Taking advantage of the beauty being poor, fooling her into being my girlfriend

Chapter 275 - 275: 275: Can’t Talk Tough in front of

The company Jiang Xu was going to was called ‘Mei Zhu Mobile Company’.

This was one of the few companies in Magic City adamant about its independent mobile technology research and development.

Unlike other mobile manufacturers who heavily depended on technology provided by others.

Before the release of the iPhone and other competitive models, domestically produced counterfeit mobile phones dominated the market.

And surprisingly, they were doing quite well.

Unfortunately, this led to hard times for this company.

iPhone had its breakthrough release in 2011.

At the time, it detonated the technology industry.

And it even carried out a leading role for over ten years.

If it wasn’t for the unexpected appearance of the Huawei phone, many domestic mobile manufacturers would’ve been left helpless.

There were still two years before the release of the iPhone.

Jiang Xu wanted to get a head start.

He planned to release the world’s first touchscreen phone before them.

Jiang Xu took a taxi to the headquarters of Mei Zhu Mobile.

On the way, he had grabbed their company’s newest mobile phone.

The office building was a run-down, three-story building.

Through the reception desk, Jiang Xu was able to get in touch with the founder of Mei Zhu Mobile, Wang Zhang.

He was an unkempt man, but his eyes brimmed with vitality.

Jiang Xu couldn’t help but reflect on the past and present of Mei Zhu Mobile.

If it weren’t for a certain decision a few years later involving introducing a wolf into the fold…

Mei Zhu Mobile would definitely have made its name as one of the prides of domestic mobile manufacturing.

What a pity.

This time, however, Jiang Xu was stepping in to lend a hand, determined to prevent the tragedies from the past from resurfacing in this timeline.

“Hello, I’m Wang Zhang, may I ask who you are?”

Wang Zhang observed the young man, Jiang Xu, with curiosity.

Jiang Xu knew Wang Zhang was a type of technical man.

After briefly introducing himself, Jiang Xu directly stated his purpose for the visit.

“CEO Wang, I hope to invest in Mei Zhu Mobile.

I will only provide funds and expect dividends in return, I don’t want to participate in any other aspects of the company.”

Wang Zhang was indeed very capable.

His mentality was quite similar to that of Huawei’s.

Both centered their core thoughts around technology.

Plus, he had pride.

During his prime years, he had bravely decided to reject the Xiaochong Chip in protest of Xiaochong Company’s overbearing contracts.

Even though he wasn’t successful in his protest.

He still stood far above compared to some others.

In February of that year, Mei Zhu Mobile released a smartphone called Mei Zhu M8.

Its design was somewhat inspired by the iPhone 4.

Regardless, it looked good and was well received by consumers.

The M8 phone held a nostalgic place in many users’ hearts.

However, Wang Zhang had spent most of the company’s funds on research and development.

This led to the neglected state of the office building, resembling a slum.

Upon hearing Jiang Xu’s intentions.

Wang Zhang’s heart leaped with joy.

He was currently lacking funds for research and development.

However, he was also skeptical about Jiang Xu’s financial strength.

But in the next second, his doubts disappeared and were replaced with ecstasy.

“CEO Wang, I’ve come with sincerity. I’m offering a 200 million investment for a 10% stake in the company.”

“Agreed, we can sign the contract now!”

Unlike typical businessmen, Wang Zhang was not shrewd.

In reality, if he had bargained, he could have potentially gotten more shares for the same investment.

However, he believed that the price was already rather fair.

With this 200 million for research and development, the several projects he had on hand could all continue.

Jiang Xu was taken aback.

He never expected Wang Zhang to be so straightforward, not negotiating the price whatsoever.

He liked working with such straightforward people.

It was simple and convenient.

Afterward, Wang Zhang led Jiang Xu for a tour around the production workshop.

Compared to the dilapidated office building.

The Mei Zhu Mobile production workshop had an advanced and technological feel.

He had invested all his money into this venture.

After the tour, Jiang Xu prepared to leave.

Jiang Xu made an agreement with Wang Zhang; they would officially sign the contract the following day with their teams present.

Before leaving,

Jiang Xu thought for a moment and then said to Wang Zhang, “Mr. Wang, you don’t need to worry about the research and development funds.

If this sum of money is used up and I see progress, I will continue to invest.

But I have one condition: you cannot accept investments from anyone or any other organizations except me.”

This way, it can prevent Mr. Wang from ‘bringing another man home’ in the future.

As long as he isn’t short on funds, then others wouldn’t even dream of getting a finger in.

“No problem.” Wang Zhang agreed immediately.

After leaving Mei Zhu Company, Jiang Xu made a phone call.

He asked his company to arrange for the relevant personnel to accompany him the next day to sign the contract.

Jiang Xu played with the Mei Zhu M8.

In this era where knock-off phones ran rampant,

the quality, feel, and technological sense of this phone were all pretty good.

It was not expensive either, just two thousand five hundred.

Hopefully, it would be able to carve out a share of the market before the next iSe model was launched.

By then, they could even organize a global launch event.

Not much was needed.

Just stealing part of their ‘opportunity’ would be enough to fill Jiang Xu’s stomach.

Then An Nuonuo called him.

“Brother Xu… how long until you’re home?”

She had clearly just woken up and her voice was still tinged with sleepiness, which warmed his heart.

“I’m on my way back now, what do you want to eat? I’ll bring it for you.”

“Anything is fine, buy what you like to eat.”

“Okay, see you in a bit.”

Jiang Xu bought some stir-fried rice cakes from a roadside vendor.

When he got home, he saw An Nuonuo mopping the floor.

The weather was getting hotter, and she was wearing a pair of shorts and a white blouse at home.

The shorts hugged her sexy, hot figure,

but she had an innocent, cute face.

Her eyes most of the time gave off an innocent look.

These two extreme contrasts when put together,

provided a sizeable visual impact.

“You’re back.”

The girl put down the mop,

And flung herself into Jiang Xu’s arms like a bird returning to its nest.

A faint, sweet scent entered Jiang Xu’s nose.

Jiang Xu gently patted her back, “Did you miss me?”

“Didn’t miss… I just… just missed a little…”

She wanted to put on a tough front, but found that she couldn’t, not in front of Jiang Xu.

Jiang Xu burst into laughter.

He picked up An Nuonuo and placed her on the sofa, and then…

Ten minutes later, they both sat down to have dinner.

An Nuonuo pursed her lips and said weakly, “Can we make it a bit quicker next time?”

Jiang Xu: “Why?”

An Nuonuo, slightly embarrassed, said, “Just… just… oh never mind…”

“Ha ha ha!” Jiang Xu laughed out loud, “Don’t worry, you’ll get used to it after a few more tries.”

An Nuonuo:

After dinner, Jiang Xu took An Nuonuo to see a movie.

Magic City was much more bustling than Jiang City.

There were many more fun things to do.

Many of them, An Nuonuo was seeing for the first time, and it was a novel experience for her.

They played until past ten in the evening, then dragged their tired bodies home.

Next day.

Jiang Xu took his team to Mei Zhu Company to sign the contract,

but unexpectedly, he ran into someone he didn’t expect to see….
