Wandering the world of film and television begins with the golden years

Xiong Xiaoge acknowledged his business acumen and abilities, but continued, "But I don't know if I'm getting older, I find myself increasingly unable to understand young people. 🎈🐧 ☺💛"

Xu Xin took a sip of coffee and said, half surprised and half joking, "This isn't the crazy bear I know. Your investment style has always been fast, ruthless, and crazy."

"Now you're even more fussy than me, a woman."

At this moment, Xiong Xiaoge was too preoccupied to care about being ridiculed by Xu Xin.

He also knows that young entrepreneurs will be the norm in the future.

This wave of youthful entrepreneurship will inevitably give rise to the next generation of giants.

But he still found it hard to convince himself to make a significant investment in the fiercely competitive group-buying industry. This internal conflict between rejection and a desire to seize the opportunity constantly tore at his heart.

He was in a state of great inner turmoil at that moment.

Seeing this, Xu Xin couldn't help but add fuel to the fire, saying, "There are two types of games in the world. Finite games are played within boundaries, with a clear beginning and end, and the goal is to win."

"The infinite game is about the boundaries themselves. There is no clear beginning or end, and no winner. The purpose of the game is to bring more people into the game and make the game go on forever."

"Admittedly, Haotuan's existing first-mover advantage can theoretically be replicated or even surpassed."

"But when competition is homogeneous, latecomers need to spend several times more money to catch up or surpass them. 👌👽 ➅❾รⒽย𝓍.𝓒ㄖⓜ 🐊☞ Of course, it's not just a matter of money."

Xu Xin was Li Haoyu's earliest angel investor and has witnessed the development of Haotuan all the way.

"Investing is about investing in people. Great people are great at thinking first. That's why I have such high hopes for him."

Xu Xin has seen too many people with impressive resumes who have failed miserably.

He continued to persuade, "HaoTuan's core advantage lies in its founder and his team. The giants are all richer than HaoTuan, but the ones spending the money are not the founders of those giants."

"Perhaps the founder of a giant company is better than him. But the person in charge of actually running the project is definitely not better than him."

"Professional managers' teams are good at maintaining the status quo but lack innovation. How can they compare to a startup team that has fought its way up from the bottom? Who has more fighting spirit, who has more perseverance, and who has better teamwork?"

"Isn't it self-evident?"

Xiong Xiaoge nodded. "That's true. It's true that heroes can emerge from humble backgrounds. A good group like this has achieved its current status; the situation is extremely favorable..."

"If it were a professional management team, they might have faded into obscurity long ago."

Xu Xin laughed and said, "Even if the big players get involved, I think the odds are 70/30. The funding issue isn't something we investors are responsible for."

"Strategically, I believe Haotuan is second to none, so wouldn't investing in Haotuan.com be more than just a try?"

Xiong Xiaoge nodded thoughtfully: "Then we really should meet. Could you arrange a meeting for me with him so we can have a proper talk? When would be a convenient time for us to meet?"

Xu Xin frowned. "Recently, HaoTuan has been making a lot of big moves, and we can't even find this investor anymore. 🌷🐙 ♪♟ That cunning kid, maybe he's hiding in some corner plotting against his competitors?"

Xiong Xiaoge disagreed, saying, "It's normal that we can't contact him right now. It's the height of the group-buying war, so he's probably too busy to get away."

In fact, not only Xu Xin, but even Guan Weiguang didn't know where Li Haoyu was.

.........

At this moment, Li Haoyu had already boarded a plane bound for Xishan Province.

The reason for all of this stemmed from an unexpected delivery.

After finishing his work with the group, Li Haoyu returned home, completely exhausted, and immediately went to sleep.

Li Haoyu's phone suddenly rang at that moment.

He looked and realized that it was Yuan Yuan who had sent the video call invitation.

He then realized that he had been neglecting Yuan Yuan recently because of Haotuan's financing and expansion.

Yuan Yuan rarely complained, "I don't know which man said he would video chat at least once a day, but it seems he's completely forgotten about it now."

Li Haoyu couldn't help but chuckle awkwardly.

He was used to being glib, but under Yuan Yuan's honest criticism, he actually felt a little guilty.

Li Haoyu said in a serious tone, "Although I've been getting up earlier than the chickens and going to bed later than the dogs lately, if I didn't do it, I didn't do it, and there are no excuses."

"I will definitely turn over a new leaf, repent and reform, and start anew, striving to restore the great image you have of me as soon as possible."

Yuan Yuan said helplessly, "You're always like this. I don't know whether I should believe what you say or not."

Li Haoyu is no longer a novice in relationships. After being tempered by Yuan Yuan and Jiang Nansun, his skin is now as thick as the Great Wall. How could he easily break down because of his girlfriend's teasing?

Yuan Yuan continued, "Okay, I have something important to tell you. Did you receive the package I sent you?"

Li Haoyu scratched his head and asked in confusion, "Did you send me a package? When did that happen? How come I didn't know?"

Li Haoyu rummaged through the packages by the door, and it took him a while to find it: "What package is this? It's quite heavy."

Yuan Yuan said, "I'll check the delivery details after we video chat. You should spend more time chatting with me and focus! Otherwise, I won't let you off the hook."

Li Haoyu exclaimed in surprise and joked, "Wow, a mystery gift! Okay, I'll open the box properly in a bit."

Li Haoyu and Yuan Yuan stared at each other in silence, yet both felt a long-lost flutter in their hearts.

Yuan Yuan said softly, "Sometimes when you're not talking, you're actually quite handsome."

Li Haoyu said with a wicked smile, "I'm quite the opposite. I especially like the way you talk, especially at that time. It's like listening to celestial music and my ears are instantly clear."

Yuan Yuan blushed, then said, "I got a perfect score on my Business English test again last weekend, so my English level is now just as good as yours. But I miss you a little..."

"But don't be narcissistic, just a little bit!"

Li Haoyu said, "I miss you too. Don't worry, I'm almost done with the group's business. When I have some free time, I'll take a flight to see you. With transportation so convenient these days, I can get back to Xishan Province in just two hours."

Li Haoyu suddenly remembered Yuan Yuan's graceful figure, and having been abstaining from sex for a long time, he was already itching to act.

He couldn't help but chuckle mischievously as he got excited.

Yuan Yuan rolled her eyes at him. "I have exams coming up soon and I need to study. Don't scare me away and disrupt my study schedule. Do you have too much money to burn?"

"Why take a plane when the bullet train is so convenient? I'll take the bullet train to see you after my exams."

Li Haoyu nodded. "I'll arrange this. By the way, have you made any new friends recently?"

Yuan Yuan said, "I often eat with my classmates as you suggested, and now I have several good friends who study together."

Li Haoyu said to her, "Don't let yourself be wronged and hide in a corner crying by yourself. Good friends are those who stand together through thick and thin when things go wrong."

Yuan Yuan said, "Don't worry, everyone is very good to me. But if something happens, friends will stand together, then what's the point of having you as a boyfriend?"

Li Haoyu laughed and said, "Of course, a boyfriend is here to carry you!"
