Chapter 168 - 168 Inquiry
168 Inquiry
As for who Zhai Jing had sold the game to, Le Yan had been thinking about this question since the party ended.
She ruled out all the possible candidates and finally came up with an answer. She told Fu Sui her guess.
“How do you think Zhai Jing, a poor student with no money and no connections, managed to get close to President Ren of Dahong Corporation?”
Like Fu Sui, Le Yan didn’t believe that a business genius and Big Boss like Ren Rong would treat a poor student like Zhai Jing differently just because he was a Mathematics Competition champion. There must be a reason behind this.
“So I’m thinking, could he have sold the game to Dahong Corporation?”
After all, from Le Yan’s memory of her previous life, although the game company under Dahong Corporation was not very eye-catching now, it rose rapidly in a few years and took a big share of the domestic market, becoming one of the four famous game companies.
She had heard that although President Ren of Dahong Corporation wasn’t young, he had always loved playing games and was a loyal customer of that famous game overseas.
That was why he had been planning for the game industry for a long time and even said that he wanted to make a game of his own. If he saw the game in Zhai Jing’s hands, he might really be tempted and buy the game’s copyright.
After all, the game that Zhai Jing would release three years later would be promoted in cooperation with Dahong Corporation.
After listening to Le Yan’s guess, Fu Sui felt the tangled ball of thread in his mind suddenly reveal its end. That’s right. If there was a beneficial relationship between the two parties, it was not difficult to explain why Zhai Jing could be familiar with President Ren.
But to admit this guess made Fu Sui even more uncomfortable.
First, Zhai Jing had actually won Ren Rong’s favor with a game. This proved that he was very talented in this area. Secondly, to be valued by a business genius like Ren Rong proved that the game’s prospects were quite promising, yet he had missed this game.
It felt like a Gold Mountain had floated past him, but he had not been able to pick up a single piece of gold. Fu Sui let go of Le Yan’s hand with a serious face and took out his phone to dial a number.
It took a long time before the other party picked up.
“Second Young Master Fu, what do you want?” The middle-aged man’s voice was slightly frivolous and perfunctory.
Fu Sui frowned.
“I heard that the game company under your company has been making big moves recently?”
“Second Young Master Fu, you’re not thinking of ordering me to do something for you again, are you? I’ve been assigned to a remote branch company in the middle of nowhere, so how can I be in touch with so many things?”
The middle-aged man’s name was Wang Meng. He was one of the executives of Dahong Corporation who had helped Fu Sui cheat during the mathematics Competition. Later, Ren Rong found out about his cheating, so he transferred him to a branch company.
Wang Meng didn’t expect that his little trick would ruin his bright future.
Being transferred to a branch company, to put it nicely, was to open up new territory, but in fact, he had been exiled. Therefore, even if he became the Vice President of a branch company, he would still be sitting on the cold bench.
If he wanted to take another step forward, it would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
After the incident, if the Fu family hadn’t given him a sum of money to barely appease him, he might have caused some trouble. Now that Second Young Master Fu was calling him again, Wang Meng naturally couldn’t help but be sarcastic.
Fu Sui held back his temper and said patiently,
“You don’t have to do anything this time. You just need to help me find out some information.”
Wang Meng raised his eyebrows. It would be easy for him to get information. Although he had been sent to the border province, he had been in the headquarters for so many years and had many friends, so it wasn’t difficult for him to get information. However, he still pretended to be in a difficult position.
“I’m only the Vice President of a branch company. It’s not that easy to get information about the headquarters. Second Young Master Fu, please don’t make things difficult for me.”
When Fu Sui heard Wang Meng’s words, how could he not know that this person was trying to extort him? He lost his patience and gave him a number.
“It’s a fixed price. Are you going to do it? If we don’t do it, we won’t waste each other’s time.”
Wang Meng agreed readily when he heard the number.
“Seeing how urgent Second Young Master Fu is, it seems to be something important. I’ll help you ask around.”
It could only be said that Wang Meng was indeed someone who could make a name for himself in Dahong Corporation. Although Wang Meng liked to act arrogantly, as soon as Fu Sui transferred the money, there was immediate news from Dahong Corporation.
