Chapter 587 Chen Li and his three genius sisters

When the time entered August, Panda QQ, owned by Chen Li, was the first to announce good news.

Panda QQ officially acquired Foxmail, a well-known company in the industry, for a high price of two million U.S. dollars, and also packaged the other party's R&D team into its bag.

Two million U.S. dollars, if it had been spent half a year ago or even a year ago, let alone buying Foxmail and packaging the other party's R&D team, it is estimated that just financing alone might not get too many shares.

But now isn’t the Internet bubble burst? The valuations of almost all Internet companies have been reduced invariably.

The valuations of some Internet companies have been cut in half, and even better valuations are less than two-thirds of their previous value. Some Internet companies have even been directly rated as junk projects not worth investing in.

Therefore, Zhang Xiaolong’s Foxmail has also been greatly affected.

In fact, Zhang Xiaolong was not willing to join Panda QQ at the beginning. This person has quite a personality.

But Liu Zhiping immediately defeated the other party as soon as he took action, and the condition for success was to take over the entire Foxmail R&D team.

No matter how talented Zhang Xiaolong is, he is also a normal human being, and a human being has seven emotions and six desires.

Foxmail's R&D team has been with him for several years. It is impossible to say that he has no feelings for him.

So when Liu Zhiping discussed with Zhang Xiaolong whether to stay in the R&D team, he directly mentioned the arrangements for these people. As the boss of the original team, Zhang Xiaolong was naturally responsible for these people.

To be honest~ In Liu Zhiping's opinion, this matter is not a good thing.

Maybe Zhang Xiaolong does have the ability to be valued by Chen Li, but directly packaging an entire team like this and promising not to break them up at will. This will cause a lot of trouble for the company's management.

But it's a pity that recruiting Zhang Xiaolong was a fatal order from the boss Chen Li, and Liu Zhiping could only do things according to Chen Li's arrangements.

Fortunately, Zhang Xiaolong and his team will only be responsible for Panda QQ's email business and will not participate in the company's operations and management. Otherwise, Liu Zhiping really doesn't know how to work with such a person who is highly valued by his boss.

.

With the addition of Foxmail and Zhang Xiaolong's team, Panda QQ's strength has once again been strengthened, and strengthened in advance.

You must know that it was several years later that Foxmail and Zhang Xiaolong joined Tengxun in their previous lives.

Although Tengxun launched an email business at that time, in fact, domestic email services had already been divided up by several companies.

At that time, Tengxun was able to regain some market share entirely by relying on QQ, a powerful tool. The difficulty involved was definitely beyond the imagination of many people.

Now that Panda QQ email has appeared several years ahead of schedule, Chen Li is confident that he can get a share of the email market.

August 2000 was indeed a happy month for Chen Li.

In addition to Panda QQ’s acquisition of Foxmail, Chen Li’s sister Chen Xue “got her wish” and received an admission notice from Yenching International Studies University.

The reason why I put this wish-fulfillment in quotation marks is because although Chen Xue got the notice, she was not as happy as she imagined.

The reason is very simple~ The male classmate she had a crush on failed the exam. Not only did that guy fail to get admitted to Yanjing University of Foreign Studies, he didn't even get into the second class. Finally, he was admitted to a third-class normal school in a remote city in Sichuan Province.

The school admitted me.

Because of this, Chen Xue has been unhappy for several days.

But this time Chen Li did not comfort Chen Xue, because he knew very well that this kind of thing was a regret that most people would experience.

And it's okay if Chen Li doesn't dissuade her. Chen Xue will probably forget about this matter after she attends university in Yanjing for a few years.

But if he tried to persuade her, it might have the opposite effect.

In fact, Chen Li does not object to Chen Xue falling in love after going to college. This is human nature.

But he knows very well that 90% of long-distance relationships in college are fruitless.

Not to mention that Chen Xue and that boy are not even in a relationship yet. After college, the two of them will naturally have new classmates, friends, and even lovers.

And the fact is just like Chen Xue's ideal. Although Chen Xue was depressed for a few days, she soon fell into the longing of entering a new world.

After all, this is Yanjing, and what she is about to go to is the ivory tower that countless people dream of!

Although the University of Foreign Studies is actually not a strange place to her, after all, she went to the University of Foreign Studies for a run almost every day during this period.

