Chapter 291
The clouds dissipate and the rain dissipates
The wind is coming and the rain is coming.
It rained all night and it still showed no intention of stopping the next day.
It is a bit rare for Jiangcheng in this season.
Fortunately, the rain subsided a bit at noon, and Lei Jun finally made it back without missing the signing ceremony in the afternoon.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, in Beike's conference room, Tencent's US$100 million financing agreement was officially signed.
The whole process was a bit calm, there was no tension as before, and all parties were in harmony.
After declining Chen Zhihe and Lei Jun's invitation to take them to the airport, Lin Xue and his party left quickly.
There will be many opportunities to interact with each other in the future, and this time is no exception.
There were more things to deal with later, so Lin Xue and the others returned to Shenzhen City in the rain.
Investing one hundred million US dollars is not a small amount. Tencent is a listed company and needs the other party to disclose relevant information. They need to bring the news back as soon as possible.
Moreover, relevant publicity must also keep up. From the moment the contract is signed, Tencent will make efforts in publicity for Byke.
This first wave of publicity is the news of the success of Baike’s financing.
Not to mention Lin Xue and the others who returned to Shenzhen City without stopping, after they left, the whole company was in a state of excitement.
Everyone knows that the big boss appears suddenly and frequently recently, but they don't know what it is.
Lei Jun also kept the news secret. It would be good if the financing was successful, but if it failed, it would be very damaging to morale.
Therefore, before the contract was signed, except for a limited number of people in the company, no one knew what was going on.
Once the contract is signed, it is finalized and there is no need to conceal it.
Everyone who heard the news was a little shocked, and after realizing it, they all cheered.
At this time, the clouds and rain disappeared outside the window, and the sun shone in.
The joy and enthusiasm among everyone was no less than the summer temperature in Jiangcheng at this time.
Especially when Chen Zhihe and Lei Jun announced that they would send a big red envelope to all employees of the company, the cheers reached a climax.
Next door to Baike is a financial company. Hearing the commotion on Baike's side, some people couldn't help but came over curiously to find out what happened.
The person at the reception desk was a young girl who had just graduated, named Xu Wei. Her face immediately turned pale when she looked at the people who came over to inquire.
She knew the person who came here, her name was Zeng Jing. She was the receptionist of the company next door. She usually wore professional attire, high heels and exquisite makeup.
All of the people who came here just graduated this year and got to know each other when they came for the interview.
At first, both of them went to the financial company next door, but Zeng Jing was slightly better because of her height and appearance.
It happened that the original receptionist of Beike was pregnant and was recruiting a receptionist. Xu Wei didn't want to bother too much, so she came over to give it a try and successfully joined the job.
They usually work on the same floor and are both at the front desk, but due to previous competition, she was often squeezed out by the other.
After all, finance sounds high-end, and their treatment is indeed good. Even if they are a front desk employee, they look down upon the "rental bike" guy next door.
Yes, the financial company next door always teases its customers by calling them “rental bicycles”.
Apart from the words, it is just a joke.
"What's wrong with your company? You're not working. Are you crazy?" Zeng Jing asked curiously, glancing in from time to time to see what was going on.
In fact, she was also encouraged to come here to inquire about the news, but as a newcomer, she did not resent it, but was happy to go there.
Every time she saw Xu Wei feeling deflated across from her, she felt very happy.
"Don't ask if you shouldn't. Is your company so idle?" Xu Wei replied unceremoniously.
Zeng Jing was not annoyed either. She had not forgotten the purpose of coming: "Isn't it because someone in your company bought a lottery ticket and won the prize?"
She was somewhat scheming and probably aroused Wei Wei a little.
Xu Wei definitely couldn't bear it. It was okay to be looked down upon by others, but this time he actually said he won a lottery ticket.
She immediately became a little angry, but she felt that there was no need to fight with the other party, so she pretended to sigh and said: "Well, the boss of our company won a prize of 100 million, which is still US dollars. So, the boss decided to give everyone a prize
Big big red envelope.”
She heard clearly just now that everyone in the company, including her, received red envelopes, and the amount was enviable.
She has only been in the company for a short time, and this is simply pie in the sky.
Zeng Jing naturally didn't believe it, and said with a look of disdain: "You can't brag, how can you sell a lottery ticket worth 100 million US dollars?"
Xu Wei smiled and said: "We just won. Anyway, you will know it by watching the news tomorrow."
She knew Zeng Jing was here to inquire about information, so she refused to tell her and just hung her up.
"Also, if you have nothing to do, leave quickly. There are people waiting around. Don't stay. Be careful that your company deducts your money." Seeing that Zeng Jing wanted to continue asking, Xu Wei issued an eviction order.
"Humph, what's so great about a broken front desk?" Seeing that she was speechless, Zeng Jing turned around and walked away, as if she was not the front desk.
Walking halfway, Zeng Jing was a little confused. She didn't ask anything when she went out. She was afraid that it would be difficult to communicate when she went back.
After thinking about it for a while, she heard the call of a male employee who came to her to ask for WeChat a few days ago. She thought about it and took out her mobile phone.
Although she sent the other party WeChat and the other party added her, Zeng Jing was not approved.
Sending him a WeChat message was purely for the sake of face, and she didn't like him at all.
She was a bit naive, but she was also a programmer. At that time, she thought that working as a programmer in a bicycle rental company might not have a promising future.
Now, in order to inquire about information, she felt that it was okay to pass by. If the other party pestered him, he would be blacklisted and die at worst.
After passing the call, the other party responded to her message quickly, with a smiley face and "Hello" behind it.
Rolling her eyes, Zeng Jing replied: Hello.
The other party quickly replied: Nice to meet you, how did you pass? My name is Zhang Cheng, is your name Zeng Jing?
Zeng Jing: Well, yes. I didn’t see you adding me yesterday, I’m sorry.
Zhang Cheng: It’s okay, it’s okay, just add it.
Too lazy to talk to Zhang Cheng, Zeng Jing went straight to the topic: What happened in your company? I heard a lot of commotion.
Zhang Cheng sent a happy expression, and then said: Our company has raised 100 million U.S. dollars, and the boss said he would give each of us a big red envelope.
Zeng Jing's expression froze and she asked: Big red envelope? How big is it?
Zhang Cheng: It is said that there are 10,000 new employees. I am an old employee, so it should be more.
Zeng Jing's heart skipped a beat and asked: Did your front desk also post it?
Zhang Cheng: Send it, send it to everyone, the boss has said it, everyone has it.
Zeng Jing: Your company is so generous. Okay, I have something to do. Let’s talk next time.
Zhang Cheng: Okay, okay, you go ahead.
Immediately afterwards, Zhang Cheng sent another message: I’ll treat you to dinner when I’m free.
Zeng Jing did not reply to this message, she just stood there and looked at her phone blankly.
The thought of Xu Wei getting a red envelope of 10,000 yuan made her feel uncomfortable, and she was not in the mood to talk to Zhang Cheng.
