Chapter 142 A seed planted casually!
"You said this was given to me by the boss?"

Pei Rang looked at the Maybach purchase contract in his hand, and it would be a lie to say he was not surprised.

You have to know that his current car is a BMW worth more than 600,000 yuan. Although his salary plus other income is also hundreds of thousands of yuan a month, this is Shanghai, and life is not that simple.

The monthly mortgage payment is over 200,000 yuan, and there are also various tuition classes, tutoring, nanny and living expenses for the children, which cost at least 400,000 or 500,000 yuan each month. All in all, there is not much savings left.

Although Pei Rang's life seems glamorous to outsiders, only he himself knows what the reality is like.

"Well, Mr. said that as the executive president of Yunmengze, you still need to have a good appearance when you travel. The company can also purchase a few high-end commercial vehicles for company employees to use. The grade cannot be too low!"

"In addition." Chen Fei handed another car purchase contract to Pei Rang, "This is the mysterious prize prepared by the gentleman. It must be absolutely fair and just!"

When he said the last few words, Fade Chen's tone became noticeably heavier, and Pei Rang knew that this was advice from his boss.

"Let the boss rest assured!" Pei Rang said seriously.

Chen Fei nodded when he heard this, said goodbye and turned to leave the president's office. After all, Su Chen was still waiting for him in the basement of Jinmao Tower.

After Chen Fei left, Pei Rang picked up another car purchase contract and started reading it. When he saw the car contract, he smacked his lips and said, "Such a big prize must make everyone very excited!"

There were a few flashes in his eyes, and then he called his secretary in and told him to notify all the senior executives of the company to hold a meeting. This annual meeting must be held in a lively manner.

"A Fei, is it the time for the university to have holidays now?"

As soon as Chen Fei got into the car, he heard Su Chen's question.

"University?" Chen Fei was confused. He wanted to say that he looked like someone who had been to university.
Of course, he was just thinking about this.

"That should be the case. The holidays usually start around the 10th day of the twelfth lunar month. The time is right around these few days!" Although he didn't know when the university holidays were, he knew when the high school winter vacation was!

Su Chen nodded slightly when he heard that, then took out his cell phone and made a call.

Just now, when he was waiting for Chen Fei, Su Chen was chatting in the Su family's "Loving Family" group. His uncle knew that he was currently in Shanghai and asked him to bring Qingya with him when he came back.

Su Chen then remembered that Su Qingya was attending university in Shanghai. It seemed that Su Chen had not called Su Qingya since she started school due to various reasons. He felt that he had been a little derelict in his duty as a brother.

The phone rang for about seven or eight seconds before it was connected.

"Hey, brother, why did you think of calling me?" Su Qingya said playfully.

Su Chen smiled awkwardly, "Qingya, are you going to have a holiday?"

"Yeah~ I released it yesterday, what's the matter?"

These words made Su Chen silent. He didn't go home during the holidays. Could it be that he found a partner in school?
In just these few short seconds, Su Chen imagined the scene of his delicious cabbages being eaten by pigs.

How could Su Chen bear it when thinking of these? He wanted to go and see what kind of pig had eaten his cabbages.

"Where are you now? I'll come find you!"

Su Qingya listened to her elder brother's tone that did not brook refusal, and after a moment's silence, she named a place.

Su Chen checked and found out that this place was not far from Shanghai University. It was near the dormitory where Su Qingya lived and it was an entrepreneurial center for college students.

"What's going on?" Su Chen couldn't figure it out for a moment, so he decided to go there and find out.

Modu University is not very far from Lujiazui where Su Chen is, about 18 kilometers away.
It took them nearly an hour to drive this distance, with traffic jams and stops all the way. It was already noon when they arrived.

Perhaps because it was the holiday, Su Chen saw many college students standing on the roadside dragging their luggage waiting for taxis.

"Modu University Entrepreneurship Center!"

Looking at the huge sign, Su Chen's doubts grew even more intense. "Could it be that I'm overthinking it? Qingya is not looking for a date, but starting a business at school?"

He suppressed the doubts in his heart and strode in with Chen Fei.

The entire University Student Entrepreneurship Center has a total of six buildings, five of which are low-rise buildings with more than ten floors.

Su Qingya is located on the 3th floor of Building 7.

It was also Su Chen's first time to come to such a place. He couldn't help but take a few more glances. He didn't expect that the facilities of this entrepreneurship center were quite complete. In addition to office space, there was also a fitness area, a library, and the like.

“I didn’t expect that this university’s entrepreneurship center would be much different from those office buildings in Lujiazui.”

Universities are worthy of being universities. People start their businesses right from the beginning of school. Their starting points are much higher than those of ordinary people. No wonder so many people are trying their best to get into a key university.

