King of Industry

  Chapter 760 Only dividends, no decision-making

  Walking in Jianghai County, Zhao Guoyang introduced to Bai Rou all kinds of Huaiyang-style and Lixiahe-style snacks on the street.

  Today is the twenty-fourth day of the twelfth lunar month, the wedding of "Monkey" and Miao Siqi has already been settled, and Zhang Yufang, Zhao Siyan and the others have already returned to SJ City.

  Only Bai Rou, because she made an agreement with Zhao Guoyang before, this time she made up her mind to spend the Spring Festival in Jianghai County.

  Since entering the 1990s, China has changed rapidly.

  In just one year, Jianghai County, a small county, is much more prosperous than last year. Of course, a metropolis like Songjiang changes every week and every month.

  Seeing such a conspicuous change, Zhao Guoyang felt a burst of admiration in his heart.

   "Hey, there seems to be a shed over there that sells snacks, should we go and have a look?" Bai Rou pointed to the shed in front of her curiously.

   Zhao Guoyang, who came back to his senses, let out a "huh" and said, "It's the long fish noodles with the characteristics of our Lixiahe area. Let's go, I'll take you to try it!"

  After listening to Zhao Guoyang's introduction, Bai Rou suddenly regained her spirits.

  Although there has always been a saying in China called "eat in Yangcheng", but only when it comes to pasta, Yangcheng is not the most prominent.

   Zhao Guoyang, who is familiar with the flavors of local delicacies, knows very well that the pasta in Yangcheng only has rice rolls and other foods, but there are no water noodles and dried noodles in Jiangnan Province.

  So when entertaining Bai Rou these days, Zhao Guoyang often took her to taste this special delicacy from his hometown, consciously or not.

  Suddenly saw this "Long Fish Noodle" today, Zhao Guoyang was naturally happy to invite Bai Rou to try it.

  After the two entered the shed, the proprietress who was idle hurried over to greet them.

  After Zhao Guoyang ordered two long fish noodles, the proprietress enthusiastically made them.

  Looking at Bai Rou who looked around curiously, Zhao Guoyang smiled and popularized the cooking method of the local "long fish noodles" to her.

   "Sister Bai, you may not know that the essence of this long fish noodles is not in the eel meat, but in its bones!"

  Listening to Zhao Guoyang's explanation, Bai Rou was taken aback: "Uh, what does this statement mean?"

Zhao Guoyang rubbed his chin and said, "When judging the quality of a shop's long fish noodles, the soup is the first one. And this soup is washed with fresh eel bones in the shop and added with various cooking ingredients. It can only be debugged by boiling for seven or eight hours at different temperatures."

   "So, the essence of long fish noodles is no longer in the fish, but in this soup!"

  The proprietress who was busy over there accidentally heard Zhao Guoyang's explanation, and responded with a giggle: "This gentleman is so right. Our family's long fish soup is made in this way."

"To tell you the truth, the secret recipe for making fish soup, someone paid tens of thousands of yuan to our family to buy it. But this is a craftsmanship passed down from my ancestors. I endured and endured it, but in the end I was not willing to sell it. ..."

   "Well, Madam Boss, you are right. You can never make money. If you lose this ancestral craftsmanship, you will lose your job..." Zhao Guoyang nodded as if he had realized something.

  Bai Rou next to her was obviously intrigued by what the proprietress and Zhao Guoyang said, and couldn't help sticking out her tongue and licking her lips.

   Not long after, the proprietress brought up two bowls of steaming long fish noodles.

  Zhao Guoyang took two pairs of chopsticks from the chopstick holder next to him, smiled and handed them to Bai Rou and said, "Okay, sister Bai, you can taste it now!"

  After taking the chopsticks, Bai Rou couldn't hold back her inner anticipation, and started to move directly.

  Of course, she didn't eat noodles for the first bite, but imitated Zhao Guoyang and took a sip of soup.

   "Wow, it's really delicious! Originally, I thought we Yangcheng people are the best at making soup, but I didn't expect that the soup here in Guoyang has a unique flavor, so delicious!"

   Zhao Guoyang didn't find it strange that Bai Rou had such a reaction.

  Before he was reborn, he had tasted delicacies from all over the country.

  It is also one of the four major cuisines. If you want to talk about Cantonese cuisine, it is really good at making soup, and the variety of dishes is also the most among the major cuisines.

  However, Su cuisine does not have the fine preparation, the use of techniques according to the aptitude, and the differences in the four seasons, especially the thick but not greasy soup.

   "Don't just drink the soup, the noodles are also very strong!"

  Looking at Bai Rou who was twitching her index finger, Zhao Guoyang smiled and reminded her.

   After eating a bowl of noodles, while Zhao Guoyang was still sipping tea, Bai Rou who was sitting opposite accidentally burped.

  Seeing this urban beauty showing such a true feeling, Zhao Guoyang couldn't help but smile.

   Bai Rou glared at him angrily, and said angrily: "What are you laughing at, it's really delicious!"

