Chapter 137: Xie Dahuo returned empty-handed, Taoist Chen gives you a hexagram.
Chen An put down his teacup and said calmly, "Xiaochun came to me yesterday, but I clearly rejected her. The reason I'm sitting here is mainly because I'm curious about what you, a top student from Peking University and a former angel investor, can say differently..."
Xie Zhiyao smiled, but did not directly talk about the investment. Instead, he tried to find out the truth first, pretending to be curious and said, "I was quite surprised when I heard Master Ma said that he wanted to work in the self-media industry. After asking, I found out that it was Brother Chen's suggestion. Does Brother Chen have any research in this area?"
"It's not really research. I was just watching live broadcasts and was a bit bored of seeing all the girls with long legs. I thought that Ma Ye's style is quite unique and should be very popular," Chen An said seriously.
Chen An's words really shocked Xie Zhiyao. Xie Zhiyao almost spit out the tea he had just drunk. He hurriedly wiped his mouth, forced a smile, and said, "Brother Chen, you are really humorous and funny."
Chen An just picked up the tea and took a sip without saying anything. He just wanted to watch Xie Zhiyao's performance today.
Seeing Chen An's expression, Xie Zhiyao had to speak again, "Brother Chen, to be honest, Master Ma and I are old acquaintances. He had many business plans before, but they were all castles in the air, invisible and intangible. However, the development prospects of the self-media industry are very huge. It can be seen that Brother Chen's vision is indeed very good."
Chen An is not interested in men. It would be better to waste time on promoting the relationship with Damai. "Mr. Xie, although your way of praising people is unique, it is better for us to talk about something real. I think if you don't have some color, you won't come to me again after Xiaochun hit a wall."
"Brother Chen, what do you think of the wood carving workshop?" Xie Zhiyao said and looked at Chen An's reaction.
After hearing what Xie Zhiyao said, Chen An was somewhat surprised. He glanced at Xie Zhiyao calmly and said, "It seems that Mr. Xie really doesn't fight a battle without confidence. The woodcarving workshop does have a good future. There is a continent-level intangible cultural heritage inheritor in charge. Although it seems that there is a lack of talent now, as the saying goes, money gathers people. There are unique conditions here, so it is not difficult to develop."
"Brother Chen is indeed very insightful. My uncle is a bit rigid and conservative, but that doesn't mean he doesn't know how to adapt. If I can convince him, would Brother Chen be interested in investing in a woodcarving workshop?"
Chen An was somewhat tempted by this proposal. After all, even without his interference, the wood carving workshop would soon have a large order of one or two million. If he invested now, it would basically be like picking up a ready-made thing and making some profits in advance.
But in this case, the risks are obvious. Nan Nan can't come now, but she will definitely come in about a month at most. What should I do then?
"Boss Xie, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you."
Xie Zhiyao's expression froze, and he looked at Chen An in confusion and asked, "If you have any concerns, you might as well tell me. I am actually very optimistic about the woodcarving workshop, but you know, I have such a big business, and I really don't have the energy to do it."
Chen An spread his hands and explained, "The woodcarving workshop has great potential in terms of cultural potential, collection value, and customized services in conjunction with the development of the tourism industry."
"But the disadvantages are also very obvious. The return on investment is slow and the risks are not small. After all, the most difficult thing to control in this world is the human heart. Isn't Master Xie's son also doing wood carving? The father and son have different ideas. What ability do I have to make them share the same ideas as me?"
"People can share adversity, but not wealth. I can't convince myself to put my wife's life on the trustworthiness of others. This is irresponsible to myself."
Xie Zhiyao was a little embarrassed. He really didn't expect that Chen An, a resident who had just arrived a week, knew so much about the village affairs. Only Xiaochun knew about this matter. Nana and Ma Ye definitely didn't know about it. Xiaochun shouldn't be the one who gossiped about other things. Could it be Xia Xia?
"Brother Chen, my uncle is an experienced craftsman. You don't have to worry too much about his reputation. And if we cooperate with him through e-commerce, there won't be so many troubles."
Seeing that Xie Zhiyao had not given up, Chen An asked calmly, "Mr. Xie, according to what you said, how should I establish a brand? What is the core of this brand? Isn't it the inheritor?"
After hearing what Chen An said, Xie Zhiyao knew that there was no hope, so he had to change his mindset and asked, "Brother Chen, there are actually many undeveloped projects in the village. You can consider it."
Chen An waved his hand and smiled, "Boss Xie, I admire you personally. You are willing to give up your job in the big city and return to your hometown to lead the villagers to start a business. You have also made a lot of efforts for this. But Boss Xie, here we have your life, your family, and your memories."
"I am different. I will not stay here. I am destined to be just a passer-by."
Xie Zhiyao sighed. Chen An's words couldn't be clearer. Besides, he really didn't have any bargaining chips that could make him interested. "Brother Chen, you will definitely achieve something in the future. I hope we can have a chance to cooperate in the future."
Chen An picked up the tea and responded with a smile, "Haha, Mr. Xie, I'll take your good words. If we are destined to cooperate in the future, we can look forward to it."
Xie Zhiyao stood up to say goodbye. Chen An hesitated for a moment and congratulated him, "Mr. Xie, judging from your face, you will have great luck in the near future. There will definitely be good news coming."
Xie Zhiyao was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Chen An strangely, "Brother Chen can also tell fortunes?"
Chen An carefully looked at Xie Zhiyao again and said with a smile: "You have a basic understanding of the art of observing people..."
"Then I'll take advantage of Brother Chen's good words." Xie Zhiyao kept muttering in his heart, how come this guy is even more weird than Master Ma, but he still said a polite word and left.
