Chapter 223

Su Ran was wearing a pure white down jacket, a red scarf, and white boots today, and she jumped up to Qin Shaoyan.

In the dim evening, against the cold-toned background, the red scarf fluttering on Su Ran's body was like a dancing flame, reflecting into Qin Shaoyan's heart.

"Boss Qin came so slowly." Su Ran said in annoyance, "It took more than 20 minutes to get here."

"It's snowing today, so I walked here." Qin Shaoyan coughed, "The road is not easy to walk, so I came slower."

"You are such a big boss, but you don't have a car?" Su Ran asked in surprise.

"It's the holiday today, so I gave the driver a day off in advance." Qin Shaoyan replied, "After all, they are all workers, and it's not easy for anyone celebrating the holiday."

"That's good. Let's take the subway there to avoid traffic jams." Su Ran took the initiative and hugged Qin Shaoyan's arm.

Qin Shaoyan only felt his arms tightening and being pulled, and waves of faint fragrance hit his face.

"What programs are arranged today?" Qin Shaoyan felt a little awkward, so he had to ask in order to ease the embarrassment.

"It's annoying, eldest sister, you are acting like a hooligan again." Su Ran blushed and was hugged by the other party.

"Chaoyang International Trade."

The two of them followed the crowd and poured into the subway station. At this time, there were not many subway lines in the capital, only Lines 1, 2 and 13, plus the Batong Line.

"A friend I just met." Su Ran was a little embarrassed and said quickly, "Let me introduce to you. This is my friend, Qin Shaoyan."

"You're so naive." Su Ran rolled his eyes, "You are also a boss after all, and you actually proposed to stay up all night in an Internet cafe."

"We booked a private room." Su Ran said immediately, "It should be 301."

honest? !
Su Ran was stunned for a moment and smiled secretly in his heart. Qin Shaoyan was not an honest person.

The waiter checked, "Is it ordered by a lady named Ren?"

Su Ran pointed to the one with braids, "This is Du Xiaoying, this is Dong Yueyue."

"I'm exhausted from working all day. How can I be in the mood to gain weight?" Su Ran complained, and then said, "Sister, you haven't changed either."

"Shao Yan, this is the eldest sister in our dormitory, Liang Yuzhen."

"Oh, our beautiful girl Xiao Ran is here." A woman wearing glasses and a pink sweater sitting at the main seat stood up, happily came over to Su Ran, and gave Su Ran a big hug.

A woman with pigtails next to her interjected: "Eldest sister is living a very comfortable life now, how different is it from us."

As soon as he reached the door, he heard a burst of laughter coming from inside. Su Ran opened the door and walked in. There were three women sitting inside, chatting happily.

The eldest sister Liang Yuzhen joked with a smile, "Your boyfriend looks quite handsome, how can he be so honest."

Qin Shaoyan was a little curious, "Where are we going today?"

"It's already very convenient." Su Ran said nonchalantly, "Before, I had to take several buses."

"Hello." Qin Shaoyan greeted shyly.

"Let's eat first, then find a karaoke bar to sing, and then we'll watch the fireworks at 12 o'clock." Su Ran said with a smile.

Su Ran seemed to be in a happy mood today. Along the way, he chattered and shared trivial matters at work with Qin Shaoyan, and occasionally complained about unreliable leaders, colleagues and strange customers.

The woman wearing glasses glanced at Qin Shaoyan and said jokingly: "You actually brought your family members with you. That's okay. You have a master just after graduation. You moved quickly enough."

Qin Shaoyan nodded in greeting and didn't say any extra words.

"No, you just stand, you don't need to talk." Su Ran quickly warned.

The waiter immediately led Su Ran and Qin Shaoyan to the elevator until they reached the door of the box on the third floor.

As soon as we entered the luxuriously decorated lobby, we were immediately greeted by a waiter, "Hello, do you two have any reservations?"

Qin Shaoyan immediately said modestly, "I am just like my name, I am reticent and not good at words."

"Is it monotonous?" Su Ran asked, "I don't think so. Besides, it's winter and it's night again. Where else can we go to have fun besides singing karaoke?"

"Here, let me feel you and see if you have gained weight."

Fortunately, just going out for fun and taking the subway for an hour or two can be considered a novel experience.

"Good guy." Qin Shaoyan was slightly surprised, "I traveled across most of the capital for the New Year's Eve."

"I think it would be a good choice for us to go to the Internet cafe all night long." Qin Shaoyan suggested, "In the Internet cafe, it is warm and lively, you can eat and drink, and you can also play on the computer, watch movies and play games. It is very convenient."

"What are you holding on for?" Qin Shaoyan was a little stunned.

"Yes." Su Ran nodded.

"You use me as a model." Qin Shaoyan was a little surprised, "You won't let me perform tonight."

