Mistaking My Sister-In-Law for My Wife After Getting Drunk!

Chapter 523 Song Changqing

Xu Yang said, "President, I’ve only graduated a year ago, would it be appropriate for me to speak? There must be many seniors who are more outstanding than I am, I just got a bit lucky, made some money in business, that’s all. I think our school has quite a few seniors who have achieved great things officially and academically. It would be more suitable for them to give the speech."

The president replied, "Xu, you’re being too modest. Of course, we have considered your concerns. You are representing the business achievements, and there will be other representatives speaking about different areas. I truly hope you can take the stage. The fact that you’ve achieved so much within just a year will undoubtedly inspire your juniors.

You may not know this, but on our school’s internal network, a student poll was conducted on which outstanding alumni they most wanted to see attend the anniversary celebration, and you were among the top."

Xu Yang was silent for a moment before saying, "Alright, I’ll give the speech."

With the president saying so, he knew he couldn’t refuse.

Fortunately, he had absolute confidence. Giving a speech on stage was nothing to him.

"Good!" The president nodded approvingly.

After chatting a bit more, Xu Yang and his two companions left the president’s office.

The president had other matters to attend to, he couldn’t stay in his office chatting with the president all day.

Gao Lang also breathed a sigh of relief, now that matters were settled.

As they left the administrative building, Gao Lang said, "Xu Yang, the ceremony starts at ten o’clock and it will be held at the school’s art hall. I have some things to take care of, so I can’t keep you company for now. When it’s time, I’ll come find you and take you over there."

He wasn’t actually busy, and could have stayed with Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin.

But he felt like a third wheel walking with them, so he made an excuse to leave.

"Okay," Xu Yang nodded.

Once Gao Lang had left, Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin strolled around the campus.

Returning to their alma mater after a year.

Though not a long time had passed, it was still quite sentimental.

When Xu Yang graduated last year, all he thought about was finding a good job and then marrying Zhao Yulu.

But life is unpredictable. Zhao Yulu broke up with him, he got the system, and ended up with Zhao Yuxin.

In just one year, with the help of the system, he became a billionaire.

Among the graduates of Jiangcheng University, he was the one with the highest commercial achievement.

Life’s encounters are truly unfathomable.

While strolling, someone approached them.

When Xu Yang saw this person, his eyes lit up.

This person was Song Changqing, the founder of Starry Sky Tech.

Song Changqing came over and greeted enthusiastically, "President Xu, hello, I’m Song Changqing, graduated in ’13. I wanted to get to know you. Do you have time to chat?"

Xu Yang smiled and replied, "Senior Song, I know you. Your Starry Sky Tech is quite famous in the tech industry. I knew you would be coming back for the anniversary, and I was actually looking for an opportunity to meet you."

"Really?" Song Changqing’s eyes brightened, "President Xu, are you familiar with our Starry Sky Tech?"

Attending the anniversary, his main intent was to see if there were any capable alumni he could draw investment from.

Starry Sky Tech was in a tough position at the moment, burning through cash with regular products that weren’t sustaining R&D costs.

The company was developing an artificial intelligence robot.

If they could develop it, it would be the most intelligent AI robot in the world.

But when exactly it would be developed, there was no timetable, and it needed a lot more money.

It used to be easier to attract investment, but now, other investors were losing confidence in his ability to develop that AI robot.

So, he approached various venture capital firms, but no one was willing to invest anymore.

Recently, he had been busy trying to secure funding. Continue reading at NovelBin.Côm

If he couldn’t raise the funds, R&D wouldn’t continue, and the company would have to shut down.

He couldn’t bear to see his efforts go to waste.

Over the past year, Xu Yang had been making waves in the business world.

He had planned to visit him in person.

Then hearing that Xu Yang would also be attending the school celebration, he thought it better to meet during the event.

He was thinking about finding an opportunity to get acquainted with Xu Yang later.

Unexpectedly, while wandering around, he saw Xu Yang and Zhao Yuxin strolling around the campus, and he wouldn’t miss such an opportunity.

So, he approached directly.

Xu Yang nodded and said, "I know a bit, but not in detail, as I’m not in your industry."

Song Changqing said straightforwardly, "President Xu, I don’t want to beat around the bush. Apart from wanting to get to know you, I also wanted to ask if you would be interested in investing in my company."

Xu Yang feigned surprise, "Senior Song, is your company looking for funding?"

"Yes, my company is now..." Song Changqing briefly explained the situation before adding, "President Xu, I’m thinking of selling 30% of my company’s shares. The current market value is ten billion, so 30% would be three billion. Are you interested in investing?"

"The most intelligent AI robot in the world?" Xu Yang pretended to ponder for a moment, then said, "Senior Song, how about this, I’ll come to your company tomorrow to take a look. If there are no issues, I will invest."

Song Changqing’s eyes shone, "Of course, that’s not a problem."

Xu Yang’s interest in visiting showed his willingness to invest.

If Xu Yang went to the company, Song Changqing was confident he could persuade him to invest.

Xu Yang said, "I might bring a few friends along, and we might invest together. Is that okay?"

He planned to bring Wang Xiaocong, Jiang Yuheng, and others for a joint investment.

Starry Sky Tech would be a trillion-level enterprise in the future, and as it grew, other major investors would inevitably covet it.

Bringing Wang Xiaocong and others would fend off some of those people to an extent.

At least not just any Tom, Dick, or Harry would jump out to snatch shares of Starry Sky Tech, so he’d only have to deal with the heavyweights.

"Of course, that’s not a problem."

Hearing Xu Yang say so made Song Changqing even happier.

He knew Xu Yang had a strong network and the investors he brought would definitely be influential, adding more security to the company’s development.

After chatting for a while and setting a time to meet the next day, just then, Gao Lang called Xu Yang to his office.

Thus, Xu Yang said goodbye to Song Changqing and went to Gao Lang’s office with Zhao Yuxin.

Inside Gao Lang’s office, besides Gao Lang, there was another guy.

Gao Lang introduced him, "Xu Yang, Yuxin, let me introduce you. This is Lu Dingyu, five years your senior and also my student. He has founded a new media company. Since you’re all in business, you should interact more in the future."

Before Xu Yang’s success, Lu Dingyu was one of the most outstanding students he had mentored.

He was very interested in Lu Dingyu’s development and, knowing that Lu was keen to meet Xu Yang, he acted as a facilitator.
