Counterattack 1988

Chapter 989 Two Stories
These pencils and erasers were all picked out by the salesperson from the counter. The pens were the best "Zhonghua brand" pencils. The pencils were colored. There were four envelopes in total, each with ten pieces. The erasers were four red art erasers. It is packaged in an earth-colored paper.

After the old man bought it, he gave it to Wang Lin's son Wang Wen.

He said to the salesperson again: "I'll buy another copy for my grandson at home."

The salesperson quickly agreed, picked some more, and put the wrapped pencils and erasers into plastic bags and handed them to the old man.

The old man smiled and said, "Thank you."

He touched his pocket to pay, but there was no money in his pocket.

His daughter handed him 10 yuan.

The old man smiled and said, "I haven't spent money myself for decades."

Everyone smiled kindly.

The old man left the stationery counter with a plastic bag containing pencils and erasers.

Accompanied by the old man, Wang Lin visited the entire Axiu Square.

"The changes in Shanghai make me feel gratified." The old man said, "Especially the establishment of Aixiu Plaza is a milestone for Shanghai. Your Aixiu Group is developing well! Comrade Wang Lin, You have arranged the employment of more than 23 people, and your contribution is indispensable! If every industry can produce a Wang Lin, then our industry, agriculture, and financial industry can all develop!"

Wang Lin said modestly, I also caught up with the good times of reform and opening up.

The old man said: "Shencheng is our trump card, and building up Shencheng is a shortcut!"

Yes, if the Yangtze River is a giant dragon that stretches for thousands of miles and is ready to fly, then Shencheng, located at the mouth of the Yangtze River, is the leader.

From his unique perspective, the old man saw the advantages of Shanghai in opening up to the outside world, such as geographical location, traffic conditions, human resources, natural resources, as well as historical accumulation, connections and experience with international exchanges, etc.

On the chessboard of my country's opening up to the outside world, the old people regard the development and opening up of Pudong as an important chess piece.

Wang Lin invited the old man to visit the headquarters of Aishu Group.

The old man and his party followed Wang Lin to the elevator and arrived at Wang Lin's office.

Wang Lin arranged for the secretary to make tea for everyone.

The old man sat on the sofa and said: "We need to analyze the problem with a macro-strategic perspective and come up with specific measures. Opportunities must be seized and decisions must be made in a timely manner. For example, arresting Shencheng is a big measure. Shencheng can no longer be a defender. To be a pioneer, to become the leader of the Yangtze River Delta and the Yangtze River Basin, to be the vanguard of reform and opening up, and the pioneer of innovation and development! Grasp the development and opening up of Pudong, and don't waver until it is completed. Wang Lin, you can take another step. Get bigger, seize the opportunity, and grow into a world-class company, you must have the confidence and ability to compete with those top [-] foreign companies!"

Wang Linlian claimed that it was true, saying that my steps were big enough, and if I ran too fast, I was afraid that I would accidentally fall.

The old man said: "Don't be afraid of wrestling. The most special meaning of reform is that there are often no preset abstract goals, and there is no road paved with flowers. Reforms are all forced by reality. Although there are no beautiful words, no earth-shattering , exciting scenes, but it actually solves the problem. If you fall down, just get up and walk."

The bones of Wang Lin's body suddenly became lighter, and he said boldly: "With your encouragement, I will make persistent efforts and forge ahead."

The old man said: "Many people in Shencheng have a catchphrase, saying that Shencheng can't be done well. I want to tell you that the road is made and created. There is no problem that can stump the reformer-as long as you are dedicated to Before. Wang Lin, you have to be the pioneer, and you have to set up confidence and an example for the people of Shencheng to reform and open up!"

"Yes, I have been working hard." Wang Lin thought to himself, the old man suddenly came to Aishiu Group and said so many words, is there any deep meaning?
The old man said: "Some people say that Wang Lin is a rich man who has lived the life of a capitalist!"

Hearing this, Wang Lin was suddenly startled!

I copy!

Who sued me?

Have they all been reported to the old man?
Isn't this killing people?
I just don't know what kind of complaints that person has filed?

