491: Chapter 78: Werewolves and Vampires (Part 1) 491: Chapter 78: Werewolves and Vampires (Part 1) “I’ll speak to CEO Sun clearly,” he said.
“He will limit how deeply you get involved, Xiao Zhao.
This is a big adventure.”
“Are you ready to face the challenges, my heroine?”
CEO Cheng was hunched over his desk, dealing with emails while giving Xiao Zhao a psychological massage.
With natural traffic entries like Shanhaiguan and MAS, plus partners like Dongxin and Gru—CEO Cheng was looking for opportunities to start a cross-border e-comrce platform in the future.
Xiao Zhao would first have a go at those pyramid-like online shopping platforms, and later, when CEO Cheng launched his cross-border platform, she could beco a huge controversial talking point.
Plan ahead, and you’ll be standing firm; don’t, and you’ll fail.
Cheng Daqi always had the nature to think multiple steps ahead.
“Daqi, have they actually broken the law?”
Zhao Hongjin genuinely couldn’t understand—if “Ho Sweet Ho” had broken the law, why were they still in operation?
If they hadn’t broken the law, why did their suspicious agency model seem so much like a pyramid sche?
“Hard to say, there’s a blurry line.
The law contains baseline provisions and often lacks clear or strict interpretations on many details.
But their behavior of tricking mothers into paying deposits definitely has issues, and that line they use for intelligence screening, too…”
“Bro, stop there, I know I did sothing stupid, but I’ve corrected it now, right?”
The girl with the peach blossom eyes looked pitifully at her overbearing boss; she didn’t enjoy the feeling of being hung up and beaten.
“I want you to understand that the platform must be user-oriented, and only those that truly provide users with a good shopping experience will win their favor.
The kind of platform that plays house with the rchants, that fantasy doesn’t match reality.
So even if ‘Ho Sweet Ho’ hasn’t done anything illegal, just their unethical approach ans they are bound to collapse sooner or later.
Xiao Zhao, I support you doing this, for the rights of won.”
CEO Cheng’s explanation was straightforward, and the smart Xiao Zhao quickly absorbed it.
It’s just that, when it cos to doing sothing stupid, it doesn’t really matter if the person involved isn’t aware at the ti.
But in hindsight, it often becos more and more uncomfortable.
Especially for Xiao Zhao, who was a girl of high self-esteem—just thinking that she believed such nonsense made her toes curl inside her shoes.
Too embarrassing.
“Bro, go back to work.
I’ve understood, no need to explain any further.”
Bro, stop reading into it!
I, Xiao Zhao, thinking about having believed those words, just want to die of embarrassnt.
“Have you thought about what you want to do after graduation?”
Without bringing up the previous topic, CEO Cheng casually asked while sitting behind his computer.
The two of them were good friends, and their current state of conversation was like that between friends; Zhao Hongjin answered with a smile.
“I used to want to work in charity or non-profit organizations, but you’ve told before about the reality of non-profits.
But that’s not important.
Maybe it’s your influence; I’m getting a clearer and clearer sense of what ‘traffic’ ans.
Traffic is the influence the internet has given that I wouldn’t have had otherwise, and I should use this influence to do sothing aningful.”
As the girl spoke about her future, her ideas were so plentiful they seed uncontrollable, her face filled with longing and anticipation.
“Sothing aningful?
Like what?” CEO Cheng, looking taken aback, asked.
“Have you heard of Doctors Without Borders?”
Xiao Zhao talked about an organization that CEO Cheng totally didn’t expect.
“I know of it, but only vaguely.
Go on.”
“It’s a transnational dical organization.
I want to join them and help raise funds with my influence.”
This choice was very Zhao Hongjin.
CEO Cheng reflexively asked,
“Didn’t you study business?”
Xiao Zhao gave him a disdainful look and continued to explain.
“Silly, such large organizations have logistics, administrative, and publicity departnts.
There’s a lot I can do.”
Cheng Daqi fell silent and looked at Xiao Zhao, lost in thought.
Doctors Without Borders, Zhao Hongjin, the future pandemic.
It’s not enough, needs sothing more.
Wolf Dracula; the Dracula Family’s business happens to be in bio-dicine, that’s one to bring in.
Still not enough—there’s a shortage dostically.
Sun Dongxin; Dongxin Group is a top-tier trader and moreover, one of our own.
All connected now, perhaps it’s barely enough to erect a dam to hold back the flood.
But it defies logic, we need a reason, a plausible and convincing reason.
Cheng Daqi himself doesn’t need a reason to do this; he’s always been a good person, it’s just that his goodness cos with too many edges.
Quite a few people are watching him, and for his anticipated partners, there are several cunning old foxes.
CEO Cheng needs a believable reason, to prevent his actions from appearing too abrupt.
“Daqi, is there sothing on my face?”
CEO Cheng is now a billionaire; his power is such that whoever he looks at becos perplexed and moreover…
well, Xiao Zhao feels a mountainous pressure under his gaze.
“No!
You’re my lucky star, Ah Zhao, hahaha.”
Having thought of an excuse, CEO Cheng laughed heartily, but his cryptic response left Zhao Hongjin confused.
Bro, weren’t we talking about Doctors Without Borders?
“Weren’t you listening to what I was saying?”
Zhao Hongjin’s mind whirled, and she quickly grasped the ‘truth’.
“No, the Doctors Without Borders thing is very aningful, Xiao Zhao.
You have a bright goal.
I just felt a bit ashad just now, that’s all.”
Even nineteen-year-old Xiao Zhao loved to be complinted, especially by soone like CEO Cheng.
She laughed and lifted her chin slightly, replying sowhat proudly.
“Learn more from , let’s work hard together!”
CEO Cheng, rubbing his chin with one hand, gave Xiao Zhao an indulgent smile.
