Reborn Scholar

Chapter 59

Old Zou stepped back, but Old Han didn't.

It was only when he arrived at the place that Meng Shi realized that although his coming to this place was not the most important thing, it was almost the same.

The inspection process is more stringent than going to Mr. Zou's place before.

But Meng Shi was not too nervous.

After all, she had seen such a posture last time, and most importantly, she felt that Mr. Han was more kind, unlike Mr. Zou who always had a straight face.Then, isn't there Han Cheng by his side, which is really reassuring.

"A Cheng is here. The old man is in the study. Go and ask the old man to come down for dinner." Lin Bo and Wu Ma were serving the old man here. Lin Bo followed the old man in the early years, and he has been taking care of the old man since he left the army.

The old man also regards them as his own family. Han Cheng and his juniors respect Lin Bo and his wife very much.

"Alright Mama Wu, this is Meng Shi. You can just call her Shi Shi. Grandpa had eaten her side dishes last time, and he kept asking me to bring her back to have a look." Han Cheng said with a smile.

Wu Ma looked at Meng Shi with a smile all over her face, "Hey, this is time, the old man was talking about it when he came back from Mr. Zou's last time. I wanted to buy some acacia flowers and make them, but the old man refused."

Meng Shi smiled and handed the food box to Mama Wu, "Hi Mama Wu, I made some Amy fruit and green dumplings, and brought them for the old man to taste."

"Oh, that's great. The old man is saying that he has no appetite for the past two days. It's time for a change of taste. I'll make a meal, and you go ask the old man to come down for dinner."

Han Cheng brought Meng Shi into the house.

The room with a simple charm looks very comfortable and has a special taste.

"Sit down for a while every now and then, and I'll ask the old man to come down."

"Ah."

Not long after, Han Cheng helped the old man go downstairs together.

Meng Shi quickly got up, "Grandpa Han."

"Girl is here, as long as you haven't forgotten about me, the old man."

"How come, you are too busy, just afraid to disturb you."

"Busy is busy, but there is still time to eat some side dishes."

Meng Shi couldn't help laughing, "Yes, you're right, the girl will disturb you a lot from now on. You can just say what you want to eat."

"Okay, this girl is refreshing."

"Grandpa, dinner is ready." Wu Ma came over and smiled.

"Let's go and eat."

Seeing Amy fruit and Qingtuanzi on the dining table, the old man immediately smiled happier.

"This is made by a girl. It looks good. I'll try it first."

After eating an Amy fruit, the old man nodded while eating.

"It's delicious, that's the taste. I haven't eaten it for many years." The old man smiled.

Standing by the side, Mama Wu also said, "I guess this mugwort leaf is picked by myself, there is no one for sale in the market."

Meng Shi smiled, "This was picked by Han Cheng who drove me to the suburbs, and Han Cheng also picked a lot of it. The clean thorn teeth under the food box just now belonged to Han Chengba too. It's too late tonight. Tomorrow, it can be cooked in porridge, which is fragrant and reduces blood pressure. Mama Wu, please sit down and eat some, there are so many dishes."

Wu Ma smiled even more happily, "No, no, I still have some food left over there, I'll eat it with you, Uncle Lin, later."

"Actually, it's lively when there are more people eating. No one is here on weekdays. If you two eat with Grandpa Han, maybe Grandpa Han can eat an extra bowl." Meng Shi laughed.

Han Lao nodded, "Always is right, but these two people are stubborn, and they can't say anything."

Meng Shi shook his head and laughed, and said nothing more.

Lin Bo and Wu Ma had their reasons for insisting not to eat at the same table as the old man.

The old man ate another green dumpling and praised, "This dumpling is strong and chewy, and the stuffing is good. It's really good."

"Grandpa Han, Han Cheng did this."

"What did Xiaoer do?" Grandpa Han was a little surprised.

"That's right, the mugwort leaves were picked by Han Cheng, and the glutinous rice was pounded by Han Cheng, and Han Cheng even wrapped one. Guess which one?"

