The story of Rose starts with being a brother

Chapter 129 If there is a recipe, how can we create a village?

Chapter 129 If there is a recipe, how can we create a village?
Late at night, Fang Xiewen tossed and turned in his bed in the rental house, thinking about the scene he had just seen outside the cafe.

Work was not busy today and there was no need to work overtime, so Fang Xiewen came to school after get off work early.

He knew that sometimes after class in the afternoon, Huang would not rush home, but would choose to stay in school for a while longer.

So during this period of time, as long as he was not working overtime, he would go to school when he had free time.

Sure enough, he met Huang Xuemei at school several times, and the two of them could chat for a while like this.

He didn't go out of his way to have awkward conversations with Huang every time. Sometimes he went back to school under the pretext of playing basketball, and sometimes he went back just to relax. As a graduating student, it was normal for him to go back to school to relax and replenish his energy after a hard time at work.

Sometimes he would even seek out Huang for advice on art.

In response to Huang Xuemei’s question, he explained that he had started learning this knowledge at the beginning, and he couldn’t give up just after studying for a short time!
Fang Xiewen is not the kind of person who gets excited after only three minutes!

So, with this opportunity he created, even though it has been almost a year since graduation, the friendship between him and Huang Yimei has not faded.

Fang Xieben thought that if he continued like this, the three-year plan he had set would be successful.

The reason why it was three years was because Huang Xuemei would have graduated by then, and his own salary would be able to be raised to a higher level.

Fang Xiewen has performed very well in the company. Not only was he promoted to a full-time employee ahead of schedule, but last Monday, the department manager Jason patted him on the shoulder and said that he was very optimistic about him and would promote him to team leader by the end of this year or next year.

Fang Xiewen was very excited and thrilled. That week, he stayed in the company until 10 o'clock every night just to show that he would live up to his boss' expectations.

For this reason, he did not come to school last week to "accidentally meet" Huang.

Today is Wednesday, and he stayed in the company very late in the first two days of this week.

Today's work was indeed temporarily finished, and the product side had not had time to raise any requirements, so he left work on time and came to school to try to see Huang Xuemei.

As a result, he saw the girl he wanted to see the most, Huang Xuemei, and the person he least wanted to see, Zhuang Guodong, sitting together and chatting and laughing.

Fang Xiewen couldn't describe how he felt at that moment. It hurt, so much!
Maybe, he shouldn't have come to the cafe, shouldn't have come to school, shouldn't have left work on time.

If I continue to stay in the company tonight, I may just feel a little tired physically, but my heart will be warm in anticipation of getting a promotion, a raise, marrying Huang Xuemei and reaching the peak of my life.

He would never be like he is now, tossing and turning in his bed in the rental house, unable to fall asleep.

Zhuang Guodong is back!
Zhuang Guodong looks more pretentious now, but is his career doing better?
Xuemei Huang was so happy chatting with him, was she trying to rekindle their past relationship?

Am I going to lose to Zhuang Guodong?
Fang Xiewen thought a lot, and at this moment, he deeply realized that if he continued to work step by step like now, by the time he could really earn a million yuan a year, Huang Xuemei and Zhuang Guodong’s children might already be around!
I may have a second and third child!
Fang Xiewen, who was already self-deprecating and internally frustrated, had finally built up some confidence through work, but when he saw Zhuang Guodong again, his confidence was suddenly reduced to his original state!
Since Fang was born, why did Zhuang exist?
Fang Xiewen was lying on the bed. In the dark night, his eyes were as big as bells.

I thought a lot in my mind, thinking about this and that, and finally pointed to one thing -

I want to start a business!

If you can’t follow the routine of getting promoted and getting a raise so that you can marry Huang Xuemei and become the CEO and reach the peak of your life, then you should become the CEO first and then marry Huang Xuemei and reach the peak of your life!

The more Fang Xiewen thought about it, the more he felt that this was the only way he had left.

If his business is successful, he will no longer be afraid of Zhuang Guodong. If his business is successful, he will never feel inferior in front of Xuemei Huang again!

But... starting a business requires money.

Compared with the original drama, Fang Xiewen is actually a little richer now.

In the original drama, although Fang Xiewen was already a team leader of the company when he started his business, and that was in 2006, his salary was higher than it is now.

But at that time, Fang Xiewen first spent all his previous savings on renting a house, and then when he was together with Huang Yime, he was basically responsible for all the expenses.

