Chapter 265 Showdown and Future Plans
"Mom, you heard me wrong. What I'm talking about is not called Internet porn, but Internet celebrity!"

A difference of one word can make a world of difference in status.

Yang Xiao was so scared that he quickly explained, "It means Internet celebrity. It means that many people on the Internet like my works. They are all my fans. It's a bit like those grassroots artists on "Star Avenue" who are sought after by everyone."

Liu Yuxia and Yang Jianguo nodded half-understandingly, and then asked:

"So you're talking about writing songs and novels and stuff? How much money did you make here in total?"

"Well, at the beginning, it was probably only about 300,000 or 400,000."

"Three or four hundred thousand!?"

Yang Jianguo and Liu Yuxia looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment.

So his son had been secretly making money without telling them during his senior year of high school, the most important year of his student life?

And it’s three or four hundred thousand?

Yang Jianguo gets up early and goes to bed late every day to install broadband for people, while Liu Yuxia stays in the store every day to sell mobile phones and handle business. Last year, they only earned about 200,000 to 300,000 yuan at most.

This is already considered a high income!
But now, from what Yang Xiao said, while he was in school, he used his free time to tinker on the Internet with these things they didn't understand, and he easily earned more than both of them?

At that moment, they felt that their work was in vain. Who were they working so hard for?
Isn’t it Yang Xiao?

The result? He actually started his own business!

Fortunately, Yang Xiao didn't tell the truth.

If I let it be known that I kept skipping classes, I would be scolded to death.

In this situation, you can only mix truth and lies together, and try to explain it from an angle that your parents can accept.

Otherwise they would be even more unable to accept it and would be afraid of getting scared to death.

Seeing that his parents were silent for a while, he just finished speaking:

"After I made money, I found someone to start a media company. The company slowly started to grow and make money. I then started several other types of companies. Coincidentally, almost all of them made money. Then it's like this now. Can you understand?"

Yang Jianguo and Liu Yuxia looked at each other again, and felt more and more that the situation was becoming uncontrollable.

This child started talking nonsense and treated the two of them as fools.

Liu Yuxia shouted, "How come writing novels and starting a company sound as easy as eating and drinking water to you?
Is opening a company just a matter of saying it? Why don't you see your mom? I'm opening a company too!

Your father and I work so hard to run this mobile phone store. We don't dare to rest for a moment. We are so exhausted for such a small business. How can you open a company with hundreds of employees just like that?"

Yang Xiao chuckled and said, "Mom, since you have a business license, you are almost like a company."

"Stop talking nonsense! Let's get down to business! Just tell me how this car came to be!"

Yang Jianguo hurriedly shouted, "Besides, this car parked in front of our store early this morning. Did it get home before you?"

How come you don't believe it even though I'm telling the truth?

Yang Xiao thought about it and didn't know how to explain it for a moment. If you put yourself in their shoes, these words really seemed far-fetched and no one would believe them.

It is really difficult to change a person's inherent cognition.

Fortunately, he appeared on the stage of Weibo Night yesterday, with media evidence.

"Dad, Mom, don't disbelieve me. Just look at this and you'll know."

Yang Xiao opened the browser on the computer that his father's friend bought at a "friendly price" and found his related videos.

In the video, Yang Xiao was wearing a suit and chatting with Xie Na.

"Hey, isn't this the celebrity? I think her name is Nana?"

Thank God, thanks to Xie Na!

Yang Jianguo didn't know any of the people above, but his mother had some impression of them.

Because there is a TV in their store for customers to watch, Liu Yuxia usually plays with her phone and watches TV in the store when she has nothing to do.

Even if she forgot Xie Na's name, she knew she was a star.

Then, Yang Xiao in the video talked about the [Train Parkour] game that his [Yinhan Technology] will soon launch, as well as the giveaway of ten iPhone 4S!
Yang Jianguo and his wife also watched in silence, and finally looked at each other in silence.

Yang Xiao saw the expressions of the two elders and knew that they were still digesting these things, so he added:

"Dad, Mom, I really am starting a company. By the way, let me tell you something you should know. I think you have heard of the software called WIFI Master Key, right?"

Hearing this, Liu Yuxia said unhappily: "I know, what's wrong?"

“I made this software.”

"What? You did that?"

Liu Yuxia didn't know why her son asked this at first, but now she was even more shocked when she heard the answer!
When it comes to this software, she has a love-hate relationship with it.

"Love" is because sometimes when she sells smart phones to customers, since some models do not come with the software at the factory, she will take the initiative to help users install and download this thing, calling it "free Internet access."

