Chapter 291: School Organizes Charity Work (Part 1)

Zhao Qingfeng had already secured the music copyrights ahead of the three major operators.

Now, only half a year remained until the Sky Net project and facial recognition among other government pilot projects could perfectly conclude and move to the next step.

The journey was long and the task arduous.

Fortunately, with the ‘strong support’ of Li Zhi and Cai Shuwen, and with Marina continuously recruiting various talents, coupled with the substantial funds prepared by the government for special allocation, everything seemed to be falling into place.

But what Zhao Qingfeng hadn’t expected was.

Shortly after the meeting ended, Cai Shuwen came looking for him.

With a worried look, Zhao Qingfeng thought he wanted to borrow money for buying a house and getting married, “Little Wen, are you planning to marry Marina soon? Money is no issue, you can choose any house in the provincial city. I personally suggest you buy a house of over 200 square meters. Not only can you bring the elderly from the countryside, but you can also spare two rooms for children, for having more kids in the future.”

Cai Shuwen was deeply grateful.

But it wasn’t a lack of money, he had earned enough to buy a house.

“President Zhao… I didn’t want to bring it up during the meeting, but someone has been contacting me for the past few days, wanting me to go develop in the south.”

“Tencent?”

“President Zhao really has a keen eye, guessing it right away?”

“What do you think about it?”

What else could Cai Shuwen think? Blushing, he scratched his head, “Of course, I won’t go. I feel ashamed. Whether it’s LeXin or the navigation website or even the government project, all were planned by you. I just proposed a internet cafe management system, and its success in promotion was all under your planning. It’s all Lina bragging on forums, making Tencent think I’m the pillar of our company. Brother Ma’s offer wasn’t small, including a monthly salary of 20,000 and a 10% share of the profits. But I know I can’t meet his expectations. What I mean is, besides me, he might have approached others too. Shouldn’t we have some countermeasures?”

Zhao Qingfeng had long anticipated that Ma Huateng was no ordinary person.

Competitors are always enemies, whether they use soft or hard tactics, it hurts either way.

He thought for a moment and called Marina over, “Lina, I’ve got an extra task for you. Contact headhunting firms nationwide. We can invest a little in them, so if any other company tries to poach from us, they must notify me in advance.”

…

The next day.

Early in the morning, Zhao Qingfeng received a call from Teacher Yu.

On the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the school decided to organize a ‘new student social practice.’

On his way to the office, the deputy class leader Li Wenshu asked Zhao Qingfeng, “Class leader, what is the social practice the teacher talked about? You’re so smart, have you guessed it already?”

Zhao Qingfeng was a bit puzzled.

Not seeing Li Wenshu for two days, he had become much more polite, “Have you and Li Xiang made up?”

Li Wenshu blushed and shook his head, “No, I was wondering what you do outside. Li Xiang has changed a lot recently, earning quite a bit through promoting LeXin. Every time I ask him how he did it, he says it was your help. So, I was thinking, do you know someone at LeXin? I also want to earn some money in my free time.”

Actually, anyone could promote.

Li Xiang was just a little favored by Zhao Qingfeng’s resources.

But to ordinary people, that was already a lot.

In such a short time, he had bought a personal computer, making Li Wenshu envious and somewhat jealous.

Zhao Qingfeng said, “That’s a secret. Li Xiang is my roommate, so I told him. You’re not okay, our relationship isn’t there yet. What I mean is, if you became my brother or sister, maybe I could let Li Xiang tell you the truth.”

Li Wenshu was a bit conflicted.

Now, being with Li Xiang seemed to have a promising future.
