Forced to Date a Big Shot Chapter 597

Chapter 597 - I'm Rich

When students did projects with the teachers, they would be given some remuneration for their labor. Most of them were given 1,500 yuan a month. For high-level projects like the light source machine, the top students would have to be given three to four thousand yuan each.

As for this Light Source Machine project, they had to recruit at least a few hundred people. They also had to split up the work for them. Everyone had to have a subsidy. Even if it was a little less for each, it would still cost nearly a million.

The moment he said this, the person passing by said, “I don’t need any allowance.”

“Me too!”

“Me too! We just need to participate in the project!”

“Yes, I can just participate too!”

“…”

Li Xuekai looked at Zheng Zhi and did not speak. However, the smile on his face clearly said, “Do you see that? This is charisma.”

Zheng Zhi clenched his jaw and snorted again. “Even if you don’t want financial support, what about the cost of the equipment? Will other companies provide it to you for free?”

Li Xuekai did not speak.

In the early stages, all kinds of resources could be borrowed from the school. The school could also provide some basic equipment, but what about high-end equipment?

A testing machine imported from overseas cost 200,000 USD, equivalent to a million yuan.

These things were essential for scientific research.

Hence, if the light source machine project could not be completed in the end, it would not only waste manpower but also money!

Beside her, Director Liu was smiling and saying, “Sister Xi, we have enough people now. Is there anything else that’s not enough?”

Xue Xi: “…I don’t have enough money.”

Old Liu: “…”

Feng Xingshen immediately said, “Sister Xi, use the 500,000 yuan first. If it’s not enough, I’ll give you more. There are also all kinds of equipment needed. If you need anything, make a list and we’ll borrow it from the school for you. However, if you want to continue this project, I’m afraid the three of us won’t have enough money. I’ll go help you get investments from society! With the three of us, it’ll definitely be simple!”

Director Liu, Director Feng, and Director Chen could set up a project if any of them were to take it out. Most of them would be given money for research and development.

After all, the investor would become the project’s shareholder in the future.

Director Chen also nodded. “Yes, don’t worry. The three of us will definitely give you a lot of shares.”

Shares?

Xue Xi paused.

She suddenly realized that if there were outsiders investing, this project would have to be considered someone else’s shared property.

Xue Xi immediately said, “No need. I have money.”

She wanted to invest in herself!

Anyway, there was no place to spend the few hundred million inside her bank card.

The three directors looked at each other.

Sister Xi is rich?

Sister Xi’s money was probably the living allowance her family gave her. It was at most a few hundred thousand yuan or a million yuan. It should not be much. After all, Sister Xi looked very low-profile and would not spend money to buy things.

Feng Xingshen could not help but advise, “Sister Xi, your research and development will not be settled in a short period of one or two months. The timeline will definitely be extended. Your money is insufficient. You’d better listen to me…”

Xue Xi thought about it.

Xiang Huai had bought a mine that cost 200 billion yuan. Her few hundred million yuan was indeed nothing. Hence, she nodded. “I’ll look for you when I’ve spent all of my money.”

Feng Xingshen: “…Alright!”

Zheng Zhi, who had been listening attentively, sneered when he heard this. “You have money? What can you do with that bit of money?”

He suddenly thought of something and said, “Don’t tell me you’re planning to borrow money from… your older boyfriend?”

Before Zheng Zhi arrived, he had already been warned by Jing Fei.

Sister Xi did not know about Boss’s identity and he almost let it slip.

Pui.

What Sister Xi? I’ve been infected by this group of people. Isn’t she just a 19-year-old girl? What Sister Xi…

Just as he was thinking this, he saw Xue Xi’s expression turn serious. She explained, “My boyfriend is only 25 years old. He’s not old.”

Xue Xi could call Xiang Huai Elder, but others could not.

Zheng Zhi: “…”

Beside them, Feng Xingshen and the rest could only take a step back when they heard Xue Xi’s words. Seeing that everyone was quickly gathered, the three of them suddenly felt that they had a lot to spare. Hence, the three of them discussed and decided to leave first.

After leaving the third floor, the three of them walked back to the office building. Feng Xingshen said, “Sister Xi wants to save face and might be too embarrassed to ask for money. We have to keep an eye on her. She has just established a new project, and things are most ruthless in the early stages. If she doesn’t have money, we have to help her immediately.”

