Dong Qiangqiang's Story of Leaving Germany

Chapter 866

"I still remember that the first Christmas after I came to Germany was spent with my professors and classmates at the college. The professor said that Christmas is a time for Germans to slow down, reflect, recharge and find peace. Especially in these challenging times, being able to walk in nature is the best gift you can give yourself.” Lao Bai walked under the apple tree, stroking the light brown trunk and looking up at the sparse branches The gray and white clouds are getting thicker and thicker above, "The news said that this year will be a warm winter, and it is true. A white Christmas is like the Spring Festival without fireworks. It has no sense of the year."

"There is a German proverb: White Christmas, Green Easter. Green Christmas, White Easter. If December is mild, rainy, and snowless, it will be a Green Christmas. Winter will not be hard, but Easter will be the next year." It’s hard to say.” Dong Qiangqiang read a lot of things to the old lady, and he was familiar with similar content.

"You know all of this? That's fine." Lao Bai praised, "The more knowledge the better, the more skills you have, the better."

"It's all useless knowledge, (the snow) might fall tomorrow." Dong Qiangqiang echoed inadvertently, wondering whether he should ask, and how to phrase it.Although he had an extraordinary survival experience with Laobai, Dong Qiangqiang could feel that Laobai's current high spirits were completely different from the depression at the beginning of the year, and Laobai didn't say a word about opening an account outside the bank at night, as if he kept secret.Dong Qiangqiang felt entangled: some things can only be mentioned to the end, but they have to be mentioned.

Just as he was thinking, the howling wind gradually stopped.

Seeing that Dong Qiangqiang was speechless, Lao Bai stared at him thoughtfully with a question mark in his eyes, and said with a tacit understanding: "Ask whatever you want, it's not good to hold back."

Dong Qiangqiang was stunned for a second before laughing at himself, embarrassed and relieved, he couldn't help raising his eyes to look at Lao Bai, just in time to see the eyes that had seen terrible things staring at him. His eyes were full of light, like a beast hiding in a dark corner looking for opportunities to prey.

Dong Qiangqiang shook his head with a wry smile: "(I) have a picture?"

"It's too obvious." Lao Bai said confidingly, "Old Dong, we are both simple people, you really don't need to go around."

Dong Qiangqiang stopped thinking about it: "Just now I chatted with Duanmu, he said you have looked for him?"

"Yes, two things." Lao Bai was honest, "One for account opening and one for company finance."

Dong Qiangqiang thought to himself, as long as he opened his mouth, Lao Bai would not hide it from him, and he suddenly felt trusted: "Why open an account?"

"A few tourists in the group I took last time wanted to open a personal bank account here, and asked me if I could do it, and they were willing to pay an extra service fee. I don't understand this, so I wanted to ask you, but I will call you After several phone calls, you were not in the service area. The other party was in a hurry, so I had no choice but to find Duanmu. He was not bad, he solved everything, and he didn’t ask for my share. It’s up to you if he is willing to help Save face. When the group left the group, the guests said that they might ask me to help open some more accounts next month, and the fee will remain the same. I also mentioned it to Duanmu, and this time it will be given to him together with the next (share)."

Seeing Lao Bai's sincere eyes, calm expression, gentle tone of voice, and no slight movements in his hands, unlike lying, Dong Qiangqiang remembered that he mainly went to the library some time ago, and the signal there was really bad, so he believed Lao Bai immediately. Just as he was about to continue asking about this explanation, Lao Bai had already guessed his mind in advance: "If you are worried about whether opening an account is illegal, I asked Duanmu, and he said it is not illegal. I consulted and said it was not illegal.”

Dong Qiangqiang's question was choked back, so he could only cover up his embarrassment with a smile: "You have a really long business line now."

"No way, I'm short-handed." Lao Bai sighed, "When I can't get it, it's hard to scratch my heart. It's a pleasure to get it, but it's stressful when I get it. I make $1 on me, so I can't and won't say no to anything that brings legitimate income."