Grandpa Han became interested, stared at the cage of green dumplings, and quickly smiled, "It must be this."

"Yes."

"Okay, Xiaoer has grown up and can cook. Not bad, grandpa used to say that you don't work hard and don't know the grains, but now you have really grown up! Good!" the old man praised, and he was very face-saving I ate the one made by Han Cheng himself.

Han Cheng smiled helplessly, "Grandpa, I have grown up a long time ago."

Old Man Han glared at Han Cheng, "In my place, if you don't have a family or children, you are just children."

Han Cheng had nothing to say.

start a family?child?
Why does he feel so far away?

He has always felt that women are really annoying!
If there is any woman who is not annoying...

Undoubtedly, the first thing that came to his mind was Meng Shi.But Meng Shi is a little girl or a little sister, okay?

Seeing that Han Cheng didn't speak, the old man ignored him, and turned to Meng Shi with a smile, "How is Shi Shi at school? With so many things on hand, can you still keep up with schoolwork?"

Meng Shi was not surprised that the old man knew about her, it would be strange if he didn't.

"Well, studies come first."

"Good boy, grandpa likes it." The old man ate another Amy fruit, and he was in a good mood. "Girl, I will treat this place as my own home from now on. If you have anything to do, just tell Han Cheng directly. Or come to find grandpa, it's fine." .Well, it's delicious."

Meng Shi was helpless, "Grandpa Han, you can't eat too much of this, glutinous rice is not easy to digest. Besides, Wu Ma and Lin Bo haven't tasted any of it yet, and Han Cheng worked so hard today, and he didn't even get a bite of it." Now, let’s think it’s Grandpa who loves us.”

As he said that, Meng Shi directly distributed the remaining Amy fruit and Qingtuanzi to himself and Han Cheng, and let Mama Wu take the rest.

Regardless of his image, the old man snatched another Amy fruit, and said reluctantly, "It's not enough to eat!"

Meng Shi smiled, "I'll do it for you in a few days."

The old man nodded reluctantly and began to eat porridge.

After dinner, without saying a few words, the old man's secretary came to look for something.

Meng Shi hurriedly said, "It's getting late, Grandpa Han, you're busy, I'll go back first, and I'll come to see you another day."

Mr. Han nodded, "Xiao Er sent the girl back, pay attention to safety. Girl, remember what Grandpa told you."

Meng Shi smiled brightly, "I will never forget it."

Going out from here, Meng Shi was slightly relieved.

It was getting dark at this moment, and the dim street lamps were dimly shadowed, giving a feeling of being around after dusk.

Han Cheng looked at Meng Shi with a half-smile, "You're doing pretty well."

"Hmph. If I don't greet the old man with a smile, do I still want to speak ill?" Meng Shi rolled his eyes at Han Cheng, "However, your grandpa is really kind. Grandpa Zou is more scary. His face was tense."

The corner of Han Cheng's mouth twitched, "Amiable? You haven't seen the time when he beat me with a whip when I was young."

"Smack you? What good did you do?" Meng Shi was very curious.

Han Cheng was helpless, "Are you so curious about my dark history?"

"Yeah." Meng Shi nodded heavily, staring at Han Cheng without blinking, his eyes were shining, like a child eager for something, his eyes were incredibly bright.

Han Cheng's heart softened suddenly, "It's okay, I just accidentally broke a blue and white porcelain bowl of grandpa's, which happened to be his favorite."

"That really deserves a fight."

"..."

But Meng Shi didn't know that after she and Han Cheng left, Mama Wu laughed when she massaged the old man's head after work.

"This little girl is really nice. If there is such a young lady in our family, she will really be a treasure."

Mr. Han hummed, "Little Er is blessed."

Wu Ma smiled happily, "Isn't it."

The first Century Mall in City B will open on June [-]st.The publicity has also been done in full swing.

The marketing and publicity planning of Century Mall was done by the joint venture between Wu Han and Shengshi.

