Chapter 60 -60: There is Great Potential_1

After the banquet ended and the guests left, it was already late.

Some staff members gathered everyone around, “You guys must be hungry. Hurry up and eat. There’s lots of food, still warm too.”

Indeed, there was still plenty of food kept warm in the buffet heaters.

Thanks to their built-in heating function, the food still looked steamy and smelled heavenly.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, put down their trays, stretched their arms and legs. Standing for too long had been rather tiring.

“Wang Ye, these pork ribs are the best. Come quickly, let me get you a plate! I have been watching these since the beginning. This dish is the tastiest, yet the foreigners and the bosses don’t get it. Hardly anyone ate it, which works out perfectly for us,” Zhou Yuan beckoned from a distance, looking smug.

His dinner plate was filled to the brim with grilled pork ribs.

Perhaps it wasn’t that the foreigners and the Chinese bosses lacked taste. They might have simply felt that gnawing on ribs wasn’t quite becoming in this setting…

Wang Ye chuckled, not refusing Zhou Yuan’s offer. He also grabbed a plate, got some ribs, and mixed in a bit of other dishes.

Then, he found a chair, sat down, and started eating slowly.

After Zhou Yuan and Nalan Yaqi picked their food, they also brought their plates over.

“That’s all you’re eating? Won’t you be hungry? Please, don’t hold back. We’re all friends here, eat as you wish,” Zhou Yuan exclaimed, shooting a surprised look at Wang Ye’s serving.

“Alright, eat your food. Don’t eat too much at night, it’s not good for your health,” Wang Ye replied with a chuckle.

To be frank, the food here was really good!

It was much better than the Chinese restaurant downstairs and many that Wang Ye had eaten at back in China.

Of course, Wang Ye had never really dined at any fancy restaurants in China, his small hometown did not have any…

Zhou Yuan and Nalan Yaqi relished their meal, munching and admiring it in between bites.

“Hmm, the Embassy’s chef is incredible. If he were in China, he’d probably be cooking in a five-star hotel,” they remarked.

“The restaurant downstairs should hire this chef. Their food is just okay, barely passable for deceiving the Russians!” they joked.

Wang Ye ate slowly, lost in thought.

…

After everyone had feasted, the Embassy sent a van to take them back.

In the vehicle, Zhou Yuan revealed a secret, hugging his backpack and whispering to Wang Ye, “I scored something great! We’ll eat and drink it together some time.”

With that, he unzipped his backpack to reveal two red-and-white paper boxes.

Wang Ye recognized it at a glance, it was Moutai!

Surprised, he asked,”Where did you get this?”

“Hehe, remember how I was assigned to the white wine area? I saved two bottles that were left unopened. There’s no point in wasting them on the foreigners. Might as well bring them back to enjoy ourselves,” Zhou Yuan responded smugly.

For a moment, Wang Ye didn’t know how to respond…

All he could do was give him a thumbs up and praise, “Our class president is really something!”

Everyone was in high spirits that night. After the banquet, Zhou Yuan and Nalan Yaqi even managed to grab a chance to take a picture with Vice President Li.

The photo was now stored in his digital camera. Zhou Yuan planned to find a way to send it back to China, print it out, and hang it up on his living room wall.

Wang Ye did not join them for the photo opportunity at the time…

…

When they returned to the dorm, it was already past eleven at night.

Song Xiaogang hadn’t slept yet, probably because their banquet had only just ended too.

Seeing Wang Ye return, Song Xiaogang asked enviously, “Brother Ye, was the Embassy’s banquet exciting? The food must have been top-notch, right?”

As Wang Ye took off his coat, he casually replied, “It was okay, I suppose. How about you? How did you guys spend the evening?”

“The restaurant owner downstairs organized a party. Everyone contributed 300 rubles to join. The food was decent and we also had drinks, it was quite lively. Not only our preparatory course students, but many older students also attended. I had not expected Friendship University to have so many Chinese students studying there. I even managed to sell quite a few phone cards. Hehe,” Song Xiaogang replied with a silly grin.

Wang Ye was speechless. This guy could be quite determined. Even during a New Year’s Eve party, he didn’t forget to promote his phone cards…

…

With the New Year celebrations behind them, it was now February.

Wang Ye had not been particularly busy of late. He faithfully attended classes. Aside from delivering phone cards to Ruan Xiaozhu, Yanzi, and Lena, he hardly left the university.

For now, he hadn’t made an effort to search for other university distributors.

After all, there weren’t many Chinese students studying at those universities. Even if he did find a distributor, they wouldn’t be able to sell many phone cards.

Securing this “base” at Moscow University and Friendship University was more than enough.

As for the larger market, he didn’t yet have the capacity to break into it. He would have to strategize over a longer period…

On the 15th, Wang Ye received a phone call from Xiao Hu.

“Brother Ye, it’s all set! The registration procedures for both companies are complete. When you have time, let’s all go and check out the office. There might be some interior arrangements needed,” Xiao Hu excitedly said on the phone.

People often say that Russians are sluggish. They say that Russians procrastinate when they’re given tasks to do.

However, that’s not entirely true.

Perhaps it’s true for schools, hospitals, and government offices.

A minor task would ordinarily be dragged out for one or two months.

But when you pay them to help you with something, their efficiency is astonishing!

The money spent on hiring someone to help register the company was well invested. Everything was sorted out in less than a month.

“Great, let’s make it tomorrow then. We can all go check out the office of the study abroad agency and meet the other shareholders,” Wang Ye said with a chuckle.

…

On the morning of February 16th, Nalan Yaqi, Wang Dan, and Xiao Hu came to Wang Ye’s dorm.

They planned to visit the Alpha Hotel together today.

It’s not exactly the company’s opening date since the paperwork was just done, the office wasn’t furnished yet, and the staff wasn’t in place.

However, now that the paperwork was done, Wang Ye could formally start his operation!

They took a taxi straight to the Alpha Hotel. As soon as they reached the entrance, they saw Liu Jun was already there, leaning against his dented Audi and smoking.

“Brother Liu, how long have you been waiting?” Wang Ye greeted with a smile.

Liu Jun stubbed out his cigarette and came over.

He’d arrived early today, as he couldn’t wait!

After the conversation with Wang Ye that day, Liu Jun agreed to invest 10,000 US dollars. However, he hadn’t fully committed to quitting his job and starting this new venture with Wang Ye.

The arrangements were not yet in place, so he didn’t want to act prematurely.

But a few days later, Wang Ye called him to say he found a few new shareholders. Start-up capital had now reached 40,000 US dollars!

In addition, they had secured an office space in the Alpha Hotel, spanning around 100 square meters. They could also “borrow” some employees from the new shareholders’ companies to fill out the team…

Additionally, Wang Ye had subtly hinted about the family background of the new shareholder, Wang Dan…

Old fox Liu Jun immediately saw what was going on.

This thing is set!

It certainly has great potential…
