Chapter 34

At eight o'clock in the evening, Liu Liu Jingrong returned home from school and saw the exquisite box on the table at first glance.

He walked closer and discovered it was a Philips electric shaver.

"Where's your sister-in-law? Can she still remember to buy me a new one?" Liu Liu Jingrong held the box, sat on the sofa, and said with a smile to his younger sister Liu Liu Wan Ying, who was watching TV.

Liu Liu Wan Ying replied lazily: "Sister-in-law took Shanshan for a walk outside. I said it was hot, but she insisted on going out. As for this shaver, it was bought for you by your beloved eldest disciple."

Liu Liu Jingrong's hand paused, and after a moment, he "hmphed": "He does have heart."

"Yeah, otherwise, why would he specifically buy a shaver? It's probably because he noticed it last time or whenever he came over. That shaver of yours is also something—missing a head and still using it." Liu Liu Wan Ying praised, "He really is quite attentive."

Liu Liu Jingrong touched the new shaver without trying it and sighed deeply: "How much money can he earn, and he's already buying me things."

"Yeah, so he has to go to Shenzhen to earn money. This is probably a farewell gift for his teacher." Liu Wanying said with a smile, "I hope he can earn big money in Shenzhen so that his teacher won't look down on him."

"I don't look down on him, I'm just..." Liu Jingrong frowned, "Wait, why does he have to go to Shenzhen? Did something happen in Jinling again?"

Liu Liu Wan Ying said concisely: "Business development needs it. If he doesn't expand the scale quickly, he'll probably die."

Liu Liu Jingrong was shocked and wanted to hear more specific details, but his sister had no interest in chatting more and just wanted to watch TV, so he could only physically cut the power and turn off the TV with the remote.

Liu Liu Wan Ying was helpless and described the business situation and potential crisis to her brother, who still cared about his student, as well as the founder of Romance Net's thinking on how to respond.

Liu Liu Jingrong was even more astonished: "If a company like NetEase does the same business, then what else can he do? What kind of marketing targeting university students is that? Isn't that a delusion? If I knew this company distributed all its money to the salespeople, I would definitely worry about whether it could still redeem my share when the time comes. How could I possibly still go and buy it?"

Regarding his eldest disciple's company, he had already figured out what was going on; it really wasn't complicated in itself.

So, he could also talk about the problems inside at this moment.

Liu Liu Wan Ying shook her head: "So, if you don't buy it, then don't. Naturally, there will be those willing to buy it who will. His business is aimed at a specific group, and the counter-attack by leveraging momentum he's considering is the same."

Liu Liu Jingrong stared at his sister, and three words were written on his face—I don't understand.

"100 couples—do you think he's doing business to get 100 orders? Of course not. It's good enough to get 5 of them," Liu Liu Wan Ying could only explain patiently, "As for the other 95 couples, if they don't trust him, let them not trust him. Having these 5 orders is enough."

"Similarly, if NetEase pushes an identical business after reporting on Romance Net, and Seeing Yu Xing rises to counter-attack, he's facing 1,000 or 10,000 students. If 90% of these students question his project and think he can't make it to the end, he only needs 10% to be willing to believe and support him."

"What's more, I feel that this proportion will probably be higher. In that situation, some potential customers are no longer thinking from the perspective of a customer, but are prioritizing identifying with the bullied university student entrepreneur team."

"As long as there's noise, whether it's positive or negative, Seeing Yu Xing can achieve his goal. He just wants to pull in some customers."

Liu Liu Wan Ying talked about the things she could see.

Liu Liu Jingrong frowned deeply and remained silent.

After a long time, he asked: "Can this work? NetEase is such a big company; can he fight against NetEase? Where did he learn these messy methods?"

"Hey, you old stubborn!" Liu Liu Wan Ying was no longer lying lazily, but sat up straight and criticized, "Given the current potential threat, compared to NetEase, Seeing Yu Xing is undoubtedly the good guy."

"Could it be that when a bad guy does evil, he can put down the bloody knife and turn around to become a Buddha, but this good guy has to be pointed at by thousands of people just for using some methods?"

