Chapter 1884 Rich Girls Are Interested in Me

"Ah?" This "ah" came from the two girls in unison. They both thought that since they had already eaten the barbecue, the matter should be easy to discuss. Unexpectedly, Zhou Zhi suddenly brought up the issue of compensation.

"Are you surprised?" Zhou Zhi put another mouthful of grilled small intestine into his mouth, and said with oil dripping from his mouth, "I am doing this for Mr. Mai's sake. Considering that you are the granddaughter of a veteran who has made great contributions to our Clover Group, I decided to limit the scope of things. You have to understand one thing first. Even if the Computer Department of Shu University finally gives you the login authorization of the National Key Laboratory, it only has limited access rights within our group. What's more, you are still in the application process, and the process has not yet reached our group. It is obvious that you acted first and asked for permission later."

"Because of your disruption, our group has wasted a lot of manpower and material resources from top to bottom. Even I had to rush back from another place overnight. How do we calculate these costs?" Zhou Zhi finally stretched out his greasy fingers and tapped on the coffee table twice: "Not handing you over to the court is our greatest tolerance."

"You're lying! You're not busy at all!" Mai Xiaomiao protested: "Most of the things you were busy with in Lianhe Township had nothing to do with Clover! Besides, I didn't cause any trouble!"

"Hey? You haven't made trouble yet?" Zhou Zhi squinted at him. "I posted a few comments in the novel to explain the allusions. Who was it that made people guess in a sarcastic way whether it was the author's fake account? Isn't this called making trouble?"

"I, I can't call that a nuisance, I can only... I can only call it a reasonable guess!" Mai Xiaomiao argued fiercely: "Besides, you have more than one smurf account, so if you show up, you don't have to worry about people guessing!"

"I have another trumpet?" Zhou Zhi frowned: "You must have made a mistake, right?"

"Although you have a lot of overseas business, they are all handled by AXA Fund Management. Just look at the financial report every Monday morning!" Mai Xiaomiao felt that Zhou Zhi deliberately exaggerated his importance in the group, which was purely shameless: "Don't think I don't know the name you use overseas, George Darwin!"

"I..." Zhou Zhi was really shocked. Until now, all the international financial circle and IT industry knew was that George Darwin was the owner of AXA Fund, that's all.

Because of its accurate predictions of the world economic trends several times, AXA Fund made a lot of money through high leverage. Its actual operator, Li Laosan, became the little prince of Hong Kong Island's finance. His reputation once surpassed that of his father who was engaged in traditional business, real estate, and finance, and his second brother who was engaged in communications.

In recent years, people have found that AXA Fund's investments have become increasingly stable, mainly involved in information industry venture capital and IP acquisition and integration.

There is also stock market investment, but it is mainly related to the information industry.

AXA has been lurking in many stocks for many years, and its shareholding amount is even large enough to make some companies accept its merger suggestions.

For example, AXA’s most successful venture capital firm in China, Clover Group, has collaborated with major companies such as Microsoft and IBM, and it is hard to say that AXA is not behind the scenes.

The same is true for the major chip base in Shanghai.

With the high returns brought by these precise investments, AXA has now grown to a considerable scale.

However, it is difficult for anyone to connect the mysterious George Darwin and Zhou Zhi. Even in the information of international intelligence brokers, the relationship between Zhou Zhi and George Darwin is that AXA Fund is George Darwin's private fund, which is represented by Li Laosan and invested in Clover Company in China. This company made its first pot of gold from font mining, and then grew and developed through cooperation with international giants. Finally, it transformed several intellectual property rights acquired from AXA Fund into a series of software and hardware products, and finally expanded into today's information industry group.

The legal person of this group is Zhou Zhi, who is like a pig blown by the wind.

After all, the two styles are too different. AXA has left a deep impression on people since its birth, with its aggressive financial investment and the most risky emerging technology investment, which makes it impossible to associate it with Clover Group, which has been seizing the opportunity and developing steadily under Zhou Zhi's leadership. Although Zhou Zhi did not deliberately conceal this, only a very small number of business and technical partners at the time knew about it. These partners are now powerful bosses who pay special attention to protecting customer privacy.

Therefore, in international business intelligence, George Darwin became Zhouzhi's angel investor, and Zhouzhi made a lot of money for George Darwin. George Darwin took the money and entrusted AXA to continue investing...but no one realized that Zhou Zhi was actually working for himself.

"How did you know?" Zhou Zhi was indeed a little surprised.

"The relationship between AXA Fund and Clover Group is very deep. Every step taken by Clover Group is related to AXA's investment or technology transfer," said Mai Xiaomiao.

"If these are just AXA's angel investments, technology transfers and business incubation, that makes sense, right?"

"What's inexplicable is that George Darwin repeatedly purchased important cultural relics in the international auction market, and these cultural relics are always related to you. You can be found in many news photos of cultural relic donations or appraisals."

"You are an information technology expert, or you can even be called a mathematician, how come you are interested in cultural relics?" Zhou Zhi asked in surprise.

"Humph! Grandpa praised you to the skies, saying you were a genius who was good at both arts and sciences, so I checked it out." Mai Xiaomiao said angrily, "I admit that you are good at arts, but as for science... engineering management is OK."

"Just because of this, you want to find out everything about me? You even go so far as to become a hacker?" Zhou Zhi suddenly asked.

“Uh…” Mai Xiaomiao’s eyes rolled around, and she wasn’t sure whether to say yes or no.

If I say no, then the big guy in front of me will misunderstand that I have other intentions. But if I say yes, wouldn’t it be the same as personally admitting that I am interested in this big guy?

The hand holding the barbecue skewer stopped in the air and my ears began to feel hot.

Feng Xueshan understood a little bit. It was obvious that Mai Xiaomiao was extremely strong in technology, which made Zhou Zhi want to poach her. But in terms of emotional intelligence, she was still an naive girl who had always grown up in an ivory tower.

But it seems that this girl is really interested in Elbow and has found out so much about his situation.

"After all this fuss, you are not an outsider." Seeing the girl gradually getting into trouble, Feng Xueshan coughed lightly: "Mr. Mai comes to our group's gym every week to exercise. If he knew that you jumped from the second floor of Suihuaxuan because of us, I really don't know how to explain it..."

Although her words were serious, her interruption seemed to have saved Mai Xiaomiao's life: "I did all this behind Grandpa's back. Let's just not let him know!"

After saying that, he looked at Zhou Zhi pitifully and said, "If you really want to compensate... me, I can compensate you, but I don't have much money, so I can't compensate you much..."

"You can live in Suihuaxuan for a low price?" Zhou Zhi didn't believe it. "Foreign guests register with their passports and it costs 500 dollars a night. I don't believe you have a Chinese ID card, and I don't see you care about the room fee!"
