Chapter 129: Zhou Wang’s bargaining chip
The group of people who came out of Professor Wang's house had a strong atmosphere of scholarship. I don't know which intellectuals they were from. Wang Hongying sent them to the intersection before turning back.
Wang Hongying, who wears glasses and is in her forties or fifties, has short, sleek hair. Her appearance is not much different from the one in Zhou Wang's memory, although Zhou Wang has not taken a few of her classes...
"Jiang Mo, are you here?"
Facing Jiang Mo and Jiang Qingkui who came up to say hello, Wang Hongying turned back. First she smiled and nodded at Jiang Mo, who had contacted her in advance, and then looked at Jiang Qingkui, who had her clothes in her pockets, with a very friendly expression.
"Qing Kui, how long have you been back in China? Have you met your teacher first?"
Facing Wang Hongying, Jiang Qingkui's face was no longer so cold, and she showed some smile.
"Well, when I came back, I went to Beidu first and stayed with the teacher for several days..."
"It's good to come back, it's good to come back... Don't stand still, go into the house first, Xiaohu, quickly ask your sister to make some tea and ask her not to stay in the room. She has seen Qingkui before. of."
Wang Hongying ordered everyone to enter the house while instructing her son.
When she came to the living room, Wang Hongying glanced at Zhou Wang and Tang Mao, held up her glasses and smiled.
"Hey, you guys have brought your boyfriends here, right?"
Www¤ ?? k?n¤ ?o
Jiang Mo didn't answer and glanced at Zhou Wang subconsciously. Zhou Wang walked forward with a smile and bowed slightly.
"Professor Wang, I am Jiang Mo's boyfriend Zhou Wang. You may not be familiar with me, but I am also a student at Cai University. I just graduated this year and I have taken your elective courses before!"
After Zhou Wang finished speaking, he suddenly heard the system prompt.
bite!
[The spiritual desire of the bound object Jiang Mo has been satisfied, and the desire consumption funds have been distributed]
Zhou Wang glanced at Jiang Mo in surprise, but the senior sister still had no obvious expression, only the corners of her mouth seemed to be curled up.
He glanced at the mobile phone in his hand. Let me go, are you serious about 1.88 million...
"Oh, who is your class teacher?"
While Zhou Wang was still smacking his lips, Wang Hongying asked with interest.
After Zhou Wang answered, Wang Hongying chatted with Zhou Wang for a few more words, then nodded and said nothing more.
In fact, she was doing it out of politeness. After all, no matter how outstanding a bachelor's degree graduate was, she wouldn't be able to attach much importance to her. Besides, Wang Hongying had no impression of Zhou Wang's name at all, which only meant that he was probably not among the "excellent" either. in...
At this time, Jiang Qingkui, who found the opportunity to interject, also introduced Tang Mao.
"Professor Wang, this is Tang Mao, a local friend introduced to me by a classmate. I haven't been back for many years and was afraid that I would not be able to find my way, so he came with me today. I hope you don't mind."
"Hello, Professor Wang."
Tang Mao was obviously not very good at dealing with people like Wang Hongying, and Zhou Wang, who was smiling awkwardly, couldn't stand it.
"You are a guest when you come to your door. Come and sit down..."
Wang Hongying greeted him with a smile and no airs. Her personality seemed to be exactly what Ding Yi described.
"Qing Kui, this is the first time you and Jiang Mo are meeting. Let me introduce you."
When he heard that Jiang Qingkui was not only a returned Ph.D. from Harvard, but also a former top scorer in the college entrance examination, even with Jiang Mo's temperament, he couldn't help but express some surprise.
"Senior Sister Qingkui, hello, I am Jiang Mo."
"Junior sister Jiang, you are very beautiful. I really should let my prejudiced foreign classmates see you and know what a real oriental beauty looks like..."
"Sister Qingkui, you are also very beautiful..."
While the reserved Jiang Mo and the faintly smiling Jiang Qingkui were exchanging business blows, Zhou Wang also figured out the relationship between Jiang Qingkui and Wang Hongying.
