Cheng Yu didn't bother to explain this, even if he saw that Zhang Ziqing didn't believe it.

Seeing Cheng Yu like this, Zhang Ziqing felt more and more that Cheng Yu was just bragging, and after all, he was still a second ancestor who inherited his father's shadow.

Of course, Zhang Ziqing does not look down on the second generation, he himself is also a second generation, because of this, he knows very well that because of the affluence of the conditions, the second generation can often receive a better education, and the people and things that can be contacted around them are also beyond the reach of ordinary people.

In fact, the vast majority of the second generation are much ahead of ordinary people from the starting line, not to mention that whether they inherit the family business or start their own business, they are ahead in capital, which is even more unimaginable for ordinary people.

It is true that there will be some losers in the second generation, and social news is often more keen to report these, which gives many ordinary people the illusion that the second generation is mentally retarded.

In fact, the probability of a loser among the second generation is far lower than that of ordinary people, but ordinary people have no chance of losing their family, and secondly, only the people around him care about and talk about losing their family, and it is impossible for the media to focus on ordinary people's losers.

It can be said that the second generation's failures are infinitely amplified by the media, and in film and television works and some literary works, such extreme groups will also be depicted, so that ordinary people will firmly believe that if the second generation does not rely on their parents and families, they are actually far inferior to them.

Over the years, there have also been some anti-chicken soups, telling this cruel truth, people are richer than you, more educated than you, and better looking than you, but they still work harder than you.

This is probably the way most second-generation people live.

Regarding the comparison between the second generation and ordinary people, it is like a widely circulated joke that says that men become bad when they are rich.

But in fact, it does not mean that men will "become bad" when they have money, in fact, when they have no money, they are just thieves and have no guts, and the most important thing is that they have no money and courage. A lot of things are not that the person doesn't do them, it's just because he doesn't have the money.

When you suddenly have money, it may not necessarily get worse, but it is normal to retaliate against society to a small extent and on a small scale.

On the contrary, the second generation has seen that many so-called "bad" things are just a part of life for them, and there is no such thing as getting bad.

But all this does not prevent Zhang Ziqing from feeling that Cheng Yu may be the kind of second generation who mainly relies on his father's shadow and does not work hard enough.

However, Zhang Ziqing also understands that with the country that Cheng Guangnian laid for Cheng Yu, Cheng Yu does have enough reasons not to work so hard.

"Cheng Shao, are you coming to the United States on official business this time?" Zhang Ziqing asked again.

Cheng Yu said: "It's half official and half private, it's related to the project at hand, but here in the United States, the main thing is to come back and meet a few classmates." ”

"Oh, Cheng Shao went to college in Los Angeles?"

Because I checked a little before, although there is not much information about Cheng Yu on the Internet, Zhang Ziqing still deduced from Cheng Guangnian's information that Cheng Yu has just turned twenty-one years old. Therefore, he intuitively felt that Cheng Yu, who had returned to China to work at this age, must not be studying in a very good university in the United States, and it was estimated that it was the kind of school that could be entered by paying a little money.

Anyway, I can be regarded as having drunk foreign ink.

Cheng Yu nodded and said, "Well, USC." ”

Zhang Ziqing was stunned for a moment, Nanjia was very unexpected by him.

"What major does Cheng Shao study?"

"College of Business. ”

Zhang Ziqing was stunned again, USC is actually about the top 20 schools in the United States as a whole, but its business school is definitely in the top ten, and sometimes it may be squeezed into the top five.

In particular, Professor Rogers, a well-known macroeconomist in the United States, is also a visiting professor at USC, on the one hand, he takes doctoral students, and I heard that he will also check the thesis for bachelors.

"It's a good major, it's almost in the top five in the United States. No, ...... your age?" Zhang Ziqing was full of questions, but it was not easy to ask directly, so he hesitated.

Cheng Yu smiled slightly and said, "It only took me less than three years to complete enough credits, and I felt that it was not interesting to continue to stay in school, so I submitted my thesis application." Then the thesis passed smoothly and I completed it last year. The people who came to the school with me are still studying at the school except me. Most of them I don't expect to finish this year, probably next year. ”

Zhang Ziqing's eyes were blue.