What they hate is that on weekends, a bunch of middle and high school students often stay near their store just to "steal" their store's WIFI!

Right now their broadband speed is only 10 Mbps, how can it handle so many mobile phones connected?
The internet in their store is often extremely slow, and it takes a long time to load a video. They are also the ones who have been "stolen".

In fact, this incident also indirectly shows that the marketing strategy of WIFI Master Key is undoubtedly successful, and it has gradually become a national-level software.

At this time, although they didn't know all of Yang Xiao's background, Liu Yuxia and Yang Jianguo were so shocked that they were speechless.

But no matter what, they have no reason to question anything now.

With celebrities endorsing it, how could you not believe it?
Even after hearing about the game company and the WIFI Master Key, they had a general understanding of it.

That is

——My son has opened more than one company, and none of them are small companies.

Then, Liu Yuxia asked a more straightforward question.

"Son, how much money do you have now?"

"Well, after buying the car, there is still about 2000 million in the card."

Yang Xiao answered every question and added, "I know what else you want to ask. If you want to know how much the company is worth, the total amount should be around 30 billion or more."

"2000 million. 30 billion."

Liu Yuxia was stunned for a long time and looked at Yang Jianguo, "Old Yang, pinch me, am I dreaming?"

Yang Jianguo was also stunned for a moment, and after a long time he came to his senses, and then pinched Liu Yuxia's forearm as he was told.

Liu Yuxia murmured, "Why doesn't it hurt? Am I really dreaming?"

"Mom, you are wearing too many clothes, a sweater, and a thick cotton coat on top."

"It's not a dream, it's not a dream. I am conscious."

What Liu Yuxia said just now was just talk. She just couldn't believe these numbers.

Again, in front of the couple, Yang Xiao is just two words - stranger!
Last night, Liu Yuxia was afraid that Yang Xiao would not come home, and she was threatening to cut off Yang Xiao's 1500 yuan a month living expenses.

Today I found out that Yang Xiao still has 20 million in his card?

It’s not 2,000 yuan, it’s 20 million!

Isn't this black humor?

Yang Xiao smiled and asked first: "Mom, you are not going to let me give you this money, are you? I can't do that. I have several companies under my control and hundreds of employees. They all rely on me to pay their salaries, and I have to continue to invest money in them."

Liu Yuxia looked annoyed at this time: "No, no, how dare I ask Boss Yang or Mr. Yang to give me money? I guess they don't even look at the 1500 yuan living expenses every month."

"No matter if I'm your boss or some other CEO, I'm still your son."

Hearing his mother's sarcastic words, Yang Xiao immediately changed into an obedient look and said with a smile, "How about this, Mom? I'll have someone transfer two million to you tomorrow, as a New Year's red envelope for you and my dad this year. How do you think?"

"Your mother and I have money to spend, just keep it for yourself!"

Yang Jianguo, who had been silent, spoke at this time.

When it comes to major issues, Dad, as the backbone of the family, is much more sensible. He knows that this is not as simple as "a poor man suddenly getting rich". The operation of a company with hundreds of employees cannot be separated from Yang Xiao.

How could he treat him like a child and say something like he would help him "keep" his money? Instead, he said earnestly:

"Your mother and I don't understand what you are doing now, such as making software and starting a company, and we can't help you. You don't need to give us money.

If you really want to give it to us, we will keep it for you as a fallback in the future.

On the contrary, now that you have built such a big business, are there any problems in running it?"

Liu Yuxia didn't say anything and didn't refute anything, obviously agreeing with what her husband Yang Jianguo said.

What their son is doing now is beyond their current knowledge and ability. Even if they want to help, they can't!

After listening to this, Yang Xiao felt relieved and moved.

His parents are always the ones who care about him the most and worry about him the most.

The couple is not worried that he will earn too much money to spend, but is worried that he will fall into the abyss of failure at such a young age.

But if that day really comes, the couple will unconditionally support Yang Xiao even if they have to sell everything they have, because he is their only son.

In the current situation, Yang Xiao is too "promising". In fact, compared with other ordinary college students, this situation is not what they want to see.

There are too many things they need to worry about.

After all, can a young man under 20 years old like him really run such a big business?

Will the company's employees listen to their son?
Is someone plotting against him, deceiving him?
"Dad, Mom, don't worry. Your son is very smart. The company is developing healthily and there won't be any risks."

Yang Xiao naturally knew that his parents were worried, which was inevitable. Although nothing in the world is absolute, Yang Xiao still said nice words to comfort them.

