Life 1984

"Why are you so mean? A son of aristocratic family, who is as uneducated as you? It is said that nobles come from three generations, are nobles like you? My brother said that we were a family five hundred years ago, but he just said a common saying, guest It’s just a cliché! You don’t really think that he wants to get in touch with your family, do you? My brother is a billionaire, so does he need to get in touch with anyone?”

Chen Meilin is from Xiangjiang, so why does she care about Li Shuangquan's background? It doesn't matter what the other person's status is, as long as he dares to say something wrong about Li Yunhai, he will be immediately rendered speechless.

The words she said were what Li Yunhai wanted to say but did not say.

It’s not that I don’t dare, it’s that I don’t think it’s necessary.

When he was young, Li Yunhai used to be unscrupulous, defying the sky, the earth, and the air.

But now, he has too many fears. I am afraid that my family will be retaliated against, and my company will be plotted against me.

He now keeps a low profile, is kind to others, and gets some backstabbing from time to time.

What's the benefit of really falling out with the Li family?
It's just one more family enemy.

So he also smoothed his edges and hid his edge.

Li Shuangquan finished patting the table and sneered: "Li Yunhai, are you deliberately bringing an inexperienced little girl to make me angry?"

Li Yunhai suddenly burst into laughter and said: "Yes, I just want you to experience my pain. Didn't you send Sun Lu to me on purpose to make a young and unreliable little girl angry with me? We are now Evened out!"

Li Shuangquan was stunned and speechless.

Sun Lu looked at Li Yunhai and then at her second uncle. She felt that if the quarrel continued, the two families would really turn against each other. She was the only one who could save this situation, so she smiled sweetly and said: "Mr. Li, you are really funny. It seems like Is it really hard for you to tolerate me? Even I hate myself like this!"

She smiled again and said to Li Shuangquan: "Second uncle, don't you think so? Our eyes can see the distant stars and sea, but we can't see our own eyelashes. I always find fault with others, but I don't know myself. That’s the most annoying person.”

Li Shuangquan slowly exhaled a breath and said in a deep voice, "Yes! Today you have to thank Mr. Li for teaching you the most wonderful lesson."

He was secretly surprised that Li Yunhai was so young yet so experienced and well versed in human relations. He should not be underestimated!

If the stalemate continues, it will not be beneficial to both parties, so Li Shuangquan will just give up and stop embarrassing Li Yunhai and Chen Meilin.

Li Yunhai invited them to this meal with a purpose. He continued the previous topic and said: "Our two families are partners now. Even if we cannot sincerely support each other, we should not secretly plot against each other. This is how we get along. The export quota of computers is indeed important to us, but if it doesn’t exist, it doesn’t matter to us. We have a branch in Xiangjiang and can assemble and export it there!”

Li Shuangquan's face froze and he admitted that Li Yunhai was right.

"Mr. Li, this is the first time I have heard of the export quota you are talking about. It is even less likely that we will deliberately embarrass you and reduce your export quota. I think there must be some misunderstanding here." Li Shuangquan denied it.

No one can take the initiative to admit that they have done something bad.

Li Yunhai smiled calmly and said: "There is no best. Since it is a misunderstanding, just eliminate it."

Li Shuangquan nodded slowly in agreement.

After dinner, the two parties went downstairs together and parted at the door.

Li Yunhai took Chen Meilin away and went to the casino to gamble.

Sun Lu stood pretty in the wind, tightened her collar, and said: "Second uncle, don't underestimate Li Yunhai. He is really powerful. He is the most powerful young man I have ever seen. There is no descendant of our Li family." Comparable to him."

Li Shuangquan said: "I have learned a lesson today. No wonder he can make his career so big. He is indeed extraordinary."

Sun Lu asked: "Second uncle, who is behind the export quota he mentioned? With the strength of Sihai Group, most people can't frame him."

Li Shuangquan smiled bitterly: "Who else could it be? Your playful and noisy uncle!"

"Ah, are we really plotting against him behind his back? Isn't this necessary? For what?" Sun Lu felt quite speechless.

Li Shuangquan said: "A small punishment but a big punishment! Forget it, this matter is over. This kind of thing is just a joke. For Li Yunhai, it can't hurt his muscles or move his bones."