For a male chauvinist like Fang Xiewen, spending his girlfriend's money on daily expenses is simply a slap in his face.

So when he resigned from the company, he was penniless and felt so inferior that he ran home in the rain to submit his resignation to Huang Yimei.

Afterwards, Huang Yimei took out the money she had saved while working at Qing Ting and gave it to him as start-up capital, and she persuaded him for a long time before he accepted it.

It is worth mentioning here that in the original drama, Fang Xiewen's resignation was a trap set by his immediate superior. Because Fang Xiewen was indeed very outstanding at the time, the department manager Jason was afraid that Fang Xiewen would threaten him, so he used some means to force Fang Xiewen to resign.

Jason tampered with the data burned by Xiao Zhou, a team member under Fang Xiewen, causing losses to the client company. When the company held him accountable, Fang Xiewen, as the team leader, took the responsibility and resigned voluntarily.

It's not that Fang Xiewen was just taking responsibility for others out of loyalty, but he had already checked the data on the CD that Xiao Zhou had burned in this accident and was sure that there was no problem. Even if he didn't resign voluntarily in the end, he would probably have no hope of promotion for at least one or two years.

It can only be said that he was the original target of the department manager Jason, and Xiao Zhou's dismissal was just a byproduct. It was a pleasant surprise that Fang Xiewen took the responsibility and resigned on his own initiative.

But at least at this time, Fang Xiewen was still extremely humane and full of personal charm, and it had nothing to do with money.

But now, Fang Xiewen is eager to start a business again, and the issue of money is a huge problem.

Although he is richer than he is in the original drama, after deducting rent, utilities, and daily expenses of living frugally, the startup capital he can currently come up with is less than 100,000 yuan.

After thinking for a long time, Fang Xiewen decided to ask for help.

In addition to Xuemei Huang, he has another friend in Shanghai, his college roommate - Lin Hao.

Even though it was late at night, Fang Xiewen called directly.

"Haozi, I want to quit my job and start my own business!"

"what?"

Lin Hao was woken up by a phone call late at night and before he could scold Xie Wen, he heard such shocking news.

Next, Fang Xiewen began to talk to Lin Hao about his past ideals and future ambitions. In short, after the conversation, Lin Hao only had three words:
"Then do it!"

The passion of young people is so simple. As roommates, they all know each other's abilities and have often talked about their ambitions after graduation after lights out.

Now that Fang Xiewen took the initiative, Lin Hao agreed without hesitation.

Just like in the original drama, Fang Xiewen, who had nothing, also brought Lin Hao to start a business with him.

At that time, Fang Xiewen, Lin Hao, and Xiao Zhou who later resigned, together with Huang Yimei who provided the start-up capital, started from a small workshop and built a large company with a valuation of tens of millions.

This is the embodiment of their passion, friendship and ability.

It can be said to be high-spirited.

As for the ending where Lin Hao later resigned in anger because he didn't want to sell the company and disagreed with Fang Xiewen's ideas, and they parted ways from then on...

As a novel that is now very popular on the Internet says:

Didn't the person who was trying to save him even though he was carrying twelve knives end up turning his swords against him?
……

Fang Xiewen did what he said, and his resignation letter was placed on the desk of department manager Jason the next day.

This made Jason stunned. Wasn't he just making empty promises to him?
Resigning now?

Haven’t you heard that those born in the 80s are coming to clean up the workplace?

At this time, Fang Xiewen smiled and said, "The world is so big, I want to go see it."

Well, this sentence that has been circulating on the Internet recently has become a common reason for many young people to quit their jobs.

In response, Johnson tried to persuade him to stay, but eventually he completed the handover procedures for him.

There is no application for resignation, only notification.

After Fang Xiewen resigned, Lin Hao also completed the resignation process. The two of them pooled their money together and had just over 100,000 yuan, which was enough for the initial start.

Lin Hao is a native of Shanghai. He was the one who introduced Fang Xiewen to the tutoring job. He is not from a wealthy family, but he has enough food and clothing.

However, starting a business is not something you can simply do by taking money from home and investing it into the company. Who has more money, who has less money, who is in charge and who is the subordinate, and who to listen to at critical moments, all these need to be decided in advance.

Besides, Lin Hao couldn't come up with much money. The only two or three thousand he had was what he saved after graduation.

