Chapter 1: Past and Present Lives
With a little bit of dissatisfaction after being denied by the elders in the family because of his views, Charlie came to the club activity center with a familiar car, and found Pan Le, who was immersed in the music club activity room and was constantly sketching on the music book, and seemed to be full of only musical notes: "Le, when will we sell the Yahoo shares in our hands?" ”
"What's wrong?" Pan Le didn't raise his head, didn't squint, and asked casually.
Charlie shrugged: "The group of observers from the Purple Shirt Venture Capital persuaded my family, and my family has decided to cash out their Yahoo shares!" ”
"Is it because Yahoo stock has shown a lack of stamina in recent times?" Pan Le was a little serious, and finally raised his head.
"I guess so! It's been a month since the listing, and the stock value has only shown a very slight upward trend after the surge, which is completely inconsistent with the business philosophy of venture capital......"
Pan Le said indifferently: "If you are not optimistic, then throw it away step by step, or find someone who is willing to enter the next family to take over!" ”
"What about your hand? Leave it to them to cash in together? Charlie asked, staring at Pan Le with inquiring eyes, for fear of missing any subtle expression.
Pan Le smiled and said, "Mine, of course I will continue to hold it!" When to make a move, it depends on my mood! ”
Just kidding, Yahoo's stock value is far from peaking now, and a $5 million investment can be exchanged for hundreds of millions of dollars in business in a few years. If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't get more funds, Pan Le wanted to eat the share in the hands of the Purple Shirt Fund!
“……”
Charlie was speechless for a while, and then spoke again for a long time: "How much room do you think Yahoo's stock value still has to rise?" ”
"It's not that I think, but I'm sure Yahoo's stock will continue to rise. As for why I'm sure, it's based on the popularity of the Internet, personal computers, and other related supporting software and hardware facilities in the United States. This is not something that we, venture capital funds, or even shareholders can control at all! ”
Pan Le really didn't understand finance before, let alone the stock market, but since he got involved in it, he still knows a lot of things. For example, the content of his current statement is the knowledge he has gained from this investment.
Charlie, who finally found a trace of comfort in his partner and gained joy, smiled: "I didn't expect you to be so optimistic about the development of the Internet and personal computers in our United States!" Those so-called successful people who shout that the Internet is toxic and shout for a ban on abolition should come and learn from you. ”
Pan Le did not live in a vacuum, and naturally knew the existence of this call from the conservative school in the United States, and shook his head: "The development of some things is like the wheel of history, and the inertia is so great that it cannot be stopped by manpower." ”
"Since you're so optimistic about Yahoo's stock value, let's continue to hold it ourselves. Let's join hands and teach those self-righteous little foxes a good lesson, and let them know that sometimes self-confidence and perseverance are more important than speculative vision! After Charlie made his decision, his whole body was on fire.
In his words, it is not difficult to see that this guy seems to be more worthy of boasting about being able to do something that his elders have not done, than making more money in itself.
It's a pity that Pan Le couldn't find much excitement in this: "And then? And then they praise you for a few words, and the blue is better than the blue? Or give you a big red flower to wear on your chest? These are all virtual, only banknotes can really be used for shopping and consumption! ”
"As a partner, I have to remind you that sometimes letting them see our achievements also means very, very generous money rewards. If we are not good enough, how can we successfully take over our family business? ”
"Your thinking logic is actually a kind of gnawing old mentality. And do I need it? ”
"Who would hate money and burn more hands? Let's go, I have to rush back and take our share out of the cash-out operation! Charlie, who was in a good mood, did not intend to continue arguing on this issue, and immediately stood up and took his leave.
Just as Charlie was about to walk out of the music club room, Pan Le dropped the music pen and score book in his hand and called Charlie: "Do you have any more reliable private detective resources in your hands?" ”
This question immediately aroused Charlie's curiosity. He circled around, approached Pan Le and asked, "What are you going to do with a private detective?" Have a new investment project? ”
"It's not!"
Pan Le closed the music book in front of him that he used to listen to songs, play and compose music to practice his hands, and threw it aside, then got up and made a few stretching movements to hide his inner unpeace: "Didn't I be in a coma for a while after the car accident?" For a while, I had a long, long, coherent dream. In that dream, there are countless specific people, addresses, and events......"
