Chapter 332 Ignore him
Chapter 332 Ignore him
Li Menghan sat in the taxi and soon arrived at the south gate of Han City University.
He paid the fare, opened the car door, and got out.
There is a teahouse next to the south gate.
Li Menghan walked straight into the teahouse.
The teahouse was very quiet, and there weren't many people drinking tea inside.
Li Menghan stood at the door and looked around. Soon she saw a young man waving at her.
The boy looked to be in his early twenties; he was Wang Lei, a junior in college.
Wang Lei dressed up specially today.
He was wearing a black suit and a red tie.
However, the suit looked a bit too big on him, completely ill-fitting, and made him appear very stiff.
When Wang Lei saw Li Menghan walk in, he immediately stood up from his chair.
With a very warm smile on his face, he quickly walked up to Li Menghan.
Wang Lei's attitude was very respectful, even somewhat ingratiating.
He said loudly:
"Li Menghan, you've arrived! Please, have a seat!"
Wang Lei reached out and pulled out a chair for Li Menghan.
After Li Menghan sat down in her chair, Wang Lei sat down in the seat opposite her.
Wang Lei picked up the teapot on the table and poured Li Menghan a cup of hot tea.
He smiled and said to Li Menghan:
"Menghan, I've heard of you before. You've become quite famous at our school these past few days. I'm really happy to see you in person today."
Sitting in the chair, Li Menghan felt very comfortable after hearing what Wang Lei said.
He had been rejected by his father at home and felt inferior to the wealthy Lu Wenzhou outside, which made him feel very resentful.
Now I hear an upperclassman being so polite and respectful to me.
His confidence returned instantly.
Li Menghan picked up her teacup, took a sip of hot tea, looked at Wang Lei, and said very directly:
"Senior Wang, there's no need for such polite words."
"You told me on the phone before that you have a very good internet project that you are short of funds. Tell me more about it now."
When Li Menghan asked about the project directly, Wang Lei's smile widened.
He immediately opened the black backpack that was placed next to him.
He took out a stack of printed paper documents from his backpack, placed them neatly on the table, and pushed them in front of Li Menghan.
Wang Lei looked at Li Menghan, his tone becoming very serious.
He said loudly:
"Menghan, my project is in the hottest field in the world right now."
"The project our team is working on is a large-scale AI model."
When Li Menghan heard the words "AI large model", he was stunned for a moment.
He doesn't like reading or studying at school. He used to deliver food every day and spent his free time playing games.
He knew absolutely nothing about these computer and network technologies.
He had no idea what this AI model actually was.
However, Li Menghan did not show her lack of understanding.
He nodded very seriously, pretending to understand perfectly.
He looked at Wang Lei and said:
"Yes, large-scale AI models. I know that. Go on."
Wang Lei opened the document in front of him, pointed to some charts and text, and began to introduce them to Li Menghan very loudly.
"Menghan, our AI large-scale model project has the potential to directly change the world."
"Once our model is successfully developed, it can directly replace a lot of manual labor in the current market."
"Our technical team consists entirely of computer experts from our school. We have now written out the most core technical content."
Wang Lei became more and more excited as he spoke, waving his hands in the air:
"What we lack right now is some money. As long as we have enough funds to buy a lot of computer servers, we can get this large model running right away."
"At that time, all companies in society will come to buy our technology. Our company can earn millions or even tens of millions a day!"
Wang Lei uttered many very sophisticated words.
For example, artificial intelligence, deep learning, data analysis, and industry disruption.
Li Menghan sat opposite her, listening very quietly.
In fact, Li Menghan didn't understand any of the technical terms Wang Lei just used.
He looked down at the documents on the table.
The charts on the document are very simple, and the text layout is also messy.
Anyone who knows a little about business or has worked in society for a few years can do it.
Take a look at this document, and listen to a few words from Wang Lei.
You can immediately tell that this is a completely unreliable project.
This is not a business that can make money at all.
This is just a bunch of college students who have absolutely no understanding of society talking nonsense and indulging in wishful thinking.
However, Li Menghan couldn't see these problems at all.
He felt that the words Wang Lei used were very sophisticated and impressive.
Li Menghan thought excitedly to herself:
"AI Big Model, that name sounds amazing."
"If I invest in this project, and the company makes a lot of money, I will be the big boss of this high-tech company."
"By then, what will Lu Wenzhou's company be? And what will my dad's old-fashioned business be?"
"I must prove to them all that my judgment is spot-on. I can build a huge business on my own!"
Li Menghan felt happier the more she thought about it.
He felt this was the best opportunity for him to prove his abilities.