After they had money, they had to rent a venue, rent computers, etc. As for manpower, they both had master's degrees in computer science from Fudan University, so the two of them were enough in the early stages.

During this period, Lin Hao also asked Fang Xiewen whether he worked so hard for Xuemei Huang. After all, he was not blind, and he knew that the other party rejected Hu Lin and kept sticking to Xuemei Huang.

Fang Xiewen immediately denied that he started a business for his dream, but after all, he was his roommate. Finally, after Lin Hao's repeated questioning and torture, he finally admitted that he started a business partly for Huang Xuemei.

Lin Hao didn’t think there was anything wrong with this. Building an empire for a beauty has always been a good story throughout history!

When men are quiet, they talk about dreams, history, and the world. But when they are pursuing their dreams, they often talk about women.

……

Fang Xiewen's vigorous entrepreneurial behavior was eventually known to Huang Yimei.

There is no other way. Tens of thousands of dollars won’t last long. Fang Xiewen and Lin Hao have been running around for a while, but the money is only enough to lay a rough framework in the early stage.

Starting an IT business is not as simple as finding a room, taking two computers and typing code.

Fang Xiewen’s dream is to develop a software that everyone can use. Although it currently only exists in theory, the initial investment in starting a business is not small.

Nowadays, starting a business in Shanghai requires money everywhere, apart from daily expenses such as studio rent, water and electricity, food and drink, office equipment such as computers, Internet broadband, paid-in company funds, document registration, etc.

Unlike 20 years later, a simple app can be made with as little as 5,000 yuan. Well, in the original drama, Huang Yimei not only gave her own savings to Fang Xie Wen Chuangye, but also went home to find her brother Huang Zhenhua to write an IOU and lend money to Fang Xie Wen Chuangye.

So in the end there was no other choice. Lin Hao discussed with Fang Xiewen for a long time and finally decided to seek help from Huang Xuemei.

It can not only solve the urgent problem, but also help brothers.

Fang Xiewen originally refused to agree, but Lin Hao convinced him with just one sentence.

"Don't you want Huang Xuemei to be tied to you?"

At this moment, Fang Xiewen, who had no way out, had no choice but to agree, as if a demon had grown in his heart.

He is no longer able to compete with Zhuang Guodong. Instead of just watching Xuemei Huang and Zhuang Guodong get together, he might as well give it one last try.

So when Huang Yimei looked at the project plan in front of her, as well as Fang Xiewen and Lin Hao who had disappeared for a while, her face was full of surprise.

Sitting in front of Xuemei Huang, Fang Xiewen couldn't explain why he was short of money. He could only talk about the progress of his project and his future ambitions.

As for the lack of money...in the end, it was Lin Hao who took the initiative to raise the company's current difficulties and sought investment from Huang Xuemei.

……

Red Leaf Capital, in Huang Zhenhua’s office.

He looked at the girl in front of him in surprise and asked, "Investment? Fang Xiewen's business?"

Huang Yimei nodded. She was not a fool. Since she and Fang Xiewen were not in a relationship as in the original drama, she would not be so foolish as to rush to take the money, even though she now had a considerable amount of funds in her own piggy bank.

Friends are friends, interests are interests. Since they are not lovers, they naturally don’t want their friendship to be destroyed by money.

As for the question of whether she could invest, she naturally had to seek help from her brother, after all, he was a professional.

Huang Zhenhua held the project plan in his hand and nodded after listening to everything his sister had to say.
"Rose, I can't give you an answer to this matter until tomorrow."

After seeing that his sister agreed, he smiled and said:
"Rose, what kind of person do you think Fang Xiewen is? Don't think too much. I'm an investor. The project is important, but the investee and the team are even more important. I need to hear your thoughts first."

Huang Yimei hesitated for a moment before saying:

"Mr. Fang is modest and eager to learn, enthusiastic and perseverant, serious about his work, and friendly."

"Gone?"

"Anything else?"

Huang Yimei looked at her brother in confusion.

Huang Zhenhua smiled and said that what his sister mentioned were personal qualities, not necessarily the qualities that an entrepreneur must have.

The qualities of Internet entrepreneurs these days are not like the stereotypes created by street literature such as being thick-skinned, ruthless, etc. that the public expects businessmen to be.

The advantages that my sister just mentioned are of course important, but she did not mention Fang Xiewen’s other abilities.

For example, he is now passionate and energetic, loyal and righteous, has vision and ability, and other seemingly ridiculous but very important advantages.

