During the final week of the sester, not only was Lin Zixuan incredibly busy, but Zhang Yu was also extrely busy.
When she took on the project, she thought it wouldn’t be a big deal, this kind of task should be a piece of cake.
What she didn’t expect was that as progress was made, she discovered it was a huge pit. The data provided by the client had issues. In her view, there was really no need for this IPO to proceed.
If the initial data was problematic, one could imagine that the real situation wouldn’t be good. The investnt bank then said that the party did not verify the data when organizing it and only sent over updated data.
Zhang Yu looked at the updated data and compared it with the data previously provided. To be honest, she had doubts before; now many companies are rushing to get listed on the startup board, which is relatively easier for an IPO.
But it’s not to say there are no requirents; many aspects of the company have requirents. And before a company goes public, shouldn’t it be very cautious and ticulous in its preparations?
How could it still be such a hassle? Previously, when they went to the client to verify data, they would check even the smallest data multiple tis just to avoid any mistakes.
But the other company wasn’t attentive, and surprisingly, the investnt bank wasn’t either. Zhang Yu really didn’t know what to say.
Looking at the data that she didn’t know how many tis it had been revised, Zhang Yu really wanted to curse.
One or two tis can be attributed to carelessness and inattentiveness, but the interrelation of these data shouldn’t be that poor.
If not for her rich experience, and being hands-on with many projects at her previous job, with her good mory, Zhang Yu could guarantee this ti she would definitely fall into the trap.
Fall into a trap? Zhang Yu was just thinking casually, but now when she thought of this word, her eyes suddenly lit up, her body straightened, "Yeah, why do I feel there’s sothing wrong with this data."
"Thinking about it now, it feels like a big trap." Zhang Yu had collaborated with this investnt bank before; all the data handover went smoothly, the coordinating staff were easy to work with, and paynts were quick, so she didn’t need to chase them. Overall, they were really a good partner.
She didn’t think too much about this cooperation, but now, with doubts in her mind, she had thoughts about many things she hadn’t paid much attention to before.
This project was said to be urgent, but according to the data, there really wasn’t a need to rush to complete it now. It always felt like the other party intended to keep her busy at this stage.
But why did they want to keep her so busy? To make her fail the exams? Failure in exams would certainly be bad news, but for soone like her who wasn’t relying on a degree for a promotion, raise, or job change, it really wasn’t that important.
The reason Zhang Yu held herself to high standards was that since she was already studying, she ought to set high standards for herself and strive to achieve good results,
Initially, she hadn’t wanted to take it on, since it was exam week. But she had no choice—the compensation they offered really made it hard for her to ignore.
Is there sothing wrong with this project? Does the company really not et the listing requirents? But if it doesn’t et the requirents, there’s really no need to force a listing; otherwise, the relevant authorities will also block it in the final review.
Whether the company can successfully go public or not, so expenses still need to be incurred.
For a large company, these costs won’t have a big impact and won’t cause significant harm to the company.
But the problem is this company’s situation isn’t great; funds are still relatively tight. In Zhang Yu’s view, going public is just a way to raise money, and the founder will quickly cash out.
Drinking red wine and looking out at the night view, even at midnight, the scenery was still beautiful.
Zhang Qiang woke up in the middle of the night and found the study light still on. Seeing Zhang Yu was there, he said, "Why aren’t you resting?"
Seeing it was Zhang Qiang, Zhang Yu quickly finished off her wine. Though her movents were swift, Zhang Qiang still noticed her drinking, which surprised him.
Normally, their daughter doesn’t drink unless she’s in a good mood or feeling down. Seeing her like this now, she was definitely not in a good mood.
To make their daughter feel down, it probably had sothing to do with the recent project she took on, "What’s wrong, is there a problem with the project you took on?"
Zhang Yu nodded, "I was just thinking a lot. I feel like this project I’m on might be a trap."
What? Zhang Qiang’s expression involuntarily turned tense when he heard this, "You an there’s a problem with this project?"
Zhang Yu nodded and briefly explained the situation. After listening, Zhang Qiang’s expression also beca serious.
Seeing the old man deep in thought, Zhang Yu quietly stood by, not daring to interrupt and risk disrupting his thoughts.
After thinking it over, Zhang Qiang said, "I also think there’s a problem here. I’ll find soone to look into it."
"Also, have Xie Zhen help you gather so information; he knows a lot of people." Although such shady dealings would only be known to a few, once soone knows, news might leak out.
They’re in Harbor City now, but even in the Mainland, if soone wanted to sche against you, problems might go unnoticed. You need soone well-inford and well-connected to investigate.
Zhang Yu nodded. Hearing the old man say that, she had a sudden realization about who she should approach for information.
After seeing Zhang Qiang off, Zhang Yu called Xie Zhen to ask if he knew anything about the situation.
Xie Zhen was coincidentally socializing outside with people when he heard his phone ring. Seeing it was Zhang Yu, he couldn’t help but be surprised, "Why call at this hour?"
As fellow workers in the financial industry, Xie Zhen truly admired Zhang Yu, who would rest by ten o’clock. Now it was already twelve, so why wasn’t she resting yet?
The friend next to him asked, "Who’s calling?"
"Let take this call." Xie Zhen avoided the topic and walked out of the private room to take the call on his phone.
The remaining people were surprised to see Xie Zhen stepping out with his phone, "Who’s calling?"
His childhood friend saw the caller ID just now and was quite surprised. He’d heard so rumors before and thought those people really had nothing better to do, spreading such rumors. If it were about a woman with a good background and figure, he might have believed it.
As soone who grew up with Xie Zhen, he knew sothing of his friend’s preferences in won. In short, he had high standards; otherwise, he wouldn’t be single without a steady girlfriend at his age.
Now that his career was on the rise even more, he was more popular, with countless girls after him.
"I don’t know." His friend picked up his wine glass. "You know he’s really busy now, unlike us."
"It’s probably business-related. Let’s not ntion it, let’s drink." His friend finished off his glass of wine.
The remaining people wanted to say sothing or try to find so information, but seeing his attitude, they knew it was impossible to get anything out. So what else could they do but finish their drinks?
