south wind into my arms

Chapter 42 When Love Knocks at the Door
The "friend" Nanfengkou refers to is an investment consultant named Zheng Jiarui.

This investment advisor was introduced by Ling Junyu.Ling Junyu himself is unreliable, but the contacts introduced to Nanfeng are quite reliable.Zheng Jiarui is 27 years old this year, a returnee with a master's degree, works in an investment consulting company, and has done several big cases.She is also a rich second generation, but she is very low-key. Few people in the company know her family background. Her achievements today are mainly due to her own hard work.

Nanfeng fell in love with a project and invited Zheng Jiarui to do a risk assessment for himself.Zheng Jiarui was very conscientious, leading her team to work for several days, and gave Nanfeng a detailed assessment report.

The phased work is over, Nanfeng invited Zheng Jiarui to dinner tonight, the purpose is not simply to thank her.

On a beautiful night, two adult single men and women meet for dinner in an elegant restaurant. No matter how high-sounding the reason is, there will also be some ambiguous atmosphere in it.

What's more, the men are handsome and the women are pretty.

Zheng Jiarui's appearance belongs to that kind of gentle and elegant beauty, which is dignified and generous without being aggressive.She always speaks softly and calmly, and does things efficiently and straightforwardly.From a male point of view, Nanfeng admired her very much.

After Nanfeng hung up the phone, Zheng Jiarui didn't ask who he was talking to, but just apologized for talking to him accidentally just now.

Nan Feng shook his head, "You don't have to do this... Well, what did you want to ask me just now?"

"Oh, I just want to ask, have you decided to vote for this project?"

In this world, there are people who have money but no place to spend it, and there are people who have projects but no money to operate. Some organizations are dedicated to bringing these two types of people together.Nanfeng has participated in several project exhibitions, and the project they are discussing now is what he saw in the exhibition.

This is a smartphone game development company.The company's R&D team once worked in a famous online game company, and then got venture capital, so they came out and formed a new company, aiming at the smartphones that have emerged in the past two years.It can be said that their market positioning is very forward-looking.But forward-looking means risks, and no one can guarantee how accurate their predictions are.In many cases, capital is blind, and the investor at the beginning paid out the money with a very limited understanding of the game industry.The research and development team spent a year and spent seventy-eight million yuan, and the finished product has not yet been launched.Investors felt that they had been deceived and withdrew their capital in a rage. Now if the company has no capital injection, it can only declare bankruptcy.

So the person in charge of the R&D team often went to project exhibitions to solicit investment, went there a few times, and gradually became a familiar face there.

The blindness of capital lies in following the trend.Everyone is rushing to do the project, well, I will do it too.It is definitely not good for others to ignore the project, and I will never touch it.I do popular projects, but they are too novel. Sorry, I don't believe the pie you drew for me.

So this unlucky mobile game company fell into an embarrassing situation.

It's not that no one voted during the period, but most of them took advantage of the fire to rob. 300 million to buy 70.00% of your shares, sell or not?Do not sell?Hehe, I'll see how long you can last.

If it is really sold, it would be too useless, and what will happen after the 300 million is spent?They have nothing left to sell but go bankrupt.

Zheng Jiarui had a very difficult problem when doing this investment analysis: such a company that has no finished products online, it does not have rigid indicators such as users and traffic, so how should its value be judged?With the three-inch tongue of the team leader?

Therefore, after Zheng Jiarui's analysis, the suggestion to Nanfeng is that it is best not to invest.Because the risks are too great, the possible benefits cannot be effectively estimated.

However, Nanfeng does not show the mountains and does not show the water, and has never expressed his attitude.Zheng Jiarui felt intuitively that he might be more inclined to invest.

Sure enough, Nan Feng nodded calmly when he heard her asking, "Yeah."

Zheng Jiarui found it incredible, "Did you not understand my analysis?"

"I understand. I want to thank you for your comprehensive analysis."

"Cough," Zheng Jiarui was a little embarrassed, "You're welcome. I'm curious about the reason for your investment. Now that you've read the report, you should be very clear that this is not a good choice."

Nanfeng smiled.His smile was so dazzling that Zheng Jiarui was almost stunned.Then she heard him say, "Your analysis report has an analysis on the R&D team. The R&D team has been out of pay for two months, but no one has left."