But it’s normal for my sister to say that, after all, that’s how Fang Xiewen behaved in front of her before.

Huang Zhenhua shook his head without further explanation and said:

"Rose, why do you think Fang Xiewen started his own business?"

Huang Yimei thought for a moment and said, "For money. He also said it was for his dream."

"Not for you?"

Huang Yimei looked a little uncomfortable with her brother's words. Of course she could see that.

Seeing that his sister didn't say anything, Huang Zhenhua didn't continue to mention this point, and asked again:
"Rose, which one do you think Fang Xiewen values ​​more, you, money, or dreams?"

"..."

Huang Yimei looked even more uncomfortable. Why was he mentioning herself?
"I don't know, and I don't want to know. Besides, money and dreams don't conflict. I just want to help out of friendship."

After saying that, Huang Yimei left the office directly.

After his sister left, Huang Zhenhua sent her a message.

Bitch Brother: You will know the answer soon.

Huang Zhenhua put away his phone and stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window to think for a while. He would definitely invest in Fang Xiewen's project. Judging from the objective performance of the original drama, this project can make money and is a high-quality project. There is no need for him to go against the money.

He was also not interested in any cause targeting Fang Xiewen. The only real villain in the original drama was Su's father, and the rest of the clowns were just the struggles of the lower-class people.

What's more, it is extremely difficult for Fang Xiewen to marry his sister now, and he did not deliberately hinder him. Zhuang Guodong, Su Gengsheng and others are the insurmountable mountains for him.

The only problem now is how to vote and who will vote.

Moreover, he was somewhat curious whether Fang Xiewen would still go down the path of a dictator even if he was not with his sister.

Will he betray Lin Hao and the founding fathers who came after him?

In fact, according to common sense, investment companies will be extremely cautious about entrepreneurs who break up with the entrepreneurial team and abandon their initial partners for the sake of immediate interests.

Because in a sense, the investor will also be one of his partners.

However, Huang Zhenhua is not worried about this. If Fang Xiewen is brave enough to do this, he can kick him out.

It is not uncommon for investment companies to kick out the founders of project companies.

Huang Zhenhua thought about it and felt that this project could not only make money but also allow him to conduct a small test of human nature, so it was quite cost-effective.

Thinking of this, I made a phone call using the landline on my desk.

One minute later.

"Dong dong dong."

"Enter!"

"Boss, are you looking for me?"

"I have a project plan here. Take it and have a look. You may need to follow up later."

"I?"

Hu Lin looked at her boss Huang Zhenhua in astonishment. She came here for an internship in her second year of graduate school. Logically, her internship period should have ended long ago, but because the company was sometimes short of people, after discussing with her, her internship was directly converted to a probationary period.

I will start working directly after graduation this year, but I haven't graduated yet!
Hu Lin didn't have much to be nostalgic about in school anyway. She had almost finished her graduation thesis, and her favorite senior brother Fang had already rejected her.

Well, she just recently found out that this boss was actually the brother of her former love rival.

She wants to leave but can't bear to give up her job and salary here. How generous of her!

Later, Huang Zhenhua talked to her and told her that there was actually nothing going on between his sister and Fang Xiewen.

This made Hu Lin feel even more complicated.

She couldn't catch up with Senior Brother Fang, and Senior Brother Fang couldn't catch up with Huang Yimei...

It's a retaliation.

She decided to continue working here. As a native of Shanghai, she liked investment banking jobs and was glad that she had accidentally applied for an internship position here.

But now, hearing that her boss wanted her to follow up on a project specifically, she, who has been working as an assistant in the investment banking department, felt both excited and nervous.

Huang Zhenhua smiled and nodded:
"Relax, I chose you because I trust you."

Well, there are other reasons for my bad taste. I didn’t expect that the random move I made at the time would be of such great use now.

"Thank you, Boss! I will not let you down!"

I have to say that these days, employees love to be promised by their bosses. A pat on the shoulder and a few words of encouragement will make them feel like they have been injected with chicken blood.

Huang Zhenhua nodded with satisfaction, and then smiled and said:

"Don't be too happy yet, take a look at this plan first."

Then he handed the project plan in his hand to Hu Lin.

As soon as Hu Lin saw the first page of the plan, his face changed.

The person in charge listed on the first page of this project plan was none other than Senior Brother Fang, whom she had been thinking about the whole time!
