I’m not going back for dinner tonight.”

On the way home, Tang Rui gave Li Shuyao a call.

“Working overtime? Do you want me to save some food for you to eat when you come back tonight?” Li Shuyao asked.

“No need. Zhou Tao called me just now and asked me to eat. He didn’t say anything over the phone, but from his tone, I knew that something must have happened.”

“Alright, then drink less.”

“Don’t worry, the two of us are just drinking casually. We won’t drink too much.”

He hung up the phone.

Tang Rui leaned back on the sofa, thinking about the phone call from Zhou Tao just now.

He did not say anything.

However, they had been in university for four years.

He had something to say, but he didn’t say it over the phone.

“President Tang, the restaurant has been checked. There’s no problem.”

Gao Yang’s voice sounded.

“Alright, I got it.”

He was now the subject of protection, and it was a very strict protection.

It was quite troublesome to go out for a meal.

They arrived at the restaurant and entered the largest private room.

This private room was a suite with a place to eat, rest, and sing.

After Tang Rui entered the private room inside, he sent a message to Zhou Tao, telling him to directly go upstairs to the private room.

The restaurant was booked by Zhou Tao, and the private room was booked by Tang Rui.

After a while, Tang Rui heard Zhou Tao’s voice.

H

Sorry, I went to the wrong room.”

“I didn’t manage to leave. Come in.”

Tang Rui hurriedly got up, opened the door of the small private room, and shouted at Zhou Tao.

“Uh… This was… What’s going on?”

Zhou Tao walked in with a dumbfounded look, looked at the few soldiers sitting on the sofa, and then looked at Tang Rui.

His brain did not react.

“Nothing much. Come in.”

Tang Rui hurriedly waved his hand, telling him to hurry up and not embarrass himself outside.

Zhou Tao nodded at the soldiers and walked into the private room.

After coming in, he stared at Tang Rui, sizing him up.

“What are you looking at? I haven’t seen Daddy for two months.” Tang Rui said snappily.

ii

Dad, have you already inherited billions of assets?” Zhou Tao’s eyes lit up.

“Get lost. This is all my own hard work.”

“Then wouldn’t I be a rich second-generation heir?”

Looking at Zhou Tao’s shameless appearance, Tang Rui was also helpless.

“Tell me, what’s the matter?” Tang Rui asked curiously after ordering.

“It’s nothing. 1 just haven’t seen you in a long time. 1 wanted to ask you out for a meal and a drink.”

Zhou Tao waved his hand.

done.me

“Don’t be ridiculous. Believe it or not, 1 can find out the color of your underwear with just a phone call.”

“I want to resign and start a business.”

Zhou Tao said after a moment of silence.

“You should have come out and done it yourself a long time ago. Is the PowerPoint ready? I’m going to vote for the angels,” Tang Rui said with a smile.

He was afraid that Zhou Tao would be embarrassed to talk about borrowing money, so he might as well say it directly.

“Get lost…Even if you’re rich now, your father is still your father. I’ve already prepared the money to start the company.”

Zhou Tao said in high spirits.

That expression didn’t seem fake.

Tang Rui was stunned.

“You went to sell your ass?”

“You’re the one selling your ass. Can’t I have money myself?”

“I can’t.” Tang Rui replied decisively.

“I found a girlfriend and she invested in me.”

“How much?”

“Two million.”

Tang Rui’s eyes widened, looking at Zhou Tao in shock.

“May I ask how old sister-in-law is this year?”

“Get lost. What old are you talking about? She’s only five years older than me.”

Five years older?

Zhou Tao was 22 this year. If he was five years older, he would be 27. After the New Year, he would be 28. If he counted according to his virtual age, he would be 29.

He was no older than 30 years old.

However, this gap was actually not small.

Tang Rui’s stomach was full of coquettish words that couldn’t be said.

If he didn’t know about it before, he could still talk nonsense.

Now that Zhou Tao had said so, he could not joke around anymore.

“Are you serious?” Tang Rui asked seriously.

If it was for money, there was actually no need.

