Chapter 107 Misunderstanding

It was October 7th.

Yahoo's stock price further declined to $45, and in just over half a month, Su Yehao's profit decreased by more than HK$40 million.

Since June, when the financial crisis broke out in Asia,

this was the first time Su Yehao himself had been impacted.

He thought he could stay out of it by going to the NASDAQ market, but now it seemed he had underestimated the close ties between international finance.

The money originally intended for bottom-fishing had already been invested in Silver Sea Software Company and in Vice President Zheng Yongwen's hands.

Faced with this round of decline, he could only stare blankly.

Fortunately, he was still in a profitable state, and Yahoo's prospects were well-secured, so it was just a short-term fluctuation.

Su Yehao hoped that this decline could last a little longer, so that he would have the opportunity to buy at the bottom, but he didn't know how much money would be left by then, from what he entrusted to his little aunt's ex-boyfriend to manage. This would affect Su Yehao's returns.

Su Yehao finally felt the sense of urgency, the storm was coming, and dark clouds were gathering.

After unexpectedly learning that there were only more than 600,000 internet users in mainland China, he had been changing his thinking in recent days.

He had been thinking about making money in the north, but now he was wondering whether he should find a way to compete directly with iCQ and AoL chat rooms, and strive to earn some US dollars.

If a free dumping strategy was adopted, there would definitely be a market.

The problem was that he didn't have enough money on hand for the time being, unless he cashed out some Yahoo stock.

Su Yehao had been tempted to do this more than once, but in the end, he couldn't make up his mind.

After all, he hadn't completely taken the Hong Kong market yet, and the product's functions weren't perfect enough. Now, it would be too risky to rush to someone else's battlefield and face a behemoth with a market value of hundreds of billions of US dollars.

It was very likely that after all the effort, he would end up losing a watermelon while picking up a sesame seed, and not get any benefits from either side.

If you were to ask how exclusive that nominally open market was, Su Yehao had witnessed it with his own eyes. What was even more likely was that as soon as it developed, it would be forced to give up its fruits.

He didn't need to consider these issues before, but now that he was trying to do business, he had to think more carefully and take a long-term view.

For example, instead of working himself to death, only to have someone else reap the rewards, it would be better to find a way to save more money first, and then reap other people's rewards in the future.

That would save a lot of trouble...

"You seem to be in a bad mood today?"

Nangong Tian held Su Yehao's arm, and the two walked side by side on the university campus.

Su Yehao ate pig intestine noodles and said dejectedly, "Nonsense, I shouldn't have turned on the computer this morning. I woke up and lost several million. Who would be happy?"

Knowing that Su Yehao was speculating in stocks, with a holding scale of up to more than HK$200 million at its peak, Nangong Tian comforted him:

"Stock speculation is about ups and downs. Since you didn't sell it, does that mean you think it will rise again? Temporary gains and losses don't count, you have to look at the final result."

"That's right..."

The two had a sweet relationship and chatted happily.

So much so that they almost forgot that Jiang Yu had also come to school with them this morning.

As the third wheel, Jiang Yu's expression was hopeless at the moment, so she simply turned a blind eye, changed to a small road, and took a shortcut across the grass.

An admirer of hers was waiting for Jiang Yu on the main road of the Business Management Department.

As soon as he saw her,

this handsome long-haired young man showed a bright smile, picked up the bag in his hand, and said, "Jiang Yu, I bought you breakfast again today, the best crab roe siu mai in Hong Kong."

Not caring about the eyes of others, he said this loudly, causing a nauseating "Aiyo" sound.

Some passing students even praised, "So considerate! I wish someone would pursue me like that!"

Jiang Yu had been popular since she was a child, and she had a lot of experience in rejecting others.

Since entering university, she had still attracted a large number of classmates and seniors, and had a tendency to become the campus belle.

However, Jiang Yu seemed very impatient with this senior named Zhang Zhu, mainly because the other party had been pestering her for days, and it was useless even after she explained it clearly.

Some girls liked this kind of romance, but Jiang Yu felt it was very tacky, like being plastered with a dog skin plaster that couldn't be torn off.

Su Yehao and Nangong Tian were not in the same major.

He had just separated from the little girl and was walking to the teaching building alone.

He saw that Jiang Yu had no choice but to point to Su Yehao and say to the senior named Zhang Zhu:

"I'm sorry, we are childhood sweethearts and have an arranged marriage. Please stay away from me in the future, my fiancé will be angry."

"???"

Suddenly became a fiancé.

Su Yehao was confused. He hadn't been to school recently and didn't know the situation.

Looking at the situation, he instantly guessed that someone was pestering Jiang Yu. Su Yehao chimed in and nodded, saying:

"Yes, her mother has already accepted a dowry of 10 million from me, and recently she owes more than 8 million in loans, which I have to pay off. Want to steal her away from me? Help me pay off the IOU first?"

Instantly imagining a "vampire" mother, Zhang Zhu's face turned green after hearing this.

He looked at Jiang Yu, sighed deeply, and dropped a sentence: "Sorry, I didn't know you were already engaged."

As soon as he finished speaking, he casually stuffed the crab roe siu mai to someone else and ran away.

Jiang Yu's face was also a little green.

After being said that by Su Yehao, her reputation was ruined, and it was estimated that the news would spread soon.

After the crowd dispersed, Jiang Yu quietly poked Su Yehao's chest with her elbow, gritted her teeth and said, "Couldn't you think of a better way to say it? When did my mother owe money? How am I going to hold my head up high in the future? You slandered me like this on the first day of school too!"

Su Yehao spread his hands and said:

"This is the best way, once and for all. After knowing your situation, if anyone still wants to pursue you, maybe it's true love. Of course, it may just be that they only want to date you and don't plan to go for the long term. Anyway, they are poor and don't have to worry about being dragged down by your family."

After hearing this, Jiang Yu felt that it seemed to make sense.

Anyway, she successfully got rid of the dog skin plaster, so she changed the subject and asked:

"Are you going home this weekend? I mean back to Casino, 1997. I didn't go back a few days ago, and I feel like my mom is in a bad mood. It's all your dad's fault, raising funds for investment. Her department is working overtime all day long, it's too tiring."

Before the troops move, the supplies go first.

Currently, the only project that needs to raise a lot of funds is to acquire land in Pengcheng to build a cultural tourism city.

After hearing this, Su Yehao guessed that the official signing should be in the next few days.

The Sihai International Cultural Tourism City project in Pengcheng had been discussed for half a year. Considering that it involved tens of billions of investment and involved multiple departments, bypassing the current land auction plan would inevitably delay time.

Thinking that he hadn't seen Yin Liuli for several days, and he could also ask his old man for news in person, Su Yehao replied, "Okay, you can come with me then, borrow my mom's helicopter."

In order to avoid being entangled by others, Jiang Yu found herself a "fiancé."

Su Yehao, as the shield, didn't think there was anything wrong at first, but during class, he found that many people were pointing and talking about him behind his back.

After all, he was considered a celebrity in the school, and the power of gossip should not be underestimated.

Guessing that a certain little jealousy jar might be overturned.

Su Yehao took out his newly bought Siemens color screen mobile phone, sent a text message to Nangong Tian, and took the lead to briefly explain the situation before the news spread.

Jiang Yu glanced at his mobile phone screen, chuckled, and teased, "You always say how great you are, but you still have to beg for mercy?"

Su Yehao retorted:

"What do you know? I call this respect and consideration. A real man should be like this..."