"You won't get pregnant if you touch me, so what are you afraid of?" The other party pinched Su Ran with a smile, "I haven't seen you for half a year, you haven't grown any flesh at all."

Qin Shaoyan didn't care even less. He had tried to live a life of a beast for half a year, commuting for more than two hours every day.

Get off the train at Guomao Station and stroll into a hotel next to Guomao Mall.

"The program schedule is quite full." Qin Shaoyan joked, "But this one is a bit monotonous?"

"The people I'm going to meet are all my college classmates. Please help me hold on."

Su Ran glanced at the subway route map and then at the address, "Line 13, transfer to Line 2, then transfer to Line and you'll be there."

"Of course it's to show off!" Su Ran said with a smile, "As tall and handsome as you are, you have done me a lot of favors just by showing off. Just by standing there, you must be jealous of those people. "

Liang Yuzhen asked with a smile: "You can see that you live up to your name. What do you do?"

"IT." Qin Shaoyan still acted shy, "I am in the IT industry."

"The IT industry is very popular now, so your income must be good." Liang Yuzhen asked casually.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay."

Su Ran quickly interrupted and said, "We are the only four in our dormitory today?"

"Huang Xuanxuan hasn't arrived yet. She came with her boyfriend." Du Xiaoying took over, "Except for the other three who are out of town, our dormitory is all here."

"Huang Xuanxuan?" Su Ran frowned, "Why did you call her here?"

Du Xiaoying said with a smile: "We are all classmates, and they are all hanging out in the capital. We don't see each other when we lower our heads, so we called them over to get together."

Dong Yueyue, who was next to her, rolled her eyes, "We treat others as classmates, but they don't treat us as classmates."

Su Ran also sneered and said: "She didn't have such a good relationship with everyone when she was in school. What's the point of building relationships after graduation?"

The eldest sister Liang Yuzhen smoothed things over with a smile, "Forget it, just call. It's a big festival, let's come together and have fun."

"That's six people?"

"No, it's seven." Du Xiaoying said with a smile, "The eldest sister's husband will be here soon."

"Huh?" Su Ran was a little surprised, "Sister, it's really strange that your family is finally free to spend the holidays with you."

Liang Yuzhen said nonchalantly: "As an old married couple, we don't care what festivals we celebrate. We happen to be free today, so I asked him to come over with us." "Then why are you so embarrassed? I am also a section chief."

"We've known each other since college, what's the point of being embarrassed."

Qin Shaoyan sat aside and watched them chat quietly.

From their reminiscences, we learned that of the eight people in their dormitory at university, only five stayed in the capital, and the remaining three returned to their hometowns and entered the system through connections.

Among the five people who stayed in Beijing, Liang Yuzhen worked in finance at a state-owned enterprise, and Du Xiaoying entered a securities company.

The remaining two people, like Su Ran, work in banks.

While the conversation was getting heated, the box door was pushed open and a man and a woman walked in.

The man was in his twenties, with a somewhat fat body. The leather jacket he wore seemed to be a bit ill-fitting, and he stood up like a ball.

With a slicked back hair and sunglasses, he looked a bit funny.

The woman was all dressed up, wearing a gray-white mink coat.

As soon as the man came in, he held up his hands with a smile and said: "Sorry, sorry, I'm a little late. I'll punish myself with three drinks in a while. Today's meal is mine."

The woman forced a fake smile and said, "I'm sorry, it's snowing today, and there's traffic jam on the road. My boyfriend's sports car can't move quickly, so I'm late."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a bit of a chill in the box.

Several other women looked at her sideways, as if they were watching her show off quietly.

Huang Xuanxuan didn't seem to notice, "Oh, it's so hot. How high should the hotel air conditioner be turned on?"

As he spoke, he took off his mink coat and hung it on the hanger.

Du Xiaoying stood up and greeted, "It's good to be here. It's really hard to leave today."

"Xuanxuan, why don't you introduce your boyfriend?"

The smile on Huang Xuanxuan's face became brighter and she held the fat man's hand tightly, "This is my boyfriend Liu Mingzu, the owner of Tiancheng Technology Company. He is engaged in the Internet and high technology."

"Oh, the Internet, high technology." Du Xiaoying said as she looked at Su Ran and Qin Shaoyan meaningfully, "Su Ran, this is the same company as your boyfriend."

Su Ran's heart tightened, thinking that Qin Shaoyan was a gamer, and he was nothing like the Internet.

Qin Shaoyan smiled and said nothing.

Liu Mingzu rolled his eyes and then laughed, "It's not high-tech, I just built an Internet company, it's not high-tech."

"Now there are Internet companies everywhere, and they are not worth mentioning."

