"Long time no see, Zhou Chen. You've lost a lot of weight." He Shaoan sat on the office chair and looked at Zhou Chen and said.
Although Zhou Chen was very puzzled, he said calmly: "I haven't seen you for two years. I didn't expect you to become the president of the company."
"No, no, no, it's the vice president." He Shaoan said slowly.
In the military camp of the superpowers, He Shaoan was as boring as a wooden stake. He was supposed to shine here, but he seemed out of place. This place is to cultivate the talent and strength of people with special abilities, but in this regard, he is like entering a dead end, making no progress, like solidified ink, no matter how hard he rubs it, it is difficult to leave any trace on the paper.
However, when He Shaoan jumped out of this suffocating framework and devoted himself to the bustling business world, he seemed to have found himself, just like a long drought met with rain, or in other words, the fish returned to the ocean. He was able to navigate the business world with ease, like a fish in the water, with no trace of the helplessness and helplessness he felt in the military camp just now.
Surprisingly, in just two years, he gradually climbed from an ordinary businessman to the position of vice president of the largest wholesaler in Dingcheng. This is undoubtedly a reflection of his business talent. He became so bright, as conspicuous as the sun high in the sky, that no one could ignore his presence. This young man who once knew nothing about anything has now become a rising star in the business world.
And Zhou Chen's figure has never disappeared from people's eyes. It's not that he has never disappeared, but that he is carefully planning a great cause - to step out of the team and turn his ideal into reality, a place where humans and monsters can coexist harmoniously. grand ideal. However, the hard barriers in the military camp prevented the realization of his ideals, so he chose to leave to seek the ideal soil.
In the past two years, Zhou Chen created a seemingly real death situation and cleverly escaped, using it as an opportunity to start preaching his ideas. His sonorous and powerful speech inspired countless demon beasts. Zhou Chen's ideas began to take root in their hearts, and his plan became successful step by step. However, there are always setbacks in the development of things, and Zhou Chen encountered the biggest bottleneck in his ideals - money. Although the plan he painstakingly planned was vast, he did not have enough money to support it.
With no choice, he began to lobby and persuade businessmen with substantial financial resources to invest their money to support his lofty ideal of pursuing harmonious coexistence. It was under this circumstance that the two of them met.
"You are very powerful. You have reached this position in just two years. It can be seen that your future is limitless." Zhou Chen praised.
He Shaoan smiled and said: "Let's not say those polite words anymore. After all, you and I are old friends who have gone through thick and thin together. I know that the purpose of your visit is not just Just a simple visit, but to apply to see the leader, there must be a major business plan that needs to be negotiated.”
"There is nothing to hide or cover up between us. We don't have to be like people walking in a maze, always watching every corner, trying to find the exit. We can speak out directly. We understand each other and trust each other. , no need to beat around the bush, no need to smear the corners, just say it directly if you have something to say.”
Zhou Chen didn't beat around the bush, and immediately said: "I have a dream, so that humans and monsters can abandon hostility and live in harmony, without any conflict at any time and anywhere. In this great cause, , I have convinced some monsters to accept us and believe in us, but the problem is before us, I cannot meet their daily needs, they need enough food to maintain their lives."
"Therefore, I am eagerly looking for a partner, a partner who can jointly produce feed, who can help me, support my ideals with practical actions, and ensure that every monster will not suffer from hunger. Together we create a A beautiful world where humans and monsters coexist harmoniously and there is no conflict.”
After listening, He Shaoan smiled and said: "I guess you have been to countless business positions and talked with those business giants who have the reputation of authority. However, they did not lend a helping hand to you. You Your efforts are undoubtedly in vain, and failures and setbacks fall on your shoulders again and again.”
"But please listen to me, brother, people in the world often only see immediate benefits, especially those of us who are wanderers and businessmen in the business world. They are short-sighted and can only see superficial demands and losses. , while ignoring the value of cooperation. Although your proposal is in the name of cooperation, it is actually more of a unilateral request, which undoubtedly discourages experienced business giants."