Now that the showdown is finally over, Yang Xiao feels relieved.

Although this showdown method is somewhat "all-at-once", in Yang Xiao's opinion, it is better than the "toothpaste squeezing" method bit by bit.

At least it can help parents worry less about troubles in the middle and avoid excessive intervention in the early stages.

Then, Yang Jianguo and the other man spent almost half an hour questioning Yang Xiao about some details such as "how many employees are there" and "what industries are there".

But both of them only had a vague understanding of the question and were only asking for something new and curious.

Instead, when he heard that Yang Xiao managed everything in an orderly manner, he felt the growth of his own son.

Finally, Yang Xiao couldn't help but ask, "Mom, it's almost seven o'clock, when are we going to eat?"

"Oh no, I forgot about this. You've been flying and riding in a car all day today. You must be tired." Liu Yuxia cried out and got up in a hurry.

"My dad has been driving all day today. Thank you for your hard work." Yang Xiao said.

Liu Yuxia urged, "Come on, come on, I've bought the food in advance, let's close the store and go back upstairs to eat."

Yang Jianguo walked to the back and pulled down the rolling door with a "bang".

He suddenly slapped his forehead and remembered something: "Hey, let me tell you, guess what I saw when I picked him up today."

"If you have to fart, just fart." Liu Yuxia asked in the way she was best at.

"Your son has found a daughter-in-law for you!" Yang Jianguo said with a smile without getting angry.

"What?! Where is this girl from?"

Liu Yuxia was shocked again and started to check the household registration:

"What is your name?"

"Is he good-looking?

"What do parents do?"

"Which school do you go to?"

He found that he had lost his say in his son's career.

But now when it comes to her son's lifelong event, she feels that she has the final say again, and she must get to the bottom of this matter!

Yang Jianguo answered all the questions with a smile, and even sorted out the relationships in Huicheng.

"My goodness, this girl's mother is your old classmate? What a coincidence. Isn't she pretty? Are you thinking about her?"

Yang Jianguo was not someone who would be easily fooled, so he said with a straight face, "What nonsense! She might even be my mother-in-law in the future!"

Suddenly, the last question Liu Yuxia asked just now reminded him of something.

"By the way, where did your son go to college?"

"Yang Jianguo, are you getting senile? How can you be a father like that? You don't even know where your son is studying at university? Shenzhen City University!"

Liu Yuxia groaned, frowned, and walked down the stairs, mumbling and complaining. Yang Jianguo knew he was in the wrong, so he just glanced at Yang Xiao unkindly, and saw that the latter was still gloating:

"Good boy, you fooled your father like this! You deserve to be punished!"

After arriving home, Yang Jianguo and Liu Yuxia rushed to the kitchen, busying themselves while talking about their son.

Even at the dinner table afterwards, he would ask whatever he wanted to ask, both on career and personal issues, until he got to the bottom of everything.

After dinner, Yang Jianguo called Yang Xiao downstairs, saying that he was going out for a walk.

"Give me your car keys."

"Dad, go slower. By the way, the way to ignite the car may be different from your Wuling Hongguang." Yang Xiao did as he was told and threw it to him with a smile.

"Haven't I ever eaten pork, or seen a pig run?"

Yang Jianguo rolled his eyes at him and took the key calmly, but the occasional swear words that came out of his mouth still revealed his inner excitement.
"Just let me drive it for two days to experience it. Then you can drive it back by yourself. It's a waste of this car for me to drive."

"No, Dad. I'm too lazy to drive back. Besides, this car is too conspicuous parked in the school. I can just change it to a more ordinary one when the time comes."

"That's true. How can such a luxury car be driven in school often? I'm afraid that the teachers in your school don't dare to drive it. After all, it has a bad influence."

In the end, Yang Xiao did not sit in the passenger seat, but let Yang Jianguo drive out alone. He did not need to question his father's driving skills.

On the other hand, Yang Jianguo still seemed a little flustered about some of the air conditioning, defogger and other buttons on the car's central control.

After debugging for a while, he finally figured it out.

Then he stepped on the accelerator and strolled out.

The air conditioner in the car was blowing hot air, but Yang Jianguo still rolled down the window.

It’s finally my turn to show off!
Along the way, many people looked at him in surprise. Due to the nature of his work, many people knew him and greeted him.

"Hey, isn't this Lao Yang? When did you change your car? Is this your work car?"

"Where did Lao Yang get rich?"

"Old Yang"

Yang Jianguo just tried to get by with a perfunctory response.