Nima, is it true?

Graduated from USC's business school with enough credits in less than three years?

Didn't you say that USC Business School graduate papers are all checked by Professor Rogers?

A student who has only studied business for three years can write a thesis that even Professor Rogers is satisfied with?

This is even bigger than the previous brocade just now.

Zhang Ziqing shook his head secretly in his heart, and didn't continue to ask, he only felt that Cheng Yu didn't know if he bought a fake graduation certificate and bachelor's degree certificate from USC Business School and went back to deceive his family.

With a ding dong, Cheng Yu took out his mobile phone from his pocket.

It was a voice message from his classmate Klotten.

Cheng Yu didn't shy away from it, and directly clicked on the voice message, and Klotten's voice came out.

"Cheng, I heard Morris say that you are ready to return to China, and today at the school, I met Professor Rogers' assistant and had a few words with him.

When he heard that you were back in Los Angeles, he asked me to bring you a message.

If you have the heart now, Professor Rogers is still willing to accept you as his PhD student this year.

I don't know what to hear, and it's not convenient to ask, what the hell is going on?"

Cheng Yu smiled and replied directly: "When I applied to submit my thesis last year, Professor Rogers was very unhappy at first, thinking that I hadn't even completed three years in the college, and even if I had completed enough credits, I shouldn't easily propose to graduate early.

The dissertation he gave me was a bit of a difficult one, and it was mainly about the subprime mortgage crisis in the United States and the global economic weakness, which was his specialty.

And then you know, a genius like me, the old man was shocked when he read my paper.

On the spot, he said that he wanted to accept me as his doctoral student, but I refused.

The old man wept bitterly, feeling that the United States had lost another great economist.

I thought this was over, but I didn't expect the old man to be quite reluctant.

I'm already on the plane now, and my domestic company is doing well, I don't plan to continue studying, and my interest is not in the macroeconomics area.

If they ask you again, you can just say I'm not interested. ”

Klotten's side didn't know what his reaction would be when he heard the news, anyway, Zhang Ziqing had already collapsed.

If these words were just Cheng Yu talking to himself, he would definitely still think that Cheng Yu liked to brag, anyway, he had already heard Cheng Yu brag two or three times just now.

But the problem is that Kloten said it first, and Cheng Yu also received his news, combined with Kloten's words, Zhang Ziqing can easily analyze it clearly, even if there are exaggerated parts in Cheng Yu's words, but the whole incident must be true.

Cheng Yu really graduated in less than three years, and his classmates are indeed still studying, and Professor Rogers is really his thesis advisor, and he is trying to accept Cheng Yu as a doctoral student, and even after Cheng Yu left the school for almost a year, he still thinks about this student......

Nima, co-author, isn't this bragging?

So, is it possible that Qianjin is really operated by Cheng Yu alone?

Soon, Zhang Ziqing rejected this article again, after all, he is gifted in reading and is especially good at exams, which may be the impression that most Chinese students studying in the United States and Europe give to students from other countries.

In Europe and the United States, Chinese students often suffer in a context, even if communication and even professional language are not a problem, but in the expression of grammar, in the paper, relatively still suffer a little.

But Cheng Yu studied in junior high and high school in the United States, and stayed in the United States throughout his youth, to put it bluntly, there is not much difference between him and American citizens in terms of language sense.

Such a person, coupled with a talent for exams, and perhaps a little genius himself, it is possible that Professor Rogers was impressed by the writing of his papers.

And the operation of things like the Xixi subway project is not a simple exam or a few days to get done.

This requires a lot of experience, whether it is bid-rigging, bidding and final bid opening, as well as a lot of preparatory work in the early stage, it is simply impossible for a fledgling young man to do it. Even if a battle-hardened veteran like Cheng Guangnian or Du Changfeng wants to say that he can do this on his own, it is difficult for people to believe it.

Kloten quickly replied to the message, he smiled and said: "Haha, I haven't seen you for the past few days, but you have made a lot of publicity, and you used to be very low-key when you were in the academy."

