NOVEL NEXT Chapter 350: Volunteering
Chen Cheng looked at her, "You know this?"
"Yeah! Since the last visit to the courtyard, Li Ya's attitude towards me at school has gotten much better."
Liu Zhiya explained in detail, "I ran into her the other day, I greeted her and offered her milk tea, she said she had to go home, Mei Xiang was waiting for her."
"Later, after chatting a bit more, I found out Mei Xiang was staying at her place."
Chen Cheng smiled slightly, "You guys underestimate Mei Xiang, she's truly a wealthy lady."
"A wealthy lady?"
Chen Cheng nodded, "After signing the contract today, along with previous ones, it'll be six or seven hundred billion, isn't that big?"
"Six or seven hundred billion?!"
Liu Zhiya and Liu Zhiying exclaimed in shock, their jaws nearly hitting the floor.
They could never have imagined that the gentle and always smiling Japanese girl would possess such astonishing wealth.
Liu Zhiying muttered, "Oh my god, this is unbelievable! I always thought she was just an ordinary exchange student..."
Liu Zhiya also felt very shocked; she recalled chatting with Li Ya before, who mentioned Mei Xiang had a good family background, but she only thought it was a moderate middle-class level, never imagining she was so wealthy.
Chen Cheng waved his hand in front of them, laughed and said, "It's not that big of a deal, right? Doesn't she usually get on well with you without any pretensions?"
"Yes."
"Yes..."
Chen Cheng laughed, "Let's eat, I'll take you guys to see her later."
Just as he finished speaking, he put down his chopsticks and looked at the two sisters in front of him, "Do you know how to write speeches?"
"My sister surely does! She's really good at studying!"
Liu Zhiying pursed her lips, "Brother Cheng, I've written quite a few speeches, but for a business signing ceremony speech, I have no experience. But I can try; what kind of content do you want me to include?"
Chen Cheng briefly explained the content of the signing, Liu Zhiying listened more attentively than she had in the office earlier; to her, this was the first time Chen Cheng needed her to handle something.
"Oh... let me think..." Saying this, Liu Zhiying took out paper and pen from her bag, "This seems pretty difficult to write..."
Chen Cheng laughed, "It's not particularly complicated, one or two hundred words will do."
Liu Zhiying nodded, "What is this niobium?"
"Sis, I'll look it up for you." Liu Zhiya quickly took out her phone to search for relevant information.
The two sisters worked together, and in about ten minutes, a speech draft was handed to Chen Cheng, "Brother Cheng, take a look, is this okay?"
Chen Cheng took the notebook and looked at the elegant handwriting, "The handwriting is really beautiful, just like you—graceful."
Liu Zhiying was embarrassed by the compliment.
Chen Cheng read softly, "'Honorable guests, today we gather here to witness the important cooperation signing between Dili Private Equity, China Tungsten New Material, and Xingye International. Niobium ore, as a strategic key resource...'
Liu Zhiying's speech draft had a strong student flavor; for a student who hasn't entered society, it was quite good.
But as Chen Cheng read more, he felt this speech draft seemed more suitable for a student council small-scale work summary rather than a billion-dollar signing ceremony.
"Brother Cheng, is it okay?" The two sisters looked at Chen Cheng with eager eyes.
Chen Cheng looked at the two sisters full of anticipation and didn't want to dampen their spirits, "Really impressive."
"Sis, I knew you could do it!~"
Liu Zhiying also smiled happily, "Brother Cheng, as long as I can help you, that's enough."
"Alright, let's eat."
"Okay!"
The three ate in the cafeteria, laughing and chatting, while Chen Cheng watched the two innocent girls, secretly sighing, "Still too pure."
...
...
China Tungsten New Material, conference center.
A giant banner fluttered in the wind, boldly displaying "Dili Private Equity, China Tungsten New Material, and Xingye International Strategic Cooperation Signing Ceremony and the Dili-China-Xing Industry Fund Inauguration Ceremony," as if announcing a major transformation in the finance and mining industries is about to unfold.
Numerous media reporters had gathered early, ready with their equipment.
Inside the venue, the meticulously arranged environment imbued the whole occasion with solemnity.
On the stage, the massive backdrop displayed the names of the three companies, signifying the tranquil cooperation about to begin.
The Liu sisters were attending such an event for the first time, and with one of them in a wheelchair, they attracted quite a bit of attention.
Fortunately, Chen Cheng called Tong Jialu to accompany them; otherwise, the usually confident Liu sisters wouldn't know where to put their hands.
"Don't be nervous," Tong Jialu smiled, "Just quietly watch."
After the recent showdown, the girls had a new perception of the slightly older Sister Jialu.
"Sister Xiao Lu, does Brother Cheng often come to events like this?" Liu Zhiying asked.
Tong Jialu nodded, "Yes, Brother Cheng is very active in the business field, participating in many important occasions like this. Each cooperation signifies new opportunities and challenges, and he always manages calmly, leading parties to reach agreements."
Liu Zhiying and Liu Zhiya were full of admiration, and Liu Zhiya curiously asked, "Sister Xiao Lu, is Brother Cheng like the domineering CEO in TV dramas at these events?"
Tong Jialu couldn't help but laugh, "He's definitely impressive, but Brother Cheng isn't a high-and-mighty domineering CEO. He always wins partners over with his unique charisma and keen business insight. Plus, he treats everyone sincerely without putting on airs."
