Chapter 23: The Dinner is a bit expensive
Lin Yi and Gu Caiwei's Chinese New Year's Eve trip to Haojing had not yet been completed, so he first ran to another Jiangnan water town.
It was the first time he had come to this place, but what had happened here had already had an important impact on him and Wanli Travel.
Wuzhen.
It's the annual World Internet Conference again, and netizens are generally more concerned about who they have dinner with than what the elders of all walks of life brag about here.
It was Jack Ma who called Lin Yi.
Factory A invested in Wanli Travel, which does not mean that Ma Jack's mustard will be eliminated, in fact, he still does not want to see Lin Yi, and the communication between the two parties during this time was completed through Cai Chongxin.
This time, Jack came to Wuzhen to find face last year.
Of course, he came to Lin Yi to support himself, after all, Brother Xiao Ma was full of friends last year, so he couldn't be too lonely.
Lin rushed to the scene as soon as he received the news, and for him, there was an opportunity to repair the relationship with the major shareholders to be cherished.
In addition to Ma Jack and Lin Yi he brought, there were also Zhang Chaoyang from the Fox Factory, Zhou Hongyi who made antivirus software, and a passer-by from the Chrysanthemum Factory.
said that passerby A made fun of him, he must be a big name in the industry, but a migrant worker that no one has heard of is mixed in the middle of a group of bosses, which is indeed a bit dwarfed.
Don't look at the small number of people, but this lineup is still quite interesting if you taste it carefully.
Among them, Ding Sanshi and Zhang Chaoyang are both among the first batch of portals, and the latter has fallen behind badly in recent years, but the "seniority" in the circle can be counted.
Needless to say, the red-clothed sect leader has seen the vigorous 3Q battle, which is the same as Brother Xiaoma's bayonet.
Lin Yi's net worth is not small now, and the status of the rivers and lakes of thousands of miles of travel is there, and it is more than enough to eat at the same table with them.
However, he rarely interjected, and after getting to know a few people under the introduction of Majack, he focused on eliminating the food in front of him.
The dishes ordered by Ding Sanshi were not bad.
Lin pretended to be listening to their conversation while eating, but in fact his left ear went in and out of his right ear, but fortunately, the others didn't have to pull him into the conversation.
It's not that he is deliberately perfunctory, but a spiritual guy in his early twenties, who really has no common language with these middle-aged uncles.
What serious topics do you think they can talk about?
When the wine was hot and the cup was changed, the opening was "how to think about it back then", and the was all the story of the Year of the Monkey and Ma Yue that Lin Yi didn't know, at most it was to listen to the gossip and have a long insight.
Lin Yi is very clear about his positioning.
Today, Jack specially brought him over, just to respond to everyone's discussion of himself last year, which roughly means the following:
Lao Tzu not only has brothers, but also younger brothers!
Sure enough, when a few people here were eating happily around the small dining table, Lin Yi found that someone had filmed this scene.
He faithfully fulfilled the task of his backdrop or mascot.
The amazing thing is that no one at such a table of people mentioned the checkout when they ate, and after they were full of wine and food, they patted their butts and flashed people, as if they didn't know about it.
Lin Yi could only pray that the store was not eaten overlord meal.
Ma Jack's face was slightly red after drinking a little wine, but he was still conscious, and although he didn't need to be helped, Lin Yi still insisted on sending him back.
He trembled and pointed his finger at Lin Yi and gave a sympathetic evaluation:
"You're doing well today."
With such a sentence, Lin Yi felt that he was not running for nothing.
Today, I have done my best to help Jack Ma support this face, and he has been very respectful throughout the whole process.
Four words: the horse's head is Zhan.
It seems that Majack is still satisfied with this, so he doesn't know how his wine is, and he won't wake up the next morning and not admit it, right?
Lin Yi said a few words modestly, and secretly made malicious speculations in his heart, fortunately, Jack Ma couldn't hear it, otherwise he would probably turn his face on the spot.
"I heard that you recently invested in a bike-sharing company, and then the goose factory and Wang Xing of each group voted for another one?"
Ma Jack's news is still very well-informed, and I don't know if he is so concerned about the goose factory or every group of kings.
"There's such a thing, and I've seen the little yellow car team they voted for, to be honest, I didn't like it before they picked it."
What Lin Yi said was obviously a little different from the reality, but Ma Jack was very happy when he heard it, and waved his hand excitedly:
"That's how it should be!"
"Let me tell you, the goose factory is a paper tiger, there is nothing to be afraid of, you just fight him, don't have any worries."
"If you don't have enough money, just come to me, and I'll promise to give you a lot more than them."
You guessed it.
Ma Jack had a lot of body movements when he spoke, and he seemed excited, it shouldn't all be the effect of alcohol, it seems that Lin Yi has found the right communication posture.
It's a pity that although the sharing of bicycles is right with the goose factory, it is not the direction he wants to do things, and after thinking about it, he told Li Bing about it.
"The future is really a good project, and I was already excited about it."
"But as soon as I heard that they had already taken the money from the goose factory, I immediately refused sternly, saying that everyone was probably not all the way, and Li Bing had to leave with regrets."
Lin Yi said it sincerely, as if he only hated Jack for not seeing him draw a line with the goose factory on the spot!
In his mind, a mere shared bicycle Jack is so bold, so if he sponsors himself to build a car, he can't pay 1 billion 2 billion?
Maybe it's a matter of acting, Ma Jack just smiled and shook his head: "You are no longer the first person in Factory A to tell me that you want to build a car." ”
Lin Yi was a little regretful, he knew who Jack was talking about, and sure enough, the wind was clear and not so easy to fool.
Unexpectedly, Ma Jack made a turn and actually came back and said: "I know what you mean, take out something, it doesn't hurt for me to vote a little." ”
"The Li Bing you said made an electric supercar for Brother Xiaoma, even if I don't want your supercar, I can't even pay for it without even looking at the PPT, right?"
It's here today!
No wonder the elder is so difficult to serve, and there are countless people scrambling to stick it up, and it's really generous to shoot when he's happy.
Lin Yi didn't care if he deliberately suppressed it first and then raised it just now, in short, he thanked him first.
Later, along the way, Ma Jack took advantage of the strength of the wine to teach Lin Yi the truth of life.
"It's not surprising that you're a young man with radical thinking, it's a good thing to have character, but don't be too arbitrary."
"Today's bureau is actually nothing, I know that you are also from Zhijiang, and I will introduce other people to you another day, all of them are fellow villagers......
It's not that Majack doesn't have friends, it's just that his inner circle does not coincide with the industry.
Although Lin Yi promised on his lips, he was unimpressed in his heart, he could ask for Jack's money, but he didn't plan to get too close to the other party's circle.
He didn't want to hide abroad.
