After The Vicious Cannon Fodder Was Reborn - Chapter 78

[Chapter 78]

Guo Yaning’s studio is too far from the Houhai Orphanage, and Tao Mu has no car. So Li Xiaozheng had to drive to pick up Tao Mu first, and then the two would go back together.

During the period, Tao Mu also called his little Qi’s father, and apologized for forgetting the agreed thing because he was busy with work. By the way, I brought a friend back for dinner. Because Li Xiaoqi was involved, Tao Mu put it on the public phone when he called.

The reason why Dean Tao suggested everyone go back to the orphanage to eat dumplings is to comfort Xiao Tao Mu. People around Tao Mu all know Tao Mu’s habit of forgetting to eat and sleep as soon as he starts working. If it was normal, he would definitely call to remind Tao Mu. But today’s situation is different. It would be a good thing for everyone if Tao Mu could forget about the bad news on the Internet because of his focus on work.

However, this habit of forgetting to eat after work must be criticized.

Li Xiaoqiang was driving beside him. It was already eight o’clock in the evening, missing the evening rush hour, and the vehicles were speeding on the streets. While driving, Li Xiaozheng peeked at Tao Mu from the corner of his eye. The colorful neon lights gathered bright spots of light, and the splendid night light reflected on Tao Mu’s face, making his outline more gentle and deep.

“Is Dean Tao the dean of the orphanage you stayed at?” Li Xiaoxiang never shy away from talking to Tao Mu, not because he didn’t care about Tao Mu’s mood. On the contrary, it is because he cares so much that he speaks out bluntly.

“I think this Dean Tao is a very amiable person.”

Tao Mu said with a smile: “Yes. The children in our orphanage like to call her Grandma Tao.”

“I heard about the Internet.” After turning off the steering wheel, he turned right along the driveway. After turning around, he continued, “You must be very unhappy.”

Tao Mu said nothing. He didn’t even know what to say.

“When you’re unhappy, you have to think about happy things. I have a gift for you.” Li Xiaozhen suddenly changed the subject and motioned Tao Mu to pick up the two contracts he had prepared by his lawyer: “Although it is A gift is actually a reward you deserve. Don’t blame me for borrowing flowers to offer Buddha.”

What’s the meaning?

Tao Mu opened the folder suspiciously, and his eyes narrowed – it turned out to be the contract for Tao Mu to become a partner of Xiaozheng Capital. It clearly stated that after Tao Mu became a partner of Xiao Heng Capital, he would get 5% of the shares. It is a technology investment.

“It’s too expensive.” Tao Mu frowned. The contract was not over, so he put it back: “Brother Li, you don’t need to do this.”

“I think it’s very necessary.” Because he wanted to chat, Li Xiaoxiang slowed down the car slightly. , said: “You should think about how much money you have made for Xiaoxiang Capital in the international futures market in the past six months before you quit. There is a schedule in the contract that records Xiaoxiang Capital’s return in the third and fourth quarters. Rate. We shorted oil in July. At that time, the price of oil was about 148M yuan per barrel. Now, the price of oil has fallen below 40M gold. That is to say, your participation has allowed Xiaozheng Capital to increase its assets in just half a year. Dozens of times increase. Now the entire Wall Street is looking for you, the chief analyst. Do you think I should start first and only tie you, a short-selling genius, to Xiaoqi Capital?”

Tao Mu Yue listened The more guilty. His family knows his own business, and he is not a stock market genius: “…I’m just lucky at best. Maybe I changed a field, or after a few years, I’m out of inspiration. There’s no way to accurately predict price movements. ”

In a word, Tao Mu admits that he is not a match. He originally agreed to Li Xiaozheng’s invitation to cooperate in order to make friends with future capital bosses, and by the way, let his first pot of gold flip a few more times in the futures market. But now that Li Xiaoxiang invited him to become a partner of Xiaoxiang Capital, Tao Mu was a little confused. He was worried that Li Xiaohe would find out that he was not a stock market genius after ten years, and he would become angry at that time. The two were afraid that they would not even have to be friends.

Speaking of business partners, when it comes to making money, it’s natural to say hello to me, hello to everyone, but when it comes to splitting money, it’s okay to do it once or twice, but it’s more frequent. In particular, Tao Mu will focus more on the entertainment industry and the financial market in the future. At best, he will make more money when the market is good. It’s not like now, staring at it all the time – such a black and white wheel, his body can’t stand it.