Sun Lu said: "Second uncle, you should tell me not to play with fire anymore! We have already cooperated with Lianxiang Company, so let's develop Lianxiang Company well and stop worrying about Sihai Group. We can't become fat in one breath, really. If everything is monopolized by us, other families may not be able to stand it.”

Li Shuangquan nodded calmly: "Sun Lu, you have grown up."

Sun Lu smiled and said, "I learned from Li Yunhai. He is very charming and can always influence the people around him."

"You don't like this kid anymore, do you? He is a married man, so you can't be stupid."

"That's not the case. He is always angry with me, so I won't like him! I just admire him."

"That's good!"

Sun Lu pursed her lips and looked at Li Yunhai's retreating back, her eyes becoming resentful and deep.

Casino lobby on the first floor of the hotel.

Li Yunhai and Chen Meilin came to the betting table.

Chen Meilin performed well today. She not only helped Li Yunhai place orders, but also helped him scold people. She was a major contributor.

Li Yunhai cashed in ten thousand US dollars in coins for her and let her play with it.

Chen Meilin was lucky today and won more than 30,000 US dollars.

But in the end she wanted to make a big bet and bet all the money she won, but ended up losing it all.

Chen Meilin groaned, took the money in her hand, and said, "Oh, forget it, I won't play anymore."

Li Yunhai smiled and said: "You can stop in time and keep costs, which is better than many people. Even I can't do it as freely as you."

"Hee, is it true? Brother, are you praising me?"

"Of course I'm complimenting you! Okay, let's go back to the room to rest. We have another tiring day tomorrow!"

"All right!"

They cashed in their chips and went back to their rooms.

Lu Liansheng sat at a gambling table in the corner and kept observing Li Yunhai.

After Li Yunhai left, he walked to a deserted place, took out his mobile phone and made a call.

As a result, the call could not be made.

Lu Liansheng had a premonition that something was wrong and quickly dialed another number.

"Old Hui, what's going on? The killer you introduced took my money, but he can't be found?"

"You mean Tony? He committed a crime and is wanted by the police. He is temporarily hiding."

"Hey, he charged me $50,000! But he just left without firing a shot? How do you settle this account?"

"What does it have to do with me? I'm just an intermediary, introducing you to each other. I don't know how you negotiated. Your money was given to him but not to me! This is a matter between you and Tony. You go find it. He solves it."

"Hey, where should I find him?"

"How do I know? This has nothing to do with me."

"Wait a minute, I haven't finished my work yet, what should I do?"

"Either you find Tony, or I introduce you to another one."

"You still want to charge me $50,000?"

"You are such a big boss, you don't care about such a small amount of money, do you? Others are working hard for you with their heads on their shoulders! It is also illegal to kill someone in the United States!"

"Okay, okay, I've been tricked by you! Introduce me to someone reliable this time!"

"Okay, don't worry! The introduction fee is 5000 US dollars. Thank you, boss. Where are you? I'll send someone over to connect with you."

Lu Liansheng put down the phone and kicked the wall several times.

Half an hour later, a young man wearing a peaked cap came to Lu Liansheng.

"Boss Lu, right? Brother Hui asked me to come here. The introduction fee is 5,000, and the killer fee is 50,000. The total is 55,000, Chenghui." The peaked hat's eyes were cold and fierce.

Lu Liansheng said: "Are you a killer? Can you do it?"

"Any finger can do it, it depends on whether you dare. How about you do it yourself? I'll sell you the gun for only 50,000."

"What a fool!" Lu Liansheng was heartbroken and took out another fifty-five thousand dollars and handed it to the peaked hat.

"Wait a minute," Lu Liansheng held the money firmly and said, "You still don't know who the person I want to kill is! Come here tomorrow and I will show you and give you the money."

The peaked hat took out a photo from his arms and showed it to Lu Liansheng: "Is this the person?"

Lu Liansheng saw the photo of Li Yunhai and said with a smile: "Oh, I didn't realize that you are so professional! Okay, it's him!"

"I know! Wait for my good news?"

"What's your last name, a strong man?"