Zheng Jiarui thought she would hear some good advice, but she didn't expect it to be this "talent first" theory again.She shook her head and said, "I admit that team cohesion is indeed a very important factor, but the company's plight cannot be saved by team cohesion."

Nan Feng also shook his head, and he leaned back on the chair lightly, "You know, I followed that team leader."

Zheng Jiarui couldn't help laughing, "Why do you still..." Do such a thing?Stalk someone?

Nanfeng didn't explain why he followed him. He went on to say, "After he was rejected at the project presentation, he took the subway to the park. Then he hid in a corner of the park and cried. After crying, he called his colleagues one by one to apologize. Later, he and his colleagues decided to stay for a while. He also asked his colleagues to move in to live with him in order to save rent.”

Very good, not only followed, but also peeped, and eavesdropped.

On the one hand, Zheng Jiarui lamented Nanfeng's wretchedness, on the other hand, she was also surprised at the downfall of this company.But, she raised her eyebrows, "You don't want to tell me that you want to invest because you sympathize with them? With all due respect, if that's the case...it's an insult to my profession."

"No, I mean, I think they're really serious about what they're doing."

"Then?"

He looked into her eyes, his eyes were deep and calm, but with unquestionable confidence, he said, "It's rare to do things seriously."

"So? You're starting to talk about feelings again now? Did I hear you right? Aren't businessmen all driven by profit?"

"Businessmen are indeed profit-seeking, but the market is not. The principle of the market is not money, but sincerity. Only sincere works can impress users and bring benefits. With all due respect, there are more and more sincere works in the market now. If there is less, many people regard users as rich fools, putting the cart before the horse, and a vicious circle. In such an environment, it is easier for sincere works to stand out.”

Zheng Jiarui opened her mouth, "I'm going to be moved by you."

Nanfeng smiled and continued, "Besides, this team has more than just sincerity. I have read the resumes of the R&D team, and I have also seen the mobile games they are working on, although they have not yet finished. I think this The game has potential."

"Aren't you afraid of losing everything?"

"It's okay, I have money."

"..." It's too much to ask for a fight.

Lu Sheng didn't dare to ask what kind of friend that "one friend" was, because she was afraid of hearing an answer she could not accept.

After that, she hypnotized herself every day, lived in the world of chicken soup for the soul, trained as hard as chicken blood, was exhausted after training, and fell asleep after returning home.Give yourself no time to think about it.

Probably, what she was avoiding was not just a person, but a possibility, a possibility that he had his own life, love and family, but she was powerless as he drifted away from her.

The days slipped by like this, and at the end of the month, they had half a day off.Xu Zhiyao made serious and detailed plans for this precious half-day vacation, but in the end he was called away by Teacher Kang, who asked him to take a test.

Nanfeng asked Lu Sheng how he wanted to spend this half-day vacation.Lu Sheng's heart almost drifted to him, why didn't she want to go out to play with him, but... she endured it for a long time, then gritted her teeth and said, "I want to train."

Nanfeng felt sorry for her a little, he said, "You don't have to work so hard, it's okay to relax once in a while."

"I can't relax, I learned later than others, so every minute and every second of mine is more precious than others."

this kid...

Nanfeng had no choice but to let her go.He wanted to bring some delicious food to visit Lu Sheng in the afternoon, but he was afraid of distracting her, so he was hesitating when Zheng Jiarui called.

Lu Sheng was not alone in training in the afternoon - Ning Xia also stayed for training.Ningxia is very flamboyant, walks with style, speaks straightforwardly, but is not malicious.Seeing Lu Sheng staying behind, she asked, "Why don't you go home?"

Lu Sheng replied, "There is no one in my family."

"Is your dad not home?"

"My... Dad?" Lu Sheng stared round his eyes, unable to understand why she asked.

Ning Xia: "Didn't your father visit you often?"

Lu Sheng finally realized who Ning Xia was talking about, because Nan Feng was the only one who often came to see her.She couldn't laugh or cry, "Who said it belonged to my dad?!"

"Isn't it?"

"no!"

Ning Xia pouted, "No, no, why are you in such a hurry?"

