Chapter 1102: Chapter 473: Freshman Orientation Season (Part 2)

After a year of hard work, Zhou Yuwen’s Xu Huai Association has basically spread across all universities in Jinling, so his phone card business has naturally reached a monopolistic level.

However, monopoly is one thing, the business model of phone cards remains unchanged. Basically, tasks are allocated to them, and they manage on their own. How much they earn depends on their ability, Zhou Yuwen only takes a small share of the profit.

Even so, a school season can still bring Zhou Yuwen three to four million in passive income.

As for Jinling University, plus his own college area, Zhou Yuwen assigned this work to Li Shiqi.

Of course, this is something Zhou Yuwen secured for himself.

These past few months have been so busy that Zhou Yuwen had long forgotten this high school classmate.

Li Shiqi, however, never forgot Zhou Yuwen and often saw news about him.

She remembers when Zhou Yuwen wasn’t so famous, she would occasionally chat with him.

Just like during holidays and festivals.

For example, during the Winter Solstice, she’d send a message telling Zhou Yuwen to remember to eat dumplings.

Then during the Lantern Festival, she would also ask Zhou Yuwen whether he had eaten tangyuan.

Back then, Zhou Yuwen would reply with a “thank you.”

But after Zhou Yuwen became famous, the times Li Shiqi contacted him became rarer.

After all, the gap between them was too big, Zhou Yuwen’s wealth had surpassed three billion, while Li Shiqi was still the burden-dragged daughter who couldn’t even get a seat at the family dinner table.

Driven by pride, Li Shiqi really didn’t have the courage to seek out Zhou Yuwen again.

Until just before the school term started, she saw people in the freshman group talking about making money by getting campus cards.

Last semester, even though Li Shiqi had been working part-time as a tutor, her tuition for the year was over ten thousand, and she was still living on the breadline.

After hesitating for a moment, the long silent Li Shiqi finally sent Zhou Yuwen a message: “Are you there?”

At that time, Zhou Yuwen was on his way back to Jinling.

Seeing the message from Li Shiqi, he paused for a moment.

After slightly hesitating, he replied: “Yes,”

“How have you been recently?” Li Shiqi asked.

“Alright, just got back from the United States. How about you? You should be starting school, right?” Zhou Yuwen asked.

Li Shiqi responded with a nod.

There was silence afterward, and Zhou Yuwen felt that Li Shiqi must have something to ask him, so he took the initiative to ask.

As a result, there was hesitation on the other side for a while before she said: “Are you still doing the phone card business?”

After saying this, as if gathering courage, Li Shiqi went on to explain that now school’s starting and she wanted to do the phone card business but didn’t know whom to ask.

If Zhou Yuwen knew, could he teach her?

“Even if you don’t know, it’s okay…”

After saying all this, Li Shiqi added.

Because it always felt like saying these things made herself seem very opportunistic, as if she wanted to snatch Zhou Yuwen’s business.

Zhou Yuwen, looking at the message from Li Shiqi on his phone, raised his head and asked Liu Shuo who was in charge of the phone card business now.

“Oh, I handed this over to Gao Yang, what’s up, bro?”

Zhou Yuwen said that Li Shiqi wants to do the phone card business with him.

“I’m thinking of assigning her area of the school to her, go and tell Gao Yang about it.”

“This little thing, bro, I’ll get Gao Yang to contact her right away.” Liu Shuo quickly agreed, because for them, phone card business these days was just something they did on the side. Not only phone cards, but Zhou Yuwen’s crew has now monopolized all the labor in University Town and the QR code ground promotion work, bringing in millions every month.

This money really feels like it’s growing legs and running automatically into Zhou Yuwen’s wallet day after day.

Even the younger members mixing with Zhou Yuwen were living luxuriously.

Liu Shuo went to make arrangements, while Zhou Yuwen called Li Shiqi.

Originally, Zhou Yuwen hadn’t replied to her messages for a long time, making Li Shiqi think that it was surely going cold.

This young girl inevitably felt anxious and insecure.

Thinking she was somewhat rude, after not contacting Zhou Yuwen for so long, suddenly asking him to introduce business felt too materialistic.

