Back To 2005

"Let's put the expansion aside first, don't rush. Funding is not a problem, but when establishing a branch, teachers come first. In the first half of the year, we will prepare the teaching team for more than two branches, and determine the locations of the two branches during the summer vacation. . One principle is that you must ensure the number of teachers before you can expand the branch. Don’t think about recruiting people after the branch is established, as that will have a great impact on the reputation.”

As the boss of the training department for many years, Zhou Anan knew very well what they were thinking, but he did not agree to such a quick and easy approach.

Indeed, many training institutions are now expanding aggressively, and many venture capital firms are even involved. They seem to be prosperous, with branches opening one after another.

Coupled with the comprehensive advertising and promotion by the admissions team, the number of students is also very large, which is really eye-catching to outsiders.

However, Zhou Anan knew that except for one or two limited training institutions, the rest would not survive long.

The faster the branch expands, the faster the capital chain is broken, and the only result is bankruptcy.

A training department without a reputation and a foundation for teacher development is ultimately a castle in the air.

He has no shortage of funds, but the expansion of the training department requires not only money, but also sufficient teachers, an excellent team, and a good reputation, so that it can go further.

Of course, slowly expanding after the summer vacation will also be conducive to the use of funds in his hands.

After the crazy increase in real estate in Lizhou this year, he will have ample funds in his hands, and he can invest part of it in the expansion of the training department.

"OK."

Hearing the boss's decision, Tao Qinglian and the two said nothing more.

However, they heard the hidden meaning in the boss's words. They were asked to do the recruitment of teachers, so they were naturally responsible for the expansion of the two training departments.

Even if the final person in charge is not determined, they still have the best chance.

"Okay, when the semester is over, I will give you a big red envelope."

"thank you boss."

Seeing the ambition in their eyes, Zhou Anan smiled brightly and said nothing more.

Naturally, he knew what they were thinking, and he restrained them a little, but didn't blame them too much.

Being ambitious is a good thing, but this ambition must be controlled by those in power.

Just like Zhou Anan worked in the training department in his previous life, several young people among them had wild ideas. After working in his training department for a year, they learned that this industry made a lot of money, so they wanted to start their own business.

As a result, there are not as many parents as the small training department in the past that they imagined they would have close relationships with, even though their prices are lower.

Some parents who received the call quietly told him about the small training department's low-price enrollment, but Zhou Anan also covered it up in a joking tone.

Although that incident did not cause much damage to him, it also sounded the alarm for Zhou Anan.

In Zhou Anan's original arrangement, Tao Qinglian and Lu Changqing were the candidates to host the expansion of the training department and English training institution, but they could not be made to feel so certain.

Even after the training department expanded, he would arrange for others to check and balance the power in the hands of the two people and take the situation into his own hands.

Only when there is pressure can there be progress and awe.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

In the Blue Sky Cafe, Zhou Anan saw Wang Rong in the box and asked casually after sitting down.

If you make an appointment to meet at a place like this, something must be going on. Otherwise, it would be better to meet at your own Qinglan coffee shop.

But the other person on the phone asked him to be busy first. It shouldn't be an urgent matter, so Zhou Anan went to the training department first before driving over.

"Didn't I invest 150,000 in you before? How much is it now? Can I get it back?"

Seeing his high school classmates coming over, Wang Rong clenched his hands, struggled for a while, and finally asked, with a nervous tone in his quick tone.

"What do you want this money for?"

After hearing what the other party said, Zhou Anan couldn't help but frown and asked in a deep voice.

Based on his understanding, Wang Rong is not short of this money now.

Even if he and Xu Mengxin want to buy a house in downtown Hangzhou, the funds in hand are enough for the down payment. Do they need to buy the house in full?

"I see that house prices have fallen recently, and I want to buy a house in the city center with full payment."

"to be honest."

Paying attention to Wang Rong's expression and listening to his insincere answer, Zhou Anan stared at him and said.

"Xu Wenwen is in trouble. She was deceived by the middle-aged man into signing a lot of loan contracts. Now the middle-aged man went bankrupt and ran away. She is now saddled with millions of dollars in debt, and the debt collectors are driving her crazy. ”

Looking at each other for two seconds, Wang Rong lowered his head and told the real reason.

