Let's Get Married

Kevin wants to make it all gone as if it were nothing, just to give the feeling of unimportance, yet not knowing that he has already crossed Rex's bottom line.

Rex listens to Kevin with a grin on his face. He picks the mug from the table and sips gently the superb oolong tea. The bitter-sweet fragrance of that tea refreshes the palate with an explosion of flavor.

"Do you know the reason I invested in Bit Inc.?" bursts Rex out of the blue, leaving Kevin astonished.

Kevin still remembers the first time he saw Rex. At that time Rex was already a successful businessman, way more than he was. Kevin was in negative with the annual capital turnover and Rex had been the only one who had hope in him and helped him moving forward.

He also remembers that Rex was wearing a black suit and no tie that day, and he could never dream of the watch on his wrist. His assistant reported that he could only give him 20 minutes as he was expected in another meeting shortly after.

Kevin used his whole twenty minutes wisely explaining everything in detail while Rex was listening carefully and throwing one or two questions from time to time, nothing more.

Kevin was sure that he was meeting his very end, but unexpectedly he got Rex’s money the day after.

He was relieved. The company could make terrific changes and stay afloat just because of Rex.

But just now, Rex asked Kevin why he should invest in Bit Inc.

As for Kevin, he thinks that his company has no obvious advanytages, and the only advantage is that the company is engaged in the profession that Rex wants to invest in. Therefore, he gives a dumb safe answer, "Because of the company's culture and value?!"

Although the answer is aleatory, it makes most investors feel reassured.

Rex laughs, briefly but enough to make people around nervous, "No, the real answer is because it is an environmental technology company and you believe in charity."
