Chapter 48 A9's Troubles

Zhang Zhe hadn't even started his broadcast yet when his mother started knocking on the door:

"Son, have you looked at the information on all these girls? Is there one you particularly like?"

“Your dad and I quickly scanned through them, and we agreed with each one.”

“Your agreement is useless.” Zhang Zhe stretched with a smile: “Your sons have limited energy, so pick three out first.”

"My limit is three at the same time; any more than that and I'm afraid it will cause channel conflicts."

"Huh? How are we supposed to choose?" Zhang's father complained from outside. "Can't you choose yourself, so you're just dumping it on us?"

"Dad, you know too much."

"If you can't pick one, just put them in order, and I'll go by the numbers." Zhang Zhe had already come up with a plan: "Those who think they have the best chance should be put at the front, otherwise someone else might have already chosen them."

"Alright, let's sort them first."

"Come on, come on, didn't you hear what our son said?"

Hearing his mother urging his father to come back to the living room, Zhang Zhe put on his headphones and prepared to start his live stream.

This time, we booked Grandma Xu's number.

Actually, he should be called Boss Xu now, because Zhang Zhe is just a paid employee, but his salary is low and he can quit at any time.

Hello, everyone, good evening.

“Some viewers probably saw me yesterday. I went on a blind date with Teacher Xu, but I haven’t found the right person yet, so I’m back.”

"This time, we're not only doing blind dates, but also marriage counseling."

[Wow, has this been officially hired? They've started helping Teacher Xu with live streams?]

I suspected your visit yesterday was scripted, and it turned out to be just setup.

[Teacher Zhang, you're really not married? You can be a matchmaker even if you're not married?]

"Don't call me teacher, just call me Brother Zhang."

"Or if you have an older sister, you can call her Xiao Zhang, it's up to you."

"I am indeed not married, but I have extensive experience in live-streaming matchmaking on other platforms, so you can completely trust me."

"Otherwise, Teacher Xu wouldn't have asked me to come, would she?"

Before coming, Zhang Zhe had already communicated with Grandma Xu, and the old lady told him not to worry about not having an audience to connect with.

Firstly, it has Teacher Xu's prestigious reputation;
Secondly, if those who sell health products can fool people, how could no one believe Zhang Zhe, a respectable matchmaker?

However, it turns out that Zhang Zhe and his team were perhaps too optimistic.

There were indeed more than 2000 viewers, and the comments section was buzzing with discussion, but it seemed that no girl was willing to be the first to try something new.

Zhang Zhe could only chat with the comments section and wait calmly.

"Oh ho, someone's here. Welcome, Mr. She?"

Are you the eldest brother?

Zhang Zhe answered the call with some skepticism.

This is Little Red Book. If someone refers to themselves as "Mr.", it doesn't necessarily mean they are male.

"No, no, no, Brother Zhang, you're the older brother."

"I'm the little brother."

"Haha, okay, bro." Although Zhang Zhe was a little disappointed that it wasn't a girl connecting with him, his immediate priority was to keep the live stream from going cold: "Are you here to ask about marriage issues?"

"Well, yes and no."

"I don't know which category I fall into. How about I introduce myself first?"

“Sure.” Zhang Zhe turned around and pulled over the whiteboard he had just bought that day: “You tell me, and I’ll write.”

"age?"

"Born after 00, 25 years old."

"Three-dimensional?"

"I don't know, Brother Zhang, I'm a man."

"Sorry, I made a mistake. What about height, weight, and looks?"

"I am 175 cm tall and weigh 75 kg. I would rate my looks as a 5 out of 10, because I take care of myself regularly."

"Oh?" Zhang Zhe circled the word "maintenance".

My brother's voice sounds very magnetic. If he takes good care of himself, he's either in a profession that relies on his looks, or he has the money and time to go for beauty treatments. Most guys don't care about their looks after puberty.

"What about your academic qualifications?"

"I have a master's degree from a top 3 university, but I won't say which one to avoid being exposed."

