Chapter 50: Xiong Bin
After getting off the plane, Wu Qi and Tang Rong left separately.
Yu Tai drove the car sent by the hotel and headed towards the address mentioned by Wu Qi.
With the experience of starting Dark Horse Game Company, Wu Qi was very confident in starting Sog Company.
There is support and there is no shortage of funds. What he needs to do now is to find talents.
Wu Qi got off the plane and didn't even go to the hotel, just for the sake of the leader of Soger Company.
"Boss, are you right?"
Yu Tai rarely spoke, but this time he had to speak out.
Because he searched for the address and found it, the surrounding environment was far different from what he expected.
"That's right, keep driving forward!" Wu Qi said calmly.
The car left the road and entered a remote alley.
There are tube towers all around, and the blue walls have long been pitch black.
There is still moss in the corners, and broken boards and plastic bottles are piled up inside and outside the low courtyard.
The car stopped at the door, and Wu Qi took Yang Min in.
"Who are you looking for?" An old woman came out with alert eyes.
"Hello, aunt, we are looking for Teacher Xiong Binxiong!" Wu Qi said with a smile.
"What are you looking for Binzi for?" The aunt was still vigilant.
"Are you from Teacher Xiong..." Wu Qi asked.
"I am his mother," the aunt snorted and shouted, "Someone is looking for me!"
There was no movement in the house. The aunt was so angry that she rushed into the house.
Cursing sounds sounded, followed by screams and pleas for mercy.
A bearded man wearing beach shorts and a tank top ran out covering his arms.
He rubbed the corners of his eyes, flicked away the gum, and scratched his messy hair.
He came to Wu Qi and asked, "Do you have any cigarettes?"
Yang Min frowned subconsciously, and the sour smell almost made her vomit.
"There is one in the car," Wu Qi said with a smile, "It's still a good smoke."
"Forget it," Xiong Bin put his hands in his pockets, "I don't know you, just go back and forth wherever you go!"
"I know Teacher Xiong's talent, so I came here specifically to ask you to come out." Wu Qi smiled and said, "I hope you will seriously consider it."
"Come out of the mountain? Have you watched too many TV series?" Xiong Bin raised his chin and sneered, "I am just a poor teacher, not an outsider."
"Talented people cannot be hidden, and of course they need Bole." Wu Qi said, "I am Wu Qi, the chairman of Dark Horse Games Company. You may not have heard of my company, but the games produced by our company
"Sorg Continent", you must have heard of it."
""Soge Continent" belongs to your company?" Xiong Bin heard this and immediately looked at Wu Qi. This seemed to be his first serious look. He soon shook his head, "It doesn't look like it."
"I don't need to lie to you." Wu Qi smiled and took a document from Yang Min. "I have a big project to give you. I hope you can think about it carefully and give me the news within three days."
"Hey!" Xiong Bin looked at the two people who turned around and left, and shouted, "You have found the wrong person!"
Wu Qi waved his hand and without turning his head, he took Yang Min out and left in the car.
When the car started, Xiong Bin chased him out and threw the documents on the ground against the butt of the car.
"Boss, this guy seems to have a mental problem." Yang Min looked serious.
"People who are capable are either arrogant or unruly. This Mr. Xiong Bin was hit hard, and everything seems a bit unruly." Wu Qi said with a smile.
"You think so highly of him?" Yang Min was puzzled. She didn't think there was anything great about this man.
"I need talents, and he is the person I am looking for." Wu Qi said, "How old do you think he is?"
"More than forty!" Yang Min thought for a while.
Xiong Bin has an unkempt beard, gray hair, dark circles under his eyes, and wrinkles on his forehead, so he looks very old. Coupled with the age of the aunt, this inference seems reasonable.
"He is thirty-three years old this year. Ten years ago he was a genius who became famous in Yuzhang." Wu Qi said, "He made his fortune by relying on children's toys. Ten years ago he was a billionaire. At his peak, he was worth 500 million."
"500 million ten years ago!" Yang Min was shocked, "Then how did he end up like this?"
"Young and energetic, he doesn't know how to share benefits, offends others, and is plotted by others." Wu Qi lamented, "If he wasn't really talented, let alone his current life, he would have jumped into the river long ago."
In the land of Yuzhang, there are many geniuses.
It doesn't matter if you become famous for a while, what's important is to keep winning.
Many geniuses appear briefly and then disappear.
This Mr. Xiong Bin is such a genius.
"Since he has not been able to withstand the blow and has fallen for so long, can he still be qualified for the position you gave him?" Yang Min thought of Xiong Bin, "He seems to have been disabled."
"The ability is still there. As for whether it is useless, it depends on him." Wu Qi smiled and said to Tai, "Let's go! Go back to the hotel and rest first."
Back at the hotel, Wu Qi took a shower and called Chen Haixiu.
Then he took the tablet and made a video call with Lu Lu, asking her to report on the company's situation.
More than two hours later, Xiong Bin came over.
He changed his clothes and although he had not shaved, he looked clean and tidy.
Wu Qi asked the waiter to call the dining car, and the two of them ate in the room.
Xiong Bin didn't move. He looked at Wu Qi, "Why did you choose me?"
"I know about you because I saw your news on TV when I was in elementary school." Wu Qi said with a smile, "In our town, there is also a Hope Primary School that you donated."
Xiong Bin's lips moved slightly, not knowing what to say.
"You are a toy seller. You also have experience in company management and have strong control over the market." Wu Qi said, "Although you have become a high school teacher over the years, I don't think you will sink like this. Nothing can defeat a person."
Man, what’s more, the fire in your heart has not been extinguished."
"Let's not mention what happened back then," Xiong Bin looked at Wu Qi, "Since you know these things, you still choose me. This is very touching, but have you thought about the consequences?"
"I have thought about it, but what about you?" Wu Qi said while eating, "Have you ever thought about your future life? If you continue to sink like this without even getting married, have you ever thought about your mother?"
Xiong Bin pursed his lips and his eyes were a little moist.
Wu Qi took out a pair of clean chopsticks and handed them to him, "You need an opportunity, and I need talents. We each get what we need. It's that simple."
"Thank you!" Xiong Bin stood up and bowed, "I have been waiting for this opportunity for ten years!"
Ten years ago, when he was at his most glorious, he was betrayed by the person he loved most, which caused him to fall directly from the top to the bottom, and for a time he had the idea of remaining in this life.
Ten years later, Wu Qi, who was younger than him, appeared in front of him and gave him a chance. Xiong Bin had no reason to refuse because no one would pay attention to him except Wu Qi.
"Welcome to Sogg!" Wu Qi said with a smile.
The old-looking Xiong Bin in front of me has a management ability of 90 and a market acumen of 92. What is even more rare is that he has the talent of inspiration and loyalty.
