“So you want me to help you find a reliable manager?”

Temir wiped his mouth with a napkin and put down his fork.

“And this person must have experience working in internet companies, must have started a business, needs to understand marketing, also needs to understand management, and the personality can’t be too strange, are these your requirements?”

Cheng Daqi nodded eagerly.

He needed a reliable manager to be his right-hand man in America.

“Honey, I’m a person, not a genie in a lamp…

You want to find such a person, so do I; every boss wants to find this type of talent.

You also demand a good personality; a talented person with a good personality wouldn’t end up in your crappy company.”

Temir mocked mercilessly.

She thought Cheng Daqi was daydreaming.

“I can offer a higher salary.

With enough money, what kind of person can’t you attract?

The only difficulty is to ensure that the person really is talented.”

Cheng Daqi didn’t think his requirements were excessive; he very much needed a capable deputy.

Now he was handling everything personally.

Although he could manage, it wasn’t a long-term solution to do everything himself.

“Money is the solution?

If you can find such a person for me, how about I give you three hundred thousand Dollars as a referral fee?

Such a person in OC would get a starting salary of five hundred thousand Dollars per year.

How much can your newly established company offer?

These people are the treasures of their bosses.

What boss would let them go easily?

Even if they were in the job market, they wouldn’t go to your small company.”

The black-haired wealthy woman reminded Cheng Daqi.

‘The boss’s treasure.’

Heh, Temir is a boss, a big boss at that, and she indeed has a treasure.

A beautiful, blonde, big treasure.

Lisa, it’s decided then, you’re the one!

Reliable, smart, has started a business, can lead a team, has marketing experience, only lacking a bit in internet experience.

But she’s cheap.

No, not cheap; Lisa is a shareholder in Cheng Daqi’s new company, naturally one of his own, easy to pull over.

Cheng Daqi glanced at Temir quietly, not directly revealing his thoughts.

Undermining someone’s position and digging at their foundation should be done stealthily, with no gunfire.

Besides, there was no guarantee of success, so it was better to dig quietly; who knows what the future holds?

“The second matter, this you probably can’t refuse.

Our new company’s office, can you reduce the rent to zero?”

Temir picked up the steak knife, her eyes filled with murderous intent.

Are you being this shameless?

“Chan, even if you asked me to rent it to you for a thousand Dollars a month, I think it’s negotiable.

But how can you have the face to ask me to rent it for free?”

Cheng Daqi shrank his neck, muttering softly.

“Gru’s house was given for free, and he’s not even a shareholder…”

This argument was powerful, and Cheng Daqi felt he wasn’t being unreasonable.

Temir took a deep breath, feeling that getting angry again might give her breast nodules.

“Let’s sign a bet.

If the company’s valuation can reach over ten million Dollars within two years, you can use the office for free for these two years.

If not, you’ll have to cough up the money at market rate, got it?”

The black-haired rich woman proposed a condition with her eyes closed, after pondering for a moment.

Done!

If you have the guts, you can take maternity leave (crossed out).

If you have the guts, you can get the office for free.

Cheng Daqi, following the principle of testing the waters, made a tentative move and to his great surprise, reaped a reward.

This was fantastic.

But actually, Temir wasn’t at a loss at all.

If Cheng Daqi won the bet, her investment would have increased fivefold, eight hundred thousand turning into four million.

If Cheng Daqi lost the bet, she wouldn’t lose her rent – the company could collapse, but wasn’t Cheng Daqi still around?

“Mi’er, just have the lawyer draft the contract.

Gru’s old factory can be converted into a photography location.

Later, I’ll sign an agreement with Gru for joint ownership after renovation.

Then find an appraisal agency for a report, counting it as an asset for the new company.

In the next round of funding, that place will be our photography and filming center.”

Cheng Daqi understood financing, but Temir was worried that Gru might not be easy to convince.

“You talk as if it’s easy, but will Gru agree?”

The black-haired wealthy woman felt that Cheng Daqi was overly confident, and she directly reminded him.

Zhao Hongjin also thought Cheng Daqi was too confident, but she chose to remain silent for the time being.

“Is there a possibility, that my startup will be very successful, the future looks great, and Gru will be hugging my thighs, shedding tears while begging me to let him invest?”

Cheng Daqi’s confidence wasn’t baseless; his ambition at this moment was boundless, aiming to reach the pinnacle of America.

‘The pinnacle’ here referred to the limit of Cheng Daqi’s inborn talents because, even to this day, Cheng Daqi had not seen the top-tier gameplay of America.

Ideally, he could just ask Temir for the answers.

But ultimately, the difference between Cheng Daqi and Temir was too great.

Temir was the legitimate heiress of a true old-school capitalist family, a standard cold-blooded and unemotional American elite.

Her gentleness and kindness were only present at rare moments, for very few people.

Most of the time, she was essentially a capitalist who was not noble, good, or idealistic.

So, Cheng Daqi was close to the answers, but couldn’t see them; he could only beat around the bush.

“That’s great, honey, always keep this shamelessness.

The only reason I invest in you is your shamelessness.

I really appreciate you, you shameless bastard.

I believe a person as shameless as you can definitely make something of yourself in America.”

See, she and Gru and Sun Dongxin were thinking along similar lines.