He did not say how much money he could support Zhou Tao, but with his current ability, it was not a problem for him to arrange for Zhou Tao to enter a research institute and set up an organization.

Eating the national food, one couldn’t say that they were full, but they definitely wouldn’t go hungry.

“Yes, when he met her, he didn’t know that she was rich. I only found out when I went to her house later.

But at that time, we were already together.”

“Did her parents agree to your marriage?”

“Her parents left three years ago.”

H

Let’s move on to the next topic.

Matters like relationships shouldn’t be delved into.

To put it simply, there was nothing to talk about. It was pure nonsense.

If he went deeper, she wouldn’t like to hear it and it would hurt their relationship.

There was no need to chat.

“Alright, what do you want to do with two million yuan?” Tang Rui turned the topic to the problem of starting a business.

Starting a business in this day and age was no joke.

Sometimes, two million yuan was not even as good as throwing it into the water.

I’m going to start the production of drone parts.”

“Spare parts? Do you have the skills?”

“I’m going to find our senior brother from the last two years to partner up. He has a technical patent.”

Tang Rui rolled his eyes after hearing it.

A partnership?

“Hold on, I knew it was hopeless when I heard you say that.”

“I know that business is not easy to do, but that senior brother is not the kind of person who is difficult to talk to. Otherwise, I would not have this idea.”

“Alright, I’ll make it clear.

“Find a professional to evaluate the patent, buy the patent from him, and then pay him a salary and make him an employee.

“Why don’t you stop working with him? I’ll give you a piece of technology. Consider it a share.

“The company is under your control. 1 won’t interfere. You can do whatever you want. Whether it succeeds or not depends on yourself.”

Tang Rui couldn’t be bothered to listen to these. It was boring.

If their relationship wasn’t good, how could they do business together?

In the end… Most of them were brothers who turned into enemies.

Therefore, don’t partner up with your brother to do business, and recruit your brother into your own company.

Otherwise, something would happen sooner or later.

“Okay, I’ll go back and think about it and discuss it with her.”

“Alright, let’s stop talking nonsense and drink.”

The dishes were served, and the wine had already been opened.

What was there to talk about? It was over after drinking.

The meal lasted nearly two hours.

After they had their fill, the two left the hotel.

As soon as he left the hotel, Zhou Tao walked towards a Porsche Panamera before he could say goodbye to him.

Crack!

The door of the Porsche opened, and a mature lady walked out to welcome Zhou Tao.

The two of them hugged each other.

Burp!

Tang Rui rubbed his stomach. He didn’t eat much at night, but he drank quite a bit of beer.

She was caught off guard by the dog food and her stomach swelled.

“Brother Yang, let’s go.”

Tang Rui didn’t want to bother with this dog thing who forgot his friends at the sight of women and directly turned around to leave.

Only after Zhou Tao was done being lovey-dovey did he think of Tang Rui.

But Tang Rui had already left.

After a round of scolding over the phone, they agreed to bring their other half along for a meal next time to formally introduce each other.

In the next few days, Tang Rui didn’t go to the company. Instead, he found a conference room at Zhilian and used it as a temporary interview location to start the interview.

He had no choice.

On the day the recruitment was sent out, Zhaopin received more than 500 resumes. It was scary.

Lin Chao cooperated with the security department to do a preliminary screening of the resumes, which was to check on their family background.

Those with overseas connections were eliminated.

Those who had studied abroad were rejected.

Those with immediate family members who had criminal records were erased.

Those who participated in folk religions and illegal ecclesiastical organizations were eliminated.

It sounded scary.

However, in reality, not many people had been ticked-off, not even ten.

Of course, this was only the preliminary screening.

Once Tang Rui’s interview was over, he would get the list of people he wanted to recruit, and he would investigate further.

At this stage, it’d be much stricter.

After all, Crimson Corporation was not a nobody; none of the research and development projects involved were simple.

It took more than a week before he was done with the recruitment.

A total of 34 were recruited, including 28 masters, 5 doctors, and 1 post-doctor..