Probably, Jiang Qingkui's tutor at Peking University when he was studying for bachelor's and master's degree, and Wang Hongying were senior fellow students, so Wang Hongying was Jiang Qingkui's senior uncle or something...
However, Zhou Wang could sense that Wang Hongying was also doubtful about Jiang Qingkui's sudden visit.
Sure enough, after chatting for a while, Wang Hongying took the initiative and asked: "Qingkui, what are your plans for returning to China this time? I heard from Lao Gao that their law firm also sent you an offer, and you can choose any city. But you seem to have refused?"
Seeing Wang Hongying introduce the topic, Jiang Qingkui glanced at Jiang Mo and Zhou Wang hesitantly, but in the end she didn't avoid anything and said seriously:
"Teacher Wang, I do have something to ask you for help with."
"Qing Kui, tell me. You're welcome to me."
Wang Hongying smiled and waved her hand.
"I also heard from the teacher that you manage a venture fund, right?"
"Yes, it was one of my former students who took the lead after he succeeded in his career. It aims to help some juniors with ideas. But it's not about management. I just help coordinate... Hey, why are you asking this? Are you? Want to start your own law firm?"
As Wang Hongying spoke, she suddenly realized something was wrong, and she looked at Jiang Qingkui in surprise.
With her wisdom, as soon as Jiang Qingkui opened her mouth, she already knew why the other party came.
Jiang Qingkui nodded, "I have the idea of ??starting my own business, but not a law firm."
"What else can I do? Set up a legal education institution? Or do academic research?" Wang Hongying asked doubtfully.
"None of them..."
Jiang Qingkui looked a little embarrassed to say it, but she finally said it, "I want to do something else. The industry I am currently targeting is trade."
"What?"
Wang Hongying thought she had heard wrongly. After confirming with Jiang Qingkui, she stopped smiling for the first time.
"Qingkui, aren't you talking nonsense? You got a doctorate from Harvard Law School. You know better than me how valuable it is. I didn't accuse you of anything when you returned to China rashly. But now you are Tell me, are you going to give up your previous major, go to other industries, and start a business from scratch?"
Wang Hongying asked incomprehensibly.
"Mr. Wang, it's because I studied law for so many years that I want to do something else."
Jiang Qingkui explained calmly, "I can't get used to eating foreign food, and I can't sleep well. I told my teacher when I went abroad that I would come back."
"Qingkui, if you are worried about the different legal systems at home and abroad, it is not a problem at all. Foreign-related lawsuits are also very popular now. With your ability, it will be easy to get business licenses from both countries, right?"
Wang Hongying frowned, "Okay, even if you don't want to be a lawyer, what about coaching? There are many places you can choose from, right?"
"My alma mater and Hong Kong City University did send me letters of appointment, but... I rejected them all."
Jiang Qingkui was silent for a moment, then faced Wang Hongying's disbelieving gaze, "Teacher Wang, I'm just tired of it. Can you understand?"
"You..."
Wang Hongying, who seemed to be very angry with Jiang Qingkui, took a few deep breaths and said: "No wonder your teacher called before and said that he gave me a chance to persuade you, Qingkui, some things cannot be decided hastily..."
"Teacher Wang, this is not a sudden idea. I have had this idea for a long time. In the past few years abroad, I not only completed a doctorate in law, but also obtained undergraduate degrees in economics and management, e-commerce and accounting."
Jiang Qingkui said softly.
Seeing Jiang Qingkui's firm attitude, Wang Hongying felt helpless, "Even so, you still think of some things too simply..."
At this time, Wang Hongying's daughter came over to deliver tea, temporarily interrupting the conversation between the two.
Zhou Wang on the side was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the sister Qingkui from next door would have such thoughts when she returned to China this time...
Starting a business?
Zhou Wang, who had learned a profound lesson in this regard, could only shake his head.
