Chapter 612: We are about to cross paths
November 11, 2023, Saturday, sunny, -1°C-7°C.
Yanjing Huating, large flat floor.
8:30 am.
The sunlight passed through the gauze curtains, filtering out the chill of the morning and coating the entire room with a layer of gold.
Pink velvet round bed.
Xiaojing’s long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes, her eyes still a little hazy.
Last night, she personally picked up all the high-end dresses and jewelry accessories she had reserved for her birthday party.
We arranged for someone to be sent to the presidential suite of Lanfeng International Hotel.
After that, she tried on clothes there for a long time and took many "shirt" photos in the mirror.
I was so excited that I fell asleep very late.
After a while, her thoughts gradually returned.
Pick up the mobile phone beside your pillow, light up the screen, and enter the WeChat group "The Beauty of the Second Dimension".
Turning sideways, the shiny white calves stretched out from the silky quilt, kicking gently.
A pair of big eyes looked through last night's chat history with sparkling eyes.
Qingqing brags in the group again. The difference is that this time there is Susu next to her as a "witness".
In the praise of Susu, Qingqing has become the heroine of the novel, the kind that is so cool and awesome.
The laughter of "hehehehe" rang out in the bedroom.
The more Xiaojing watched, the more interesting it became.
When she was mistakenly drawn into this group, she thought they were just ordinary two-dimensional people, but she didn’t expect that everyone was talented and spoke nicely. She really liked it here.
Especially Qingqing, she liked this group friend very much from the beginning.
She has a great imagination, rich story details and shocking plots, which is her daily pastime.
She was very happy when she later discovered that their boyfriends were the same person.
In the recent investigation, she also roughly figured out the real-life identities of the "supporting actresses" in Xu Qing's story.
For example, the "green tea bitch" who has beautiful legs and always wants to be on top should be Lin Muxue.
That mature and charming female saleswoman at a luxury car 4S shop and Xu Qing’s “cousin” is Wen Ruan.
There is another partner of Tang and Song Company, who should be the vice president of Songmei Clothing, Gao Mengting.
Thinking of Gao Mengting.
Xiaojing exited the group chat and opened Douyin.
Directly entered the four words "Songmei Clothing" in the search box at the top.
Soon, an official flagship store account with a blue V certification popped up.
The avatar is a black and white LOGO of "HEYISTUDIO" with a sense of design
Click in.
In the window of the homepage, there is a dazzling display of various styles of clothing. Each piece is photographed with great quality. The model is also a well-known blogger in the fashion circle.
And what sells the most and is placed in the most eye-catching position is an urban jacket that looks full of design.
The quantity sold below shows an astonishing number: 20,000+.
Xiaojing’s eyes widened slightly.
A jacket with an original price of 1,299 and a Double Eleven discount price of 599. It is also a new brand of Songmei Clothing. It was able to sell more than 20,000 pieces in just three days of warm-up activities!
This means over 12 million sales!
Too exaggerated!
She continued to scroll down, and the more she looked, the more surprised she became.
This data is a bit outrageous. The anchor named "He Yiyi" has almost three million fans.
After all, she had worked in Jinxiu Trading for a long time. Later, she went to study this industry specifically because she started a live broadcast e-commerce business in the Tang and Song Dynasties.
She knows very well that in the fierce competition in the apparel industry, for a new brand to reach this level in such a short period of time, it requires precise management and strong operational capabilities.
Speaking of which, at the beginning, she didn’t know that her boyfriend had Lanfeng International Hotel under his name, let alone that he had a close relationship with someone of Shangguan Qiuya’s level.
At that time, all she was thinking about was how to use her father’s connections and the channel resources of Jinxiu Trading to help his small company grow bigger and stronger step by step in the future.
But later, because of something wrong with her father, she was urgently transferred to Tang Yi Precision. During this time, she didn’t pay much attention to Songmei Clothing.
Unexpectedly, in just a few months, it has grown to such an astonishing extent.
Although at present, this live broadcast e-commerce company is not very impressive, the most terrifying thing about the live broadcast e-commerce industry is its growth rate. Maybe after a while, it will become a large company with a valuation of hundreds of millions.
Xiaojing exhaled softly, her expression became more solemn.
It seems that this woman named Gao Mengting will also be a big problem in the future.
Of course, compared with the current "big devil" Wenruan, it is still a bit behind. Nebula International Group has been making a lot of noise recently. It is said that it will apply for IP0 soon, and Wenruan's value will skyrocket by then.
Although Xiaojing, a thirty-year-old rich woman who is mature, sexy and powerful, is confident, she has to admit that she cannot compare.
