Rebirth: Starting from the Cafeteria

Qi Yan thought her husband was joking. She couldn't see things that far ahead. She only knew that there was still a big gap between China and foreign countries.

[Beichen Education] has invested heavily in English teaching, so the returns are naturally huge.

She didn't quite believe that there would be so many foreigners willing to learn Chinese in the future, and just thought of it as Du Shaojie's beautiful expectation.

After 20 days of traveling in Europe, the family returned to China smoothly. Due to visa issues, he only brought Wang Yongli and Xu Youlian with him this time, and they did not encounter any troubles during the entire trip.

As soon as she came back, Qi Yan received good news.

The company's stock price soared, rising significantly in just a few days, and the current stock price has exceeded HK$85.

She rushed back to Beijing with her daughter. In view of the rapid rise in the company's stock price, she planned to launch a new round of financing, continue to conquer the city and make her competitors despair.

Qin Group reduced its holdings of some Beichen Education shares in stages, and the company's financial situation has further improved.

The commercial complex project he is cooperating with Du Shaojie and others in Shenzhen is progressing rapidly and has now entered the interior decoration stage and is expected to be completed.

"Ajie, I've noticed that your investments are becoming more and more diverse. Is this really a good idea? If it were me, I would definitely not be able to grasp it and might end up falling into a big trap."

Yu Mo went to Yangcheng for work and had a meal with Du Shaojie.

The meal was eaten at home. Du Shaojie cooked a few Sichuan dishes himself and the two of them enjoyed the meal very much.

While eating, Yu Mo talked about a recent investment lawsuit and felt very emotional.

"So you are suitable for doing business. It is really amazing that [Dongsheng Electronics] has flourished in your hands."

Du Shaojie did not respond to the other party's words and stated a fact.

[Dongsheng Electronics] first acquired [Deshixin Technology] in Bangkok, and then successfully listed in the domestic market, and the company achieved leapfrog development.

Today, the company has become a domestic leader in the PCB field, and is also expanding into areas such as discrete devices and power semiconductors.

The industry's dominant position is very obvious.

Du Shaojie has two main businesses. The basic business is naturally the catering industry, and the other is investment.

In fact, he is not an investment genius, nor is he a leader in this industry. It’s just that he has lived two lives and knows the future development direction too well, and he has memorized one “trend vent” after another in his mind.

Therefore, he is essentially using a "cheat device" in his investment. After five or ten years, everyone will find that his vision is so terrifying that he can be called the "God of Investment."

"Let's not talk about this anymore. Come on, let's do one."

After listening to what he said, Yu Mo couldn't help but smile, and then he and the other party drank a full glass.

She doesn't have many worries now. If she has to give an example, it's the unsatisfactory stock price of the company.

The mainland stock market is in a slump, and the share price of [Dongsheng Electronics] has also fallen a lot. However, Yu Mo does not intend to learn from Qi Yan. She will not start the repurchase plan for the time being unless the situation is already very dangerous.

After dinner, Du Shaojie sent Yu Mo to the hotel and then returned to the old street.

"Luo Qin, please prepare some information. I want to know the stock price performance of [Dongsheng Electronics] in the past six months."

Du Shaojie has always paid little attention to Cai Jing's real estate company and Yu Mo's electronics company.

When he heard Yu Mo talking about share repurchases today, he suddenly wanted to know more about it.

"Okay, Mr. Du, I'll give it to you tomorrow morning."

Luo Qin agreed and continued to work.

the next day.

Du Shaojie took the information compiled by Luo Qin and read it carefully.

He found that the share price of [Dongsheng Electronics] was completely drifting with the tide and was seriously out of touch with the company's fundamentals. Fortunately, Yu Mo had no intention of raising funds again, otherwise he would have suffered a lot.

Yu Mo and Qi Yan are simply two extremes. Qi Yan cares too much about the company's stock price, while Yu Mo doesn't care at all.

"Forget it, the company has been developing well, Yu Mo can do whatever he wants."

In the end, Du Shaojie gave up the idea of ​​persuading Yu Mo and decided to wait until later.

After breakfast, he went to the provincial association and stayed in his office honestly for the whole morning.

He is a vice president who basically doesn't care about anything. He often doesn't show up and no one would say anything to him. But not long after he arrived today, a staff member brought him a notice that the association would hold a board meeting in three days.

There was only one topic for the meeting, which was to hold a cooking competition, and some details needed to be discussed.

Du Shaojie had no interest in such a competition, but since the meeting notice had been sent to him, he had no choice but to participate.

As a result, on the day of the meeting, he regretted coming. At the meeting, everyone was busy fighting for their own interests, which made him think of the metaphor of "dividing the cake".

Many people were arguing with each other, and the president had no choice but to hand over the leadership of this work to Du Shaojie.

