Life 1984

This day happens to be the weekend.

Xizhou, Li Yunhai's house, is bustling with activity.

Guo Wanhua came with her two children, Shen Xiulan came with her son, Lin Xiaofeng and his wife, Tang Yuxia and others were all present.

Several children, big and small, played with toys together, and the adults chatted.

After the epidemic, everything was in dire straits. Xizhou benefited from the donation from Sihai Group, and several disaster-stricken areas quickly returned to normal economic order.

After dinner, Li Yunhai took Guo Wanhua and her family to the villa reserved for her.

Chen Meilin fell in love with this place as soon as she arrived. The villa is large, spacious and beautiful, with luxurious decoration. It is nestled among green trees, next to the park, surrounded by rippling blue lake water, and the environment is quiet. Compared with the beachside villas in Repulse Bay, Xiangjiang, it is different. Flavor.

"Brother, is this the villa we live in?" Chen Meilin happily ran around to visit.

"This is your villa. You can come and stay at any time in the future." Li Yunhai turned on the lights in the whole house one by one and said, "It's all decorated, and the furniture and electrical appliances are complete. I decorated a separate room for Mei Lin. Princess room, go up and see if you like it."

Chen Meilin ran upstairs happily.

Guo Wanhua looked around and was filled with emotion when looking at this carefully decorated house.

It can be seen that Li Yunhai put a lot of thought into this house, and his affection for Guo Wanhua is reflected in every aspect.

Guo Wanhua stood in the master bedroom and smiled sweetly: "Yunhai, thank you. I like this house very much. We will live here this summer vacation."

Chen Meilin's princess room was next door. She heard her mother's words and shouted: "Mommy, it's great. I like living here."

Li Yunhai said: "You don't need to cook together, just come to my house to eat."

Guo Wanhua said that it’s fine to eat a few meals now and then, but there’s no point in eating every day? The two families have different daily routines. We have a nanny, so it is more convenient for us to start our own business. We will pack up tomorrow and invite you over for dinner in the evening.

Li Yunhai thought this was fine, so he stopped insisting.

"Brother, take me to the park to play!" Chen Meilin ran out and held Li Yunhai's hand.

Guo Wanhua called her son to wash up and go to bed, and said, "I won't take An An into the park at night. There is the Martyrs Cemetery over there. It's better to avoid things at night."

Li Yunhai said how could there be so much attention to detail? Since it is a martyrs cemetery, there is no need to be afraid. We often take our children to the park to play.

Guo Wanhua said she was tired and would play some other time.

Li Yunhai had no choice but to take Chen Meilin out and call Lin Zhi and Shen Xiulan, but they were already at the card table and didn't want to go out. He and Chen Meilin walked through the small gate and came to the park.

In the park on a summer night, there are noisy frogs and cicadas, and the fragrance of lotus flowers overflows.

Chen Meilin walked under the moonlight, humming a song, and looked around curiously.

Li Yunhai seemed to have returned to the first night outing in the park with Lin Zhi seven years ago. It was so similar to tonight.

Lin Zhi used to be just like Chen Meilin, happy and carefree, able to hum songs, and loved to laugh loudly.

When the girl turned into a young woman, the Lin Zhi who loved to sing and dance disappeared.

Li Yunhai walked around the park with Chen Meilin and went home to rest.

The next day, Li Yunhai and others had to go to work, while Guo Wanhua and Chen Meilin stayed at home to clean up the house.

Li Yunhai checked the production and delivery arrangements for lithography machines.

During this trip to Hong Kong, Li Yunhai won another 11 orders for lithography machines. In addition to the previous 30 domestic orders, a total of 41 lithography machines were sold, each worth 82 million yuan. Sihai Group pocketed billion. middle.

With these orders, Sihai Group has made profits on the photolithography machine project, and the scientific research institute has funds to invest in new research.

In addition to photolithography machines, nationally produced Sihai copiers have also been introduced to the market.

Without the word "Xerox", Sihai Copier has won more domestic markets, and its global sales have not declined.

Among the office equipment family, only computers have some technologies and parts, and they do not yet have complete independent intellectual property rights.

The development of X64 chips has entered the final sprint stage.

Professor Ni issued a military order. By the end of the year, that is, before 1992, a chip that is not inferior to Intel 486 must be produced.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Su Hong came in and reported: "Mr. Li, Liang Bonian from Anhui Province is here."

