Chapter 2142: Chapter 2143: The First Wife Who Left with Nothing 62

Ah ah ah, Xie Zhen looked at Zhang Yu, who had a "money is no problem" expression, and sighed helplessly again, really not knowing what to say.

Lately, he’s been recruiting various talents, truly attracting a lot of people with high salaries and positions, but when it comes to Zhang Yu, he feels quite helpless.

No matter how he opens his mouth, that person won’t relent, truly frustrating him.

Originally, he discovered a capable person had resigned, thinking he finally had the chance to recruit someone from overseas investment banks, but it turned out this way. Xie Zhen sighed helplessly.

"You guys are still young."

"We’re almost in our forties; we need to consider ourselves more."

"I know Senior Brother, you don’t deceive people, and you’ll fulfill the promised conditions."

"But we’re really tired, whether it’s me or Xiao Na, we’ve worked very hard over the years, and even when we’re sick, we don’t dare take too long a rest."

Zhang Yu didn’t say that after she bore all the tension, divorced Lin Yu, and moved the family to Harbor City, she collapsed and had to stay home to recuperate for a long time. Even now, she needs to visit a Chinese medicine doctor every month for diagnosis and to adjust her prescriptions, getting acupuncture as necessary.

Doctors have said she didn’t know how to take care of her health when she was younger, so she has many problems now. It doesn’t seem serious at first glance, but hospital checks won’t reveal anything; only Chinese medicine can gradually help.

Zhang Yu already discussed with Feng Lina that when she moves here, she’ll also need to visit the old Chinese medicine doctor for a pulse check, because one must live well and healthily to be able to see those life expressions that can only induce helplessness.

"But it’s okay, we can’t work at your investment bank, but we can collaborate in another way, such as you hiring us as consultants for your company."

"As long as the service fee is paid, we’ll definitely provide excellent professional services." No problem, even though the recruitment didn’t succeed, collaboration is still possible.

Zhang Yu believes that as long as they cooperate with Xie Zhen’s investment bank, she really won’t have to worry about not having projects in the future.

Looking at Zhang Yang, who was watching him expectantly, Xie Zhen laughed, "I came to recruit people, but ended up..."

"This is not something I can decide." They are an investment bank, able to provide consulting services to clients. However, they immediately turn around wanting to cooperate with Zhang Yu and them, accepting their consulting services. Xie Zhen really worries about what the industry would say if this spreads.

Zhang Yu knows a quick decision isn’t possible, "It’s okay, I just wanted to advertise. Of course, if it works out, that’s the best."

"If not, it’s okay; I just mentioned it casually."

"Are you guys planning to start a company?" Both Zhang Yu and Feng Lina are capable people; Xie Zhen thinks there’s a strong possibility they’ll collaborate in the future.

Given the circumstances, there’s even less reason to strain relations; better to ease things, "If you plan to start a company, I can provide a good place; the rent isn’t too high, and the location is great."

A good location? Cheap rent? This is Harbor City, after all, and the current economic outlook is promising. Can office rent be cheap?

"Right in Central." Xie Zhen explained the situation with the office building.

Knowing Xie Zhen is financially strong or that the investment bank behind him is powerful, of course they don’t think the office address rent here in Harbor City would be expensive, "We’re just a small company."

"Quite frankly, barring surprises, it’s just the two of us." Whether it’s her or Feng Lina, they aren’t considering expanding the studio; it’s essentially two people who don’t want 9-to-5 jobs but also don’t want to disconnect from society, hence starting this consultancy.

"If we wanted to create a better career, why would Xiao Na resign? With her previous job, she could continue, and she might even get promoted to a senior role."

Pursuing more successful careers? Neither Zhang Yu nor Feng Lina are considering this.

"We just want healthy bodies so that during breaks, we can wander around freely."

Xie Zhen watched Zhang Yu mutter endlessly, clearly understanding her thoughts, not accepting his persuasion, and wanting no changes to her current situation.

"Fine, not going to Capital City is okay. Right now, things are really tumultuous there, with all sorts of characters stepping up." Xie Zhen recalled the Capital City financial circle chaos, especially the turmoil with the Han Family, and helplessly sighed.

"By the way, Mr. Han’s health condition has acted up again." This is big news; Xie Zhen thinks Zhang Yu would be delighted to hear this.

Mr. Han’s health problems? Isn’t it something that’s always been talked about? "Hasn’t his health been poor these past few years? Now he’s practically living in the hospital, making it his home?"

There have always been rumors about Mr. Han’s poor health, supposedly ready to pass at any moment, yet he stubbornly survives year after year.

"This time it’s really not good; quite possibly he might actually pass away." Mr. Han’s poor health, to Xie Zhen, really is good news.

But he couldn’t find happiness, "The Han Family is quite chaotic now."

"Last time Lin Yu’s team almost succeeded in securing the IPO, which would have increased their influence within the Han Family, but they failed."

"They were particularly high-profile before and were the main ones instigating a conflict with the main family branch."

"Failing to secure the project was a significant blow, and they haven’t landed the following few deals either."

"On the contrary, the main branch secured several small deals, and their personnel’s positions moved up this month; how do you think the other Han Family members feel about this?"

"As for the family fund, it’s managed by Han Xue’s parents, with quite a few freeloaders joined in, each having their own views, conducting operations fiercely yet haphazardly."

"Directly losing millions in a month." Truly incredible "You know how the stock market performed this month."

Xie Zhen really admired the Han Family group, now somewhat understanding why the Han Family main branch would seek self-interest so directly; they simply couldn’t budget wisely with this group.

Zhang Yu understood, that it was the interest factor that united them, but now, with no hope for promotion and heavy losses in the family fund, she really couldn’t comprehend it.

"Lately, unless one’s luck is terrible, how could one lose, especially so much?"

"Even if they’re incompetent, they can’t be this reckless with their investments." It’s commonly said that retail investors are the scapegoats of capital. The Han Family is certainly not retail; they’re essentially capital themselves, how could they incur losses?

"Moreover, they’re all mixed up in the financial circle, their sources of information should be very well-connected." In domestic stock trading, sometimes the key is being well-informed.

Regarding this matter, Xie Zhen genuinely wants to know, "Everyone’s very curious, though some suggest the so-called losses might just be the group looking out for their personal benefits."

"After all, it’s their internal matter, only they know the exact extent and causes of the losses."

This could very much be the case; if so, Zhang Yu just wants to say Mr. Han’s severe illness might be linked to these issues.