"Okay, there's one last thing left: family assets."

"My family is probably worth A9.3. With real estate, factories, and savings, we definitely have over 3 million."

This is the third A9 I've seen on Xiaohongshu this month.

Online, everyone's talking about A9, but in reality, there aren't even any A7s.

[Why does he seem like the kind of person who's pretending to be rich?]

[Rich guy, 50 RMB, let's see your strength]

"Really an A9?" Zhang Zhe waved his hand and said, "I don't mean to doubt you, it's just that I'm not very knowledgeable. Could you send me some screenshots of your bank account?"

"Sure, I'll message you privately?"

"OK." Zhang Zhe felt that this older brother had arrived at just the right time; tonight's live stream depended on him getting off to a good start.

There's a guy named A9 watching the live stream, and he's looking for a partner. That alone should attract girls to join the chat, right?
Therefore, it would be best to verify this asset.

"Everyone, wait a minute, let me see if this guy really has an A9."

It took Zhang Zhe about three minutes to receive various screenshots from his older brother, including his bank card balance, Yu'ebao (Alipay's money market fund), and Eastmoney's portfolio page, etc.

Based on the situation of these apps, it's really hard to find any faults.

That's all Zhang Zhe can do. Even offline blind dates can be faked. Since the other party cooperated with him so readily to verify his identity and didn't give anything away, Zhang Zhe assumed he was a genuine A9.

Do people with a few small goals need to go on blind dates?

"The viewers in the live chat don't need to doubt it anymore, this guy is really A9, he has tens of millions in the stock market."

"But I'm a little curious."

"A rich guy like you, do you ever lack women?" Zhang Zhe scratched his head, puzzled, and looked at the camera, asking, "Shouldn't people like you have arranged marriages between families?"

“I’m not that rich. What you’re talking about, Brother Zhang, is probably A10.” The boy chuckled. “My family earns all the money. It has nothing to do with me. I only make a little over 2 a month. The money in the stock market is managed by my grandfather. I can’t use it all.”

Are you an only child?

"um, yes."

“There’s no difference,” Zhang Zhe analyzed. “In the matchmaking market, the family property of an only child is generally assumed to belong to him personally.”

“A typical only child might have some burden of supporting their parents in old age, but with your wealth, there’s nothing to worry about.”

I don't believe he lacks women; he doesn't sound like an honest man.

How many of the wealthy are honest?

The fact that he came for marriage counseling indicates that what he lacks is a marriage partner, not just a romantic partner.

The comments section is always full of the worst possible malice when it comes to speculating about the rich.

Zhang Zhe was different; he only resented that he wasn't the one with money, but he didn't harbor any animosity towards the wealthy themselves.

What is your problem now?

"Is it because you've been too promiscuous and have a bad reputation in your circle that your parents and friends aren't introducing you to girlfriends?"

"No, that's not true." The boy denied, "Actually, I'm the kind of person who's a bit of a romantic. I've only had one relationship since college, so I don't really know what kind of person I'm looking for."

“My parents hope that I can have a free-choice relationship because they met when they were in school, got married after graduation, and then started a business together. So they also hope that my marriage will be based on love.”

"But how should I put it, I'm just unlucky, I always attract some weird girls."

"How strange is it?" Zhang Zhe suddenly became interested.

He had heard that rich men like Xiao Wang would have girls send him nude photos via private message, hoping to be chosen by him.

Unfortunately, after Xiao Wang downgraded his spending, Zhang Zhe never heard of the extravagant lifestyle of wealthy second-generation heirs again.

The guy on the live stream suddenly said this.

Zhang Zhe felt he was gaining more knowledge and experience.

"Most of the girls I've met aren't ideal; they seem to be after my money."

"Almost all of them have boyfriends, and I've even been cheated on..."

"Huh?" Zhang Zhe felt like he couldn't understand Chinese: "The girl who contacted you has a boyfriend. So you were cheated on? You must have made a mistake."
