Chapter 231 Taming He Jieyu (Long Chapter, Subscription Requested)_2
Zhang Jingdong casually said: "It's just parked in the ground parking lot in front of your building. You know what, you don't even have to just look at it, I won't be using it much these next couple of days, so I'll lend it to you for two days."
He Jieyu immediately exclaimed with a surprised face: "Really? That car is so expensive, are you sure?"
"Of course I'm sure, what's the big deal, isn't a car meant to be driven? It doesn't matter who drives it. Plus, you've been helping me so much lately, so consider this a small token of my appreciation!"
He Jieyu immediately said with joy: "Thank you, Boss Zhang! No wonder Mr. Yan has taken a liking to you, you're really straightforward and generous in your dealings!"
"Congratulations, Host has received a sincere compliment from the target person, awarded with a bonus of 100,000 yuan!"
Zhang Jingdong smiled and shook his head, then stepped forward, opened the car door, and sat in the back.
Seeing this, He Jieyu carefully put away the Bugatti Veyron keys, and then took the driver's seat.
At this moment, He Jieyu glanced at Zhang Jingdong in the rearview mirror: "Boss Zhang, I'm really curious. It looks like we're about the same age, but how did you manage to make so much money?"
"Don't tell me you inherited your family business, I know you're not a rich second-generation heir."
Zhang Jingdong paused for a moment and replied: "Do you want to hear the truth, or a lie?"
"Of course, I want to hear the truth."
"I'm afraid if I tell you the truth, it will overturn your beliefs and perspective on life."
"Really..." He Jieyu turned to look at Zhang Jingdong, her voice excited: "Then I'm even more eager to hear this truth!"
"Alright then..." Zhang Jingdong touched his nose: "Basically, with anything I do, I first set a goal and then take action towards that goal."
"The reason I've made so much money, especially recently, is because my target has been Mr. Yan, and she is very wealthy, so to win her over, I had to become even wealthier."
"Once I set that goal, making money became quite simple for me. The point is whatever makes money, that's what I do. It may sound blunt, but if you think about it, this is how most rich people make their money."
Seeing that He Jieyu was a bit confused, Zhang Jingdong continued: "For example, if I know that running a bar makes money, then I will find every way to seriously open a profitable bar."
"Or if I know that running an entertainment company makes money, I will use all the resources and connections I have to seriously open a profitable entertainment company."
"In my opinion, whether a person can make money largely depends on their execution ability."
"Some people make money because when they know a certain avenue can make money, they take action quickly. Regardless of the obstacles they face along the way, they can solve them properly and ultimately achieve their goal."
"The reason why most people don't have money is that when they know a certain avenue can make money, they don't take action right away. Instead, they quickly envision all the difficulties that might arise in doing this thing, and when they see that the difficulties are just too many, they persuade themselves to give up."
"As for why you haven't made money, I think you don't fit into either of the two categories I mentioned. Your main reason lies in the lack of urgency to make money."
He Jieyu frowned slightly: "What do you mean?"
Zhang Jingdong sighed: "Not just you, I think this is a common reason among most rich second-generation kids because you've never tasted the lack of money from a young age."
"You have never experienced the desperation of being unable to pay the rent immediately and ending up sleeping on the streets if you don't make money this month, so you won't have that desperate drive to make money."
"However, you are smart and lucky, so I think although it's hard for you to make big money on your own, you should have no problem making ten or twenty million in a year during your university period."
Upon hearing this, He Jieyu immediately became interested: "From what you're saying, it seems like you could offer me the opportunity to make that kind of money."
Zhang Jingdong nodded meaningfully: "Aren't you studying in Europe? In the next one or two years, I will be doing some business in Europe, and by then you could be my investment advisor."
"Investment advisor? But I... I'm not particularly skilled in investment matters at the moment."
Zhang Jingdong curled his lip: "You're just too honest, aren't you? Do I really need to spell it out for you? Named an investment advisor, but actually just to have you as a guide and translator, that much you can handle, right?"
He Jieyu immediately relaxed: "I have no problem with that, my English was fine before I went abroad, and I'm learning French and German now. I'll definitely be able to interpret for you when the time comes."
Zhang Jingdong couldn't help but tease her: "If you could make hundreds of millions just by translating for me, don't you think you would feel a bit guilty?"
He Jieyu pursed her lips: "Then what else do you want me to do?"
"In the next year, get to know the main sights and whatnot of the major European countries, and then you take me to visit all of them."
"What exactly does 'whatnot' refer to..." Suddenly, He Jieyu thought of something, and her voice became coy: "You're actually thinking of going to those places, you... are you being fair to Mr. Yan?"
Zhang Jingdong shook his head with a smile: "I'm just going to have a look; I'm not actually going there to do anything. After all, it's quite famous in Europe, I'm just curious!"
"You think even a three-year-old would believe that, huh... to think you're this kind of person, it looks like I need to reassess whether you are really suitable to be with Mr. Yan!"
