Su Daiwan couldn’t help Li Mubai .
Li Murong’s meaning was very clear . He himself has no intention of investing in Lu Chen’s online crowdfunding, but he must let Li Mubai work with Lu Chen to prevent him idling around all day and tarnish the reputation of the Li family .
Speaking of which, it was Li Mubai who bumped into the door himself, otherwise Li Murong wouldn’t have found the right opportunity .
Didn’t you want to help your friends? OK, then do some serious work!
Li Murong is a very strong-willed person . Now that he has made up his mind, it was useless for Li Murong to ask anyone for help, not to mention Su Daiwan also supports her husband’s idea .
This made Lu Chen felt a little guilty .
Li Mubai was dragged into the water by him, but he also thought there was nothing wrong with Li Murong’s approach .
Li Muba’s personality is very good . He doesn’t have the extravagance and leisure of children of rich families, but if he spends his money doing nothing at home in this way, he will be abolished in the long run .
As a friend, Lu Chen is very happy to be able to co-operate with Li Mubai on the online crowdfunding .
Because he came up with this idea, first of all, to serve himself, and he had no intention or energy and strength to make it bigger and stronger .
Li Mubai is different . Looking at his big brother’s demeanor, if he supports it behind the scene, as long as he gets the creative protection certificate, it may become another IDphoto!
IDphoto is a famous photo-sharing website in the United States . The founder is a technical otaku named Rodney . In 2010, he established this personal website at home in 2010 and has always maintained and operated independently .
By 2013, the number of users of IDphoto soared to 30 million, and then it was acquired by Windows for $1 billion, becoming a legend in the IT industry!
Lu Chen was familiar with IDphoto’s story . The inspiration of online crowdfunding has something to do with this legend . Although he has no extravagant hope of becoming Rodney, but getting a bucket of gold with crowdfunding is not a dream .
In addition to submitting an application for creative protection to Creative Protection Office, Lu Chen also asked Lu Xi to submit the same registration documents to FSK in the United States and OKI in the European Union, which are currently awaiting review .
FSK is the US version of the Creative Protection Office . The scope of protection of its regulations covers Japan and South Korea .
Li Murong ignored his brother’s cry, and he said to Lu Chen, “This is how this matter is decided!”
“I’ll say the same thing . You two friends should discuss and solve the specific stock issue by yourselves . It is best to set up a new company specializing in operation and management . I will let Mushi help you . ”

Li Murong specially explained: “Mushi is Mu Bai’s big sister, who just graduated from Wharton School of Business this year . ”
Wharton School of Business?
Su Xuan’s smile suddenly appeared in Lu Chen’s mind . Didn’t she go to Wharton School of Business to study?
Li Murong continued: “As for creative protection, I’ll take care of it . You don’t need to worry about anything . Choose a time to put the website online first . If I can’t even handle it…”
He didn’t say the rest . Lu Chen also fully understood the meaning .
If even Li Murong can’t handle it, don’t expect to get that important card .
And if he can attain the certificate, then there is no problem for the crowdfunding website to operate first – who will pay attention to a small website that has just been launched? On the Internet, it is unknown how many websites that opened and closed every day!
Most importantly, Li Murong seems to be very confident about this, and it is estimated that it will not be very difficult to pass .
Lu Chen said sincerely, “Thank you, Brother Li!”
The solution proposed by Li Murong was undoubtedly the most suitable for Lu Chen . In this way, he can be a hands-off owner . He wouldn’t need to worry about labor for the online crowdfunding, and can always focus on his career .
Li Murong said with a faint smile, “it is I who want to thank you, letting my younger brother have a serious job to do . ”
Lu Chen was speechless .
At this time, Su Daiwan asked softly, “Are you done talking about your business?”
Li Murong looked at his wife in surprise and nodded: “We’re done . ”
Su Daiwan smiled and said, “Then I have something to ask Lu Chen . Lu Chen, do you mind?”
Lu Chen hurriedly said, “I don’t mind, sister-in-law . ”
Su Daiwan blinked and asked, “Lu Chen, do you have a girlfriend now?”
Li Murong suddenly didn’t know whether to laugh or cry . He thought his wife had something important to ask Lu Chen .
But Su Daiwan obviously thinks that this question is very important, and she is very serious .