Li Xiaozhen now decides to be happy, and he may feel distressed about the generous share of the pen at that time. He would feel that Tao Mu didn’t do anything, or that he had limited energy in Xiaozheng Capital, but he still had to share such a large amount of money, and he felt unbalanced.

In his last life, Tao Mu had seen many partners and even relatives who became enemies with each other because of money, and he was never afraid to try to figure out people’s hearts from the worst angle. In order to avoid these bad things, he felt it was necessary to divide the camp in advance. Sometimes it’s more important to do a good job than to do a good job.

“Brother Li, don’t worry. I don’t know other people on Wall Street, and I can’t trust them. And I think the cooperation between us is very pleasant. Even after this incident, I will use some funds to maintain the normal operation of Feixun.com, and I will also I will keep the other half of the funds in Xiaozheng Capital, and I will take care of it for me. As for the financial market, no matter what you ask me, I will definitely know everything. But I will not put too much energy on it in the future. In the financial market. I am an actor after all. I will be filming in the future, I will set up my own studio, and possibly my own film and television company

. Li Xiaoxiang’s doubts: “As for the share, didn’t you hire me as your personal advisor and chief analyst? If you think my suggestion is not bad, you can reward me according to the income share of Xiaoxiang Capital analysts. Just like we I have done it before. I think this way of cooperation is very good.”

One cooperation is completed, one by one. Fair prices, no bullying.

“And I don’t think, Brother Li, you can’t attribute all the return on Xiaoxiang Capital’s soaring returns in the second half of the year to me. The best I can do is to help you with a few analysis reports. The specific trader is you and your team. Besides, even without me, you also decided to short oil. So my existence is not that important.”

“No. Your existence is very important.” Li Xiaoxiang ignored Tao Mu’s heart and lungs. After a long confession, he said very seriously: “I don’t know why you are so arrogant about yourself. The fact is that because of your existence, Xiaoxiang Capital’s return rate has been at least a dozen times more than I expected. This is all your credit, You deserve to be rewarded.”

Tao Mu smiled bitterly: “Didn’t I already get the return I deserve. The money I saved in Xiaoxiang Capital has multiplied dozens of times. And the income share I got is also very impressive. Add up There are also 200 million M gold, right? Converted to more than one billion Chinese coins. Just half a year ago, my principal was only tens of millions.”

“I said it. You won this.” Li Xiaohe suddenly shifted. Topic: “You were worried about the limited inspiration just now and thought that you might not be able to accurately predict the price trend of stocks or futures in the future. How long do you think your inspiration will last?”

Tao Mu thought for a while and felt that this kind of thing Can’t lie – ten years of rebirth, and of course his inspirational shelf life is also ten years. If he lied to fool Li Xiaozheng at this time, but he will open up and close the financial market accurately in the future, I am afraid that it will make Li Xiaozheng feel bitter. It also did not meet his original intention of befriending Li Xiaoqiang.

“About ten years.” Tao Mu hesitated for a while, but told the truth.

“That’s good. Our cooperative relationship will be changed to a ten-year term. Within ten years, you will be a partner of Xiao Heng Capital and enjoy your due 5% of the income. After ten years, we will take your The performance will then decide whether to continue the contract. During this period, all you need to do is to call me at least three times a week. Or meet once to discuss our various views on the financial market in detail.”

Li Xiaoxiang said concisely: “You wouldn’t refuse such a decision, would you?”

Tao Mu smiled bitterly and said frankly, “Brother Li, you don’t have to. We are friends. If you have anything to ask me, I will tell you everything. Xiao Heng Capital is your hard work, and I also have my own career. I think for the sake of our long-term friendship, it is best for us not to get too involved in each other’s careers.”

In Tao Mu’s view, a quick solution is The best state of cooperation.

“On the contrary.” Li Xiaozhen said, “I think friends should be open and honest and have clear interests. Your thoughts are actually easy to get wrong. Financial affairs, and therefore obtained huge profits, but refused to share it with you. It even delayed your own serious affairs. Would you still be as willing as you are now?”

Nonsense, this is the future capital boss. It’s too late to hug his thighs, how could he complain that the boss didn’t give him money.

Tao Mu’s two lifetimes of experience have made him accustomed to the action mode of giving first and then asking for it, especially when cooperating with big bosses, he would rather suffer a little loss in the early stage than make the other party feel bad about it. He has always been a man who would rather compromise in order to achieve his goals. No matter who he is working with, Tao Mu is used to letting the other party see the profit first and taste the sweetness first.

