The world is in trouble

Chapter 59 The Destiny Deepens

“I thought it would be good, but I didn’t expect it to be this good.”

"So you came to me, what do you want me to do?"

Lian Zheng really loves talents. He means that it is a trivial matter for local tyrants to fight over houses.

Since you have come to see me, you can make some higher requests.

For example, those who are close to the water get the moon first, strive for some official business, and contract government-related websites or even corporate-related websites.

The website made by Lin Xiao and Xia Xi is indeed excellent, outstandingly excellent.

So, Lian Zheng is willing to give this opportunity.

Lin Xiao said: "Our company is in the business park you lead, and there is no high-tech industry in that park now, which is completely different from your original intention of building it. You are very sad. We want to become the first technology-related enterprise in the business park."

Lian Zheng was very happy.

Although this company is small, it is indeed a solid technology company.

Lin Xiao continued: "So we would like to invite you to inspect the company and attend our opening ceremony."

Lian Zhengdao: "Just... such a small matter?"

Lin Xiao said: "Yes, it's such a small matter."

Lian Zheng said: "Your appetite is too small. When promoting talents, we should not avoid relatives, and when promoting relatives, we should not avoid suspicion! Your business is so excellent that you can participate in the bidding of many website construction projects. I am willing to help you in this regard."

"Of course, I would also be happy to attend the opening ceremony of your company."

"Even if I go alone, I will also bring my colleagues along."

Lin Xiao said: "Thank you Uncle Lian, my partner Xia Xi wants to talk to you on the phone, is that ok?"

"Of course, I've heard of her for a long time." Lian Zheng said.

A moment later, Lin Xiao's cell phone rang. It was Xia Xi calling.

Lin Xiao handed the phone to Lian Zheng with both hands.

Lian Zheng took the phone and the two of them communicated politely and enthusiastically.

"Secretary Lian, see you tomorrow afternoon."

"See you tomorrow afternoon."

After hanging up the phone, Lian Zheng was still as talkative as ever, which showed that he was really happy.

"Lin Xiao, you should have contacted me a long time ago. The store will open tomorrow afternoon. It's too late to come to me today."

"I won't refuse such a good thing or such a serious matter."

"You surprised me. I was very surprised. I wanted to say that seeing you was like seeing my younger self."

"But I take that back now. You're a much better person than I was back then."

"Besides, there are a few more things I may still want to say to you."

Lin Xiao said: "You say."

Lian Zhengdao: "Starting a business is for a better life, and university is also a very important part of life. Once this part is missing, it is missing forever. Maybe for some geniuses, university is not important, but it is indeed an indispensable part of youth."

"From the perspective of an elder, I sincerely hope that you can strike a good balance between entrepreneurship and academic studies."

"I believe your parents hope so too."

"You are very good. I believe you will go very far, but I hope you won't go too fast and miss the scenery along the way."

Lin Xiao was silent, because Lian Zheng’s words went straight to his heart.

Although we were father-in-law and son-in-law in the previous life,... we didn't communicate much.

Because Lin Xiao had failed for too long at that time, he was only focused on making money and even used all means to do so.

Lian Zheng's cell phone rang again, as if his wife was urging him.

“Hahaha…” Lian Zheng laughed, “Young people don’t like to be lectured by their elders. I understand.”

"Tomorrow I will bring a few colleagues of the same level to inspect your company."

"In addition, I will bring several department heads with me, as well as companies with related needs, and hope to help you reach cooperation."

I didn't expect that this father-in-law was such a person. No wonder he had such a high starting point, but he only got the main position after retirement in his previous life.

When they were about to say goodbye, Lian Zheng patted Lin Xiao on the shoulder and said, "I took a lot of detours in the past, both in my career and in my relationships. I hope you can have a smoother journey than I did."

Suddenly, Lin Xiao felt an impulse in his heart.

A choice.

It is to borrow strength temporarily.

A long-lasting relationship.

Many times, there is only one opportunity, and if you miss it, it’s missed.

Is it really possible to exchange sincerity for sincerity?

Even though my mind kept warning me not to tell the truth.

But another force told Lin Xiao.

speak out!
It’s not your fault that the failures in your previous life made you so utilitarian.

But this kind of utilitarianism is destined to make you lose a lot.

Can you afford to fail in this lobbying?
Yes, affordable.

At worst, we can just give up Building B13.

At worst, I can just admit defeat to Wu Yuan.

Perhaps having a sincere heart-to-heart talk with Lian Zheng is more important.

So, Lin Xiao said slowly: "I'm sorry Uncle Lian, I didn't tell you all the truth."

Lian Zheng was shocked and asked, "What do you mean?
…………

More than half an hour later.

Lian Zheng looked at Lin Xiao in shock.

"In other words, you are selling dog meat under the guise of selling mutton?"

Lin Xiao said: "Yes."

"Xia Xi paid the most money, but she is the second largest shareholder. Are you the largest shareholder?"

Lin Xiao said: "Yes."

After a long while, Lian Zheng said, "Why? You have done a great job with the Southeast Information Port."

Lin Xiao said: "Uncle Lian, there is no future for local portals, not even for large portals."

"The future of the Internet must be vertical and specialized."

"Of course, there will be some profit in undertaking the website production and hosting and operation of local government departments, but it is not something that someone of my status can do, even with your support."