But what else could she do?

The more she thought about her heartaches, Li Shiqi thought she shouldn’t have reached out to Zhou Yuwen.

Before she figured it out, Zhou Yuwen called her.

Li Shiqi, a little flustered, quickly answered the call: “Hello,”

“Shiqi,”

Nowadays, Zhou Yuwen spoke with a bit of a senior official style, he said the campus card business in University Town was still under his management.

“But we now use a distribution model, we can give you the agency rights on the south side.”

Li Shiqi couldn’t help but feel delighted upon hearing this, but she then added: “Isn’t that a bit too much trouble…”

Zhou Yuwen said it wasn’t troublesome, that’s how they were working, finding an agent for each school, and there isn’t an agent allocated for her side yet.

“Moreover, we’re using a company management system now, and we look at each agent’s sales numbers. If you work seriously and do well, there will be other rewards.”

Li Shiqi was even happier upon hearing this: “Thank you, Zhou Yuwen!”

Zhou Yuwen said: “What’s courteous between us? Just do well, and when you earn money, remember to treat me to a meal.”

Speaking of meals, Li Shiqi’s face turned red, she said she wanted to treat him last year, but it never worked out.

Zhou Yuwen said this year they must find a time for a meal.

“I’m soon going back to school.”

“You’re back in Jinling?”

“Yes.”

Being able to chat on the phone with Zhou Yuwen, Li Shiqi was noticeably happier.

Unfortunately, happy moments are always short-lived; after a brief chat, Zhou Yuwen said he had to hang up.

Li Shiqi could only helplessly reply “Mhm”.

When Zhou Yuwen returned to campus, the first thing he noticed was the banners everywhere selling phone cards, and the distribution even reaching different tiers, with some freshmen also getting into the phone card business.

It’s inevitable that their dorm night talks would touch upon Zhou Yuwen.

Talking about how, a year ago, Zhou Yuwen made tens of thousands selling phone cards, then could go to New York for stock trading!

Not just the phone card business, but further in the campus, you could also see Xianlin Media Culture Co., Ltd recruiting artists, which meant arranging them for car model roles, ceremonial duties, and other part-time jobs, with jobs being easy and a day earning around three to four hundred, even up to six or seven hundred.

Security concerns naturally need not be worried.

Because it’s Zhou Yuwen’s company.

Do you know Zhou Yuwen? The one writing novels, running companies, his food delivery business has sold for tens of millions, under him, there’s not only a media company but also a security company, Zhou Yuwen will assign special personnel for your protection, you won’t be harmed, of course, if something consensual happens, that’s beyond our control.

This year’s university freshmen, the one person they cannot avoid is likely Zhou Yuwen, whether male or female, as long as they’re studying in Jinling, they inevitably mention Zhou Yuwen.

Boys chatting at night talking about how spectacular Zhou Yuwen is.

Even bringing up the topic of Xu Huai Association.

How Xu Huai Association is mind-blowingly awesome, then saying Zhou Yuwen is the secret boss behind Xu Huai Association.

This is when someone expresses that’s not cool anymore?

Then there’s a know-it-all saying, hey, without being uncool, how could Zhou Yuwen make his business so big, doing business requires ruthlessness!

Among the boys, there are definitely those who worship Zhou Yuwen.

And in the girls’ dormitories, the topic of Zhou Yuwen is unavoidable.

Aside from Zhou Yuwen’s handsome looks, he reportedly has a wealth over three billion, and then during these days in school, no matter where or when, you can hear rumors about Zhou Yuwen, inevitably sparking girls’ curiosity about him.

Among freshmen, the prettiest girl is Yin Songyue.

With a dance background, not only is she sweet-looking, but she also has a tall figure.

During military training, she danced to her self-choreographed “Nobody,” making many people call her the number one campus beauty, attracting a lot of boys’ attention, including rich second-generation and intellectual handsome guys.

But so far, Yin Songyue hasn’t accepted any boy’s invitation.

At this point, a roommate asked Yin Songyue what kind of boy she was looking for?

Yin Songyue gave a slight smile and said: “I want to find a boy who can conquer me!”