"These veterans who have been in the business world know very well that these animals cannot bring them the value they want, let alone rich returns. They look at the investment and returns in business with a rational eye and worship money. and reality prevent them from accepting projects where the return is far less than the investment. They focus on benefits, but forget that sometimes, the real value is not immediately visible.”
Zhou Chen answered directly: "I can't spend months or even years guiding the monsters to experience the huge value that harmonious symbiosis can bring. These monsters are well versed in realism, and their vision is short-sighted. Extremely clear: They just hope to have enough food to fill their stomachs and ensure food and clothing every day. If I can't even meet these most basic and short-term interests, then we will be like a castle built on the beach, falling apart only in One moment.”
"So I must find a solution as soon as possible, otherwise the alliance we have established today will soon fall apart, and that result will only take us away from the original intention of harmonious coexistence. I suspect that if there is no short-term guarantee, then the long-term ideal How can they wait for us to move forward?”
He Shaoan said slowly: "I deeply understand your wishes, and I fully resonate with your expectations for a better world. If the process of history does not have to be interrupted by the war with monsters, I may be more willing to If I get involved in the prosperous business world early, maybe I can be successful in the business world and show a more shining brilliance."
"More importantly, the woman I love deep in my heart does not need to endure the baptism of suffering in the military camp. Her youth should be the beauty of flowers blooming in the sun, rather than being tortured in the cold winter. of dead grass.”
"Like you, I am eagerly looking forward to the early end of that terrible war. It seems that at this moment, I have seen the scene of the white dove flying in the sky, bringing peace and hope. Therefore, I hope to provide you with a Power, I want to use the money in my hand to build a strong fortress for you and invest in you so that your ideas can be realized and bring more beauty to our world."
However, He Shaoan paused and said, "However, I must tell you that the current social environment and policy conditions do not allow your idea to succeed. A major change in the situation is coming, and the iron heel of the alliance has blocked it. Having found the road to the Western Continent, they are like hunters, spreading their nets, preparing to catch all the monsters in one catch."
"And you, your future is still far away, like the stars in the dark night, bright but out of reach. Your road still needs to go very far, very far. The fog ahead has not dissipated. The future is Vague.”
"The most important thing is that I am currently only the vice president of this big company, and my power is limited. I cannot mobilize funds as turbulent as the waves to support your ideals, and the help I can provide is just like a drop of water. Tiny. Please forgive my current powerlessness, because to change a world, we need more power."
Zhou Chen sighed helplessly. It had been a long time since he met a businessman who agreed with his ideas. One of the more difficult things is that the result is that the vice president has more than enough ambition but not enough energy.
At this time, He Shaoan suddenly said: "However, you don't need to worry too much. As time goes by, I may be able to climb to the position of president in a few years. By then, I will have enough strength and capital to devote all my energy to the company." All the power to support you, your ideals and dreams. I can then provide you with everything you need."
"However, the most pressing issue now is that you need to survive these difficult years and survive the crazy siege of monsters by humans. In the days when the wind and rain are like a wall, you need to be persevering, like a tenacious grass. , standing proudly in the wind and snow."
"In this harsh environment, I have a proposal that is yet to mature. Maybe it is not perfect and may have many loopholes and difficulties, but I am willing to show it in front of you, because we are all looking forward to a better future. future."
"I am willing to provide you with a ship that is still alive and has not yet been destroyed. It should allow you to carry those monsters with good intentions and sail to the vast western continent to find your new home. In In the days to come, you can come back and open your heart to humans, convince them with your words and beliefs, and when they accept you, then you can lead all the monsters back."
"What I can provide you is a ration of food for more than a month and some vegetable seeds for you to sow hope in your new life. This is the limit of what I can do at the moment. However, this is just your return. The first step in shaping your life, the real construction of life on the west side road, needs to be mastered by yourself.”
Businessmen look further than themselves. The path pointed out by He Shaoan seems to be the only path he can take now. Zhou Chen could only nod in agreement.
