Looking back on 2009

Chapter 232 Investing in People
The time at the end of the semester was a bit uneventful.

Except for those who are fearless and have no pursuit of grades, most people are devoted to intense review and preparation.

Chen Zhihe was neither the former nor the latter.

He doesn't pay much attention to his grades now, as long as his grades are not too outrageous, based on his freshman and sophomore grades, he will be able to graduate without any problem.

He just learns habitually, and occasionally thinks about how to go in the future, such as the next development of Baike Company, investment in Liu Chengan, etc.

Such days passed so quickly that no one even mentioned Christmas anymore.

In a flash, 2011 was over, and 2012 came quietly.

If she hadn't mentioned it when she was on the phone with Ruan Mi, Chen Zhihe would have almost forgotten that it's 2012 now.

After finishing the last course, Chen Zhihe's junior year is over.

Because he promised Liu Cheng'an to get together in Jiangcheng, and the company was still on vacation early, Chen Zhihe didn't have the same winter vacation as everyone else in the first place.

After everyone in the dormitory went home, Chen Zhihe moved back to the Normal University.

The weather in Jiangcheng was really too cold. Except for Lei Jun's repeated urging, Chen Zhihe went to the company's new office a few times, and almost stayed at home the rest of the time.

Fortunately, Liu Chengan's vacation was earlier, so Chen Zhihe didn't have to wait too long. Within a week of Chen Zhihe's vacation, Liu Chengan's call came.

"Did you go home after the holiday?" Liu Chengan called Chen Zhihe as soon as he got off the train.

Chen Zhihe was thinking about how to use the remaining 600 million yuan in his study, when he saw Liu Chengan's phone call, he thought that Cao Cao would be there soon.

"Here, isn't this waiting for you?" Chen Zhihe smiled.

"Where do you live? Are you looking for me or am I looking for you?" Liu Chengan asked.

Chen Zhihe thought for a while, and said, "Let me find you, your house hasn't changed location, has it?"

Liu Chengan said: "Hehe, the price has risen so fast, where to move, it's still the same place."

Chen Zhihe smiled and said, "Don't worry, just move in the future. Tell me a time, and I'll find you."

Liu Chengan laughed, and said: "Then I am so honored, to let a billionaire condescend to come to me."

Hearing this, Chen Zhihe was not surprised. He guessed that Liu Chengan had been paying attention to the company's financing situation, so it was not unusual to know that it was 1000.

They made an appointment to meet at noon the next day. After Chen Zhihe put down the phone, he looked forward to meeting Liu Chengan, but he didn't know how their things were doing.

It was only the beginning of 2012. Chen Zhihe searched the Internet and found that Byte had not been established yet, but relying on his previous memory, he knew that he didn't have much time left for him.

What Chen Zhihe didn't know was that if history hadn't changed, Byte would be established in March.

The only thing Chen Zhihe knew was that Zhang Yiming’s entrepreneurial journey was very bumpy. In the first few years before the launch of Toutiao.com, although it developed rapidly, there were constant troubles and copyright lawsuits occurred from time to time.

In those years when he was a lawyer in Shanghai, Chen Zhihe also heard the story that Byte often failed to raise funds at the beginning.

Now that he has the starting advantage and the ability to be a prophet, he might be able to touch the opponent.

However, Chen Zhihe hadn't decided whether to do it alone, or to cooperate with both parties when the time came. He thought he had to see how well Liu Chengan's products were doing and whether they had the kind of competitiveness he imagined.

The next day, the weather was rare and clear, and the sky was blue.

Near noon, when the weather was warmest, Chen Zhihe went out.

After driving to the downstairs of Liu Chengan's house, Chen Zhihe called him.

After a while, Liu Chengan went downstairs.

Looking around, Liu Chengan didn't see Chen Zhihe's person. Just as he was wondering, he heard the sound of a horn, which was from a car not far away.

The weather was too cold, Chen Zhihe really didn't want to get out of the car, the location couldn't even get out of the sun, and going out would be suffering.

Rolling down the car window, Chen Zhihe called out, "Here."

Liu Chengan froze for a moment, then trotted over with a smile.

Not politely, he opened the passenger door, and Liu Chengan got into the passenger seat directly.

While wearing his seat belt, while looking at Chen Zhihe, Liu Chengan joked, "Successful people are different."

Chen Zhihe smiled and said, "A car worth 10,000+, you call it a successful person?"

Liu Cheng'an shook his head and said, "Bill cover is riding a bicycle, and no one thinks he is not a successful person."

Chen Zhihe shook his head, hehe laughed and said, "You think highly of me."

Liu Cheng'an said seriously: "From the very beginning, I thought you were extraordinary."

Chen Zhihe joked, "What's unusual?"

Liu Chengan recalled it for a while, and said, "It's hard to say, anyway, the few things you do, ordinary people can't do."

This incident has become a classic material for Liu Chengan to tell stories to others. Every time he tells others, everyone doesn't believe him, thinking that he is being modest.

Liu Chengan didn't bother to explain. If he hadn't experienced it himself, he wouldn't believe it himself. He just graduated from high school. Who would dare to believe it.

And recently, he brought out the story of Chen Zhiyu's success in financing. At first, everyone didn't believe it, but they didn't believe it until he showed the news to others.

Only when they learned that the protagonists of the two incidents were the same person, did the others know that Liu Chengan hadn't fooled them.The Jiang student he was talking about was indeed extraordinary.

For Chen Zhihe, even the Yan University student who has his eyes above his head, has to say admiration.

Therefore, when Liu Chengan told several members of the team that Chen Zhihe was interested in their project, the other members of the team were more happy.

It is one thing to be able to attract investment, and it is what they care about to be recognized by such people.

Just when Liu Chengan was distracted, Chen Zhihe smiled and said: "Leave the sycophant in advance, let's see your results later, if I don't like it, wouldn't it be embarrassing?"

After hearing this, Liu Chengan came back to his senses, and said with a smile, "I'm not exaggerating at all. Besides, it doesn't matter whether you like it or not. Apart from looking for investment from you this time, there are more I want to ask you to learn from the scriptures and help us sort out our thoughts."

Chen Zhihe narrowed his eyes and glanced at Liu Chengan, jokingly said, "The students of Yanda University are just different, they all speak better than ordinary people."

Liu Chengan shook his head and said, "It has nothing to do with whether I am from Yanda or not. As long as you succeed, you will be surrounded by people who speak well."

Chen Zhihe was stunned for a moment, this Yan University has a level, among other things, in Liu Chengan, the growth visible to the naked eye is the proof.

With a chuckle, Chen Zhihe said, "This is level."

Driving the car, he became more and more interested in Liu Chengan's project.

It is said that investing is actually investing in people. Chen Zhihe did not see a trace of rigidity and dullness in Liu Chengan, but instead saw maturity and flexibility.

Now, rather than saying that he is interested in the project, it is better to say that he is interested in Liu Chengan.

Even if the project is unsuccessful, Liu Chengan is worth investing in.
