Chapter 1465 Passing the Ladder to Success (Third update, please subscribe)
When the phone rang, Monday's regular meeting was almost in progress.
Looking at the phone, Li Yian was stunned for a moment. It was a private phone, and only family members and a few friends knew the number.
So Li Yian took the phone, and then a strange voice came from the receiver.
"Excuse me, is this Mr. Li?"
Mr. Li?
This title is very unfamiliar.
"Ah, I am, who are you?"
"I am Officer Fang from the Third Police Station. Song Mingxuan is your son, right? When we were dealing with a traffic accident, we found that your son and two classmates were wandering on the street during school hours... Please come over now. , deal with this matter.”
Police phone number!
After the call was connected and the other party identified himself, he gave the order directly.
When he hung up the phone, Li Yian still hadn't reacted. Noticing your expression, Li Guoren asked curiously:
"Sir, what can I do?"
Facing Li Guoren's question and the curious eyes of others, Li Yian really wanted to ask - how should he deal with being called a parent?
I was called a parent!
A few minutes later, the two cars drove out of the official residence and headed towards the city. Li Yian's mobile phone rang. The world's first cellular mobile network had been built in Chang'an city. Relying on hundreds of base stations, the signal covers most of Chang'an.
It was Lautrey's phone number, she explained in a squeaky voice.
"You mean he thinks I'm not doing my job."
"Yes, that's right..."
Lautrey suppressed the urge to laugh and said:
"So, Officer Fang requires you to be present. Well, I guess it's to educate, educate..."
Before she finished speaking, Lautrey laughed out loud. Listening to the laughter on the other end of the phone, Li Yian could imagine how proud this girl was. Just when she was about to speak, Lautrey stopped laughing and said ：
"Captain Xu's car is outside, otherwise, I would ask him to..."
Captain Xu is the captain of the security team responsible for the safety of Lautrey and the children. With his Secret Service ID, he can definitely solve this matter.
"Well..."
After thinking for a while, Li Yian said:
"Forget it, my son skipped school and went to the police station. The father also has the responsibility. Well, I'm on my way!"
Knowing that his father was already on his way to the police station, Song Mingxuan was completely confused. He scratched his head from time to time and looked at his mother with pitiful eyes. He only said - Mom, please help me. .
As for Lautrey's brows were also furrowed, she was not worried about anything else, but she didn't want the child's identity to be exposed.
Children from ordinary families are children from ordinary families.
She didn't know her father's identity until she was a teenager, and Yihan and the others didn't know Li Yi'an's identity until they were almost in their teens.
Just as she was thinking, a police officer came over soon, looked at Song Mingxuan and the other three, and said: |
"Children wandering on the street? They are all suspects here. It is not appropriate to stay here. The parents haven't come here yet? Let them wait in the reception room first."
In this way, the three people finally left the hall. After a while, another police officer came over and said:
"Officer Fang, the child's parents are here, over there in the reception room."
"Well, I see,"
Officer Fang took the folder and walked directly to the reception room. As soon as he opened the door, he said:
"Mr. Li, I am the police officer in charge of this case. I know you are very busy at work, but no matter how busy you are, you cannot neglect your children's education, especially when..."
The words stopped suddenly. Officer Fang saw that the man in the room looked familiar, not familiar, but very familiar. He was the same person as the photo on the wall.
Without any hesitation, he stood at attention and saluted. Then, what should be said?
"Officer Fang, I'm very sorry for causing you trouble."
Like all parents, Li Yian first expressed his apology.
"No trouble, no trouble. This, this is the duty."
Although the air-conditioning was sufficient, Officer Fang felt that his back was sweating, and the director beside him also looked very embarrassed.
Now there is only one thought left in Officer Fang's mind - what is going on?
Isn't that guy's surname Song?
"Thank you very much for your hard work. I have neglected my children's education."
Li Yian said sincerely:
"In this way, I assure you, this is the first time and it will definitely be the last time."
A few minutes later, Li Yian left the police station, while Song Mingxuan sat next to him without daring to express his anger.
"I heard from your mother that you got a game console, right?"
"Yes, yes, it's just a game console."
Then he specifically emphasized:
"I did it in my spare time, and it won't affect my studies, I promise. This time it was a complete accident, because we have no money, so we hope to get investment from the Growth Ladder Fund."
Listening to his son's assurances and explanations.
Li Yian just nodded, then looked at his son beside him and said.
"Do you think you can get their investment?"
"It must be possible. Dad, who doesn't like games?"
