"Lao Li, have you met many challenges in your life? After a lot of setbacks? " I looked at Lao Li.

Lao Li didn't answer me directly. Looking at the sea in the distance, he said slowly, "a person, a man, can conquer heaven only if he has experienced hell like torture. Only his bloody fingers can pop up the world's masterpiece."

Lao Li's words shocked me. I said, "Lao Li, you must have been very successful in doing business. Your life must have been brilliant. "

"Life." Lao Li repeated, then turned to look at me: "Xiaoyi, I ask you, what is life?"

I answered without hesitation: "life is struggle!"

"Yes. Yes: "Lao Li nodded:" what are you fighting for? "

"For ideal career and love!" I said.

"Yes. Well said. " Lao Li looked at me with loving eyes: "yes, life is struggle, for ideal career and love. This life includes career, glory, food and drink, life and friendship. Do you know what the highest level of these things is? "

I thought, "I think it's very complicated. I can't say it for a moment. I want to hear from you."

Lao Li said, "the highest state of life is not how old you can live, not how many hardships and setbacks you overcome, but how you come and go in this world crying and laughing; The highest level of friendship is not how many friends you have made, nor how many intimate same-sex or opposite-sex friends you have, but that you haven't contacted for a long time and are often in your heart... "

I benefited a lot from discussing these things with Lao Li. I think Lao Li is really a person with rich connotation. I can't help but rejoice that I have made such a good friend. A good man has a good reward. It seems that I got a good reward for saving Lao Li that day. This reward is that I made him a friend who can be my mentor.

After a while, Lao Li asked me, "by the way, Xiao Yi, didn't you say that you still wanted to win the subscription project of Sanshui group that day? How's it going? "

I said, "it hasn't started yet. I'm looking for the right opportunity. Just picked up the big list of their travel. First stabilize this, and then find an opportunity to start. "

"Hehe, you are giving consideration to both public and private." Lao Li laughed.

"Hehe. The travel company belongs to my girlfriend. I'll be a helper. She mainly operates it. I am the general manager of tourism. In fact, I have a good reputation when I go out for negotiation. " I said.

"Oh. It seems that you have put considerable energy on the business of the distribution company of Xinghai media group you are now doing? " Lao Li said.

"Yes. In fact, I like working in the workplace very much. I have unlimited love for business and sales! " I said.

"Hehe, what position have you achieved in Xinghai media group now?" Lao Li said.

"A small head of a department of the issuing company." I said.

"This Xinghai media group is the enterprise management of public institutions. Working in this unit is very different from working in private enterprises." Lao Li said.

"Yes, you're right." I said, "this kind of unit is really difficult to mix."

Lao Li smiled: "in this unit, if you want to mix well and succeed, the key is to have a good leader."

I laughed: "Lao Li, you're right. I'm with a wise leader now."

"Beauty boss?" Lao Li looked at me with a smile.

I nodded: "you know that!"

"Qiu Tong?" Lao Li continued.

"Do you know?" I laughed.

"I don't know, but I've heard that Xinghai media group has a very capable female boss of a distribution company." Lao Li said: "I heard that the female boss is young and surprisingly beautiful. She not only has outstanding appearance, but also has excellent ability to behave and work, style and quality."

"Ha ha." I smiled happily, "you're right, it's true."

I can't help feeling a little proud.

"Xiao Yi, I have to congratulate you on having such a good leader."

"Tongxi, Tongxi!" I grinned.

"Now you are approaching the period of newspaper subscription. Sanshui group is a big unit. Their newspaper group subscribes. You should hurry up. Don't be robbed by people from other newspapers? " Lao Li mentioned ordering newspapers again.

"Yes, we must hurry up. Our group estimates that it will soon be able to pass the large-scale Subscription Scheme of our company. As long as it has passed, I will operate it."

"How sure are you of this?" Lao Li looked at me.

I thought for a moment and slapped my right hand: "50% assurance!"

"Only 50%? I thought you were 100% sure? " Lao Li looked disappointed.

"Hey. I'm deliberately conservative. In fact, as long as I have 50% confidence in my business, it's very good. I haven't talked about it with others yet. 50% is still less? " I said, "Lao Li, I'll tell you, don't look at me now. I'm 50% sure. I'll be able to operate this business, 100%

"So confident?" Lao Li smiled happily.

"Yes, I have this confidence, but I can't guarantee the number of copies. I don't know if I can get tens of thousands of copies!" I said, "there are too many employees in Sanshui group, tens of thousands. If they can give each employee welfare, send an annual Xinghai evening news as spiritual food, or order some gifts to citizens or customers, it will be large. It's hard to estimate this amount."

