Chapter 1212 Mixed Doubles
Two days later, Xie Tiancheng and Liang Haihong sailed north and finally arrived in Tianjin three days later. After unloading the cargo in a hurry, the couple handed the boat over to Xia Maotian, and then they rushed to Beijing with great concern.
According to the address given by Li Yan, I found Xie Wanghe's company. When the elevator door opened, I saw the shiny glass curtain wall and the gold-plated "Jinbangtiming.com" logo. The receptionist was wearing delicate makeup and answering the phone with a smile. Liang Haihong clutched her husband's sleeve and said in a trembling voice: "How much is the rent per month?" Xie Tiancheng said nothing, his brows twisted into knots.
"Miss, is Xie Wanghe here?"
As soon as the receptionist hung up the phone, Xie Tiancheng hurried forward.
"Are you looking for Mr. Xie?"
"Yes, let's find him." Xie Tiancheng has already started rolling up his sleeves.
Seeing his fierce look, the receptionist frowned and asked, "Do you have an appointment?"
"Appointment? I need to make an appointment to see my son. Tell that Xiao Wang... Tell Xie Wanghe to get out right away."
When the receptionist heard that they were the boss's parents, she realized that she had made a mistake and quickly called Xie Wanghe.
When Xie Wanghe heard the receptionist say that his parents were coming, he immediately had a bad feeling and had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to the door.
"Dad, Mom, why are you here?"
Xie Tiancheng sneered: "Why can't my parents come to see my son's big business? He's doing well in business. This is the first time I've entered such a good office building in my life. The rent is not cheap, right?"
Xie Wanghe thought to himself that something was wrong. It was obvious from the look of his father that he was here with ill intentions, so he quickly changed the subject.
"It's not that expensive actually. There is a policy in place now that college students can get subsidies for starting their own businesses... Well, mom and dad, you must be exhausted from coming all the way here. Come to my office and take a rest first."
Just as Xie Tiancheng was about to lose his temper, Liang Haihong pulled his arm and whispered, "Wait until you find out clearly before you do anything."
A group of three people came to Xie Wanghe's office.
"Dad, Mom, drink up. I'll get you some water."
Xie Tiancheng snorted coldly and closed the door with his backhand: "Tell me, where did the one million you borrowed from Dahuazi, the three hundred thousand from Xingchi, and the one million that bought you a house go?"
"Dad, this is a company, can you please give me some face?" Xie Wanghe subconsciously stepped back.
Xie Tiancheng pressed on step by step, reaching out to pull out his belt: "You little bastard, it's fine that you cheated us, but you even cheated Da Huazi and Xing Chi out of their money. I think you're not going to stop me if I don't punish you. If you tell me a lie today, I'll break your legs!"
"Dad, what are you doing? Mom, please persuade my dad..."
However, this time Liang Haihong did not stand on his side.
"You know your father's temper very well. If you don't tell the truth, I can't help you."
Seeing that Xie Tiancheng had already pulled out the belt, Xie Wanghe secretly groaned. If he had known earlier, he would not have bought him this Seven Wolves belt, it was very sturdy.
"Dad... Dad, I said, put your belt down."
Xie Tiancheng threw the belt fiercely on the coffee table and said angrily, "Hurry up and tell me."
Xie Wanghe had no choice but to explain the company's operating situation with a bitter face.
"Don't use those messy professional terms to talk to me. Just tell me directly, how much of the 130 million that Dahuazi and Xingchi can get back now."
Xie Wanghe avoided his gaze: "Dad, the company is just starting out now, and this is the time when we need to invest..."
Before he could finish his words, Xie Tiancheng's hand shook and the belt hit Xie Wanghe's back, causing him to jump up on the spot in pain.
"Dad, you really hit me."
"You little bastard, if you play tricks on me again, I'll use my belt to whip you next time."
Xie Wanghe was about to plead with his mother, but when he met her disappointed eyes, he swallowed his words back instantly.
"Our family's 100 million, Dahuazi and Xingchi's 130 million, have all been spent, not a penny left."
Liang Haihong's eyes went dark and he almost fainted. Xie Tiancheng was angry and anxious: "That's 230 million. It's only been a short time and you've spent it all. Tell me the truth, did you gamble with others?"
"No, Dad, I swear to God I didn't gamble."
"So where did you spend it all?"
"Starting a business on the Internet requires investment in the early stages. Servers cost money, rent, water and electricity cost money, and promotion costs money every day..." Xie Wanghe simply gave up and poured out all his troubles of the past few days.
