Zhou Ming and Lou Xiao'e have left the capital for more than ten years, but there is no so-called homesickness at all. When the couple talks, they rarely mention the courtyard, as if they have already disappeared from their lives.
In fact, the couple has already reached a new dimension at this time. Looking back at the trivial details of the courtyard, you may have a completely different feeling.
Therefore, a person must always jump out of his fixed comfort zone. Once he develops a fixed mindset, he is no different from the fish and shrimp in the pond, which is why Zhou Ming is successful today.
The Zhou Group has already accumulated a lot of energy, and with its thorough preparations in the early stages, it is natural that it has quickly become a leader in Shenzhen's business community.
In the past, due to various limitations in Hong Kong, it was not a suitable soil for the development of manufacturing. Therefore, the manufacturing industry of Zhou Group was also greatly restricted.
"Boss, our Xingkong brand home appliances have become the world's number one in sales." Huo Jianning came to Zhou Ming with the latest quarterly report in surprise and said.
"Oh? This is only 1982, and we have already achieved such good results?" Zhou Ming couldn't help but feel pleasantly surprised when he thought about the last time he was the second best player in the millennium.
"Boss, the main reason is that your early decision-making and deployment are correct enough. Coupled with the low land resources and labor costs in the mainland, it will naturally give wings to our Zhou's manufacturing industry."
"Well, although we have made money now, we must not be able to catch all the money, so I am planning to open a training class in our factory owned by Zhou."
"Training class?" At this time, Huo Jianning looked confused and didn't quite understand.
"Yes! For example, for an ordinary worker who drives screws on the production line of an electronics factory, at least he should be able to repair electronic products after leaving the factory, instead of being a loser who only knows how to drive screws."
"But...such an investment is really too great."
"Mr. Huo, we need to take a longer-term view. Only by making this cake bigger will we be able to eat more cakes."
"Okay! I will carry out your orders."
"Haha, give me another four years. Then when you look back at the present, you will think that I am a god-like man again."
"Huh? Yes! Boss."
In fact, sometimes it is really difficult for Huo Jianning to understand Zhou Ming. If Zhou Ming were not his parents, and Zhou Ming would be fooled every time, otherwise Huo Jianning would have given up his choice at this time.
In Huo Jianning's view, a company must aim at making profits, and will never do anything that has no possibility of profit. That's why he and Li Ka-shing are so in tune with each other, because to be precise, Huo Jianning and Li Ka-shing are the same kind of people.
Therefore, regardless of whether you can understand it or not, you must unconditionally carry out the boss's orders. Fortunately, the boss does not like to get involved in the details of the company's operations.
Every move of the Zhou Group is eye-catching, because at this time, the Zhou Group has influenced all walks of life around the world, and the products of the Zhou Group have become closely related to many people.
Sure enough, the Zhou Group's establishment of a training institution has aroused widespread concern and discussion in society. Anyway, many people cannot understand Zhou's behavior.
…
Just after 1982, the mainland market finally agreed to open the SH market to the Zhou Group, and it also relaxed the hotel business entering the mainland market.
Therefore, the Zhou Group immediately quickly transferred part of the production capacity of the German, German and Japanese machinery manufacturing industries to Shanghai, and began to build Dragon Palace hotels in first-tier cities such as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen.
In Beijing, Siheyuan, Yan Jiecheng and his wife Qin Jingru made some money from opening a restaurant, so they bought a 14-inch black and white TV for the third uncle Yan Bugui, which was a surprise to the famous Yan Laokou in the Siheyuan.
"Hey! This is great! This is great! Our family can afford to watch a TV now." At this time, Yan Lao Kou kept praising the black and white TV in front of him.
"Dad, Mom, Jingru and I made some money from opening a restaurant, so I bought you a TV set to honor you." At this time, Yan Jiecheng and Qin Jingru looked at each other proudly, and then looked at them blankly. Xiang Yanlaokou said with a smile.
"Xie Cheng, do you and Jingru have something to ask for?"
"Hehe, I really can't hide anything from you, Dad."
"Hmph! You guys started opening restaurants in the 1980s. How could you be a courteous corporal if you didn't ask for help?"
"Dad, it's not as exaggerated as you said. We just want to borrow some money."
"How many?"
"Twenty thousand!"
"No! Feelings, you are trying to catch a big fish at the expense of a small fish!" At this time, Yan Laokou realized the little thoughts of his son and daughter-in-law. He looked at the TV set aside and felt that it was not good anymore, "Take it. Go! Take it away! I don’t care about your broken TV set.”
"How can this be possible? I've even set up the antenna for you. Just take a look at the picture inside." How could the smart little Yan Jiecheng give up so easily? He immediately stepped forward and turned on the TV with a playful smile.
"Hey...hey...this is the Central People's Broadcasting Station...Wen Pingdao..."
Soon Yan Laokou and the third aunt were filled with indignation and were attracted by the TV screen. They didn't care whether the TV was a sugar-coated bomb for the eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law.
"The following is a brief report. Hong Kong's famous patriotic businessman Zhou Ming will build a 38-story Dragon Palace Hotel in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen. It will provide better hotel services to guests from all over the world..."
The Yan family were all attracted by the news and the pictures on TV. Seeing the patriotic businessman Zhou Ming surrounded by many big shots on the TV, the bright-eyed Yan Laokou immediately shouted excitedly.
"Silly Zhu! Silly Zhu! It's Silly Zhu on TV..."
Yan Laokou's voice was so outstanding that he immediately called almost all the neighbors in the courtyard to come. They were all staring at the 14-inch TV screen.
"Where's Silly Pillar? Where is it?"
"Hey! Isn't this the one standing next to the mayor?"
"Huh? You are really stupid!"
"That's wrong! What's the name of the person mentioned in the news?"
"Zhou Ming!"
"Yes! How could Shazhu be called Zhou Ming?"
At this time, Yi Zhonghai, who also ran over to watch the excitement, showed a look of understanding, and his doubts for many years were relieved at this moment.
It turns out that Zhou Ming and Lou Xiao'e did not go to the south to work, but moved their family to Hong Kong, and even changed their names to Zhou Ming. No wonder they have never returned to the capital or the courtyard for so many years.
Looking at the silly Zhu who had been renamed Zhou Ming on the TV, Yi Zhonghai's face was full of complexity and melancholy. He felt that the events of that year were as vivid in his mind as yesterday...
