When Zhou Jie was thirty-two years old, the company was finally completed.
When she came to the city from a small town eight years ago, she rented a 10-square-meter partition, endured hardships of 500 yuan a month, and survived the days when her partner ran away and owed 800,000 yuan. After stumbling along the way, "Green Ya" was finally built into a company with a valuation of over 100 million.
She thought the hardest time was over.
Unexpectedly, the real test has just begun. The technical team was hollowed out, the partner suddenly withdrew the order, and everything was in chaos overnight. She stood in front of the office window and asked herself for the first time: Are these eight years worth it?
That's when Lu Shen came.
A technical person who talks very little, on the day she came for the interview, she downloaded her company's products and spent two days thoroughly exploring the technical architecture. "I know what your situation is," he said, "but I think I can help."
Zhou Jie looked at the man wearing an old sweater and suddenly remembered herself back then.
In the days that followed, they fought many battles together. When he was most tired, he silently handed over a sandwich. When it was the most difficult time, he stood behind him and said, "I'll help you."
On the night of the heavy rain, the two of them were trapped in the office, wrapped in blankets and watching a movie. He talked about his past - his father passed away very early, his mother also passed away, and he lived alone for many years. As Zhou Jie listened, she suddenly understood why he was always so boring, so stubborn, and didn't say anything.
Because no one has carried it with him.
Many people know what happened next. They survived the most difficult time together and stood together on the stage to ring the bell for the listing. The moment the bell rang, he secretly held her hand.