How much of Wang Lin's privacy does the person who complained know?
In this era, if someone really wants to make his name, it is really too easy.

Metaphysical problems are the most deadly.

Wang Lin said: "Grandpa, I am a rich man, but I am not unkind. The money I earn is all through my own hard work, and I am also working hard to give back to the society."

The old man smiled slightly and patted Wang Lin's arm: "I've heard a story about two poor and rich people. Are you interested in hearing it?"

Wang Lin quickly said: "I would like to hear the details."

The old man told two stories.

The first story is about a poor man whose family was very poor. Seeing his pity, a rich man became kind and wanted to help him get rich.The rich man gave him a cow and told him to open up wasteland well, and sow seeds when spring came, so that he could stay away from that poor character in autumn.The poor began to struggle with hope.But within a few days, cows have to eat grass and people have to eat. Life is more difficult than before.

The poor thought, why not sell the cattle and buy a few sheep, kill one to eat, and the rest can give birth to lambs, which can be sold when they grow up, so that they can make more money.The poor man's plan came true, but after eating a sheep, the lamb was not born for a long time, and life was difficult again, so he couldn't help but eat another one.

The poor thought, if things go on like this, it’s better to sell the sheep and buy them into chickens. The chickens lay eggs faster, and the eggs can make money immediately, and life can improve immediately.The poor man's plan came true again, but the life did not change. It was difficult again, and he couldn't help but kill the chicken. When only one chicken was left, the poor man's ideal completely collapsed.

He thought, getting rich is hopeless, he might as well sell the chicken, drink a jug of wine, drink three cups, everything will be fine.Soon spring came, and the kind-hearted rich man sent seeds with great enthusiasm, only to find that the poor were drinking with pickles, the cows had long since disappeared, and the house was still impoverished.

The rich man turned and left.The poor are still poor.

Many poor people have had dreams, even opportunities, and actions, but it is difficult to persevere to the end.

After the old man finished telling the story, he pointed to Wang Lin and said to the people around him, "Wang Lin is the rich man. He is the one who can persevere in one thing. So he can succeed and become a rich man."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

The old man said: "A few years ago, treasury bonds were just opened for trading. There are many people in this industry, but why is it that only Wang Lin made his wealth bigger by virtue of this business?"

The crowd fell into contemplation.

The old man told a second story.

There was a poor man who cried bitterly because he didn't have enough food and clothing, and told God about the hardships of life. He was exhausted from working every day but couldn't earn much money.After crying for a long time, he suddenly began to complain: "This society is too unfair. Why should the rich be leisurely and carefree every day, while the poor should suffer and suffer every day?"

God smiled and asked, "How do you feel it's fair?"

The poor hurriedly said: "Let the rich be as poor as I am, and have the same jobs. If the rich are still rich, I won't complain anymore."

God promised him and turned a rich man into a poor man as poor as a poor man.They also gave their family a mountain, and the coal dug up every day can be sold to buy food on the same day, and the coal mountain will be dug up within one month.

The poor dig like the rich. The poor are used to doing rough work, and coal digging is a piece of cake for him.Soon he dug a load of coal and sold it in the market for some money. With the money, he bought all the delicious food and took it home to satisfy his wife and children.The rich man has never done heavy work, and he was sweating profusely after stopping for a while. In the evening, he barely dug a cart and pulled it to the market to sell. In exchange for the money, he only bought a few hard steamed buns. All the money stayed.

The next day the poor got up early and started digging coal, but the rich went to the market.After a while, two poor men were brought back. These two poor men started to dig coal for the rich man without saying a word.The rich man sells the coal and hires a few coolies. In addition to paying the workers wages, the rest of the money he earns is several times more than that of the poor.

A month passed quickly, and the poor only dug a corner of the coal mountain, and bought delicious food and drink with the money they earned every day, and there was basically nothing left.But the rich man had already commanded the workers to dig up the coal mountain and made a lot of money. He invested the money to start a business, and soon became a rich man again.

As you can imagine, the poor no longer complain.