"What? You still want to invite me to tea?"

"No, I don't dare. Walk slowly, strong man."

The peaked hat left in a hurry and got into a car that had been waiting outside.

"Brother Hui, I got the $55,000."

"Very good. You take five thousand dollars and go to Los Angeles for a few days. I'll let you come back and you can come back. Remember, the phone cannot be turned on."

"Brother Hui, you really don't want to kill anyone? Can you do that? We already collected 110,000 US dollars from that man named Lu."

"Murder is a capital crime! Do you want to die?" "No."

"Isn't that right? It's a crime to lie to others, but it's not a crime that leads to death. The man named Lu is here for tourism and will return to China in a few days. Where can he find us?"

"It makes sense, Brother Gray is still better."

"I'll take you to the airport."

"Thank you, Brother Hui. I only said a few words and earned five thousand dollars."

"Stop talking nonsense! Be strict with your mouth."

"Understood, Brother Gray."

Lu Liansheng went back to the casino to gamble.

He never dreamed that he would be deceived by the same person one after another.

Let's say that after Li Yunhai returned to the room, he told Lin Zhi the results of the negotiation with Li Shuangquan.

Lin Zhi said: "They must have done it, otherwise my dad wouldn't have said that. But their denial is tantamount to showing weakness. As long as they don't make things difficult for us in the future, let's forget about it!"

Li Yunhai called and communicated with Lin Zhenbang.

Lin Zhenbang said that as long as you have an agreement, it is better to resolve enemies than to make enemies. It is always a good thing to have one more friend and one less enemy.

Li Yunhai didn't care about himself and stopped worrying about this matter.

Lin Zhi didn't like watching American TV programs. Suddenly there were no children around, and she felt unaccustomed to it, and it felt so empty.

Fortunately, Li Yunhai was with her, otherwise she wouldn't be able to stay abroad for a day.

A home of gold and silver is not as good as your own villa.

The next morning, Li Yunhai and others came to the CES exhibition hall.

The weather is good today, and the number of people coming to the exhibition has also increased a lot.

The exhibition hall of Meihua Mobile Phones was packed with people as soon as it opened.

Li Yunhai was very curious. How was the business of other showrooms selling mobile phones?
He and Professor Ni went out for a walk and found the Nokia exhibition hall specifically.

There were a lot of people in Nokia's showroom, but it was far from overcrowded.

Professor Ni smiled and said: "Mr. Li, are you satisfied now? Our plum phone beats Nokia 1011! They still want to file a lawsuit with us! As a result, their reputation has been destroyed."

The two strolled in.

The sales girl for Nokia mobile phones came forward to receive her.

Li Yunhai asked: "Are the mobile phones you produce selling well?"

The salesman said: "It's not bad!"

Li Yunhai said: "The sales target set by your headquarters is 40 units. How many have been sold now?"

The salesman exclaimed: "How do you know?"

Li Yunhai said: "I am in the mobile phone business. I know some things about the mobile phone industry."

"I don't know exactly how many units have been sold now. There are always tens of thousands of units. The sales volume of our mobile phone is really good. Sir, do you want to take the goods back and sell them?"

"Let me see again!" Li Yunhai thought to himself, because of my existence, Nokia has changed.

It seems that Nokia can only achieve their goal of 40 mobile phones!

The huge market that originally belonged to Nokia has been snatched away by Li Yunhai.

Can Meihua mobile phones create miracles? Can it sell more than 20 million units?

The salesperson regarded him as a dealer visiting the exhibition and kept selling to him.

Li Yunhai asked a few questions casually, tried the 1011 phone and left.

Professor Ni said: "I didn't expect Nokia to sell so little! It doesn't sell as much as our Meihua mobile phone! Boss, our brand has become famous abroad!"

"This is a good thing!" Li Yunhai said, "In the electronics industry, we should make more efforts!"

While talking, I came to the showroom of Lianxiang Company.

There were only a few sparse foreign businessmen visiting inside.

Lianxiang's product line is not rich enough.

They have been helping people make wedding dresses and acting as agents for other people's products.

First, it sold IBM computers. Because IBM was trying to kill itself by producing an incompatible computer, sales fell to the bottom.

