Chapter 515: Chapter 229 Gu Tongshu: This Loach is So Hard to Catch!_2
Now the temporary meeting room is too shabby; Cheese feels it’s not fitting for Huai’s presence.
Su Huai didn’t mind, "Alright, you take care of it. By the way, have you asked Li Jiajia to come check out the headquarters?"
"I’ve already discussed it with her. Once everything is renovated and the company officially opens, she will come over to join everyone."
"Is everything good on her end?"
"Very good!"
Cheese rarely used the word "very" about his own work but was jubilantly showing off to Su Huai.
"She is very satisfied with the assistant and the photographer we sent over. Professional, meticulous, patient, always striving for perfection... When I was choosing people, I specifically considered her personality, hoping to create rapport and an understanding beyond work. Now, her attitude towards me has finally improved!"
What a humble general manager...
Su Huai almost couldn’t help but chuckle, but out of respect, he didn’t let it show.
She really did a beautiful job, committed, and focused on the right things; still, it’s worth praising a bit.
"Brother Zhi, you’ve put in the effort; it seems our business has indeed activated your energy, which is very good. Keep it up!"
If you only look at the age and appearance, this scene would be quite discordant.
But neither of the two parties felt that way. Cheese was excited as if injected with chicken blood and then decided to work overtime until late at night...
As for Su Huai, he strolled over to West Mountain Number Courtyard to see Gu.
Before arriving at the neighborhood, he made a call. Therefore, Wu surprisingly drove to the main entrance to pick him up. This treatment was truly unmatched. freewēbnoveℓ.com
"Hey, why did you have to bother yourself?"
Su Huai was even more polite to Wu than to Old Gu.
Wu didn’t beat around the bush and directly reminded him, "The boss is at home, be careful."
What, I have to be careful of him?
Has the world turned upside down?
Su Huai scornfully thought, but his face was obedient as he entered and started looking for Gu Tongshu, greeting him respectfully after finding him.
"Uncle Gu, good evening, I hope I’m not disturbing your rest?"
"..."
Gu Tongshu had a look of sickly sweetness on his face.
But, actually, he could have avoided seeing Su Huai; out of sight, out of mind. However, he couldn’t contain himself and insistently waited in the hall for Su Huai, despite being annoyed.
"Yueyue is upstairs getting an IV."
With Gu not around, Old Gu didn’t have to continue with the pretense and showed Su Huai a colder attitude, not very friendly, but still distant without being rude or confrontational.
"How did it go on your trip to the south? Buru going on with the company."
However, from this single question, it was clear he was still acting.
Everything’s tracked and known to you, why pretend?
Su Huai really didn’t know and felt this kind of casual concern was completely normal. So he replied with similarly casual politeness, "Thanks to the foundation you’ve laid, the negotiations with L’Oréal and Alibaba went smoothly, and we should soon be able to move on to the implementation phase."
A hint of interest appeared on Gu Tongshu’s face at just the right degree, "Oh? What exactly are you planning? Would it be convenient to discuss your intentions with me?"
This posture was too deceiving.
Who is Gu Tongshu?
The leader of a large conglomerate, his status in the business world could be likened to that of Zhang Lei and Shen Nanpeng—perhaps even higher.
Such a big shot showing interest in a young man’s entrepreneurial project and willing to give him a chance to express his thoughts—what young man wouldn’t be excited? Wouldn’t want to show off? Wouldn’t want to gain recognition?
If it were the younger Su Huai, he wouldn’t be able to resist.
Unfortunately, he was no longer a young man.
"It’s just a live broadcast talent agency, a small venture, not worth mentioning."
Su Huai responded with a submissive stance and didn’t elaborate even a single word further.
"Discussing this with you would simply be wasting your time. When I actually achieve something noteworthy, I’ll ask for your criticism and advice."
Gu Tongshu was immediately annoyed.
Is this kid made of eel or what?
Can’t get a grip on him?
But Old Gu couldn’t just drag the conversation out of him, revealing that he was very interested in Su Huai’s business progress.
So, Gu Tongshu had to keep up the indifferent act, "Oh, well, keep it up. If you need any help, just let me know. My offer last time is always valid."
The real clever schemes are always like an old sow wearing a brassiere, one after another.
But Su Huai’s first reaction was always caution: Huh, why is Old Man so keen on dropping gold coins again? He’s not exactly a big philanthropist...
Just as Gu Tongshu knew Su Huai very well, Su Huai also knew Old Gu very well, aware that the old man was always up to no good.
Therefore, he probed without showing any signs.
"If we’re talking about difficulties, there’s indeed a little bit..."
Su Huai dragged out his words, then suddenly stopped.
Unfortunately, Old Gu didn’t fall for it, comforting him with, "Starting a business is like that, there are always unexpected problems that arise. It’s training and tempering. The most important thing is to keep a positive mindset."
A bunch of correct but useless talk, without giving anything away.
Su Huai still suspected that he knew something, but since he couldn’t probe it out, he couldn’t confirm it.
So he baited a bit more.
"You speak very well, that’s so true! Right now, I feel that dealing with big companies is just too difficult, there’s always a tangle of interests that gives you a headache..."
A little bit of sighing, with a little bit of visible worry, should be enough, right?
Of course, Gu Tongshu knew the little sly one was talking about Alibaba, but he sneered internally and deliberately didn’t go along with the conversation.
"The most unpredictable thing in this world is the human heart, but the biggest profit is also from controlling it. You’ve got the potential, I believe in you!"
