Reborn in the red age

Chapter 489 This is what a man should do
"Hello, Teacher Li. I used to be a teacher too. So we are in the same line of work."

Jack Ma shook hands with Qingfeng Li enthusiastically, his eyes sparkling with excitement.

Speaking of which, Jack Ma is quite lucky. He was born in an artistic family and was admitted to Hangzhou Normal College to study for a junior college after taking the college entrance examination three times in a row.

After admission, since the undergraduate English major enrollment quota was not filled, in order to complete the further study plan, the Foreign Languages ​​Department of Hangzhou Normal University selected several junior college students with good English performance and transferred them to the Foreign Languages ​​Department to study for the undergraduate degree.

In this way, Jack Ma successfully completed his transition from a junior college student to an undergraduate student. After graduation, he was directly assigned to Hangzhou Institute of Electronic Industry as a lecturer, and thus gained the experience of an English teacher.

Seeing Jack Ma's excitement, as if he had seen his idol, Qingfeng Li was quite proud in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face: "Oh? Really? Then why did Mr. Ma go into the entertainment industry?"

Jack Ma was stunned, and felt that Li Qingfeng's question was simply incomprehensible.

Of course, you go into business to make money. What else can you do? If being a teacher is good, why don't you continue to be a teacher? Why quit your job and start a business?

Although he was thinking this in his heart, Jack Ma said something else: "Teacher Li, I was inspired by you to start my own business. That's why I decided to quit my job and start an Internet company."

"how do I say this?"

Li Qingfeng looked at Jack Ma with great interest, intending to see what he could say.

"It's like this. I set up a translation agency in our local area and it's a little famous. At the end of last year, the Hangzhou government hired me to go to an American investment company to recover the highway investment funds. Who would have thought that it was an international fraud company?"

"They encouraged me to defraud the country's money, but I refused, so they put me under house arrest. I had no choice but to pretend to be compliant, and that's how I got out of that company."

"Before leaving America, I saw the world of the Internet there. When I logged into the Starting Point browser of Lemon Company and used the search function for the first time on the World Wide Web you founded, I was greatly shocked."

As he spoke, Jack Ma's hands kept gesturing in the air, his eyes revealing an excitement that was hard to conceal.

Jack Ma is worthy of being Jack Ma. He is a great eloquent person. In front of so many domestic business tycoons, he is not at all stage fright. He speaks vividly and infectiously. It's a pity that he didn't become a success guru.

Jack Ma made a big splash today. More than 40 people in the conference room looked at him with admiration.

While Jack Ma was talking and attracting everyone's attention, He Guangqin, who was standing next to Li Qingfeng, seized the opportunity and said to Li Qingfeng in a low voice without moving his lips: "Teacher Li, I just checked and found that Jack Ma did not buy a car. He just published a news in the newspaper to express his support for Mercedes-Benz. And..."

These days, the threshold for publishing news in national newspapers is not low. Except for influential large companies, the cost for ordinary small companies to post an announcement in it is not low, and even a small piece of tofu will cost several thousand yuan.

When inviting those companies that openly supported Fei Chi Automobile, He Guangqin subconsciously thought that they were all powerful companies. Since they published the news in the newspaper, they must be powerful companies and would at least place orders for a few cars with Fei Chi Automobile Factory.

Therefore, without doing a background check or verifying the order name with the people from Mercedes-Benz, they just sent the invitation letter to the other party.

When he sent a car to pick someone up in the morning, He Guangqin realized something was wrong after hearing the news from the driver team.

Those who came to attend the banquet today, those who lived far away all came by plane, and they brought their assistants and secretaries with them. Only Jack Ma came alone by train, and he sat on a hard seat, not even a hard sleeper.

This made He Guangqin suspicious. Not only did he go up to talk to Jack Ma in person, he also asked someone to inquire about the situation in Hangzhou.

When the investigation results were fed back, He Guangqin was completely dumbfounded. This was a complete scam!

Things have come to this point. He Guangqin has no choice but to bite the bullet and let Jack Ma stay as he cannot kick the man out in front of so many prominent bosses from all over the country.

Looking at Jack Ma, who was dancing and treating the scene as a podium, Qingfeng Li also said in a low voice without moving his lips: "And what?"