I can’t hide my son’s affairs from others. After all, his face is exposed and he is a public figure.

They were even considering moving to Lincheng at the dinner table.

In a flash, he drove from the city to the national highway in the suburbs.

Now he suddenly felt the wind outside the window was a little cold, so he "rolled up" the car window.

At this moment, he suddenly thought of his son's joking promise at that time.

"Dad, I advise you to get a driver's license as soon as possible, otherwise when your son buys you a Porsche in the future, you won't be able to drive it!"

In his eyes, this was something more illusory than a dream, but now it was realized so easily.

Perhaps it was because the air inside the car was too cold and the temperature outside was too cold, but Yang Jianguo's eyes were slightly moist at this moment.

Since this Porsche is a promise to his father, Yang Xiao naturally would not drive it back to Shenzhen.

No matter what is ostentatious or not.

Cars are always one of a man’s favorite toys, no matter how old he is.

What's more, this thing can provide emotional value to my dad, which is its greatest use.

At night.

Yang Jianguo and Liu Yuxia lay on the bed from ten o'clock and chatted until twelve o'clock. Neither of them felt sleepy at all and kept chatting about everything.

Liu Yuxia said, "My son told me to transfer 2 million to my account tomorrow. I will deposit it into a five-year fixed deposit."

"Okay." Yang Jianguo said.

"My son said he wanted to move to Lincheng. Is this really necessary?"

"What he said makes sense. We originally bought a house in Lincheng, and my eldest sister and her family are planning to move there. Now we are just waiting for my brother-in-law to retire in a year."

"But our business was doing well, and I still can't bear to lose it."

"How could it be lost? Didn't Yang Xiao make it very clear? Let your nephew Liu Xiaobing come back and let him do the business. I'll take care of him for a few months. It's better than him working outside. It can also be considered as an explanation to your mother's family, right?"

Liu Yuxia said, "Why should he worry about my mother's family?"

Yang Jianguo said slowly, "Don't be so slow. My son is more insightful than you. He is right. If you have money, who wouldn't come to borrow money? This is the truth. It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish."

"Oh, my son has really changed a lot now. He has really matured and is more sensible than us."

Liu Yuxia actually knew the key point. She just said it stubbornly and did not refute it this time.

"Yes, he is very thoughtful in considering all aspects. This is good. We are relieved."

The couple also knew that their son's usual talkative nature was just a deliberate attempt to amuse others.

When it comes to really analyzing specific matters, it is well-reasoned and logical.

For example, Yang Xiao’s suggestion was to call back his cousin who was working in Dongguan City.

Let his father teach him the technology of "installing broadband", and also transfer to him the business of "business agency for telecommunications companies" and "selling mobile phones", etc., and turn it into a husband-and-wife shop for long-term operation.

The transfer price can be a symbolic 100,000 yuan.

He could even wait until he takes over completely and makes money and then pay it back in installments.

It’s like giving it away for free!

The three of them went to Lincheng, where they had just bought a house.

As for doing business after arriving in Lincheng, he would follow Yang Xiao's suggestion and build a large "chain mobile phone hypermarket" to allow all major mobile phone brands to move in.

You can even bring your aunt and her family in to do it together.

They all have experience in mobile phone sales.

Plus, the next few years will be the peak period for smartphone shipments, so there’s no need to worry about not making money!
Moreover, Yang Xiao also knew many mobile phone manufacturer partners when he was doing factory-installed marketing for WIFI Master Key.

We can also provide some help in terms of supply. At the very least, there may be room for negotiation on price.

In fact, with Yang Xiao’s current wealth, he can completely let the old couple not have to work, and just rest and play.

But my parents are still young and strong, and they can't sit idle.

In Yang Xiao's opinion, this business is not that big, but it is not a small retail business either. It costs several million and is just right for them.

It's good to let the two elders to do what they want to pass the time, Yang Jianguo and Liu Yuxia also expressed their agreement.

In another decade or so, when the development of smartphones reaches a bottleneck and there is not much profit, it will be almost time for them to retire.

"Oh, I almost forgot one thing."

In the darkness, Yang Jianguo climbed out of bed wearing long johns.

With a "click", he turned on the light, took his pants and pulled out a note.

"Here, this is the meal we're going to take our son and your future daughter-in-law to today to support him. It's the same restaurant where Old Chen's son got married last time. Report it to me tomorrow."

"Wow! You spent 1590 on a meal. Where did you get so much money? Old Yang, you are not hiding some private money from me, are you?"

