You call this entrepreneurship?

Chapter 225

After being stirred up for a while, the atmosphere in the box became awkward and subtle.

People present looked at Qin Shaoyan frequently, not knowing how to talk to this Internet tycoon, so everyone turned their attention to Su Ran.

The person was brought by Su Ran, and he was her boyfriend, so they all expected her to break the awkward atmosphere.

But Su Ran was also confused. She didn't even understand what happened. Everything was too sudden.

Why is Qin Shaoyan different? Wasn't he the boss of a game company that just started a business? Why did he become the CEO of an Internet company?

And judging from everyone's reactions, Qin Shaoyan's status seems to be quite high.

Su Ran looked at Qin Shaoyan with complicated eyes. Her first reaction was, isn't this guy lying again?

Qin Shaoyan seemed unaware and looked at Liu Mingzu with a smile, "Boss Liu, are the dishes ready?"

Liu Mingzu was excited and stood up quickly, "The dishes are all here, everyone, stop looking at it, come, come, come, eat and drink together."

Just as Dong Yueyue was about to reach out and take it, Du Xiaoying took it in her hand and looked at it, then she was stunned.

Su Ran was a little surprised, "So you actually don't have much money."

"Absolutely." Qin Shaoyan nodded.

Liu Mingzu soon livened up the atmosphere. Although everyone had different ideas, on the surface it was lively and not a dull moment.

Su Ran shook his head, "I really haven't seen it before."

"It's just that you are not as rich as I thought. If you really become a rich man or something, I don't know how to be friends with you." Su Ran looked at the fireworks rising in the night sky and smiled.

Su Ran breathed a sigh of relief, "That's okay."

Qin Shaoyan was a little confused, "What do you always look at?"

Su Ran stood quietly next to Qin Shaoyan, stealing glances at him from time to time.

The meal was tasteless and no one was interested in eating. Several women gathered together and quietly asked Su Ran about the situation.

Fireworks and firecrackers were originally prohibited in the capital, but that was only in the prohibited areas in the urban area, and they could be set off outside the prohibited areas.

"No."

After the meal, everyone was going to sing karaoke, but Qin Shaoyan felt that the place was too noisy.

"I..." Su Ran's face was flushed. Faced with the classmates' inquiries, she said with some embarrassment, "Actually... we are not familiar with each other yet. We just met on business."

Su Ran thought for a moment and took out a few business cards from his bag, "Here, these are the ones."

So everyone discussed and decided to find a place to set off fireworks to sober up.

However, the so-called no-discharge zone has also been set up in the past two years, and people still set off fireworks and firecrackers. After 2005, it became a no-no and restricted.

When they arrived at a river, Liu Mingzu started setting off fireworks, and Hu Zhe started to help.

Su Ran suddenly turned to look at Qin Shaoyan, "Then can you teach me how to become a rich man?"

“Besides, no one can say for sure about valuation, it’s all false.”

"It's nothing." Qin Shaoyan smiled, "Even if I have money, I can't suddenly become three-headed and six-armed."

"Hey, Sister Xiaoran, I won't ask about your boyfriend. You can also introduce his friends to me. I also have performance targets to complete."

Liang Yuzhen and others happily watched the gorgeous fireworks and cheered from time to time.

"No." Su Ran didn't hide anything and said directly, "I was selling financial products on the roadside and asked him if he would buy it. He said he wouldn't buy it."

"That's right." Qin Shaoyan said with a smile, "Why I'm worth billions is because the website's valuation is billions, not that I really have billions."

"Later, he tricked a few friends into buying financial services and helped me complete my performance. We got to know each other from time to time."

In order to help Su Ran complete his performance, Mr. Qin actually asked these famous investors to buy financial management.

Qin Shaoyan looked stunned, "Have you ever seen a rich man as poor as me?"

"That's the money that venture capital funds use for the website to operate and develop the website." Qin Shaoyan explained, "The money is not for me. Of course, there is money in it to pay my salary."

Du Xiaoying patted Dong Yueyue and said with a smile: "Don't listen to her nonsense, but to be honest, most people really can't get to know a boss of your boyfriend's level?"

"Then what's going on with the investment they're talking about? It's the venture capital investing money in you." Su Ran asked curiously.

……

Liu Mingzu suddenly became active again. He threw the sports car directly into the hotel parking lot, called two vans, took everyone and a lot of fireworks, and found a place to set off the fireworks.

Du Xiaoying felt sour in her heart when she saw a few business cards in her hand. Sure enough, the friends of rich people were all rich people.