Wang Lei sat opposite him and talked for about twenty minutes before finally stopping.
He picked up his teacup, took a sip of water to moisten his throat.
Then, Wang Lei looked at Li Menghan and asked somewhat nervously:
"Menghan, what do you think of my project? Would you be willing to invest in our team?"
Li Menghan leaned back in his chair, looked at Wang Lei, and nodded firmly and decisively.
He answered loudly:
"Great! Your project is excellent! I'm very satisfied with what I just heard!"
"I've decided to vote!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Lei jumped up from his chair.
He could hardly believe his ears.
Wang Lei had previously used this document to solicit investment from several business owners.
As a result, the business owners only glanced at him twice before kicking him out, saying he was a fraud.
He really didn't expect that he would succeed so easily in front of this freshman today.
Wang Lei excitedly shouted:
"Thank you so much! Menghan, you have such excellent taste!"
"With your funding, our company can start operating immediately. I promise you, I will make you lots and lots of money!"
Wang Lei rubbed his hands together, looked at Li Menghan cautiously, and asked:
"Um... Menghan, how much money are you planning to invest in us?"
"We need to buy a lot of servers and rent a decent office. The initial costs will total around five million."
When Wang Lei announced the figure of five million, he was very unsure of himself.
He felt that five million was too much, and he was even prepared to let Li Menghan bargain.
However, when Li Menghan heard the number five million, he just smiled.
Li Menghan took out her phone from her pocket and opened the banking app.
He glanced at the more than 900 million yuan balance in his bank account.
Li Menghan placed her phone on the table, looked at Wang Lei, and said in a very domineering tone:
"Five million? What big business can you do with five million?"
"Since you want to become a high-tech company, you must have very sufficient funds."
Li Menghan held up two fingers and announced loudly:
"I'll invest 20 million with you first!"
"Go and rent the best office in the city right now, and buy the most advanced computer equipment."
"If you run out of money and don't have enough, you can come to me for more anytime!"
When Wang Lei heard the number 20 million, he was completely stunned.
He opened his mouth wide, but couldn't utter a single word for a long time.
Then he nodded very vigorously, so happy that tears almost streamed down his face.
"Okay! Okay, Mr. Li!"
"Don't worry, I'll handle all the paperwork for opening the company tomorrow! I definitely won't let you down!"
Wang Lei even changed his way of addressing him, now directly calling him Boss Li.
When Li Menghan heard the words "Boss Li," he felt extremely pleased.
He has finally become a respected boss.
The two sat in the teahouse and began to discuss the future opening of their company with great enthusiasm.
……
And across the street from the teahouse.
A black car was parked very quietly on the side of the road.
The old man sat in the driver's seat, wearing a very small earpiece in his ear.
Lao Yi heard everything Li Menghan and Wang Lei said in the teahouse clearly.
The first man took out a secure cell phone.
He sent the audio files he had just heard directly to Li Ze.
……
At this moment.
Li Ze was sitting on the sofa in the living room of the large house in Beichen Garden.
He took out his phone and opened the audio file that Lao Yi had sent him.
Li Ze drank the hot water in his cup while listening to the recording of his son's conversation with the student named Wang Lei.
When he heard Wang Lei using those very empty words to fool people.
His son, Li Menghan, couldn't understand at all and was still thinking that the other person was very impressive.
Li Ze couldn't hold back any longer and burst out laughing.
"Hahaha!"
Li Ze shook his head and muttered to himself with great ease:
"This silly boy is so easily fooled."
"A few scraps of paper, plus a few completely illogical statements, are enough to fool him."
"What kind of AI model is this? These people don't even understand the most basic code algorithms, yet they want to make this kind of thing. It's a complete scam."
As the world's richest man, Li Ze's technology company is engaged in the world's most advanced artificial intelligence.
He only needed to hear one sentence from Wang Lei to know that Wang Lei was a complete liar who knew nothing.
However, Li Ze did not intend to call to stop his son.
His expression was very relaxed.
He leaned back on the sofa and said with a smile:
"But it's fine this way."
"Since he's so eager to do business and prove himself to everyone, let him try and hit a brick wall."
"Spend 20 million to teach him a lesson, to let him know how dangerous the outside world is."
"It made him clearly understand that doing business is definitely not an easy thing. This money was well spent."
Li Ze picked up his phone and sent a message to Lao Yi:
"Ignore him and let him do what he wants. As long as he's not in mortal danger, let him give money to whoever he wants."
After sending the message, Li Ze put down his phone.
He felt very good.
Watching his son experience these setbacks and failures is an essential part of a father's upbringing.
Only by experiencing setbacks can one truly grow up.