  In the cold winter of the twelfth lunar month, eating a bowl of steaming long fish noodles with mellow soup is indeed very comfortable.

  Bai Rou, who had kept her hands half in her sleeves before, finally let them out now.

  Zhao Guoyang picked up the teapot and added some water to her, and reminded her with a smile: "After eating the long fish noodles, you should drink more water to get rid of the fishy smell in your mouth."

  Bai Rou was stunned for a moment, then nodded lightly, and drank tea in a similar manner.

  The two chatted for a while, and Bai Rou remembered a few things about the "partner meeting" before.

She rested her hands on her cheeks, looked straight into Zhao Guoyang's eyes and said, "Guoyang, at the last meeting, you asked sister Yao Meng to buy shares in the three major companies under her at the same time, and planned to establish a fourth company. Isn't that a bit of a step?" Going too fast?"

  After hearing this, Zhao Guoyang smirked slightly: "No way? I think the pace is too slow!"

   "You should know that sister Yao Meng is not good at running a business. All she can do is use her fame to advertise and promote your company's products."

Bai Rou was a little puzzled and said: "But among the three companies under your umbrella, except for the jewelry of our 'Rongguang Co., Ltd', the other two have very few products and are not suitable for female stars to endorse. Bar."

   "You let sister Yao Meng buy shares in the three major companies under her control so quickly, but you can't really take advantage of her, right? Even, you may have to be restrained..."

  Zhao Guoyang was happy when he heard the words: "Sister Bai, you are wrong. It is certainly not a good match for a girl to endorse 'mine hoist' and 'excavator'."

   "But in the future, my 'SMS Company' and 'Xingtai International' will also launch avant-garde and popular products such as yachts and sleigh cars. At that time, Yao Meng's role can be brought into play!"

   Having said that, Zhao Guoyang paused for a moment before continuing to speak: "In addition, when Yao Meng injected capital into the three companies, I have also made it clear that he only has the right to dividends and no decision-making power."

  Looking at his first "partner" with a half-smile, Zhao Guoyang said with a smile: "So, this restraint thing will definitely not happen to Yao Meng."

   "I'm even more worried now. She invested several million to get the shares of each company. Will she regret it..."

  As soon as Zhao Guoyang finished speaking, Bai Rou quickly said: "Guoyang, don't worry about this, it will never happen."

  Bai Rou recalled and said: "Actually, when Yao Meng and I were negotiating the contract, I mentioned your entrepreneurial history many times."

   "After listening to my story about how you founded 'Rongguang Machinery Factory', 'Xingtai International Foreign Trade Company', and the acquisition of 'SMS Company', she has 100% confidence in your ability."

   "This time she took the initiative to propose a shareholding, in fact, a considerable part of the reason is because she believes in your ability to engage in business and technology."

  Bai Rou's explanation made Zhao Guoyang somewhat relieved.

   Regarding the matter of signing Yao Meng, a big star, with only a small signing fee, Zhao Guoyang actually accepted a lot of affection from the other party.

  So this time Yao Meng proposed to buy shares, Zhao Guoyang agreed without much consideration.

  Actually, although the several million invested by Yao Meng is not a small amount, for Zhao Guoyang, she is not the only one.

   After all, the performance of the three major sectors under him is very gratifying, and he can easily borrow tens of millions from the bank when he goes out casually.

   Moreover, with Zhao Guoyang's good relationship with the leaders of Ninghai City, Jianghai County, and even SJ City, the financial problem can hardly hinder him.

  Of course, for the three companies, the more liquidity the better.

   Now that Yao Meng has invested millions of dollars in capital, Zhao Guoyang is wondering whether he can continue to expand his business and start laying out the semiconductor integrated material industry in advance.

   As for the huge cake of "semiconductor industry", Zhao Guoyang already had an idea to get involved.

   Not only because of the importance of the semiconductor material industry in his previous life, he remembered deeply.

   More importantly, this industry has a linkage effect on the deployment of other major industrial sectors in the future.

  Semiconductor industry generally refers to the semiconductor equipment industry and semiconductor material industry.

  Huaxia has always been in a relatively backward state in this industry.

  Even in the era before Zhao Guoyang's rebirth, many domestic integrated circuit production lines still used imported materials.

  If you want to revitalize Huaxia industry, you have to get involved in the semiconductor industry.

  Sitting across from her, Bai Rou saw that Zhao Guoyang was gradually fascinated, so she asked suspiciously: "Guoyang, what are you thinking? Don't you think we owed sister Yao Meng to our endorsement contract?"

   Zhao Guoyang, who was awakened, let out an "ah" and waved his hands again and again: "No, no, Miss Bai, you misunderstood. Since it is a contract, it is a matter of willing to fight and willing to suffer."

   "Although the endorsement fee we gave before was not high, the contract also clearly stated that Ms. Yao Meng can get extra rewards as far as the performance reaches."

   "Although we can't tell how much this bonus will be, as long as our 'Rongguang Co., Ltd.' makes great strides all the way, Yao Meng will definitely earn more than signing a big contract in the future!"