Yes~ After Chen Li's family spent more than 20 days in a certain resort, they did not return to Sichuan Province, but came to Yanjing.

Chen Xue is going to college here, so Chen Guofu and Wang Dongmei also plan to stay here for a while.

As for Chen Tingting and Chen Li's second mother, it's because Chen Li's second father is working in Yanjing at the moment.

So during this period, Chen Xue, Chen Tingting and Wang Yan were carried by Chen Li to exercise on the playground of the University of Foreign Studies every morning.

This behavior made the three sisters very dissatisfied. Even Wang Yan, who never disobeyed Chen Li's decisions, had some feelings for her brother Li.

But the arms couldn't twist the thighs, so every morning the three girls had to put on their sportswear and follow Chen Li to school for running exercises.

Chen Li is naturally well-intentioned, and the reason is very simple ~ the physical fitness of students these days is really bad.

Wang Yan is actually fine. This girl just doesn't want to do exercise early during the holiday, but her physical condition is still fine.

After all, Wang Yan used to do farm work a lot, and she only did less in the past year or two, but her physical foundation has long been developed.

But Chen Xue and Chen Tingting are different. These two girls are favored at home. Not only have they never endured hardship, but their athletic abilities are also very poor.

Take Chen Xue as an example. Because of his poor physical condition, his brother Chen Li was taken out of bed by Chen Guofu every morning to do exercises, but Chen Xue could sleep in the warm quilt at home until breakfast.

Schools these days basically focus more on academic performance than on comprehensive quality education. Whether it is junior high school or high school, there are basically only a few physical education classes in each semester.

In addition, most families these days are generally not wealthy, and many students cannot keep up with nutrition, so physical problems have become a big problem for this generation of students.

Of course~ Chen Li would never admit that he actually just wanted to torment these three little girls who were having fun during the holidays.

After all, he is now used to running every day. Isn't it what he, as an older brother, should do to let his sisters get used to his habits?

However~ apart from this, the three sisters are naturally not without gains.

For example, Chen Xue met her future mentor after running exercises one day.

Even Chen Tingting and Wang Yan became familiar faces at the University of Foreign Languages ​​because of their English proficiency that was far above their peers and Chen Li's reputation.

"Speaking of which, Xiaoli, I really want to meet your parents."

"Your family, whether it's you or your three younger sisters, your foreign language proficiency is extraordinary!"

"I really want to ask your parents about their education methods in this area and how they raised you."

One morning, after Chen Li and his three younger sisters finished their running exercises at the University of Foreign Studies, they met Professor Lu from before. This female professor who had been very optimistic about Chen Li checked the English proficiency of the three sisters and was greatly impressed.

be surprised!

What surprised her was not only the foreign language proficiency of the Chen Liji brothers and sisters, but also the curiosity about what kind of family could raise the Chen Liji brothers and sisters.

In Professor Lu's opinion, Chen Li's parents were definitely high-level intellectuals, and at least they definitely had a way of raising foreign languages ​​that was not known to outsiders.

After all, if Chen Li is outstanding, it may just be because Chen Li is a genius, but if these brothers and sisters are so good at foreign languages, it can only be due to family upbringing.

Yes~ It can't even be a school, otherwise there would definitely not be a few people from Chen Li's hometown who were admitted to the University of Foreign Languages.

In fact, in the past two years, the only two people in Erlong Town who have been admitted to Yanjing International Studies University are Chen Li and his sister.

Therefore, Professor Lu believes that this should be the result of Chen Li and Chen Xue’s parents.

But Professor Lu's invitation put Chen Li in a difficult position. After all, others didn't know clearly. How could he still not know what was going on here?

Whether it is him or his three sisters, the reason why their foreign language proficiency is far higher than that of their peers is of course because of the existence of the system.

Among them, Chen Li benefits directly from the system, so his degree of specialness is the most exaggerated.

Now Chen Li has reached an advanced level in English and German. The systematic advanced evaluation means that his mastery of this language ranks among the best even among native speakers of this foreign language.

Secondly, Chen Li is also proficient in French and Japanese. Chen Li has also reached the intermediate level in these two languages. The systematic evaluation is similar to that of people whose native language is this language!

