"Yuejie, Yuejie, is that prepared by my brother for me? And can you play the piano?" Excited beyond measure, Jiang Xiaoya discovered that there was actually a piano in her home. Regardless of her inability to play, she chattered away.
Li Yue understood that this was because the piano had originally been in the house; when they bought it, the seller couldn't be bothered to take it away and simply sold it along with the property.
"Yes, this is specially prepared for you by your brother, but I can't play, so I can't teach you!" Li Yue said, patting the still-short Jiang Xiaoya on the head. "However, if you're willing, you can take some piano lessons and learn!"
The significance of having a piano was much greater for Xiao Ya than whether she could play it or not. She hadn't yet realized the difficulty of learning piano; she just giggled and returned to the piano room, opening it up and testing each key one by one.
Li Yue recalled what Jiang Yizhou had instructed him about his sister and couldn't help but feel that his sister's heart was indeed quite large. After being poor for so long and suddenly encountering so many new experiences that she had never had before, she seemed dazzled, intoxicated by the vibrant Flower Bed around her.
Now she wanted to become a star, moving from her hometown to the capital city, with a packed schedule ahead of her. With zero foundation, Jiang Xiaoya had so much to catch up on. Even if she found shortcuts over two years, she still needed to be good enough on her own.
If it weren't for having a wealthy brother, this path would be incredibly arduous.
Even with her brother's support, if she didn't work hard herself, she wouldn't get far either.
"This girl really makes you laugh. When we were poor before, she was such a diligent and honest person. Now look at her; her brother dotes on her so much that she's become like this. Plus, she's grown up now and is harder to manage!" Gao Qingzhen said helplessly.
Jiang Maoqiang was exploring the structure and materials of the house; as a part-time construction worker, he could still recognize the materials used.
Li Yue raised his hand and looked at his watch. "It's fine, Auntie. I've arranged for a nanny to help you adapt to life here. The lifestyle in the city might be quite different from that in the countryside. Once you and Uncle adapt, you won't need the nanny's assistance anymore!"
After some small talk and instructions were exchanged, Li Yue left with Mao Ya and Xiao Juan's mother.
Jiang Qingyu felt somewhat uneasy facing the two women, one of whom had once threatened to have her taken to the police station. She certainly felt uncomfortable all over.
Even sitting in the car, she couldn't hide her inner anxiety. Fortunately, there was still that favor backing her up, so she didn't have to worry too much.
“Mother, I’ll just call you Aunt,” Li Yue said with a friendly smile. “I don’t have many suitable jobs here, just a few cleaning positions. I wonder if you would be interested, Aunt?”
Jiang Qingyu's expectations were suddenly shattered.
...
Taking a deep breath, the summer heat made Ding Sanshi feel somewhat restless. He also had doubts about the relationship between Zhengyi Venture Capital and Zhengyi Technology, but he didn’t want to sell his Mailbox system that he built from scratch. If he could secure some funding with less stringent conditions, that would be ideal.
However, when he arrived at the address provided, he was taken aback by the scene of major renovations at Zhengyi Venture Capital. The sign for Panda Venture Capital being installed made him question whether he had come to the wrong place.
“Hello, I’m the scheduled Ding Sanshi. Also, may I ask what Outside is doing?” Ding Sanshi navigated around the construction site and entered, reporting his identity while inquiring about Outside's situation.
“Hello, Mr. Ding. Please go inside and turn left; the second room is the reception room where General Xu will meet you. As for Outside?” The receptionist replied somewhat frustrated, “The exterior was just completed recently, but for some reason, the chairman suddenly decided to change the company name and logo, so both the sign and logo wall need to be redone!”
“I see, thank you very much!” Ding Sanshi walked into the company with questions in mind. After arriving at the reception room, within five minutes, a slightly plump professional woman entered.
Ding Sanshi immediately stood up and extended his hand towards Xu Xin. “Hello, Ms. Xu!”
Xu Xin noticed Ding Sanshi's hasty appearance—his pants had coffee stains and looked somewhat shabby. “Hello, Mr. Ding Sanshi, I didn’t expect you to be in such a hurry!”
Ding Sanshi followed Xu Xin’s gaze to his outfit and explained helplessly, “I was still working on the server at the maintenance company just before getting on the plane; I didn’t have time to change!”
“Got it. I wonder if you are prepared, Mr. Ding?” Xu Xin nodded in understanding.
Ding Sanshi explained his existing businesses: Mailbox, BBS, personal homepage, but he didn’t delve deeper into specifics, which somewhat conveyed his concerns to Xu Xin.
“Did Mr. Ding notice what’s happening at the entrance?” Xu Xin changed the subject without pressing further.
"Are you talking about changing the company name and LG?" Ding Sanshi was somewhat confused by Xu Xin's intentions.
Seeing that he was aware of this matter, Xu Xin continued, "Actually, Mr. Ding, you don't need to worry about our company's relationship with Zhengyi Technology. We will soon be changing our name to Panda Venture Capital, that's it!"
She casually picked up two panda dolls from the table and handed one to Ding Sanshi, smiling with a hint of amusement. "Although our company and Zhengyi Technology are under the same boss, they are two independent companies. Of course, there will be some cooperation, but you don't need to worry about whether we might be competitors trying to acquire each other indirectly. I guess you've been thinking that way all along, right?"
Ding Sanshi reluctantly accepted the overly cute panda doll; Xu Xin had indeed seen through his thoughts.
"Additionally," Xu Xin continued to explain, "Zhengyi Technology has its own investment department, while Panda Venture Capital, as the name suggests, is a dedicated investment company. So you can proceed with your plans!"
"To be honest, I do have an idea for developing a Portal website..." Once his reservations were gone, Ding Sanshi opened up. Although it was just an idea, the plan had already taken shape in his mind with a general outline.
The more Xu Xin listened, the more surprised she became. Zhengyi Technology was an advanced enterprise because of people like Jiang Yizhou who had forward-thinking ideas and the technical support from the U.S., which made it so mature.
She hadn't encountered many companies in China with Internet thinking; even those imitating mature foreign mechanisms were few. Therefore, meeting someone who surprised her like this naturally made her eager to invest.
"How much money do you think you'll need, and what percentage of equity are you willing to give up?" Xu Xin was also somewhat cautious. After all, this was her first time making decisions on her own under Jiang Yizhou's leadership. If the project didn't yield good results after investing money, it would be quite disappointing given Jiang Yizhou's trust in her.
