Reborn in America, I'm serious about making money.

The next morning, Zhang San looked at the little girl who had brought him the storm and felt that this world was too surreal. He never expected that he would be interviewed just by passing by.

Thankfully, the poor guy jumped and didn't hit me, otherwise I would definitely have sued him for murder.

He thought he was comforting the girl, but it turned into a sexual encounter; then it even turned into torture. M&L, a joyful thing, should be consensual, but it turned into coercion. What made him even more unhappy was that he had become the passive party. This must never be known to anyone.

"OUCH~"

A cry of pain pulled Zhang San back to reality from his self-doubt; Amy beside him had already woken up. She opened her eyes and was able to calmly accept reality, but tears streamed down her face as she wept silently, whether from missing the innocence she had lost or something else entirely.

"Amy, what happened? Tell me, it will make you feel better."

Zhang San didn't hate the girl who had forced herself on him; he simply comforted her gently. Perhaps it was Zhang San's soft words, or something else, that touched her heart. She actually moved closer to Zhang San, resting her head on his arm and snuggling into his embrace.

"My family went bankrupt. They invested in the internet, and they lost everything. I have nothing left, sob sob..."

Her voice was choked with sobs, and at the end, she actually started crying again.

"How much do they owe?"

"I have no idea."

"Okay, stop crying. As for money, I think it's a small matter."

Zhang San's words did indeed comfort her. She had attended a prestigious school since childhood and studied media, so she had never experienced such ups and downs.

Compared to the education of ordinary people, her family naturally wouldn't allow their daughter to have promiscuous behavior outside the home; if she did, she would be known as a slut or promiscuous woman in high society, making it impossible for her to marry into a family of equal social standing in the future.

As for ordinary people, the various promiscuity, early romances, pre-college pregnancies, openness, and unleashing of natural instincts that children experience at school are simply unimaginable in high society.

As for holistic education or happy education, that's a joke; the elite education in Europe and America is beyond the imagination of ordinary people, and it's no less than the "tiger parenting" in mainland China.

Their parents went to prestigious schools, so they will go to prestigious schools too.

Amy's phone rang again. She picked it up somewhat numbly, and there were already many missed calls. She quickly answered it and then heard a shout from the other end, which even Zhang San could hear.

"FIRE, you're fired, Amy."

The call was quickly cut off. Compared to interns being fired, this was commonplace. I wonder if it had anything to do with Amy's parents' bankruptcy.

"Oh, though I hate to say it, you got fired?"

"Waaah..."

Judging from her reaction, it's clear that she was fired; it's probably true.

"Okay, let's have some food, then we'll go to your house and see if that solves the problem."

Amy got up and realized that she wasn't wearing anything, which made her a little shy.

"Go wash up, I've already prepared your clothes."

Zhang San picked up the phone and dialed a number. He asked the front desk to send some food over. He hadn't had a proper rest all day yesterday and had exhausted himself. He needed to replenish his energy, otherwise he would feel very tired.

Although he takes very good care of himself, he can't withstand this.

Amy came out of the bathroom and saw that the dining table was already full of food, which made her happy. Most of the food was what she liked to eat, but some of it was food she couldn't get.

Even though her family was wealthy, such food was a rare treat. Neither of them spoke, silently battling the temptation of the food, and fell into a temporary silence.

Suddenly, Amy's intelligence kicked in. The man in front of her had said in an interview yesterday that he didn't have any money either. How could he help her? Then she secretly began to observe the hotel.

This is a suite, and it looks very high-end; there are some things that only she knows, things that she has seen before, and if you don't have that kind of experience, you wouldn't recognize them.

This guy has no money, how can he live in a place like this?

"I'm stuffed."

Amy didn't know what to say, she just said she was full; Zhang San had also eaten enough, but he wanted to rest for a while to replenish his energy.

"Let's rest a bit more, I'm a little tired," Zhang San said, and Amy agreed.

When a person is full, all the blood flows to the stomach for digestion, and naturally, the person feels sluggish. That's exactly how they felt, and they were really tired yesterday.

"Let's watch TV, hopefully there will be some good news."

The TV was turned on, and it was still showing the bursting of the internet bubble and the stock market crash; many people jumped off buildings, many went bankrupt, and the former middle class were now homeless; and many others were forced to move out of the mansions they used to live in.

Jim, this entrepreneurial elite, actually appeared on TV. He knew Zhang San, who was the one who made him successful, yet he ended up in such a state.

Jim, however, might be different from them. He had squandered his money, but on television, he didn't appear dejected. Instead, he said optimistically, "Although the internet bubble burst, I've already cashed out my stocks. It's just that I enjoyed life too much, which led me to this situation. However, I still have faith in the internet, and if I have the opportunity, I will still start my own business."

Haha... How will he start a business? Isn't it all thanks to my 'help' behind the scenes? He's helped dozens of companies like this one, otherwise how did he get his $200 billion market value?

Then another news item is that a mainland Chinese company from across the ocean will be going public this month. The host introduced, "Under these circumstances, this company from across the ocean has actually bravely decided to go public; there must be something different about it... Let's wait and see..."

Zhang San naturally knew about that company; he had even invested in it, and his shares were very diversified. He planned to sell all his shares and cash out after the company went public.

For no other reason than that, like other mainland internet companies, they haven't found a way to monetize their stock yet. They'll enter the market and buy shares when the stock price drops sharply.

That's how the world works. If you can see the future, you might be one step ahead of others, and then prepare for the second step, the third step... and so on, until the countlessth step.

"I don't know your name yet." Amy thought for a long time, then suddenly realized she didn't know the other person's name and asked somewhat awkwardly.

"Stephen, you can also call me Zhang or Stephen."

"Zhang? Is that your name?"

"No, Zhang is my surname, and Stephen is my given name."

Amy felt like she'd heard the name somewhere before, but decided against it and stopped thinking about it.