The advertising company is called Creative, a very simple and straightforward name.

Meng Shi had to admit that Wu Han really had an idea that was beyond the times, very bold and avant-garde, which made people's eyes shine.Even she, who is used to the marketing methods of later generations, thinks it's pretty good.At least in the current environment, it is very suitable.

He made Century Mall into a fashion and trend, and the publicity was overwhelming, as if anyone who didn't know Century Mall was out of date!
In fact, this is an explosive marketing method commonly used a few years later, which is to make advertisements pervasive and form an information explosion.In fact, it is quite annoying, but now it seems that it is quite new, and people are quite happy with it.

On June [-]st, Century Mall opened.

You don't need to look at Meng Shi to know that this place must be crowded.

Zou Kai himself is quite capable, and he has a lot of capable people under his command.

Century Mall not only has well-known local brands, but also foreign big names.

For example, Chanel, Gucci and LV, some of them are opening stores in China for the first time.

Then there are cinemas, KTV and other entertainment facilities, as well as restaurants and so on.

It can be said that here, eating, drinking and having fun in daily life, only you can't think of it, and you can't find it without it!
The current consumption level of Chinese residents has improved a lot, especially in City B, which has gathered dreamers from all over the country. Various companies have sprung up like mushrooms after rain, and countless people are looking for opportunities in this establishment.

As a new thing, Century Mall has naturally been sought after.With a completely novel shopping experience and a completely unusual marketing model, Century Mall is the most fashionable existence in people's eyes.

And another point is that Century Mall promises to be absolutely authentic!Whether it is clothing, food, or daily necessities bought from here, exaggerated sales are not allowed, and there is absolutely no counterfeiting!

At the same time, the airs of Han Cheng's media empire were also set up.He recruited another domestic business tycoon and a patriotic businessman from HK to establish the Baina Group.At the same time, it has also begun to acquire subsidiaries that have long been fancy.

The group acquired a TV station located in a coastal province, reintegrated Shangxing, and became the new Pearl TV.

Compared with the TV stations in China that seem dull and uninspired today, the style of Pearl TV is definitely bold and hot6.

It was Tong Yan's production company that provided programs for Pearl TV.

In addition, the TV station also introduced several well-known M dramas, making every Saturday and weekend a high-quality M drama time.

And after the TV station became a star, the first major drama was Blue Unrequited Love.

The story is actually very bloody and simple. It was originally a pair of lovers with different backgrounds. After going through all kinds of misunderstandings, they finally came together. It turned out that the heroine had a terminal illness and finally died...

This kind of plot will be bad in a few years, but at this time, it is still very fresh.

This story was written by Meng Shi with the outline, story outline, and character design, but the specific details of the script were filled in by the assistant screenwriter team that Tong Yan found for her.

In addition to this, Meng Shi also wrote several bloody outlines.There are modern and ancient ones, all of which have been filled into various scripts, some of which have been filmed, and some are being filmed.

As soon as Blue Love was broadcast, it set off a huge storm among the young people. Countless people watched it, feeling sad for the romantic and desperate love in the play.

At this time, there are actually quite a few high-quality TV dramas in China, but they are basically bitter dramas that reflect social reality. It is very moving to watch, but it is too heavy.Young people may not like it.

Such as Lan Jue Lian, just right for young people's appetite.

Then there are various forms of variety shows and easy news...

In short, the programs of Pearl TV, even the news that many people are impatient to watch, can make people's eyes shine.

Pearl TV has become popular, and discerning manufacturers want to place advertisements.Yes, you can talk about the price, but your advertisement must meet the requirements of our TV station!
any request?Of course, it’s novelty, uniqueness and creativity. Don’t come here who simply say which product is good.

Well, which company do you think can make an advertisement into an art film? It’s as simple as a creative company.

Well, creative company is good, we all know that we have cooperated!
Tong Yan doesn't have too many artists available now, but the ones who have been trained in the early stage are almost the same now.

