Qi Tongwei: Sign-in relationship started during student days

Chapter 573 Ma Xiaojun, a man with a profound family background

Surprisingly, the call was not from any subordinate, but from Ma Xiaojun, his classmate and good friend.

Qi Tongwei suppressed his anger.

Ma Xiaojun rarely calls me in recent years except during the holidays. I guess what’s the matter with him calling me so late at night?

After the call was connected, just as Qi Tongwei had guessed, Ma Xiaojun said as soon as he opened his mouth that he wanted Qi Tongwei to do him a favor.

Qi Tongwei thought it was a work issue and asked what it was.

Ma Xiaojun said: "I have a cousin who is quite close to me, Tong Wei Ge. He has been working in Shenzhen Stock Exchange for a few years. He came home recently and found me. He said he wanted to start an Internet company and hoped I could lend him some money.

I agreed, but this Internet company didn't sound very reliable, so I suggested that he open an Internet cafe.

He disagreed at first, but later I took him to visit several Internet cafes in Yantai. When he saw that the business was booming, he agreed.

However, he has a big appetite and he wants to get the best, so he plans to buy a batch of Shengtian computers.

I called and found out that the orders for Shengtian computers are already scheduled for several months later. I have no choice but to come to you for help. I know my sister-in-law is the president of Shengtian. Can you do me a favor and ask her to give us a batch first?

"You kid, you went through so much trouble, and it turns out you just wanted to buy a computer. I thought you were planning to be promoted to deputy director."

Ma Xiaojun chuckled a few times: "Deputy Director, there's no need to rush. I'm only 28, still very young."

"Okay, you're content, which is a great thing." Qi Tongwei said, "Your sister-in-law is here with me now, you can talk to her yourself." Then he handed the phone to Luo Qian, "This time it's not my call, it's yours."

Luo Qian took the phone suspiciously, placed it on the coffee table, and pressed the hands-free key. "How could a call to me be on your phone?"

"It's Xiaojun. He said his cousin wants to buy a batch of computers from you, Shengtian."

The price of Shengtian computers is similar to that of other brands on the market, only 10% higher, but the quality and performance are far superior to other brands. If ordinary people want to buy them, they have to pay a higher price from scalpers to get the goods.

After Luo Qian picked up the phone, she exchanged a few pleasantries and asked about the other party's wife and children before returning to the main topic.

"Xiaojun, you know what, opening an internet cafe is quite profitable nowadays. Your cousin is quite smart."

Ma Xiaojun said, "Hey, what's the big deal? I just hope he doesn't lose money. Otherwise, I won't be able to face my parents. Of course, I'm not well off either, so I'd be heartbroken if he lost money."

Qi Tongwei said from the side: "Xiaojun, you have a wife and children to support now, so you should keep the money. In your opinion, you can ask him to go directly to Jiangchang Electronics Park and find the person in charge of Shengtian Group to get a batch of goods directly. Sign a contract first and pay it back in a few years when he makes money."

Ma Xiaojun said no, "Brother Tongwei, I know you want to help me, but we still have money to buy a few computers, so you don't have to worry about me."

Qi Tongwei did not force it, "Okay, if you are short of money, just tell us, we are not outsiders."

Ma Xiaojun was slightly moved, "Brother Tongwei, don't worry, I will."

Qi Tongwei looked at the time, let the two chat, and prepared to go upstairs to take a shower.

At this time, Luo Qian asked, "Xiaojun, what's your cousin's name? Send me his phone number so I can say hello to the people below."

"Ma Huateng, call 130..."

Qi Tongwei was startled and stopped going upstairs. He couldn't believe his ears and came over to ask, "Wait, Xiaojun, what did you say your cousin's name was?"

"Ma Huateng."

"Computer science?"

"Tong Wei Ge, you...how did you know?"

"Damn, Ma Huateng is your cousin!" Qi Tongwei felt like the world was upside down.

That’s not right. Isn’t Ma Huateng from Guangdong Province?