"These aren't messy methods; it's Seeing Yu Xing only being able to find the possibility of a counter-attack within limited resources!"

"He also wants a teacher who can invest in him, a girlfriend with resources in her hands, and a mature team, but he only has these few cards in his hand, so he can only dig for the maximum potential."

"Objectively speaking, I think what he's considering is already extremely outstanding. If he encounters any accidents or extra factors in the middle, that's also..."

"Not a failure of strategy."

That was how Liu Liu Wan Ying evaluated the founder of Romance Net.

Liu Liu Jingrong sighed: "The problem is, he's just such a small stall, and NetEase is such a big company."

"Laozi said to overcome the hard with the soft—what does he rely on?" Liu Liu Wan Ying smiled, "He relies on inner resilience. Seeing Yu Xing is quite resilient. Actually, I think he should be able to reach his final goal; it's just a matter of earning more or less."

Liu Liu Jingrong stood up: "I hope so."

At this moment, Liu Liu Wan Ying wasn't speaking to her brother, but rather to herself, thoughtfully: "I'm actually thinking about another question: Seeing Yu Xing can find ways to use his cards even when he has nothing in his hand right now. If he really has some decent cards in his hand, what kind of things could he stir up?"

"I'm going to find your sister-in-law; it's quite hot tonight." Liu Liu Jingrong put the box back on the table and shook his head as he went out.

Liu Liu Wan Ying didn't pay attention and wanted to continue watching TV, but after fumbling around on the sofa, she just couldn't find the remote: "Hey, where's my remote?"

Liu Liu Jingrong left the house and didn't go to find his wife. His left hand took a phone out of his pocket—wait, he took out a remote, and only after his right hand reached in did he take out his phone.

He strolled slowly, thinking left and right, but the call was never made. He only sent a concise text message to his eldest disciple: "Don't break the law, take care of your health; if it doesn't work out, come back and work for me."

Liu Liu Jingrong waited for a long while before receiving a reply from his eldest disciple.

—Understood. Take care of Master's wife and Shanshan. Wishing Master a happy family and a life that is always full of bliss.

Liu Liu Jingrong sighed, feeling that his eldest disciple must have deliberated for a long time after receiving his text before replying so slowly.

After he had walked two steps, he suddenly received a second text message.

—By the way, if my mom calls Master, please help me cover the lie and just say I'm in the lab. Thank you, Master.

Liu Liu Jingrong put away his phone with an expressionless face. Rebellious disciple! Rebellious disciple!

With the increase in threats from NetEase or the outside world, Romance Net must accelerate its development speed.

Yu Xing finished handling matters in Jinling and communicated repeatedly with Zhong Zhiling, Lu Haiying, and the team leaders. Despite his inner worries, he still took Feng Zongze and Cui Jingwei, who were willing to follow him on the expedition, and boarded the bus to Shenzhen on Saturday.

The distance between Jinling and Shenzhen is only 300 kilometers, and it takes less than half a day to arrive.

However, Feng Zongze, who had never been to Shenzhen, was still full of curiosity and excitement about that international metropolis.

"President Yu," Feng Zongze changed his form of address according to his senior's request, "Where in Shenzhen are we going?"

Seeing Yu Xing sat on the bus with his eyes closed to rest: "Songjiang University Town."

Feng Feng Zongze followed up: "Why there?"

Seeing Yu Xing answered concisely: "There are no walls there."

Upon hearing such an answer, Feng Feng Zongze was filled with awe. As expected of his senior, as expected of President Yu; his words carried metaphors and were truly full of charm.

It was just that when he really arrived at the Songjiang University Town in Shenzhen, he was suddenly a bit dumbfounded.

"President Yu, no, there really are no walls here?" Feng Feng Zongze was stunned.

"Yeah, Songjiang University Town doesn't set up walls; it emphasizes the interconnection of resources between several universities," Seeing Yu Xing looked at this team leader who performed well with confusion and asked back, "Otherwise? What did you think?"

Feng Feng Zongze sheepishly said: "..."