Dong Qiangqiang suddenly thought of the 500 million euros that Sergeira had invested for Duanmu and him, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: How much money would it take to make the other party satisfied?And the other party has not even talked about investment requirements, and has not even met in person. Speaking of the other party is an investor and a creditor, but it seems that they have nothing to do with it.

"You said you were in financial trouble just now?" Dong Qiangqiang made his voice not sound like he was too lenient.

"There is no problem with Lebai's finances. It's just that my investor will send an accountant to me from January 1 next year. First check my account, and then check the account of the domestic company. Only when there is no problem will the investment Of course, you can also understand that the accountant has to manage the accounts for the investor.”

"The other party is afraid that you will make small moves on money, so they asked someone to monitor you?" Dong Qiangqiang pondered, "I didn't expect that domestic investors are so careful now. This may be related to the financial fraud of many US stock listed companies this year. You also Don't take it too seriously."

"Of course I don't care, and I don't intend to fake anything, and I really understand the other party's feelings." Lao Bai looked ahead with piercing eyes and smiled heartily, "Anyway, I have already done what I wanted to do, and they Even if there is any problem with the account, it can be attributed to historical reasons.”

Looking at the uncontrollable pride in the old white eyebrows, Dong Qiangqiang suddenly had a thought and blurted out: "So you give me money?"

"If I don't give it to you now, next year the money may not be known." Lao Bai turned to look at Dong Qiangqiang, "I actually have another idea, but I haven't mentioned it to investors and Duanmu. I plan to take out a small Let the two of you help me invest part of the money."

"What kind of investors are we?" Dong Qiangqiang laughed at himself, "we're not even speculators."

Lao Bai disapproved of Dong Qiangqiang's self-mockery: "Don't underestimate yourself, as long as you can make money, isn't it all right? Talk about a thousand words and ten thousand, this world is very realistic, where people laugh at the poor but not at the prostitutes, real money is the real money." Is synonymous with strength, otherwise a big company would be interested in a small company like me? Isn’t it because I can make money down-to-earth.”

"You can't break the law even if you earn money." Dong Qiangqiang corrected, "A gentleman loves money and gets it in a proper way."

"Are you still going to say 'do something and don't do something'? 'Small wealth depends on diligence, moderate wealth depends on virtue, and great wealth depends on fate'?" Lao Bai's expression changed after joking, and he said seriously, "By the way, you can One thing, I asked Duanmu Lao Maozi if he had sent money to you and Duanmu's company, and he said no, so I understand why Lao Maozi wanted to bury you last time."

"why?"

"Because he wants to keep you and Duanmu in check, so that you don't dare to use your brains. Threats of death are more deterrent than throwing money to other companies."

Dong Qiangqiang only felt that Lao Bai's point of view was unbelievable, but he had no way to refute it, so he had to find another topic: "Speaking seriously, are you betting on the profit with the other party, are you confident to complete it? 500 million income, 250 million profit, what if you don't reach it? I No matter how you feel, you are the same as the roast pig on the fire in the Christmas market.

Laobai's heart is clear: Dong Qiangqiang has been urging himself to be safe since he knew this tonight. If he doesn't explain the details to Dong Qiangqiang, I am afraid that Dong Qiangqiang will continue to nag him for being too aggressive after the year. The reason why Dong Qiangqiang The reason why she cared so much was not because she wanted to spy on Le Bai's profits, but because she cared about him.

"Old Dong, Lebai is not only my company, but also the company of all shareholders. As I said, there are Lele, you, Xu Tongying, and investors. In the future, there will be Lei Lanting, Lao Ding, Xiao Lu...capital can teach me how to build a team and expand the scale of business. The introduction of capital can put Lebai in a more ideal position to surf the wave of new opportunities. I hope that in the next three to four years, the current The valuation has doubled by 100 times."

"100 times?" Dong Qiangqiang felt like a fairy tale.

