The leisurely life of a reborn dad

"I can't help it. There are too many things. I can't remember some of them without thinking about them carefully." Cao Shujie replied with a message, expressing his helplessness.

"This is really annoying." Cao Zhen was almost suffocated when he saw this message.

He immediately asked back: "Think carefully about what else you have. If you get amnesia one day, I can still think of something for you."

"Oh, thank you so much!" Cao Shujie tapped his fingers on the mobile phone keyboard and edited several groups of information.

"I also buy stocks and digital currencies."

"I also invested in a company and am a major shareholder. Should I tell you about it?"

"Cao Zhen, you idiot, there are still many things you don't know." Cao Shujie felt much more comfortable after a while.

I told you to curse me to get amnesia!

He could only talk so unscrupulously with Cao Zhen.

To be honest, even these childhood friends have different levels of distance in Cao Shujie's heart.

If you want to say who is the closest among several people, it must be Cao Zhen.

There is no way. Compared with the others, they are neighbors in front and behind, and their ages are only one year apart. They really grew up together.

When they were young, if one of the parents was not at home, they would just go to the other family to eat, and they didn't take it seriously at all.

Cao Fei and the others gradually got to know each other and joined in later.

Cao Zhen didn't take his "bad" attitude seriously either. His focus was very different: "Shujie, I know that you, a birdman, buy stocks."

"But what is digital currency?"

"Bitcoin and Ethereum are both counted." Cao Shujie said casually.

"There are still many things that deceive people under the banner of digital currency. Generally speaking, they are all tricks of passing the parcel and cutting the leeks in the end. It depends on who is unlucky." Cao Shujie said very clearly.

Unexpectedly, Cao Zhen also paid attention to this thing: "You said Bitcoin, just say it directly, what is digital currency, isn't it just decentralization? I heard that thing seems to involve money laundering, right?"

"It's not cheap now, more than 2,500 US dollars per coin, how many do you have?"

"So expensive?" Cao Shujie saw the data sent by Cao Zhen, he didn't expect that this thing has risen so much recently.

He didn't pay attention to this thing for some days, and also considered selling some this year, but he didn't expect that it has risen to more than 2,500 US dollars without knowing it.

When Cao Shujie was distracted, Cao Zhen saw that he didn't know the price, and suddenly he was a little speechless: "Shujie, did you buy it or not? You don't know as much as I know about it."

"The main reason is that I didn't buy much, and the price was not expensive when I bought it. I'm busy at ordinary times, so how can I have time to just look at it?"

"If it's this price now, I definitely won't buy it." Cao Shujie said so.

But he was really thinking about selling it in his heart.

According to the price Cao Zhen just mentioned, it has reached 2,500 US dollars per coin, and converted with the current exchange rate, it is equivalent to 18,000 RMB per coin. A total of 35,126 coins are held, which is not a lot.

However, if they are sold at the current price, there will be more than 630 million.

"Wow!" Cao Shujie has never calculated it, and never thought that the more than 30,000 coins in his hands are now worth so much money.

Seeing this result, Cao Shujie couldn't remain indifferent.

At this time, Cao Shujie realized that the more than 30,000 bitcoins in his hands were not a small number.

If he keeps selling them at a high price, can he sell them?

Besides, where is the high price?

Moreover, the domestic supervision has begun, and it will become more and more strict in the later stage. Don't make it so that there is no market at that time.

Cao Shujie already has the idea of ​​selling in his mind.

"Wait a little longer and sell them in batches." Cao Shujie thought so.

At the cashier counter of Xinjiang Hotel on the 5th floor of the Five Star Department Store in Yiling City, Cao Zhen looked at the message sent by Cao Shujie, and he had to give a reverse discount for what Cao Shujie said.

However, when Cao Shujie said that he didn't buy much and the price was not expensive, Cao Zhen wondered which statement was true and which was false.

"How cheap was it when he bought it? It can't be that he bought it when it was only a few dozen yuan a coin?" Cao Zhen wondered in his heart.

But there was no answer.

He didn't expect that the cost price of Bitcoin in Cao Shujie's hands had become negative.

There was no way. He spent a total of 600,000 yuan in 2011 and bought 33,902 coins.

When he sold 7,500 coins directly in 2013 and earned more than 52 million yuan, his holding cost was already negative at that time, and the cost price was shockingly low.

No matter how Cao Zhen thought about it, he would not think of the twists and turns here, and Cao Shujie would not tell him in detail about this matter.