The other two nodded.

Yu Da was very efficient. Coupled with the fact that the resources of the Everyday Operations Club were not to be discounted, they knew the students from Huazhong University and Huaxia University very well because they had accepted various assignments.

Fang Fang, Bottle, Water, and Flight helped him filter out a few people with bad intentions. In the end, more than 200 people were chosen.

Xue Xi did not like managing, so she passed the management to Zheng Zhi.

The person recommended by the teacher was indeed useful.

Zheng Zhi quickly understood these people’s strengths and assigned them to groups. Soon, they were divided into groups.

By four in the afternoon, the entire R & D department had been established.

Li Xuekai led the math department and helped them to build models and other basic applications. The people in the math department did not have to come to the laboratory every day to report and complete their algorithm tasks.

The software department was led by Commander Da.

In addition, the hardware department, physics department, chemistry department, and other departments all found their most professional and authoritative personnel.

After the groups were divided, Xue Xi distributed the tasks related to the light source that she had been reading over the past few days. She distributed them to the various team leaders and let them distribute the tasks.

With an experienced person like Zheng Zhi around, the originally messy project department only took one day to divide the work perfectly.

After Xue Xi sent them, everyone dispersed.

Those people from Huazhong University only needed to come over every weekend and spend the rest of their time doing research in their own school.

6 PM.

Almost everyone had left, and there were only a few management staff left in the room.

Just as Zheng Zhi was looking at the machine that was about to be purchased, Xue Xi turned around and saw a person standing at the door.

She walked out and realized that the person standing there was actually He Gao.

Xue Xi’s eyes lit up. “Little… He Gao, why are you here?”

He Gao’s black eyes were deep. He scratched his head in frustration. “If I had known earlier, I would have learned physics or computers!”

When he saw the hiring notice, he wanted to come.

However, he suddenly realized that he was only from the sports department. Back then, in order to participate in the college entrance examination, he had studied hard. After entering university, he was no longer in a mood to study.

What can I help Sister Xi with?

Looking at the endless stream of people, He Gao—or rather, Gao Yanchen—felt an unbearable itch in his heart and was filled with regret.

Why can’t I help Sister Xi?

Just as he was frowning, Xue Xi said, “You’re willing to help? That’s great. I happen to be lacking a leader for the procurement department.”

Her project was different from others.

It required many kinds of equipment that the school did not have.

If she was born into an ordinary family, she would definitely pay a higher price for the equipment, but she wanted to guarantee quality.

Little Flame came from a wealthy family and spent money like water. He was least afraid of spending money. Moreover, although Grandpa Gao did not teach him anything else, Gao Yanchen was influenced by him and knew how to do business.

It was perfect for him to join the procurement department!

He Gao’s eyes lit up. “No problem! Sister Xi, are you short of money? I have…”

Xue Xi: “No.”

Little Flame was currently He Gao, and she did not know if he had enough money. She could not spend Little Flame’s money.

When He Gao nodded, Zheng Zhi’s mocking voice was heard. “Not lacking? Heh, did you even look at the bill?”

He frowned as he looked at the table in his hands of the instruments that needed to be purchased. “Let’s not talk about the rest. Just these few are already worth millions! Fortunately, these few instruments are available in other schools. We can borrow them, but it’s not always convenient to use them. So, take a look. How can we arrange the schedule properly? They can’t possibly lend them to us for half a year or even an entire year!”

Xue Xi: “…Then buy them.”

Zheng Zhi: “?”

He looked at Xue Xi as though she was a fool. Just as he was about to speak, he saw He Gao take the form in his hand. “Sure. If you want to buy these, buy the ones with the highest precision.”

“Mhm.” Xue Xi nodded. “Then consider them at their selling price.”

He Gao: “Okay.”

Zheng Zhi: “?”

He said impatiently, “Do you understand what I’m saying? I said, we don’t have enough money.”

“Oh.” Xue Xi then took out the bank card from her bag. “Use this.”

Zheng Zhi: “?”

He looked at the private card and could not help but laugh. “Fine, I’ll take a look at how much money you have inside this card! Can it contain tens of millions?!”

“…”
