Life 1984

Chapter 281 Don't give face!

Back home, Lin Zhi and Zhang Shuwen went to wash and fillet the fish.

Li Yunhai invited Xiao Yuan and others to take a seat.

Before Lin Zhenbang went to Beijin to study, Xiao Yuan and Lin Zhenbang got close, and Li Yunhai naturally treated him with courtesy.

As for Tang Laibin, Li Yunhai ignored him.

As Tang Laibin, he took the initiative to come to the Li family to sue for peace, but was so ignored. If it had been anyone else, he would have left long ago, and he might even take revenge in the future.

But this person is Li Yunhai!
Tang Laibin wanted to deal with him yesterday, but was defeated several times in a row. Not only did he not hurt Li Yunhai at all, but he was made very passive by Li Yunhai's counterattack.

Li Yunhai didn't kick him out on the spot, it was because of the high position under his butt.If you were an ordinary person and you wanted to harm me, would I still be nice to you?No matter how hospitable the rural people are, they will sweep you out with a broom.

Friends or enemies, Li Yunhai knows it very clearly.

His tolerance for others does not mean that he can tolerate his enemies.

Tang Laibin also knew that he was not welcome. After sitting down, he said nothing and allowed Xiao Yuan and Li Yunhai to chat.

Li Yunhai is a good person. If you want to talk to me about family affairs and the economic situation at home and abroad, then I will accompany you. If you talk about those two projects, he will keep silent.

Xiao Yuan was at a loss for a while and was helpless.

Lin Zhi shouted from inside: "Yunhai, come here and help me!"

Li Yunhai smiled and agreed, asked Xiao Yuan and the others to sit down for a while, got up and walked into the kitchen.

Lin Zhi looked at the vegetables in the sink and said with a mixture of laughter and tears: "I don't know how to cut open the fish. In the past, the fish I bought in the city were all killed by the fish seller."

Li Yunhai put out the cigarette butt in his hand, took the knife from her hand, and said with a smile: "Before you cut up the fish, you have to kill it first. Use the knife to pat the fish on the head. Pat it twice and it will die."

He grabbed the largest crucian carp and put it on the chopping board. The crucian carp kept wagging its tail.

Lin Zhi exclaimed: "Why do you hold it so securely? As soon as I catch it, it runs around! I can't even catch it!"

Li Yunhai smiled and said, "You have to use some strength to pinch it."

He held the kitchen knife flat and patted the fish's head a few times. The crucian carp, which was jumping around just now, immediately became motionless.

Li Yunhai cut open the fish and said, "This fish is not big. There are only a few internal organs in the belly. Just cut open the belly and take out the contents."

Lin Zhi pursed her lips and smiled: "Compared to you, I am an idiot and know nothing."

Li Yunhai came close to his face and said with a smile: "As long as you know how to kiss my face."

Lin Zhi smiled and kissed him on the face.

Zhang Shuwen came back from picking vegetables from the vegetable field outside. Seeing how loving the two of them were, she smiled happily and asked, "Yunhai, do all the leaders outside have to eat at home?"

Li Yunhai said he had scraped off the fish scales and said, "Mom, we bought a lot of vegetables. Just watch and cook them."

Outside the living room, Xiao Yuanzheng talked to Tang Laibin in a low voice: "Boss, what happened between you and Mr. Li? Mr. Li's two multi-billion projects are not put into our province. Is it because of the relationship with you? Is it related to what you said? Find a chance to explain to him and say everything is a misunderstanding."

Tang Laibin said solemnly: "Didn't I just say that? He ignored me! Even if I go to Beijin, no one would dare to deny me face like him, right?"

Xiao Yuan nodded in agreement and said: "Mr. Li is not a member of the system. He has no idea how noble your status is and how lofty your status is. He is just a businessman, and he only admires those who are better than him." People who make money. People like us are worthless in his eyes! Because we are not on the same path."

Tang Laibin snorted coldly: "You can't say that, we are leaders after all, right?"