After the two chatted for a while, they slowly dived tacitly.

After Cao Huifang and Deng Miaoshan finished their meal, they came to the cashier counter in front. Cao Huifang saw Cao Zhen standing inside. She wanted to go to Fukuan, but Cao Zhen waved her hand and drove her away.

"Fangfang, treat this place as your home from now on. Just come over if you want to eat." Cao Zhen said to her.

Cao Huifang was embarrassed to respond, and finally called "Brother Zhen" again, and then left Xinjiang Hotel with her good sister Deng Miaoshan.

When they were a little far away from the hotel, Deng Miaoshan suddenly hugged Cao Huifang's arm and screamed "Wow", attracting many people to look over here.

When they saw the two young girls laughing and playing together, some people kept staring at them, and some people turned their heads away embarrassedly.

I always feel that it's not good to look like this.

Cao Huifang surrendered and said to Deng Miaoshan: "Okay, okay, stop making trouble. Don't you still want to see the car? Let's go quickly."

"What car do you want to buy?" Cao Huifang asked her.

Deng Miaoshan thought for a while and said, "The Magotan of yours is pretty good, easy to drive, and has a lot of space, but I want to check out the Passat or Accord first."

The prices of the three cars with similar configurations are not much different.

"Let's go. Anyway, I have nothing else to do today, so I'm just going to take you around." Cao Huifang drove her away from the five-star department store and headed towards the 4S store in the south.

…

On the other side, Wang Zhifeng took the company bus to Yiling City Railway Station. After buying a ticket to the capital, he simply ate something in the train station and planned to have a good meal when he got there.

"Chaoyang." Wang Zhifeng thought about the purpose of this trip.

He is not sure whether he can succeed this time, but no matter what, he will give it a try first. If he really can't find people, he will go to colleges and universities to recruit people.

Or change the direction and go to other smaller research institutes to recruit people. It will be easier to recruit people after their laboratory has become famous.

But if we were to poach people at that time, we wouldn’t be able to pay such a high price now.

This is called high risk accompanied by high reward.

After a long journey, after more than 5 hours of driving, the time came to around 4 o'clock in the afternoon. Wang Zhifeng came out of the station and then took the subway to his destination.

First, he found a hotel nearby. After completing the formalities and settling in, he put the luggage bag he brought with him in the room. Then Wang Zhifeng took out a small black leather notebook and dialed the other party's phone number in the order he had arranged. Telephone.

The phone beeped, but no one answered.

Wang Zhifeng thought that the other party was probably busy at this time, so he was not in a hurry, so he edited a text message and sent it to the other party.

The content of the text message showed his identity and attitude and how he just arrived in Beijing today and wanted to meet and chat with the other party. He also wrote an extra line at the end: "Mr. Fu, I'm really sorry to bother you again. It's me. My boss Cao Shujie asked me to come here.”

Maybe Wang Zhifeng's text message had an effect. About 20 minutes later, Wang Zhifeng received a call back from the man named Fu Xianghui.

After Fu Xianghui waited for Wang Zhifeng to answer the phone, the first thing he asked was: "Do you know Cao Shujie, how is he doing now? Did he ask you to come to me?"

Wang Zhifeng could tell that Fu Xianghui was deeply impressed by his boss Cao Shujie. He didn't know the reason, but this did not prevent Wang Zhifeng from using this opportunity to open a breakthrough and have a good chat with him.

"Mr. Fu, I just arrived in Chaoyang District. Are you free tonight? Let's meet and chat." Wang Zhifeng asked him.

Fu Xianghui had always refused to discuss poaching with Wang Zhifeng head-on, but this time Fu Xianghui did not refuse directly. He hesitated on the phone for a long time before asking: "Where are you? Shall I go find you?"

"Mr. Fu, I can come find you wherever is convenient." Wang Zhifeng said.

He had an attitude of poaching people, but Fu Xianghui rejected his kindness.

Wang Zhifeng had no choice. He finally told the hotel where he lived, and heard Fu Xianghui say that he would not get off work in three hours, that is, after 7:30.

He was not in a hurry and said to Fu Xianghui: "Mr. Fu, do you think this is okay? I'll find a hotel now and wait for you in a private room of the hotel."

Fu Xianghui did not refute, which was regarded as acquiescence.

After hanging up the phone, Wang Zhifeng came out of the hotel. He was not familiar with his surroundings, but he had tricks up his sleeve.