The old man said: "Einstein once said that it is harder to change a person's fixed thinking than to separate an atom. This shows how firm a person's thinking mode is, just like we often say that the country is easy to change. , nature is hard to change. Because people’s way of thinking is too firm, they always think about problems with fixed thinking, and often they can’t see the answer from the other side.”

After hearing these two stories, Wang Lin's hanging heart finally fell.

Although the old man did not comment positively on other people's reports, he expressed his handling opinions through these two stories.

"Everyone's opportunities are equal. Wang Lin was born in a worker's family. His opportunities are no more than others, and his starting line is no higher than others. But he has his own thinking of a rich man, and he can make a fortune. There are a lot of things. No one can compare. In our country, there are not too many rich people like Wang Lin, but too few!"

The old man said earnestly: "I hope that there will be more people like Wang Lin in the country. It is best for everyone to be Wang Lin. Everyone can become rich and live a prosperous life. Then, our country will become truly prosperous and strong." Already!"

Wang Lin was moved to tears.

He really didn't expect that the old man cared and loved him so much, and understood him so much!

The rarest thing among people is to be understood.

It's a good thing that Wang Lin lived the life of a rich man. It's not a question of whether his surname is Zi or She, it's not a question!If anyone can arrange employment for 23 people, he can live the life of a rich man.As long as he has this ability, it's not a problem!Rich people abroad, they drive private jets and own private yachts. Their lives are richer than Wang Lin's. I hope that one day, Wang Lin can also live such a life.

This sentence set the tone for Wang Lin's status as a rich man.

Many people at the scene had heard the old man's words, and they naturally had a better understanding of Wang Lin.

Every time the old man came to Shanghai, he would inspect Wang Lin's factory or summon Wang Lin.

The implications here are profound.

The old man has no friendship with Wang Lin, and he doesn't need to protect Wang Lin.

But Wang Lin is a banner of reform and opening up in Shanghai!
Wang Lin was the first person to become a millionaire by doing treasury bill business.

Wang Lin is also the first example of successful cooperation between private enterprises and state-owned enterprises, and has arranged employment for more than 20 people.

If such a person falls down, the reform of Shencheng will face accusations and doubts, and the road to reform will become more tortuous.

All of Wang Lin's actions were in response to the policy and followed the policy.

It should be a good thing to be able to make a fortune by following the policy, and it should not be a target of attack.

Wang Lin's success is due to his ability. He can live the life of a rich man as a commoner, which just proves that the road to change is correct!

The development of Shanghai affects the development of the whole country and the hearts of the elderly.

The old man did this not to protect Wanglin, but to protect the results of the reform!
Of course Wang Lin also understood this level.

Anyway, he is finally safe.

In the past few years, because of his rapid development, he must have offended many people.

The slander and criticism against him certainly never stopped.

It's just that there are some things that he doesn't know.

After the old man left, Wang Lin couldn't calm down for a long time.

He sat in the office, reminiscing about the two stories the old man told for a long time.

In fact, Wang Lin did not deeply analyze the reasons for his success.

He always thought that most of his success was due to taking advantage of his rebirth.

However, those two stories unearthed something deeper.

Wang Lin thought about it carefully, and it was true.

One is because of my persistence.

The second is because of your own thinking.

There are many people buying and selling treasury bonds, but Wang Lin is the most persistent one.

Moreover, at the beginning, no matter how much money he earned, he would put it into the next round of making money, and never enjoyed the luxurious life of the rich.

It wasn't until he had two million dollars that he spent hundreds of thousands to buy a car.

Before that, he was reluctant to spend money, and even dared to borrow money to invest.

This persistence and saving is not something everyone can do.

Even now, Wang Lin's life is actually not extravagant.

Under Li Wenxiu's management, the family's expenses have been greatly reduced, and the food and supplies at home are not much better than those of ordinary families.

After all, neither Wang Lin nor Li Wenxiu are ordinary workers. At their level, they can certainly enjoy a higher and better quality of life.

Next, Wang Lin can devote all his energy to the new business layout and business war.

In 1992, it was destined to be unusual for Wang Lin!

From March, he will have a hard fight!