Xiao Yuan smiled and said: "This is the difference in the way of thinking. If we look at it as an official, then we are indeed leaders. But in the eyes of ordinary people, we are public servants and serve the people. Just like stewardesses on the plane. Similarly, some people hold them very high and worship them as goddesses. But others feel that no matter how glamorous the flight attendants are, they only regard them as waiters. As for whether they regard themselves as managers on the plane or in the eyes of others A goddess, or just a waiter? It depends on what they think."

This is very level.

Tang Laibin rubbed his face and said, "He's here, I'll talk to him later. Comrade Xiao Yuan, please help and put in a good word."

Xiao Yuan nodded and said: "Of course. I care about these billions of investments more than anyone else. Xizhou is so poor that it took a lot of effort to create Li Yunhai. If we let him go, he will really become a sinner in Xizhou." ."

Tang Laibin sighed sadly.

Li Yunhai helped kill the fish, let his mother and Lin Zhi cook, and then returned to the living room.

Xiao Yuan handed him a cigarette and said with a smile: "Mr. Li, your house is well built. How much did it cost?"

Li Yunhai took the cigarette, took out his own cigarette, handed out a pack to everyone, and said with a smile: "I'm too lazy to offer cigarettes to everyone. Everyone can smoke what they want. My house is built and decorated, and the total is It cost more than 7 yuan.”

Tang Laibin was surprised: "Do you need so much money? My hometown was renovated and it only cost a few thousand yuan. However, the area is not large. Of course it cannot be compared with your mansion."

Xiao Yuan smiled and said: "It costs so much money. This house is large and well decorated. Building a house in the countryside and building a house in the city are actually about the same price. The current house price in Xizhou is 400 yuan per square meter. .”

Of course, they were not here to talk about family affairs. After chatting for a few words, Xiao Yuan got back to the business and talked about the two projects again.

"Mr. Li, our city has allocated such a large area of ​​land for you, and you have also promised to build a Sihai Center. You are a man of your word. This project cannot be given away just because you say it is not good! If we keep it, then If a large foundation pit is located in the city center, shouldn't it be laughed at?"

Li Yunhai knew that this matter would inevitably happen sooner or later, and he had to have a face-to-face talk, so he said: "Originally, I have always been very optimistic about this province and have been committed to developing it. But after I returned from traveling abroad, I felt different. I feel that the overall external environment will play a decisive role in the development of a company. I am a person who only wants to run a business. Wherever there is suitable soil for me, I will develop there."

Tang Laibin said awkwardly: "Mr. Li, the environment in our province is also very good. You see, you made your fortune in the province."

Li Yunhai blew out a smoke ring leisurely and said: "You must have heard the story of Meng's mother moving three times, right? Meng Ke's mother moved three times in order to choose a good environment to educate her children. It can be seen that environmental factors are extremely important Yes. If a place is too noisy and disturbed, scholars cannot study hard, and businessmen cannot concentrate on doing business, then it will be a disaster."

This statement couldn't be more clear, but it just didn't put what happened yesterday on the table.

Tang Laibin frowned and said, "Mr. Li, what happened yesterday was really a misunderstanding. I was confused for a moment and believed Qi Tiancheng's words. I later regretted it very much, regretting that I came to your company and said those bastard things!"

Li Yunhai thought to himself, if I don't work hard, will you regret it?If it were a weaker person, he would have died in your hands long ago.

Xiao Yuan smiled and said: "Mr. Li, look, Leader Tang has come to pay a visit in person. I think you should give him face and let go of the old grudges between us, right?"

Li Yunhai thought to himself, why should I give him face?Yesterday, he not only wanted to remove me from my position, but also wanted to disqualify Sihai Group from the Canton Fair.

When he was doing his best, why did he ever think of giving me any face?
Li Yunhai would definitely not agree. Not only would he not agree, he would also make a big fuss out of this matter. He would not only push Tang Laibin to the second line, so that he would never dare to embarrass Sihai Group again in the future, but he would also do Lin Zhenbang a big favor!
However, he wanted to think about it, but he would not say it or show it on his face. He immediately laughed and said: "Boss Xiao, you underestimate me, Mr. Li. I am not the kind of person with a small belly. What happened yesterday I didn't take it to heart at all. When I run a business, I only look at one issue, and that is whether it is beneficial to the development of the company. I think the environment in Hong Kong is more free, and my company originally had Hong Kong shares. I thought It is more suitable to invest in Xiangjiang."