He used Meituan to find restaurants based on ratings and sales, and then chose a restaurant that made Anhui cuisine and waited there.

Then he sent the location and room number to Fu Xianghui using WeChat, and received a reply from the other party a few minutes later: "OK!"

While waiting, Wang Zhifeng was also thinking about how to talk to Fu Xianghui after meeting him later.

Thinking that when he introduced the other party, Fu Xianghui's attitude was obviously very different just because he mentioned the boss's name more. This also made Wang Zhifeng very curious. It seemed that his boss still valued him in Fu Xianghui's eyes.

"So why did the boss resign?" Wang Zhifeng pondered this question in his mind, but he never had an answer.

From a normal person's point of view, being able to find a formal job in a research institute in Beijing can solve the problem of sending children to school here, and the income is not low. According to common sense, this is the life that many people dream of.

But his boss abandoned it like worn out shoes and didn't even care.

"What did the boss think?" Wang Zhifeng couldn't figure it out.

He first used his mobile phone to check the news, and after a while, he video chatted with his wife.

He told his wife that he had just arrived in Beijing this afternoon and had contacted one of the people. He would have a meal together at a hotel later and talk to the other person in detail. If the other person still disagreed, he would move to another place.

On this trip, for Wang Zhifeng, when contacting these people for face-to-face interviews, there are only two answers: 'yes' or 'no', and there will be no such thing as three visits to the thatched cottage.

In Wang Zhifeng's view, if a person cannot position himself correctly and does not know what he wants, there is no need for such a person to continue talking over and over again, as it will be a waste of time for everyone.

At the end, Wang Zhifeng heard the sound of a crying child coming from the receiver of his mobile phone. He knew that his son had started to make trouble again. His wife had no time to chat with him via video. Finally, she told him to be careful when he was outside and drink less alcohol.

"Don't worry, my wife, I definitely can't drink too much." Wang Zhifeng said.

He finally said to his wife: "Wife, you have to work hard at home during this period."

"Hey, it's okay. Don't think too much when you are outside. I have to go see our son first. That's it. You hang up the video." After his wife finished speaking, she disappeared from the camera.

"My dear, why are you crying? Mom is here." His wife's voice came from the receiver of the mobile phone.

Wang Zhifeng listened for a while and then hung up the video.

Fu Xianghui said that he would get off work at 7:30, but in fact, it was just after 7:30 when he arrived here.

The two had talked on the phone twice, but this was the first time they met.

The first time Fu Xianghui saw Wang Zhifeng, he confirmed that he really knew Cao Shujie.

"Mr. Fu, to be honest, this time it was my boss Cao Shujie who sent me here to meet with Mr. Fu." Wang Zhifeng said so.

He also took out a photo of him and Cao Shujie to show Fu Xianghui, completely dispelling the other party's doubts.

This photo was taken when Cao Shujie and Wang Zhifeng were awarding prizes at the company meeting of all employees of Xuemeng Food Factory.

Although it has been almost 7 years since they last met, Fu Xianghui recognized Cao Shujie at the first sight of Cao Shujie in the photo.

"It's him, it's really Lao Cao." Fu Xianghui looked at Cao Shujie in the photo, feeling a lot of emotions, as if he hadn't seen a friend for many years.

"Is he doing well now?" Fu Xianghui asked.

Wang Zhifeng nodded subconsciously.

If his boss is not doing well, then 99.9% of people in the country are not doing well.

"Manager Wang, can you please tell me about Lao Cao's life over the years?" Fu Xianghui asked.

This surprised Wang Zhifeng. He subconsciously asked Fu Xianghui: "Mr. Fu, you don't usually pay attention to TV news reports or online news?"

"Why do you watch those things? There is no real story. What is reported is what others want you to see." Fu Xianghui was quick to speak.

He also said: "Besides, I am usually very busy. I have been immersed in research and writing reports. I don't have enough time. I don't have time to pay attention to other things."

This statement is very reliable. Wang Zhifeng finally understood why when he called those people, they seemed to be unaware of his boss Cao Shujie's recent situation.

It seems that no one pays attention to these news.

Another thought popped up in Wang Zhifeng's mind: "How busy are these people usually? They don't have their own time, right?"

And Wang Zhifeng felt that his guess was close to the truth.

I don't know whether to feel sad for these people or be happy for them?

They really do not hear anything outside the window, and only focus on their own research!

In other words, such focused talents are in short supply now. (End of this chapter)