"That's right," Lao Bai changed the subject, "but now I don't want to discuss the valuation with you. I want to talk to you about the four sectors that will constitute Le Bai's income in the future. Because Xu Tongying said that the higher the valuation, the higher the valuation. The requirements for income and profit are also higher, without the latter, a high valuation cannot be supported.”

"Which four plates?"

Lao Bai spread his hands: "The first must be the tour group. If we make a conservative estimate for next year based on the 70 revenue in the last quarter of this year, then we can probably have 300-400 million in revenue next year, because the 70 is just Xu Tong's income. The customer traffic brought by the eagle is the result of not spending a penny on advertising. Now that I have investment, I can spend a small amount of money on advertising. Although some tourists who cannot go to the United States will be diverted by Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia, Southeast Asia and Japan Han still can’t compare with the United States. Only Europe is the most similar to the United States. Therefore, Xu and I believe that the number of European tourists will increase exponentially in the second half of next year. In the second half of this year, Le Bai received nearly 1.6 times the number of European tourists in the first half of the year. Of course, there is a reason for the small number of tourists in the first half of the year, but the investor also promised to bring us more tourists, so I have every reason to believe: There will definitely be more opportunities for Lebai next year than this year."

After hearing Lao Bai's words, Dong Qiangqiang was stunned.

At the beginning, he was worried about Lao Bai, worried that he was blindly optimistic or chanting fake million-level slogans in order to raise money, and even more faintly worried that he would take risks in order to get investors' money, but he didn't know that Lao Bai Well-founded.Although based on the data of one quarter, it is dare to predict that there will still be suspicions of aggressiveness throughout the year, but the fourth quarter is the off-season for tourism, and only October is worth mentioning. November and December are the months when you accompany the prince to study, and the months in the peak season are different. In other words, based on this point alone, it is not an exaggeration to praise Lao Bai as extremely romantic and adventurous.What really shocked Dong Qiangqiang was that Laobai had already achieved such a scale of Lebai's quarterly income quietly. After being surprised and admiring, he noticed that Laobai's eyes were shining with joy at this time. The light was so shining that when Dong Qiangqiang saw it, he felt a mixed emotion of envy and unreasonable jealousy, which made his question not only suspicious, but even unfriendly: "You just said that there is 10? That much?"

"To be precise, it is more than 68 yuan. Of course, I am talking about RMB. Although a large part of this is the final payment, the actual payment will have to wait until the first quarter of next year, but these customers are basically related to Xu, so the possibility of bad debts is not high. After finishing talking, Lao Bai clasped his index finger into his palm, "The next step is the driving school training. After chatting with Xu, Lao Ding and I discussed it again. I think this part is actually bigger than the market we both thought. It should be a prison and self-limitation. If you can train Chinese people, you can also train foreigners. Anyway, the content of the exam remains the same, and only in this way can you increase your income.”

"This logic is correct, but how do you get customers? It is impossible to find foreign customers as easily as you find Chinese students." Dong Qiangqiang was not led by the nose by Lao Bai's whimsy, and was still thinking about where he would end up.

"Yes." Lao Bai admitted happily, "But I don't just focus on students. Those compatriots with work visas can also be our potential customers. This group of people is no less than students, but we usually don't see it. .”

"continue."

"The third part was inspired by Lei Lanting and Dong Yiqing. I can do business with those business groups who go to Germany or other European countries to participate in exhibitions."

Seeing Dong Qiangqiang's confused face, Lao Bai continued to explain: "In addition to the CeBIT Industrial Fair in Hannover every year, there are also exhibitions such as the Agricultural Machinery Exhibition, the Hannover International Fair, the World Machine Tool Expo, and the Chicago World Manufacturing Skills Expo. Hannover, Germany and Europe organize more than ten thousand world-class exhibitions every year. Although our country just joined the WTO last year, internationalization and globalization have long been the trend of the times, and more and more companies go abroad for inspection every year. Lei Lanting He used to be a second landlord before, and rented his house to the staff of exhibitors who came to Germany to participate in the exhibition. Many of those people did not want to spend a lot of money to stay in a hotel here. In addition to renting a house, Lei Lanting also gave those people food and drink , transportation, shopping and travel are all taken over, and Dong Yiqing has done the translation work for the exhibition. I believe that if Le Bai also does this part, he will definitely do better than the students who work alone."