Xiao Yuan and Tang Laibin looked at each other speechlessly.

Xiangjiang is an international financial center and a free port market with a developed economy, convenient import and export, and convenient bank settlement. It is indeed better than Xizhou in every aspect.

Li Yunhai's words were irrefutable.

Next, no matter what Xiao Yuan and Tang Laibin said, Li Yunhai replied with this sentence: Xiangjiang is more suitable for him.

He never mentioned what happened yesterday, as if he had really forgotten it.

After dinner, Li Yunhai said to Xiao Yuan: "Lin Zhi and I are going out to play, so we won't receive you. You are all leaders with many things to do, and it is not convenient for me to stay for a long time. See you another day!"

Xiao Yuan knew that there was no hope in the matter, so he had to say goodbye to Tang Laibin and others.

The car slowly drove away from Shiban Village.

When he arrived at the county boundary intersection, Tang Laibin's car suddenly stopped.

Xiao Yuan also told the driver to stop the car. When he saw Tang Laibin get out of the car, he also got out of the car and walked forward and asked, "Boss, what's wrong?"

Tang Laibin put his hands behind his back and said, "Comrade Xiao Yuan, Mr. Li won't let go. What should we do about this matter?"

Xiao Yuan thought for a while and said, "There is only one person in our province who can convince Mr. Li."

Tang Laibin was shocked and glanced at Xiao Yuan. He knew that the person Xiao Yuan was talking about was Lin Zhenbang.

He finally realized what a stupid mistake he had made.

He wanted to use Li Yunhai to attack Lin Zhenbang, but in the end, his own future was ruined.

Li Yunhai is just a businessman, but he holds billions of funds. The investment destination of this money will also determine Tang Laibin's career in life.

Tang Laibin sighed, waved his hands, got in the car and left.

Xiao Yuan shook his head helplessly and got into the car.

Several cars quickly disappeared into the distance on the road.

In the afternoon, Li Yunhai drove Lin Zhi to the county seat.

Tomorrow is the weekend, and Lin Zhi said she would pick up her eldest sister from school.

Li Yunfang transferred to the County No. [-] Middle School, which is also one of the best high schools in the Meishan area.

In more than a month, Li Yunfang will graduate from high school.

After school in the afternoon, Li Yunfang walked out of the school gate and saw her eldest brother and Lin Zhi. She ran over happily: "Brother, sister-in-law!"

Lin Zhi took her hand and said with a smile: "We will go home to play for two days and come to take you home. You are about to graduate, so I bought you a gift."

She opened her bag, took out the pen and watch she bought in Huacheng last time, and handed them to Li Yunfang.

Li Yunfang took it and shouted, "Thank you, sister-in-law. What if I didn't get into college? Wouldn't I be living up to the gift you gave me?"

Lin Zhi smiled and said, "You didn't go to college, so you came to work in the company and became my assistant, okay?"

Li Yunfang smiled sweetly: "Okay!"

Li Yunhai asked: "Are you tired from studying?"

Li Yunfang snorted: "It's tiring! But compared to being a farmer farming, this bit of hardship is nothing."

A young female teacher came out on a bicycle. She glanced at Li Yunfang and then at the Rolls Royce parked next to her. She was very surprised and shouted: "Li Yunfang!" "Teacher Liu!" Li Yunfang waved to the female teacher. .

Teacher Liu got off his bicycle, looked at Li Yunhai, and asked, "Who is this?"

Li Yunfang smiled and said, "This is my eldest brother."

Li Yunhai smiled at Teacher Liu: "Hello, I am Yunfang's eldest brother."

Teacher Liu seemed to have remembered something and said, "Is your name Li Yunhai? The one who sells computers."

Li Yunhai laughed and said, "Yes, I am the Li Yunhai who sells computers."

Teacher Liu stretched out his hand, shook Li Yunhai's hand gently, and said: "So Li Yunfang is your sister! My brother participated in the training class held by your company, rented your equipment, and went to a big city to open a store. I wrote The letter came back and said business was pretty good!”