"Moreover, this business has no story, will never grow, and has no future."

Lian Zheng said: "And the live broadcast software you mentioned has a future?" Lin Xiao said: "Yes, it is a brand new business model, an unprecedented business model on the Internet."

Lian Zhengdao: "You want to develop a completely new business model with less than one million?"

Lin Xiao said: "Yes."

Lian Zhengdao said: "This is all just your conjecture. It has never been verified."

Lin Xiao said: "That's right."

Lian Zhengdao: "Have you ever thought that the reason why this business model has not appeared is because the time is not right? Looking too far ahead may not be a good thing."

Lin Xiao said: "So, I want to verify it."

Lian Zhengdao: "Then you took Xia Xi and nine other girls to make a big bet?"

Lin Xiao said: "That's right."

These young people are crazy.

Lian Zheng added: "If I'm not mistaken, your business model has a certain gray nature."

Lin Xiao said: "Yes."

Lian Zhengdao: "You obviously don't have to tell me the truth. You have already achieved your goal, why do you have to tell the truth?"

Lin Xiao was silent for a while and said, "I...I can't help it."

"Faced with you like this, my emotions overcame my reason."

“My elders are relying on me, so in a way, my spirit is not supported by them.”

"Just now, you treated yourself as my elder. So I can't lie to my elders on important matters!"

Lian Zheng stared at Lin Xiaohao for a while with a complicated look.

"Jingle Bell……"

Lian Zheng's cell phone rang again. It was a text message from his wife.

Lian Zhengdao: "I'll send a car to take you back."

Lin Xiao said: "No need, I will take the train back by myself."

"No." Lian Zheng said: "You can come here by train during the day, but I will be responsible for your safety at night."

"Okay, thank you Uncle Lian."

Lian Zheng said: "I will reply to you before 7 o'clock tomorrow morning."

………………

When Lian Zheng returned home in the evening, his wife was working on a paper at her desk.

Suddenly, Shu Wan asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Even with her back to her husband, she could sense his deep concentration.

Lian Zheng suddenly asked: "Wan'er, if it happened again, would you still choose me?"

Shu Wan turned around and asked, "You, you did something to offend me outside?"

Lian Zheng was surprised and asked, "Why do you think in that direction?"

Shu Wan said: "You are in a high position, and you look like this, how many women are throwing themselves at you, do you think I don't know?"

My husband is so handsome and outstanding. Being a woman makes me both happy and distressed.

Lian Zheng said: "Just talking nonsense."

"I mean seriously, if you knew what was going to happen, would you still choose me?"

"Because you always told Lian Yi to choose a boy from a big city with good conditions, because he has a high starting point, a broad vision, and a broad mind, and will not confine himself to a small area."

“And I was that sentimental, self-deprecating teenager from a poor rural family.”

Shu Wan said: "I get angry when I think of that time. I was blind. I didn't like so many girls with good conditions, but I liked you, a poor boy from the countryside."

"I am the daughter of the county magistrate and I am pretty, but I am still pursuing you. You seem to have suffered a great injustice."

"You've been at odds with me for so many years. You broke up with me first, then quit your job and went to XZ to teach. You wanted to live in poverty in the frontier for the rest of your life to punish yourself. I've come thousands of miles to chase you back."

"You really tortured me to death during those years."

Lian Zheng was so ashamed that he begged for mercy: "Stop talking, stop talking."

Then he sighed and said, "Speaking of which, my father-in-law was really my mentor in life. Although he was not well educated and came from a worker-peasant cadre family, he taught me to be open-minded."

Shu Wan said: "So Lian Yi must not follow my old path and must not date a rural boy."

Lian Zhengdao: "You haven't answered my question yet."

Shu Wan returned to her desk and began to write her paper. She said calmly, "Yes, I was so fascinated by your desperate look that I even wrote sour articles to deceive women."

Do middle-aged people say the most explicit love words in the most ordinary tone?

"What happened?" Shu Wan asked.

Lian Zhengdao: "I met a young man who asked me for a favor. He is very talented, but his methods are also wild and a little dangerous."

Shu Wan asked: "Will it affect you? Will it bring you hidden dangers?"

Lian Zhengdao: "That's totally out of reach, it's too far away"

Shu Wan: "Is it possible for him to become a talent in the future? Can he repay us in the future?"

Lian Zheng said: "How could I think so far? I just cherish talents."

Shu Wan asked: "Then what are you worried about?"

Lian Zhengdao: "Once you agree to help, it is fate. Once fate arises, there will be entanglement and bondage."

Once he helps, that brat might become his son-in-law.

Shu Wan said: "Then just refuse. Anyway... you should have learned how to refuse, right?"

After saying this, she looked at her handsome husband with lingering interest.

Lian Zheng was helpless: "You're talking nonsense again."

Then he noticed that there seemed to be a single white hair among his wife's thick black hair, so he reached out and gently pulled it out.

After the extraction, I looked at my wife's face. Although she was in her early forties, she was still very pretty.

He couldn't help but gently stroke her forehead.

Shu Wan sighed and said, "That's all for today's paper."

Then, he took Lian Zheng's hand and walked into the room.

Lian Zheng quickly said, "I, that's not what I meant."

Shu Wan said seriously: "This is what I mean."
