Rebirth: Starting from the Cafeteria

"It's okay. Everyone has to work hard at night. How can we not provide midnight snacks?"

Du Shaojie refused to go back and insisted on waiting until he had a midnight snack before going back to rest.

Wang Yongli and others were helpless. He went to the command center to ask for more life jackets. In addition, the command center also specially allocated two rubber boats.

Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the eventuality.

In fact, if the dam really breaks, these measures can only be said to be better than nothing.

By evening, the rain gradually subsided.

But the flood peak will not disappear suddenly, and it will still pass through the area within the expected time period. Du Shaojie only felt a rumbling sound coming from far away, which made his heart beat faster and his scalp tingle.

He didn't know whether it was a psychological effect or reality, but when he saw the busy figures still on the levee, his heart gradually settled down.

In the evening he cooked ginger soup, several large pots of minced meat and pickled vegetables, and some brown sugar and lard buns.

"Yongli, the rain is easing now, let's deliver it to the people on the dam."

The people on the embankment were struggling desperately. Du Shaojie couldn't just stand by and watch, so he led everyone to carry baskets and walked up the embankment with difficulty.

Let everyone have a sip of hot ginger soup, eat some hot buns and pickles in their busy schedule.

Almost all the catering staff were mobilized, and no one dared to be lazy. After all, Du Shaojie was a giant in the domestic catering industry. If he couldn't even manage these people, it would be too much of an underestimation of him.

"Master Du, please get down quickly. The embankment is dangerous."

The commander-in-chief was also holding his ground on the riverbank. When he saw Du Shaojie leading the food supply staff up, he was somewhat moved.

After everyone had eaten something in turn and drank the ginger soup, he stepped forward to drive them away.

Du Shaojie no longer insisted and led everyone back the same way.

The No. 1 flood peak passed smoothly. Although there were constant dangers, they finally withstood the storm. No one had time to cheer. Many people lay on the muddy ground and fell into a deep sleep.

Du Shaojie, Wang Yongli and others went back to sleep and returned to their work stations at dawn.

morning.

The food provided was white porridge, steamed buns, pickles and a boiled egg per person.

The pickles processed by Du Shaojie were particularly fragrant, and many people's appetites were whetted, so they ate more than usual.

Before they knew it, Du Shaojie and his companions had stayed in this small county town for a week.

Thanks to the county's proper organization and a little bit of luck, the county managed to survive three flood peaks without any major incidents and the riverbank remained intact.

On this day, the rain stopped and the long-lost sunshine came down. Du Shaojie, Wang Yongli and others all laughed happily. They completed the volunteer work, and the county issued a certificate and gave them a reward of commendation.

Du Shaojie and others carefully put away the certificates and began to check the condition of the car.

Fortunately, the hotel had parking space and the car was not soaked by the rain and was in good condition.

Wang Yongli checked out of the hotel, and everyone set off by car. They had a big meal at the small restaurant where they had dined on the first day of their arrival, and then left the county town.

"Boss Du, aren't you afraid? To be honest, even if you don't volunteer, no one will say anything."

Luo Qin asked a soul-searching question in the car. After all, Du Shaojie was not an ordinary person, but a billionaire.

It is said that the richer people are, the more they value their lives. She could not understand the other party's choice.

"If everyone is afraid of death, the dam will definitely collapse. What should we do then? I just happened to be there. If everyone contributes a little, the dam will most likely be saved. This is a simple multiple-choice question, isn't it?"

Du Shaojie seemed to have answered the other party's question, but also seemed not to have answered it.

But Luo Qin understood, so there was something else in her eyes besides admiration.

This time, everyone learned from previous experiences and lessons, specifically checked the weather forecasts in various places, and then changed the route.

Du Shaojie is the type of person who doesn't cause trouble when there is no trouble, and is not afraid of trouble when it happens. Who would make things difficult for him when there is no trouble?
He read the news and found that many places had suffered from floods and heavy economic losses. So he called Meng Gang and asked him to donate 10 million yuan to the disaster area in the name of the catering company.

Individual power is small, but doing something is better than doing nothing.

Du Shaojie and others patrolled along the way, constantly adjusting the route, and went to many unfamiliar places.

He found that there were countless delicious folk delicacies, and as long as you were attentive, you could always find delicious food that would amaze you.

Whether it was Wang Yongli, Luo Qin or the others, they had all become foodies after following their boss for so many years. Their appreciation of food had greatly improved, and even if they only had to cook two dishes, they could cook them well.

Along the way, Du Shaojie also learned how to make special snacks such as [jar vegetables], [wine lees fish], [cured duck], [crispy crucian carp], and [moldy tofu].

The land and water nurture the people, and the eating habits vary greatly from place to place, but there are always some delicious foods waiting for visitors from all over the world.

When he arrived in the capital, the first thing he did was to buy a lot of jars and cans and start replicating the delicious snacks he encountered this time.

