Life 1984

Chapter 621 Challenging the bottom line

Li Yunhai sat in the car and kept looking left and right, looking for Chen Meilin.

Chen Meilin did not bring a pager or mobile phone with her.

It would be more difficult to find her.

He suddenly thought of a place and ordered Ding Qiang to drive there.

Arrive at the bank of the Pearl River.

Li Yunhai asked Ding Qiang to drive along the river and then search carefully.

To his disappointment, he searched all over the riverside where he and Chen Meilin had taken a walk, but could not see Chen Meilin.

Guo Wanhua has been keeping in contact with him, but there is no news from her side.

"Yunhai, should I call the police? Nothing will happen to Meilin, right? It's late at night, and she's a girl outside, so it's easy for her to meet bad people."

Concern leads to chaos. When Guo Wanhua thought that something might happen to her daughter, she panicked and kept blaming herself.

Li Yunhai was very calm.

Based on his understanding of Chen Meilin, it would not be so easy for something to happen.

The social security in Huacheng during this period was indeed not very good, but it was not so scary that girls would be kidnapped as soon as they went out.

Li Yunhai comforted Guo Wanhua and continued to search for the places where they had played.

We also looked for places to eat together at the entrance to the movie theater and the park.

Still found nothing.

Chen Meilin seemed to have disappeared from this city and disappeared from the world.

By twelve o'clock in the evening, Li Yunhai also began to worry.

Suddenly, Guo Wanhua called: "Yunhai, there's no need to look for her! Meilin went home by herself. The servant called just now and said that the lady is back."

"Alas!" Li Yunhai let out a long breath.

What a willful little girl!

"It's good if you find her. Don't scold her. Don't say harsh words and don't irritate him anymore." Li Yunhai said, "It's best not to say anything and let her rest well. Human emotions are just that. It'll be fine after a few days. Don't aggravate her inner conflicts anymore."

"Yes, I understand." Guo Wanhua said, "Yunhai, thank you for your hard work. Please go home and rest quickly! We will attend the Canton Fair tomorrow."

"Okay. I won't go there." Li Yunhai told Ding Qiang to go home.

Su Hong and Liu Ruyi were not asleep yet, and they had just helped search nearby.

Everyone chatted for a few words and then went to rest.

Su Hong missed Li Yunhai a lot, but she wasn't summoned, and she didn't dare to look for him without permission. She struggled for a long time before falling asleep.

Let's talk about Guo Wanhua returning home.

After Chen Meilin returned home, she entered her room and closed the door.

Guo Wanhua knocked on her daughter's door gently and said softly: "Meilin, you should go to bed early."

Chen Meilin opened the door and faced her mother.

"I'm gone, are you nervous about me?" Chen Meilin asked.

"Of course! You are my biological daughter!" Guo Wanhua said with moist eyes, "Can I not care about you?"

"So, now you have tasted the feeling of losing me forever, right?" Chen Meilin suddenly asked.

"What do you mean?"

"I just want to tell you that anything I do can be forgiven by you instead of losing me forever."

Guo Wanhua was stunned.

indeed so!

She couldn't imagine how painful it would be for her to lose Chen Meilin forever one day.

"Then you can't threaten me with your life!" Guo Wanhua's pretty face sank slightly and she said, "You should be sensible. Your life is given to you by me, but it is your own after all. You live for yourself, Not for me or anyone else.”

"So? Even if you lose me, you still want to stop me from being with Brother Yunhai?"

"It's impossible for you to be together!" Guo Wanhua said with a bitter smile, "He has a wife, it's impossible for him to divorce!"

On this point, Guo Wanhua had already waded through muddy waters for her daughter a few years ago before she came to this conclusion.

She didn't want her daughter to fall into the quagmire and be unable to escape.

Why try something when you know it won't work?

Guo Wanhua cut off all contact with Li Yunhai because of her daughter's feelings.

If she had known that her daughter would fall madly in love with Li Yunhai, maybe if she had not separated from Li Yunhai and allowed her daughter to know that she was Li Yunhai's lover, things like this would not have happened today.