After even thinking about it, I couldn't do it anymore, so I quickly abandoned IBM and sold AST.

Later, they discovered that no matter how much they sold, they were still helping others make money, and they would never become a real technology company.

So they made up their mind and established their own computer brand.

However, most of the components of Lianxiang Computer are purchased from abroad, because in addition to having the ability to design motherboards, they do not have the ability to produce chips and memory.

The core technology is still in the hands of others.

Li Yunhai once promoted Sihai Group's chips, memory, graphics cards and other products to them, regardless of previous suspicions.

He had no choice but to think about the company's prejudice against him, which had long been ingrained and refused to purchase parts from Sihai Group.

The two families could not cooperate, so they had no choice but to become strangers.

Now the Li family has invested in Lianxiang Company.

Li Yunhai felt that this might be an opportunity.

For businessmen, interests are always the most important. Love, hate, and grudges can be put aside for the time being.

Li Yunhai is very optimistic about the future development of Lianxiang Company. After all, this is a memory from his previous life.

At this moment, when he and Professor Ni passed by Lianxiang Company, they were a little surprised to see that the business inside was so deserted.

"Can you even imagine that the company's business is so bad?" Li Yunhai asked.

Professor Ni said with a matter-of-fact expression: "Their business has never been very good. There is still a market in China, but who pays for it abroad? If you buy their products, you might as well buy Dell."

Li Yunhai said: "Speaking of which, I haven't paid attention to their development for a long time, and I don't know how they are doing now."

Professor Ni said: "They still have some foundation. They made a lot of money by acting as agents for IBM and AST before. With this money, they will have the capital to make a lot of efforts. Do you want to go in and take a look?"

Li Yunhai nodded.

The two entered the door and saw Li Shuangquan chatting with several employees.

Even the chairman and CEO of Xiangxiang Company would not go to this kind of exhibition in person.

Li Yunhai is different. Whenever he is free, he will take action.

Because he attaches great importance to sales!
Now the company's production and sales are on the right track. Li Yunhai also participates in exhibitions much less frequently.

If it weren't for the Meihua mobile phone exhibiting at the exhibition this year, he wouldn't bother to come.

"Academician Ni!" Li Shuangquan stood up and said with a smile, "Rare guest! Please take a seat."

He said hello to Li Yunhai again.

Li Yunhai nodded slightly and said, "I'm passing by here and come in to see if your business is okay?"

Li Shuangquan smiled bitterly: "It's just so so. I've looked around everywhere and I always feel that my own products don't have much features and lack core competitiveness."

Li Yunhai thought to himself that this man still has some thoughts. Although he has a temper, he is not a fool after all.

"You are right. What you lack is core competitiveness. The main components of your computers are purchased from abroad, and the cost remains high. Compared with foreign brands, you have no quality advantage, and compared with domestic brands, you have no price advantage. ”

Li Yunhai is reminding the other party that you should purchase goods from China!

Li Shuangquan is a smart man. He understood and said: "After we bought shares in Lianxiang Company, I once raised this question, why don't we purchase chips, memory and graphics cards domestically? Do we have to let foreigners earn more of our money? You Guess what they said? They said domestic products are not good!”

Professor Ni smiled and said: "Since the domestic ones are not good, what other domestic brands do you still produce? Just continue to sell goods for foreign brands!"

Li Shuangquan said: "Yes! But I can't make the decision on this kind of thing. Even if there is a meeting to discuss it, they still make up the majority. My opinion is for reference only."

Li Yunhai knew that what he said was the truth, so he said: "I have an idea. It doesn't have to be all imported from abroad, and it doesn't have to be all purchased from China. We can launch a few more different models. We will see which models sell well. , don’t you know?”

Li Shuangquan groaned, clapped his hands and said, "As expected of Mr. Li, you are so awesome! Why didn't I think of this compromise? I will tell them when I return to China. No, I will tell them now!"

The Li family has invested in Lianxiang Company, but it is not so easy to control the management and operation rights of the company.

Li Shuangquan also needs something to prove himself.

He felt that cooperating with Sihai Group might be an excellent opportunity for him to fight back. (End of chapter)