"Don't mention it. I just called to borrow this money."

Yang Jianguo added, "I also gave a red envelope of 2000 yuan to the girl named Luo Yao, and I also reported it to her."

Although Yang Xiao had anticipated that his father would report false accounts, he did not expect him to be so ruthless. This was directly making up for the deficit in his daily life!
"2000? Why are you pretending to be so high and mighty? Giving out so much?"

Liu Yuxia frowned, "Besides, what do you mean by my daughter-in-law? Isn't she also your daughter-in-law? I won't pay for this money! Find a way to solve it yourself. I'm going to sleep!"

Yang Jianguo felt nervous when he saw his wife being so arrogant and unreasonable.

If this money is lost, it will be a huge loss!
"Wife, listen to me. I had to make a good show of myself for this girl. I was afraid that she would have a bad impression on our son. She is well-educated, has a good family background, and is pretty. How could she be interested in our son?"

"I won't listen!"

Then there was another "click" sound, and Liu Yuxia turned off the light, buried her head in the quilt, and ignored him.

Yang Jianguo was left in the dark bedroom, trembling and wailing:
"This really doesn't make sense!"

In the next few days, the truth about Yang Xiao’s identity continued to ferment.

Huicheng is a small county town, and the news started with Yang Xiao’s former classmates spreading it to their parents, and then acquaintances began to come to the door to verify it.

They treated Yang Xiao as a rare animal and came to watch him.

For this kind of situation, Yang Xiao just stayed at home and didn't go out.

However, my dad's mobile phone store downstairs was crowded with people, which made the family business booming.

Because many people come here just to establish personal relationships.

But chatting is not in vain, and trying to get close to someone seems a bit dry.

After they entered the door, although they couldn't see the real person, they at least met the real person's parents.

Some people simply can't save their face and just buy a mobile phone.

Or you can change your mobile phone card, get broadband or something like that, or at the very least, you have to top up your phone bill!
After all, the business his family is involved in is quite extensive.

However, Yang Jianguo and Liu Yuxia no longer have the initial joy of making money. They are just happy to see that their son has such a wide reputation.

They have already decided on Yang Xiao's plan to move to Lincheng, and have even discussed many details with their aunt's family over the phone.

By the way, my aunt’s family moved to Lincheng a few months ago and officially settled there.

It is expected that within half a year, the two of them will be able to completely handle the business in Huicheng.

Yang Xiao's cousin Liu Xiaobing also quit his job at the factory and hurried back with his wife.

Anyway, this is the initial plan.

The fastest way was to bring out Liu Xiaobing, the "apprentice", and let the couple take over the business, which was simply feeding them food.

But whether Liu Xiaobing can eat this meal is still unknown.

The next period of time that Yang Jianguo will be "training an apprentice" will also be an opportunity for him to observe and test the apprentice's character, personality, and mentality.

If you fail the test.

I'm sorry, no matter how close Liu Yuxia is to them, she won't let him waste this business for nothing.

As for Yang Xiao, he didn't stay in Huicheng for long. After less than a week, he returned to Lincheng alone.

During these few days, Yang Xiao took some time out to meet with several familiar classmates and friends from high school, including Zhou Hongyu, Li Yuanbao, Zhang Wanting and others.

In addition, he also took time to visit some teachers who had cared about him through QQ and text messages.

For example, his former high school class teacher Chen Guangping, and some subject teachers who cared about him at that time.

The former is also very abstract.

If the school was not approaching the end of the semester and preparing for exams, he would have specially consulted the principal and planned to invite Yang Xiao to give a speech to his juniors.
Then ask Yang Xiao if he will still be there when school starts. If he is, then give the speech on the first day of school.

Yang Xiao quickly declined and slipped away.

Many things have gradually changed due to the change in his current identity and relationships.

For example, when getting along with some people again, everyone seems to have a barrier between them, everything becomes a little restrained, and there is no longer the ease and casualness as before.

This was actually within Yang Xiao's expectations.

In fact, you will only have a deeper experience of these changes in human relationships and social situations after you graduate from college and truly enter society.

But because Yang Xiao had set an example, many of his classmates experienced the feeling of "class change" prematurely.

It can be said that there are both good and bad sides.

However, in this life, many people are just passers-by. You don’t even need too many close friends. Two or three are enough.

Fortunately, Li Yuanbao and Zhou Hongyu have been following Yang Xiao's steps closely.

Neither of them noticed any change.

If you have to say something.

They can be roughly described in four words.
——Rely on your father with all your strength.