In fact, he thinks what Professor Wang said is absolutely correct. You, a highly educated person majoring in law, already have a starting point that countless people can only look up to. If you don't give full play to your own advantages, but think about messing around in other industries, it is somewhat a bit unfair. Serious illness——
Zhou Wang's theory was once again verified.
Gee, but her idea matches her online name quite well.
What she wants to kill is probably her own robin...
Zhou Wang shook his head and took a look at Wang Hongying's daughter. Well, after taking away the beauty, the difference in sound between herself and a certain girl is a bit big, but it's not a big problem. Those few singing videos of her are still very interesting.
Wang Hongying's daughter was a little absent-minded for some reason. She put down her tea, said hello and wanted to run away.
"What's wrong with you kid? Why don't you sit down and talk to your sister Qingkui?" Wang Hongying stopped her dissatisfied.
"Oh, Mom, I have something going on right now, something big, something serious!"
Gao Xiaoyin had a little excitement on his brows, and smiled mysteriously at Wang Hongying, "I'll talk to you later. You greet the senior sisters first!"
After Gao Xiaoyin finished speaking, he ran away. Wang Hongying could only shake her head helplessly, "This child..."
Wang Hongying said to Jiang Qingkui again: "Qingkui, you can talk about this later. The entrepreneurial fund is not as simple as you think. What's more, in principle, the fund only provides assistance to talents who intend to engage in the legal industry..."
Listening to Wang Hongying's words of rejection, Jiang Qingkui's eyes dimmed a little, but she couldn't say anything and could only nod.
At this time, Wang Hongying turned to Jiang Mo.
"Jiang Mo, why are you looking for me today?"
"Professor Wang, Jiang Mo may be a little embarrassed, let me speak for her."
Zhou Wang took the initiative to take over the conversation.
Wang Hongying was surprised and nodded thoughtfully.
"That's right, Jiang Mo's father is currently in some trouble, and you are an expert in this field, so she wants to ask you to give her some advice..."
Zhou Wang said tactfully while observing Wang Hongying's expression.
"I know what's going on."
Sure enough, Wang Hongying, who didn't have much expression, waved her hand halfway through, stopping Zhou Wang from continuing.
At this moment, Zhou Wang confirmed his vague guess.
Yes, Wang Hongying had indeed known what happened at Jiang Mo's house for a long time.
Most students may not be able to associate this aspect if they don't pay attention to it, but Wang Hongying is different.
Because Jiang Mo was her student, it meant that she would definitely be able to see Jiang Mo's personal files. In addition, Jiang Yunfei's case was still such a big deal at that time. As an expert in the legal field, it was impossible for Wang Hongying not to pay attention to it. After this case...
Maybe Jiang Mo felt something about it himself, which was why he had been unable to speak. Since Wang Hongying had known about it for a long time, she had never mentioned it to Jiang Mo. This to a certain extent represented an attitude...
It doesn't matter what the reason is. Zhou Wang is glad that he came to the right place today. Jiang Mo probably wouldn't be able to do it by himself, and with a little effort from him, it may not really be effective, but at least he hopes Much bigger.
"Jiang Mo, actually I have been looking for a chance to chat with you recently."
Facing Jiang Mo's expectant gaze, Wang Hongying said after careful consideration: "This matter about your father... is difficult."
As soon as Wang Hongying spoke, Jiang Mo's expression darkened.
"I can ask someone to inquire again later. If I can do anything, I will help, but you can't have too high hopes, do you understand?"
Wang Hongying said it in a vague way, but the meaning was actually very clear.
Jiang Mo's real request is that Wang Hongying can personally take over the lawsuit——
Although Wang Hongying is a professor at Cai University, she is also a leading lawyer in criminal cases, but there are very few lawsuits in which she can be called upon to take action.
From Wang Hongying's own perspective, it is normal for her to have concerns.
The impact of this kind of case is very bad, and it is almost impossible to reverse the case. She also has to consider whether taking on this kind of case will ruffle her feathers.
For cultural people, fame is sometimes more important than ratio...