When I came out of the elevator, I saw Su Qingya at a glance.

The entire seventh floor is separated by glass as an office area, and Su Qingya and her colleagues’ office area is just on the left side when you exit the elevator.

Standing at the door and looking inside, Su Qingya was holding a tablet and discussing something with three beauties, writing and drawing on the tablet from time to time.

After watching for a while, Su Chen pushed open the door and walked in.

"Ding Dong~Welcome to Haitangxi~"

Su Chen never thought that there would be a store door reminder device installed. The four people who were still discussing immediately turned their eyes over.

"Handsome guy, who are you looking for?" a short-haired woman asked.

Su Qingya also saw Su Chen standing at the door and called out with a smile, "Brother, you're here!"

"Brother?" The other three looked at Su Chen.

Su Qingya nodded and walked over quickly. When she saw Fade Chen behind Su Chen, she was stunned for a moment and asked, "Brother, who is this?"

"A Fei, my friend!" Su Chen's bodyguard immediately retracted the words that had just reached out to his mouth.

Su Qingya nodded without asking any further questions, and pulled Su Chen to her best friend's side, "Brother~ Let me introduce you, these are my best friends and roommates!"

"This is Qin Nan, Zhao Ya, and Wang Yue!" He introduced the three people one by one.

"Hello, my name is Su Chen!"

"Su Chen? He's the one Qingya forgot at the dormitory door when school started!" Qin Nan, the short-haired guy who asked about Su Chen before, said jokingly.

"Uh~" Su Chen nodded helplessly. He didn't expect that he would still remember something that happened so long ago.

The other two also greeted Su Chen.

After a brief acquaintance, the three of them prepared to take their tablets to the side to discuss, leaving the space for the two siblings.

Su Chen glanced at the tablet and saw a picture of exquisite clothing on it. It looked like clothing from a certain dynasty in the past, so he asked curiously, "Qingya, what is this?"

"This is traditional Hanfu - the horse-faced skirt!" Su Qingya said excitedly.

"It looks pretty good. Why are you studying this? Are you planning to start your own business designing clothes?" Su Chen said jokingly.

Su Chen knew what his sister was like. She was indeed good at learning, but when it came to designing clothes, she probably didn't have the talent for it.

"No, we are planning to promote our traditional culture - Hanfu, so that more people can see our country's traditional culture!" Su Qingya said with a pout.

"Hmm?" Su Chen also realized that there must be a story here that he didn't know, otherwise how could Su Qingya, who had never come into contact with traditional costumes, spend so much time on this aspect.

I also studied these with a few girlfriends in this entrepreneurship center.
"Tell me, what happened?" Su Chen pulled over a stool and sat down, ready to listen carefully to Su Qingya's sharing.

"It's all because of those shameless Korean bastards." Su Qingya was also filled with anger when she talked about this.

After school starts, freshmen will choose to join some clubs they like. Influenced by their roommate Zhao Ya, Su Qingya and her friends gradually fell in love with Hanfu. Through in-depth understanding, they realized that Hanfu is not just a type of clothing, but a general term.

Thousands of years of cultural heritage have naturally given rise to many dynasties. Each dynasty has its own clothing culture, which is collectively called Hanfu.

However, there was no Hanfu club at Shanghai University, so a few of them talked about their ideas with the counselor, got the support of the teachers, and founded the first Hanfu club at Shanghai University.

It’s just that Hanfu has gradually disappeared from people’s sight in the past hundred years. Many people think that what they see on TV is all there is to Hanfu, which has caused many people to be not very accepting of Hanfu.

In addition, several neighboring countries continue to steal this culture and claim it as their own, which makes the survival space of Hanfu in China even smaller.

The reason why Su Qingya and her friends wanted to start a business was that there was an event held at Shanghai University before, and Su Qingya and her friends wanted to use this event to promote the Hanfu culture. Unexpectedly, they were ridiculed by several Korean international students.

They were accused of plagiarizing their country's traditional costumes and were called a "naked nation". This incident caused quite a stir at the time, but it was quickly suppressed by the school. Even discussion of the incident was not allowed on campus forums.

Su Qingya and her friends' plan to promote Hanfu also failed. In the end, they accidentally mentioned it during a chat, "Let's create a Hanfu brand ourselves to let more people see the beauty of Hanfu!"

In this way, three beginner Hanfu enthusiasts and one senior Hanfu enthusiast started their entrepreneurial journey.

They even specially named their Hanfu brand - Haitangxi!
Their first goal was to perfectly replicate the craftsmanship of the horse-faced skirt and see if they could add some traditional cultural elements to it.

After hearing this, Su Chen looked puzzled, not knowing whether he was sad or relieved. As the trend of the times surged forward, many traditional cultures were abandoned in the long river of the times. Now there is a group of young people who can pick up traditional culture, which is undoubtedly a blessing.