Xie Tiancheng's hand holding the belt was shaking: "I don't care if you pay for your own money, but you cheated Dahuazi and Xingchi's money. How can you let your mother face your Aunt Li, Aunt Liu and the others?"
Liang Haihong staggered to his son and said with tears in his eyes: "Wanghe, the one million is gone. Mom doesn't blame you, but you shouldn't have dragged everyone into the fire pit with you..."
"Mom, I can't accept this. My idea is so good..."
Seeing that his son was still stubborn, Xie Tiancheng raised the belt again and whipped him hard. This time he did not hold back, leaving a bloody mark with every whip. Xie Wanghe was whipped so hard that he ran around the office.
"Dad, there are so many employees watching us outside, please give me some face..."
The result was counterproductive. Xie Tiancheng beat him harder and harder: "Little bastard, you haven't even finished a year of college, you haven't even learned how to walk, and you want to run away. You want to imitate others to start a business, and you deliberately cheat the people around you. I want you to have good ideas, I want you to start a business..."
Xie Wanghe could only avoid his mother Liang Haihong to avoid being hit by the belt.
Ten minutes later, Xie Wanghe finally collapsed to the ground, and Xie Tiancheng was so tired that he held his knees and gasped for breath.
Just when Xie Wanghe thought it was finally over, Liang Haihong took the belt from Xie Tiancheng and walked towards his son step by step.
"mom……"
"I told you not to go to school honestly, and I asked you to lie to Dahuazi and Xingchi..."
At this moment, the office door was pushed open, and Xia Fenghua rushed in breathlessly: "Aunt Liang, please stop hitting me."
"Wanghe! Are you okay?" When Xia Fenghua saw the bloodstains on Xie Wanghe's back, tears instantly welled up in her eyes and she rushed over to help him.
Liang Haihong looked at Xia Fenghua, feeling guilty: "Dahuazi, I'm sorry for you. We, the Xie family, will definitely pay you back..."
Xia Fenghua wiped her tears and forced a smile: "It's okay, Auntie. The one million was unexpected money. Just treat it as if it never happened. Besides, I believe in Wang He. Even if he fails in this business venture, he will definitely succeed in the future."
"Dahuazi..." Xie Wanghe slowly put down his hands that were blocking his face and looked at Xia Fenghua in disbelief.
"You still believe me after all this, are you stupid?"
Xia Fenghua slapped Xie Wanghe in annoyance and said, "You are stupid. From childhood to adulthood, I have met two smartest people. One is Haozi and the other is you. If Haozi can succeed, I believe you can too."
Xie Tiancheng and Liang Haihong were moved when they saw this: "Look at what you have done..."
Xie Wanghe finally couldn't tie Xia Fenghua up anymore and burst into tears while hugging her.
Xie Tiancheng and Liang Haihong watched this scene, looked at each other, and retreated tacitly.
"Uncle Xie, Aunt Liang."
"Siyi, why are you..."
Ma Siyi said to them, "Uncle Xie, Aunt Liang, Haozi heard that you came to Beijing and wanted to treat you to a simple meal."
"Forget about the meal. Our ship is still in Tianjin and we have to hurry back." Xie Tiancheng declined.
As a result, Ma Siyi didn't give any explanation and pulled Liang Haihong to the elevator: "Aunt Liang, Haozi is waiting downstairs. It won't take long to have a meal."
In a simply decorated restaurant, Qin Hao waited for Xie Tiancheng and Liang Haihong to sit down, then he took out a bank card and handed it to them.
"Haozi, what do you mean?" Xie Tiancheng asked puzzledly.
Qin Hao poured water into their teacups: "Uncle Xie, there is 130 million in here. Return it to Aunt Li and Aunt Liu when you go back..."
Before he could finish his words, Xie Tiancheng pushed the bank card back.
"That won't work. We can't take your money."
Qin Hao said seriously: "Uncle Xie, I have never had the chance to repay you for saving my life. Just give me a chance to repay you."
Xie Tiancheng kept shaking his head: "That won't do. I just lent a hand at the beginning. How can I ask you for so much money..."
"Yes, we can't take this money." Liang Haihong also agreed.
Qin Hao pushed the bank card between the two again: "Uncle Xie, Aunt Liang, first of all, 130 million is not a big sum for me, but for you, it is difficult to take it out all at once."
"I know that given the relationship between Dahuazi, Xingchi and Wanghe, they may not urge him to pay back the money, but if you go back like this, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to face Aunt Li, Aunt Liu and the others calmly."
Liang Haihong was somewhat moved. The person she felt most sorry for now was Li Yan. She had seen how much Li Yan had suffered over the years. Li Yan had endured all these years just to give her daughter a good life, but her son ended up doing such a thing.