Although the essence of a product like a star is very important, the later packaging is obviously more important.

Just like the male and female protagonists in Blue Love, they are all newcomers, and their acting skills are good. Of course, their looks are also good, so a drama will become popular!
In this example, the artists trained by Tong Yan's company also worked very hard.

But this is also related to the age. People at this time can still settle down and concentrate on learning acting, not like a few years later, when artists dream of becoming famous overnight and always want to use various means to hype the top. When it comes to acting, the acting skills are simply unbearable to look at.

Doesn't Huaxia have good actors?Of course there are, but most of them are from the older generation.

Why do the actors of the new generation and those idol dramas always fail to compete in country H?Is the script bad?In fact, I don't care about the script at all, and the script is also very innocent.After all, it's the same script as others, but the ones filmed in China always make people laugh and cry.

The reason is very simple, that is, the acting skills of those actors really make people want to vomit blood.That's why, domestic idol dramas are getting more and more people complaining, and more and more young people are hahahar...

On the other hand, more mature films, such as inspirational films about marriage and love that reflect social reality, because the actors used are of good quality, the results are still very good.

At the end of June, the quality inspection organization established by Meng Shi in country M, and its branch in HK, officially completed the quality inspection of various foods purchased daily by Huijia Supermarket.

The test results are not too serious.

Because the purchase price of Huijia Supermarket is not low, and there has been a notice in advance to test the quality, the products of some merchants have no problems, so I will not talk about them. If there are problems, in order to continue to cooperate with Huijia, it will be no problem. of.

There are about [-] kinds of products from a few suppliers that have been detected to be problematic.

On the day when the test results come out, all these products will be removed from the shelves, and consumers who have already purchased them will be returned.

These merchants are still very dissatisfied, and they can't kill people, so why can't they sell them?

If you don't sell it, I'll sell it to someone else!Since you are picky, then our merchants will unite and not supply you. It depends on what you sell.

But obviously, the supermarket will not give these merchants a chance to join forces.

The supermarket posted all the test reports of the various foods tested this time.

European standard, M country standard, Chinese standard, which standard each product meets is marked.

And those that fail to meet any of the standards are destined to be unqualified products that will be removed from the shelves.In order to popularize food safety knowledge, what items are unqualified and what consequences may be brought to the human body are clearly listed, making it clear at a glance.

No one is an idiot or a masochist, who has money to spend, who is willing to buy substandard products?Who wants to make fun of their own health?

Especially this kind of bacteria and that kind of bacteria, it is very scary to look at, and this kind of additives may cause cancer or something, no one will be afraid of it.

Supermarkets also put a thumbs-up label on products that meet all standards during the quality inspection. As long as the price difference is not too large, people are still willing to choose the product that meets all standards.

The supermarket's prestige has risen to a higher level. Of course, this can be regarded as another promotion for Century Mall.

Today's century malls and supermarkets are absolutely trustworthy standards in people's minds.

The sales volume of those qualified products promoted by supermarkets is astonishing, and naturally some people are jealous.As a result, merchants who were originally unwilling to let their products be picked and picked also took the initiative to submit their products for inspection. After receiving the qualified inspection report, they were ecstatic.And supermarkets will also tend to purchase these qualified products, even if the price is slightly higher, it doesn't matter if the supermarket's profit is lower.

On July [-]st, the whole country celebrates the return of HK.

On July [-], country T abandoned the fixed exchange rate system and implemented a floating exchange rate system. The currency of country T depreciated sharply against the US dollar, and the foreign exchange and financial markets were in chaos.The financial turmoil in Southeast Asia has officially begun.

The international speculators who had already been eyeing and ready to go, began to violently attack the foreign exchange markets of Southeast Asian countries, and even the Singapore dollar, which had always been strong, was severely impacted.

Meng Shi had asked Tang Jintian to always pay attention to the changes in the international market, especially those international speculators who made people fearful, such as Soros, the founder of Quantum Fund, who was single-handedly stirring up the financial turmoil in Southeast Asia.