"I..." Lu Sheng stopped talking, and his eyes drifted with guilt.She turned her face away and said, "Anyway, stop talking nonsense."

"Okay, okay, I found that you have a big temper."

Then during the training, because neither of them had a partner, they automatically formed a team to fight.Lu Sheng's advantage in Ningxia's hands is limited, but on the other hand, if she fights with someone with a higher level than herself, she will gain more.

Drinking a bowl of chicken soup for the soul every day, she is really optimistic now.

She also ate dinner with Ning Xia.The TV in the cafeteria was broadcasting sports news. Qiao returned to China late at night to participate in business activities, and many reporters were covering her.

Qiao Wanwan participated in the Australian Open main draw in mid-January, but was not lucky enough to sign. In the second round, she met the world's tenth-ranked player and was eliminated.When she came back, she was in a good state of mind. The reporter asked her if she felt any regrets. She shook her head and smiled, "Luck is also a part of strength, so there is nothing to regret."

Then Qiao Wanwan introduced her junior sister to the reporter.

Her younger sister played in the Australian Open Junior Qualifying Tournament this year. Although she didn't make it to the main draw in the end, it was an experience close to a Grand Slam.Qiao Wanwan praised her junior sister fiercely in front of the reporters, and her junior sister's name was Nan Ge.

Ning Xia: "Stupid!"

Lu Sheng: "Disabled!"

The two cursed at the TV almost at the same time. After cursing, they found that the other party also shared the same hatred, and they were surprised.Lu Sheng asked, "You don't like her either?"

"I like her uncle! Hey, wait a minute, you also have a grudge against that broken bowl?"

"What is a broken bowl?...Uh, I get it, but what I hate is Nan Ge..."

Well, it turns out they were not talking about the same person.Ning Xia asked Lu Sheng, "How did that Nan Ge offend you? Don't tell me, this girl looks like a man, her name is 'Ge', and she is very realistic."

Lu Sheng told about Nan Ge poisoning her when she was a child.

It was the first time for Ningxia to hear such a thing without a lower limit. After hearing it, she was very angry, "Is this kind of person an anti-social personality? You should put him in prison and never let him out!"

Lu Sheng nodded heavily, and then asked Ning Xia, "What about you? What's the grudge between you and Qiao Wanwan?"

"Kids, don't ask questions!"

Lu Sheng: Hey, you are not kind...

The evening training ended a little earlier, and Lu Sheng wanted to go back and tidy up his things.She called Nanfeng first, but after two shocks, Nanfeng hung up.

Lu Sheng was so sad.

Then Nanfeng sent a message: watching a movie.

See a movie.

Lu Sheng took a deep breath and replied, "Where can I watch a movie?"
Nanfeng: People's Emporium.

Lu Sheng: What movie are you watching?

Nanfeng: "When Love Knocks on the Door".

Very good, watch, love, love, movies, movies.

Lu Sheng gritted her teeth, her fingers trembling slightly, and she typed a few words, "Who are you watching with?" After thinking for a while, she felt that she should restrain herself at the moment, so she pretended to reply casually: Do you watch romantic movies alone? Are you bored? yeah.

It took a while for Nanfeng to reply to her: Well, with a friend.

It was "a friend" again, and Lu Sheng intuitively told that this "a friend" and that "a friend" were the same friend, maybe they were girlfriends!

Woman, have dinner with him, watch a movie, what is this if it's not a date?
She suddenly felt stuffy in her heart, sore and astringent, indescribably uncomfortable.She finally realized that her previous evasions were so vulnerable, a little hint from reality could instantly disintegrate this false line of defense.

There is always a small lump in her heart, which is like a snowball in a place she can't see, and it is getting bigger and bigger, and it is too big to control.

She couldn't help herself.Before he could change his clothes, he ran outside with his mobile phone.When she got downstairs, she saw Ning Xia who had returned from buying supper.This person in Ningxia is very dedicated, but he is a bit greedy. He can't control his mouth, and he likes to eat supper indiscriminately at night.

Ning Xia saw Lu Sheng panicking, with a look of bitterness and hatred on his face, as if he was still gnashing his teeth.She asked strangely, "Why are you going?"

Lu Sheng narrowed his eyes, and almost squeezed out two words between his teeth: "Catch, rape."