I have fallen into a misunderstanding. Time travel exists, so what's so strange about Ma Huateng being from Jinghai? Jinghai and Shantou are both close to the sea anyway.

"Brother Tongwei, do you know my brother?"

Qi Tongwei said, "I don't know him. Didn't you say he wanted to start an Internet company? Without a solid computer foundation, you can't succeed in this field."

"Brother Tongwei, you know what, his computer skills are really amazing. I think he's pretty good at it, and we all want him to join the government. With this skill, he's a rare talent in our city and county."

Qi Tongwei didn't respond and continued, "You just said he wanted to start an Internet company. What kind of business would he focus on?"

Ma Xiaojun replied, "He mentioned it to me, but I didn't ask him in detail. He said he wanted to learn something about IQ or something like that from abroad and make some kind of communication software. I figured, everyone has a phone these days, who still needs to sit on a computer to communicate? It's a waste of time."

IQCQ! Qi Tongwei's heart skipped a beat.

He can now be absolutely certain that this Ma Huateng is the one.

If I had taken a few more steps and gone into the bathroom, the business world would probably have lost a big boss and gained an Internet cafe owner.

"Xiaojun, you know what! Your cousin's idea coincides with mine. I'm also thinking of creating a software like this. So, don't let your cousin open an internet cafe. Now, have him buy a plane ticket to Hanjiang. I want to meet him. If he's a good fit, have him join Shengtian. We'll provide funding, a team, and train him well."

Ma Xiaojun was a little confused. "Brother Tongwei, is this computer chat software so promising?"

Qi Tongwei smiled and said, "Let's see if there's a future for it first. The Internet is still a nascent industry, and people don't use it for anything other than playing games. But I can tell you, if you treat your computer as just a game console or office tool, you're totally wrong. Okay, I hope to see him within three days."

"Okay, then I'll go inform him now."

"Well, tell him to contact me as soon as possible, and I'll send someone to the provincial capital to pick him up."

Ma Xiaojun agreed.

Qi Tongwei asked again, feeling uneasy, "Xiaojun, do you have any relatives named Ma Yun, Ma Si, Ma Yinjiu, Ma Baoguo, etc."

Ma Xiaojun didn't understand why Qi Tongwei suddenly asked this. After thinking carefully, he said, "Ma Yun, Musk doesn't have one, but Ma Baoguo does. He's a distant uncle of mine. He knows a bit of martial arts, and his most famous move is the Five Whips. He's quite famous in the martial arts world. Do you want me to contact him and ask him to come to Hanjiang to meet you?"

Ma Baoguo! ?

"Let's just forget it." Qi Tongwei sighed, "I didn't expect your family background, Xiaojun, to be quite impressive. Why didn't I hear your family also practiced martial arts?"

"Actually, I can do that too. I took the political science and law exam because I wanted to be a police officer."

"You?" Qi Tongwei thought of the man's frail figure back then. "Forget about being a police officer. I'm afraid you'll let the thieves escape."

"How is that possible?" Ma Xiaojun was unconvinced. "I'll whip him to death with five whips."

"Haha..." Somehow, Qi Tongwei couldn't help laughing.

The two exchanged a few jokes before ending the call.

After hanging up the phone, Qi Tongwei specifically told Luo Qian to pay attention to Ma Huateng.

Luo Qian asked: "What's so special about him?"

Qi Tongwei said noncommittally, "He's a talented person. Just based on this instant messaging software, his future achievements are limitless. I still say that Shengtian will expand its network business in the future. This pie is far bigger than you can imagine."

Luo Qian smiled meaningfully, glanced at Qi Tongwei's lower body, and licked her lips: "How big is it? It can be bigger than yours..."

Qi Tongwei didn't know whether to laugh or cry. People say that men are like wolves at thirty and tigers at forty. Luo Qian is about to reach the age of wolves. She is really... hungry, but... he likes it!

Qi Tongwei stepped forward to do the job, but Luo Qian stopped him with her hand, "Hey, wait a minute." Then she took out Qi Tongwei's cell phone and turned it off.

"Now there will be no more blind people."

"Smart move!"
