Chapter 217: Cisco’s Two-Pronged Operation
“Actually, aside from your talent, I invited you to Boyuan Media because of your looks. Do you want to think about it?” Wenyi said.
Lin Yi smiled. “It’s my first time meeting someone as straightforward as you, and you’re already making me feel bad.”
“What’s the big deal? The entertainment industry is like this,” Wenyi said,
“I’m not afraid to tell you that I’ve touched all of the young trainees in our company. They’d wait for me at the hotel as long as I called, but you’re the first one to make me take the initiative.”Wenyi said
“Don’t you think that 200,000 a month is a bit too low for someone as good-looking as me?” Lin Yi asked.
“I just know that no one really likes freedom, it’s just that they don’t have enough money,” Wenyi said confidently.
“How about this? I’ll give you 400,000 a month, and I can arrange for you to work at Boyuan Media. If you want to hook up with other actresses while I’m not around, I won’t care.”
“Your 400,000 a month salary isn’t even enough for my car’s maintenance,” Lin Yi said with a smile. “Get as far away from here as you can. Don’t come out and embarrass yourself.”
“What?!” Wenyi was furious. “How dare you talk to me like that!”
“I’m already being very polite.”
“You!”
“Boss Yang!”
Just as Wenyi was about to lose his temper, he heard someone calling him from behind.
It was Pan Wen.
“You’re just in time. Get someone to take care of this ungrateful thing. I don’t want to see him again.”
“Lin Yi!” Pan Laosan exclaimed with a sad face. “If I really had that ability, I wouldn’t be hanging around you anymore!”!
“Lin Yi?” Lin Yi seemed familiar to Pan Laosan at first, but he wasn’t sure.
What rich second generation with a fortune of 1.5 billion would perform at a concert like this?
However, after the concert ended, Pan Wen waited for Wenyi to come out and happened to see Lin Yi up close.
It was only then that he confirmed that the man was really the super-rich second generation he’d met in the supermarket!
“What a coincidence, meeting you here.” Lin Yi said with a smile as he looked at Pan Laosan.
Yang Wenyi was a little surprised. “You two know each other?”
Pan Laosan looked awkward. “Not really, but I think we should just forget about it.”
“Forget about it?”
Yang Wenyi’s face was cold. “Pan Laosan, you’re a senior in the company. Do you think my reputation is that worthless?”
“CEO Yang, this isn’t about reputation. It’s about this man. We can’t afford to offend him.”
“Can’t afford to offend him?” Yang Wenyi snorted. “He’s just an errand boy. Do you think I can’t afford to offend him?”
“Errand boy?”
Pan Laosan was also stunned, “I’m not too sure about his real identity, but we’ve met him once before. Not to mention the other assets, just the cash on his card alone is as much as 1.5 billion dollars. It’s not something our Boyuan Media can compare to.”
“What, what did you say? His card holds 1.5 billion dollars?”
“It’s true. I saw it with my own eyes.”
Yang Wenyi was stunned. Her expression was not as firm as before, and she was even a little embarrassed.
She believed that Pan Laosan would not lie about this matter.
In that case, there was only one possibility.
This man really had so much money on him!
“Mr. Lin, I’m really sorry. I was rude just now.” Yang Wenyi repeatedly bowed and apologized. The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became.
She only had about 20 million in cash at the most, and this man had 1.5 billion in cash on him.
The difference between the two was obvious. They weren’t on the same level at all.
“If you’re thirsty, buy some cucumbers.” Lin Yi smiled. “You can use them at night and eat them during the day. You’ll be able to kill two birds with one stone. How wonderful.”
“Yes, yes, yes, I understand.”
If it was someone else saying that, Wenyi would have lost her temper a long time ago.
However, the person standing in front of her was a super-rich second generation. She couldn’t afford to offend someone like that.
In the entertainment industry where your status was everything, Wenyi knew very well that she had to behave herself when she wasn’t as strong as the other party. Otherwise, she wouldn’t even know how she died.
He pressed the car key in his hand, and Koenigsegg’s door opened. Lin Yi left under the watchful eyes of Wenyi and Laosan.
The scene made Wenyi even more scared. It was a good thing that Lao San came in time, or else something would’ve really happened.
The car had just left when she received a notification from the system. Guo Rui’s five-star review had been received.
Soon, Guo Rui called.
“Have you received the five-star rating?”
“Yes, it was quite timely.”
“You’ve helped me so much. It would be wrong if I didn’t give you a good rating immediately,” Guo Rui said.
“By the way, are you free tonight? I want to treat you to a meal.”
“As a married woman, treating a single youth like me to a meal is suspicious. Even if you’re not afraid, I’m afraid of being beaten to death by your husband.”
“What are you talking about?” Guo Rui laughed. “My husband is away on business.”
As expected, husbands of married women liked to go on business trips.
“Although your husband is away on business, you still have a son.”
“My son went to his grandmother’s house.”
Lin Yi, “...”
Not only did married women’s husbands like to go on business trips, but their children also liked to go to their grandmother’s house.
“I might not be able to today, I have other things to do,” Lin Yi said. “Let’s talk about it another day.”
“Alright then, I’ll remember this favor. You must give me a chance to treat you to a meal.”
“Okay.”
After hanging up the phone, Lin Yi was in a hurry.
This young lady, Guo Rui, was quite charming.
Looking at the progress of the mission, it was already (16/20) , and the ultimate reward was now beckoning at him.
He continued with his work.
Ring, Ring, Ring..
Lin Yi’s phone rang. It was He Yuanyuan.
“What’s up?”
“We heard some news about Cisco, so we want to report it to you,” He Yuanyuan said.
“There’s a Sichuan restaurant near the company. It’s noon, so let’s eat and talk,” Lin Yi said. “I’ll be at the company in ten minutes.”
“Haha...”
Lin Yi froze. It was just a meal, so why was she laughing so loudly?
“Qi Bro, look at what I said. I told you I’d definitely get a meal as long as I talk to Boss Lin,” He Yuanyuan said to Qi Xianzhao over the phone.
Lin Yi, “...”
He’d been tricked.
After hanging up, Lin Yi drove to the Sichuan restaurant near the Lingyun office to meet up with he Yuanyuan and Qi Xianzhao.
The three of them booked a private room and ordered a few classic Sichuan dishes. After this, Lin Yi asked,
“What’s going on with Cisco?”
“I heard from a few friends in the industry that Cisco has started raising money,” He Yuanyuan said. “And it’s going exceptionally smoothly.”
“That’s normal,” Lin Yi said.
“With the help of chip 1.0, they’re already at the top of the industry. If they want to raise money, it’s just a matter of asking. The investors will come flooding to them with the money.”
“Other than that, Cisco is also actively contacting other research units, as if they’re looking for contract labor,” Qi Xianzhao said.
“These people are pretty fast,” Lin Yi said. “They’re actually playing a two-pronged strategy.”
Qi Xianzhao nodded. “This is the fastest and most effective method right now.”
“Since Cisco is starting to raise money, let’s play along,” Lin Yi said with a smile.
“How?” He Yuanyuan asked.
“I can’t go out myself, so I’ll have to ask your senior sister to help get a share of such a big cut of meat.”