"This sounds more reliable than your driving school business. Have you already started doing it or are you just thinking about it? If you do it, will there be any income? Have you estimated the income of this part next year?"

Lao Bai smiled and said: "I haven't done it yet. There is no rush for this part. I need to find out the cost and the source of the customer first. I will start the project without considering the cost. It will burn money and waste time. I am reluctant to part with it. Investors Nor agree."

This time Dong Qiangqiang didn't answer, because he suddenly discovered a terrible fact: Lao Bai was traveling on a speeding train, and he had been left far away.

A long-lost sense of loss and abandonment flooded his heart, and he clearly remembered that the last time he felt this way was in August, when everyone else had received their university admission letters, but he was the only one with nothing.

The more Lao Bai talked, the more excited he became, his whole body was in high spirits, and he didn't seem to notice Dong Qiangqiang's strangeness. "As for the fourth part, I want to create another sub-brand under Lebai. I haven't decided on the name yet, but I have already figured out the positioning: carefully design and customize slow travel routes for guests, and provide travel to the world's most interesting, Adventure activities in the coolest, most mysterious and extreme places. There is no limit to the size of the group, the north and south poles, Asia, Africa and Latin America, and the shackles of borderless regions. And most importantly, I hope this brand can break through Lebai The current ceiling."

"Wait, what do you mean by slow travel?" Dong Qiangqiang heard this point of view for the first time, "Is it a small group tour?"

"Let me ask you a question first, what do you think is the meaning of traveling?" Lao Bai looked at him seriously.

"Didn't people say that traveling means going from a place where you are bored to a place where others are bored?" Dong Qiangqiang laughed dryly, seeing Lao Bai's seriousness, he also restrained his smile, "As the saying goes, 'It is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books' I think the greatest significance of travel is to broaden horizons, increase experience, and understand the world more comprehensively. But does this have anything to do with slow travel?"

"In my opinion, travel is the art of slowing down, and slow travel is a concept that goes beyond simply going from A to B, and can be considered as a boutique tour group in the business model." When Lao Bai said this Careful words and sentences are obviously not just nonsense, but thoughts after serious consideration.

Dong Qiangqiang didn't dare to interrupt, and listened intently, the surroundings were silent.

"The big and small groups you mentioned just now are all forms and techniques. I don't stick to the form, what I pursue is the way." Lao Bai smiled, "I hope that from now on I can promote a tourism philosophy that is different from my peers. , After thinking about it, I hope to create a sub-brand based on the concept of slow travel, not just leading customers, sacrificing their precious time, just to visit from one overcrowded city to another overcrowded city .”

"What ceiling did you mention just now?" Dong Qiangqiang asked.

"The three sectors mentioned just now can't get rid of the restriction of only doing business with Chinese people, but in terms of customized products, I hope that I can not only do business with Chinese people, but also do business with Germans and even Europeans. For Germans There is essentially no difference between the Chinese customized tour developed and the European customized tour developed for Chinese people.”

"You want to organize Germans to travel to China? Will the Germans listen to you? Although they are crazy about traveling, they will not trust you easily because you are not a foreigner from Europe or the United States." Dong Qiangqiang believes that Lao Bai knows it well What he said is true, "The invisible threshold of trust is very high."