Du Shaojie had no way to shirk it. After all, he was also the vice president. He couldn't just do nothing all year round, right? However, if he took this job, it would be like sitting on the edge of a volcano. It was really difficult to balance the interests of these people.

If you are not careful, you will offend everyone.

"President, you can let me be in charge of this competition, but I have a request. I must have the power to select the judges. If I can't do that, you can choose other capable people." Du Shaojie couldn't take care of the interests of everyone, so he just handled it impartially and all contestants would speak based on their abilities.

If you have the ability, you will get first place; if you don’t, you will be eliminated. It’s that simple.

"Okay, I agree to your request."

The president was overjoyed to see that the other party was willing to share the pressure with him.

He readily agreed to the other party's request and then adjourned the meeting.

Du Shaojie was suddenly pushed to the forefront of public opinion and had offended people invisibly.

However, for him, if he was offended, he was offended. Why would he be afraid of this? At worst, if no one voted for him in the next election, he would not be the vice president.

After a period of preparation, the competition officially started.

These judges were carefully selected by Du Shaojie, and each of them has a great reputation in the industry. The competition strictly follows the rules, and the capable ones are promoted and the mediocre ones are demoted. No one can make a request.

No wonder some people lamented that this might be the "cleanest" competition he had ever seen.

The competition was very successful, with two local media outlets giving it a lot of positive coverage and attracting a lot of attention.

But Du Shaojie not only did not get any benefits, but also was hated by many people. If this trend continues, his position as vice president may not be stable.

He doesn't care. With his current position, it doesn't really matter whether he is the vice president of the provincial association or not.

When he got home, Luo Santong arrived right after he walked in.

"Boss Du, is it hard to get along with the Provincial Association? The Provincial Association is not as united as the Municipal Association. There is a lot of intrigue."

Luo Santong knew Du Shaoji's situation very well. He came here in such a hurry just to persuade him not to fall out with everyone.

It's just a competition, it's not that important. If we think of a way, we can still win over a lot of people.

"The city association is united? If it weren't for the cold storage that tied most of us together, we would have been torn apart long ago. I'm speaking from the heart. Whether I have this title or not, it has very limited effect on me now."

Du Shaojie felt tired. If he had known earlier, he would have continued working in the Municipal Association.

Luo Santong didn't say anything else, he knew the other party was telling the truth.

Moreover, Du Shaojie cannot come up with a project like "cold storage" to win people's hearts.

"Boss Du, I always feel that someone is deliberately setting a trap for you by letting you be in charge of this competition."

After sitting in silence for a while, Luo Santong suddenly spoke.

"Need I tell you? I noticed it from the beginning. But I have no choice but to fall into this trap. Otherwise, no one will take me seriously in the future, and the result will be the same, right?"

How could Du Shaojie not understand the president's intention? But the other party used an open conspiracy, so he could not shirk it.

Besides, he didn't want to refuse because some people's eating habits were so ugly that it disgusted him.

"Boss Du, not all the people in the provincial association are like that. I know quite a few people. Do you want me to get in touch with them?"

Luo Santong still didn't give up and wanted to help Du Shaojie win over a group of people.

Of course he knew that there was a price to pay for winning over people. After all, it was just an industry self-regulatory organization. It was important and unimportant at the same time.

"Yes, you can. But don't make random wishes for them. If you make wishes for things you can't fulfill, you might end up becoming their mortal enemies."

Du Shaojie has his own ideas, but that doesn't mean he is willing to be an enemy of the majority of the provincial association.

In fact, everyone knows his reputation. Except for those who are blinded by greed, most people still hold the mentality of "less trouble is worse than more".

And most of these people who are waiting and watching can actually be won over.

After that, Du Shaojie would visit the association whenever he had nothing to do, and every time he went there he would go to the president's office and sit for a while.

The president is Li Chunlai, who is in his fifties. He looks kind with a smile on his face, but what he actually does is very vicious.

Li Chunlai was always polite and smiling every time he met Du Shaojie, he was a typical smiling tiger.

When the association is bored, Du Shaojie will also chat with ordinary members.

Only then did I realize that hosting competitions is an important source of funds for the association, and it had received a lot of sponsorship in the past. But with Du Shaojie's arrangement, there was not much profit left from this competition.

"President Li, we still have to use the influence of the competition to attract sponsors. Relying on internal ranking arrangements will only damage our brand."

Du Shaojie didn't care what Li Chunlai was thinking. Once they got a little familiar with each other, he would break the window paper in front of the other party.

It’s okay to take the blame, but the problems that need to be solved still need to be solved.

"President Du, you are a well-fed man who does not know the hunger of a hungry man. If we only rely on that little membership fee, won't we be left with nothing?

Do you know why I asked you to be in charge of this competition? I just want you to experience firsthand that a small competition can hide a lot of things. "(End of this chapter)