Xie Tiancheng still refused: "We will find a way to deal with the money ourselves..."
"Uncle Xie, the reason why I didn't give the money directly to Wang He is because he and I grew up together, and I know his character. Wang He is proud and conceited, and always thinks he can take shortcuts in everything through his own intelligence. If I don't let him fall hard this time, he might do something even more outrageous in the future."
Qin Hao paused and continued, "If it really doesn't work, just think of this money as a loan from me. It's better to owe one person than two. When you go back to return it to Aunt Li and Aunt Liu, tell them not to tell Da Huazi and Xing Chi, lest Da Huazi let it slip."
Xie Tiancheng and Liang Haihong looked at each other and felt relieved. 130 million was definitely an astronomical figure for them. It might take them ten or twenty years to pay it back. They would not be able to face their parents again if they did not pay it back.
Seeing this, Ma Siyi struck while the iron was hot: "Uncle Xie, Aunt Liang, this money is really nothing to Haozi. Haoyi Games was founded by him."
As he spoke, he took out his cell phone and searched for Haoyi Games, and soon the report on Sina.com popped up.
Xie Tiancheng and Liang Haihong were shocked when they saw it. A valuation of 10 billion?
If it weren't for the photo, they wouldn't have believed it.
"Uncle Xie, I won't be polite with you. I've accepted the bank card. This is the IOU. Give us some time to pay you back. We will definitely pay you back even if we have to sell everything we have."
Ma Siyi wanted to persuade him again, but Qin Hao took the IOU and said, "The password is Wanghe's birthday."
After dinner, Xie Tiancheng and Liang Haihong boarded the car back to Tianjin in the dark.
Half a month later, Xie Wanghe's "Jinbangtiming.com" was closed. He used the money from the sale of equipment to pay off his employees' wages and cancelled the company.
After Xie Tiancheng and Liang Haihong returned, they first used the 130 million to repay Li Yan and Liu Yuling. This prevented the relationship between the three families from falling out. However, Li Yan still had some concerns, and from then on she became more polite and less close to Liang Haihong.
After Shao Bingyi learned that the 300,000 yuan had been returned, he kept urging his wife to publish a book for him. Liu Yuling cherished the money that was finally recovered very much and refused to give it to him, which led to Shao Bingyi quarreling with her many times.
Liu Yuling simply took the one million and went to Beijing, where she bought a small apartment in Shao Xingchi's community and spent all the money. Her husband no longer had any options, and Shao Bingyi was so angry that he was jumping up and down, but he could do nothing about it.
Time flies, and three years have passed in the blink of an eye.
During these three years, Haoyi Games did not continue to focus on web games, but instead turned its development direction to the research and development of mobile games.
In 2009, with the help of Sequoia Capital, Qin Hao obtained the mobile game adaptation rights of DOTA. A year later, Haoyi Games launched a card game based on DOTA heroes - Dota Legend.
It took Dota Legend only three months to make its way onto all major mobile game rankings, and it not only dominated the domestic rankings, but also the international rankings, topping the IOS download rankings for six consecutive months.
According to calculations by an international media outlet, Dota Legend's annual revenue in 2010 was as high as $10 billion, and its net profit was a terrifying $4 million.
In 2011, Haoyi Games once again launched a hit mobile game - "Dota Glory", which is a mobile MOBA game. Although the heroes are still those of Dota, the equipment and gameplay have been lightweight, which greatly reduces the difficulty for players to get started.
Once launched, it immediately won the love of countless mobile game players. Penguin Games even spent 50 billion yuan to acquire 30% of Haoyi Games' shares.
Qin Hao, the golden rooster that lays eggs, naturally would not act rashly. However, the great success of "Dota Glory" is inseparable from the social attributes of Penguin. He still agreed to give Penguin the opportunity to lead the investment in the second round of financing, which also made Penguin the second largest shareholder of Haoyi Games.
In 2012, as graduation was approaching, Shao Xingchi and Xia Fenghua were busy attending campus job fairs, but Ma Siyi had no intention of staying in Beijing. She was eager to return to Honghuai, to the flower street courtyard that she had been dreaming about.
As for Zhou Haikuo, he has been working and studying part-time for the past three years, working as a technical manager at Haoyi Games while studying at Beijing Institute of Technology.
After the failure of his business, Xie Wanghe was depressed for a long time. Later, he picked himself up again with the encouragement of Xia Fenghua. After that, he tried to start a business twice during his college years. Although they all ended in failure, fortunately he did not leave too much debt.
"Time flies so fast. In the blink of an eye, four years of college are over!"