"Oh, it's Xu Wenwen again. Ah Rong, are you out of your mind?"

Resisting the urge to pour the warm water in front of him on the other person's face, Zhou Anan couldn't help but speak in a tone that was several decibels louder.

At this moment, he felt as if tens of thousands of mythical beasts were rushing past in his mind.

What's going on? That Xu Wenwen has been around so many times and it's still here again.

You know, now Wang Rong and Xu Mengxin are going to buy a house and plan for the future.

As a result, it happened again.

The lingering feelings of first love must have limits.

A grown man should break off when necessary. Wang Rong doesn't want to cultivate his first love into a lover, so why does he keep jumping into the pit?

At this time, Zhou Anan really wanted to open the other person's brain and take a closer look to see if it was a mess inside.

"She didn't call me for help, but I heard about it from other classmates and wanted to help her."

Perhaps because he guessed what his high school classmate was thinking, Wang Rong whispered his reasons. The more he spoke, the less confident he became.

With his current status, he is indeed not in a position to help Xu Wenwen.

"Does Xu Mengxin know about this?"

After taking a sip of water, Zhou Anan asked a key question.

"She doesn't know yet, so I want to ask you what happened to the 150,000 before. I won't touch the rest of the money, for fear that Mengxin will know. I can only help as much as I can."

Shaking his head, Wang Rong spoke and suddenly felt that he was still very rational.

At least, he didn't think about touching his and his girlfriend's joint funds.

"Really?! I almost thought you were going to help her pay off all her debts and even sell Qinglan's shares."

After hearing this, Zhou Anan felt much less sullen and joked with a hint of sarcasm.

"How is it possible? I just tried my best. After this time, I won't miss her anymore."

The corners of his mouth curled up, and Wang Rong laughed somewhat self-deprecatingly.

After so many twists and turns, his thoughts about his first love were basically gone.

The innocent and lovely girl in my impression has long been painted into colorful colors by this society, and she no longer has the heartbeat she once had.

What's more, he now has a successful career and his relationship with his girlfriend is so sweet, how could he destroy the Great Wall?

"Okay, since you really want to take away the original 150,000 yuan, I won't stop you. I signed an investment agreement with you, did you take it with you?"

Without saying anything more, Zhou Anan asked about the agreement.

For the sake of his own conscience and to remind himself not to forget his roots when he gets rich in the future, Zhou Anan took the initiative to sign an investment agreement with his elementary school classmate and Wang Rong.

It seems that there is another agreement, which he has kept in the safe in the training department office.

"I took it, I'm sorry."

Wang Rong took out a document from the black briefcase sitting next to him, his face full of apologies.

"I'm sorry, this is your own money. You originally gave me 150,000 yuan. Based on the current stock price, it's probably a little over 1.10 yuan. I'll give you 1.2 million."

After estimating the current stock price of TX, Zhou Anan gave a rough amount.

Although his funds had been withdrawn from the stock market at the highest point, the other party did not know.

Brother Ming settled the accounts, Wang Rongming said he would fill the hole for Xu Wenwen, how could Zhou Anan waste more of his money.

Originally, he was thinking of reinvesting that money into TX stocks, selling them when they reached their highest point in a few years, and earning tens of millions for his high school classmates. Now, of course, that is impossible.

However, the other party's shares in Qinglan will make him a billionaire in a few years, so the money is not that important.

"It's so much, did you miscalculate? Don't give me so much. I really only help as much as I can. I just want to feel at ease."

Hearing Zhou Anan's words, Wang Rong couldn't help but asked in shock, fearing that his high school classmates might misunderstand something.

The 150,000 yuan has been kept with the other party for two years. He thought it would be good to have a 50% increase. Unexpectedly, it increased to 8 times. Is it so profitable to buy stocks?

"That's right. I'll transfer it to you when I go to the bank. Don't talk about the amount of the money anymore. Also, regarding Xu Wenwen, it's best to find a lawyer."

Putting away the scrawled simple agreement, Zhou Anan didn't explain too much to avoid any confusion on the other side's mind.

"Then I'll find Lawyer Huang from the company?"