"It's not easy, but slow travel itself exists to celebrate the journey and the birth of a travel destination. Discover the soul of that place by taking a lesser-known route to bring an unexpected experience, or stay in a place for more Take a long time to get a deeper understanding of the culture, society and history of that place. Although slow travel is new to you, professional European travel agencies have long accepted and promoted this concept. There are those who focus on experiencing all the railway lines in the entire European continent Travel, there are ice and snow routes to observe the mountains and rivers in inaccessible areas, as well as extreme escape trips for rock climbers. As for the various experience trips such as palaces, wineries, and diamond shops, there are more. In my opinion, as Germany’s most As an ancient city, the former Roman Empire and the center of Mosel wine, Trier also has the opportunity to develop one or more boutique routes. I am optimistic that you can take on this part of the work. But if you really want to do it, I just said Yes, we need to do a comprehensive analysis of cost and customer sources first. So this matter is not so fast. If it can’t be done next year, it will be done the next year. The focus must still be on the first three sectors, after all, there is still a road ahead. Yes They gave them the betting target, and I think at least the income must meet the target, so that even if the profit is not realized, there is room for bargaining with the other party, otherwise I feel that I can’t justify it.”

Lao Bai’s words reminded Dong Qiangqiang that the financial fraud companies he had seen before were mostly taking risks for profit, but Le Bai’s scale was far from that level, so he changed the cold water he wanted to pour from a pot of goodwill to a Yispoon: "First of all, I don't think your plan is impossible to realize, but three years to surpass the British, five years to catch up with the United States, especially the last one, will you take a bigger step? Don't forget that In other words, if you take a long step, it is easy to tear your egg."

Lao Bai was stunned for a second when he heard the words, and then he laughed loudly, and his echoes came from all directions immediately: "Am I walking too fast?"

"The plan is very grand and magnificent. It makes people feel as if they have glimpsed a corner of the beacon tower, and they seem to have seen the whole picture of the rolling Great Wall." Dong Qiangqiang said very sincerely, "But the plan is indeed full of the taste of spoiling the growth of seedlings, don't you? Are you worried that the tragedy of 911/[-] last year will happen again? If it happens again, the tourism industry, which has just shown signs of recovery, will inevitably fall back into the quagmire again. I think you can do it more calmly without financing. There is no need to oppress yourself. It is nothing more than a slower development. .”

"The pessimist is right, and the optimist makes money." Dong Qiangqiang's praise was very useful to Lao Bai, which weakened the strength of Dong Qiangqiang's criticism to a certain extent. Lao Bai interrupted in a firm tone, "To be honest, I really didn't force myself Accepting this condition is difficult and challenging, but the old saying is good: If you follow the law, you can only get the middle. If you follow the middle, you can only get the bottom. Sometimes you have to push yourself, otherwise you will never know your potential. How many."

Although Dong Qiangqiang persuaded the other party in his mouth, he had to admit in his heart that what Lao Bai said was right.Lao Bai is the one who has always influenced him, and he always takes him as a role model consciously or unconsciously.Maybe this is the true meaning of studying abroad, instead of squatting in the library every day to read rote books like him, how stupid you look.

"What I just said is actually just my first phase plan. Lebai will definitely have to raise funds in the future, so I still have ideas for the second and third phases, which are even more ambitious than the first phase. Do you want to hear it?"

"Is there a second stage?" Dong Qiangqiang looked confused.

Lao Bai had a mysterious expression: "My goal in the second stage is to do tourism finance."

Seeing Dong Qiangqiang regaining his puzzled expression again, Lao Bai was even more proud: "There is a kind of hotel in Europe and the United States. This kind of hotel is usually as close to places of interest, shopping villages, and gourmet places. At the same time, it is difficult to get a room during the peak season. Beg, and it's terribly deserted in the off-season."

Dong Qiangqiang had been a tour guide for a while, and he had heard of this kind of hotel, but he didn't understand what Lao Bai wanted to say, so he went straight to the point: "I don't understand what tourism finance is, and tourists generally don't stick to this kind of hotel. The hotel is very expensive and the value for money is too low.”

"Actually, this kind of discounted hotel room rate in the peak season can be very cheap, but we can't get it."

"?"

Lao Bai further explained patiently: "Because the hotel rooms in the peak season are packed and rented out in the off-season, and then sublet them out in the peak season. Of course, the peak season is also included in the month. When the peak season comes, you can rent it out at 100 million yuan, and the money will be doubled directly.”