I don't dare talk to Professor Rogers' assistant like that, and I hope to be a Ph.D. student in Professor Rogers when I graduate.

Speaking of which, what is your relationship with Professor Rogers?

It is even more difficult for the students of our school to get his doctoral examination, but you are good, it is Professor Rogers who took the initiative to accept you as his doctoral student......

Cheng Yu replied with a smile: "What can I have to do with him?"

It was when I was writing my thesis that I came into contact with him a few times.

Oh yes, my paper was later recommended by him to be published, I don't remember where it was published, it's a very high-level economic journal anyway.

Professor Rogers' assistant contacted me once and said that there was a manuscript fee, and I asked him to donate it to the college's fund on his behalf.

Then he asked me and said that Professor Rogers wanted to recommend your paper to the faculty as a required reading in macroeconomics. ”

After receiving the news, Kloten immediately remembered that there was indeed a paper on subprime mortgages in the United States and the global economic downturn in this year's required essay subjects, and he didn't pay attention to the author at that time, only saw the name of Professor Rogers, and the second author ignored it.

He directly found out the list of papers that the school asked them to read this year, and then found the paper, and at a glance, sure enough, the second author of the paper was Cheng Yu.

This shows that Professor Rogers should have helped Cheng Yu make certain revisions before the publication of the paper, and this paper is indeed written by Professor Rogers. But the main writer must be Cheng Yu, and the reason why Professor Rogers also signed it, and he was the first to sign it, was not taking advantage of Cheng Yu.

Instead, he just wanted to help Cheng Yu publish the paper smoothly.

After checking the journal in which the paper was published, it was definitely one of the top economics journals in the United States and even the world, and Kloten was even more surprised.

Then, he quickly replied to Cheng Yu and said: "Cheng, I'm really jealous of you, God seems to have given you all the best things."

I saw your paper, it was really well written, and our teacher talked about your paper several times in class.

It's just that I didn't notice that the author of this paper was actually you. ”

"Haha, genius is like that, you continue to be jealous. Okay, I'm on the plane, so I won't tell you more. ”

After receiving Cheng Yu's reply, Krotten also shook his head speechlessly, no wonder Professor Rogers had to accept Cheng Yu as a doctoral student, just based on this paper, I know how much Professor Rogers values Cheng Yu.

Zhang Ziqing, who was already thinking about how to find an excuse not to continue talking, stayed because of Klotten's unexpected voice message.

It's just that this is a little embarrassing, in fact, the conversation was quite good just now, but Zhang Ziqing felt that Cheng Yu was bragging, so he interrupted the topic.

After thinking about it, Zhang Ziqing said in his heart that after he interrupted the topic just now, Cheng Yu received a voice message, and his performance should also be explained as not wanting to disturb Cheng Yu's conversation with others.

So, he said: "Cheng Shao, just listening to what you said about your graduation from USC in less than three years, I didn't expect Professor Rogers to actually want to accept you as his doctoral student! Professor Rogers is one of the best macroeconomists in the United States, and many of his doctoral students are experts in the industry. You're just giving up the opportunity to further your education?"

Cheng Yu waved his hand and said, "The old man wants me to enter the laboratory, build an economic model, and then become a theoretical scholar." I know very well that I'm not that kind of person, and even if I were to be a research scholar, I wouldn't be able to do it for Americans. China is on the rise, and we need to contribute more. ”

Zhang Ziqing hesitated slightly, but still gave a thumbs up and said, "Cheng Shao's heart is pure, but I am narrow-minded." ”

Cheng Yu turned his face to look at him, and said in his heart that this person was not humble or arrogant, and he didn't say that he would kneel and lick when he came up to talk, and his impression of Zhang Ziqing was a little better.

Cheng Yu asked casually: "Since Brother Zhang is from Liangguang, there is a direct plane to Yangcheng in Los Angeles, right? Even if you fly to Hong Kong Island, isn't this closer to home?"