"I don't know if you still want to invest in your Hanfu brand. I am very optimistic about your idea. I believe that one day Hanfu will shine as brightly as it once did in your hands!"

"Investment?" Su Qingya opened her mouth wide. She didn't expect her elder brother to support her like this. After coming to her senses, she quickly ran towards the other three. She knew that her elder brother had a lot of money now. If he could invest, it would be a good thing for them and save a lot of time.

They talked in low voices for a long time, occasionally looking at Su Chen, and soon the four of them had reached an agreement. One of the girls, who looked cold, walked in front, and she seemed to be the leader of Su Qingya and the others.

Su Chen remembered that the girl's name was Wang Yue.

Wang Yue was about to speak when she discovered a problem. She didn't know how to address Su Chen. It was impossible for her to just call him by his name. As for calling him brother like Su Qingya did, she couldn't do that either.

After a moment of silence, he asked, "Mr. Su, I wonder how much money you want to invest."

Hearing this title, Su Chen changed his previous casual demeanor, sat up straighter, and the smile on his face faded.

There was a gleam of light in Su Chen's eyes, and an inexplicable aura emanated from him. Wang Yue felt her heart beating faster. She had only seen such an aura in her uncle.

"I'm going to invest two million and own 80% of the shares!"

"Two million!" Qin Nan and Zhao Ya both felt as if they were hit hard on the head by a sledgehammer, and even their breathing became a little hurried.

Their families are not very rich, not even well-off families, and are not much different from ordinary people.

This two million investment is no less than an opportunity to change their destiny.

Wang Yue was also surprised to hear this number. After all, they are still a makeshift team and everything is starting from scratch. Apart from the belief of "promoting Hanfu culture", they do not have any other advantages.

She didn't know whether she was trying to make Su Qingya happy or whether she really believed in this career.

After a moment of silence, Wang Yue said, "Sixty percent of the two million, and the remaining forty percent will be divided equally among the four of us!"

Su Chen shrugged indifferently when he heard this. This was just a seed scattered casually. It depended on whether it could take root and sprout and grow into a towering tree.

"Deal! Just two million for 60% of the shares!"

Wang Yue felt relieved when he heard this, but he was worried that Su Chen's attitude would be too tough and it would not be a good idea to continue the stalemate.

"Yeah~ We have investment!" Qin Nan and Zhao Ya jumped up excitedly.

Looking at the "dynamic light waves" that surged with every jump, Su Chen couldn't help but take a few more glances, muttering to himself: "This is the legendary baby-faced big breasts, it's really hidden!"

"Cough cough~" Wang Yue coughed twice softly, and Qin Nan and the other man stopped, but the smiles on their faces were still as bright as ever.

"Qin Nan, Zhao Ya, go to the Entrepreneurship Center and print out a few contracts!"

"Okay, Yueyue!" Qin Nan responded and pulled Zhao Ya outside.

After the two left, Su Chen looked at Wang Yue in front of him and said curiously: "I'm curious why you agreed to my investment. Logically speaking, with your background, this amount of money is nothing."

Su Chen just discovered that this woman named Wang Yue was different from the other two. She came from a very wealthy family. The Nautilus 7118 watch worth a million dollars on her wrist was enough to show that her family was not short of money.

Wang Yue was not surprised at all. Anyone who could casually throw out two million to test the waters would definitely be able to see through her outfit.

"My family doesn't agree!"

Wang Yue's answer was very simple, and Su Chen did not continue to ask. Her words had already shown that her family was not optimistic about Hanfu.

Qin Nan and the others left quickly and came back quickly, but their expressions didn't seem right. Su Chen took a look and found that a middle-aged man who looked like a teacher came with them.

The middle-aged man saw Su Chen's enthusiasm and walked to Su Chen's side in two steps and greeted him warmly: "Mr. Su, welcome to invest in our Entrepreneurship Center. I am Director Li of the Entrepreneurship Center!"

After hearing the conversation between Qin Nan and the other person in the office just now, he asked about it and learned that a rich young man had invested two million in them. Suddenly, his mind became active.

"Just think how wonderful it would be if I could get this two million investment!" Director Li was already thinking about how to spend the money after he got it.

"Hello!" Su Chen stretched out his hand, shook it gently, and then took it back.

"Mr. Su, here are the contracts. Can you take a look?" Director Li took out three contracts from his briefcase.

Su Chen looked at Director Li deeply, and when he opened the first page of the contract, his brows frowned. He looked at Wang Yue beside him, shook the contract in his hand, and asked her what was going on.

Wang Yue thought that Su Chen didn't want to communicate with Director Li, so he immediately said, "Director Li, this is a collaboration between Haitangxi and Mr. Su, so please don't bother with it."