"Since the money is earned so simply and rudely without any technical content, why doesn't the hotel earn the money by itself? Why do you want to share the cake around your mouth with others?" Dong Qiangqiang didn't want to understand the reasoning, "This It’s not a question of ileconomics, it’s just illogical.”

"Hotel management is very complicated, and labor in Europe is so expensive. Don't look at many hotels that are not popular in peak seasons, but they are really bleak in off-seasons. If you say that they are in a half-dead state, people will believe that they will close down soon, especially terrorist attacks. Finally, the number of tourists is extremely unstable. Compared with doing business with one customer and one customer, some hotels do not reject directly renting to a company, which saves worry and effort, and has good cash flow. You know that European companies generally value cash flow, and hotels can't wait Some people share the risk with it. As for the hotel's income, it is natural to increase the rent to make up for the losses inside the dike and make up for the outside of the dike, so that it is in an invincible position.

"You mean you plan to do the same in the future?" Dong Qiangqiang didn't understand it at first, so he reacted when Lao Bai explained the stakes clearly, but what he didn't understand was why Lao Bai could get such a Hotel 6 month lease.

"If the funds allow, I am certainly willing to try. First of all, this kind of hotel can bring consumers a better experience, and the convenient transportation means that the time spent on the road is shorter, which is equivalent to prolonging the shopping time of customers in disguise. You Think about it, which experience is better if you take customers shopping in the bustling shopping area for 6 hours or take them on a long distance for 3 hours and then rush shopping for 3 hours?" Lao Bai is willing to mention Dong Qiangqiang, after all, he also has Dong Qiangqiang As shown in the picture, "Secondly, it won't take long for domestic tourists to stratify their consumption. Who doesn't care about privacy among rich people? Who wants to play with people they don't know well? You have to think about the consumption psychology of rich people. .”

"I would have understood if you said that earlier," Dong Qiangqiang teased, "Isn't this just providing privileged services to the rich?"

"Everything is art, and service is the way." Seeing Dong Qiangqiang said, Lao Bai immediately clicked on it.

Hearing now, Dong Qiangqiang has a feeling of "scattered flowers gradually becoming charming eyes". It is hard for him to imagine what the third stage of Lao Bai is, but he has already seen one thing clearly, that is, Lao Bai has set aside the next year or even the next year. The development plan for this year has been considered in detail and solidly, and he doesn't need to point fingers and make irresponsible remarks. Does this mean that he can care about the relationship between Lao Bai and Tong Lele?
Just when Dong Qiangqiang wanted to turn the topic to Tong Lele, the two heard the sound of the door opening and closing and the turf being stepped on at the same time.

The two quickly turned to the source of the voice, only to see Lei Lanting striding towards them with a smile like a doorman welcoming a luxury hotel, holding a glass of wine.

The fire and the warmth of the heart were hidden in the wine handed to the two. Lei Lanting looked at the two with a smile on his face, and was about to speak when he heard a female voice behind the three of them: "Come in!"

It was He Yangjin who spoke.

For some reason, the three looked at each other.

Lei Lanting didn't say anything, didn't finish his drink, he shook his hand at He Yangjin who was standing at the door resentfully, with the intention of urging her into the room: "What's the rush? We went in naturally after we finished speaking."

"Hey, I won't be able to see it when it's too late..." He Yangjin understood what Lei Lanting meant when he saw the gesture, and flashed into the room muttering.

"Xiao He doesn't usually do this, and I don't know what happened today." Lei Lanting cleared his throat, and was about to continue talking when Lao Bai patted Dong Qiangqiang's shoulder and pouted towards the living room: "Lele and Lu Wei seems to have come down too, let's go and see what's going on."

Seeing that both of them were walking back, Lei Lanting had no choice but to swallow back what he wanted to say. On the way back to the house, he couldn't help complaining that He Yangjin didn't have eyesight and interrupted the good opportunity he found so hard to speak.

The house was brightly lit, except for Zheng Chunhua, everyone gathered around the TV to watch the breaking news.