There are a few delicacies that cannot be made, such as [moldy tofu], which is a delicious delicacy when made in its place of origin, but may cause food poisoning if made in other places. It is said that this is caused by different climates and bacterial flora.

"Hubby, I know what you're after. You want to be a chef, right? Otherwise, why would you learn so many dishes and snacks? You wish you could learn all the delicious food from all over the country."

Qi Yan "scolded" him with a smile, but she actually felt very proud deep down.

Her man is a man with aspirations, unlike some rich men who want to be a groom every night. She firmly supports men's hobbies, which is much better than getting involved in those bad habits.

"It is possible to learn everything, and there may even be many delicacies that you have never seen in your lifetime. But it doesn't matter. Few people can compare to the roads I have walked and the delicacies I have eaten."

Du Shaojie is not bragging, he has indeed been to many unknown little places.

This is also the reason why he always likes to drive when he goes out for inspection. It would not be so convenient if he takes a plane or a train.

Also, he is rich and has a lot of free time, which most people don't have.

"I see. You are the most carefree, okay? Honey, it's really tiring for you to run around like this. You should just take a plane when you go out. Driving isn't very safe either."

Qi Yan knew that she couldn't convince the other party, but she still tried to persuade him.

Sure enough, Du Shaojie smiled but said nothing and did not respond to the conversation.

He stayed in Beijing for more than half a month, and Sun Zhenguo also came over. [Huanyu Communications] was preparing to sell the paging business in Beijing, which meant that the company's paging business was almost gone.

The company's paging business in Beijing is a big piece of fat meat, and many companies have clearly expressed their intention to acquire it.

"Boss Du, I am going to publicly auction the company's paging business in Beijing this time. The highest bidder will win. After selling the Beijing business, the company's remaining paging business will be sold in a package."

Sun Zhenguo was busy with the transformation of [Huanyu Communications] and gradually monetized the company's paging business.

Liu Zijian is busy developing new businesses. The PHS and mobile phones (feature phones) produced by the company have passed the review and obtained network access certificates.

In Guangdong Province, Dong Yushu's telecommunications company took the lead in launching the "Xiaolingtong" pilot project in Guangzhou, Shenzhen and other places, and the business scope is now expanding to the entire province.

As the first company in China to introduce the "Xiaolingtong" technology from the island country, [Huanyu Communications] has continuously iterated its technology, and has now evolved to version 3.0, completely completing the stages of "introduction", "digestion and absorption", and "independent control".

The feature phones produced by the company currently focus on high cost-performance and are still at a relatively low end.

"Are you afraid that including the Beijing business in the package will affect the auction price? Actually, there is no need to worry. The Beijing business is the most popular item they are determined to get, so it is normal to add some scraps."

This matter is quite important, so Sun Zhenguo specifically reported to Du Shaojie before taking any specific action.

Du Shaojie shook his head and asked the other party to package and process the remaining paging services.

In fact, time is very tight. In a few years, mobile phones will emerge as a new force and pagers will become obsolete.

"Okay, let's make a new plan."

Sun Zhenguo understood and quickly said goodbye and left.

Ten days later, [Huanyu Communications] packaged all of its remaining paging businesses and auctioned them off, and they were eventually purchased at a premium by [Hongyan Paging] owned by Wang Dongxu.

The once-thriving paging industry leader has completely withdrawn from the industry.

With its continuously increasing investment in recent years, Hongyan Paging has become a well-deserved industry leader.

Wang Dongxu's heart was filled with pride. With the full support of the power behind him, he finally defeated his former rival, Huanyu Communications.

Next, he needs to calm down and develop the company for a few years. After all, the company's debt ratio is too high, and he is not able to spare the time to press on.

[Huanyu Communications] has recovered a large amount of funds, and has no pressure in developing new businesses, without any need for capital transfusion from the company's shareholders.

Therefore, after several years of paging wars, it seemed that [Huanyu Communications] ended in failure, but in fact, [Huanyu Communications] has made a gorgeous turn and completed a very important transformation.

With the situation already decided, Du Shaojie left the capital and returned to Guangzhou.

In recent years, mobile phones have gradually entered the sight of ordinary people. Although most people are still waiting and watching, they are no longer out of reach. Back then, a "big brother" could easily cost tens of thousands of yuan, but now mobile phones have dropped to a few thousand yuan.

When thousand-yuan phones sweep the market, the popularization of mobile phones becomes inevitable.

Let Sun Zhenguo and Liu Zijian work hard on [Huanyu Communications] and he just needs to sit back and enjoy the results.

After returning home, Du Shaojie first made a jar of [jar vegetables].

He ate it almost every day in Beijing some time ago, and it has become a must-have for breakfast.

noon.

Du Shaojie made a dish of [Stir-fried Pork Intestines with Pickled Cabbage], a dish of [Steamed Cured Meat], a dish of [Shrimp with Garlic], a dish of [Braised Pork Trotters], and a dish of [Stir-fried Vegetables].

Then I had lunch with Luo Santong. (End of this chapter)