Zhang Ziqing hurriedly said: "I want to go to Xixi, so I chose the flight to the magic capital." Maybe this is also a kind of fate, otherwise how can I get to know Cheng Shao. ”

Cheng Yu laughed and said, "Are you going to Xixi on business?"

"It's not like it's about meeting a friend.

Two years ago, when I first returned to China to start a business, he also invested in me.

However, the project was sold in the end, and although he did not lose money, the profit was not high.

However, my current project went very smoothly later, but at that time, my family gave me money, and then I went directly to the A round, and I never looked for him.

But I have always been a little reluctant to go, I heard that his old father was undergoing surgery in the United States, so I went to visit, and by the way, I learned about the old man's condition.

As for the old man's illness, I happen to know a German doctor who has been immersed in this field for several years, and I don't know how good it compares with that American doctor.

But I thought that since I knew about it, and I happened to know the German expert, it would be good to give them a reference. ”

Cheng Yu listened, his heart seemed to coincide a little, Xixi, and he had the strength to invest in Zhang Ziqing, his father was sick and underwent surgery in the United States, which seemed to fit together, not to mention Xue Changyun's father Xue Jindong, right?

So, he asked tentatively, "Are you talking about Xue Changyun?"

Zhang Ziqing was stunned for a moment, and said: "Cheng Shao also knows Xue Gongzi? Also, you are all in the Yangtze River Delta Economic Zone, and you are all famous families, so it is normal for you to know each other." ”

Cheng Yu waved his hand and said, "My family doesn't have much to do with his family, but I personally have some cooperation with him." When you went to Xixi, did you contact Xue Gongzi to confirm?"

Zhang Ziqing shook his head and said, "No, he invested in me back then, and he didn't handle it directly, and I don't have his contact information."

I tried to contact the person who handled it at the beginning, but that person had already left Xue Gongzi, and it was inconvenient for him to give me Xue Gongzi's contact information.

I thought, I'll go to Xixi first, and then find a friend, there is always someone who knows him.

It doesn't matter if you can't see it at that time, as long as you can pass on a message.

In this way, it seems that I don't need to go to Xixi, if it is convenient for Cheng Shao, just help me tell Xue Gongzi the doctor's information.

If it helps, you can ask him to contact me again......"

Cheng Yu waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't be so troublesome, and I'm also a big man, go and be a messenger for you?" As he spoke, Cheng Yu rolled his eyes, and Zhang Ziqing felt a pang in his heart, and realized that he had said the wrong thing.

"Cheng Shao, I didn't mean that, but I'm afraid that Xue Gongzi may not remember the investment back then, I'm just talking about the heart, not trying to have a relationship with Xue Gongzi. I don't dare to let you act as a messenger, but ...... Just ......"

"Okay, don't explain, I'll ask Lao Xue. ”

After that, Cheng Yu took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Xue Changyun> Soon, Xue Changyun replied to the message.

"I'm still missing your kid, I haven't heard from you for half a month, right? Leaving your little wife alone at home and keeping the empty room, where did you go?" Xue Changyun replied with a voice, joking with Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu also pretended to be displeased and joked: "Hey, I know you have been coveting my daughter-in-law, don't kick your nose in the face, I really don't dare to hit you?"

"Bah, if I covet Xiaoyu, what else will happen to you? I grew up with her as a child. ”

"So, it's because it's a child, it's too familiar, so it's not easy to start. Okay, I'm not going to play cymbals with you, I'll have something serious to tell you. ”

"Well, I happen to have something to look for you, I'll go to Wudong in a while, let's meet and talk. ”

"I'm still on the plane, and it's going to take about 10 hours to land. If you go back to Wudong from the magic capital, you won't have to go tomorrow. ”

"You really can do it, then that's it, I'll go to Wudong tomorrow...... Forget it, I'll go the day after tomorrow, you have been out in the wild for half a month, and you are newlywed after a long absence, so you don't know how long you have to toss. ”

"Looks like you really don't want to get better...... I don't talk to you about that, I really have something to tell you. In this way, you still come to Wudong tomorrow, and I will introduce someone to you first. ”