This is why she can't wait to set up the "birthday stage" for Tang and Song Dynasty, and for herself.
If we don’t solve the crisis of my father’s new energy company, my status as the “main palace” will really be completely suppressed!
Everything depends on tomorrow!
Xiaojing’s eyes flickered, and the corners of her mouth curved into a reluctance to admit defeat.
She lifted the quilt and came to the bedside, stretched out greatly,
The white silk suspender nightgown with a cute panda printed on it also shrank upward, revealing a large area of snow-white and moist skin and a fat chest with a strawberry pattern printed on it.
She just sat there blankly, thinking for a while.
Bare feet, stepping on the soft plush carpet.
She walked into the cloakroom and put on a set of slim-fitting autumn clothes, which perfectly outlined her sweet and sexy body curves.
Simple washing, skin care, humming a song, and walking out of the bedroom briskly.
Aunt Pei, the nanny who had been waiting in the living room, immediately came over to greet her.
"Good morning, Miss. Breakfast is ready." Aunt Pei's tone was respectful and kind of elder.
"Thank you, Aunt Pei." Xiaojing smiled sweetly and sat down in the restaurant.
The sumptuous and exquisite breakfast was served one by one, and the presentation was as beautiful as a work of art.
Xiaojing took out her mobile phone, took a photo of the eggs Benedict dotted with caviar and snow peas, and sent it to Tang Song.
Leave a message: "("3) Good morning, Song. Today is Double Eleven, your company must be very busy, come on! ”
While eating, she chatted with Tang and Song, and from time to time she let out a few chuckles that were amused by herself.
Aunt Pei next to her looked at this scene, hesitated for a moment, stepped forward and whispered: "Miss, yesterday I heard from my wife that there will be a very distinguished big shot at your birthday party tomorrow, so my wife invited a lot of her best friends to support the occasion."
"Huh?" Xiaojing blinked and paused, "What big shot?"
(.)
Could it be that my secret has been leaked?
I kept the matter of Zheng Qiudong and Shangguan Qiuya secret, just because I wanted to give a big shock to my parents and Qin Hua.
Aunt Pei looked at the door, lowered her voice, and said in a tone that was both awe and not understanding:
"It seems that he is from Singapore. He is said to be the 'Prince' of some large group, and his surname is Meng. I heard my wife tell a friend that her family operates what is called a "family office" that specializes in managing uncountable amounts of money. They also said that their family is preparing to take a lot of money to invest in new energy or something like this. That person seems to be less than thirty years old, unmarried, and has released an album and published a book. He seems to be very famous. ”
Xiaojing’s brows rose instantly.
She naturally knows about the family office. Many people in this circle are doing this at home.
But most of them rely on domestic securities companies or trust companies to do some wealth management and inheritance business.
However, if your mother can specifically mention it using words like "Singapore" and "Family Office", then it is absolutely no small matter to prove the identity and background of the other party.
In addition, "countless money", "new energy" and other information are connected in series.
A clear image emerged in her mind: a "prince" from a top overseas consortium who holds huge amounts of capital and is looking for high-quality new energy assets for investment.
This happened to hit the most urgent and vulnerable need of my father.
Huineng Electronics has technical reserves, otherwise my father would not have sold Jinxiu Trading and still had to save it.
Maybe you can survive this catastrophe and really get up.
This is a bit troublesome.
What she needs is a shock, so that her parents can see the "power" of Tang and Song Dynasty (the actual controller of Lanfeng International), and see the top connections behind him - Shangguan Qiuya.
Then we will use Shangguan Qiuya’s energy to leverage Tang Yi’s sophisticated resources and find ways to revitalize Huineng Electronics on the technical route.
In this way, Tang and Song Dynasties became the "saviors" of the Tian family.
From now on, even if the parents know that there are other women around Tang Song, they can only admit it with their noses in view of this huge favor and the potential that Tang Song has shown.
She can also play with Tang and Song in peace, and even pull Qingqing, Xiaoxue and so on.
But now, the sudden appearance of this man named Meng is likely to completely deviate from the script of the whole scene.
After all, no matter how powerful Shangguan Qiuya is, she is only Director Jin’s assistant.
What she can mobilize are industrial resources and connections. This is a relatively long process that requires intensive cultivation.
And what this man named Meng can bring is probably the simplest, crudest, and most direct capital.
He can directly use his "money power" to spend money to solve Huineng Electronics' capital chain problems, or even directly initiate acquisitions.
If at tomorrow's birthday party, there is such a "financier dad" standing next to his father, then the "shock effect" brought by Tang Song and Shangguan Qiuya behind him will be greatly reduced.
