In the morning of early summer, the air in Shanghai is filled with humidity that has not yet dissipated, and the glass curtain walls of the high-rise buildings along the river reflect light like broken gold. Before the tourists on the Bund gathered, the first ferry made a pale white ripple on the Huangpu River.
Shen Yi stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the company building, holding documents in his left hand and tapping the glass with his right hand, maintaining his habitual silent thinking. She is twenty-seven years old and is the youngest senior analyst in Dejun International Investment Department. Her academic qualifications, professional ability, and calmness in handling problems all make her stand out among her peers. But at the same time, she seemed to be wrapped in an invisible transparent shell, maintaining a deliberate distance from her colleagues. Her life was precise and regular, running as strictly as a dial.
At nine o'clock sharp, she walked into the conference room on time.
The project to be reported today is a financing cooperation case with Hansheng Technology. It was a rapidly rising smart medical company and was regarded by the capital market as a hot track in the future. On the other side of this meeting was Hansheng's new executive vice president, Lu Chen.
The conference room door was gently pushed open and Lu Chen walked in.
He is quieter than rumor has it. A black shirt, a watch without too many decorations, and a face that was born with a sense of indifference. When his eyes fell on Shen Yi, there was no extra testing, and he just nodded lightly.
"Ms. Shen, we have communicated via email before." His voice was low but calm and clean.
Shen Yi nodded in the same way and said in a straight tone: "Yes. Today we will mainly discuss the details of the financing terms."
The sound of turning pages of documents sounded in the room. The sun shines through the blinds and falls on the table between the two of them, cutting each other's shadows into several pieces.