Huang Xuanxuan immediately said, "Why isn't it considered high-tech? Your website can't be built by ordinary people even if they want to. Didn't you win some awards?"

"It's just a false reputation." Liu Mingzu said with a smile.

Huang Xuanxuan said with pride: "My boyfriend's website is worth tens of millions. He is just too humble."

Others present couldn't help but roll their eyes, looking for a nouveau riche to show off here.

Qin Shaoyan looked surprised, "The valuation is tens of millions. That's really impressive."

Huang Xuanxuan's face immediately dropped, and she said dissatisfiedly: "What is valuation? The website is worth tens of millions. If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense. Where did you come from?"

Su Ran's expression changed, his eyebrows stood up, he reached out and grabbed the teapot, "Huang Xuanxuan, what do you mean?"

"It's really tiring to be with a rich man."

Qin Shaoyan quickly held down Su Ran, fearing that she would jump up and go crazy.

Liu Mingzu laughed, "It's all a joke, please don't hurt your friendship."

Huang Xuanxuan wanted to say something else, but Liu Mingzu glared at her. Huang Xuanxuan turned her head to the side angrily, as if she was still a little angry.

"This friend is quite knowledgeable." Liu Mingzu glanced at Qin Shaoyan in surprise, and then laughed quite complacently, "Oh, it's not worth mentioning, it's not worth mentioning, my website is compared with other big companies , a drop in the bucket.”

"Boss Liu is so humble. It's really impressive to be able to make a website worth tens of millions." Qin Shaoyan nodded with a smile.

Liu Mingzu smiled and looked at Qin Shaoyan, "My friend, I heard that you are also in the same industry, where are you going to work?"

"A small startup company is not worth mentioning. It's not worth mentioning." Qin Shaoyan waved his hand and said modestly, "It was just established a few years ago."

"Now is a good opportunity to start an Internet business. If you work hard, maybe this brother's company will start up soon." Liu Mingzu said with a smile, "Now as long as the data is good, venture capital will come to invest money soon. Then The company is up."

Qin Shaoyan nodded, "With venture capital money, the company will survive. It seems that Boss Liu also got venture capital?"

Liu Mingzu laughed and said casually: "That's about right. We are already negotiating with several venture capital investors, and they are all optimistic about it."

"Congratulations to Boss Liu." Qin Shaoyan said with a smile, "Venture investors will invest money to inflate the valuation, spend money to promote the data, and then find a buyer to sell the company, and the money will be in hand."

"Eh?!" Liu Mingzu's eyes lit up and he looked at Qin Shaoyan in surprise, feeling that the silent man in front of him was so knowledgeable.

"Brother Qin, we have to have a few drinks later." Liu Mingzu suddenly became more enthusiastic and moved towards Qin Shaoyan, "It's rare to meet a colleague, let's have a good chat."

Qin Shaoyan nodded, "Definitely."

Su Ran was a little surprised and looked at the two of them back and forth. Liu Mingzu looked like a nouveau riche. How could he be so speculative in chatting with Qin Shaoyan?
"What does Boss Liu's website do?" Qin Shaoyan asked.

"Nothing, I do all kinds of business." Liu Mingzu said with a smile, "SMS add value, push various information, short stories, and sell ringtones."

"Hey, do you have the copyright for the ringtone?"

"No, they are all pirated." Liu Mingzu said nonchalantly, "Who cares about copyright now? Look at Baidu, you can search a lot of songs, I package the songs, put them on the website, and listen to the songs online. ”

"In addition, get some pictures that should be exposed or not, and the number of clicks will come."

"Hey, Boss Liu knows how to play." Qin Shaoyan exclaimed, "How about the profitability of your website?"

"Not bad, I made several million." Liu Mingzu said proudly.

"Is Cailing so profitable?" Qin Shaoyan was a little surprised.

"Those are all small ones, and the big ones are actually audio stories." Liu Mingzu said mysteriously, "I'll find a few people to convert some stories into audio, and then let members pay to listen."

"Horror ghost stories, passionate essays, the money is easy to come by."

Qin Shaoyan was shocked and gave a thumbs up, "Boss Liu is really good at playing."

"It's a small skill, it's not worth mentioning, it's not worth mentioning." Liu Mingzu said proudly, but the wrinkles on his face almost disappeared from his smile.

"Then your website can easily sell for tens of millions."

"My website is not for sale." Liu Mingzu waved his hand, "I do this website not to make money, but mainly for my career."

"Huh?!" Qin Shaoyan glanced at Liu Mingzu in surprise, "For career?"

"To be honest, my family is not short of money." Liu Mingzu said in a low voice, "My father owns several mines. I think there is no future in going back to inherit the family business and mining. It is better to go out and make a living on my own."

Good guy, this is still a coal boss.