"It's really a good way to give welfare to employees as spiritual food and give gifts to citizens and customers." Lao Li nodded, "where does your confidence come from?"

I said, "it comes from win-win."

"Win win?"

"Yes, win-win." I said: "for us, this is an effective distribution, which can stimulate advertising. For them, only 180 yuan can be seen for a year, which is much more affordable than giving employees food. Moreover, giving gifts to citizens and customers can expand their influence in society, which is an invisible brand and value that money can't buy. "

Lao Li stared at me and said, "boy, your idea is very right. Yes, you have grasped the essence of marketing. It seems that my child is a marketing expert. "

I smiled: "where, how dare I be a master in front of you? I need to learn more from you."

Lao Li ignored my modesty and compliment and said, "I just don't know if the boss of Sanshui group will think of these. I don't know if they have this vision and courage."

I said, "it depends on how you deal with customers. If you only take customers as your tool to make money, and only think about making customers bleed more for yourself, you will not only fail to achieve your goal, but even lose customers forever. "

Lao Li said, "Xiaoyi, I'm glad you can straighten out the relationship between yourself and your customers."

Lao Li used the word "gratification" here, which made me a little surprised, but I felt a trace of the elder's care for the younger generation.

Lao Li then smiled: "Xiaoyi, a big customer of Sanshui group, I think you will succeed."

I smiled: "I hope so. Let's see if we can make a newspaper with 8000 copies."

"Maybe you'll have a bigger surprise." Lao Li laughed.

I looked at Lao Li and felt that Lao Li smiled mysteriously. I was confused. I didn't understand why he smiled like this for a moment.

"Xiao Yi, how are your parents at home?" Lao Li smiled for a while and asked me again.

"Well, good." I said.

"There are two elders at home. Life is a treasure." Lao Li said, "it's not easy to wander around. Remember to call your parents to report peace and care more about your parents' health."

Lao Li's words made me feel warm. I thought of my parents thousands of miles away and nodded solemnly.

Then Lao Li stood up and said, "Xiao Yi, will you walk with me?"

"Good!" I stood up and walked slowly along the railing by the sea side by side with Lao Li.

"Xiao Yi, how is your girlfriend treating you?" Lao Li suddenly asked.

"Very good. My girlfriend is very kind to me." I looked at Lao Li and smiled, "what's the matter? Lao Li, would you like to introduce me to another girlfriend? "

"It's all right. I'm just asking." Lao Li twinkled in his eyes and said with a smile, "we are friends. I care about your personal affairs. Shouldn't we?"

"Hey, hey, you should." I laughed.

"Are you satisfied with making friends with me?" Lao Li said.

"Satisfied. Lao Li, I tell you, I'm really glad to have a friend like you. " I said, "Hey - I wish I had known you a few years earlier. You and I really hate to see each other late. "

Lao Li smiled happily: "of course I believe you are telling the truth!"

I said, "I want to ask you, do you find it interesting to make friends with a young man like me?"

Lao Li said, "of course it's interesting. Making friends with you will at least make me feel young and not old. My people are old, but my heart doesn't want to grow old so quickly. "

I looked at Lao Li and said half jokingly, "it's a pity that our age gap is too big. Otherwise, it's good for us to worship our brothers. Ha ha. "

Then I laughed.

Lao Li also laughed and patted me on the shoulder after laughing: "worship or not is just a form. As long as you have it in your heart, it's enough. In fact, even if we can't worship our brothers, we can be men. Xiao Yi, I suddenly have an idea. If you don't dislike me, how about you be my godfather and my son? "

With that, Lao Li stopped, smiled half truely and looked at me with expectant eyes.

I looked at Lao Li's eyes and knew that although Lao Li said he had an idea suddenly, it must not be sudden.

My mind wandered around quickly, hehe smiled and said, "Lao Li, how can I dislike you? You think too much. However, you see, if I become your son and you become my father, we can't communicate equally as friends now. In fact, I have always wanted to treat you as my brother. When I become a father and son, I will feel pressure and uncomfortable.

Besides, you are a millionaire and I am a poor man. Because I saved you, I became your dry son. It will be known in the future that I tried to save you with bad intentions. The relationship between us is immediately covered with a layer of utilitarian color, which is not good for you and me. You said, didn't you? So, I think we'd better keep our current good friend relationship, but what do you say? "

A glimmer of disappointment flashed in Lao Li's eyes, and then he laughed dryly: "OK, I respect your ideas and don't force you."

Looking at Lao Li's lost look, I felt sorry and hurriedly said, "however, Lao Li, don't worry, I will respect you as an elder in my heart. In fact, that's what I've been doing since we met. "

Lao Li's expression returned to normal, then walked slowly forward and said, "well, it seems that we can only be a pair of friends who forget their years."