"Please." Li Yunhai thought to himself that the post-disaster reconstruction work had come to an end, and Liang Bonian was definitely not here to ask for money.

Liang Bonian laughed and walked in. He brought a few people with him.

"Hello, Mr. Li!" Liang Bonian shook hands with Li Yunhai and said, "We are here this time, firstly, to express our gratitude to Mr. Li, and secondly, to ask Mr. Li for a favor."

These words are exactly the same as last time.

Li Yunhai smiled and said: "Boss Liang is too polite. If you need me for anything, please ask."

Liang Bonian said: "That's it. Our province needs to purchase a batch of office equipment, and I would like to ask Mr. Li to help solve the problem."

Li Yunhai's eyes lit up and he thought, is he delivering an order to me?

Sihai Group had helped Liang Bonian before, and now it was sending an order to Li Yunhai, which could be considered a return favor.

Li Yunhai smiled and said: "Office equipment? That's my specialty! I wonder what equipment you want to purchase?"

Liang Bonian stretched out his hand, and a young man next to him immediately respectfully placed a piece of information in his hand. Liang Bonian took the materials and handed them to Li Yunhai.

Li Yunhai unfolded it and took a look, feeling ecstatic in his heart.

Anhui Province will purchase 2 computers, 2000 copiers, 1 printers, and 1000 typewriters this time.

This is a large order worth hundreds of millions of yuan!

Liang Bonian smiled and said: "Mr. Li, our province was hit by a disaster before. Thanks to your help, we managed to get through it smoothly. Now we need a lot of office equipment. I'm sorry to trouble you again. Please do me a favor. Help me." Will you settle this purchase order? In terms of quotation, please be sure to give us the biggest discount. We are a poor province, and every penny is earmarked for special use. We can save whatever we can."

He clearly wanted to repay Li Yunhai's kindness, but he made it sound as if Li Yunhai was doing him a great favor, which shows the high emotional intelligence of this person.

Of course Li Yunhai was overjoyed and immediately quoted the lowest price.

If Liang Bonian and the others were able to place orders here, they must have done corresponding market research before and knew the quotations of other brands on the market.

After they saw Li Yunhai's quotation, they knew that it was indeed the real price, so they stopped bargaining and happily agreed.

When talking about the payment method, Li Yunhai repeatedly emphasized that the company adopts a transaction method of payment first and delivery later. This is the company's regulations and no one can break it.

He was really worried, could Anhui Province pay for such a large purchase order?

After all, Anhui Province has just emerged from the epidemic.

But Li Yunhai was obviously overly worried.

How could such a big province have no money?

However, every money has a special purpose. Even Liang Bonian cannot misappropriate funds from other projects at will.

Liang Bonian said with a smile: "Mr. Li, please rest assured. This fund is a special fund allocated by the central government. It can only be used to purchase office equipment and realize office modernization. The money will be placed in the special account and we will sign it when we return. Appropriations.”

Li Yunhai laughed loudly and happily signed the contract with Liang Bonian.

Liang Bonian finished signing the letter coolly and said, "Mr. Li, let's prepare some wine for the evening. Would you like to ask Mr. Li to have a drink with us?"

"Okay! You are guests from afar, so I should be the one to treat you to today's meal."

"No, no, no, we have to treat you! We are very grateful for Mr. Li's help to our province, and we have been thinking about repaying the favor! I heard that Yuloudong in Xizhou is not bad, let's make an appointment there?"

"can."

Liang Bonian and Li Yunhai shook hands and left.

Li Yunhai called Zhao Jinping and Shen Xiulan over and told them to follow up on Liang Bonian's order.

Shen Xiulan said in surprise: "This order is huge! It's four to five hundred million!"

Li Yunhai said: "Good deeds are rewarded. It's not that we don't repay them. The time has not yet come. Liang Bonian gave us this order just to repay our kindness."

Shen Xiulan smiled and said: "You are still awesome. I stopped you at that time and didn't let you donate too much. Now it seems that your donation is correct and has won the reputation of the world!"

Li Yunhai said: "You are right, word of mouth is the most important thing! By assisting the disaster area, we are making friends all over the country. When the disaster area recovers, they will definitely give us something in return. The most important thing is , Sihai Group’s brand has taken off.”

This is what Shen Xiulan admires most about Li Yunhai, who can do business so well.

Anhui Province has made a good start, and other provinces and cities that have accepted Sihai Group's rescue have also shown sincerity.