Moreover, the security situation at this time was not as good as in later generations. Entertainment venues were all black and white, and there was a mix of good and bad.

Dong Yueyue asked curiously: "Xiao Ran, you hugged me on my lap without saying a word. Do you have any experience that you can introduce to us?"

Dong Yueyue said with envy from the side, "It's great to meet these rich friends, and they can accomplish their achievements casually."

"Doing business?" Du Xiaoying asked in surprise, "The president and manager must be personally responsible for such large customers."

"IDG Chairman Xiong Xiaoge... Sequoia President Zheng Nan, Capital Today President Xu Xin, these are all well-known investors in the venture capital circle."

"What's good?" Qin Shaoyan asked.

"They all say you are a rich man worth billions." Su Ran muttered, "Is it true?"

"why?"

"Because if you want to be rich, you first need to be rich."

"What is this mess?" Su Ran was a little confused.

"This is not a mess." Qin Shaoyan said seriously, "This is the key to making a fortune."

"If you don't want to, let it go." Su Ran rolled his eyes, "Stingy guy."

Strings of brilliant fireworks rose in the dark night sky, so coquettish and beautiful, dyeing the surroundings with colorful colors.

Su Ran turned to look at Qin Shaoyan, and said with a bright smile: "Happy New Year!"

Qin Shaoyan also laughed, "Happy New Year!"

2005 is here.

……

Qin Shaoyan opened his eyes in the morning, habitually reached under the pillow and took out his mobile phone, and then froze.

We are not yet in the era of smart phones. Today’s mobile phones can only make calls and send text messages.

Of course, higher-end mobile phones can also take photos, listen to music, and play small games, but they are far inferior to smart phones.

He threw the phone aside and lay on the bed staring at the ceiling in a daze for a long time.

After setting off the fireworks yesterday, Qin Shaoyan sent Su Ran home, returned to his rental house and fell asleep. It was already three o'clock in the morning. But Qin Shaoyan didn't want to get up at all. It was a rare holiday and he wanted to relax.

I remember the last time I was so relaxed.

Well, during the few days when I returned home during the Chinese New Year, I ate and slept every day, and ate after sleeping. I didn’t think about anything and had nothing to worry about.

After New Year's Day, the whole person becomes relaxed, and this continues until the end of the New Year.

At this time, I will think about everything I do. The New Year is almost here, so I’d better wait until after the New Year.

It's really fun to lie down and catch fish.

Before Qin Shaoyan could continue to feel good, the alarm clock rang. When he picked it up and looked at it, he found that it was already ten o'clock in the morning.

He had promised to go to Chen Peng's house for dinner at noon today, but he couldn't let Brother Chen do it.

After getting up and washing up, Qin Shaoyan walked to the company, found a Wuling Hongguang, and drove to Chen Peng's house in high spirits.

The community where Chen Peng lives is obviously the kind of family home for government officials. The houses were built in the 1980s and 1990s, and the red brick walls look a bit old and rustic.

There was no elevator in the building yet, so Qin Shaoyan climbed up the concrete stairs to the fifth floor and knocked on Chen Peng's door.

Chen Peng greeted him enthusiastically. He was wearing an apron outside his wool sweater and his sleeves were rolled up. He was obviously doing housework.

"Hey, Brother Chen, you are still busy. If you had known I would be late," Qin Shaoyan said with a smile.

"It's a rare day off. Let me clean up the house." Chen Peng didn't take it seriously. "I'll cook for you later and I'll stew fish for you."

"Hey, what did you get?"

Qin Shaoyan put the gift in his hand on the table, "You can't come empty-handed when you come to the house for the first time."

"Hurry up and take it away after you finish your meal." Chen Peng said angrily, "You learned how to give gifts so quickly."

"What kind of gift is this?" Qin Shaoyan opened the outer package, "They are all wild products sent from home, mushrooms and fungus. I don't want to cook them, so it would be a waste to keep them, so just bring them here."

Qin Shaoyan is telling the truth. Even if he gives gifts, he can't use them to test cadres.

I really didn’t know what to give Chen Peng as a guest, so I just brought it over.

Chen Peng's wife Zhuang Lijuan poked her head out of the kitchen, took a look and was overjoyed, "I don't have any at home. I'll fry some mushrooms for you later."

After Zhuang Lijuan finished speaking, she looked at Chen Peng, "Director Chen, can you accept this gift?"

Chen Peng waved his hand and smiled helplessly, "Just take it, take it."

"You can't accept gifts from others, but you can accept gifts from Mr. Qin." Chen Peng said and reached out to rummage inside the plastic bag.

