“Hah, country bumpkin, a millionaire is nothing. You can find them everywhere on the street now. Only those with tens of millions are considered rich. Do you think this is your hometown’s backwater village?”
“Isn’t your hometown a big city?”
“So what if it’s not?”
“You’re looking for trouble, right?”
“So what if I am!”
“Believe me, I’ll call my boyfriend to beat you up.”
“Go ahead, let’s see who beats whom.”
“You…”
The facts proved that hot-tempered girls are everywhere.
“Liu Ming entered the private room. After three rounds of drinks and five flavors of dishes, Hao Yunyang wiped his mouth with a wet towel and said to Liu Ming: “Chenxin will go back to the company to work tomorrow.”
“Uh…” Liu Ming, who was holding the so-called golden bowl solving the bird’s nest, looked up and said: “Go back? Just go back.”
“I mean, Chenxin will go back to the company for two more months and then stop. So you should confirm the financial manager candidate first.” Dou Yunyang thought for a moment and said: “Let her go back and do accounting. Learn more, and you handle the rest.”
“Okay,” Liu Ming agreed with a smile, and asked Zhao Chenxin: “Are you still mad about last time?”
“No,” Zhao Chenxin shook her head gently, “You were right, I accept it.”
“Hehe, right or wrong, that attitude was wrong.” Hao Yunyang teased: “Hurry up and finish the wine in front of you. Arguing with a delicate woman, aren’t you embarrassed?”
“Bosses who don’t drink when teased aren’t good bosses,” Liu Ming raised his glass to Hao Yunyang with a smile: “If you’re drinking, drink with me.”
“Afraid of you, let’s go.” Hao Yunyang filled the glasses.
The drinking atmosphere became more intense, and even Zhou Junqiang, who was drinking yogurt, was pulled down by these two bosses who didn’t look like bosses and general managers who didn’t look like general managers, making Zhao Chenxin and Chen Pingping laugh and cry.
The heated atmosphere continued for a full hour before Hao Yunyang finally revealed the main purpose of this gathering: “Tomorrow, Shiyu and I will head to Kunming, Yunnan. There are some things we need to handle. The matters here will be left to you, especially Liu Ming, got it?”
“Mm,” everyone nodded.
Hao Yunyang then turned to Kong Lingqiu: “Lingqiu, you should pay more attention. By the way, did you find the manager that Yinzi’s husband was helping you look for?”
“I found someone, but they came, took a look, and said they needed to consider it further,” Kong Lingqiu smiled bitterly, “They were probably scared off by the company’s rudimentary state… A manager is crucial to a company, especially for people like us who aren’t good at management. Having a few managers to help manage would make things easier. As Director Hao said, your company has just opened. Once your first software becomes famous and gains a user base, it’ll grow like a snowball, bitter first, then sweet.”
“Mm!” Kong Lingqiu nodded deeply in agreement.
The dinner lasted until after ten, and Hao Yunyang was still clear-headed when leaving the hotel, but became somewhat dizzy once home. Fortunately, he didn’t forget his promise to Liu Xueling and forced himself to take a shower to dispel some of the drunkenness.
“We’ll sleep on the living room sofa tonight, and leave at eight tomorrow morning.” Dou Yunyang grabbed a white duck down blanket from the cabinet, arranged for Wang Shiyu to sleep on the sofa, turned on the air conditioning, and then went to his own room.
One hundred and three million seven hundred thousand Hao Yunyang repeated Liu Xueying’s answer, and then continued to ask: “Cash on hand?”
“Seven million six hundred and ninety thousand”
“Seven million six hundred and ninety thousand”
In the subsequent questions and answers, whenever Liu Xueying answered a sentence, Hao Yunyang would always repeat it.
After one question and one answer, the time had reached two in the morning. The entire three pages of forty multiple-choice questions and sixty short-answer questions were finally completed. Hao Yunyang then stopped his actions and said to Liu Xueying on the phone: “Director Liu, you have it, right?”
“Yes”
“Add my number: Pi Zhang Li. I’ll send you the results in a document in half an hour”
“Okay, can you repeat the number again?”
“Wan 34”
In less than three seconds, a small speaker flashed in the bottom right corner of Hao Yunyang’s computer, and after adding Liu Xueying, Hao Yunyang immediately hung up the phone and reached for the mouse, clicking the crisis management button, and the software entered crisis management mode.
“Let Uncle and the others come over,” Liu Xueying turned to Liu Guohua and said: “They’ve probably been waiting all night.”
“Mm,” Liu Guohua nodded, a curve forming at the corner of his mouth: “Whether human or ghost, it’s finally time to see the truth. I want to see what solution this mysterious person will come up with!”
By now, in Liu Guohua and Liu Xueying’s minds, Hao Yunyang had completely become a minor character. In their view, a blurry figure had appeared behind Hao Yunyang, and they were confident.
This was exactly the result Hao Yunyang wanted. Liu Guohua and Liu Xueying had completely fallen into the mud pit that Hao Yunyang had long prepared.
While Liu Xueying was urgently contacting her family elders to discuss matters, Hao Yunyang’s crisis management experts were in full operation.
A full five minutes later, a solution with clear thinking, accurate goals, and high feasibility was freshly produced on Hao Yunyang’s computer. He copied and pasted this solution into a document and sent it directly to Liu Xueying.
This solution was a bait. A bait to continue drawing Liu Guohua, Liu Xueying, and even the entire Liu family into the mud pit, or perhaps into paradise. From this moment, Hao Yunyang had finally taken the key step to transform the fictional Jiuxiao into a real Jiuxiao. Next, it would depend on how the Liu family would view this matter.
“Done, time to sleep.” After sending the document, closing the crisis management expert, Hao Yunyang yawned and turned towards his bed. He was truly exhausted.
“Why?” Clearly, Third Uncle was quite dissatisfied with Liu Guohua’s inability to assess, believing that in Liu’s territory, there could not be someone beyond their evaluation.
“His company originally had only a dozen employees,” Liu Guohua took a light breath, “But recently, they suddenly expanded their staff, and currently have around sixty employees. According to my investigation, this Hao Yunyang has quite a reputation online, being respected by network design professionals as the first person in network graphic design. Currently, his company’s elite graphic designers occupy 80% of total staff. Based on this calculation, his personal assets should be over 20 million, but without concrete evidence, conservatively estimated at 10 million.”
“A top graphic design professional working in the catering industry for two years?” Fourth Uncle immediately pointed out the strangeness, his brows furrowing: “This seems unreasonable.”
“Investigation shows that Hao Yunyang only began to stand out online after leaving Jinhui. According to online sources, he once had a contract dispute with a website called ‘Mission China’, receiving substantial compensation, though the exact amount was not disclosed,” Liu Guohua’s brow also furrowed: “But looking at Hao Yunyang’s performance at Jinhui, he was clearly someone unrelated to computers. Working for years without a computer, rarely visiting internet cafes, low-key and deeply hidden.”
“Extremely strange,” Third Uncle and Fourth Uncle exchanged glances, both seeing surprise in each other’s eyes. Third Uncle nodded slightly and raised his hand: “Let’s look at this solution first.”
“Mm,” Liu Guohua and the others nodded, beginning to examine the solution in their hands.