Suzhou Province immediately sent people over and brought a purchase order for office equipment worth more than 400 million yuan.

Other provinces have also brought more or less orders to Sihai Group.

Sihai Group wins!

Received nearly 20 billion orders continuously!

Recently, major newspapers across the country have been full of news about the cooperation between Sihai Group and certain provinces and cities.

The province's purchase orders have been poached by Li Yunhai before, and there are no more purchase plans for the time being.

While Sihai Group hogged the limelight, Compaq remained extremely silent and did not donate a penny, as if this once-in-a-millennium flood had nothing to do with them.

Sometimes silence is also a gesture.

Finally, someone noticed the attitude of this foreign-funded company and wrote an article in the newspaper questioning Compaq. It wanted to make money from the Chinese but did not want to take any corporate responsibility. Helplessly speaking, this reporter's article did not stir up much waves.

Other media and Compaq all remained silent, did not forward or respond.

The topic naturally disappeared.

But this doubt is like a thorn planted in the hearts of every citizen who reads this article.

The company received so many orders at once, and Li Yunhai was busy receiving delegations from various provinces and cities, treating them to drinks, negotiating, and signing orders.

He is so busy that he spins like a top every day.

After finally having some leisure time on the weekend, Chen Meilin took me out to play again.

She was very interested in the great rivers and mountains of her motherland and made a travel plan.

Of course, it was impossible for Li Yunhai to accompany her throughout the entire journey, and he could only accompany her on a tour of surrounding scenic spots.

That night, Li Yunhai was dragged out by Chen Meilin to go shopping.

Lin Zhi, Shen Xiulan, Guo Wanhua and others have to take care of their children. They would rather play mahjong at home than go out shopping with their children and get hurt.

Li Yunhai and Chen Meilin went for a walk on the night market street.

Chen Meilin was very interested in Xizhou snacks. When she passed a stinky tofu stall, she raised her nose and kept fanning her nose with her hands: "What is it? It smells so bad!"

Li Yunhai smiled and said: "This is called stinky tofu. It smells bad but tastes delicious. Have you never eaten it?"

Chen Meilin pinched her nose with her hands and shook her head slightly: "I've never eaten it before. It's too smelly. Is this really edible?"

Li Yunhai took her hand to the stall and said, "Boss, please have two portions of stinky tofu."

Disposable foam bowls have become popular. Snack vendors have kept pace with the times and no longer use porcelain bowls. Instead, they use foam bowls, which can be thrown away after use without cleaning.

Chen Meilin's eyes widened as she watched the pieces of black tofu being put into the hot oil pan and fried.

"Brother, is this tofu? Why is it black? Is it made of black beans?"

This question really stumped Li Yunhai and he couldn't answer it.

The vendor prepared two bowls of stinky tofu and handed them to Li Yunhai.

Li Yunhai held it, placed it on a small table next to him, and invited Chen Meilin to sit down and eat.

"Try it, I guarantee you will like the taste." Li Yunhai took a piece and handed it to Chen Meilin's mouth.

Chen Meilin wrinkled her nose and took a bite reluctantly. She was immediately attracted by the fragrant, fresh and spicy taste.

"Wow, it's really delicious!" She took one bite of the stinky tofu on her chopsticks and said with a smile, "Brother, you are right, this stinky tofu tastes delicious."

Li Yunhai said: "This is a specialty of Xizhou. It is also available in other places, but it is not so authentic."

Chen Meilin no longer felt that the smell in the air was stinky, and she no longer pinched her nose, and finished the bowl of stinky tofu in one go.

After this try, Chen Meilin became more curious about other delicacies and more willing to try them.

Xizhou is the kingdom of snacks and a paradise for foodies.

After walking all the way, Chen Meilin ate to her full, held her belly in her hands, and said, "Brother, I can't walk anymore, I'm too full! Can you carry me on your back?"

Li Yunhai said in embarrassment: "This is on the street. You are such a big person, and you still need me to carry you? If someone sees you, aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"

Chen Meilin giggled, leaned on his back, and said: "I'm not afraid of others laughing at me! I just want to be comfortable. They can laugh if they want, what does that have to do with me? I don't live for them. .”

Li Yunhai had no choice but to carry her back.

"Brother, are there any KTVs or nightclubs in Xizhou? Let's go singing? It's fun, not tiring, and can help you digest your food!"

"Singing can help you digest food? This is the first time I've heard of it."