"Moreover, his Haibo Network Company only has him and his wife. The company was established on the same day when the news about Feichi Automobile was spread. The total assets of Haibo Network Company are only 100,000 yuan, and it is said that they borrowed money from everywhere."

As He Guangqin spoke, his voice became so low that it was almost inaudible. If it weren't for Li Qingfeng's good hearing, he wouldn't have been able to hear clearly what he was saying.

After listening to He Guangqin's story, Li Qingfeng's expression did not change at all. He nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

Jack Ma's speech was still going on. When he saw He Guangqin leaning close to Li Qingfeng's ear to talk, he felt a pang in his heart, knowing that he had been exposed.

His expression remained calm as he continued to talk about his experiences in America, his mind working rapidly as he pondered how to deal with the situation.

"I was especially shocked when I watched the video of Professor Li's speech at Stanford University on the computer. You said a few years ago that the Internet will change every aspect of human life, and in the future, everything from food, clothing, housing and transportation can be done on the Internet."

"When I heard your far-sighted remarks, I was so excited that I couldn't control myself. You have described the prospects so clearly and lit a bright light for all mankind on the confusing and unknown road ahead on the Internet."

"After I got out of that fraudulent company in the United States and returned to China, my mind was full of the Internet world I saw there and your vision for the future of the World Wide Web. I thought, I can't just be a bystander, I want to participate and become a promoter of this great change, and create my own world in the Internet field."

"."

Li Qingfeng's mouth twitched. Well, Jack Ma is worthy of being Jack Ma. His brain is really useful.

Realizing that his affairs had been exposed, he changed the subject and stopped talking about the shock he had received in America. Instead, he began to flatter Qingfeng Li secretly, hoping to leave a good impression.

After Jack Ma's speech, Li Qingfeng smiled and did not comment on what Jack Ma said.

After a few simple words of encouragement, he invited everyone to the cafeteria to eat, saying it was time for dinner. The canteen had already been set up, and Li Qingfeng's treat represented Li Qingfeng's face. Huaxin directly sealed the entire cafeteria. Except for Huaxin's technical masters, everyone from senior leaders to middle-level management was not allowed to eat in the canteen, and all went downstairs to eat at the buffet.

The dining arrangements for the guests were also very sophisticated. The private companies that Li Qingfeng liked and that pursued independent research and development were seated very close to him.

Those state-owned enterprises are arranged separately in their own systems, accompanied by Xie Wanmin, secretary of the party group of Huaxin.

As for those comprador companies and health care product scammers, He Guangqin arranged them all to stay in a corner, far away from Qingfeng Li, so that Qingfeng wouldn't lose his appetite when seeing them.

Originally, Jack Ma was supposed to sit at the table in the corner, but Qingfeng Li called him over alone and arranged him at the empty seat at the table next to his own.

Jack Ma was somewhat flattered by Li Qingfeng's sudden arrangement. He quickly nodded to Li Qingfeng with a big smile on his face to express his gratitude. There was a hint of doubt in his eyes, but he did not dare to ask more questions and sat down obediently in the designated seat.

This action surprised many people present. Originally, they had a general understanding of this kid's situation through Jack Ma's narration. Although his eloquence made people admire him more, it was just admiration.

In their hearts, they all looked down on him to some extent. After all, how could a small boss with a net worth of only 100,000 or 200,000 yuan gain the recognition of these people with a net worth of hundreds of millions?

But what Qingfeng Li conveyed to the outside world through this arrangement was that he was very optimistic about this short man with a very recognizable appearance.

Considering Li Qingfeng's status in the high-tech industry, as long as he is willing to give this little guy some support, won't he be able to make great progress in the future?
If Li Qingfeng knew what these people were thinking, he would just say, "Forget it." He had no intention of helping him, so it would be good enough to not step on him and just take over his business.

Jack Ma did do a lot of good things for the people in the early days, but that cannot cover up the fact that he is a capitalist, and his merits and demerits cannot offset each other.

Not to mention that 996 is a blessing, his asset-securitization plan for Ant's listing alone is enough to ruin the good reputation he has accumulated.

With 3 billion of own capital and 300 billion of loan, all of which is the bank's money, and a leverage of 100 times, are you afraid? This is a real way of making money out of nothing, a typical capitalist financial value-added game.

With such high profits, the so-called big data risk control is simply unreliable. Once human greed is unleashed, it cannot be stopped. As long as the project continues to operate, it is only a matter of time before it explodes.