Although Tang Song is also very unusual, it owns 80% of the equity of Lanfeng International, and there is also a live broadcast e-commerce company that is growing rapidly.
But these industries are indeed not on the same track in the face of family offices that frequently mobilize hundreds of millions of dollars in capital.
In the final analysis, the Tang and Song dynasties started from scratch, and their families were just ordinary rural families. There was a huge gap in their backgrounds.
This "future son-in-law's strength display" originally led by her is likely to evolve into a "high-quality potential son-in-law PK competition" led by her father.
This made her feel a little irritable.
"Miss, does your wife want to introduce him to you?" Aunt Pei looked worried.
She knows that Xiaojing has a boyfriend and will be there.
If by that time, the master and his wife are accompanied by such a person, and all their relatives and friends are surrounding each other, then there will definitely be problems between Xiaojing and her boyfriend.
She is a senior housekeeper who has been employed by the Tian family for more than ten years. She has almost watched Xiaojing grow up.
Xiaojing pursed her lips and said, "It's okay, Aunt Pei."
But the good thing is that Zheng Qiudong, the chairman of Deju Renhe, will also come this time. He is a real big shot, and his status and energy should be able to control the man named Meng in China.
It’s a pity that Zheng Qiudong is different from Shangguan Qiuya. He did not develop that special close relationship with his brother from Tang and Song Dynasties.
Ah... I'm pregnant...
Xiaojing's cheeks were slightly red, and she gave herself a smack in her heart.
Of course Brother Tang and Song cannot have an intimate relationship with him, wouldn’t that make him gay?
Although she has some perverted hobbies, she is not a fujoshi!
But...
Her eyes rolled slyly, and an idea quietly formed in her heart.
She must find a way to cleverly use Shangguan Qiuya's little ideas to bring the big boss Zheng Qiudong into the situation at tomorrow's birthday party.
Let’s cheer for Tang and Song brothers together!
10 am.
There was a soft "click" from the door lock.
Xiao Jing, who was chatting in the living room, raised her head and said immediately: "Dad, you are back!"
Tian Chengye said "Yeah", took off his suit jacket and threw it casually on the sofa.
The whole person sank heavily.
The tie was torn crookedly, and his face was full of haggard and exhaustion that could not be concealed.
For more than half a month, he spent most of his time at Huineng Electronics in Hangzhou.
On the one hand, I have to appease the technical team that is on the verge of collapse, and on the other hand, I have to deal with various investment institutions, hoping to attract life-saving funds.
The whole person has lost a lot of weight.
Xiaojing quickly put down her phone and frowned, "What's going on? There are bloodshot eyes. Did you not sleep well last night?"
Tian Chengye rubbed his swollen eyebrows and said in a hoarse voice: "I didn't sleep all night - I regret it, I regret it so much that I can't sleep. Jingjing, dad did something really stupid."
"What happened?" Xiaojing's heart also started to feel anxious.
Tian Chengye looked at the ceiling unfocused, his voice full of uncontrollable annoyance, "Yesterday, there was great news from Jinxiu Trading."
Xiaojing reacted immediately, "Has the valuation increased?"
Last month, in order to plug the capital hole of Huineng Electronics, her father reluctantly sold 7.5% of his equity in Jinxiu Trading.
At that time, it was calculated based on the overall valuation of 1.8 billion.
Because everyone was optimistic about the future appreciation space of Jinxiu, a company from the imperial capital called "Jingyi Asset Management Company" soon took over.
It is said that although this company has just been established, it has a strong overseas capital background and is extremely generous.
Directly used 135 million in cash to acquire, easing his father’s debt crisis.
Tian Chengye was silent for a long time before speaking with difficulty in an almost dream-like voice:
"Internal information from Meigou Technology has been revealed. Its 'Global Express' plan has been jointly approved by the Ministry of Commerce, the General Administration of Customs and other departments, and has reached cooperation agreements with more than ten countries along the 'Belt and Road'. In a series of channel memorandums, there is the name of Jinxiu Trading"
After hearing this, Xiaojing understood instantly.
Because of Smile Capital, Jinxiu Trading has already had in-depth cooperation with Meigou Technology in the cross-border e-commerce business, and even has some internal priority channels.
However, because Meigou’s overseas business model has been finalized, Jinxiu Commerce was a late entrant. Although it also got a piece of the pie, it has never been able to eat the core piece of the cake.
But it’s different now!
This is a brand new strategic level cooperation promoted at the national level!
Jinxiu Trading will undoubtedly be among the first batch to take advantage of this trend!