"I won't listen to you! You are right, I am responsible for my own life and do not need you to arrange it. I don't care whether he is married or not, or has a wife. I don't need to marry him, I just like him so much , love him forever. Can’t you?”

"Being a lover never ends well. Just like being an intern, if you never see the hope of becoming a regular employee, how long will you be able to persist? A person's life is only so long. If you waste too much time on it, your future will be ruined. It can only be a dream."

"What's wrong with dreams? What if this is a good dream you want?"

"Meilin, listen to mommy, I won't harm you."

"Forget it, I have nothing in common with you!"

Chen Meilin closed the door.

Guo Wanhua leaned against the door and slowly closed her eyes.

Every moment and every scene of love between her and Li Yunhai came to mind.

What if Mei Lin also fell in love with Li Yunhai?

Then the relationship between them, isn't it?

Guo Wanhua did not dare to think further.

She returned to the bedroom, picked up her cell phone, and wanted to call Li Yunhai, even if it was just to chat and listen to his voice.

But she thought about it and put down the phone again.

This is an unsolvable game.

She didn't know how to crack it.

The most helpless and painful person is Guo Wanhua.

On the one hand, she has to endure the endless longing for Li Yunhai and restrain herself from being affectionate with him.

On the other hand, she has to face and accept her daughter's incomprehension.

She lay on the bed and couldn't help crying softly.

At this moment, she couldn't hold on no matter what.

The phone rang.

Guo Wanhua picked up the phone, wiped her tears, stabilized her mood, and then answered the call.

Li Yunhai's gentle voice came: "Sister Guo, is Meilin okay?"

Guo Wanhua hummed: "It's okay, she's asleep."

Li Yunhai said: "What about you? Are you okay? You have sacrificed so much for Meilin, but she can't understand you. You must feel particularly uncomfortable."

He is indeed a confidant!

Li Yunhai could guess what Guo Wanhua was thinking.

"Yunhai, I feel that I have failed very much. As my parents' daughter, I have never taken care of them or been filial to them. I have failed. As Chen Wanzhao's wife, I have failed. As your lover, I have failed. It was also a failure. As Mei Lin’s mother, I also failed.”

"Sister Guo, as long as you live your life well, don't feel so much guilt. You don't owe anyone, and you haven't sorry to anyone."

The two chatted for a long time.

After Li Yunhai's enlightenment, Guo Wanhua's mood gradually improved.

The next day is the first day of the Canton Fair.

The transaction volume of the Canton Fair can only be regarded as the icing on the cake for the current Sihai Group. It no longer relies mainly on this to generate revenue as before.

There are many electronics expos and trade fairs held every year in various countries around the world.

Sihai Group has established a professional exhibition team that travels to various trade fairs, opening up the global market and building brand reputation.

Oriental Intel, this name does not have a good reputation for Sihai Group, it just represents some people's views on Sihai Group.

The business empire built by Li Yunhai is far larger than Intel.

This morning, Li Yunhai and others arrived at the exhibition venue.

Chen Meilin is like a person who has nothing to do, as if what happened yesterday never happened, laughs when she should laugh, and sells when she needs to sell.

Even if there is nothing on the ground, life must go on.

Li Yunhai also wisely did not mention what happened last night.

Meihua Mobile has a dedicated booth.

Sihai Technology is a joint venture with a state-owned enterprise, so of course it can get a separate booth.

Meihua mobile phone is the first mobile phone to participate in the Canton Fair and has attracted a lot of attention.

Chen Hong is now in charge of the mobile phone business and will also come this time.

Li Yunhai did not let Chen Hong live in Zhiyuan. Because Su Hong was by his side, he didn't want the two women to crash.

The first day of opening.

Li Yunhai first went to Sihai Group's booth to preside over the overall situation.

In fact, there is no need for him to take care of anything. The exhibition team has already had a mature mechanism for publicity, negotiation, and contract signing, all in one go.

At nine o'clock, the doors of the Canton Fair opened, and foreign businessmen poured into the venue like a tide.

Sihai Group's exhibition hall was immediately crowded with foreign businessmen.

Looking around the world, the only country in the third world that can produce lithography machines, chips, graphics cards, motherboards, memory and other products is my country's Sihai Group.