However, Li Xiaoxiang’s behavior was different from most of the people he had met. Li Xiaozheng studied abroad in country M for many years, and established his own career in the working atmosphere of Wall Street where he spends a lot of money and pays attention to money. He has become accustomed to the cooperation model of “how much you help me earn and I will give you back as much as you can”. He likes to deal with everything, including feelings, in a clear and organized manner. He knows even more what an inspired financial genius means to an ambitious financial institution on the rise – an invaluable treasure whose value cannot be calculated by simple addition and subtraction.

It’s not that 1 1=2, but a wonderful evolution of 1 1 being at least greater than one hundred. This time the performance in the international oil futures market has perfectly confirmed this.

Li Xiaohe knew Tao Mu’s abilities well, so he wouldn’t do the stupid thing of “exchanging friendship for benefits”. Not to mention that this kind of stupid behavior is not in line with his style of behavior, and he just doesn’t want to exchange his friendship with Tao Mu for benefits. Even huge profits were not enough to buy their friendship.

In other words, Li Xiaozhen clearly has the best of both worlds, not only to satisfy his appreciation and return to Tao Mu, but also to further win over Tao Mu and tie this little genius to Xiaozheng Capital. Why do you have to consume the friendship between the two and take the great risk to try the mode of getting along with each other.

“If you insist on not accepting this invitation and share out of love, then why would I be so embarrassed to ask you to discuss the financial market from time to time?” Some futures: “I’m embarrassed to always look for you, and I don’t dare to call you confidently when I encounter difficulties – after all, you just said that you will focus more on your acting career in the future. , you have to devote yourself to the entertainment industry and run your own business. Then when I call you, I have to consider whether you are free and will my call cause trouble to your work? Times If there are too many, it may delay our time to deal with our business. As time goes by, maybe our friendship will cool down as time goes by.”

Li Xiaozheng has a vicious eye, and he has long seen that Tao Mu wants to befriend him. thought. The direction of his persuasion immediately shifted from the etiquette talk to the long-term relationship between the two. The so-called attack on the heart, he felt that Tao Mu seemed to care more about the friendship between them –

this little discovery really made people happy.

Tao Mu found that his proud speech ability, which was able to fool investors and lame in front of Li Xiaoxiang, didn’t seem to work well. The future finance mogul seems to know the art of conversation better than he does. At least after this conversation, he actually felt that there was nothing wrong with what Li Xiaoqiang said. He really should have accepted this partner invitation and this lucrative revenue share.

“Maybe Li Ge, you’re right.” Tao Mu said so, suddenly feeling that his rejection just now seemed very hypocritical.

——It is estimated that Brother Li has already complained fiercely in his heart that he can’t understand clearly.

Tao Mu also ruthlessly reflected in his heart that he couldn’t help worrying about gains and losses every time he saw the big boss. I feel that I can’t go on like this anymore – after all, he is going to be a boss in the future.

Tao Mu had a shameless YY, and simply signed his name on the contract, and then accepted his contract.

Li Xiaohe was very pleased when he saw Tao Mu’s actions. While waiting for the red light, I couldn’t help but reached out and touched Tao Mu’s head, and said with a warm smile, “That’s good.”

Tao Mu was instantly stunned, and looked at Li Xiaoxiang in a daze, like an alpaca whose three views were greatly shocked.

Li Xiaozheng forcibly suppressed the corners of his mouth that were about to go upward, and pressed his claws on the steering wheel. Neither of them were talking, one focused on driving while the other silently looked out the car window. The atmosphere inside the car became inexplicably relaxed and warm.

When the two arrived at the orphanage, it was almost half past nine in the evening.

Director Tao and the children of the orphanage, as well as Liu Yao, Meng Qi, Gou Rixin, Qin Miaoru, Da Mao and Xiao Pang had already finished their dinner. Hearing the sound of a car at the door, a large number of people swarmed out. First of all, the low-key, luxurious and connotative Maybach that was parked in the alley flicked his eyes, and only then did he notice Tao Mu and Li Xiaoxiang who got off the bus.

The big hairy little fat man was shocked, and immediately thought of the time he ate in H Town, as if he was afraid of being dominated by the dull parents. I’m inexplicably happy in my heart – fortunately, they finished dinner at night, otherwise this meal would be really uneatable.