"I understand, Professor."
Jiang Mo nodded numbly.
Zhou Wang didn't say much, not because there were outsiders present at the moment, but mainly because the bargaining chip he put out was not based on words. On the contrary, he and Jiang Mo were actually not suitable to be present.
So after Professor Wang expressed what he meant, Zhou Wang gently pulled Jiang Mo and stood up.
"Professor Wang, we won't disturb you anymore. It's your first time to visit you today and I don't know what to give you. I heard from Jiang Mo that you like to drink tea. This is the tea we picked at a tobacco and alcohol store for you. As a meeting gift, please be sure to accept it."
Zhou Wang said, picking up the gift bag at his feet and handing it to the table.
Wang Hongying originally wanted to refuse, but when she heard that it was just a casual purchase at a tobacco and alcohol store and it shouldn't be too expensive, she smiled and nodded.
"Okay, thank you. Today is indeed an unlucky day. The teacher won't let you stay. Zhou Wang, next time you remember to come to the house with Jiang Mo to eat and drink and try my cooking."
After saying goodbye, Wang Hongying asked Gao Xiaohu to see them off.
...
After a while, Gao Xiaohu came back, but there was another person behind him.
"Hey, Lao Gao, did you get off work so early today?"
Wang Hongying was a little surprised when she saw Gao Zhenbang wearing a suit and walking through the door.
"Well, I was just doing the property registration nearby. I heard that Qing Kui was coming today, so I came back directly from get off work... Fortunately, I caught up. I want to have a good chat with Qing Kui."
Gao Zhenbang took off his coat and hung it at the door, while walking over with a smile.
"Uncle Gao!"
Jiang Qingkui stood up helplessly and motioned for Tang Mao to say hello with her.
When she saw Zhou Wang and Jiang Mo leaving, she knew she might not gain much today and wanted to go with them. Who knew that Gao Zhenbang would come back at this time...
Needless to say, Gao Zhenbang will definitely persuade her to join a law firm.
But there was nothing she could do at this time. Jiang Qingkui had no choice but to sit down again.
"Dad, you're back!"
Hearing the noise, Gao Xiaoyin also ran out of the room and said with a smile, "I'll make you tea!"
"Wait a minute...is this the tea sent by Qing Kui? I just happened to be tired of the old tea given by Xiao Ding, so let's try this."
Gao Zhenbang saw the cowhide gift bag without the logo on the table and couldn't help but smile and picked it up.
"It was given by Jiang Mo and her boyfriend. This child is so polite now... Did you meet them just now?"
"I met her and said hello. Not to mention, her boyfriend is quite handsome and has a good temperament. For some reason, he looks familiar to me..."
Gao Zhenbang said with a smile, opened the gift bag casually, and was startled immediately.
Gao Zhenbang's expression became more serious, and he took out the two pieces of tea wrapped in a black and white gift box.
It is said that Professor Wang Hongying loves to drink tea, but in fact he is the one who really understands tea. It is also because of his influence that Wang Hongying gives the impression to outsiders that she likes to drink tea.
At this time, Gao Zhenbang was surprised when he saw the words "Iceland Old Village" on the gift box. When he looked at it carefully, Gao Zhenbang couldn't help frowning.
"Iceland Old Village No. 50? This..."
"What's the matter, Lao Gao?"
Wang Hongying realized something was wrong from her husband's expression and couldn't help but ask, "Is this tea... very rare?"
"It can't be considered rare. After all, you can still buy it if you have money, but... it's a bit too expensive."
Gao Zhenbang smiled bitterly and said, "If I remember correctly, this 999-gram cake may cost upwards of RMB 100,000..."
"Dad, Mom, isn't there a price here?"
At this time, Gao Xiaohu, who flipped through the gift bag out of curiosity, pulled out the tea collection certificate and invoice, and then exclaimed: "Damn it, one hundred and sixty thousand for a cake!"
"How many?"
Wang Hongying didn't care that her son was swearing again. She took the invoice from Gao Xiaohu and looked at it carefully. Isn't it...