"It's so real, and you wake up and remember a lot of things very clearly, so you want to find a private investigator to verify this dream? Oh, buy it! Do you think that everything that happens in your dreams will really exist in reality? Charlie patted his forehead, as if Pan Le's crazy idea was about to collapse the logical system.
Pan Le was indifferent to his partner's exaggerated movements, and almost said to himself: "I don't care if it's true or not!" I just need to know if there is a group of people or things in that place that I am familiar with. Those people and things in the dream are almost schizophrenic to me, okay! ”
"So serious?"
"It's worse than you can imagine! The me in my dreams often gives me an urge to go back to the world in my dreams! I'm afraid that if I obey this impulse one day, I will fall into a coma again and become a vegetative state again! ”
Charlie stared at Pan Le for half a minute, and when he saw that the other party's gaze did not dodge, he took it seriously. He pondered for a while and said, "I can't have ready-made resources in this area, after all, all I have access to are commercial spies."
But they all eat this bowl of rice, and those guys should have more reliable acquaintances in this regard. Go back and you list up a survey form, and I'll help you do it. All in all, the less people know, the better. ”
Seeing Pan Le's puzzled face, Charlie smiled proudly: "I know that in your Chinese world, your attitude towards mental illness is very unscientific. Once you think there is something wrong with something, your life is completely ruined. So, I'll keep it a secret for you. ”
"Hey, do I want to accept such a big favor from you? The attitude of the Chinese in this regard is indeed not scientific enough, but psychological intervention in our Lion City is a very, very normal thing, okay? You guy, can you treat your partner a little more sunny? Can you not just think about camping when you encounter something? Can you still have fun? ”
How could Pan Le not know this guy's little abacus, so he stared at him on the spot and pierced him without hesitation. On the basis of rejecting this favor of 'concealing mental condition', it will not leave any handle because of this.
What's more, I admit that I have a problem with my mental state, and whoever wants to bite me with this matter in the future will get out!
"Ok, ok, go back and get the investigation list out, I'll find a reliable person to help you get things done, it's not a favor, it's always okay, right? You guy, do you want to be as cunning as a fox? Isn't it my intention to use something to deepen the relationship between our partners? ”
Seeing Charlie disappear outside the door, Pan Le sat back in the back chair as if he was almost in collapse.
In Charlie's eyes, this matter may be just a willful act, at most just an act of self-soothing soul. But for Pan Le, it is of great significance.
He knew exactly where he came from, and he knew very well that those memories were not dreams, but real self-awareness. With this body leaving no traces of thought, how could Pan Le's personality be split because of this?
In the layout of today's students, the network has been rolled out step by step in the world's top aristocratic college, and the available and untied expendable funds have also been laid out. Nine is not far from ten; When the life plan is about to be launched, the urge in Pan Le's heart to contact the origin of his past life can no longer be suppressed.
Because he knows very well that once his life plan in this life starts, it will definitely be as fast as a storm transiting. At that time, I don't know how many pairs of eyes will linger on me, and it will be inconvenient for me to make a difference in this matter!
Therefore, Pan Le carefully choreographed a rather perfect lie, accompanied by his own quite perfect performance, and put this matter in front of him before he became the target of all attention.
After sitting silently for a long time, Pan Le came back to his senses from the thought of checking and filling in the gaps. I took the music book again, and turned to a blank page with only staves, but what I wrote had nothing to do with the content of the music:
Address: Beihu Province, XX City, XX County, Nishang Town
Figure:......
Event:......
……
I don't know when, it's already dark outside.
Countless hazy street lamps and the entire tree-lined New Century College are particularly poetic, which is a beautiful scenery that Pan Le indulges in. It's a pity that there are less than 200 students here, and the female students belong to the type of provocation and marriage, so this romantic environment is wasted.
Pan Le, who is deeply immersed in memories, is constantly editing the content in his heart and mind that he wants to verify with words, and the entire music club room is full of the sound of pen nibs rubbing against paper.
However, such a graceful and tranquil style was suddenly broken by a loud knock on the door: "I guessed you would be here!" It's really, quite hard! ”
"Come on, there's still ten minutes!"
Hearing this kind of tone, which has been seriously assimilated by his own voice style from the new school of later generations, Pan Le raised his head and looked at Shi Nai'an, the first good friend he developed in the academy and the supplier of channel carrier hardware in his life plan in the future, and smiled slightly: "Let's go to dinner later!" You wait for me for a while, and then find some music that interests you to listen to. ”