Liu Yao and Meng Qi also remembered Mr. Li, who spoke righteously during the out-of-court reconciliation, and immediately laughed: “It turned out to be Mr. Li. I told them, I don’t know what kind of friends Xiaomu will bring back.” They guessed before. All of them are Guo Yaning. After all, Tao Mu went to shoot the MV for Guo Yaning. A bunch of fans who had never seen A-list superstars in person were also excited for a while. Who would have thought that when Tao Mu came back, he didn’t bring that charming superstar with him, but brought with him a 1.9-meter tall man who looked very elite and sullen.

Really boring!

Qin Miaoru, who didn’t know Li Xiaohe’s identity, and the others pouted without a trace, and couldn’t hide their disappointment – of course, even if they knew Li Xiaohe’s identity, they would probably regret that the person Tao Mu brought back was not a big star.

Although in real life, the power of capital is much greater than that of stars. However, in the minds of ordinary people, it is estimated that the existence of stars is more eye-catching.

After all, the dazzling and dazzling star can wash their eyeballs, but the money in the capital pocket will not give them a dime.

A group of particularly realistic partners surrounded Tao Mu and his friends into the orphanage. Dean Tao went to order the dumplings himself and said with a smile, “Tonight’s dumplings are stuffed with leeks, shrimp, eggs, and green peppers, cabbage, and pork. I wonder if Mr. Li has any taboos?”

Li Xiaozheng glanced at Tao Mu. With a smile, he said, “I don’t have any taboos.”

Tao Mu said, “Dean, you should cook it in two pots. Brother Li may not eat leeks.” At least he and Li Xiaozheng had eaten several times without seeing him. Eat leeks.

Not only leeks, but also all the meaty ingredients such as onion, ginger, and garlic, Li Xiaoxiang didn’t eat much. But Li Xiaoheng eats garlic lobster and garlic scallops.

Therefore, Tao Mu deduces that Li Xiaozhen is not unable to eat these heavy-tasting ingredients, or maybe he just doesn’t like it.

But Tao Mu himself likes dumplings stuffed with chives and vegetables with minced garlic. Occasionally, when he goes out to barbecue, he will order two bunches of roasted garlic cloves. His extremely serious idol burden is always so unprincipled when it comes to eating and drinking.

This was also once spit out by Wen Bao and the others.

Thinking of this, Tao Mu was startled to realize that he forgot to call Wen Bao and the others back—in the afternoon, Tao Mu was busy taking pictures of Guo Yaning and muted the phone. Later, when I saw a series of missed calls, I adjusted the ringtone back, but I forgot to call it back.

Wen Bao and the others probably guessed that Tao Mu might be busy, so they didn’t call Tao Mu after that. It was actually delayed so late—

Tao Mu looked at the time, and it was already ten o’clock. I don’t know if the three roommates slept or not.

Tao Mu thought for a while, but still called Du Kang, who often stayed up late to play games. After less than two beeps, he was picked up: “Crooked, Xiao Mu? Where are you staying now? Do you need a few brothers to accompany you? Are you going? I’ll treat you.”

Du Kang was one of the four in their bedroom. The most deductible one. It would be a bloodbath to let him invite a guest. Before, in order to force him to entertain guests, Wen Bao and Chu Suian pressed people on the bed and tortured them to extract confessions, but it didn’t work. This time, Du Kang offered to offer a guest, apparently to comfort Tao Mu, the unfortunate one.

Tao Mu smiled slightly: “I’m fine. I’m eating dumplings at the orphanage. Would you like to come together?”

Today is Saturday, tomorrow is Sunday, and there are no classes anyway. Du Kang discussed it with the other two roommates: “Okay. Let’s go right now. We’ll stay at Grandpa Song’s house for the night. Shall we play mahjong all night?”

Tao Mu still smiles despite the fact that he will be shooting an MV for a big star tomorrow. He said, “Okay. Come here. Give me a call at the entrance of the alley, and I’ll pick you up.”

After hanging up, Tao Mu followed the missed call to Yun Yi, Long Tianao and others one by one. past. Yun Yi was on duty and couldn’t come, and the rest of the others, such as Long Tianao, loved to join in the fun. In the end, the more and more people gathered, it was time for a party.

But Tao Mu was probably the first to hold a dumpling party at the orphanage.