Tian Chengye scratched his hair in pain, his voice full of regret: "One wrong step, one wrong step! If I could wait a little longer, even just a month before selling, the valuation might be 2.5 billion, or even 3 billion! This time, I lost almost 100 million! "
Looking at her father's face full of despair and unwillingness, Xiaojing sighed in her heart.
She knows better than anyone else that this mistake will have a heavy blow to her father, who is now in a critical moment.
But there is no regret medicine in the world.
It is impossible for the shares of Jinxiu Trading to come back.
"Dad, it's okay. In business, if you make a profit, you will lose, and there will be other opportunities in the future."
Tian Chengye looked at the sweet and well-behaved daughter in front of him, he hesitated several times, and finally turned into a heavy sigh.
Today, he is besieged on all sides,
Zhongcheng Group is in decline, and his personal assets have shrunk significantly.
Individuals are burdened with huge loans.
Sold the equity of Jinxiu Trading to support Huineng Electronics, but missed out on major benefits.
One wrong step leads to a wrong step.
He was really scared. He was afraid that one day a thunderstorm would suddenly hit him, and the whole family and his daughter's stable and comfortable life would be lost.
It is precisely because of this that he is more urgent than ever before, wanting his daughter to have a future that is strong enough and reliable enough.
Yancheng Normal University, School of Computer Science and Technology, Room 412.
The teaching building on weekends is much quieter than on weekdays.
Jiang Yourong was sitting in his office, wearing a pair of anti-blue light glasses on the bridge of his nose, revising an application report for the National Natural Science Foundation of China with concentration.
“Ding-ding-ding-ding-one-one” A slightly abrupt cell phone ringing tone broke the tranquility in the room.
She picked up the phone, her heart skipped a beat, she stood up from the chair almost subconsciously, walked quickly to the corner by the window, and pressed the answer button.
"Hello, Assistant Shangguan." Her voice was unconsciously filled with respect.
"Yourong, I'm not disturbing your weekend rest, are you?" Shangguan Qiuya's cold and sweet voice came from the other end of the phone, but with a kind of friendly smile.
"No, no, I was just sorting out some information in the office."
"That's good," Shangguan Qiuya's tone was brisk and natural, "I just came from the imperial capital, and I'm at your normal university. It’s nearby. I thought I’d finally come and have lunch with you. I wonder if it’s convenient? I’ve already made a reservation at the restaurant. ” This sudden invitation made Jiang Yourong’s heart skip a beat.
She knows that people like Shangguan Qiuya will never really just "drop in" or "casually" have a meal.
"Convenient! Of course it is convenient!"
"We will be at the bottom of your teaching building soon."
"Okay, I'll be down right away!"
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Yourong took a deep breath, walked to the mirror, and quickly sorted out her makeup and clothes.
After confirming that everything was in order, he put on his coat, picked up his handbag, and walked out of the office quickly.
When I arrived at the teaching building, I immediately saw the aura-filled black Maybach parked on the roadside.
Next to the car, a tall and slender figure was standing there elegantly.
Wearing a well-tailored long beige windbreaker with a turtleneck cashmere sweater of the same color underneath, he exudes a quiet yet powerful aura that cannot be ignored.
"Assistant Shangguan." Jiang Yourong stepped forward quickly.
"Yourong, here we come." Shangguan Qiuya raised her head, with a well-placed smile on her face, and opened the rear door for her personally.
The two of them exchanged pleasantries, then got into the back seat of the car and closed the door.
Maybach starts smoothly, isolating the hustle and bustle of the campus.
Because they had just met each other some time ago, Jiang Yourong was not as nervous as when they first met.
But looking at the distinguished Shangguan assistant next to her, she couldn't help but feel a burst of complicated emotions in her heart.
Fate is so wonderful sometimes. If I hadn't left at the beginning.
Perhaps at this moment, those sitting next to Director Jin should have their own place.
I laughed to myself in my heart.
Jiang Yourong took the initiative and said, "Does Assistant Shangguan come to Yancheng this time for important work?"
Shangguan Qiuya smiled and said in a casual tone: "Well, I'm here to attend a friend's birthday party."
Jiang Yourong was a little surprised. She never thought that with the status of Shangguan Qiuya, there would be friends in Yancheng who needed her to attend the birthday party in person.
Shangguan Qiuya did not stay too long on this topic, but instead started chatting with her.
Talked about her teaching life at the university and the scientific research projects she is currently working on.
The atmosphere gradually became familiar.
More than ten minutes later.
The car stopped outside a high-end private restaurant.