The combined price of these two cakes of tea exceeds 330,000...
And to prove it's not a fake, the collection certificate issued by the Pu'er Tea Industry Association is also there!
"Hongying, did you agree to help Jiang Mo represent her father in the second trial?"
Such an expensive gift made Gao Zhenbang subconsciously think of this possibility, and he asked solemnly.
"No, Jiang Mo and I made it quite clear that this case is very difficult..."
Wang Hongying was also a little confused, and then smiled bitterly, "I heard they said they bought the tea at the tobacco and alcohol store, so I accepted it. I didn't expect it to be so expensive. Jiang Mo gave me a few tea leaves on my birthday last time. Wan's skin care products are now available again..."
"Hey, is there something else in there?"
At this time, Gao Xiaohu seemed to have found something in the gift bag.
Gao Zhenbang and his wife, whose nerves were on edge, could no longer care about Jiang Qingkui and Tang Mao. They hurried over and saw Gao Xiaohu taking out two more things that were suppressed underneath.
The first destination was a check from a local city commercial bank. The name of this check had been filled in, but the amount was blank.
In addition to the check, there is also what we might call a "business card."
In addition to Zhou Wang's name and phone number, there was also a line written on the back:
"Professor Wang, please forgive me for expressing my sincerity in this way. Even if you don't agree with what I have paid in the end, you don't have to have any psychological burden. If you change your mind after thinking about it, this check will be your payment." Your attorney's fees."
After reading it, Wang Hongying couldn't help but fell silent.
The boy named Zhou Wang's intention has been very obvious. As long as she agrees, she can charge as much legal fees as she wants...
"Damn it, so he really has a Ferrari?"
Gao Xiaohu yelled again.
Everyone else was a little confused and didn't know what this had to do with Ferrari. Only Tang Mao's face turned ugly.
He was embarrassed to walk over, so he didn't see the check or business card, but the two boxes of tea worth more than 300,000 yuan were enough to illustrate Zhou Wang's financial resources...
Jiang Qingkui didn't have such scruples, but after reading the content on the business card curiously, she couldn't help but wonder, why did the name Zhou Wang sound familiar the more she heard it?
But she really couldn't remember where she had heard this name...
At this time, it was lawyer Gao Zhenbang who muttered the name "Zhou Wang", and his expression suddenly changed.
But before she could say anything, Gao Xiaoyin on the side said "Yeah" and grabbed the business card.
"Zhou Wang, is he that Mr. Zhou?"
"Xiaoyin, what are you talking about, Mr. Zhou?"
Wang Hongying raised her head.
"Mom, this is the good news I just wanted to share with you... I wonder if you have heard of Wuyou Media, which is the number one MCN company in the industry!"
Gao Xiaoyin couldn't hide his excitement and said, "Just a while ago, the agent from Wuyou Media contacted me and said that he would provide me with an A-level contract..."
"Emm, parents, you may not understand. Wuyou Media has several contracts. A-level is the one with the highest salary. Many big influencers with millions of fans may not be able to sign this contract. The bundled resources included in it are, In terms of money, it's worth at least millions!"
"Anyway, if I agree to sign this contract, your daughter will be a sure winner!"
"Then what does this have to do with Zhou Wang?" Wang Hongying digested it for a while before asking in confusion.
"The agent who contacted me said that this was personally ordered by Mr. Zhou, the company's shareholder. The agent even inquired about my relationship with Mr. Zhou. At that time, I was still confused..."
"So, Zhou Wang is the shareholder of this big media company you mentioned?"
Wang Hongying finally couldn't keep calm anymore.
"Wuyou Media is really on the right track..."
What Wang Hongying didn't expect at this time was that after Gao Zhenbang muttered something to himself, he suddenly sat down next to her and said to her seriously:
"Hongying, I know that our husband and wife have agreed not to interfere with each other's work, but if possible, I still hope that you will think about it carefully. If you can, try to take on this case..."
