru not to drink like this again. We didn't drink much together just now, so I had a good time with her, and when I returned to the apartment, I was even more excited and couldn't sleep.

******

I don't know if it's because of Brother Zheng's personal experience, or if Pu Shu is so efficient in doing things, the contract was negotiated quickly, the money was transferred to our account, and the company did it with great fanfare.

Now that the problem is solved, I still like to be my hands-off shopkeeper, and the specific things are left to Sister Yueru to do, not to mention that now she has a discussion with Xiao Yan.

Cao Yu didn't go back, and a few of us went to the company every day to solve some software core problems. Thanks to the employment of full-time technicians, we don't have to worry about many things.

Occasionally talking to Cao Yu, I know that almost all of my classmates have gone home for the summer vacation. Alas, I haven't been home for so long, why didn't anyone greet me? I don't know if I'm gone, it's too far away from my friends, which is not good.

I was thinking about how to contact them, flipped through the calendar, and suddenly woke up to the fact that I still had an important wish to fulfill, and I was so nervous for a while. Look at the time, it's not good, you have to hurry.