This question…
Lu Chen felt a little embarrassed, but still calmly replied, “Not at the moment . ”
Su Daiwan asked, “Why not? For a handsome and talented boy like you, there must be a lot of girls who take the initiative to pursue you . Is it that you are too demanding? Or is it because you are an artist?”
There was a slight smile in her eyes .
Lu Chen was under a lot of pressure .
To be honest, even in the face of Li Murong just now, his pressure was not so great!
After thinking about it, Lu Chen honestly said, “Sister-in-law, I actually have no plans of having a girlfriend for the time being . At present, I mainly focus on my career, and I want to make more money to help my family, so…”
Lu Chen is not stupid . How could he not understand Su Daiwan’s intention to be a matchmaker for him?
But he really didn’t have that in mind right now .
Li Murong said, “Un, men should give priority to their careers . If they have a successful career, why would they be afraid of not having a girlfriend . ”
Su Daiwan glared at him angrily and continued to ask, “Listening to what you said, your family is not in a good situation?”
After winning “Singing China” championship, Lu Chen’s family background has long been exposed on the Internet, so he has nothing to hide and briefly told it to Su Daiwan .
Su Daiwan was moved and sighed, “Aunt is really strong . If I have the chance, I’d like to visit her . ”
Li Murong also nodded: “Keeping promises . Women are no worse than men . This moral character can make a lot of people ashamed!”
Her husband died when the family is in difficult situation . And while she is having a difficult time maintaining their livelihoods, she still persists in repaying the huge debt, keeping their promises and responsibility . This is not what ordinary people can do .
Su Daiwan’s eyes softened . “Then you and your sister must have had a hard time . ”
Lu Chen said: “The previous years have been very hard, but this year is much better . I have made a lot of money . ”
He looked at Li Mubai and said, “Thanks to Mubai’s help . ”
Li Mubai smiled and proudly puffed out his chest .

Su Daiwan smiled and said, “I know you have a good relationship, and I also know that you wrote a song for him called Li Bai, making him assume a false name to pick up a girl, right?”
Li Mubai seemed like he was struck by lightning, and lost his voice, “Sister-in-law, how do you know that?”
He thought that only he and Lu Chen knew about it .
Su Daiwan glanced at him – Don’t insult everyone’s IQ, will you?
Li Mubai wilted again .
Su Daiwan knocked Li Mubai down a peg and asked Lu Chen, “I like your song very much . did you write “You Who Sat Next To Me” to your first girlfriend?” (TN: Knock down a peg – to reduce or damage someone’s ego or pride . )
Her eyes sparkled with moving light and she looked very interested .
Lu Chen said with a wry smile, “Sort of . ”
First love is unforgettable, it is simple and pure love .
Some people will fight for their first love to the end, some people have no choice but to say goodbye, but all people will always remember their first love, because it is the most sincere feeling, and it doesn’t contain any distracting thoughts!
When Lu Chen sang “You Who Sat Next To Me”, he often recalled his first girlfriend .
Su Daiwan said with a smile, “She is a fan of mine . Are you still in touch with her now?”
Lu Chen shook his head and said, “I haven’t been in touch for a long time . She moved to Hong Kong with her family in her second year of high school . ”
Speaking of this, Lu Chen couldn’t help saying, “in fact, she prefers Taiwan and often says she wants to live in Taipei . ”
“Taipei…”
Su Daiwan repeated the word gently, with a touch of sadness in her eyes: “I haven’t been back for many years, but I often think of the rain in Taipei and the snow in Yangming Mountain . ”
Lu Chen’s heart moved and said, “Sister-in-law, I came to visit you this time, but I didn’t bring any gifts . I’ll give you a song . ”
Su Daiwan’s eyes suddenly lit up and said, “Okay! Okay!”
The radiance that bloom on her face instantly dazzled Li Murong, Li Mubai and Lu Chen .
Li Murong responded quickly, immediately holding Su Daiwan’s hand and glared at Li Mubai and Lu Chen .
This is your sister-in-law, don’t think too much!
Su Daiwan stood up happily and said, “I haven’t sung in a long time…”
“Lu Chen, I’ll take this gift . Shall we go to the piano room and hear you sing it first? Can you play the piano?”
Lu Chen originally wanted to write the score after going back and then ask Li Mubai to give it to her . But unexpectedly, Su Daiwan was so eager to hear it now .
Of course, it wasn’t good for him to spoil the other party’s fun, so he immediately nodded .
After all, it is a rich and powerful household . The villa where Li Mubai lives not only has a separate tea room, but also a large piano room .
The piano room is right next to the tea room . The inside is very clean and tidy . On the floor made of cherry wood, there is a magnificent black horizontal grand piano .
Lu Chen easily distinguished the golden harp symbol imprinted on the big lid — Steinway .
Steinway is one of the most famous piano brands in the world, and the price is astonishingly expensive . So, Steinway usually appears in top orchestras and music schools .
Millions of units, Lu Chen couldn’t afford it even when his family was at its best .
Su Daiwan smiled and said to Lu Chen, “When I lived here with your big brother, I used to play the piano for him . I haven’t touched this piano for a long time . ”
She walked to the front of the piano, reached out, and slid her hand over the keys .
The wonderful sound of the piano floated out like running water .
Su Daiwan’s face was filled with memories and joy, as if she remembered many beautiful things in the past .
Looking at his wife, Li Murong’s resolute face also became soft .
After a while, Su Daiwan said, “Lu Chen, let’s listen to you now!”
Lu Chen nodded and sat down on the piano bench .
He took a deep, long breath .