Entering the box, the two sat opposite each other,
Shangguan Qiuya seemed to suddenly remember something, and asked seemingly casually: "By the way, Yourong, I remember that you and Xie Shuyu, the founder of Shimmer Coffee, have been friends for many years, right?"
"Yes!" Jiang Yourong thought and nodded immediately, "We are university alumni and have kept in touch since then. We are both in Yancheng now.
We have a very good relationship."
The corners of Shangguan Qiuya's mouth raised slightly, revealing a meaningful smile.
"Director Jin has always paid close attention to new domestic consumption areas. Some time ago, Smile Holdings just fully acquired a specialty coffee bean supplier located in Yun Province. This company not only has its own high-altitude planting estate and roasting factory, but also established a strong beverage research and development team with the support of Smile Holdings."
She paused, her eyes fell on Jiang Yourong's face, and said slowly: "I hope to convey a cooperation intention to Mr. Xie through you.
We can become the exclusive raw material supplier of Shimmer Coffee in the future. At the same time, our R&D team can also have in-depth cooperation with her,
“To jointly develop new products suitable for the domestic market”
“Of course this is a good thing!” Jiang Yourong suppressed the shock in his heart and tried to sound calm, “I believe Shuyu will be very interested.”
Shangguan Qiuya nodded, and then added: "Moreover, Director Jin also mentioned that this supply company will set up an 'AI intelligent quality control and flavor research and development laboratory' in the future, which exactly needs the technical support of professional teams from universities. She feels that you and your team are a perfect fit. ”
At this moment, Jiang Yourong felt a huge current rush from his tail vertebrae to the top of his head, and the blood all over his body boiled instantly.
Lanfeng International Senior Apartment.
The door of Room 2002 was gently pushed open, and two beautiful figures came out.
Lin Muxue carried the Hermès Birkin and walked towards the elevator while talking to Xu Ning about Xuetang Culture’s recent business expansion.
With the official putting into use of Yannan Short Drama Film and Television Base, her artist management business has developed extremely rapidly.
In just three months, the company has initially achieved profitability.
But what makes her a little uncomfortable is that the company's money is different from personal money. It cannot be taken out and spent directly. It can only wait for dividends or be reimbursed through some legal methods.
But that’s not bad, at least she is now a veritable “boss”.
When her thoughts were wandering.
A tall and oppressive figure suddenly appeared in the center of the corridor in front of them.
The lighting in the corridor is carefully designed with warm colors. The light slants down from the ceiling, just covering the figure.
She wore a close-fitting beige knitted dress, which outlined the perfect curves of the front and back, and she wore a long black cashmere coat with excellent texture casually.
The simple color scheme, but she wears it with a powerful and heart-stopping aura.
The facial features are three-dimensional and bright, like Greek sculptures.
Her wavy golden hair spread over her shoulders like a waterfall, making her skin look so cold and white that it seemed to glow under the light.
Lin Muxue’s heart jumped suddenly.
Anne Kate!
The reason why it can be recognized quickly.
Not only because the other party is a committee member of Juqinghuijin, but also because she met him at the Lanfeng International Apartment where Su Yu lived last time before Su Yu’s concert.
But at that time, she was just an inconspicuous Xiaoxue, and she didn’t even speak much.
But why did she suddenly appear here?
Just when Lin Muxue was in shock and doubt, Anne Kate stopped.
A pair of ice-blue eyes, as clear and cold as a Siberian glacial lake, shot straight towards me.
It is a kind of examination from a higher dimension,
It is calm and indifferent, but with a sense of oppression that seems to penetrate the soul.
Lin Muxue stopped, feeling a little nervous.
She knows some details about the other party, one of the heirs of the American Kate family, a truly world-class white, rich and beautiful person.
Looking at each other.
Lin Muxue forced herself to calm down, and put on a decent smile on her face, "Hello, Ms. Kate, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here."
"Notatall, darling." (Not a coincidence at all, dear.)
Annie's voice was very soft, with a lazy American accent, and the ending was slightly raised.
Immediately, she took a step forward and approached Lin Muxue, with a playful and unpredictable smile on her lips.
"l'mhereforyou." (I'm here to find you.)
Lin Muxue's legs tightened.
Damn (.) convex! Sure enough, they are coming for me, Emperor Mu Xue!
And why does this voice sound so familiar? !
She subconsciously held her breath and tried to search among the fragments of memory.
A blurry fragment suddenly flashed out.
The last time Tang Yan was on a business trip in Shanghai, when she called Yingying, the foreign female voice that came from the other side of the receiver, mixed with begging for mercy and gasping, seemed to be her!
