302 Disadvantage
As two brothers of similar age, naturally, some people would compare Big Brother Le and Second Brother Le, which gave Second Brother Le some pressure.
Naturally, Second Brother Le was also very outstanding, but this excellence wasn’t unique when compared to Big Brother Le. Therefore, in Second Brother Le’s heart, he thought that his big brother was the best. He even added that he wouldn’t lose to him.
When he suddenly ran off to open an entertainment company, it was actually because he was provoked by Big Brother Le. At that time, everyone in the family knew that Big Brother Le had been using his pocket money to invest since he was eleven or twelve years old.
His family had always thought that he was just playing around. Seeing that he had never cried or complained about losing money, they let him go and play.
In the end, when he was 20 years old, Papa Le wanted to cooperate with a soft clothing company and use their connections to open up the market in L province.
However, the negotiations for this project had not been going well. The attitude of the other company’s boss had always been ambiguous. Papa Le suspected that he had contacted other people in the same industry and was preparing to compare the goods with the three companies.
That day, he was casually complaining to Mama Le at home and was overheard by Big Brother Le, who was passing by the kitchen to drink some water. He said,
“Dad, if you’re sure you want to close the deal, I can help you make an appointment with President Lin. You two can talk in private.
Papa Le was shocked.
“How do you know President Lin?”
Big Brother Le calmly took a sip of water.
“A few years ago, their company had some cash flow difficulties. I happened to have some spare money, so I invested a little.”
He said it indifferently,
“So you’re also one of the shareholders of that soft clothing company?”
Big Brother Le nodded.
“I guess so. After all, it’s only 10% of the shares.”
It was also at this time that the Le family discovered a shocking fact. Their eldest son had done many great things without a word.
In the end, under the care of his parents, they finally found out how big the business territory that Big Brother Le was involved in was. Basically, it involved manufacturing, the service industry, the internet, and the financial industry.
Although most of the money involved wasn’t very large, there were few losses in each investment. As the saying goes, little drops of water make a mighty ocean. Just the dividends he could get every year were enough to make people jealous. Big Brother Le was only twenty years old, but he already had the qualifications to retire, which many people dreamed of.
Second Brother Le, who had just been admitted to the same university as his eldest brother, was stunned on the spot when he found out about this.
It could be said that the reason why Second Brother Le suddenly said that he wanted to start a company and make money had a lot to do with this stimulation.
Big Brother Le said that Second Brother Le was “stubborn”, and this was exactly what he meant. Second Brother Le hoped that one day, he could truly be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with his most respected brother.
This was also the main reason why in the original novel, Second Brother Le was unable to recover after suffering a defeat. Apart from his dream being shattered, he couldn’t face his past pride, nor could he face his big brother who supported him wholeheartedly.
Outside the house, Le Wan was recalling the plot in the book. Inside the house, Big Brother Le heard Little Brother Le talking about the bet and the card draw.
“How much did you agree to top up every day?”
Little Brother Le raised two fingers guiltily.
“Two thousand.”
“So many?” Big Brother Le frowned. For families like theirs, 2000 yuan was nothing, but for a junior high school student, 2000 yuan a day was a lot of money as it was for ordinary people.
Those who studied at Mingcheng High School could afford the money, but what about those outside of Mingcheng?
As this matter involved Le Wan, he was more or less concerned about the game’s situation. He knew that once the game was launched, it was particularly popular, especially among young people.
Game manufacturers made games to let players spend money, but if they involved a large number of minors who had no income and couldn’t act independently, things were likely to go out of control.
At the thought of this, Big Brother Le looked worriedly at Zhai Jing who was outside the house.
Now, Zhai Jing still had the Halo of a “genius game designer” and had countless fans. Therefore, even if there was a small backlash from public opinion, it wouldn’t affect him.
However, if the problem of underaged spending money became a social problem, then he would face public criticism.
He just didn’t know if Dahong Corporation had realized this problem…