Many businessmen who come to the Canton Fair are from third world countries and regions.

They also need office equipment domestically, and the best products they can find with high quality and low price are the products of Sihai Group.

Over the past few years, Sihai Group has participated in two Canton Fairs every year and accumulated a large number of foreign customers.

Some customers come every year. Each time they come, they don't order too many products. Some customers only take a sample back and call us to place an order when needed.

Chen Meilin is indeed a lucky star. She won the first order of this Canton Fair.

A foreign businessman purchased products such as computers and printers, with an order amount of US$3000 million.

This is a good beginning.

After signing the contract, Chen Meilin said to Li Yunhai: "Brother, am I good?"

She really needs Li Yunhai's approval.

Li Yunhai said: "Awesome! Mei Lin is the best."

Chen Meilin smiled sweetly, leaned over and asked in a low voice: "Then, who is better, me or my mommy?"

Li Yunhai was startled, thinking that he must find an opportunity to explain this matter to her, otherwise it would cause even greater trouble.

"How do you compare to Mommy?"

"I'm going to compete with her! I know you like her."

"hehe!"

Li Yunhai smiled awkwardly: "Go to work quickly! I'll go to the mobile phone booth to have a look."

He came to the mobile phone showroom.

Chen Hong, Sun Lu and others were busy.

Compared with computers, mobile phones are closer to people's lives.

Businessmen who can go abroad generally have an urgent need for mobile phones.

Even if they don't buy it, when they see such a beautiful mobile phone, foreign businessmen will come in to take a look and try it out.

Therefore, the mobile phone exhibition hall was crowded with people.

Chen Hong and others were busy recommending products to merchants.

Because the mobile phone is small and there are many samples on display, it needs to be watched by people to prevent others from fishing in troubled waters.

When setting up the exhibition in the past two days, Li Yunhai specially told Chen Hong and the others that there were not many products in the mobile phone exhibition hall, so they should bring them over at work every day and take them back to the hotel after get off work.

Although the security of the Canton Fair is in place, it is inevitable that some people will take risks.

Mobile phones are expensive and small. You can earn hundreds of thousands just by taking a bag of them back. Such temptation cannot withstand the test of human nature.

Li Yunhai saw that they were all busy, so he stood aside and watched.

Buying a mobile phone is no better than buying a computer.

Computers can be used in different countries and regions, the only difference may be the plug.

But mobile phones are different.

There is no mobile phone number card yet, and the phone has to write the number into it before it can be used.

This involves more regulations and permission for mobile phones to access the network.

When selling mobile phones, the salesperson will first ask what city the customer is located in and whether the corresponding mobile network service has been opened.

Chen Hong had noticed Li Yunhai for a long time and came over after discussing business.

"Hello, Mr. Li!" Chen Hongyan said with a smile, "The mobile phones are selling very well. We have sold more than a dozen units."

"More than a dozen units?" Li Yunhai laughed dumbly, "Please, we are not here to engage in retail sales. We are direct sales from manufacturers. What we want are orders! A large number of large orders!"

Chen Hong said: "I know, take your time. It's just the beginning. You can't eat it and become a big fat man in one bite, right?"

She glanced at Sun Lu and said, "That shareholder representative from the state-owned assets side is quite powerful."

Li Yunhai asked: "How powerful is it?"

Chen Hong said: "She knows the languages ​​​​of several countries. I can't even understand some of the words she says."

Li Yunhai didn't know Sun Lu well. Hearing this, he said, "Really? I underestimated her!"

Chen Hong said: "She is also very good at sales. Although they are all retail, she sells the most."

Li Yunhai nodded, thinking that the Li family first sent Wang Chengwang, an ineffective person, but Wang Chengwang was too uneducated and incompetent, and eventually became a great person, so he sent Sun Lu.

The Sun Lucen family has some abilities, otherwise they would not send a woman like her to take over the power here.

At this time, another foreign businessman came in, and Chen Hong stepped forward to receive them.

Chen Hong only speaks English, and he only gradually became proficient in this foreign language after following Li Yunhai.

When doing foreign trade, the more languages ​​you know, the better.

Because the language is different in every country.

Not every foreigner speaks fluent English.