Qin Shaoyan came up and grabbed it, "Don't turn it over. I was in a hurry when I came out in the morning and forgot to put money in it."

Chen Peng smiled and said nothing.

Zhuang Lijuan walked over and picked up the plastic bag, while teasing, "You official is getting less and less courageous, and sooner or later you will become suspicious."

Chen Peng glared at her and said, "Hurry up and cook. It's Xiao Qin's first time coming to eat at home. Don't make people hungry."

After Zhuang Lijuan walked into the kitchen, Chen Peng led Qin Shaoyan to the living room, sat down, and made a pot of tea.

"Don't be offended." Chen Peng said apologetically, "Some things have happened recently that I have to be careful about."

Qin Shaoyan nodded, "Understood, Brother Chen, you really need to pay more attention after your promotion. After all, big trees attract wind."

Chen Peng shook his head, "It's not just about promotion, I'm walking on thin ice now."

Qin Shaoyan was a little surprised. Chen Peng's current state was completely different from when he saw him before.

The last time I saw Chen Peng, he was still high-spirited, but he was a little depressed after being robbed of his credit. He still had energy, but now he looked gloomy.

However, it is better to ask less about ministries and commissions. Chen Peng was unwilling to talk about it, and Qin Shaoyan did not ask.

Qin Shaoyan directly changed the topic, "Brother Chen, it's a pity that you didn't go to the Los Angeles exhibition last year. The scene was really crowded."

Chen Peng smiled and said, "You want to say that I missed your most majestic time, right?"

Qin Shaoyan laughed and said nothing.

"It's a pity that I didn't see Mr. Qin killing everyone in front of foreigners." Chen Peng also sighed, "I remember the first time I saw you was at our own game exhibition."

"At that time, when Mr. Qin first came out, he also showed his talents. Many domestic manufacturers showed their faces and stole the limelight from Shanda, NetEase and other companies."

"Then in less than a year, Mr. Qin went to the international exhibition again and overwhelmed foreign game manufacturers."

Qin Shaoyan waved his hand with a smile, "A good man is brave even in his past. This is not due to me alone. This is the joint efforts of us practitioners."

"Don't say such polite words to me." Chen Peng smiled and nodded to Qin Shaoyan, "Why didn't you attend the second ChinaJoy? We just sent a few representatives to participate in the exhibition. It wouldn't be much fun without you. "

"I was on a business trip in the United States at that time and was busy with other things." Qin Shaoyan sighed, "Next time, I will take the new game to the Shanghai market to show it to my peers."

The venue of the second ChinaJoy was moved from Beijing to Shanghai, and the exhibition has been held in Shanghai since then.

Chen Peng said with a smile, "Although you didn't go to the second edition, the venue was still full of competition. This year, domestic game manufacturers are working hard and launched many online game projects in one go."

Qin Shaoyan nodded, "I heard that hundreds of online games will be launched at once. The market competition in 05 will be fierce."

"Yes." Chen Peng said with emotion, "I remember that there were not so many game projects to review in the past two years, and suddenly there are so many."

Qin Shaoyan's heart moved, "Brother Chen, have all their plate number applications been approved?"

"Yes." Chen Peng showed a meaningful smile, "Now that domestic game manufacturers have become so productive, our review must be efficient and not hinder the development of the domestic online game industry."

Qin Shaoyan asked tentatively: "What procedures are needed to apply for a version number now?"

"You can submit the same procedures directly." Chen Peng paused and said slowly, "But you can also go to an agency to help you apply."

"After all, those agencies are more efficient than applying by yourself, but they cost a little more."

Qin Shaoyan also laughed. He was familiar with the agency company.

He had dealt with these agency companies in his previous life, and it must be said that these agency companies are very powerful. Not only can they help you apply for a version number, but they can also jump in the queue as long as you add money.

Before the restriction of version numbers in 18, these agency companies were indeed very efficient.

So why are agency companies so efficient? Don't ask, just ask because they are proficient in business.

"Brother Chen, does he have any recommended agent?" Qin Shaoyan asked tentatively.

Chen Peng glanced at Qin Shaoyan and smiled, "There is no need for your company. Your games are all on the list of key projects of the Publishing House, so you don't need to deal with those people."

"There are only two on the list, and subsequent projects will also need to apply for a version number." Qin Shaoyan continued to ask, "It is better to ask clearly in advance to save trouble."

"You don't have to worry about this. The leader of your company has registered the registration, and we will consider it appropriately during the review." Chen Peng pondered for two seconds and said, "As long as there is nothing too outrageous, there will be no problem. "

Qin Shaoyan felt relieved after hearing this.
