If anyone knows the gossip about the company's listing, it is none other than various investment and financial consultants.

As soon as he arrived at the company today, Jason began to search for the employee information of various unicorns on the Internet, and then sent emails or internal letters one by one.

The routine is the same, first get in touch with these employees, then sell anxiety to them, and warn them that inflation is fierce now, and saving money is not as good as investing. If you give the money to him to manage, you can guarantee a return of a few percent every year, and finally Tell these unicorn employees to remember to contact him after the company goes public.

It's a pity that business development is not going well today, and there are very few replies.He sat on the office chair and leaned back, pinching his sore and swollen cervical spine, anxious about whether the performance of this quarter could meet the target.

On reflection, the worst decision he made this year was moving to San Francisco.Don't ask, if you ask, you will regret it, and if you ask again, you will regret it very much.Really want to go back to New York now!

He felt that he was out of tune with the big environment of San Francisco, maybe he didn't belong here at all.

Although there are many rich people in San Francisco, he sometimes really doesn't understand this group of people, especially some of his customers, whose bank balances can be separated by several commas, but they are still stingy as always.These misers not only don't know how to enjoy life at all, but even the handling fee of 35 yuan has to be argued with him for a long time.

If he hadn't seen the bank deposits of these industry leaders with his own eyes, it would be hard for Jason to guess that these people were rich just from their appearance.They were dressed casually, not to mention famous brands, and the loose T-shirts and jeans that were worn on them all day felt like they were bought from a big box store for nine dollars.Few of them drive luxury cars, and even the color of the car is black, white and gray. There is no market for supercars with cool shapes here.

Jason was worrying about his performance when the screen of his phone turned on suddenly, and a friend request came in. He opened it and saw that the profile picture of the other party was a girl with a pretty face, her name was Alice, and the note: "We met last month."

Without hesitation for a second, he quickly added this girl and looked through her circle of friends.

Alice's circle of friends is only visible for three days, full of selfies.In this day and age, it is really rare to see people who are so obsessed with posting selfies.

However, no matter how good-looking people post selfies, they are pleasing to the eye. It is simply a benefit to mankind, and the more the better.

Jason immediately became interested, but he didn't move. He was too impatient and easily gave up the right to speak.

In the evening, Alice arrived late, and took the initiative to say hello on WeChat: "Hi!"

The corner of Jason's mouth twitched, and he waited for half an hour before replying: "Excuse me, may I ask who you are?"

Alice: "Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow

Jason: "I'm sorry, sorry, look at my bad memory. I can't even remember a stunning beauty like Miss Sister. I must be blind! Can you remind me a little bit? Where were we last month? seen?"

Alice: "Huh╭(╯^╰)╮"

Jason really couldn't remember, so he clicked into Alice's circle of friends again, wanting to look at her photos to refresh his memory, but found that Alice had just posted another selfie.

The girl in the selfie is pretending to be angry, her lips are pursed, and the lip gloss on her lips is puffy, which makes people want to taste it.

Copywriter: What should I do, the male god can't remember who I am.

This circle of friends scratched Jason's heart.He quickly replied to Alice: "Look, I must be too busy to forget such an important person as Miss Sister."

Alice: "Oh... forget it, forget it, who told me to fall in love with you first? I can only admit that I am unlucky..."

This operation is like a big health care for Jason, massaging every straight man's nerves properly and comfortably.Whoever she is, why did she refuse when she came to your door?

Jason replied: "Oh, let's not worry about the past, from this moment on, we are officially acquainted."

He changed the subject: "What kind of job does Miss Sister do?"

Alice: "No talent, only one program, it is far behind your financial elites. Finance is the real high-level. We are just moving bricks."

Jason: "Miss Sister is being humble. I'm just a financial migrant worker."

Alice: "Then what exactly do you do?"

Jason quietly drafted a draft in his heart, wanting to make the matter of fooling code farmers into buying wealth management products a little more lofty, so he started bulk English: "It's like this, the lead of our current project is very nice and pays great attention to it. Our work life balance. In terms of career, he is also very hardworking in helping us plan and find a direction that suits everyone’s development. Tobehonest, I originally specialized in M&A, but recently I feel that the prospect of Wealth Management is more promising.”

Alice: "Oh, that's right, my little brother is so amazing~~~"

Jason: "Where there is, there is nothing, so-so."

------

The two of them chatted nonchalantly for a week, and Jason's interest in this Alice who came out of nowhere grew day by day.

Compared with the exhaustion of work and the hardships of starting a business, it is much easier to create love or something that looks like love. It only requires two people and a little hormone.

For Jason, fast food love is like an aspirin, which can relieve pain for a short time.

The adrenaline provided by the dewy relationship can make people excited and addicted for a short time, allowing him to temporarily forget about the unsatisfactory career, the crushing of peers and the anxiety about the future.

One week of long-distance ambiguity is already Jason's upper limit, he feels that the time is ripe, and it's time to make an appointment to meet.

Jason cut to the chase: "Miss, do you have any plans for this weekend? Do you want to go out for a meal or watch a movie?"

Alice: "Huh? It's so old-fashioned to eat and watch movies. ╭(╯^╰)╮"

Jason: "Does the young lady have any better suggestions?"

Alice: "Actually, it's my birthday this weekend."

Jason: "Wow, then I wish you a happy birthday in advance, what birthday gift do you want, miss?"

He was actually beating a drum in his heart: birthday is coming so soon, don't you meet a girl?If she asked for an expensive gift, I wouldn't take it for granted.

Who knew that Alice actually said, "Why don't you come as my gift? We'll see each other this weekend."

Jason couldn't help but be ecstatic in his heart, is there such a good thing? !Isn't this the rhythm of Netflix and Chill (about pao)?

I didn't expect this girl to be so direct.Just be direct, it's exactly what Jason wants. He doesn't like girls who are too reserved and too reserved. Reservation will only make him lose patience.

It is really strange that once a person has hope, time seems to pass very slowly.He looked forward to the stars and the moon, and finally looked forward to the weekend.

The two of them agreed to meet at Alice's apartment at eight o'clock in the evening.

Jason finished his dinner and went to take a shower.Humming a song while taking a shower, I was in a good mood.

After taking a shower, he walked to the mirror naked, shaved himself, and put on some aftershave.

Most people put perfume on their wrists, but Jason is different. Every time he goes out to fight, he only sprinkles a thin layer of cologne on his little brother to make the smell faintly visible.

He pulls out the Thom Browne he bought on sale from his closet and puts it on, and finally picks out a favorite of fourteen different hairspray brands to get his hair out of shape.

Everything is ready, just waiting to meet this Alice and fight her.