The English spoken by many foreigners is worse and worse than that spoken by Chinese people.

Li Yunhai has met many such foreign businessmen, and they speak poor English.

At this time, if the salesperson understands the native language of the foreign businessman, he can communicate fluently.

Among the Sihai Group, Shen Xiulan is the most proficient in several foreign languages.

This is also the reason why Shen Xiulan places many orders.

Some foreign businessmen whose English is not good can only communicate with her and then place orders.

Sun Lu took some time off and came over to say hello to Li Yunhai.

"Mr. Li, business is not good!" Sun Lu shook his head.

For the same business, Chen Hong said the business was very good, but Sun Lu said it was not.

"It's okay, take your time." Li Yunhai said, "For a new product, so many people came to see and buy it just after it was launched, which means that our product has no problems and is in line with the market positioning."

Sun Lu said: "I think the announcement is not enough. Mr. Li, have you ever considered replacing Gong Li?"

"Replace Gong Li? She is just a spokesperson, and her image and reputation are worthy of her current price. Why should she be replaced? I can't understand."

"Gongli is not suitable for our brand image." Sun Lu said bluntly.

Li Yunhai said: "I think she is suitable. She has a majestic appearance and a tall figure, which matches our mobile phone temperament very well."

"Mr. Li, the mobile phone ads she shot did not bring us much sales. This is the fact."

"The product has just been launched, and the sales volume is very good. Now all our production capacity is used, and the supply is still in short supply! Doesn't this have the function of consolidating profits?"

"Mr. Li, I don't know why you have to use this woman?"

"This woman? What do you mean?"

"Me! Mr. Li, let's speak frankly. Wang Chengwang is in jail because of Gong Li. We all don't hope that Gong Li can still be the spokesperson of Sihai Group. There are so many female stars at home and abroad. It's hard to find just one. No worse than her. Why are you reluctant to change it?"

"This is not a question of whether to replace her or not. Gong Li is a very good person and is dedicated to her work. We have no reason to replace her."

Sun Lu suddenly showed a strange smile: "Mr. Li, I heard Wang Chengwang say that you and Gong Li were having an affair? I didn't believe it before, but now that you are so insistent on using her, is this true? Is she really? Your lover?"

Li Yunhai's face darkened and he said: "Miss Sun, don't push yourself too far! I respect you because you are the shareholder representative of the state-owned assets, but you have repeatedly challenged my bottom line!"

Sun Lu pursed her lips and said: "Mr. Li, are you angry? When you were angry, you could send Wang Chengwang to prison. Now that you are angry again, are you planning to drive me away too? If you don't like it, If others interfere in the company's affairs, you should not have agreed to cooperate with the state-owned assets in the first place."

"Cooperation is cooperation, don't slander others. First of all, Wang Chengwang suffered the consequences, which he brought on himself and has nothing to do with me. Secondly, I never thought of driving you away unless you can't do it on your own! Also, I cooperate with state-owned assets , I have made it clear a long time ago that I am in charge of the operation and production of Sihai Technology, and state-owned assets have no right to interfere."

"Mr. Li, isn't she just a woman? Gong Li is gone, and there are new ones coming. But by doing this, you can please the Li family in the capital."

"Please?" Li Yunhai smiled instead of getting angry, "Why should I please them? I don't owe them anything."

"Mr. Li, I think you don't know how powerful the Li family is!"

"No matter how powerful he is, it has nothing to do with me. I am a business. As long as my products can be sold."

"In any country, if an enterprise reaches a certain level, it is impossible to decouple it from politics. Mr. Li, if you don't even understand this truth, then Sihai Group's future development will be very limited."

"I understand what you are saying. But I also want to tell you a truth: The Li family is very powerful, but they cannot cover the sky with one hand, nor can they represent the politics you are talking about."

The two fought tit-for-tat for a long time, but neither could convince the other.

Sun Lu said: "Mr. Li, replacing Gong Li is not just my request. Please consider it seriously! Otherwise, the consequences will be very serious!"

Li Yunhai said calmly: "I don't have to think about it, I can tell you now. Gong Li and I signed a long-term contract, and it will not be changed for more than ten years!" (End of Chapter)
