Chapter 881: Chapter 560: I Advise You to Know Your Place_2
“Could he be planning to invest in this short video project?”
As soon as this thought arose, Shang Qi’s heart was in his throat, and he instantly panicked!
In 2015, although quite a few visionary people started venturing into the short video field, in the capital market, short video platforms were not exactly hot commodities.
A number of top-tier venture capital institutions were not optimistic about companies delving into short videos.
It was precisely because of this that, years later, the head of Red Mountain Capital frequently expressed to the public that overlooking TikTok and Zhang Yiming was one of the biggest mistakes of his life.
However, Shang Qi personally thought highly of the short video industry.
He never imagined that one day short video platforms would dominate major social platforms, he simply thought it was quite promising.
Moreover, this track wasn’t particularly crowded at the ti, and competition wasn’t as fierce as in the popular tracks.
At that ti, through Wen Ting, he learned that Cheng Zhu, a new rich in the capital circle, was getting into short videos. Her ex-husband worked for him, so Shang Qi wasn’t afraid at all.
What was there to fear about a re underwear seller and a re computer guy?
Social platforms are a ga of capital.
What’s more, my investnt in Paipai has already gained montum!
But if Bao Fan thinks highly of him, then that’s a different matter.
Bao Fan is soone with trendous personal ability and energy!
He alone has influenced half of today’s internet unicorn companies, and any project he gets involved in will gain unlimited support.
Not to ntion, even if there’s an issue, Bao Fan has the ability to resolve everything for you!
Yes, beyond the business world!
Outside the business world, it’s the sa!
Therefore, Shang Qi now feels overwheld just thinking about it.
“Is this kid so lucky to be valued by Boss Bao?”
Admittedly, Cheng Zhu is unique among the post-95 generation, and he’s doing well in his career now.
But this is Bao Fan!
At your current level, you still shouldn’t warrant his attention!
After hesitating for a while, Shang Qi asked, “Is Cheng Zhu looking for you to invest in this project?”
“Nothing like that!” Bao Fan imdiately saw through what Shang Qi was thinking and smiled as he patted Shang Qi’s shoulder.
This bald-headed man from Shanghai seed to enjoy patting people’s shoulders or placing his hand on their shoulders and then turning to look them in the eyes while speaking.
Upon hearing this, Shang Qi instantly breathed a sigh of relief, and the heavy stone hanging in his heart finally fell.
Unexpectedly, Bao Fan changed the subject in the next second.
“But now that you ntion it, it’s not impossible. A small investnt wouldn’t hurt.”
He withdrew his hand from the other’s shoulder, picked up the glass on the table, and gently swirled the ice in it.
This bald-headed man from Shanghai was currently focused on O2O, and wasn’t particularly interested in short videos at the mont.
But it’s always been like this in the investnt circle; so people invest in projects, while others invest in people.
He thought Cheng Zhu was decent, and investing a little in him shouldn’t be a problem!
This made Shang Qi’s heart imdiately hit rock bottom.
He didn’t think any young person in the world would refuse support from Bao Fan!
When Shang Qi sat back in his original spot, Wen Ting imdiately asked, “What happened?”
She and Shang Qi had been PY partners for so many years that they were very familiar with each other.
Others might not see anything, but she, this perceptive client, could instantly tell when Shang Qi had sothing on his mind.
“Bao Fan seems to think highly of Cheng Zhu,” Shang Qi said in a low voice.
“What?” Wen Ting was instantly shocked.
In the eyes of a finance woman of her level, Bao Fan was like a god, one of the pinnacles of the industry!
“Is my incompetent ex-husband’s young boss really that sought after?” Wen Ting was stunned.
With an arty, intellectual, and incredibly gentle deanor, she soon understood why Shang Qi seed so preoccupied.
“If Bao Fan does help, then my ex-husband’s project might really take off, and he could soar to great heights with it!” Wen Ting’s heart tightened.
She genuinely did not want him to do well.
After a while, Shang Qi gently patted her hand and said, “For now, nothing’s concrete yet, just keep an eye on it. Go drink so more with Xuu, with his limited drinking capacity, he’s easy for you to handle.”
“Alright.”
At the other end of the sofa, Wang Xin had been listening to the conversation between Bao Fan and Shang Qi, once again marveling at Cheng Zhu’s luck.
“When I started my venture back in school, I didn’t have such high-level support.”
“If my internet project back then had soone backing it, I definitely wouldn’t have sold it; I expect I could have sailed smoothly, it indeed makes one a bit envious,” Wang Xin mused.
Because all his plans had been seen through by others, coupled with his failure to entice Cheng Zhu earlier, he didn’t have a good impression of this young man.
But if in the end, they were on the sa boat, it wouldn’t matter, as he had demonstrated his value and ability.
“I hope you understand that knowing how to adapt is wise,” Old Wang thought to himself.
…
…
On the other side, when Cheng Zhu returned to Hang City, it was already late at night.
He had his driver, Little Wang, take him directly back to Xinhang Apartnt.
After entering the house, he placed his suitcase to the side, too lazy to unpack that night, and went straight into the master bathroom to wash up.
After washing up, he lay on the bed and video-chatted with his girlfriend for more than ten minutes.
