In fact, before coming, Fang Zhiqiang had been fully mentally prepared. No matter what kind of questioning or even abuse he faced from Xue Donglin, he would accept it because he deserved it, but no matter what, he would accept it. You must work hard to achieve your goals. The biggest purpose of coming to Xue Donglin today is to discuss financing. Fang Zhiqiang doesn't care what others think of him, nor what kind of person he will become in Xue Donglin's heart. He does this, Not only for the unquenched flame of hope in my heart, but also for the entire team who never gave up! Their persistence is priceless. For their persistence, Fang Zhiqiang is willing to risk everything. Even if they do not achieve the result they want in the end, at least they have tried hard. No matter when they recall it, this will be a beautiful period. memories.

"To be honest, Mr. Xue, I came to you this time. On the one hand, I want to apologize to you for the sake of understanding. On the other hand..." Although I have done enough psychological struggle, I can When the words came to his lips, Fang Zhiqiang paused. The next words were really difficult to say.

If it was the former Fang Zhiqiang, he would not even come to Xue Donglin at all, because this is simply a shame for himself. Such behavior will make him become a shameless person. No matter what others think of him as a beggar, no matter how others evaluate him, at least Fang Zhiqiang himself thinks so.

"What's going on? Why are you so coy now?" Xue Donglin was a little anxious. Seeing Fang Zhiqiang's hesitant look, he couldn't help but speak. asked.

“Mr. After landing, Fang Zhiqiang felt as if all his strength had been exhausted at this moment. Although his voice was very low, Fang Zhiqiang used a lot of strength.

"Financing? What do you mean?" Xue Donglin asked with an expression that he didn't understand at all.

"Now the R&D team is developing new products, which requires a large amount of funds. As you know, I invested all the money before and I can't get it back now, so..."

"I understand, you need money now, right?" Xue Donglin suddenly realized.

Seeing Fang Zhiqiang nodding, Xue Donglin looked sad again. After pondering for a moment, he slowly said: "However, my funds have not been recovered recently. I just invested in a project some time ago. For large customers, it is difficult to see results in a short period of time."

Fang Zhiqiang stared at Xue Donglin intently at this moment, with two thoughts in his mind, either Xue Donglin was deliberately making excuses and did not want to inject more capital into Mingda. , or that's the actual situation.

Whether it isEither way, it is the same for Fang Zhiqiang, because he still has to persist.

　“I understand, but there is really no better way now. Without your funding this time, I’m afraid our R&D team will really stop here. They have persisted for so long. I don’t want them to come back empty-handed and feel like they haven’t caught anything, which will make them collapse.”

Fang Zhiqiang continued to speak sincerely. In fact, Fang Zhiqiang had already said these words. He had thought about it a thousand times in his mind, but when he said it now, he still felt uncomfortable. In the past, when he faced Xue Donglin's offer of help, he would refuse it repeatedly, but now, he is so shameless. If those people in the past were to come to the door to ask for funding and see themselves like this, no one would be able to believe that this was the Fang Zhiqiang of the past, right?

After hearing this, Xue Donglin frowned, turned around and pondered for a long time, then sighed again, and then said: "About how much do you need?"

" At least three million." When Fang Zhiqiang heard Xue Donglin's words, he immediately became excited. It sounded like there was something going on, which made Fang Zhiqiang feel full of strength.

At present, the biggest problem of the scientific research team is the problem of funding. As long as this problem can be solved, their next work will progress much more smoothly, and the result they jointly expect will be closer and closer. , this is not only the expectation of Fang Zhiqiang himself, but also the expectation of their entire team.

Three million is actually not much. When Mingda was still there, this was just a trivial expense in the accounts. However, for Fang Zhiqiang now, it is like an astronomical expense. number.

Sometimes, Fang Zhiqiang can really feel that money is just a series of numbers. When there is it, and when it is not there, life does not change much, but Only when you are in urgent need will you discover that this is the biggest difference.

For Xue Donglin, it’s not much. Although the scale of his company is not as large as that of Mingda Group at its peak, after all, he is engaged in finance and often deals with money. Three million is a big deal for them. , naturally it’s nothing.

But he just didn’t know what Xue Donglin’s situation was now. After being silent for a while, he finally continued: “Well, I’ll have a cocktail party the day after tomorrow. Then, if you have time, follow me. Come and participate together? By the way, you can also get to know people in the Mingzhu Business District. This may be of great help to the future development of your team."

The answer given by Xue Donglin, Fang Zhiqiang was stunned. He had just guessed that Xue Donglin would refuse his request, but he did not refuse. Instead, he gave himself an ambiguous answer, but it was precisely because Xue Donglin did notThe unclear attitude made Fang Zhiqiang a little confused.

The cocktail party is an occasion that Fang Zhiqiang dislikes very much. When he used to run Mingda, Fang Zhiqiang was able to give in to such occasions, although his reputation among others was not good. But those things were never what Fang Zhiqiang needed.

"How is it?"

Looking at Fang Zhiqiang in a daze, Xue Donglin pondered for a moment and asked again.

Fang Zhiqiang raised his head and looked at Xue Donglin’s serious expression. He could see that Xue Donglin was not joking. In fact, he could also see that Xue Donglin deliberately did not use the three million Lend it to yourself, it's only three million, which is easily accessible to a company of Xue Donglin's size.

Fang Zhiqiang doesn’t know what Xue Donglin’s purpose is, but he is really anxious now. Although the R&D team has been stable recently and has not received any external interference, after all, the people of Juying We have noticed them, and we will definitely not give up tracking them during this time. Three days ago, the scientific research director said that the newly established system network was attacked by hackers. It seems that it was Juying's hands and feet.

"If this is the case, I will think of other ways. I urgently need the money now. I am afraid I can't wait for such a long time."

Fang Zhiqiang pondered for a moment and said this.

"Why are you in such a hurry? This method is a one-time solution. You should know it, Mr. Fang. Moreover, according to what you said, your team must be on the path of sustainable development. You were once Mingda, who is above you, even if you don’t have so many connections, you still have the foundation of Mingda there, so you don’t feel how important connections are to you, but it’s different now, Mingda is gone, you are As small teams that have just been formed, with no funds and no connections, how can you continue to develop?"

" Xue Donglin said anxiously.

In fact, Fang Zhiqiang knew in his heart that what Xue Donglin said made sense. Maybe he was really a little anxious. After thinking for a moment, Fang Zhiqiang finally nodded.

"That's right!" A smile finally appeared on Xue Donglin's face, and then he patted Fang Zhiqiang on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Mr. Fang, I still like the person who didn't know the heights of the world before. You, in fact, many times, self-confidence is very important for a man. Having this thing and not having it are completely the same. So, before I take you to this cocktail party, I hope you can Adjust your condition."

.

In fact, the most difficult person for everyone to discover and know is themselves. Others can see things clearly, but they may not be able to discover them. At least, Xue Donglin said this again at this moment These words made Fang Zhiqiang suddenly realize that he did seem to need a good adjustment.
