Chapter 69 Wedding Tutorial: Leveraging Your Connections

Fu Mingzhang handed Fu Qiwen's hand to Qi Fuan without saying a word. His eyes were deep, full of solemnity and warning as he looked at Qi Fuan.

Qi Fuan smiled sincerely.

The pastor on the side spoke up and asked Qi Fuan and Fu Qiwen whether they were willing to love each other for the rest of their lives and be loyal and respectful forever.

The two men took a solemn oath, and the audience burst into applause.

Fu Ziyan had watched this process many times when attending weddings in her previous life. At first, she was moved by the lines and the beauty of love. As she grew older, she gradually understood that no matter how beautiful the love is, it will turn into the daily necessities of life in marriage, and no matter how solemn and serious the wedding vows are, they cannot stop the determination of divorce.

She was a little curious. Ordinary people’s love would become about daily necessities, but what about the love of the rich?

After the church wedding, the Qi and Fu families held a banquet at the Yuanxi Hotel in downtown New York. Eighty tables were set up, mostly for the Fu family and Fu Qiyuan's relatives, friends, and business partners. The Qi family was only middle class, and Qi Fuan only ran a small art studio, so his connections were far inferior to those of the Fu family.

So everyone said "a young lady marrying a poor boy". In comparison, even a middle-class family is indeed not worth mentioning in front of the Fu family.

This is also the reason why the second concubine Zhou Mengxiang has always been reluctant to let her youngest daughter marry Qi Fuan. The reason why she finally agreed was that she couldn't resist Fu Qiwen, and the old man also agreed.

Even though she still looked down on Qi Fuan in her heart, for the sake of her daughter's marriage, the second concubine was always polite to her son-in-law Qi Fuan.

Qi Fuan's marriage to Fu Qiwen, the second daughter of the Fu family, was a great opportunity in many ways. Qi Fuan could easily obtain funds, connections, and channels that ordinary businessmen could not obtain.

For example, many of Qi Fuan's clients, customers, and partners dressed up to attend the wedding banquet just to have a chance to meet the Fu family and Fu Qiyuan.

Of course, there were people who were secretly discussing, "Is Miss Fu stupid? She hasn't married for so many years, thinking she was an independent woman working hard for her career. Unexpectedly, in the end, she found a second-married middle-class man and became his stepmother."

The listeners nodded silently in their hearts, but did not dare to agree with the comments. After all, it was someone else's wedding, and they didn't want to offend the Fu family.

Some guests were envious, "Marrying for the second time and finding a rich young lady is a step up! I heard the dowry will be incredibly generous."

The wife of a business partner retorted, "No matter how generous Miss Fu's dowry is, it is not Mr. Qi's in the end. How can the Fu family allow their son-in-law to use their daughter's dowry at will?"

Indeed, the daughter of the Fu family is not someone who is easily bullied. Even Fu Qiwen, who is "love-brained", had Qi Fuan sign a prenuptial agreement under the witness of a lawyer before marriage to protect her own interests.

There was a lot of discussion on the scene about Miss Fu's marriage, and Fu Ziyan finally met Qi Yuwei, the daughter of her second uncle's ex-wife.

A six-year-old girl, her face as red as an apple, a smile tinged with anxiety, was wearing a light yellow princess dress and a small pearl crown on her head.

The second concubine smiled and politely handed the red envelope to Qi Yuwei. After all, in name, this was her granddaughter.

Seeing her granddaughter wearing the hair crown her youngest daughter had worn when she was little, the second concubine was furious. "What on earth is this daughter of hers trying to do? She's the daughter of the Fu family, and she wants to be someone else's stepmother? She's so stubborn, how can her biological mother harm her?"

Fu Qiwen, who was considered extremely stubborn by the second concubine, was quite satisfied with the wedding. She finally married him!

As for second marriage and stepdaughter, so what?

After all, it was she who stayed by his side. As for the daughter born to his ex-wife, it didn't matter at all. She didn't need the money to raise a child. Of course, her dowry assets would definitely be left to her children in the future.

She wasn't really so obsessed with her first love, Qi Fuan, that she forgot everything. Although she hadn't married for many years because she missed her first love, it was more because she had never met the person she liked.

After all, men in the world are still too patriarchal.

What she wants is a husband who respects her, recognizes her, and treats her as an equal, not a husband who acts like a gentleman on the surface but subconsciously looks down on women in his heart.

Qi Fuan was very much to her liking in this respect. He had similar values ​​and good character. In addition, he suited her aesthetic taste and had the added bonus of a first love. He was a very suitable marriage partner.

In addition, Qi Fuan's humble family background was also an important factor. Unlike her mother's point of view, she felt that people with humble family backgrounds were easier to control and could not betray him!

What she wanted was a peaceful and prosperous life, a harmonious marriage, and a long life together. Her dowry was enough to provide her with a comfortable life.

Fu Ziyan doesn't care about her love-brained second aunt's views on love and marriage. At this moment, she is following her father and helping him to meet the Fu family's partners.

Among these connections, there was always someone she could use, such as Andrew Stephen, the founder of the Wal-Mart department store chain, the American department store to which Fu Qiyuan had transferred 5% of its shares.

This was her first time meeting the founder, but there was no doubt that Woer Department Store was a useful connection for her - the toy sales of Yihuan Toy Factory.

This use of personal connections is a very simple practice, but Fu Qiyuan's original intention was just to let Titi learn to use her personal connections and maximize the use of the resources around her.

Fu Ziyan learned this and tried very hard to get to know all the partners at the wedding banquet.

The accumulation of personal connections is a result of bit by bit. If it is useless now, it may not be useful in the future.

For example, Guo Yanyang, because he loves art, he is considered a major contractor in Qi Fuan's art studio, and was therefore invited to attend the wedding banquet.

Qi Fuan was originally an insignificant connection, but now it is no longer the case. He can use this opportunity to get to know Fu Qiyuan.

The name Fu Qiyuan was widely known in American high society. In the past, it was because he was known as the "King of Speculation on Wall Street," but later it was because he was such a skilled investor that, over the past decade or so, he had never lost a single investment.

Moreover, Fu Qiyuan likes to invest in small start-up businesses or capable young people, commonly known as "stock pressure", but again, there has been no failure so far.

Guo Yanyang was indeed overjoyed to see Fu Qiyuan at the wedding banquet.

As a second-generation rich man who is not too rich, he has a heart for entrepreneurship. However, his family members are not optimistic about him and are unwilling to invest in him. They hope that he can inherit the family business.

Simply put, Guo Yanyang is looking for investors, and Fu Qiyuan is considered the ceiling among angel investors.

Fu Qiyuan remained calm as he looked at the young man in front of him, who was dressed in a suit but showed his unconventional nature. After toasting him, he directly stated that he had a project that he wanted him to review and invest in.

It’s nothing, I’ve seen it a lot.

However, this was a good opportunity to teach his daughter, so Fu Qiyuan didn't leave his business card with the assistant as he had done in the past. Instead, he smiled and lowered his head, "Titi, do you want to try?"

Ah! Her?

Fu Ziyan was a little surprised, but more eager to try.

When she was in Hong Kong, she had attended several investment conferences with her father and had a general idea of ​​what aspects to consider when investing. She also used her pocket money to test the waters, but it was just a small-scale experiment.

This is obviously a big project!

With her father there to support her, Fu Ziyan was not panicked at all and nodded to her father.

Fu Qiyuan took a step back and gave the home court to his daughter.

Then Fu Ziyan looked at Guo Yanyang, smiled slightly and nodded, "I'd like to hear more details."
