"If I rember correctly, Jiang Chen, you went to East Sea University, right?"
Old Min, who was sowhat puzzled, casually asked.
It’s not that he looked down on those who live off others.
Tis are progressing, in the past, n worked outside, won stayed ho, but tradition is not the truth.
In the past, due to the limitations of technology and lack of productivity, it was hard for won to be on par with n and earn money for the family. But now it’s different, productivity is beginning to overflow, jobs in society are diverse, earning money no longer strictly requires physical strength, and more and more won are starting to shine.
So.
What’s wrong with n staying ho and won working outside?
Old Min was rely curious and wanted to confirm.
"You have a good mory, Mr. Min."
"What was your major?"
Old Min subtly continued, step by step.
"Finance."
Jiang Chen was completely unaware he’d been tagged as a "househusband" and honestly answered the question.
"Finance? That’s an industry that really tests one’s capabilities and background."
Old Min sighed.
He knew Jiang Chen’s family background very well; there was no background, only back view.
Entering a good university is really just the beginning, degrees don’t equate to a bright future, at most it’s a ticket to the stars and the sea.
How far you can go after boarding the ship depends on everyone’s overall qualities.
And what are overall qualities?
That’s too complex.
It includes but isn’t limited to IQ, EQ, luck, and whether there’s external support and lift.
Keep in mind.
Even among one in ten thousand geniuses, there are tens of thousands nationwide.
Heroes are as nurous as fish crossing the river.
"Where are you working now? In the East Sea?"
Old Min continued probing.
"Um..."
Jiang Chen hadn’t finished speaking when Tong Dan interrupted, "President Jiang’s company is in the East Sea."
What?
Company?
Old Min, instinctively thinking it difficult for a poor family child to make it in the background-focused financial circle, was shocked and turned to look at his student.
"You an Jiang Chen started his own company?"
"Yes. Mr. Min, President Jiang should be one of the best students nurtured in the East. He started his business before graduating from university, do you know the virtual love ga? It was his startup project."
"What kind of ga?"
Old Min, with his old-fashioned slicked-back hair, was surely trendy, but not trendy enough to play mobile gas, let alone virtual love gas, which are "misleading the youth!"
Combating early campus romances was one of his work priorities.
"Pei Yunxi, Mr. Min must know, right?"
"Yes, I do."
Old Min nodded instinctively.
Pei Yunxi, who was that.
She was a household na, an A-list star.
She represented Eastern aesthetics.
She was a unique icon in the entertainnt circle.
She was the pride of Shen Zhou, breaking discrimination.
The appreciation of beauty knows no age.
"The virtual love ga is endorsed by Pei Yunxi, and it’s the first mobile ga she endorsed."
Tong Dan succinctly stated.
"Really?!"
Old Min’s eyes widened in disbelief.
He didn’t know much about love gas, but he knew celebrity endorsent fees were astronomical, especially for soone like Pei Yunxi.
The word entrepreneurship sounded easy, as if it just required having a hand, but where did the funds co from?
"Are you just teasing ?"
"How could I tease you? If you don’t believe , ask President Jiang."
Old Min’s gaze returned to the young man he had once controlled tightly.
"I was able to get Pei Yunxi to endorse it due to a stroke of luck. A younger female student I t at East Sea University happened to be Pei Yunxi’s cousin. Because of this connection, Pei Yunxi agreed to collaborate, and the endorsent fee was based on a revenue-sharing model."
Although Jiang Chen’s expression was very serious, it couldn’t be said he was talking nonsense, just half-truths.
Old Min suddenly understood, unable to resist sighing, "Jiang Chen, I didn’t expect you to be so lucky."
Tong Dan couldn’t help but nod.
She was also curious about how soone’s first bucket of gold was earned and why Pei Yunxi was moved, and now the mystery was solved.
To rationalize a big lie first requires addressing the initial point.
"So now, have you switched careers to gas?"
Old Min couldn’t help but be curious, while feeling sowhat apologetic.
Evidently, as a teacher, he had made the terrible mistake of judging based on appearances. Although he didn’t understand the mobile ga, with Pei Yunxi’s endorsent, one could easily imagine it must be imnsely popular.
Indeed.
Such a tenacious young man, how could he possibly live off of others?
"Gas are just one of President Jiang’s small businesses. Mr. Min, Fang Qing and I are now working for him."
Old Min was stunned again, his eyes wide open, "Didn’t you say you were working at an airline company?"
"Yes, for his airline company, Mr. Min. If you ever can’t get a ticket for travel, feel free to contact ."
Old Min was beyond shocked.
"Are you two teaming up to fool ?"
Tong Dan sighed, "Thirty years the river flows East, thirty years West, Mr. Min, don’t underestimate the youth."
Jiang Chen chuckled, "Mr. Min, don’t listen to her..."
Old Min imdiately said, "Tong Dan is joking, right?"
Jiang Chen did not speak again.
Old Min looked at Fang Qing, certain this student wouldn’t lie, "Is everything Tong Dan said true?"
Fang Qing nodded, "Yes. He’s now... quite successful."
Jiang Chen couldn’t help but touch his nose, unsure if he should feel proud or not.
Old Min was astonished, dazed, then bewildered, he looked at Jiang Chen for a long ti, until the shopkeeper brought the dishes, he smiled wryly, "Today really is a day to rember, it’s been a long ti since I received such a big surprise."