"How can it be a bother? You are still young and don't know the twists and turns in the contract. What if you are cheated? As the director of the Entrepreneurship Center, I am doing this for your own good!" Director Li said it in a very high-sounding manner.

"It's also for our own good? Previously, the game studio downstairs developed a small game that was spotted by another company, who was ready to spend 500,000 yuan to buy it. It was thanks to Director Li that the studio not only didn't make any money, but the copyright of the small game was also taken away by the company. It really provided a great help to our college students' entrepreneurship!"

Su Qingya had no intention of indulging Director Li, so she started to act vehemently. Moreover, the investor was her elder brother, so she was more confident.

Director Li seemed to have been stepped on a sore spot. He stood up and pointed at Su Qingya and said, "You? How can a student like you talk like that? What's your name and who is your counselor?"

"Brother, our Director Li is trying to make things difficult for me, and you don't do anything about it!" Su Qingya came close to Su Chen and whispered, but her voice was a little loud, and the people around heard it.

Director Li, who was still angry, froze in place for a moment. He tried to put on a smile and asked Su Chen, "Mr. Su, is this your sister?"

Su Chen glanced at him and said lightly: "What else?"

For a moment, Director Li didn't know what to do. He didn't know whether to leave or not.

How could a person who could casually take out two million and throw it away be a simple person? He wanted to slap himself twice now. He was really blinded by greed.

Fortunately, the cell phone in his pocket rang at this time, and Director Li answered the call without thinking.

"You need me for something? OK, I'll be right down!"

After hanging up the phone, Director Li forced out a smile that was uglier than crying and said, "Mr. Su, you guys can talk about the contract slowly. I have something else to do first."

After Director Li took two steps, he heard Su Chen's voice, "Director Li, do you think I should give feedback to the leaders of your school about this matter?"

Chen Fei stepped forward and blocked Director Li's way.

Director Li was frightened instantly. He would plan ahead before doing such things. He would check the background of the person involved. If he was a weak target, he would take action. If he had a background, he would pretend not to see it.

What happened today happened suddenly, and he didn't investigate the situation properly. He only knew that someone had invested in a Hanfu brand. When Director Li heard the amount of two million, he was shocked.

"I..." Director Li opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.

"Mr. Su, let me handle this matter!" Wang Yue said suddenly.

Su Chen glanced at Wang Yue, nodded slightly, and waved at Chen Fei.

Upon seeing this, Fade Chen immediately stepped aside. Director Li did not stop at all and left quickly.

"Go and get another contract!" Su Chen threw the contract in his hand on the table.

"Huh?" Wang Yue looked at Su Chen in confusion, then picked up the contract and looked through it. Unexpectedly, Party A turned out to be the Entrepreneurship Center, and even the account holder for the payment turned into Li Sihai, the Director Li just now.

She immediately understood that the look Su Chen gave her just now was saying that there was a problem with the contract.

"Nannan, what's going on?" Wang Yue handed the contract to Qin Nan who was standing beside him.

Qin Nan was still wondering why the two people's expressions changed so quickly. When he took the contract and looked at it, his face instantly darkened, "Yueyue, this contract is not the standard contract we printed!"

Investment contracts like theirs all use a unified contract text, which is printed at the Entrepreneurship Center. Qin Nan clearly remembers that the one she printed was not this one.

"Did Director Li just say that something was secretly changed when reviewing the contract?" Zhao Ya quickly recounted what had happened before.

It turned out that after the two of them printed the contract, they were stopped by Director Li, who also questioned them. No wonder he knew Su Chen's last name as soon as he came in.

Upon hearing this, Wang Yue gave the two of them an unpleasant look. Qin Nan and the other man also knew that they had made a big mistake, so they lowered their heads and walked aside.

"Mr. Su, please wait a moment!"

"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry!" Su Chen said indifferently.

Originally, Wang Yue was planning to go get the contract in person, but Su Qingya got there first, so Wang Yue had no choice but to sit back in his seat.

Looking at the contract on the table, Wang Yue's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness. She put the contract away and put it in her bag.

Su Chen saw all of this and knew that Wang Yue was planning to deal with Director Li later.

Su Qingya came back with the contract very quickly and after checking it, she confirmed that it was correct this time.

It took less than ten minutes to sign the contract, and Su Chen immediately transferred two million to Wang Yue's account.

Originally, Wang Yue didn't want to accept the money, but their makeshift team didn't have a public account. As for Qin Nan and the others, they didn't have the courage to accept the money.

Both of them are still regretting what happened before.

Su Chen looked at the time and saw that it was almost one o'clock, so he suggested going out for dinner together.

Wang Yue and others agreed without thinking, and chose a location near the school.