Li Yunhai asked her sister's academic performance.What's your rank in school?Are there any chances of getting into college?
Teacher Liu glanced at Li Yunfang and said: "She is very smart, but her foundation is a little bit poor. It would be nice if you sent her to our school earlier. If you want to get into college, it depends on your individual performance. It's hard to say. "

Li Yunhai thought to himself, Teacher Liu put it politely, it seems that my sister is afraid of getting into college.

On the way home, Li Yunhai drove the car and asked his sister sitting in the back seat: "Which university do you want to apply for?"

Li Yunfang thought for a while and said with a smile: "Anyone is good, as long as there is a university."

Lin Zhi sat in the back row with her and said with a smile: "Not every university is good, you have to have your own goals. The top majors of each university are different. And the major is related to your future career, work, income."

After all, Li Yunfang is a country girl, and no one has ever told her anything about it. After hearing what Lin Zhi said, she couldn't help but feel at a loss. After a long time, she said, "I don't know what major is suitable for me."

Lin Zhi enlightened her: "What do you like? What do you like?"

Li Yunfang said in a low voice: "I like reading extracurricular books and listening to music. They have nothing to do with academics. I'm afraid my brother will scold me if I say it."

Lin Zhi asked her what books she usually read.

Li Yunfang said that they were all novels brought back by her elder brother.

Li Yunhai also likes to read novels. He will take home the books he has finished or the novels he finds meaningful to read to his sister.

Lin Zhi asked her which subjects she had good grades in?Then we analyze it and say that if you have good scores in liberal arts, then you should apply for liberal arts.If boys learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well, and if girls learn finance well, they will not be afraid of traveling all over the world.You can choose any one of these three majors: accounting, economics, and foreign languages.

Li Yunfang said with a guilty conscience, I'm afraid I won't be able to get into college!

Lin Zhi said there is no need to worry about not passing the exam, you have to set your ambition first.

Li Yunfang said, then I will take the foreign language test. I like learning English very much now. The teacher Liu just now is our English teacher. I really like the lessons she teaches.

Lin Zhi said that you should apply for the foreign language major at Xijiang University.

When sleeping at night, Lin Zhi discussed with Li Yunhai: "It may be difficult for Yunfang to get into college. We have to help her."

Li Yunhai was deeply surprised: "She is taking the exam, how can we help her?"

Lin Zhi chuckled and said, "You are usually so smart, how could you be stupid? Of course we can't help her take the exam, but we can help her get into a good university, such as Xijiang University."

Li Yunhai shook his head: "Are you talking about finding connections? Even if she is admitted to university, if her qualifications are too poor, she still won't be able to get in. I'm afraid it will be difficult for her to graduate. Xijiang University is a key university in the country! It is difficult to get into it. of!"

Lin Zhi used his arm as a pillow, lay beside him, and said, "Let's wait until we enter the university first. She should have no problem learning foreign languages."

Of course, Li Yunhai was willing to help his sister and asked, "How can I help? Who can I connect with?"

Lin Zhi chuckled and said, "You don't have to ask anyone for help. Didn't you say you want to donate a building to the university? Just donate your first building to Xijiang University. When donating, take Yunfang with you. You just need to follow If the university leaders mention it, they will naturally find a way to recruit Yunfang."

"Is this appropriate? No, no."

"Why not? Universities all have special recruitment quotas. If you don't use this quota, others will use it. In the past, those workers, peasants and soldiers college students, didn't they still contribute to society after graduation?"

"You mean, you don't need to take the college entrance examination? Directly recruit into the school?"

"That's right! Students with special talents in sports, literature, and competition can all be specially recruited."

"But Yunfang doesn't have any special skills!"

"You are stubborn, aren't you? You have to have a specialty? You donated money, this is Yunfang's specialty."

"I know I can do this. Does this count as encouraging others?"

"If you don't pull it out, the seedlings will die!"

"Is this really appropriate? If someone finds out in the future, my sister will not be able to hold her head up at school. Her current foreign language skills are not very good."

"Who knew she was a special recruit? There is still a quota for admission to the university! Otherwise, it would be better to say that she is a computer expert. Today, there are very few high school students who know computers. Yunfang studied unexpectedly for a few months. Definitely better than those computer students in school. Just listen to me! Don’t you want her to go to college? "

"Think about it! I want to dream about it."