In addition, Chen Li has also dabbled in Spanish and Portuguese. Although they are only elementary levels, there is still no problem in simple daily communication.

The reason why Chen Li chooses so many foreign languages ​​is naturally not because Chen Li really wants to become a language genius.

In fact, except for English and German, which Chen Li had to learn because of his studies, Chen Li just learned several other languages ​​casually.

Among them, learning French is a small hobby of Chen Li, while learning Japanese~ is for Chen Li to understand the dialogue in certain movies.

As for Spanish and Portuguese, it was entirely because Chen Li was a little tired of learning the previous languages ​​for a long time, so he wanted to change his taste.

So in fact, Chen Li now rarely puts his energy into learning foreign languages. After all, he has a lot of things to do every day, and he only studies during the study time that has been fixed before.

But even so, Chen Li's foreign language proficiency is considered a genius among geniuses even in the eyes of the old professors at the University of Foreign Studies.

It's a pity that Chen Li doesn't have the intention to pay attention to academics and studies, otherwise Chen Li is actually very suitable for learning.

If Chen Li was average in other aspects, Professor Lu might be able to persuade Chen Li. However, Chen Li was also a monster-level player in business, which made Professor Lu feel helpless.

After all, this is no longer a few decades ago, but now is the economic era. Although knowledge is very important in the eyes of people like Professor Lu, they cannot require their students to have the same ideas as themselves.

So~ Professor Lu finally let go of Chen Li. She actually really wanted to see how far her favorite student could go in the future.

Originally, Professor Lu thought that a genius like Chen Li was one of a kind, no, even a genius that could only be seen in a hundred years.

But now, three more of the same geniuses appeared in front of her.

Although the foreign language proficiency of Chen Xue, Wang Yan and Chen Tingting can only be considered average in Professor Lu's eyes, taking into account the ages of the three sisters and the teaching level of their hometown, Professor Lu naturally focused on Chen Li

On the parents.

"Teacher~ I understand what you mean."

"But you may be wrong about this. In fact, the reason why my three sisters are able to achieve their current English scores is mainly because I hired good tutors for them!"

"How should I put it? As you know, I have made some money now, so...hehe!"

But when this matter came to Chen Li, it was naturally much easier to explain.

In the eyes of a respected teacher like Professor Lu, spending money to buy education may not be on the table, so Chen Li could only make fun of it.

"Oh, even though they hired tutors, the improvement in the scores of these children still has a lot to do with their own efforts."

Professor Lu glanced at Chen Li, but she did not object to Chen Li's behavior of paying for a tutor.

In fact, in Professor Lu's eyes, what Chen Li did was actually the right thing to do.

After all, after Chen Li made money, he didn't spend it on living and drinking, and he even forgot to invest in the education of his sisters at home. This is actually a very good behavior.

It's just that the old lady was still a little bit worried about Chen Li's previous dropout, so she didn't give Chen Li a good look.

As a teacher, Professor Lu naturally likes children with good grades. Whether it is Chen Xue, who was admitted to Yanjing International Studies University with high scores this year, or Chen Tingting, who usually has very good grades, they are all good children in Professor Lu's eyes.

Of course, what Professor Lu is most curious about is Wang Yan, who is called a "genius" by Chen Lidu.

"Yanzi~ I heard that you plan to take the college entrance examination next year?"

"Do you want to come to the University of Foreign Studies?"

Wang Yan came to Yanjing last year, and Professor Lu also met this child at that time.

It's just that although Wang Yan's performance at that time was excellent, it was not to the level of a genius monster that Chen Li described.

But this year the situation has changed. In the past six months or so, Chen Li almost mentioned his genius cousin every time he went to Professor Lu's house.

"Hmm~ Teacher Lu, my brother wants me to get into Huaqing and Yanda. I will listen to my brother."

Wang Yan didn't see the wink Chen Li gave her, so she sold Chen Li straight away.

then

"What's the matter? You don't want to go to a foreign language university anymore, right?"

"Don't forget ~ this is your alma mater!"

"Do you want to go to heaven?"

"Hiss~Professor Lu~Teacher Lu, it hurts~it hurts, you are a teacher~how can you hit someone?"

"I'm going to beat you today, I have to beat you up!"