"Singing requires a lot of effort, okay? Go ahead!"

"OK then!"

Of course, Li Yunhai responded to Miss Chen's requests.

He took Chen Meilin to Jiangnan Club.

Liu Jie happened to be at the front desk, talking to the beautiful woman at the front desk. He turned around and saw Li Yunhai. He quickly left the front desk and walked over: "Brother, how busy are you always? I have made appointments with you several times, but you always said you are not free. That The little nurse has come to sing songs several times, and she will ask you questions every time she comes."

Li Yunhai coughed lightly: "Give me a small private room."

Liu Jie said: "Shall I arrange for a few girls to accompany you? Or should I call the nurse over?"

Li Yunhai said: "You didn't pay attention to the price? Didn't you see the beauty beside me?"

Liu Jie had noticed Chen Meilin a long time ago and said with a smile: "Is this Miss Chen? Long time no see! I saw her at the Canton Fair in Huacheng. She looks like a big girl!"

Chen Meilin played with her hair and said: "I don't look like a big girl, I am already a big girl! I'm already in college."

Liu Jie smiled and said: "Okay, okay, come on, come on, please come over here."

He personally arranged a private room and arranged for a beautiful woman to help select songs.

"Brother, let me tell you something." Liu Jie said, "Xiao Wen doesn't plan to work in your company. She wants to come out and help me manage this store."

"Okay! Just ask her to resign from the human resources department."

"Don't be angry."

"Why am I angry? She is not a highly skilled person, so I can't live without her?"

"There will be major personnel changes in the province in the year to come. Do you think Zhao Jingwen can stay in office?"

"This has nothing to do with me. I only do business and don't care about my future."

"Hey, aren't I discussing this with you? He has never been friendly to you. It will definitely be a good thing if he leaves."

"It's hard to say. If the Economic and Technological Development Zone can achieve results, then he is very likely to stay in office. Even if he cannot stay in office, it will not be a problem to go to Beijing."

"So I say, the key is whether the economic development zone can produce results. Have you heard about it? Zhao Jingwen and Huang Ying have been lobbying other entrepreneurs in your park, hoping that they can move there."

"Won't he go outside to attract investment? Why has he been guarding our park?"

"How can there be so much investment? Especially foreign investment, priority is given to developed coastal cities, and those who can look at Central and Western Prefectures are mostly attracted by good welfare and good policies. Or they are small businesses with serious pollution, and other places No, we can only move to the mainland. I heard that Compaq has strong opinions!"

"What can Compaq say?"

"Their company is about to go into production, but the supporting factories that the province promised them have not been implemented at all. This is why Zhao and Huang are anxious. Representatives of Compaq go to the province every day to ask for the implementation of supporting factories. Otherwise, production cannot be started.”

"Isn't that true? Compaq's factory in the Economic Development Zone is at most an assembly plant. Although it needs some supporting factories, it is not impossible to start production."

"The province previously promised to provide Compaq with packaging plants, printing plants and other supporting enterprises in the park. Now there are none of these enterprises! They can only cooperate with enterprises in Sihai Park. Compaq said that if it had known this, it would have been better to The factory is built in Sihai Park.”

Li Yunhai sighed lightly, a leader's decision-making, a single thought can affect the overall layout.

He also hopes that Zhao Jingwen, Huang Ying and others will leave as soon as possible and provide pragmatic leadership to take charge of the overall situation of the province.

Just as he was thinking about something, Li Yunhai's pager rang.

He went to the front desk to answer the phone.

The call was connected, and a deep bass voice came from the other side: "Hello, is this Comrade Li Yunhai?"

Li Yunhai knew it was Zhao Jingwen's voice as soon as he heard it, but he pretended not to know and asked: "I am Li Yunhai, who are you?"

"I am Zhao Jingwen."

"Oh, hello, Leader Zhao. I didn't know it was so late. What orders do you have from me?"

"I wonder if Mr. Li is free? Let's meet and talk."

"now?"

"May I?"

"Okay, I'll meet in Jiangnan. Do you know this KTV?"

"Jiangnan Club? I'll ask the driver to take me there."

"Okay, Leader Zhao, I'll wait for you in the box."

"see you later."

Li Yunhai put down the phone and thought that Zhao Jingwen came to me so late probably because of the construction of the park. But he didn't know what other stupid idea Zhao Jingwen had come up with? (End of chapter)