"Then it's settled!"

"Stop talking about Yunfang. Come up here!"

"No, I want to fuck you."

"Oh!"

The next day is a rest day.

The third child is now in his first year of high school. He attends the worst high school in the county. His grades rank in the middle of the class. He disappears after school and goes out to play with his classmates.The fourth and fifth children are very sensible and help the family with work whenever they have time.

Li Yunhai used his home phone to call Lin Zhenbang in Beijin.

He said that he would take Linzhi to Beijin to visit his uncle in two days.

Lin Zhenbang asked, are you just here to see me?Or do you want to come to Beijin?

Li Yunhai smiled and said there was nothing wrong, he just went to see his uncle.

Lin Zhenbang was moved and said: "If it doesn't delay your work, then come over!"

Li Yunhai smiled and said: "Uncle, my company is on the right track now. It will be fine if I leave for a while."

He told what happened when Tang Laibin and others came to plead for mercy.

Lin Zhenbang certainly understood that when Li Yunhai said he wanted to withdraw capital, he was just retreating in order to make progress, and he did not really want to withdraw capital.

Li Yunhai meant to wait until Lin Zhenbang completed his studies before making a decision.

In this way, Sihai Group's billions of investments were retained by Lin Zhenbang, which might help Lin Zhenbang take a further step forward in the province.

Lin Zhenbang knew his good intentions and said, "Yunhai, you don't have to do this, it will delay the progress of your project."

Li Yunhai said: "Uncle, it's okay, there is no delay. The machine I ordered will not be shipped for another five months. I guess that Tang Laibin and the others are likely to come to you again. They can't convince me, so they can only ask you to make an offer. "

Lin Zhenbang said I understand.

Lin Zhi shouted crisply from the side: "Dad! Are you in Beijin?"

When Lin Zhenbang heard his daughter's voice, he smiled and said, "It's okay! I study in class every day."

After talking on the phone, Li Yunhai and Lin Zhi said, "Shall we go to Beijin tomorrow?"

Of course Lin Zhi agreed.

Li Yunhai was going to Beijin. He said he was making a special trip to visit Lin Zhenbang, but in fact he also wanted to attend to an important event along the way.

He and Professor Ni had agreed to acquire one or two copier factories in the country, and the first one they looked at was the Beijin People's Machinery Factory.

This factory is the earliest printing machinery factory established in my country. They independently develop and produce three types of offset printing machines: a dual-paper path web offset printing machine, a full-sheet double-sided printing offset printing machine that exceeds national standards, and a high-speed split two-color offset printing machine.At the 1984 Beijin International Printing Technology Exhibition, sales reached 6500 million yuan.Each of these machines can be sold for HK$500 million in Hong Kong.

However, this company's performance is very outstanding, and it will be very difficult for Li Yunhai to acquire it.

Regardless of whether he can succeed or not, Li Yunhai wants to give it a try. This is the leader in the domestic printing machine industry. Even if it cannot be acquired, it is still possible to talk about cooperation.

In addition, Beijin Copier Factory is also a good choice.

The two factories in Beijin brought together my country's most advanced printing machinery manufacturing technology at that time, and also had the most high-end printing machine industry talents in China at that time.

If Li Yunhai can successfully acquire these two factories, Sihai Group's pace of developing copiers will definitely accelerate.

He and Lin Zhi played at home for two days, and then set off back to the city on Monday morning, taking Li Yunfang to school.

Li Deming and his wife each brought a lot of chickens and ducks raised at home, as well as rice and vegetables grown at home, filling their trunks.

Li Yunhai said goodbye to his parents and got in the car.

Lin Zhi stuck her head out of the window and waved goodbye to Li Deming and his wife.

Zhang Shuwen told them to take care of themselves outside, not to quarrel, and to love each other.

Li Deming and his wife kept walking behind the car, watching the car gradually go away and disappear at the intersection of the dirt road at the entrance of the village, they were still looking at it reluctantly.

No matter how well his son does outside, he is still a child in the eyes of his parents, and they are always worried that he will be bullied or starve or freeze outside.

Carrying a car full of homesickness, Li Yunhai left his hometown again and embarked on a new journey.