If the financial crisis goes bankrupt, let alone other things, ordinary people who have deposited money on Ant will have to wait in line to withdraw the money to their bank cards, just like the deposit refund of Ofo.

Li Qingfeng didn't care about what everyone thought. After everyone was seated, Qingfeng stood up and spoke the opening thank-you speech he had prepared in advance.

At the dinner table, Li Qingfeng was very considerate in terms of face. No matter who came to toast him, they would drink a glass and he would take a sip. The main thing he did was to be fair and just, without any discrimination.

Those who came to toast had no complaints. Not to mention Li Qingfeng's status, there were so many people present, and if everyone drank a glass, it wouldn't take long for Li Qingfeng to crawl under the table.

Those who can come here all want to get close to Qingfeng Li. If Qingfeng Li really drinks too much, how can they get close? Besides, Qingfeng Li is not completely unwilling to drink. He takes a sip from every glass, which can be regarded as giving everyone enough face.

Jack Ma sat aside, watching the lively scene of toasts, feeling deeply moved. Somehow the words "A real man should be like this" popped up in his mind.

"Mr. Ren, let me introduce you. This is Xu Yuanming, the general manager of Huaxin. Huaxin's latest 0.8-micron production line has been installed and can be put into production at any time."

"Hello, Mr. Xu. Our Huawei chips have always been manufactured by TSMC in Taiwan. The latest batch of chips has been delivered. We are looking for a new foundry. If possible, we can cooperate."

"That's exactly what we wanted. The eight-inch 0.8-micron production line we imported from the United States will start production soon. After it starts production, our Huaxin's output will increase greatly. The current orders cannot meet such a large production capacity. A few days ago, we were still talking about where to find some OEM orders."

After helping to connect Hua Wei and Hua Xin, Li Qingfeng immediately pulled Lu Guanqiu to talk about the car factory.

As the strongest auto parts supplier in China at the time, Wanxiang's strength in the machinery industry is naturally strong.

The universal joints, drive shafts and automotive wheel hub bearing units produced by their company have performed very strongly in the market.

In particular, the universal joint, which is Wanxiang Group's original product, is one of the strongest products, with a market share of over 60 percent in the domestic main engine supporting market, and is exported to Europe, America and Southeast Asia.

"Boss Lu, are you interested in opening a factory in the Northeast? Feichi Automobile plans to put into operation a large-scale automobile production base with an annual output of 300,000 vehicles within three years. By then, the demand for auto parts will increase greatly. Opening a factory in the Northeast can save a lot of costs."

Facing Li Qingfeng's invitation, Lu Guanqiu showed an embarrassed expression on his face: "Teacher Li, you don't know that we responded to the call of the national western development strategy last year and launched the "Westward Plan". We have already begun to investigate investment in the central and western regions. We really don't have the ability to continue investing in the Northeast."

"I admire you so much. While everyone else is going to the south to make money, you're able to respond to national policies and focus on the remote areas of the central and western regions. I'm not as good as you." Li Qingfeng showed an expression of admiration on his face and bowed to Lu Guanqiu.

"No, no, Mr. Li is willing to move the company back to China from the United States. This courage and patriotism are truly admirable."

Li Qingfeng nodded slightly, and did not start a business exaggeration. He raised his glass and clinked it with Lu Guanqiu. After a brief chat about his views on the domestic automobile industry, he stood up and left. He also had a brief chat with the people selling children's drinks and feed.

Li Qingfeng is not the kind of person who is willing to owe favors to others. For companies that publicly expressed their support for Feichi 300, as long as there is a basis for cooperation, Li Qingfeng will repay the favor on the spot.

As for those who were engaged in breeding, Li Qingfeng asked them to provide beef, mutton and pork to the factories of Huaxin's companies. As for those who were engaged in small household appliances, Li Qingfeng asked them to send a batch of household appliances as a reward for advanced employees. As for those who were engaged in clothing, Li Qingfeng asked them to give the company's work clothes customization work to them.

Basically, all the favors that can be repaid have been repaid. As for those who are engaged in feed, real estate in other places, and machinery, there is really nothing we can do.

Their products are really of no use, and they can't ask Li Qingfeng to buy a bunch of feed to raise chickens, right?