Song Mingxuan said:
"Especially for young people, they definitely need such electronic games. I believe it will be welcomed by the market." "Tell us about your game console."
Li Yian said:
A few minutes later, looking at the sketch in his hand, Li Yian fell into silence.
It’s an arcade!
Its appearance looks very similar to that of an arcade machine, and even the operating handles are somewhat similar. The reason why it is similar is that after learning that his son had created a video game on a computer, Li Yian specifically told him about the arcade machine, but he did not expect that he actually built the arcade machine.
"Why haven't you thought about getting investment from me or your grandpa?"
Facing his father's problem, Song Mingxuan thought for a while and then said:
"Dad, Mom said that we are children from ordinary families, so we should follow the path of ordinary families. It is impossible for children from ordinary families to get financial support from their families. Even I have cheated. After all, after so many years, I have received A lot of lucky money.”
Li Yian was stunned by his son's answer. He obviously did not expect to get such an answer.
"Dad..."
When Song Mingxuan was about to speak, Li Yian said:
"Let's go to the Ladder of Growth Foundation together. Well, I will send you to the entrance of the foundation, and then the rest is up to you."
After rubbing his son's hair, Li Yian said:
"Let's forget about this matter, but you will never skip class again, you know?"
"Yes! I promise."
Soon the car stopped in front of the Growth Ladder Fund building. While his son and friends were busy there, moving the heavy arcade machine down, Li Yian said to Lautrey:
"Children, you have raised them well."
"That's because they are very sensible."
Lautrey said, looking at the children outside the car.
"Do you think he can get investment?"
Faced with Lautrey's question, Li Yi'an replied.
"If the people who host them have a discerning mind, they will definitely understand the potential of video game consoles."
Many times, when investment funds make investment decisions, they often rely on the manager's vision.
Because of this, whether they can get investment depends on whether the manager understands the product.
Having said that, Li Yi'an set his sights on the "Growth Ladder Fund", an official investment fund established under his instruction. Its purpose was not just to increase the investment channels of the National Annuity. The original intention of establishing it was to help young people Start a business.
Because only by starting a business can we make more wealth, and only by continuously making more wealth can everyone become rich. Although there are dozens of similar venture capital funds here, only this one is government-run, and it is also the only fund willing to invest in various fields. Even a dessert shop can get it. Investment, after all, was founded to help people start their own businesses.
When Song Mingxuan, Lu Bosi, and Liu Tao pushed the arcade machine into the Growth Ladder Fund Hall, everyone noticed the machine they pushed, and soon they saw the investment manager.
Listening to their introduction, He Huili said curiously:
"You mean, it's a game like Star Wars, right?"
Song Mingxuan replied: "Somewhat similar, sir, if you allow, you can try it too."
After plugging in the power, after waiting for a while, the arcade machine was turned on. Looking at the simple screen, He Huili asked:
"How do other people want to play? You can't just buy one and take it home."
"If it is officially put into production, there will be a coin slot, just like a public telephone. You only need to put in a few cents and you can play for a while."
Soon, under Song Mingxuan's introduction, He Huili learned how to play the game.
The game is not complicated. Players need to operate a space fighter that looks more like a turret, shoot at the moving enemies above at the bottom of the screen, and constantly avoid bullets fired by the enemy.
The array of enemy aircraft will take a step closer to your own bottom line every few seconds. If you are shot down three times or the enemy rushes into your own position at the bottom of the screen, the game will fail.
Due to the limitations of the processor and the performance of the arcade, players in the game can actually only move left and right and fire.
Although He Huili was not flying freely in space as he imagined, after simply playing for a while, he was shot down six or seven times in succession. However, he was shot down, and the more he wanted to play, he realized that, This product is definitely a product with great potential.
Finally, after the enemy broke through his defense line again, even though his defense was somewhat broken, he still had the urge to continue playing in his heart.
What is this impulse?
It’s the market!
Holding back her inner desire to continue playing, He Huili said:
"How much investment do you need?"
"This..."
All of a sudden, the three teenagers were confused. They had no idea how much money it would cost to produce this machine.
But He Huili quickly gave them a plan.
"In this way, the foundation solicited suggestions from people in relevant fields and came up with a specific investment plan. By the way, are your parents here? You are all minors. You need to seek parental consent to sign an investment contract."
The parents must be there, Lautrey has been waiting outside, waiting for news about his son.
As a guardian, she soon signed a contract with the Growth Ladder Fund. When she signed the contract, Li Yian watched silently from outside.