"I just jumped out after watching the third part for 10 minutes, and then this is it. I hurriedly called you all in." He Yangjin stared at the TV and explained in a low voice why he called everyone over just now. They all stared intently at the pictures in the news.

A German host in a dark suit is wearing a mask and wandering aimlessly on a street that looks modern and bustling but is deserted.

Everyone held their breaths, the news subtitles at the bottom of the screen had already told everyone that the male host was in a big city in the south of China.

The male host walked away for a few more minutes, and finally saw an old woman with gray hair, who was about to approach him for a conversation. Seeing his white skin and blue eyes, the old woman turned around in horror and ran away, disappearing in a moment.

Unable to find any interviewees, the male host could only speak to the camera unwillingly. Everyone was terrified when they heard the last sentence of the male host.

"In view of the current situation, the German Ministry of Health advises Germans not to travel to this city for tourism and business exchanges in the near future..."

"Old Bai, have you seen or heard of such a thing?" Dong Qiangqiang frowned and stared at the picture on TV and asked, "Does the suggestion from the German Ministry of Health mean that the situation is very serious? Will it affect tourism? ?”

Laobai shook his head solemnly, before he could say anything, the phone in his pocket rang.He looked down at the phone, muttered "Why is she calling now" and left the living room in a hurry.

At this time, everyone in the house also took out their mobile phones and frantically called their relatives in China.

Dong Qiangqiang was no exception, but somehow his mobile phone could not find the net in the house, so he had to put on a down jacket and stand in the yard to play.

While dialing, he recalled the content of the call he had with his mother last night. When he thought of his father and his friends having a fever and cough after drinking, he felt more and more uneasy: Could this symptom be the same as what the German host just said?
No one answered the phone at home, so he remembered that his mother might still be in the hospital, so he hurriedly dialed his mother's cell phone.

For some reason, Dong's mother's mobile phone was always busy, and finally the busy tone disappeared.

Dong Qiangqiang was so anxious that he had no choice but to close his mobile phone, planning to call a close relative in China and ask the other party to help him get in touch.

About half a minute later, when Dong Qiangqiang decided which relative to call, the word "Mom" suddenly appeared on the caller ID on the phone screen.

"Mom, how is Dad? Are you still in the hospital? I watched TV and said that something strange happened in Guangzhou..."

Before Dong Qiangqiang could finish speaking, Dong’s mother’s crying voice came from the phone: “Qiangqiang, your dad suddenly collapsed not long after he left the hospital. Just after 120 arrived, we will send your dad to the hospital right away…”

Dong's mother was still talking, but Dong Qiangqiang couldn't hear a word. He yelled: "Mom, tell me first, where did those classmates of Dad come to see him?"

"It seems to be...Guangzhou." Dong's mother thought for a few seconds before confirming, "Yes, it's Guangzhou. The snack box they gave your dad said 'Guangzhou snacks'."

"Is dad still burning?"

"Oh, speaking of it, the fever went away yesterday. Oh, why is it so hot now? Hey, doctor, what's the matter with his temperature? Didn't it mean that he won't have a fever again?"

Dong Qiangqiang still wanted to say something more, but he was afraid of missing what Dong's mother was talking to the doctor, so he didn't dare to speak out for a while.

And after a flurry of voices came from the phone, the line was disconnected.No matter how Dong Qiangqiang dialed again, the smooth Internet calls in the past were as silent as death.

He tried his best to calm the panic and suffocation rising from his throat, and at the same time, the voice and appearance of his father appeared again in his mind. The handsome man who carried him around his neck and flew a kite with him in high spirits suddenly became a standing man. The middle-aged man who secretly wiped his tears from the customs and watched him walk towards an unknown country, but at this moment, he couldn't see the face that was so familiar and kind to him at all. Wave slowly.

His mobile phone slipped from his hand and sank into the grass under his feet.

go home now.A firm voice whispered in his ear.

Large snowflakes fell silently from the top of his head, and were swept away by a gust of wind, blowing into the vast distance...