She can't do anything else, but it's not difficult to follow along and get a share.

According to statistics afterwards, the amount of international hot money mobilized in this financial turmoil was about 1000 billion U.S. dollars.Soros' Quantum Fund made a profit of about 20 billion US dollars in this storm!
In addition, Meng Shi's most profitable and profitable should be regarded as speculating in foreign exchange.

Since last year, she has used her technology company and stocks in country M to borrow money in country R, ​​country H, Indonesia and other countries.

To give a simple example, in June 97, the ratio of the US dollar to the Indonesian rupiah was 6 to 1, but in 2380, the ratio became 98 to 1.

Assuming that before 97, I borrowed 2380 Indonesian rupiah and agreed to repay the loan in US dollars in the future, then before the financial turmoil, the repayment only needs 1 US dollar in addition to the interest and the principal.Then, if it is after the financial turmoil, for example, the repayment in 98, the original loan principal of 2380 yuan is approximately equal to 017 US dollars, that is to say, in addition to the interest, only the repayment of 017 US dollars is enough for the principal.

In this way, borrowing and repaying, the original one-dollar loan made a difference of US$083.Then enlarge this amount and borrow 2000 million U.S. dollars, and you can make a net profit of about 1660 million U.S. dollars!Of course, interest and the like are calculated separately. Anyway, compared with the money earned, the interest is really pitifully small.This is a veritable white wolf with empty gloves!

The same method, compared with other foreign exchange, is the operation.

This is completely the most direct and most free method of making money that can withstand all investigations!It is also the fastest way to accumulate wealth!

Of course, if one didn't know about the financial turmoil, no one would have thought of such a way to make money.

Obviously, this approach is also more dangerous.If there were no financial turmoil and exchange rate changes, then Meng Shi himself would suffer in the end.

Meng Shi did not hide this from Han Cheng, nor could he hide it.Han Cheng asked, but she didn't explain much, so Han Cheng stopped asking.

On July 7rd, Meng Shi received a call from Han Cheng who was in HK.

The Thai baht has depreciated sharply, and international speculators have launched an attack on country T.

Meng Shi didn't say anything, because the signal was already so obvious, of course Han Cheng didn't need her judgment.

No one is a fool, now it is country T, and soon it will be the turn of neighboring countries.

The appetites of those international financial giants are not small, and they don't care about the impact on these third world countries, as long as they can make money and suck blood, that's enough.

After country T, it will be HK's turn soon.

Meng Shi could almost guess what Han Cheng was going to do. It was very simple, to help the country unite with HK merchants, stabilize the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate, and stabilize the HK stock market.

Next, busy, all kinds of busyness.

The whole world seems to be in chaos.

Asia, where the economy took off before, is now in dire straits.

None of the four Asian tigers was spared.

The whole of Asia is shrouded in a dark cloud!
Han Cheng was so busy that his feet never touched the ground, every time he made a phone call, he was in a hurry.

Meng Shi wasn't idle either. During the summer vacation, she didn't go home.

What is needed to speculate in foreign exchange is timing. She can't remember the specific lowest point of each data, but it is almost enough. Too greedy is no good.

First of all, it has gained a net profit of nearly 3000 million US dollars from Indonesia.

Before that, she had no money. After all, there were too many places to spend money, and the income was far from enough for her to spend.

Now that she has money again, the things she has to do are much simpler.

Taking advantage of the financial turmoil, she bought the stocks of companies she was interested in, such as the Samsung Group in country H and so on.

Throughout the second half of the year, everyone was very busy, almost crazy busy.

In half a year, Meng Shi only met Han Cheng once, and the rest were all by phone.

The entire period from 97 to 98 was in chaos.

In the Spring Festival of 98, she basically didn't have much to do. Meng Shi left the stall to Tang Jintian. Anyway, Tang Jintian was much more proficient in financial operations than her.

Come back home!
